Ryan West was sitting in a chair on the sidelines, tilting Erlang's legs and holding a pen in his mouth, watching intently more than twenty players on the court trying to express themselves.

   He has a famous surname in the NBA.

  His father is the famous Lakers famous place, the prototype of the legendary NBA-LOGO portrait, Jerry West.

   But from the appearance, people who are not very familiar with the two, it is difficult to recognize that this is the son of old Jerry.

  Ryan West was born by Jerry West and his second wife. It looks more like a inherited mother, only with tall brow bones and deep eyes, especially like his father.

  Ryan's son Chengyin, was recruited by the Memphis Grizzlies as a team scout since 2002.

   He sat in this position for 8 years and came to the Lakers in the 09-10 season. The position is also a scout.

   This season, after the team's son Jess Bass served as the scout director, he cleaned the previous scout team and abandoned two newcomers.

  Ryan West, as the son of the famous place, was certainly not cleaned, he stayed.

  The Lakers' scouting is mainly divided into two parts.

   One is college scouts, which is mainly responsible for digging new college students.

   One is an international scout, responsible for the intelligence of newcomers overseas.

  These two parts are managed by Lakers veteran Owen Thomas.

  He has been a college scout for the Lakers since the 01-02 season.

   And Ryan West does not belong to any of the two parts.

  He is directly responsible for Jess Bass and investigates any potential rookies.

   Of course, for the Los Angeles Lakers, since 1996 when they used Divac to switch to Kobe, they have never received high draft picks and heavyweight rookies.

   After all, the Lakers with Kobe and O’Neal have been championship contenders for a long time. What use is the draft pick?

   This season, the Lakers have given away their 2012 first-round and second-round picks in two trades.

   They only have a 2012 second-round pick from the New Jersey Nets in 10 years.

   It was a three-way deal between the Nets, Rockets and the Lakers. The Lakers cleared Vujacic’s contract and took two second-round picks.

   Among them, the second round of 12 years was bought from the Bucks when the Nets cleared Chris Douglas-Roberts.

   As for the Bucks' 12-year second round signing, it was not the Bucks’ own. It was one of the licking heads that the Bucks got from the Bulls when they traded Salmons with the Bulls for 10 years.

   Therefore, the second round of the pick was actually the Chicago Bulls, and after three rounds of turn, it was in the hands of the Lakers.

  The signing and record of the second round show are in reverse order. The higher the record, the later the signing.

  Unfortunately, the 2011-2012 regular season, the Chicago Bulls record is the league's first.

   So the pick was 30th in the second round and 60th overall.

   is the last place in the draft!

   Then choose Nima?

   By the sixtieth place, the daylily was picked up.

   This also means that the Lakers have to do nothing at the draft conference.

  As long as you can see it, others will also see it, and then choose him.

  If it's you who can't watch...you can't watch it, then don't watch it.

   In short, this order is too awkward and has no transaction value.

   The so-called chicken ribs, it is a pity that the taste of food is abandoned, and the last sign of the second round, even the taste of food is difficult to achieve.

   Can't eat it at all!

   Especially for the Lakers, there are countless top picks in the history, top spot show, and Tanhua show, and the second round is the last...

   Of course, the work of scouts is therefore more busy.

  Because the Lakers don’t have the right draft pick, they need to go to this middle and lower training camp to hunt for treasure.

   First determine who the 60 will choose. Second, let's examine the newcomers.

   They will definitely lose someone, and then they can get a few short contracts, maybe they can find treasure.

   However, Ryan West does not have much hope for this, which is obviously related to the tradition of the Lakers.

   As a giant, located in the center of the west coast of Hollywood, the Lakers never lack starlight, naturally there is no habit of digging gold in the dunghole.

  Teams like the Spurs, Rockets, and Thunder do not like to be dirty or tired. They like to do this kind of work.

   Lakers? Sorry, no need.

   Before coming, Ryan West had a main goal, which was Dalius Johnson-Odom of Marquette University.

   NBA teams will not wait until the training camp to start investigating players. As early as in college, a game of NCAA is a battlefield for scouts.

   Johnson-Odom is a typical old rookie who has the strength in college, but it is difficult to survive in the NBA.

