: Eight hundred and nine: Unique talent

Latest website: 5-on-5 trial training is the project that best reflects the true strength of a player.
Although it is not possible to judge whether a player is good or not in a game, combining on-the-field performance and people's previous understanding of a player can at least make people see a player more thoroughly.
Link took a small bench and sat on the side of the training court, feeling like a coach for the first time.
As soon as he sat down, he found that Jokic on the court was staring at him. After realizing that he was also looking at him, Jokic turned his face away again.
Jokic’s league and team, even if they are placed in the European League, are not well-known, let alone a strong European team.
Therefore, in the European League, Jokic rarely sees European superstars, let alone NBA superstars!
Suddenly coming to people who could only be seen on TV, Jokic will inevitably look more curiously.
However, his chubby body and looking around make him a big difference in momentum from other rookies.
Jokic was assigned to a team with Joe Harris, the Grizzlies' key observation object, and Dinwiddie, who had just recovered from a serious injury.
On the other side, there are Jeremy Grant, Jordan Clarkson, K.J. McDaniels and Jokic's opponents, senior insider Dwight Powell from Stanford University.
For Powell, Link can be regarded as somewhat impressed. Although his stats in college are not so bad, he also failed to become a star in the NBA. But in the future, he is one of the important rotations of the Dallas Mavericks.
He has the strength to survive in the NBA.
So to Jokic now, Powell is a powerful enemy.
The game started very quickly. During the jump ball stage, Jokic's bounce of Camby's old Duncan made Link's face turn green.
Anyway, someone recommended by me, can I make myself a little bit better!
The basketball was easily taken by Powell. His physical fitness is not top-notch, but he is also a type that can run and jump.
Jordan Clarkson broke through immediately after receiving the basketball, and his assault made most people unresponsive.
In this way, Clarkson broke through to the inside. At this time, Jokic is the only player who can protect the basket.
"Come on, kid, stop him!" Link clasped his fist and said silently in his heart
As a result, before the cumbersome Jokic could turn around, Clarkson stepped over him.
Jokic seemed to be an overweight truck driving on the highway, and he could only watch Clarkson's "small cars" whizzing past him.
After the breakthrough, Clarkson took off on one foot, suddenly jumped into the air like a UF equipped with an anti-gravity device, and dunked successfully!
Clarkson reported a height of 96 meters, but the actual height of Link is estimated to be only meters 93. Although he is a little shorter, it's not worth attacking the basket.
Beside Link, Chris Wallace nodded in satisfaction. In the second round, Clarkson is not always able to have this kind of immediate combat power.
After the offensive and defensive transition, Joe Harris was unable to move under McDaniels' defense.
He is indeed a great shooter, but no matter how great a shooter is, he must have space to score. Harris' ordinary athletic ability makes it difficult for him to get rid of defense on his own.
In the end, the offense can only be taken over by Dinwiddie. It's just a pity that Dinwiddie's breakthrough is not threatening under Jeremy Grant's defense.
Dinwiddie fought fiercely. He wanted to let the Grizzlies know that he was not depressed after the injury. But too much force is sometimes not a good thing.
In the end, Dinwiddie’s layup was defended by Powell’s volleyball cap, and Jokic’s team was in a panic.
"Powell's physical fitness is beyond imagination, what do you think of him?" Beside Link, Georgel smiled and discussed with Link.
"It's okay, it's okay." Link nodded absently, Jokic's team was beaten too badly, right!
After the attack, Jeremy Grant relied on the advantage of his tall wingspan to grab the basket. Once again, Jokic's defense became a display.
Although he bravely rushed forward, he was detained by Jeremy Grant before he could take off.
Although Jokic is very heavy, his strength is indeed too weak. The existence of the plank for 20 seconds is no joke.
Don't look at Randolph as fat, but Link knows very well that the "big black bear" has genuine tendon under the fat. Where is Jokic? There is still fat under fat.
Jeremy Grant and Jokic, who were well-built, faced off without any pressure.
After being buckled, Jokic glanced pitifully at the sidelines. As a second-round show, he basically messed up in a trial training like this.
Link is not good at saying encouraging words, which seems unfair to other rookies. But at this time, it was Georgel who got to Link's ear first.
"By the way, when watching the video, Jokic seems to be best at coordinating and shooting, right?"
"Ah? Hmm...Yes, from the video, he is a center with a high quotient." Link nodded repeatedly.
"Um... he is not suitable for melee inside, but maybe he can do something else. Snyder, go up and tell them to let Jokic hold the ball." Georgel waved his hand and decided to give the appointment. Kitch showed his own space a bit.
