Chapter 504 Disadvantages
But Wang Zhizhi is still the position of power forward/center who is used to playing. Wang Zhizhi does play some roles in facing NCAA players, but once he meets NBA players, he will wait to be beaten up.
"What are the shortcomings?" Wang Zhizhi's father asked hurriedly.
His son himself knows that he has some shortcomings, but it doesn't seem too serious in his opinion. Besides, his son has now firmly ranked first in the men's basketball power forward. If the shortcomings are big or very obvious, his son will definitely not be able to play as the men's basketball starting player!
"Brother roughly, his movement speed is slow, his ability to fight, and his ability to defend and rebound are too poor. He has no advantage in the inside game, and he is prone to deformation even when doing movements. Does he still have the ability to stand low."
"In addition, Brother Daji is relatively soft in playing basketball, and Brother Daji is more introverted, which will make it difficult for him to get along in the NBA."
"Of course, Brother Dazhi is not without strengths. For example, his football, pace, feel, and consciousness are all his strengths. Uncle Wang should know that the NBA is the era of centers. People like Brother Dazhi who are not good at physical or confrontation are difficult to gain a foothold in the NBA." Liu Yu could only cruelly tell Wang Zhizhi's father the truth.
But there is another thing that Liu Yu didn't say, that is, Wang Zhizhi was born in the wrong era. If it was the small ball era, a player like Wang Zhizhi would be very popular, but now it is still an era where centers are the main ones, which also makes him completely lose the capital to gain a foothold.
Iverson was also born in the wrong era. If Iverson was also in the small ball era, he would definitely be like Jordan now.
What a pity that these people are born at the wrong time!
Wang Zhizhi's father felt very uncomfortable when he heard what Liu Yu said. It can be said that what Liu Yu said has overturned all his son's efforts over the years. Is it necessary for a person who can only work in the NBA to go to the NBA? It's better to go back to China to play in the CBA!
"Uncle, although what I just told you is true, if the Han people choose Brother Dazhi, they can still help Brother Dazhi improve it. At least I can help Brother Dazhi!"
Liu Yu had never heard Wang Zhizhi's father speak, and immediately felt that it would be a bad thing. Maybe it would be a wrong thing to tell him the facts. It is very likely that he would let Wang Zhizhi not participate in the draft.
So Liu Yu also began to turn his head and think about how to remedy it.
This soon made him think that since Wang Zhizhi's father cares so much about his son, it's okay to help Dazhi brother correct some shortcomings. Liu Yu is still very confident about this. He firmly believes that as long as Wang Zhizhi becomes a Han Chinese, if Chuck Daly is coached next year, he can still help Wang Zhizhi more or less. Not to mention anything else, just say that defense will definitely improve.
"Xiao Liu, do you think it can help you improve it roughly?! How to improve it?!" Wang Zhizhi's father saw hope again.
He obviously believed what Liu Yu said just now. Other people might even lie to you. Liu Yu would never do it. Otherwise, why did he keep helping his son? He valued the potential of his son.
Whoever has no shortcomings? If there are shortcomings, then it will be over if it is corrected! Wang Zhizhi's father believes that Liu Yu can help his son get rid of these shortcomings.
"The Han people will invite a famous coach to coach next season. He has high requirements for the team's defense. I am going to hand over Brother Dazhi to him for training. I believe Brother Dazhi can still perform in a few years."
Chuck Daly has a strong coaching ability. When he coached Meng Yi in his previous life, Christian Letterner could play in his hands. It doesn’t matter that Wang Zhizhi couldn’t play. You should know that Wang Zhizhi is relatively close to players like Christian Letterner. They are all players with soft inside and great shooting from the outside. This also allowed Liu Yu to find a good similarity. This is also the reason why Liu Yu can confidently tell Wang Zhizhi’s father that he can train his son well.
"Really?! That's really great. Xiao Liu, I really thank you. If you don't have you, you will probably not know what it will be like now!" Wang Zhizhi's father replied gratefully.
Indeed, if it weren't for Liu Yu, Wang Zhizhi would probably still go on the road of no return like in his previous life. It can be said that Liu Yu changed Wang Zhizhi's life.
"Where, I also want to let Da Ge contribute more to the country and compete for more honors for the country!" Liu Yu scratched his head and replied.
"That's for sure, but Xiao Liu, I actually think that if you want to go back to the CBA to play in the future, what do you think?!"
Wang Zhizhi's father is still a bit conservative. He also knows that it is unrealistic to ask his son to come back now. After all, his son really wants to play in the NBA, but what Liu Yu said does make it extremely difficult for Wang Zhizhi to play in the NBA in the future. It is better to go back to China to play than to do this.
I can completely use my position in Yanjing to arrange my son to play in the CBA Yanjing team. Besides, my son is not bad at the market. Even if I live in the NBA, I believe that my son can find a good CBA team when he returns to China.
"Uncle, don't do this. You must know that if you have a pension to get for five years in the NBA, you have to get it. Why do you have to let your brother play for three years? Do you think so?!" After Liu Yu heard that Wang Zhizhi's father was about to make Wang Zhizhi unable to survive in the NBA, he hurriedly dissuaded him.
Just kidding, you must get the pension. In the future, every Chinese player who plays the NBA will tell him that he must play for three years before returning to China to play.
The peak years passed in an instant, and the golden age of athletes was only a few years. Being a big star and making a fortune is of course the best result. But there are also many people who left the professional arena early due to injuries or other reasons. In many countries in the world, these athletes often have very miserable ends. Even in China, there are still many retired athletes who have to rely on begging and perform their skills to survive.
There is no pension system in the CBA now, so players who play in the CBA still don’t get a penny after retirement, but the NBA is different. They have a complete pension system, but in the NBA, such things will not happen. This basketball league with the highest commercialization and the best competitive level in the World Cup has already formed a stable NBA pension security system. It can ensure that those retired players have a place to rely on and have a place to support them in the old age.
"What, the NBA has pensions, you can get. Xiao Liu, tell you what happened to Uncle Wang?!" Wang Zhizhi's father heard that NBA players can still receive pensions after retirement. This benefit is too good.
For the sake of his son's future, he hurriedly asked Liu Yu what regulations were there in the NBA pension security system.
Indeed, if they are not NBA players or agents who are often familiar with league operations, they will not know much about the NBA pension security system. At most, they know that there is this benefit, but most of them still don’t know about it.
Because this benefit is also what all NBA players care about, as for those fans, media, etc., it will be OK if you pay a little attention. If it really involves the players' own interests, the players themselves must be clear.
