Although they had already received data from other teams, they were taken aback when the Mavericks' trainers measured Gobert's height and arm span themselves.

Gobert is 2.14 meters tall barefoot and 2.18 meters tall in shoes, which is the highest among any player who signed up for the draft. And his terrifying arm span of 2.35 meters is unmatched.

When Gobert opened his arms and was measured by the trainer, Cuban felt that it was not the player who was horizontally in front of him, it was simply a high wall!

"He's a monster, Mark! I think we really should go after him with all our might! Just looking at Gobert's physical stats, Carlisle seems to be drooling. Last season, the 2.11-meter-tall Murphy was already an important height for the Mavericks' interior defense, and if they had an interior line with a height of 2.18 meters and an arm span of more than 2.3 meters last season, then whether the Spurs could win or not was another matter.

"Don't worry Rick, the tryout has just begun!" Cuban has also taken a keen interest in the little-known French center, Antetokounmpo from Greece? He might not be as good as Gobert!

After that, the trial came to the stage of various dynamic tests. Since the Mavericks try out players who are predicted to be drafted in the middle or late of the first round, most of the numbers aren't very impressive.

Before Gobert, there was only a white insider, Steven. Adams's data made a slight impression on the Cuban.

The last man to be tested was Gobert, who, as a white insider, was able to reach a height of 63.5 centimeters for the vertical bounce and 73.7 centimeters for the run-up jump. These two data prove that he is indeed a white interior who can run and jump.

The last test, standing and touching height. People know that Gobert is tall and has long arms, but the statistic of his standing height still shocked the scene.

"Stand...... Standing touch height, 297 cm! When the Dallas Mavericks trainer saw Gobert's stats, he thought he was dazzled. Because he has worked in the Mavericks for nearly ten years and has dealt with countless professional players, he has never seen anyone who can reach a standing height of 297 centimeters!

"How much!?" Carlisle was so dumbfounded that he asked aloud again.

"297 cm! 9 shaku 7! "This time, the trainer used two different units to express the accuracy of the data.

"297 centimeters...... Isn't this data scary? "Although Yiyang is a professional footballer, he is not sensitive to data. What is the concept of 297 cm, Yiyang is completely unclear.

"I started playing professional basketball in 1984 and started my coaching career in 2001! Over the years, I've never heard of anyone who has been able to reach a standing touch height of 297 cm! That said, it's very likely to be the highest record for the training camp! To put it bluntly, even if Gobert doesn't jump, just straightens his arms, and is only 12 centimeters away from the basket! ”

Carlisle explained this, and Yiyang also had an intuitive understanding of the number 297 centimeters. He originally just thought that Gobert was playing well, but he didn't expect that this guy's physical condition was so good!

After a series of physical tests, Gobert has conquered everyone. But the tall man wasn't complacent, as all the teams he had tried out before had this look of surprise after looking at his stats.

At the end of the trial, Carlisle naturally arranged confrontational training for the players. Only on the field of simulated actual combat can the true value of a player be reflected.

Although it was only a tryout, the intensity of this confrontational training was not low, because now every rookie has to rely on the performance of the tryout to earn himself a chance to play in the league. This is a war of survival, so everyone is also playing with real knives and guns.

The two opposite Gobert, one is Steven, who seems to be elegant but is actually wild. Adams. The other is Canadian center Kelly Olynyk, who was selected to this year's All-American First Team and averaged 17.3 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game in the NCAA last season. Both of these guys were predicted to be drafted in the middle of the first round in the lottery, and they are more well-known than Gobert in terms of popularity. The two strong opponents that the Mavericks arranged for Gobert can be described as quite golden.

As soon as the competition began, Gobert's weight of just 107 kilograms immediately put him in a difficult position.

On the offensive end, Gobert was pushed to the San by Adams and Olynyk, and he couldn't even do the most basic position.

And with Gobert on the side of Serbian rookie Nemanja. Nedovic, on the other hand, is an offensive point guard who is not good at feeding the ball to the big man.

The game went on for several minutes, and Gobert still didn't do anything. Except for being overturned again and again by Adams and Olynyk, there is nothing that can attract attention.

Cuban had begun to shake his head silently, but Carlisle was still clenched into fists. He knew that Gobert's abilities were more than that. This guy just hasn't gotten used to the rhythm of the game yet.

After a few minutes of struggles on the offensive end, Cuban seemed to be running out of patience.