  Hard indexes such as height, weight, and age are all shackles that players like Odom cannot break through, so they can only hover around the NBA goal line.

  The Lakers mainly fancy his vitality on the defensive end, as well as a relatively strong immediate combat ability.

   The position of the Lakers point guard has been a big problem for the past two years. In March they just traded away the old point guard "old fish" Fisher.

   And the defender Dalius Morris, who was selected at the 11th NBA Draft last year, was not as satisfactory as it was used.

   A stout guard like Odom is indeed more in line with the Lakers' employment needs and strategy.

  West came to inspect him for granted.

   And he just defended for the first time, his performance did not satisfy West.

   was pressed directly by the opponent to the inside and scored on the head.

  He is only 6-foot-3 Marcus Damon, and the NBA is taller and stronger than Damon.

   These two years, but during the period of high-quality point guard blowouts, Ross, Curry, Wall, and Irving, one by one, were fierce.

  Odom...

   West thought that the Lakers only had the 60th pick, and knew that he couldn't ask too much.

   Like 6-foot-6 like Fournier, excellent physical examination, ball control, shooting first-class guard, don't even think about it.

   Then, he saw that Ratliff was deflated under Li Liang's defense.

   is quite tough, quite perfect defense, did not give Ratliff a chance.

  After Ratliff's ball came out, Damon caught the ball and flicked Odom's center of gravity.

  Odom is too anxious to prove himself.

  Damon directly dribble the ball from the middle and cut into the three-second zone, just like a hot knife cutting butter, which is extremely smooth.

   Just when Damon was going to make a layup, a strong hand came.

   "Boom", the ball in Damon's hand was smashed!

   is Li Liang from the right.

   Damon didn't expect Li Liang to start so quickly, without the protection of the ball, he was exposed to Li Liang's eyes.

  Li Liang is certainly not soft-hearted.

   James, Durant, Jordan's ball he cut off, a Damon, just holding the ball like holding a watermelon like a layup?

   Dream about it!

  The successful Li Liang took the ball into his arms and then passed it to the outside Fourier.

   "This kid is a bit interesting."

Seeing Li Liang's successful defense twice in a row, West began to turn his attention to Li Liang.

  West turned to find Li Liang's physical examination report, glanced at it, it was mediocre, but there was not much shortcoming.

  Especially considering that this is a Chinese student player, it is good to have such a physical quality.

  Looking at his school information again, it turned out to be Kentucky, this year's champion.

  West remembered, he watched that game, the kid who took the free throw at the last moment.

   An outright drinking fountain. It's useless except for free throws. How does it feel good to defend?

  West decided to keep watching to see if the two **** just had luck.

   And Li Liang soon proved with actual action, luck? Will you show me one?

  Defensive defense does not exist.

  Fournier also feels a little surprised. This Bruce Lee has a good defense.

   After taking the ball, he wanted to cooperate with Li Liang, but found that Li Liang couldn't answer at all.

   He ran out of the three-point line and went there for a stop, and he did nothing.

   So, Fournier took the ball by himself.

   has a great sense of ball control, agile skills and outstanding projection.

   Kim-Ingles is not his opponent. Fournier didn’t use his body. He turned to the inside with pure technical change.

   tossed, hit.

   In the next round, the ball was in Li Liang's hands, and both Funnier and Odom pulled away to see how Li Liang was going to play.

   As a result, Li Liang didn't fight at all.

   He threw the ball to Odom and let Odom handle the ball.

   "This guy doesn't want to attack, or will he not attack?" Ryan West wondered.

  He turned over the information again, and saw that during the ball training, Li Liang's overall evaluation was not high.

   It seems that this kid is well-informed, and grows and avoids weaknesses.

   Sure enough, Li Liang then concentrates on defense.

   Attack with the ball?

   is not good at it, I don’t feel it, I won’t.

   The two sides played back and forth, and Fournier and Odom were good.

   And the three brothers of Missouri worked very well together and cooperated seamlessly.

   was playing, and the three brothers discovered that this Bruce Lee was not a soft persimmon at all.

   He is the hardest stubble among the three people opposite, he has almost no chance of one-on-one singles!

