Player file
Brandon roy was selected by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the sixth round in 2006, and then traded to Portland Trailblazers. Brandon roy doesn't have amazing explosive power and super confrontation ability, or even absolute breakthrough speed. But his four-year college career determines that he is an experienced brain player. Roy dribbled well and mastered the rhythm of changing direction. Breakthrough layups and mid-range jumpers are the main scoring methods.
Growing experience
Brandon Roy-Growing up and playing in the NBA is the dream of many basketball players, and being in the top ten of the rookie is even more prosperous, especially for a player who has not been favored by many people before. This is an honor.
Brandon roy is gradually being accepted by everyone, and more and more teams are paying attention to him. Although he is a late bloomer, he is happy to enter the NBA. "Sometimes it's like daydreaming," Roy has been completely immersed in happiness. "My request is not high. Only in the top ten, so I am very satisfied. "
He is the pride of Washington.
Roy has visited several big cities in America, Orlando, Boston, Atlanta and Portland. NBA teams often invite more people to participate in trial training, and Lei Dike often appears beside Roy. The two soon became friends and passed on skills to each other. Roy said to his friend privately, "He (Lei Dike) is really great. I really enjoyed watching him play ball. I am a fan of him now. " And voted for Li Yi: "Brandon is too comprehensive. I have never seen such a good player in college. " There seems to be some deliberate praise, but Roy and Lei Dike have a sincere relationship. Roy once said, "Whenever I hear him talk about me, I can't help feeling proud. I am really honored to be praised by a player like him. "
For a long time, Roy was actually not confident. He thought it would be nice if he could enter the NBA. At first, he didn't think he could enter the top ten, but soon, he found that he could enter the lottery (the top fourteen) or even go further. The top ten are out of reach. You know, no player in Washington University has entered the rookie lottery before, and Roy actually took some responsibility while waiting for the honor-he has become the pride of Washington University.
Roy will dream of what it would be like if he could enter the NBA during the trial and wear the blazers or Lakers jerseys to play on the court. In his view, the sacred temple of a basketball player is getting closer and closer to him. The Sonics also like Roy, but many people doubt whether Roy is willing to come to such a team. "I think they may be mistaken. I'm from Seattle, and I want to go back to my hometown to play, "Roy said firmly in the face of doubts. "I don't care where they are in the league now. Yes, I know they can't make the playoffs, but if they choose me, I will help them realize their wishes. " Many people wonder why Roy entered the NBA until now. The coach of the University of Illinois, Weber, expressed surprise: "He has a good figure, skills and mentality, and he is still in college. I think he is little Kobe. " But even this "little Kobe" has almost no chance to play in the NCAA. After graduating from a high school in Seattle, he tried to get scholarships from those schools in NCAA first-class league three times in a row because of his poor study, but all failed. In the end, Washington University accepted him, but at first he could only sit and watch, not play. Roy walked along the path on the campus of Washington University and began to think about his future. "When a good player leaves high school, someone will always ask,' Where is his future?' "Roy said," I feel very embarrassed. It's a good thing I wasn't the point before I have never been interviewed in a newspaper or on TV, but I still hope that no one can recognize me. This experience makes me reflect all the time. I know not only to perform well on the court, but also to learn to be a good person off the court. "
He broke out in his senior year.
He soon became a member of the University of Washington. In the first-team training, it took him only 45 minutes to fully understand the offensive tactics, which surprised the head coach Omar: "It seems that his basketball IQ is great. You know, many people haven't learned it in a month, but he only needs such a little time. It's amazing. "
In the 2005-06 season, this is Roy's fourth year in college, and he has become a pillar of Washington University. Omar said: "In fact, the game is very simple. Give the ball to Brandon (Roy), and then he can handle everything. You know, when a team has such excellent players, what else do you need to worry about as a coach? " Roy did better than Omar thought. In his senior year, his score soared from last season's average 12.8 to 20.2, and his assists jumped to 4. 1 game. He never sticks the ball in his own hands, nor does he ask for the ball with open arms every time he attacks, nor does he contradict the coach and show his qualifications in front of small players. And as a star player at the University of Washington, he never relaxed his defense. On the court, he hardly considers himself a star. That's why he stands out. Omar once said, "He is good enough. Really, in my opinion, he is the best player this year. When the defender approaches him, he only needs one action to break through him, but when the defender starts to pay attention to his breakthrough, he only needs a jumper to solve the problem, and his defense is satisfactory. "
Omar spared no effort to praise Ai Jiang: "You know, when he was a newcomer, he was the star of our team. I believe he can do it in the NBA. "
There may be people who doubt whether Roy is really as good as Omar said, but Roy doesn't care. "To be honest, I only know that I am going to the NBA, and I will have a good choice." After several storms, Roy seems to remember when he just graduated from high school. "Again, I should not only be a good player, but more importantly, be a good person."
