簡單來說：兩次國王驗貨TE都表現不錯，特別是三打三的時候，他的身材優勢對比其他 後衛展現得很明顯。TE兒時的樣版是PENNY，也有跟PENNY交流過，PENNY還有幫他練過 球。另外，他大學轉任控衛，對球隊的幫助很大，這點PETRIE也有在訪談裡提到。 Tyreke Evans interview Reporter: Are you more of a point guard of a two at the next level? Tyreke Evans: That’s a question I get a lot and I don’t even really know myself. I think I’ll be both to be honest, I think I’m a basketball player. Reporter: Did Coach Calipari’s decision to leave for Kentucky effect your decision to come out after one season? Would have returned if he had come back? TE: If he had come back I think I might have stayed, but I’m not sure. I would have put my name in and see what I would have learned. If it wasn’t looking good I would have come back and probably stayed another year. Reporter: When you grew up you studied a lot of Anfernee Hardaway’s game. TE: Yea, he was my favorite player growing up when he was with the Magic. I got to speak to him a lot when I was down at Memphis. Reporter: How did he help you? TE: When I was struggling he told me to keep my head up and he worked out with me a couple of times in the gym. He’s just a great guy. Reporter: How did that turn you around? TE: It did a lot for me. It got my confidence back because at the beginning of the season I was kind of down on myself, but he kept working me out along with Coach Strickland and I improved a lot since then. Reporter: You worked out twice in Sacramento, once in a group and once by yourself. Give a sense of what those workouts were like for you. TE: I think they went great. I knocked down shots when I was working out by myself in the first workout. In the second one I was able to show my strength and my length working against the other guards that were there. I think the GM was real impressed. Reporter: You’re on a short list of guys that they are looking at with the number four pick, how do you think you compare to the other guys on that list? TE: I think I did well; there were a lot of guards there. That was a good group of guys for sure, but I think I did well. Reporter: You have more size than some of the other guys being looked at in that spot and you probably have a more NBA-ready body. How do you think that is going to propel your game to the next level? TE: I know the NBA is a man’s game; there are a lot of strong players out there. I think I’m on my way to getting ready for that. When I get to whatever team that takes me, I’m going to get in the gym and get some more weight on me; I’ll be good. Reporter: Sacramento has a young team right now. Is that something that is appealing to you because you can come in and make a big impact on this team? TE: Sure, I think I can bring a lot to a team right away. It would be Kevin Martin and I, a couple of big guards in the backcourt and I think that would be a good thing. DraftExpress: What have you been hearing from the Kings? TE: They’ve been looking at me a lot. I heard that Memphis has been looking at me; I’ve been hearing a lot of good news so I’m pretty happy. DX: It seems like the Kings are targeting a guy who can provide leadership and help change the team culture, do you feel like you can do that right off the bat? TE: Definitely; while at Memphis I was a point guard and helped to be a leader in the locker room, I would speak out for the team. I think I can come in and do that. DX: Minnesota acquiring that second pick, is that good for you? Do you feel like you can play there? TE: I definitely do; I worked out for them and they liked my size and my ability to create and make people better. DX: One GM told us from your workout that you were the Ron Artest of this point guard class. Do you take that as a complement? TE: I mean I can see that. From the workout I was bullying other players out of the way who weren’t strong enough, so I can see that as being a way to describe me. http://www.draftexpress.com/article/NBA-Draft-Media-Day-Interview-Transcripts-Part-One--3285/ -- --