  The three-on-three game is different from the whole game. There is no quick offensive and defensive conversion, and there is no such thing as a fast attack.

   Plus fewer people and more space, so there is less coordination and more opportunities for one-on-one.

   Everyone is taking this opportunity to try to show their personal singles ability.

   There is only Li Liang who keeps on destroying. His defense is really good.

   Although in the system, his [outside basic defense] is only 60, but this is the NBA standard.

   This group of rookies at the middle and lower levels have not really experienced NBA-level defense.

  Li Liang is different. He has played a lot of NBA games in his dream, defended super rookies throughout the game, and singled against Jordan.

  His defensive progress not only comes from the direct addition of the system, but also the experience and confidence accumulated in the virtual real confrontation.

   The two complement each other, and it can even be said that the system will not give him a bonus without the sweat and energy he paid in the confrontation!

  The improvement of the system score is just a simple number, but Li Liang's gains in virtual real confrontation are far more than that.

   "Foul! Foul, you foul!"

  Latcliffe slapped the ball when Li Liang slapped the ball while attacking the basket.

   This ball Li Liang's hand touched Ratliff's forearm, not particularly obvious, but Ratliff shouted foul.

   No way to stop calling fouls, does he still have a chance to show?

  Li Liang raised his hand and said nothing, foul.

  The Missouri trio quickly served from the bottom line. Ratliff retreated to the three-point line and caught the ball directly for a jump shot!

   He can only jump shot, and dare not rush Li Liang one by one.

   "Uh!"

   hit a middle distance, Ratliff was relieved, and finally scored!

  It's too difficult for TM!

  Why is this Kentucky water dispenser defense so powerful?

   No wonder the University of Kentucky can win the national championship this season. It turns out that their bench is so deep and the drinking fountains are so strong?

  The three Missouri brothers felt that they seemed to have a new understanding of the strength of NCAA.

   No wonder they were eliminated in the second round. It turns out that there are people outside, and there are days outside.

  Ratcliffe scored, but this inadequate mid-range jumper has no value in the eyes of scouts.

  Li Liang has not scored so far, because no one has passed him, he has been squatting at the bottom corner and growing mushrooms.

   was originally a three-piece team made up together. Everyone is both a teammate and an opponent, and the ball is not left in their hands to play.

   In another round, Odom successfully intercepted the ball from Damon.

  His defensive strength is still very strong, familiar with Damon's routines, can always prevent once.

  Odom holds the ball out of the three-point line, and then holds the ball to burst!

   Today, he was suddenly stunned by Damon several times. Anyway, he will find some way back.

   reached the inside, Damon stuck Odom, because there is no referee, the two sides move more.

   Ratliff let go of Li Liang to help defense.

  Odom was forced to pull, UU reading www.uukanshu. com brings a little back jumper!

   missed.

   West side of the court shook his head, 188's height, but not good at speed.

   In an NBA-level confrontation, such an explosion and speed can't tear the defense at all.

   The ball hit the basket and three people grabbed a piece.

   No one grabbed, the ball flew out directly.

   flew out of the three-point line and fell into Li Liang's hand.

   This is Li Liang's chance. He hasn't scored yet.

   45 degree angle on the right.

  Li Liang took the ball, didn't have much preparation, didn't aim at it, just threw it!

   The ball flew out of a high arc and then crossed the Nets.

   hit.

  A relaxed three-pointer is still the standard distance of the NBA.

   After scoring, Li Liang touched his nose and felt not sweating much.

   It's really comfortable to play like this, defensive + squat three points, easy + pleasant.

  Li Liang is relaxed and happy, but Ryan West is like a needle felt.

  Because he felt that after Li Liang hit the three-pointer, other scouts around him focused their attention on Li Liang.

   "Oops, this guy is good? If we want to choose, we can't rob anyone, we must act a little."

  Ryan West has a strong interest in Li Liang.

   But the Lakers' signing was decided, if other teams are also interested in him, they can not grab anyone.

   must first start to be strong!

   Although Ryan West did not inherit his father Jerry West's talent for playing, he was inherited and decisive in his decisiveness in doing things.

   has an idea in his mind, no matter what, just give it a try.
