Chapter 5 Lateral body

Floyd had the scouting reports of Wu Huang and DeRozan in his hand, and if you look at it, the two are almost a level apart in their evaluations.

USC has been inspecting Wu Huang for nearly two years, and it is not from his senior season in which his scoring ability has improved by leaps and bounds, as early as Wu Huang's senior year, USC scouts began to include him in the observation object.

The Wu Huang they first knew had a big picture and running ability far beyond players of the same age, and Floyd knew after watching several of Wu Huang's game videos that this was a player with a very outstanding basketball IQ, and his physical fitness was among the top among the yellow race, even among the black players, he could rank in the middle and upper reaches.

Not only did the University of Southern California discover Wu Huang's potential, but the developed scouting system of American universities made many NCAA elite schools begin to pay attention to Wu Huang's performance, so after Wu Huang's projection ability was developed, he immediately turned him into one of California's talented players.

It was at this time that the University of Southern California and UCLA began to formally contact Wu Huang, hoping to recruit this outstanding point guard player. It's a pity that at that time, there was Westbrook with greater potential and Darren Collison with greater potential in the UCLA team, so they were not as sincere as USC, which made Wu Huang finally choose USC.

Of course, Freud didn't know that Wu Huang's ball sense defect had been remedied, and what he was holding in his hand at the moment was Wu Huang's observation report from a month ago.

Templates: Best JJ Reddick, worst Jeniro Pargo.

Pros: Leadership Skills, Basketball IQ, Confidence, Work Ethic, Training Motivation, Shot Selection, Free Throws, NBA Three-Point Range, Running Without the Ball, Getting Rid of Catches, Extra-Long Reach.

Cons: Not a real control, fuzzy positioning, defense, mediocre athleticism, passing skills, ball handling skills, breakaways, skinny, too reliant on outside projection.

The University of Southern California evaluated Wu Huang as a precocious and reliable player, an excellent team leader, and an extremely high basketball IQ. He is best at outside shooting, with a range of up to the NBA three-point line, and can shoot anywhere, and his excellent shooting ability has made him a scoring machine in the high school league.

Wu's shooting is very fast, and the fixed-point jumper and catch-and-catch shooting are extremely accurate, but the dribbling jumper is average. The shooting is efficient, not the king of the waves. He is a super confident pitcher who is able to make key shots at key moments in the game. He is also very smart off the ball and ready to shoot at any time, which is very difficult to defend.

Defensively, Wu Huang has fast and flexible defensive footsteps that can keep up with fast opponents, and his extra-long arm span can misposition the No. 2 position.

Disadvantage analysis: 188cm is an embarrassing height, although the 206cm arm span makes up for it, but it is still not enough to play his most suitable No. 2 position, such a figure is more suitable for appearing in the PG position, playing SG is too short, and the body's explosiveness and athleticism do not meet the requirements of the NBA, and may become the opponent's offensive breakthrough point.

Although he can shoot key shots on the offensive end, given his size, he will be stuck to the strong men in college at critical times, so can he still take the ball so calmly? It is necessary to strengthen his upper body muscles and strength, but it is a pity that he has always been so thin.

Dribbling and passing are below average, the ball protection ability is poor, and it is easy to make mistakes, so it takes more effort to learn how to play PG position, not a natural PG.

The physical fitness is good, although he has a good absolute speed, but his athletic ability needs to be improved, his breakthrough ability is very poor, his body is thin, his arms are too thin and lacks strength, he doesn't like the other party's too much physical contact with him, and if he encounters a strong PG, he will die ugly.

In addition, Walnut High School is in a division that lacks a challenge, and although he is a scoring machine in the division, he has a lot of shots, and can you trust a pure pitcher? Occasionally, he also feels cold to the touch, right? So don't expect too much from Hugo's NCAA potential, although he has a lot of capital to succeed, but at least he needs to adjust his mentality and the right attitude, especially to strengthen his breakthrough ability.

This scouting report is very objective about Wu Huang's strengths and weaknesses, Wu Huang, who has just graduated from high school, his biggest shortcoming is his passing and control skills, and he does not have the breakthrough ability that a good point guard should have.

Wu Huang's breakthrough ability can only be said to be so-so even in the high school league, although he has worked very hard, but his natural sense of the ball limits his breakthrough and passing skills, even if he trains very hard, but with his ball control and breakthrough ability, he may be in the middle and lower reaches of the NCAA.

So, what if you get to the NBA? I'm afraid that his ball handling ability will become the worst among point guards, and he will definitely not be able to handle the team's main control task. Perhaps the best development at that time is to become a role player like JJ Redick, as the scouting report said, and not be able to play the role of the team's main point guard.

The reason why Wu Huang was excited at the moment was because after his strange dream last night, the original defect in ball sense had been compensated.

At this time, he can imagine that his future progress in dribbling and breakthrough will be very rapid, and there will be no more embarrassment of not being able to control the ball well no matter how much he practices.

Before the training match, Floyd had two first-graders do a side of the body to find out where Wu Huang and DeRozan were athletic.

The McDonald's slam dunk king has a bare foot height of 195cm, weighs 205 pounds, has an arm span of 206cm, a vertical bounce of 75cm, a run-up jump of 95cm, a bench press of 84kg 3 times, a round-trip run of 11.98 seconds in the restricted area, and a 3.33 second sprint in 3/4 games.

