NBA: No. 1 Forward-Chapter 619: Cut off? !
The defensive coverage area is very wide, and both the inside and outside lines are within his defense range. It can be said that there are no dead ends in 360 degrees.
At the same time, his jumping ability is also very good, and the bullet speed is also very fast, which allows him to easily complete the alley-oop.
At the same time, his coordination ability is excellent, even if he can't complete the lob dunk, he can easily score the ball.
Anthony Davis is also a natural rebounder, averaging 10.4 rebounds per game during college.
After the team entered the "March Madness", he averaged 12.3 rebounds in six games.
Especially in the inside card position, although the body does not look strong, he is not afraid of confrontation at all and is a tough player.
At the same time, Anthony Davis' shooting ability is also very good, his movements are very standard, and his shooting percentage is also very good.
It can be said that on both offense and defense, Anthony Davis has shown a very strong talent.
The draft experts even gave him a summary evaluation with "unlimited potential, the core of team building"!
Disadvantages: It is still a problem that rookie players will have.
The body is not strong enough, lacks strength, is relatively thin, needs to gain weight, etc...
Anthony Davis has broad shoulders, though.
This also means that as long as he undergoes systematic training from the NBA, he has great potential to become a powerful player.
However, his current core strength and lower body strength need to be strengthened.
The offensive skills are relatively rough, whether it is post-up singles, footsteps at the basket, or face-to-frame offenses, they lack skill.
Another point is that Anthony Davis is easier to eat.
The draft template set by scouts and draft experts for Anthony Davis is "Wolf King" Garnett.
It can be seen from the positioning of the draft template that these draft experts are very optimistic about Anthony Davis.
However, Anthony Davis' talent and development potential are indeed worthy of the No. 1 pick.
Outside of Anthony Davis, there are some players with exceptional talent.
Damian Lillard, Bradley Beal, Andre Drummond, Harrison Barnes, Evan Fournier, Terrence Ross and more.
However, the picks of these players are very high, basically in the lottery zone.
According to the Knicks' 30th pick in the first round, it is simply impossible to select these favorites.
No matter how they drop, it is impossible to drop to the 30th pick in the first round.
Therefore, Lian Dao only looked at these players, and the focus of selection was not on them at all.
The second-round pick "Tao~bao" is really in line with the Knicks' operation.
But fortunately, there are indeed a few dusty pearls in this year's second-round show.
Based on the memories of his previous life, Lian Dao recalled a few players who counterattacked.
Such as Draymond Green, Khris Middleton, Jae Crowder and so on.
Especially Draymond Green, whose growth was unexpected by everyone.
As an older rookie, his growth is also the most amazing.
Even if Lian Dao is asked to rearrange this year's draft, Lian Dao will definitely put Green in the top three.
Draymond Green entered the NCAA in the same year as Lian Dao.
Originally, in history, his Michigan State University was still the main culprit in eliminating the University of Southern California.
However, in this life, the strength of the University of Southern California is even stronger.
Moreover, Lian Dao scored 8 of 16 in "March Madness" and beat the Michigan State Spartans.
At that time, as a rookie, Draymond Green only came off the bench and didn't have much playing time.
Among them, Lian Dao only played against Draymond Green briefly.
But this should not affect his appreciation of Draymond Green.
Especially in history, Draymond Green, as a short insider, showed defensive strength, which made opponents miserable.
Tough, ferocious defense, bite like a hyena.
This also makes all players dare not underestimate this short inside player who is only 1.98 meters.
Of course, the evaluation of Draymond Green in later generations is also mixed.
Some people say that his defensive moves are "dirty", and Lian Dao cannot deny this.
When Lian Dao watched the Warriors game in his previous life, he also hated Draymond Green's dirty moves.
But as a player in this life, Lian Dao hopes that such a player will become a teammate.
Every legend will have helpers (thugs) around him.
For example, the big bug Rodman next to Michael Jordan, Bowen and Horry next to gdp, "Merciful Shiping" next to Kobe in 2009, etc.
In addition to being dirty in his movements, Green is still very strong.
You can call him dirty, but you can never call him bad.
Green is very controversial, and another reason is his big mouth.
In many cases, Green is more like a combination of Big Ben and Rodman.
Not only does he not give an inch when defending, but he also cannot lose at all in terms of momentum.
Although many of his actions and remarks have been criticized by some fans, as many commentators and coaches have said, he is the kind of player his team loves to death and other teams hate to death.
He was selected to the All-Star three times as a substitute, which has proved his strength and his weight in the coach's heart.
According to the historical development process, the Golden State Warriors will pick this older rookie from Michigan State at the 35th pick.
However, Lian Dao does not intend to let the Warriors choose Green.
So he put only one name on his recommendation list for Donny Walsh.
He recalled the surprised eyes of the little senior sister and Donny Walsh when he wrote Draymond Green's name.
But Lian Dao didn't want to explain anything, he just said "he is the hidden pearl in this draft"!
The two of them didn't ask any further questions. The little senior sister and Donnie Walsh still agreed with Lian Dao's vision of candidates.
"Then do we want to trade up?"
Donnie Walsh asked with some concern.
After Donny Walsh sat down, he thought that only one player's name was written, and there was no reserve list. It would be troublesome if he was selected in advance.
"Well... if we have chips, we can trade up!"
Lian Dao pondered for a while and said.
Draymond Green, as an older rookie, and his talent is not so outstanding, his draft prediction is not very high.
Otherwise, history would not have been selected by the Warriors in the second round.
Even in this life, the draft prediction given by draft experts is still the second round.
However, considering the butterfly effect he brought, Lian Dao still wanted to be safe.
"There are chips...but..."
Donny Walsh smiled awkwardly.
"But the managers of some teams don't want to trade draft picks with us, and those who are willing to trade are the lions who open their mouths, so..."
As Donny Walsh said, he spread his hands helplessly.
Lian Dao looked at Donny Walsh in a speechless voice.
Then you can't **** trade up, so what are you asking?
Seeing Lian Dao's eyes, Donnie Walsh also realized that he seemed to be asking a mentally retarded question.
So a little embarrassed, I hurriedly analyzed and explained.
"However, no one should compete with us. After all, Draymond Green's draft prediction is in the early part of the second round!"
Lian Dao also nodded at this.
Although the Knicks are late in the pick, they are also the 30th pick in the first round.
If you choose Draymond Green, you should be in your hands.
…
But there is an engineer in the United States who likes to talk nonsense. Murphy once said:
"If something else is possible, no matter how small that possibility is, it will happen."
then…
"The 29th pick in the first round of the 2012 NBA, the Golden State Warriors' selection is..."
"Draymond Green!"
When David Stern called out the name of Draymond Green, there was sparse applause from the audience.
Draymond Green himself also had a look of disbelief, even a little confused~www.innread.com~ He originally thought that he was destined to be a second-round pick, but he didn't expect to be overjoyed.
He didn't react until his friends reminded him.
After standing up and hugging my mother and friends one after another, I walked to the stage with an excited face...
"Walter?!"
"What the hell!"
Lian Dao was surprised, why did the Golden State Warriors choose Green at the 29th pick.
Now Lian Dao's mind is full of question marks.
Could it be that his arrival brought about such a big butterfly effect?
Lian Dao knew that the Golden State Warriors had a No. 29 first-round pick, which was traded from the Spurs when they traded Stephen Jackson.
But for this draft position, shouldn't they choose Festus Ezeli?
