Chapter 39: If I make everything clear to you, it's hard for you to grow

Boston got an extra lottery pick because they traded, which gives them two lotto picks this year, the 10th and 11th picks in the first round.

As a result, many potential lotto shows go to them for tryouts.

Yu Fei was not surprised that Eddie Griffin would try out for the Celtics, but Roy's appearance surprised him.

Since he couldn't get into a Division I college, Roy was determined to skip college, and if he couldn't be favored by the NBA team, there were only two ways to go in the future, one was to give up basketball, find a job casually, and enter society. The other is to find a community college to cope with it first, and then find a way to improve your academic performance, and have the opportunity to play in the Division I league in the future.

According to Yu Fei's understanding of Roy, he should have chosen the second route.

As for why he is still trying to pry open the door of the NBA now, and even get a trial opportunity with the Celtics, Yu Fei doesn't understand.

So, he called Roy.

"Fulai, is it really you? How have you been?! ”

He sounded excited, Yu Fei hadn't contacted him for a while.

Yu Fei introduced his recent situation, and then turned the topic to Roy, "I heard that you are going to Boston for a trial tomorrow?" ”

"yes, how do you know?"

"Because I'm going too."

"Great! This... It's unbelievable!! ”

The situation on Roy's side sounded as crazy as Zhuang Qiang when he heard that Wang Duoyu had inherited a billion yuan.

Because if Yu Fei is there, he can express himself with peace of mind.

After all, he and Yu Fei are not players in the same position, and the draft prospects are completely different, one is a definite lottery edge or even a lottery prospect, and the other is that as long as there is a team willing to choose, thank God.

"I know you're excited, but don't get excited." Yu Fei asked, "What is your situation now?" ”

Roy seems determined to make it to the end in professional basketball.

After he failed to recruit a professional basketball agent, he expanded his scope and finally found an overseas agent, and this agent had ties to the Celtics, so he arranged this trial for Roy.

This surprised Yu Fei a little, and at the same time worried about Roy's future.

He may have inadvertently changed the course of Roy's life.

Will Roy, who doesn't go to college, still be the same Roy from his previous life?

Yu Fei didn't know, so he asked again, "Are you really not thinking about going to college?" ”

Roy said firmly, "I don't want to waste my youth in a junk school. ”

The matter has come to this point, Yu Fei can only wait and see what happens.

The next day, Yu Fei basically stayed in the hotel, but spent four or two hours working out in the gym.

That night, Yu Fei got the trial list for going to Boston tomorrow from his agent.

I don't know if I don't see it, but there are really a lot of acquaintances.

In addition to the known Roy and Griffin, there are Joe Johnson, Gerald Wallace, Kedrick Brown (SG/SF), Rodney White (Rodney White SF).

Among these people, only Joe Johnson was known to Yu Fei in his previous life, and the rest were all known after crossing over.

Except for Gerard Wallace, everyone else, like Yu Fei, is a potential lotto for this draft.

That said, none of them have a top-five quote, but they will be seriously considered by teams with 6-13 picks.

Of all the tryouts, the biggest hand was Eddie Griffin, who was considered the "Sleeper".

Talented, but not necessarily monetizable.

Therefore, people who like him, such as Team Rocket, think he is the champion, and people who don't like him may feel that he is not worthy of the lottery.

After the night, Yu Fei traveled to Boston, accompanied by Anthony Lawson and Quint Demiou.

Once in Boston, Lawson expressed his stereotypical opinion of the city: "I don't like it here, it's too white, it's too conservative, it's too traditional, it's too boring. ”

"That's the last point, right?" Yu Fei smiled, "It's hard for you, a guy who studied in Kent, to say such a thing." ”

What other city could be more boring than Kent?

Yu Fei didn't even know what entertainment an ordinary teenager could have in Kent City.

Yu Fei and his entourage went to the hotel first, rested for a while, ate something casually and went to the Celtic training base.

In addition to Celtics coach Jim O'Brien, Yu Fei also met Celtics' headline Paul Pearce.