Georgel knows very well that looking at a player can't just look at his weaknesses, you have to let him use his strengths.
No player is perfect. Every player has his own good and bad things. But if a player's strengths can outweigh his weaknesses, his imperfections are not unacceptable.
For example, Tony Allen, just looking at shooting, players like him can't play in the NBA. But actually? Tony Allen is an important part of the Grizzlies.
But this sentence will not apply to Link, because in his heart Link is perfect...
Snyder rushed to suspend the game. With a wicked look on his face, Jokic was frightened. Jokic probably thought he was brushed off.
But afterwards, it is estimated that after hearing Snyder let himself hold the ball, Jokic's eastern expression changed from fright to surprise.
Although a little unkind, Link really thought this expression was very funny. It seems that in the future, I will take part in this kind of trial training.
After ten seconds, the game restarted. Snyder couldn't lay out any tactics for them. This kind of training was originally about personal ability. After simply saying "Give Jokic the ball more", it's up to the players to do what they do.
Link has experienced this kind of atmosphere, and everyone played like this when he was in the development league. Showing oneself ranks first, and tactics are second.
Training resumed, Jokic leaned against Powell at the middle distance.
Dinwiddie really doesn't trust the big white fat man. He also wants to hit the basket by himself to prove that his body is completely fine.
But he was indeed embarrassed by Jeremy Grant, so in the end, Dinwiddie gave the ball to Jokic.
Jokic held the ball with his back, and his lack of muscle lines formed a sharp contrast with the strong Powell behind him.
When Jeremy Grant saw this, he immediately went to double-team Jokic. He believed that the combined efforts of himself and Powell were enough to make the cumbersome fat man make a mistake.
Dinwiddie saw Grant had left him and immediately cut diagonally to the basket.
But he didn't expect much, he didn't expect Jokic to see his chance.
With the formation of Grant and Powell's double-team, Jokic couldn't turn around, let alone see Dinwiddie who had already cut into the penalty area behind him.
While everyone was waiting for Jokic to get embarrassed, the big fat man suddenly and smartly passed the ball behind him with one hand!
Dinwiddie was stunned when he saw the basketball flying over. He didn't expect Jokic to see the opportunity with his back to him!
Powell turned around in surprise, but all he saw was Dinwiddie who had dunked with both hands.
After Dinwiddie dunked, Link turned his head and looked at Chris Wallace beside him, only to find that his mouth was already open.
Link smiled, and it seemed that Jokic's trial was not completely over.
After several attacks, Jokic showed his excellent coping ability. His ball quotient, passing vision and passing accuracy have all been demonstrated.
Under his support, Joe Harris and Dinwiddie were no longer unable to move.
He can pass the ball again with one hand as soon as he touches the ball, he can softly hit a jumper when he gets a chance, and he can clearly spot every potential opportunity in the high post. Even in a fast break, Jokic passed Powell with a back dribble.
The technique he showed was amazing and anti-traditional. Nowadays, in this league, few centers play like him. His quotient is amazing and he feels like a guard! It is incredible that he is only 9 years old, and he has received formal basketball training for less than four years!
Although his athletic ability and figure are still so hot-eyed, Chris Wallace at least saw the shining points on Jokic.
If he can lose weight successfully, will the Grizzlies get a second Marc Gasol? This question has already made Wallace think about it.
In the end, Jokic's team won a 5-on-5 trial match that lasted 5 minutes with a counterattack.
Jokic had 6 points and 4 rebounds. He was dunked twice and flew twice, but he sent out 6 assists in an alternative way!
With his support, Dinwiddie and Joe Harris fought like a fish. You know, these rookies haven't even practiced together before, but even so, Jokic can string up the offense~EbookFREE.me~ This kind of ability is not something that can be exercised by training, the body can be practiced. , But the golf trader really depends on talent.
Especially for inside players, this kind of talent is even rarer. Many inside players have played in the NBA all their lives, and they don't know what coping and passing are.
After the trial training, Wallace said a few words of courtesy and let everyone go, and there was no particular player left to say that he was interested in him.
Jokic looked a little lost, he must have thought his trip to Memphis was completely messed up. He originally wanted to ask for a Link's autograph, but in the end he was embarrassed to walk up.
But after all the outsiders left, Wallace said to Link, "I have to say, Link. The kid you asked us to find... is really interesting."
Before leaving that day, Wallace specially copied a bunch of Jokic game videos from Jogel's computer and went home to study.
Link estimates that history may have to change again.
