Chapter 13 Draft Prediction
When Lin Yu arrived, enthusiastic fans immediately blocked him.

"Lin Yu! Lin Yu is here! It's him!"

"Oh my god! He's so handsome! Even more handsome than he looks on TV!"

"Is this our chosen one, Chamberlain of Oklahoma?"

"No, I think he should be Oklahoma Duncan!"

The chosen one!
When this title is mentioned, many fans will naturally think of the 'Little Emperor' LeBron James.

Using such a name to describe Lin Yu is enough to show how much importance is placed on Lin Yu.

What really made Lin Yu feel famous was that he was "blocked" at the entrance of the stadium.

没错，就是字面意思。

The entrance of the Gallagher-Eibar Arena was blocked by a large group of fans.

In addition to many Oklahoma University students, there are also many middle-aged fans in their thirties and forties.

Some fans wore Lin Yu’s No. 25 jersey, and some held up today’s newspapers, wanting to take photos with Lin Yu.

They gathered here to meet Lin Yu, the chosen son of the Cowboys in the future.

Lin Yu was speechless.

Damn it.
Oklahoma Duncan, what is this name?
I don't know how to smile and eat T.

However, if you want to talk about Chamberlain, the legendary Zhang Erwan, then...
Lin Yu was naturally very generous to his first batch of fans.

Various autographs and group photos allowed Lin Yu to enjoy the treatment of an NBA star in advance.

After getting rid of the fans, Lin Yu walked into the stadium.

Tony Allen saw fans outside the stadium who had not yet dispersed at the gate.

It's like eating a box of lemons, the taste is sour as soon as you open your mouth.

"Lin, you are so popular!"

"I don't want to be so popular. Dealing with fans is also a hassle."

I also want to experience these troublesome things!
Tony glanced at Lin Yu, whose handsome face was comparable to that of a Hollywood movie star, and knew that he probably wouldn't have the chance to experience this kind of "troublesome thing".

"By the way, Lin, have you seen your draft ranking and scouting report?"

Draft pick rankings!

Scouting report!

Lin Yu also became interested, and he was also curious about how the media and scouts would evaluate him.

"After breakfast, I came to the gym. I haven't had time to see what people think of me yet."

"You better take a look for yourself!"

As they talked, they came to the locker room.

Tony took out his laptop and handed it to Lin Yu for him to look at.

ESPN Draft Network directly ranked Lin Yu at the 15th pick at this time.

It also explains why Lin Yu is only ranked 15th.

"Lin Yu's talent is obvious, but he has only participated in one game so far, and there are too few games to refer to, so he is placed 15th."

ESPN Draft Network's reasoning isn't surprising.

After all, even the media cannot be too "spectacular".

The quality of a game cannot determine the quality of a player.

What really interested Lin Yu was his own scout report. As a professional scout, his reports were actually very accurate.

Take Brother Goji as an example.

He lacks concentration and passion on the court, and his competitive spirit is not comparable to his physical condition.

This is clearly reflected in the scout report. As predicted by the scout report, Goji has not been very competitive since entering the league.

Generally speaking, scout reports are divided into two parts: strengths and weaknesses, and Lin Yu's is no exception.

Lin Yu's scouting report.

Advantages: His running, jumping and first step are off the charts, and he can easily beat most opponents in the same position.

Abnormal jumping speed (basically no need to bend the knees), which is a clear advantage in rebounding.

Lin Yu's excellent lateral speed and defensive acumen give him the potential to become a top defender.

He has a very selfless playing style, is good at assisting teammates, and has excellent basketball IQ.

Disadvantages: At present, Lin Yu has not shown his shooting except for breakthroughs, and there may be some problems in shooting.

The offensive means may be too single and easy to be targeted by the opponent.

There is currently no evidence of competitiveness or leadership ability.

There are too few reference competitions at present, and further observation is needed.

Draft template: Wilt Chamberlain!
There is more than one draft report for Lin Yu, as scouts from many teams in the league have written draft reports for Lin Yu.

But they are basically the same among each other.

The biggest difference is the draft template, from Chamberlain, Garnett, Duncan in the interior, to Bird, and then to Magic.

It can be said that it is a template for a scouting report.

After reading it, Lin Yu had to say that the report issued by the scout was indeed very professional.

His strengths and weaknesses are now fully reflected in this scouting report.

However, Lin Yu didn't care about the current shortcomings at all.

First of all, it's not like he has no shooting at all.

The closer you are to the basket, the easier it is to score.

This is an indisputable fact on the basketball court.

Compared to his unstable shooting, his more efficient breakthrough to the basket is undoubtedly a better choice.

As long as Lin Yu waits until the end of this season and receives system rewards for the honors he has gained.

Whether it is projection or other shortcomings, nothing is a problem.

After reading the scout report, Lin Yu continued to train.

In the outside world, as Lin Yu's draft pick and scouting report came out, there was a lot of noise.

Some media and fans believe that no matter how talented Lin Yu is, he received such high praise in just one game and got the 15th pick in the first round.

This is too outrageous!

Even the Clippers' general manager, Lord Baylor, publicly and directly criticized the team when facing an interview with reporters.

"I know the media needs traffic, and I also know that Lin Yu is very talented."

"But he got the 15th pick in the first round after just one game. Isn't that too high? If he plays a few more games, he can enter the lottery zone?"

"It's crazy that a team tanked all year and drafted a rookie who only played a few games!"

"I think a large part of the reason why Lin Yu is ranked so high now is the result of media hype."

"I don't understand why the media hypes him up just because he has yellow skin?"

"Jumping high and running fast are indeed the talents of basketball players, but basketball players need more than just these talents!"

The prince basically believes that Lin Yu’s current ranking was hyped up by the media.

In fact, this kind of thing is indeed too exaggerated, and it is no wonder that Prince Beile thinks that Lin Yu was hyped up by the media.

David Harrison has been famous since high school and was the top center in the Big 12 Conference last season. His current best ranking is 30th.
