no shortcuts in basketball

Chapter 63 Spring is a Good Day

After Xu Yong announced this small matter, there were thunderous cheers at the scene.

No matter how rich the imagination is, no one could have imagined that Arizona State University would have four players with NBA prospects at once.

But this also explains from the side why they were able to reach the semi-finals and even win the final championship.

Although there are not as many four- and five-star high school students as in North Carolina, Arizona State's talent is actually not that bad.

Sufficient talent, tenacious will, and some unexpected off-court buffs finally contributed to this championship.

At this time, probably only the head coach Sandek's expression is a bit bitter.

Because the starting five left four at once, the team's strength will plummet next season.

Although the championship sign has been played out, the team's strength has declined too much. Just like Stanford University next door, recruiting may not be easy.

Kuxcos: I woke up and I was the boss of the team?

In the stands at this time, the scouts were already ready to take action.

The quartet of the Devils were previously predicted to be three lottery in the first round of four, and this championship is also a bonus for them.

Especially Xu Yong, now he is like a character in a basketball manager game, with the MOP fiery logo in the upper left corner, and his pick is bullish.

After returning to the locker room after the awards ceremony, Xu Yong took out his mobile phone and found that there were already a lot of information and calls.

"I knew you would definitely be in the NBA!" Cai Xiao happened to be the latest one to send the message.

After seeing it, he immediately remembered his experience before rebirth.

Looking back now, Cai Xiao wondered if he was frightened when he saw himself lying on the board in the toilet.

He called Cai Xiao back, and the two chatted about their junior high school past.

By the way, Cai Xiao also told him that he did not stop training after entering college for the past two years, and that he was planning to play professional basketball.

Obviously, this is influenced by Xu Yong's playing in the United States.

Xu Yong is also happy for the other party, because he knows that Cai Xiao loves basketball very much.

Although the current CUBA does not have a draft path, it will be very difficult to play professionally, but it is very meaningful to fight for the things you love once in your life.

When he hung up the phone, he couldn't help laughing.

In this life, he is not the only one who has changed.

Then, he thought a lot more.

Before his rebirth, Yao Ming was already the chairman of the Basketball Association, and he made cultivating young players a priority in his work, sending talented seedlings overseas for training, which proved to be the right thing to do.

Because in the known world in the past, one or two top players proved to be unable to lead a team. Only by improving the overall level can the overall strength of the team be improved and better results be achieved.

However, the domestic basketball training method is backward, not to mention the players, even the coaches have many bastards. Such coaches do not know how many good seedlings have been buried.

But it is still far away from that now, but if his success can affect the people around him, then when he is selected, will more qualified people send their children to the NCAA?
After all, he can be regarded as opening up a path that no one has ever traveled before.

Just like there was Wang Zhizhi, the forerunner who explored the way, before Yao Ming came later.

If that is the case, the rise of Chinese basketball may really be expected.

Just as he was thinking, the phone vibrated again, it was Yao Ming calling.

"It's hard to get through your phone." Yao Ming burst into hearty laughter as soon as he answered the phone.

Yao Ming called, in addition to congratulating him, he also mentioned the matter of his agent.

Now that he has announced his candidacy, the first step is to sign an agent.

Because finding a trainer, arranging trial training, signing endorsements, all these things are inseparable from the agent.

Yao Ming recommended a few to Xu Yong, all well-known in the agent industry, including his own agent Bill Duffy, Jeff Schwartz with excellent word-of-mouth ability, and David Schwartz with the most players under his banner. Falk and more.

Yao Ming's suggestion was very clear. The first agent should be a well-known one, because they are more professional in their work.

And the agent can be changed, which will not affect future plans.

Xu Yong basically adopted this suggestion, and opened his eyes to make a preliminary decision on Jeff Schwartz, who will overwhelm Rich Paul in the future.

……

The Devils flew back to Tempe the next day.

When I got off the plane, there were a large number of fans at the airport to pick me up.

Even the mayor of Phoenix is ​​here.

Arizona's second title, Phoenix's first basketball title.

The local impact is [sensational].

When they returned to Arizona State University, the school had arranged a series of celebration activities for them, starting from signing autographs and group photos for fans on campus, to holding a championship parade in Tempe by car, meeting fans on the stage, and a grand evening celebration. Celebrate party.

Creating school history is really a matter of face.

When it came to the party at night, the members of the devil team became the focus of the audience.

Especially the four who are about to enter the NBA, not to mention the beauties get together, they are also hugging from left to right.

Xu Yong is no exception. In his new life, his mentality towards women will also change.

In the past, I had no leisure time for the struggle, but now, after playing for so many years, can't I enjoy it?

But it's only limited to trying the hand feel, there is no real fight, he doesn't want some illegitimate children to appear before entering the NBA.

Moreover, the ones that can set up the steering wheel for you at this time are generally several-handed cars with relatively old interiors, and the driving environment is also a problem.

After staying at the party for a while, Xu Yong went outside to catch his breath.

April is spring. At this time, many plants on the campus are in bloom. Instead of the gloomy feeling of winter, it is full of fragrance.

Not long after he sat down, Harden also came out, but with a girl with a curvy ass.

It seems that he is preparing to end his single career on this beautiful night.

Ji Ni is too beautiful to hold back.

And the girl I'm looking for is really Harden, and her unique taste has been revealed at this time.

"James, remember to bring an umbrella." Xu Yong reminded with a smile.

Harden understood in seconds and nodded with a smile.

And not long after, Ayers and Cooksix also came out one after another, and they all brought girls, especially that guy Ayers brought two of them.

I really didn't expect that this mature and steady guy of his was the most flamboyant player in the team.

But one after another, it really is spring and everything is revived...

Sandek also came out, and of course there were no girls by his side.

He also came out to breathe.

He was a little surprised when he saw Xu Yong was there, and then sat beside Xu Yong.

The two chatted for a while, and then unconsciously they talked about recruiting students.

Xu Yong could still feel Sandek's sorrow.

In fact, it was a good choice for DeRozan to stay and play for another year to win the championship this time.

Because this season he is only the team's third choice, next season when the core data improves, his strength improves, and next year is not a big year, he has the opportunity to hit the top five or even the top three picks.

However, DeRozan participated in the election early due to family reasons, and the Devils will really have a hard time recruiting next season.

Xu Yong recommended a person to Sandek, a person who guaranteed the team's lower limit.

This person was a college student two years ago, and he was promoted to Marquette University as a substitute last year, so he didn't have many opportunities.

If you can promise to start and give the team status, it is not difficult to recruit.

Although it takes a year to be a ball supervisor to do that, that person's strength will continue to improve even if he doesn't play.

"What's his name?" Xu Yong's introduction made Sandek full of curiosity. There is such a strange man in the NCAA.

"Jimmy Butler." Xu Yong said.

　Congratulations to me, the Sun King, for wearing No. 23 again. This way I can retire two jerseys with the Lakers at the same time. Please vote daily~
