Under Du En's initiative, the physical examination had just begun, and more than ten people had already gathered around Du En, forming a 5V5 team.
The 5V5 configuration of the joint trial training is usually 10 to 13 people.
Because lottery picks basically do not participate in 5v5, the number of teams that are temporarily matched and formed by the remaining players is usually 4 or 6.
As the saying goes, I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail.
For those individual players who are not accepted by the team and are floating around, if the official cannot put them into a certain team, then they will completely lose the opportunity to perform in 5V5.
Even if he was finally admitted, because he was not familiar with his temporary teammates, he did not get a good performance opportunity. In the end, his draft prospects not only failed to improve, but actually declined.
Therefore, I saw that Du En started to form gangs early.
Some rookies with ideas also took the initiative to lean on Duen, a small group.
Some rookies also tried to get close to Du En, as if they wanted to follow Du En's lead.
Although Du En behaved gracefully and could talk to anyone, he did not refuse everyone who came. Instead, he carefully selected and methodically enhanced the team's strength.
Just when the remaining substitute players were almost selected, the corridor outside the physical examination center suddenly became noisy.
Almost two seconds later, a group of people walked in around an older-looking young man.
“Hey LeBron, didn’t expect to see you here.
Melon often talks about you to me, saying that you are the strongest opponent he has ever encountered.
At the same time, you are also one of his best brothers. "
Du En left his teammates behind and took the initiative to say hello to James.
As the saying goes, online Zhan is black and offline Zhan is secret.
Although Dunn does not approve of James' self-proclaimed GOAT, nor does he think his historical honor can really secure his position as deputy GOAT, he still needs to have the basic qualities of a person.
Besides, in today’s world, nothing is happening.
Duan and James have a common "brother" - Anthony.
In this case, Duan was not at a disadvantage when met with a warm greeting.
Maybe there's still a chance to gain some popularity from James, maybe.
"Hey man, I know you! Melo's little brother, right?
You performed so well in the NCAA finals. Are you interested in playing with me?
Wait, where's the melon? Why doesn't he come out to see me? Didn't he come? "
Compared with most NBA players, James' IQ, emotional intelligence, and football intelligence are all relatively outstanding.
Although it was the first time that James and Duan had officially met, there was a considerable gap in their fame and status.
But James did not put on airs, but instead started chatting enthusiastically with Du En.
"Melon left after taking the physical test. Like you, he is a busy man, busy participating in the show!
By the way, LeBron, you want to play ball with me?
Are you planning to stay and play 5V5? Then I have to give you a good fight!
Melon often tells me that you are very powerful! But I don't quite believe it.
I think there is a difference between high school students and college students. You'd better be like melon and completely convince me! "
Hearing what Du En said, James was stunned: "Stay and play 5V5? Only fools stay and play 5V5!"
The son of a rich man cannot sit down in the hall! As the favorite for the No. 1 pick, James is destined to be among the top three picks in the first round even if he does not participate in the joint workout.
On the contrary, if he participates in 5V5, if his performance is not good, or if his teammates cheat him, then the draft price may actually decline.
"Well...well, I'm in a hurry.
You know, there are activities in the evening, so I won’t participate.
That's it, you know, I'm leaving, we'll talk next time when we have time!
Brother, I look forward to getting to the NBA and playing together if I have the chance. "
James was high-spirited when he arrived and vigorous when he left. He left here with his team in the blink of an eye.
Du En turned around to return to where he was sitting just now, but found Wade appearing behind him unknowingly.
Wade noticed that Dunn had noticed him, and then asked shyly: "Do you know LeBron James?"
"Brother, what are you afraid of?
I think, with your strength, you can definitely beat LeBron!
You are fully capable of standing in front of LeBron and talking to him.
Be confident, you are the best player we have here.
I think you have a chance to be drafted by an NBA team in the top seven picks. "
Du En patted Wade on the shoulder and encouraged him.
