Hanamichi's first stop was the Los Angeles Clippers, who had the second pick in the first round!

Hanamichi was very much attracted to the big city of Los Angeles, the Staples Center, and the Staples Arena.

But if it was the Clippers at the Staples Center, Hanamichi would decline the offer!

In addition to the current Clippers' terrible management.

(The Clippers have changed 13 head coaches in 20 years and do not have a set of established tactics)

It was also because if nothing unexpected happened, the purple and gold Lakers would make a great effort to sign the "Big Shark" next year (1996).

Then they would trade some cash and players for the "Caucasian Snake"!

Everyone knows what happened afterwards!

1999-2002, three consecutive championship dynasties!

Hanamichi entered the NBA to kick their asses.

Instead of being suppressed by them at the Staples Center every day and being speechless!

Coming to Staples Center, Clippers head coach Bill Fitch was very satisfied with Hanamichi's tryout results!

Barefoot height: 214.02cm,

Height with shoes: 216.86cm,

Body fat: 6.5%

Standing reach: 288.48cm,

Weight: 113.57kg,

Wingspan: 228.155cm,

Four-point movement in the three-second zone: 11.67 seconds

3/4 court sprint (22.86 meters): 3.27 seconds

Standing jump: 89.01 cm,

Standing reach: 368.49cm,

Run-up jump: 110.36cm,

Run-up reach: 380.84cm.

It can be said that after another round of strengthening and hard training.

The dynamic and static data shown by Hanamichi are no less than that of the "Great Shark" when he first entered the league!

And the performance of Huadao in open shots, shots after receiving the ball, and interference shots at various positions is remarkable.

Especially in the three-pointer that big men are not good at, Huadao also made 6 of 10 open shots, which can be regarded as icing on the cake!

If there is a flaw, it is that Huadao is slightly worse in dribbling.

In the obstacle dribbling, it took more time than the standard!

But this is normal for big players!

Clippers head coach Bill Fitch assured Huadao:

"Flower, we will seriously consider you!"

"But the second pick in the first round~I mean to trade down the pick as much as possible."

"At the same time, I hope you can keep the content of this tryout confidential as much as possible and don't participate in other teams' tryouts!"

Before Huadao opened his mouth, Simmons said before Huadao:

"No problem at all, we are waiting for your good news!"

After that, Simmons took Huadao out of the Staples Center in a friendly atmosphere.

But Simmons brought Hanamichi to the New Jersey Nets!

"Hey! Didn't we get the guarantee from coach Bill Fitch?"

Sitting on the plane to New Jersey, Hanamichi asked Simmons.

The implication was why he had to go to other teams for tryouts.

Simmons said disdainfully:

"That old fox is lying!"

"He is reluctant to use the second pick to select you, and he has no bargaining chips, and only one second-round pick is left!"

"He is thinking about shit! Such a guarantee is not counted at all!"

Hanamichi suddenly realized.

In fact, the reason why coach Bill Fitch did not dare to use the second pick to select Hanamichi was because he did not trust the physique of Asians.

From the examination of his team doctor, it is unanimous that Hanamichi, who has such amazing talent, does not have the bone density of black people!

Maybe after entering the NBA, after high-intensity training and competition, he will be injured and lose this athletic talent.

Bill Fitch didn't dare to gamble with his career, after all, he had just been in office for 2 years!

Next, Hanamichi and Dasma tried out separately without stopping, and finally met in Toronto, the capital of Canada!

Landon Malone, the head coach of the Raptors, was very troubled by the two tryout results in his hands!

"Man, you have to believe me, our Raptors will definitely choose your people with the No. 7 pick!"

"But the problem now is that both of them are so good, it is difficult for us to decide who to choose now?"

"This is a difficult decision!"

Simmons laughed:

"I think my players will be very happy to hear your guarantee!"

"As for which player you choose, I have no right to interfere!"

"Then... we will leave first and not disturb you!"

"I hope to hear good news from you at the draft in June!"

