Chapter 504 [The Actor and Iron Slag, the Essence of the Dynasty]

The Raptors selected center Rafael Aruyu for the eighth place, Guo Xu has no impression of this person, I don't know if he has played in the NBA, and the Raptors management is simply blind.

What's even more amazing is that the SuperSonics selected small forward Luke Jackson for the ninth time, a white player with a height of 201cm and a weight of 98 kilograms. He was born on November 6, 81, older than Guo Xu, and completed his university studies, so he has no potential to tap at a glance.

is also a swing man, the supersonic did not choose Iguodala, this is not blind, scouts are simply ball blind. The team already has shooting forwards Rashad Lewis and Radmanovic on the team, so what's the use of this guy?

Luke certainly has merit, he was a veritable star player during his college years. He's the kind of typical white player who knows everything, has a range, but has average physicality, similar to Jacobson, who was drafted by the Suns in 2003.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Luke was drafted by the Cavaliers and played a total of 73 games in his career, with constant injuries.

The 10th place of the 76ers selected swingman Andre Iguodala, Guo Xu was still playing with the Warriors when he was reborn, with amazing physical fitness, fast speed, strong strength, and bounce is the king of dunk levels.

When Iguodala isn't playing basketball, he can also practice track and field, and his best high jump time is 210cm. In addition to the high jump, he also practiced the long jump, and was the second in the long jump in Illinois when he was a sophomore in high school.

Iguodala fell to this pick because of his rough technique and poor shooting, and he was defined by scouts as a super-strong blue-collar with strong muscles that affected his shooting touch. In his two years in college, he appeared in 62 games, starting 34 of them, averaging 9.6 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.53 steals per game.

The Cavaliers selected blue-collar center Andris Biedlings for the 11th place.

The drafts of the later teams have not changed much, and the players are not very popular, and they are all selected after trials, and there are few cases of cutting off beards.

The Celtics, who lacked an interior lineman, selected high school center Al Jefferson, and with the 25th pick, they also drafted Tony Allen, a famous defensive player from his previous life, 193CM guard.

The Hawks drafted Josh Smith in exchange for draft picks, the Kings drafted Kevin Martin, who played against poor quarterback, and the Lakers drafted Sasha Vujacic, who is famous for his relationship with Sharapova.

Megan, who watched the draft process, yawned and could only tease the kitten. Finally, it was the Suns' turn to make a choice in the 30th, and Brian selected Brazilian interior Anderson Vallejo according to Guo Xu's request.

This is the best choice for the Suns, it doesn't matter if Vallejo doesn't speak English well enough, the team has his buddy Neine, who can make a cameo as a translator, and he has practiced English very well in the past two years.

Vallejo is a big man with fair skin and a grin. I don't know why Brazil is rich in such athletes, and there are a bunch of Brazilian stars in football who like to giggle with their teeth bared.

Vallejo and Nene have represented the Brazilian national team at international level, winning the Pan American Games basketball title in 2003.

In the 2000-01 season, Vallejo played in the Brazilian domestic league, averaging 17.7 points, 9.7 rebounds and 3 blocks per game as the most valuable player of the Brazilian league.

In the 2003-04 season, he made 27 appearances in the ACB League, averaging 7.5 points and 4.4 rebounds per game, helping Barcelona win the ACB title again. He played 18 games in the Europa League, averaging 8.8 points and 5.2 rebounds per game in 13 regular season games.

Vallejo is not eye-catching as a blue-collar worker, and he is 22 years old, so he naturally can't get high. But Guo Xu is very optimistic about him, he was a celebrity in the NBA in his previous life. Because he is good at faking falls in the game and creating offensive fouls of opponents, he is nicknamed "Brazilian actor" by fans.

In his previous life, the knights made a lot of money from Vallejo's magic trade. He belongs to the energetic defensive interior line, good at defensive blocking and pick-and-roll, the disadvantage is that he is a bit brittle, frequent injuries late in his career, and he has an average offense, occasionally shows off his mid-range shot, has no low-post ability, and relies on air cuts and offensive rebounds for scoring.

Vallejo was selected to the All-Defensive Second Team in the 2009-10 season, and only one selection was a bit underrated, and the Cavaliers, whether it was "Big Z" Ilgoskas, Gooden, or O'Neal at the end of his career, were slow to move, and he needed to make up for the leaks.

The Suns' signing of Vallejo at the end of the first round is a great deal, and he can certainly make a difference.

After the team wins the championship, the value of the players in the team will increase, and the management has calculated very clearly that when the rookie contract expires, Nene and the Stoudamire Suns will definitely only have one, and the interior needs a replacement.

The Suns' interior roster is super strong right now, but they can't be together for long. Even blue-collar center Diop could be poached in the future, as he proved in the playoffs that he can defend O'Neal alone. Vallejo is a great addition, with more range defensively and a much lower salary than Diop for four years as a rookie.

The Suns' second-round pick went equally well, selecting swingman Trevor Ariza at No. 42 overall.

Guo Xu's alternate is the Greek two-way defender Vasris-Spanolys, this guy seems to be okay as a sixth man, very sharp in his breakthroughs, and good at attacking with the ball. In the 2006 World Championships in the previous life, the American Dream Team couldn't guard Span, and it was okay to take turns to defend a few people.

Span's shortcomings are positioning, 193CM point guard, the defensive end is very disadvantageous, he is not good at shooting three-pointers, and he must hold the ball to play powerful. In the NBA, unless you meet a coach who is willing to train him and let him play with the ball and offense as a sixth man, he can't play.

In his previous life, Spann was unlucky, and he didn't land in the NBA until 2006, and then was abolished by Van Gundy......

Ariza who is 203CM tall and weighs 98 kg is the first choice, and Chinese fans in his previous life will certainly be no stranger to this person, who joined the Rockets twice and won the 2009 championship with the Lakers. In 2018, he lived up to the name of "iron slag" in the Western Conference Finals, shooting 0 of 12 and 0 of 9 three-pointers, killing the Rockets alive.

Most of the time his shooting is iron-clad, but Ariza has always been active in the league and relies on excellent defense.

In his previous life, Ariza had always been an underrated player, he did not have the ability and aura of a star, but he was a very practical player, with a height and arm span that allowed him to defend anyone on the outside, a certain three-point shooting ability, and the ability to accelerate offense and counterattack, and occasionally make cameo appearances as a power forward.

In the 2013-14 season at the peak of the Wizards, he averaged 35.4 minutes per game, 14.4 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.6 steals, shooting 45.6% from the field, 40.7% from three-point range and 77.2% from the free throw line.

Ariza was never named to the All-Defensive Team because there were too many forwards in the league who defended well. In the early days, Garnett, Artest, Battier, James, and then Leonard, George, etc., it was never the turn of the unknown Ariza.

Guo Xu's proposal to choose Ariza has some selfish intentions, the team must have offensive teammates, and there must be defensive ones, if the team is all offensive players, he must share a lot of balls, so how can he play luxury data?

At the end of the draft, Guo Xu called Brian and said with a smile: "Brian, the selection is beautiful, I am 99% sure that I will lead the team to win the championship in the new season, and I deliberately removed the remaining 1%, which is not so proud." ”

Brian's heart blossomed. "If you like it, I fully believe in your abilities."

"Wait and see next season when we blow up the league."

After the draft, Guo Xu doesn't have to worry about the depth of the Sun's lineup in the short term, just fine-tune it. Even if there are no great people in the free market, the Suns are still a super strong team.

The Suns have completely retained the core of last season, and with the addition of fresh blood, they already have the foundation to build a dynasty. (https:)