Such physical fitness, taking into account the progress after systematic training, should belong to the A-level in the NBA's No. 2 position, which is already a very rare talent. However, if compared to those superstars, DeRozan's physical talent is not the top existence. However, you can refer to Kobe, Peter Pan's physical fitness is similar to DeRozan, and he is also not the top athletic ability, but through hard training, he can still become the second superstar after Jordan.

Freud nodded secretly, when it comes to physical fitness, many people have misunderstandings, as if it depends on height, arm span, strength, bounce, speed, and explosiveness. In fact, there are hidden attributes, such as coordination, agility, lower body strength, physical fitness, palm size, etc., which are often overlooked, and these talents are equally important.

Of course, there is another attribute that is most critical for all athletes, and that is the ability to resist injuries. Most fans think that Maddie has better physical fitness than Kobe, which is a typical easy-to-see quality that is very good, but some hidden attributes that are not easy to see, Kobe Bryant is obviously much better.

The players of the Trojans have lamented DeRozan's perverted physical fitness, don't look at his physical stats are slightly inferior to Vince Carter, LeBron James and other gods, but who are those? is either the champion or Tanhua, they are all real geniuses that are rare to see in ten or twenty years, how can it be so easy to appear one.

DeRozan can basically win a place in the first-round lottery area for himself just by this body data, which cannot but make these players who are destined to be difficult to enter the NBA envious.

Next is Emperor Wu's physical test, the big guy looks handsome, but Wenwen is weak Asian, and compared with a group of muscle ** around him, it is really a bit weak willow to help the wind, and he will fall down when he touches it. The Trojans players couldn't help but think, "If it weren't for his accurate shooting, how could he get a scholarship to the University of Southern California with such a small body?" ”

These people must not know what it means to "not look good", Wu Huang's next body data quickly dropped his jaw, including Freud also felt that the scouting report he was holding in his hand was definitely written by an amateur.

Wu Huang is barefoot and 188cm tall, weighs 172 pounds, and has an arm span of 206cm. These are nothing, it can only be said that Wu Huang's arm span is very perverted, which is one of his physical talents. But the next test made everyone unable to calm down, Wu Huang's vertical bounce of 70cm, running bounce of 90cm, he turned out to be similar to DeRozan's bounce?

DeRozan couldn't help but squirt out a sip of energy drink next to him, he didn't expect this kind of thing, he was the champion of the McDonald's Slam Dunk Contest, but this Asian who looked very thin at first glance didn't have to bounce much worse?

Wu Huang didn't think there was anything wrong, the strange dream didn't help his physical talent at all, his physical fitness has never been bad, including his family, there are basically no members with poor physical fitness.

His father, Wu Zetian, was a fighting champion in the police force when he was young, and his mother, Zhang Meiqin, participated in the women's basketball team in college when she was young, and his parents had excellent physical fitness. It is true that he looks a little thin, but that doesn't mean he's in poor physical fitness, and the two must not be confused.

The Trojans players all gathered around at once, intending to see the Asian's next body stats.

They were right to be nervous, and something even more surprising happened......

Wu Huang's 84 kg bench press times: 3 times, he actually has as many bench presses as DeRozan in the second position, which means that his upper body strength may be stronger than DeRozan, although this data is not useful for playing basketball, but at least it shows that this guy is by no means weak.

Wu Huang looked at his teammate who looked surprised, and smiled lightly: "It's nothing, I saw a guy who was thinner than me at the Nike Summit, and he was able to push 3 times at that time." ”

When DeRozan heard this, he suddenly remembered, there is also a player who is very similar to Wu Huang at the Nike Summit, that guy looks like a 12-year-old child, but he is much more famous than Wu Huang, it seems to be called Curry?

Wu Huang then tested the round-trip run in the penalty area with a time of 10.90 seconds, and the time of the three-quarter sprint was 3.12 seconds.

Floyd and assistant coach Andy glanced at each other, they didn't expect this yellow man's physical fitness to be so good, once this physical test data is released, coupled with his shooting ability and basketball IQ, a proper first-round pick.

"Wu's best template is JJ Reddick, which guy wrote this?" Floyd shoved the test form into the arms of assistant coach Andy and whispered, "I think this is his worst template, and his template should be Jason Terry." ”

Floyd was eager to find out who had made the scouting report and then throw the current stats in his face, and now he couldn't wait to see what Wu Huang was capable of, a clearly underrated player.

Andy laughs: "It's not uncommon for this kind of thing to happen, every year there will be low-key high school students like Wu, and every year in the NBA Draft there will be underrated college players, but they will soon let others know that they are being underestimated." ”

Freud nodded, he knew that he might have picked up a treasure, Wu Huang's athletic ability was not under DeRozan, who would dare to believe it? He didn't look at Wu Huang's physical fitness, but his leadership temperament, basketball IQ, and shooting ability, so this time it was really an unexpected surprise.

Wu Huang's status quickly rose to the level of equality with DeRozan in Freud's heart after this body, and he knew that if there was the same physical fitness, the potential of black players would never be the opponent of white and yellow people, because physical fitness determined the lower limit of the player, and effort and brain determined the upper limit of the player.