Comprehensive evaluation
He was famous in high school. He had hoped to enter the NBA in the year of graduation, but fortunately he was considering withdrawing from the draft. After four years of training in college, he became the most competitive player among the rookie in 2006. He is not only fully mature in technology, but also excellent in psychological quality. He has no outstanding athletic talent, nor is he a player who only plays with his body. He has a high basketball IQ, and his talent is more outstanding than that of a single person in a five-person team basketball.
Before the 2006 draft, Roy was considered to lack shocking speed and explosive power, and there was not much technical potential to be developed. Many scouts position his future as a role player. But after a season's test in NBA, he has proved that he can be the core of the team. For a long time to come, the Blazers will form teams around Roy, aldridge, the No.1 scholar in 2006, and Oden, the No.1 scholar in 2007. ..
attack
Roy has excellent ball control ability, good at dribbling and changing direction, realistic feint, clear purpose of moving and passing, and good at dealing with detailed balls. Good cutting ability, strong body, not afraid of collision, easy to make fouls. Breakthrough layups and mid-range jumpers are his common scoring weapons. He is strong in singles and rarely reckless. Once close to the basket, he will use one hand to pick the basket or other means, so that the defender can't stop shooting. And he has a natural sense of the defender's position and knows how to avoid blocking. Sliding in the air or sliding the bottom line to reverse the hook, changing hands in the air and changing angles are all his common means. Roy's three-point shooting percentage has been steadily increasing year by year during his college years, and his three-point shooting percentage in the NBA rookie season is not uncommon, but it is already very impressive to record three more points in the sentry post. He is selfless, can create opportunities for teammates, just pass the ball to teammates, is an excellent attack organizer, can calmly judge the situation on the court and make the most reasonable decision.
protect
He is very smart and active on the defensive end, has the ability to fight against the offensive players in three positions, will use the card position to make offensive fouls, keep a close one-on-one man-to-man, be quick-witted, and often steal opponents.
intelligence
Roy is an excellent team leader and won the respect and trust of the whole team in his rookie season. Only three months after he entered the professional league, he won the reputation of an old player who spent five years in the NBA. The reporter accompanying the Trailblazers once said that he fully believed that if someone in the locker room disagreed with Roy, there would be 12 or 13 teammates behind him. Such awe-inspiring magic is rare in the history of pioneers in the past decade, let alone among a rookie. In any case, Roy will always be the most active and strong player, not afraid to take responsibility. Being able to keep a cool head at critical moments became the number one key ball killer in his first year of career.
location
He is an excellent double player, and he is seamlessly integrated in the position of organization and shooting guard. He plays shooting guard most of the time and often plays point guard. He is trustworthy when he is in possession of the ball. The Blazers hoarded a lot of talented point guards in the summer of 2007, but some people still think that Roy is the best candidate for point guards in the future.
Roy's personality and skills are excellent, unobtrusive and friendly, and he is very popular both on and off the court. He won't make trouble outside, he won't make trouble for the team, he won't disturb the morale in the locker room, and he won't talk to the media. He loves basketball and is one of the most active and diligent players in the Pioneer Training Center. Fearing that physical fatigue would affect his health, the general manager and coach of the Trailblazers forced him out of the stadium in the last few games of the 2006-07 season and summer league. He still took the initiative to accompany the team to Las Vegas for training and watching the game.
In the 2006-2007 season, because a bone was born in his left foot, which caused high-intensity sports pain in the NBA, Roy sat off the court wearing special shoes and missed 20 games. This conservative treatment has achieved results, and Roy has hardly been affected by this problem since his comeback. At the end of this season, his knee was swollen because of overwork. In order to insure the team, he was given a truce in the last few games. He only played 57 games in the rookie season, but this did not affect his absolute advantage in winning the title of the best rookie of the season.
