Chapter 122 Draft Promise
After Honeycutt, Hamilton, Mark and Cole took turns to play, and all of them were easily killed by Wade without any suspense.
Mark's small steel cannon was completely immobile in front of Wade, and Kerr's best speed was more like slow motion in front of Wade.
Tang Tian was the last to appear.
"Come." Wade was a little excited when he saw Tang Tian, and he could see that he was coming for Tang Tian.
Tang Tian nodded, took the ball from the staff, saw that Wade was about to get close to him, and passed the ball directly to him.
Wade froze for a moment with the ball.
"Serve." Tang Tian said.
In a one-on-one duel, there are actually many details in it, such as the one in front of you, whether or not the opponent should serve.
This detail may seem unimportant, but to Tang Tian, who can only shoot three-pointers, it is very important.
Wade nodded and waved the ball to Tang Tian.
Tang Tian caught the ball and made a quick three-pointer.
After Procopio's guidance, Tang Tian has adjusted his 3-point shooting habit. After catching the ball, he did not put it under his crotch, but made a quick shot by pushing the ball directly on his chest.
Wade flew over, but still missed the ball and was thrown by Tang Tian.
"Shh!"
Tang Tian's rushing three-pointer hollowed into the net.
There was a shout from the sidelines, and Kerr and the others were a little excited at the moment.
Although there is a competitive relationship between the five people, they are actually a small team to challenge Wade in turn. They are also excited when Tang Tian scored a goal.
"You're very smart." Wade couldn't help but praise.
"Good luck." Tang Tian replied with a smile.
In fact, the ball was really lucky just now. He was a rush shot, and there was no certainty that he would score. Moreover, if Wade knew his careful thinking in advance, and he was quicker, he would definitely be able to cover him.
The second ball, with the experience of the previous ball, Wade did not give Tang Tian a chance to shoot. In the case of being close, Tang Tian reluctantly shot, although he was not covered, he directly threw a three without sticking out.
This is Wade's one-on-one defensive ability. The strength of the league's second point guard is still very strong.
The two offensive balls ended, the two exchanged positions, and Wade took the ball and attacked Tang Tian.
Wade holds the ball, chooses the same style of play as before, and pushes directly.
Tang Tian's prediction was very good, and Wade didn't have a good chance to shoot after the physical confrontation between the two.
Wade dribbled the ball back to the three-point line with a smile on his face.
Tang Tian's physical confrontation ability is much better than he imagined.
James also came to the sidelines at this time.
Wade reorganized, he stepped up to Tang Tian, and then made an iconic European step for a layup.
Tang Tian had a pre-judgment, stepped back to grab the position of Wade's second foot, and then reached out to interfere.
Wade didn't expect Tang Tian to be able to grab it so accurately. After the jump, the lever shot was disturbed, and the shot actually slipped out of the basket!
After watching James, his face was full of surprise, and he smiled and chatted with Riley and Spoelstra on the side.
Wade was guarded by the next ball, the smile on his face was reduced, it seemed that he was a little serious.
For the second ball, Wade directly chose to accelerate the breakthrough after changing direction.
Wade's strongest breakthrough is his speed, which is also the origin of his "Flash" nickname.
With this change of direction, Tang Tian only felt a gust of wind flashing past him, he judged it, but his body couldn't keep up with that speed at all.
Wade passed Tang Tian and rushed into the inside line with a one-handed dunk.
"Ooh!"
Cole and the others let out a burst of exclamation, this speed is really terrifying.
Tang Tian shook his head helplessly. It seemed that if he wanted to guard against Wade, he had to wait until he dropped his weight.
After Wade dunked, he smiled and patted Tang Tian's butt before walking back to Riley and the others.
The duels of the five players were all over. Tang Tian scored a goal and defended Wade. The performance can be said to be quite eye-catching.
After watching it on the side, Fagan finally understood why Tang Tian dared to say that he was only training the Heat family. This was because he had absolute confidence in his own strength, and he did have absolute strength.
The discussion over there soon came to a conclusion, Spoelstra left Tang Tian and Cole behind, and then let the other three go first.
"We're going to work hard to get a first-round pick and get you," Spoelstra told Kerr.
Kerr nodded, and the Heat made a draft promise to him.
When Cole and his agent also left, Spoelstra called Tang Tian and Fagan over.
Riley followed suit at this time.
"I heard from Dan, you want to be selected in the second round?" Riley looked directly at Tang Tian and said.
Tang Tian nodded.
"Tang wants to sign a guaranteed contract with the team for one to one to two years." Fagan also said it more directly.
This kind of thing can be discussed later when the contract is negotiated, but since Tang Tian only chooses the Heat for trial training, it is almost the same to say it sooner or later.
Riley glanced at Tang Tian in surprise, apparently he rarely encountered such a rookie.
Spoelstra and Riley stopped talking, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Riley took Spoelstra to the side to exchange a few words, and also called Wade and James over.
After a while, Riley came back, looked at Tang Tian with a smile and said, "We will select you with the 31st pick."
Riley's opening was a serious draft promise, more formal than Kerr's previous one.
After all, the Heat only had the No. 31 pick this year. Although they told Kerr earlier that they would try to trade for a first-round pick to select him, there are still a lot of variables, but picking Tang Tian with the No. 31 pick is a sure thing. .
Wade smiled and gave Tang Tian a thumbs up. Obviously, he should have said something for Tang Tian in this decision.
After giving the thumbs up, he and James continued to train on their own.
"However, in order to prevent you from being chosen by others before, we need to create a fake news later." Riley's eyes were gleaming at this time.
False news?
Tang Tian and Fagan both looked at him suspiciously.
"We're going to put out the news that you didn't do well in this workout, focus on your dribbling, passing deficiencies, and let your current draft market drop, so we can make sure we can Picking you at 31," Riley continued.
This move is actually quite common in the draft. The Spurs and Leonard did this at the beginning. Leonard's draft market was in the top ten, but such an operation directly allowed the Spurs to take the 15th pick. He chose to go.
Tang Tian nodded, Riley himself made the draft promise, and with his current draft market at the end of the first round, in order to ensure that in case, this operation is no problem.
Thanks to Luo Jiuyou Guiyu, Xingfeng Xiaoye, Duan Zibiao, Stallion, and Harem for the rewards.