"He's got great physicality, but I don't think he's ready for the NBA." Cuban whispered a verdict to Gobert underneath, but Yiyang and Carlisle didn't seem to agree.

Seeing Cuban shake his head repeatedly, Gobert also knew that he had to put in a better performance.

"No, he's not good at offense!" Yiyang's eyes are still on the court, and he has not forgotten the strength of Gobert who tried to defend himself when playing in France.

"Look at it again, Mark, the game has just begun, hasn't it?"

Seeing Carlisle say the same, Cuban looked intently again. What kind of charm does this Frenchman have that can make Yiyang and Carlisle speak for him?

Nedovic's three-pointer hit the iron again, and it seems that the guy hasn't adapted to the NBA's length beyond the three-point line. Adams grabbed the rebound and handed it to his guard to push the offense.

This time, too, he wanted to score on the head of the young-looking Frenchman. So, Adams played a block with his own guard, and after blocking and dismantling, he cut in and prepared to catch the ball and dunk!

Adams' plan was successful, he had very good timing to cut inside and also received passes from defenders. Now, all Adams has to do is wreak havoc on the basket in front of Cuban and Yiyang!

Just as Adams jumped up and was about to exert his strength, Gobert, who was originally defending by Olynyk's side, jumped out! The speed with which he moved sideways made Kuban's eyes light up!

The two elders faced off in the air, and Gobert relied on his absolute height advantage to fly the basketball fan in Adams' hand and slammed the dunk with a block!

"Wow, do you see? It's a height that no one can fly! This time, Cuban finally showed an approving look.

After that, Gobert's efforts on the defensive end gave Cuban a sense of the Frenchman's charm. His desire to get stronger and win is as unique as his reach and striking touch.

No matter who the opponent is, whether he is tall, short, fat or thin, strong or strong, Gobert will bravely rise to the occasion and try to change the game with defense. He never seems to be slow down defensively, which is very valuable among young players.

"Do you know where this guy's real value is?" Seeing that Gobert's performance was getting better, Carlisle also came to Cuban's side and chatted with him.

"That's how he can dominate the game as a role player! It's like...... Just like Tyson. Chandler! Maybe he's not good at attacking and his technique is rough. He can't hand over 20+10 stats to you every game, and he can't become an MVP. But there are players who are born to defend! And defense can win the game! ”

"I'm already feeling the power of that kid, Rick. Don't worry, I accept your suggestion. In the draft, I'll focus on this guy. But I still have to say that if Antetokounmpo falls, I will not hesitate to choose the Greeks first! ”

"As you wish, boss!" Carlisle spread his hands, and it would be great if the Mavericks could have an interior guardian......

In the blink of an eye, the 24-minute confrontational training came to an end. Gobert hit just one of three shots and 1 of two free throws to score a worthy 3-pointer. But his 8 rebounds and 4 blocks, as well as the pictures of blocking the opponent's offense again and again, still made Carlisle, Yiyang and Cuban play "A+" for him.

After the tryout, everyone else came down with their manager to ask about Cuban. And what about Gobert? This guy may be dissatisfied with his free throw performance, and actually picked up the basketball himself and practiced free throws!

Although it was only a small detail, Gobert's actions had a great impact on Yiyang. It's not bad to be on a team with this kind of guy who wants to rush up at any time!

"You're so desperate to practice?"

Gobert was startled when he heard someone talking to him suddenly. He turned his head and saw that it was Yiyang.

"If you don't play well in the game, you will vent your excess energy into training." Gobert replied and continued to shoot free throws. However, in Yiyang's opinion, this guy's shooting action is really a big problem.

"Do you have any thoughts on joining the Mavericks?"

"The experts predicted that I would be selected with the 17th to 22nd picks, and I don't think I would fall out of that range."

Yiyang smiled, this guy is really confident!

"I didn't ask you about the draft, I mean, what do you think about joining the Mavericks?"

Yiyang asked again, and Gobert also stopped what he was doing and thought about it seriously.

"No matter where I am, I will do my best. I just like to win and shut people up. As long as you can do both, it's the same anywhere you play. After all, so far, I have no feelings for American cities. ”

The simple and fanatical pursuit of victory and respect, isn't this me?

Yiyang nodded, and he didn't continue to talk to Goebel without much talk. He just hopes that four days later at the Barclays Center night in Brooklyn, the Mavericks won't be left empty-handed like they used to be.