After that, Simmons laughed happily.He left the Copps Stadium (temporary home of the team) with Hanamichi and Das.

Landon Malone was left with a headache!

This scene happened to be seen by the team's general manager and executive president Masai Ujiri!

"Man, I think you're in trouble!"

Landon Malone said with a wry smile:

"Yes, there is a very difficult problem now!"

After that... he continued to ask meaningfully:

"If there is a choice between eating hot dogs or cornbread, which one do you choose?"

General Manager Masai Ujiri heard the meaning and said:

"Oh, I think this problem should be reported to the boss~ After all, he has the final say on what to eat for lunch!"

"... But I will suggest to the boss..."

"What?"

"I would suggest... eating cornbread sandwich hot dogs!"

Coach Landon Malone shook his head repeatedly:

"No No No, that's impossible. You know we only have one spot in the first pick!"

"We are lucky to pick one player at that position. Other teams are not blind!"

Masai Ujiri smiled and said:

"That's why I am the general manager and you are just the head coach!"

"Leave these things to me~"

"As for you, what you need to do is to play tactical results in the new season~to keep your job!"

After that, Masai Ujiri took out his mobile phone and called the boss Timothy Lewek.

The newly established Raptors are held by the Canadian local group Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment Group.

Its CEO Timothy Lewek is the first boss!

"Hi! How are you lately~"

Although Masai Ujiri is the general manager of the team, he is also one of the executive presidents of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment Group.

So he is also an acquaintance and good friend with the real boss and CEO of the group, Timothy Lewek! So he can talk very casually.

"Not very good, old friend, you know that many of the league teams under its control have not produced good results recently!"

"You actually called me! Is there something wrong with the basketball team?"

Timothy Lewick has been working hard to save the operations of the teams under his control in many leagues.

As soon as he heard Masai Ujiri calling, he suspected that something was wrong with the basketball team.

"Hey! Man, there is a good opportunity now!"

"A good opportunity that even David Stern envied!"

"Boss, I have to tell you in advance!"

"Our Raptors are going to make a fortune!"

Masai Ujiri raised his voice and said excitedly.

Businessmen value profit. When Timothy Levik heard the good news of making money, he also became interested and said:

"Oh, my good friend! I knew it was right to send you to keep an eye on the Raptors!"

"So... what do you mean by making a fortune?"

Masai Ujiri explained:

"Don't we have a first-round pick?"

"According to the plan, I discussed with the head coach and took down the main point guard of this year's NCAA championship team~Damon Stoudemire!

But there is another MOP of the championship team~Flower from the flower-growing family!"

"You know, he is a guy who [brings his own traffic]..."

Before he finished speaking, Timothy Levik Ke interrupted:

"Yes, I have heard that too. Now that old guy David Stern has been using the media to report on the red-haired guy!"

Masai Ujiri continued:

"Yes, yes, that's right! So this is an opportunity!"

"He just finished his tryout in our gym and his results are excellent."

"I want to talk about him~ This is a great opportunity to make a fortune!"

"Once we sign him, the economic benefits we will bring will definitely exceed your imagination!"

"More importantly~ the team's record~ can also be guaranteed!"

"So..."

At this time, Masai Ujiri also showed his true intentions!

"So, Boss! I want to trade both players!"

"Dude, do as you say! I only have 3 years, and the next 3 years of the team are all up to you!"

"The Raptors are a new team to the NBA, and I want them to perform well in 3 years and sell at a good price!"

(The Raptors were acquired by Larry Tanenbaum in 1998!)

Masai Ujiri also knew what Timothy Lewek was thinking, and he directly assured:

"OK! Boss, leave it to me..."

After finishing the call, Masai Ujiri turned around and shook his phone to Landon Malone to show off:"Done! Leave the rest to me!"

"I'll do my best to take care of the people! As for the team's performance..."

Landon Malone excitedly hit his left palm with his right hand:

"Make sure to exceed expectations!"

"So, everything is ready! Just waiting for the east wind!"
