Like when Gasol and Fernando Martin, last year started to Avemario as the first Spanish player to join an NBA team in 2KLeague with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Baloncestístico for this new course, as my longed Andres Montes, the real madness is unleashed. We will have a Spanish team in the best league in the world, competing against Lakers, Celtics and other historic equipment. It is impossible not bancar a DUX Gaming with crazy proposals that end up coming true.
Leading the boat will be RafaelTGR One of the best known faces of the competitive landscape of NBA in Europe, and will be the General Manager of the team. A lifetime achievement award he received him with great enthusiasm. And no wonder: he will be responsible for leading an NBA franchise. Something almost unimaginable.
So we interviewed RafaelTGR and had a good time with him. It was through video call, but the conversation could well be a friendly chat with the occasional snack in hand.
The idea had haunting the minds of the leaders of DUX for a couple of years in a Madrid Games Week he raised the project that he eventually signed by the infinite team does. And there he was told in the future will reach the 2K League . Rafael thought it was typical of what is said at the beginning, but everything was speeding at the time of the pandemic.
What seemed impossible becomes possible
They said they were trying to go and see it so far , impossible to see it. That no longer the NBA . And this summer, while he was on the beach, gave the bombshell. He was nervous because he had to finish the regular season, but he had his head in 2KLeague . So begins a dream that still is about to begin.
So although everything is still finishing being constructed, it is interesting to know what the next steps will be, and we count them Raphael himself. The 2K League works like the NBA when a new club. clubs now have to discard two players to promote equality . Of those players have to catch two or three of those corten . This will be in the expansion draft, within a few months will be the traditional draft. And it will be the first big choice of DUX. The difference between taking two or three, which is quite important influences that if you take three have less than one round draft. Just as we are interested only get two and have a future round to bet on international talent u another player who encaje us.
In addition, players pick of the first court does not have to quedárselos and there are movements to exchange other players or rounds of the draft. It as in the NBA. All that there are monetary compensation to come from Europe. The rest of the protocol and operation makes the organización own .
He also clear that in the near future for him, he s going to spend much time on a plane. The DUX NBA team will be based in Mexico , in a town to be determined, but for reasons of sponsorship and promotions, also will travel to Europe will be playing constantly. Por the NBA that requires us to have a coach than me, because they know they have other commitments like. The coach will be 100% with the players in Mexico, and now we are charting a plan of life for players . With personal trainers to do sports, social life and others. based on the city, which still do not know, we take decisiones .
The importance of values
Because the physical and mental preparation is also important, especially for those who have to cross the pond, away from his family and having to go to the least 8 hours in front of the screen. From few years ago, and the idea this in mind, we saw that there are studies that the more exercise you do and better nutrition have better performance can have. From there, we started talking with experts to sport or social life is part of your routine. We intend to sell the experience of being a person .
Not only that, but that this will also boost values on and off the court. For example, if the city you go, there is a tradition or culture of something, go and caring . And within parties, keep fighting values, effort and competitiveness of DUX . Sabemos is in the 2K League trash-talking much but then to that kids do not have respect for culture, and that s another cosa . To have it controlled at the same they do with the actual basketball, the NBA also gives the same talks to 2K League players on respect and attitude have also off the slopes.
A for all
Of course, and although still early, it is inevitable dream, seeing that even the impossible becomes reality: ring Champions League NBA 2K is in the spotlight? What are the objectives?
In our first season would be a great achievement in hitting play-off. You have to understand that it is a league already formed and the teams are known. We all hope and respect, but with all the desire to win. but within that, we understand that we have to adapt, to make mistakes and learn from them. and from there, we will generate a very international project. This year we need to lay the foundation to collect in the future, but without ruling any .
There are still months to go likening, in fact, sometimes Rafa costs. Yo now I get to play the way My GM of the NBA 2K and say hell, if what I am doing in the world real he tells me he laughs. Not for less.
There is much work behind, and remains to be done. From MGG follow the track to beautiful this project and delighted spend sleepless nights following the path of DUX, and Rafa in the NBA.