Yu Fei doesn't have a deep impression of Pierce as a player, but after retiring, Pierce is very much in line with everyone's stereotype of celebrities.

Arrogance, arrogance, and repeated violence.

"Yes, if I were as old as you, I wouldn't go to bullshit college, youth is the true meaning!"

Pierce is very supportive of a high school rookie like Yu Fei.

"Thank you."

Yu Fei replied politely, and went to the dressing room to change clothes.

In the locker room, Yu Fei met Gerard Wallace.

At this time last year, the brother was considering whether to skip college and go straight to the draft, because he was one of the top three high school students in the 2000 class and was elected Naismith's high school student of the year, beating KG II Darius Miles.

However, although he did not study well, Wallace just wanted to improve, and he wanted to go to college, so he went to the University of Alabama. This time, his shortcomings were exposed in the higher-level competitions. Shooting is sparse, basic skills are weak, although he can run and jump, and "every round is like the end of the world", but the rough skill reserve has also made his draft market all the way down.

At present, Wallace is recognized as a potential lotto like Yu Fei, but in the past and in the future, there are many potential lotto shows like him with huge shortcomings that have fallen all the way to the end of the first round and even the second round.

"AYO, YOU'RE... That yellow version of Eddie Griffin? ”

As soon as Gerard Wallace spoke, Yu Fei was like Wang Duoyu who had seen a sleeping dragon and a phoenix, and the three words "smart" came to mind.

"I don't like people saying that, but it's good if you're happy." Yu Fei responded.

"No offense." Wallace was very familiar, "Gerard Wallace, I'm from Syracoga, you can call me Big G." ”

"Yu Fei, from Kent." Yu Fei added, "You can call me Da Fei." ”

The two exchanged a few more casual words, and then returned to the arena together.

Yu Fei doesn't plan to do a physical test today, because he has already tested the body of two teams, and he has not hidden it, as long as the Celtics want to find it, they can find it.

Gerard Wallace is interested in physical measurements, because that's where he excels.

About 20 minutes later, the other players also arrived at the scene.

When Roy saw Yu Fei, he inevitably greeted each other.

Yu Fei looked at his heartless appearance and was very worried about his draft prospects, and at the same time, he also noticed that there were a total of 12 players who came to participate in the trial today.

When Eddie Griffin appeared, Yu Fei glanced at him.

Neither spoke.

A natural antipathy and antagonism appeared in their hearts, and no one wanted to be such and such a version of whom.

After the test, Jim O'Brien said, "You can choose your teammates freely, and after 10 minutes, we'll split up into black and white teams for a 28-minute match. ”

Yu Fei naturally teamed up with Roy, and then Gerard Wallace joined them.

In this way, the prototype of a team is there, and Yu Fei naturally becomes the leader of this team.

On the other side, Eddie Griffin opted to join forces with lotto favorite Kadric Brown.

This gave Yu Fei the opportunity to lobby Joe Johnson.

"Joe, you don't want to play as a substitute on their team, do you?" Yu Fei asked with a smile.

Joe Johnson and Kaedrick Brown clash in position, of course, this kind of impromptu team match can be a little more flexible and not too positional, but Johnson doesn't want to be someone else's foil.

Therefore, he joined Yu Fei's team.

After that, Yu Fei let a short center named Jack Dawson enter the team, and the team was officially formed.

In the end, Eddie Griffin's team had 7 players, while Yu Fei had 5 players, which meant that the five of them needed to play the whole game.

"When does the game start? I can't wait! Roy asked excitedly.

"Five minutes to go."

After a while, Yu Fei and the others went to the Celtics' equipment manager to claim the jersey.

When Yu Fei asked for the No. 44 white jersey, the equipment manager gave him a meaningful look: "Young man, you are very suitable for our team." ”

"What do you mean?"

Yu Fei wondered.

"Hmph, if I tell you everything, you're going to have a hard time growing, okay, take your jersey and get out of the way."
