Following the example of his predecessors, the famous reporter said that Pele is expected to become a superstar, and the refusal to train also happened 17 years ago

Before the draft, this year's high-potential rookie Es Bailey refused to try out for other teams. He even suddenly broke the appointment when he had already negotiated the trial process with the Philadelphia 76ers. Unfortunately, the Philadelphia 76ers did not dare to take risks in the end and chose another point guard player VJ Echcomb.

The Hornets, who were in the fourth pick, also chose a "safety card" and took off Duke white shooter Kong Knuppel. When he reached the fifth pick, Anji ignored these things and chose to take Es Bailey off, making his desire to join the Wizards fail. After the draft, it was also reported that Bailey wanted to postpone his arrival in Utah by one week. However, today the Jazz's official website has announced that Es Bailey has arrived in Utah and a press conference will be held for him tomorrow.

Today reporter Marc J. Spears posted on social media that perhaps Bailey's refusal to try out is good news for the Jazz, at least he has already had a similar start as a superstar. The person Marc is talking about is Stephen Curry of the Warriors. Curry played for two seasons at Davidson University. Although his average data was very impressive, Davidson Academy was not in the basketball world. Therefore, even though he averaged 22.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, 5.2 assists per game during his college years, his shooting percentage reached 47% and his three-point shooting percentage was 40%, for NBA teams, Curry's potential is still not as good as those of the prides of heaven like Griffin and Harden.

At that time, Dell Curry, who was Curry's father, was devoted to his son. Because Curry's style of play was very dependent on lineup configuration and required a lot of ball rights in hand, he did not want the Warriors to choose Curry at the time, but he hoped that Curry could go to the New York Knicks with the 8th pick.

At that time, the Warriors were still Monta Ellis, a scorer with strong offense but defensive span. At that time, Curry was the most impressive year for Ellis to perform. In the 2009-10 season, he averaged 25.5 points, 4 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.2 steals per game, with a shooting percentage of 44.9%. But even so, Curry, who had won the starting position when he first entered the Warriors, was not at all inferior around him. He averaged 17.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.9 steals per game in the rookie season, with a shooting percentage of 46.2%, and a three-point shooting percentage of up to 43.7%.

And in his 4-year contract, Curry's three-point shooting percentages were 43.7%, 44.2%, 45.5%, and 45.3%, respectively. It is precisely this stable shooting ability that allowed the team to finally choose to send Ellis away. Everyone knows the story that he won four championship trophys in 8 years and became the undisputed number one shooter in the history of the NBA league.

Although Bailey's behavior before the draft was exactly the same as Curry's at that time, it is impossible for him to reach Curry's height. Espee and Curry are completely different in terms of body shape and style of play.

First of all, Es Pele is a 2.02-meter forward player, his movement speed is not the same as Curry. Although most of his offensive ends in college also come from shooting, his efficiency is very average. His freshman season averaged only 46% of his shooting percentage and 34% of his three-point shooting percentage. As a forward with more easy scoring opportunities, his shooting percentage is not as good as Curry, who was a point guard in college.

Furthermore, Pele's shooting choice has always been criticized. Although Curry will shoot a large number of three-pointers in every game, in most cases, he will only take the opportunity to find an open position after running without the ball. Bailey always likes to rely on his height and forcefully attack without losing positions at all. It is a bit like McGrady's pull-up shot back then. In terms of luck control, Bailey does not have strong breakthrough ability. In the NBA rookie season, he is likely to have to start without the ball.

Whether Bailey's refusal to try out this time was imitating his senior Curry, there is nothing wrong with trying to find a good growth environment for himself, but having the strength but not having enough strength to support him often backfire.
