Every year before the draft, some media will give some famous stars from the NBA league as a reference for this group of young people, and these people are also called template players, this article to take stock of the current top ten superstars in the original draft of the template characters.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" > tenth place Embiid template Olajuwon</h1>
Embiid was the first center of the year during the draft, he was well-rounded in attack and defense, and he had some delicate skills rare among big players, plus he was also from the African continent, so naturally some people compared him with Olajuwon, the first star in the history of the NBA. Olajuwon's fame skill is the dream dance steps of the inner line, and Embiid's footsteps, although not as impressive as a big dream, are also the first-class level in the active service.
Embiid missed many games due to his own injuries at the beginning of his career, but after his physical condition was stabilized, his performance was worthy of the top center, and in the past season Embiid became the second star of MVP, and if he can successfully lift the championship Gold Cup in the next three years, then his achievements will be closer to the template of the past.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" > ninth place Thick-browed Brother Davis template Garnett</h1>
In 2012, Davis became a champion almost without suspense on the night of the draft, and even without playing in a professional game, he was selected for the U.S. men's basketball dream team at the Olympic Games that year, and its starting point was not high. In the early years, because his thick eyebrows often played the outside line, his technique was extremely delicate, coupled with his thin and tall body shape and excellent arm span, people also used a generation of star striker Garnett as a template for thick eyebrows.
The career trajectories of the two are actually not small similarities, when they entered the league, they were entrusted with heavy responsibilities in a non-strong team, and the team was difficult to touch the Gold Cup while having excellent personal data, and then after the transfer and the joint reinforcement, the two also won the first championship trophy of their careers. Compared to Garnett's ability to thick eyebrows is not a problem, but his relatively gentle personality puts him a distance from a true Leader like Garnett.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="7" > eighth place Jokic template Gasol Jr</h1>
Jokic became the league's regular season Most Valuable Player last season, which was a remarkable achievement. First, this is the first time since Willis Reed that a second-round show has become the regular season MVP, and second, it proves that Jokic's organizationally oriented non-mainstream center play has also been recognized by experts across the league.
In fact, in Jokic's rookie period, some people compared him with a technical center in the league, Gasol Jr., at that time, in the Grizzlies, Gasol Jr. also undertook a lot of organizational tasks in addition to the attack and defense of the inside, and his soft ball sense allowed him to successfully play the role of a team axis, but from the peak of the two, Jokic's height was better than the template at that time.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="9" > seventh place Harden template Ginobili</h1>
In fact, Harden also has a good physical fitness in his youth, and fast attacks and violent dunks are also commonplace, but Harden is reluctant to use this way as a conventional weapon, so he has the ability to create kills to the extreme, and in many rounds he can rely on his cleverness to win fouls and stand on the free throw line.
Such a style of play can not help but remind people of the Spurs' former Argentine demon Ginobili, who relied on the unpredictable snake-like breakthrough to find a good opportunity in the opponent's interior line, and the Spurs can become the final championship in 2005 is inseparable from his inspiration, because of the positioning of the team, Ginobili often plays as a substitute, but the glory of his four championships in his career is still Harden's goal.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="11" > sixth Leonard template Gerald Wallace</h1>
On the night of the 2011 draft, the Spurs exchanged George Hill, who had been cultivating for many years, as a chip to win leonard, which many people thought was a loss-making trade for the shrewd Popovich, but over time people discovered that Leonard was an unpolished piece of jade.
During the draft period, the outside world will be once into the All-Star team Gerald Wallace as Leonard's template, Wallace because of his courageous playing style is called Sakuragi Hanamichi, in 2010 is played 18 + 10 data, is a golden oil type of outside player, but from Leonard's subsequent trajectory to see that his career is more successful than the original template.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="13" > fifth place Curry template Raouf</h1>
Years after Curry became famous, people turned over his draft report that year, and Rauf's name appeared in the column about the player template in the data, which is a relatively unfamiliar word for non-hardcore fans.
In fact, as a 90-year-old tanner, Raough was also a capable scorer in his active years, with nearly 20 points in his peak and the fastest improving player in the season. However, in hindsight, Curry's template was obviously chosen to be a bit conservative, and in the sixth year of his career, Curry added the championship and MVP at the same time, which is by no means comparable to his template.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15" > fourth place Durant template Maddy</h1>
If it weren't for Auden's university dominance, it would have been a very likely 2007 for Durant's baggage. Tall and arm-length, he has a precise shooting ability, which allows him to play extremely eye-catching statistics in college, and he has also been compared with the two-time scoring champion Maddy because of this style of play.
After entering the league, Durant's progress is also obvious, after improving his strength, Durant has won the league's scoring champion 4 times, and Auden, who is plagued by injuries, is even more bleak, and Durant's career has been completed after joining the Warriors to win two championships, and his achievements are beyond Maddy's reach.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="17" > third place Doncic template Joe Johnson</h1>
As early as before entering the NBA, Doncic killed four parties in the European giants Real Madrid, and led the previously unknown Slovenia to the top of Europe in the national team, which made him enjoy a high popularity, and he also joined the Dallas Mavericks with a high pick in the 2018 draft, and his template in the report at the time was Joe Johnson.
Given the unsatisfactory situation of some European stars in the history of the NBA in the United States, people are not without concern about Doncic's NBA career, and from this point of view, it is acceptable that he can reach the height of seven-time All-Star Joe Johnson. However, Doncic was not satisfied with the achievements of the template, and he became a player in the league in the second year of his career with excellent performance, a feat that Joe Johnson had never achieved in his life.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="19" > the second digit alphabet brother template Batum</h1>
The rookie period of the alphabet brother is far from today's scenery, although the external conditions are extremely excellent, but the technical roughness makes it difficult to associate him with the future superstar, at that time, Batum as the iconic figure of the outer gate gate became the template of the alphabet brother, many people think that if the alphabet brother can reach the height of Batum bucks is also worth it.
What followed was much to people's surprises, under the careful tuning of the manager, the alphabet brother burst out of amazing potential, and while winning the most valuable player in the regular season, he led the Bucks to win the championship this year, far exceeding the original estimate.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="21" > first James template magician Johnson</h1>
In high school, James showed mature organizational skills and a big picture view, and he often stood on the number one position at six feet and eight inches tall, which could not help but be reminiscent of the magician Johnson of the year, who was also tall and skilled in passing.
After james, although he briefly played the main point guard, he still appeared as a small forward mostly in his career, although from the style point of view, he and the former template magician have gradually drifted away, but in terms of achievement, they are one of the figures on the tip of the league pyramid.
