Alexander thought about it for a moment and didn't quite listen to Dawson: "It's been a big year for point guards, there are a lot of good point guards, and we have a first-round pick to pick a good point guard to pass to Tracy and Yao. ”

Dawson hesitated to object: "We have a draft pick, but with our record this year, it's unlikely to be a lottery pick. A couple of excellent point guards Chris. Paul, Delon. Williams and Raymond. Felden are all in the top 10 and we're going to have a hard time getting them. ”

Alexander said: "Why don't we pick the Chinese point guard from the Wolverine? He's passing very good and he should have some tacit understanding with our big Chinese guys. ”

Dawson shook his head in disagreement: "You're talking about Sun Yue of the University of Michigan, his body is too thin, although his stats are still relatively bright so far, but as a point guard, I don't think his strength and potential are worthy of a first-round pick." ”

Alexander presented Dawson with a report on the team's operations: "Since we drafted Yao Ming, our team's market value and earnings have doubled, and the Chinese market is an inexhaustible treasury, and all the commercial value of this Chinese point guard is worth risking with a first-round pick." ”

Although many Rockets fans call Alexander, who is too stingy in the trade market, "Houston's Grande", Alexander's business vision is unique, he bought the Rockets for $85 million in 1993, and the market value of the Rockets has reached $1.65 billion in 2017, and he has earned about $1.57 billion in 24 years.

Now that the boss has spoken, Dawson, as a senior wage earner, can only carry out the order and arrange for the Scouts of the Rockets to investigate Sun Yue.

Interested in Sun Yue is not only the Houston Rockets, but in the manager's room of the Staples Center Arena, the star of the Los Angeles Lakers, Kobe Bryant. Bryant and Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak are also discussing Sun Yue.

'Mitch, that skipper I think we can give it a try, his passing and defending is a good fit for our team.' On July 14, 2004, the Lakers traded the "big shark" Shaquille O'Neal to the Miami Heat.

"Kobe, we have a first-round pick and a second-round pick this year, and the first-round pick we're ready to select Joseph High School's big man — Andrew Bynum, the big guy with a lot of potential, and our scouts think he's the next Shaquille."

Carol with Team Rockets. Compared to Dawson, Mitch Kupchak's draft vision and ability to develop players are simply heaven and earth, and Mitch Kupchak is praised by many fans as "the best team general manager in the NBA".

Since the team's management has already decided on the direction of the draft, as the team's leading star, Kobe Bryant can't say anything more, after all, the Lakers' management chose Kobe Bryant without hesitation in the choice between O'Neal and Kobe Bryant in the summer.

Kobe Bryant only watched the game between the Wolverines and the warmongers, and he had a good impression of Sun Yue, who was able to win the victory against the "Illinois Three Heroes", and thought that he was very suitable for partnering with him in the backcourt. But for the management of the Lakers, Kobe Bryant still chooses to trust.

"However, we still have a second-round pick, and if Chinese Sun falls to the second round, we may be able to pick up a leak." However, for the star of the house, Mitch Kupchak is still very face-saving.

Kobe nodded, and the two continued to talk about other things on the team, after all, for them, the Lakers' current record is more worthy of concern.

While other teams were just starting to send scouts, the Detroit Pistons, the closest to the University of Michigan, had already taken action, sending Mayer, the deputy general manager who had a relationship with Sun Yue, to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Sun Yue.

However, the Pistons, who just won the NBA championship this year, do not need Sun Yue highly, after all, in the point guard position, the Pistons already have this year's Finals MVP Chauncey. Billups and Puerto Rican defender Carlos Arroyo.

The Pistons also only have one first-round pick this year, and for this first-round pick, Vice President Mel advocated the selection of Sun Yue, while General Manager Jack McCroskey and Head Coach Larry Brown. Brown prefers to pick Jason Markhill, a big forward from the University of Cincinnati, and there is still a huge disagreement within Pistons management about whether to use this first-round pick to select Sun Yue.

In this way, the University of Michigan's next game against the University of Washington in Seattle attracted a large number of NBA scouts, who came not only for Sun Yue, but also for Sun Yue's opponents today.

Before the game, Coach Tom stood at the door of the visiting team's locker room and clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the players who were still talking in the locker room, and said loudly: "Okay, wolf cubs, there is still half an hour before your cheering feast, are you ready?" ”

"Ready!" The Wolverines howled at the top of their lungs.

Coach Tom was pleased with the mental state of the players: "We have been preparing for this game for a long time, and everyone already knows that the University of Washington is a team that is good at breaking through and shooting from the outside, and we have to pay attention to the breakthrough in the middle, and we must not let them shoot easily on the outside. ”

Coach Tom has done a lot of homework for tonight's opponent, and the two guards at the University of Washington are only just over 1.7 meters tall, but they are excellent in breaking through and shooting from outside, especially point guard Nate. Robinson's individual scoring ability has reached NBA level.

Coach Tom continued, "The University of Washington has a lot of pick-and-roll and pass-and-cut combinations every game, but their ball handlers rarely pass the ball, and most of the combinations are preferred by scoring rather than passing. So, we're going to have to pay attention to the ball-handlers, especially their point guard Nate. Robinson, skipper, take care of him. Others should also be ready to wrap their bags at all times. ”

Sun Yue sat next to him and nodded, he didn't ask for a single defense Nate. Robinson. Because the importance of this game to him has exceeded that of the average NCAA regular season, Sun Yue learned from the "mouth-to-mouth communication" of "intelligence officer" Ledlow that a large number of NBA scouts came to watch this game today.

Among them, Sun Yue and Nate. Robinson's alignment is even more of a priority for them, with both men in the top 30 of several sports media's draft predictions as potential first-round picks.