"I can only give nine points to this bragging!"
When Wade heard what Du En said, although he was a little grateful, he only thought that Du En was bragging.
He listened to his agent and told him that his draft prospects were as high as 13th pick and as low as 17th pick.
Top seven picks? Wade never dreamed of it!
Wade agreed to play with Duan just to move his draft pick up two or three places and to gain recognition from NBA teams.
When the time comes for the draft, I will take my family into the little green room and enter the NBA as a lottery pick.
…
Having said that, James is similar to Anthony. He came to the joint training to test the static data and left immediately.
It's just that James seems to be the bigger name. He is obviously late. Many staff members of the joint trial are actively surrounding him and busy.
Fortunately, it did not affect the physical examination of other players and the actual 5V5 battle at night.
In this way, the joint trial training progressed rapidly and step by step, and soon entered the 5V5 actual combat stage.
The result was no surprise. They were all temporary teams. The team formed by Du En was both the best equipped and the most reasonable, and naturally produced the best results.
The other teams used the normal configuration according to the normal configuration, but Duen's team was a little abnormal, but the results were also quite illegal.
Wade played point guard based on his height, but it was Duane, the shooting guard, who actually took charge.
However, with Wade playing with the ball and Duane playing without the ball, the distribution of ball rights is more reasonable.
When Duan controls the ball, he is just responsible for dribbling the ball through half the court, just like the dribbling defender next to Kobe and James.
Fortunately, Wade is not alone in playing. Duan occasionally gets the ball. In addition to attacking himself, he is also responsible for helping the team sort out the offense.
In the starting lineup, there are three remaining positions. Travis Outlaw has the height of a power forward, but he plays as a small forward. He mainly does fast breaks and alley-catching tasks.
Mario Austin and Mazie Lampe are relatively normal, playing their familiar positions, the fourth and fifth positions respectively.
Mario Austin needs to hold the ball, and Duane doesn't compete with him for the ball.
Mazie Lampe can take the initiative to attack the basket and is willing to be a blue-collar player. Duan occasionally plays with the ball and chooses to provide him with the ball.
In the first 19 minutes of 5V5 actual combat, Duan made 4 of 7 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 13 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists.
Wade played a little more time, playing 21 minutes, making 8 of 12 shots, 3 of 4 free throws, and scored a game-high 19 points.
Perhaps Wade's breakthrough was too sharp and explosive. Not long after Wade finished playing 5V5, he was pulled out by scouts from several lottery teams for a private chat.
When Wade returned to Du En, he said to Du En with a slight embarrassment: "Brother, I'm sorry for you.
My agent just told me that I can’t participate in tomorrow’s 5V5!
You were right before, I could be drafted by a team with the top seven picks in the first round.
Next I need to participate in individual workouts with multiple teams, I have to leave tonight, sorry brother. "
On one side is the money path that can be seen, and on the other side are brothers who have only known each other for a day.
Wade, who lives in embarrassment, naturally knows how to make a choice.
“Dwyane, as a brother, I’m really happy for you to hear this news.
However, no team has come to me yet, and I still need to fight with my other brothers for one more day.
You promised to play with me before, but now you choose to leave the team early.
I feel like you're a little sorry for me in this matter. "
Dunn knew Wade's personality, so he took the opportunity to PUA Wade.
When Wade heard this, he also frowned and scratched his scalp, and finally reluctantly said: "Brother, I owe you a favor.
If I become rich, I will definitely help you.
If you don't have a place to eat, you can come to me then. "
When Du En heard this, he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll remember it. Dwyane, I wish you a bright future!"
Looking at Wade who was slowly leaving and looking back, Du En still felt a little guilty in his heart.
Just after hugging his thigh, he asked Wade to owe him a favor. Isn't this bullying an honest person?
But, having said that, what should we do about tomorrow’s 5V5?
If the thigh runs away, it will be difficult to deal with it!
