I am so Accurate

Sun Hao's luck in imitating the previous reporter's words directly made Curry happy.

But this also brought him back to his senses from his dazed state.

Although the process was a little unexpected and a little caught off guard, in terms of this result, it was the best for him!

Because after being selected with a higher pick, Curry's salary and attention from the team will increase.

And after Livingston was traded away, his upper limit in the Warriors was obviously higher.

At the very least, he has a chance to start with Sun Hao!

Oh, by the way, there is also Durant, whom he has had a crush on for a long time! !

Just thinking about it made him happy and excited.

While Sun Hao and Curry were chatting, the draft was still going on.

With the 10th overall pick, the Eagles selected Johnny Flynn.

Historically, Flynn was not able to make his mark in the NBA.

But that has something to do with his luck. He went to the Timberwolves.

You may not believe it, but historically the Timberwolves had the fifth and sixth picks this year, and then they selected two point guards, Rubio and Flynn!

Some people will definitely say that this management team must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.

However, this is not entirely accurate.

Because maybe they were already stupid enough before they got kicked by a donkey.

You know, they did this last year when they had Al Jefferson, but still chose Love.

Talking back to Flynn, historically he would be selected by the Timberwolves together with Rubio. A key reason is that Rubio still had a contract in La Liga at the time.

Flynn was selected as a spare tire. If he plays well, he will be kept. If he plays poorly, he will leave and make way for Rubio, who will land in the NBA in the future.

In fact, as a rookie, Flynn averaged 13.5 points and 4.2 assists per game in his rookie season, which was not bad.

And as a 1.83 meter point guard, Curry is the one he is most compared to in the NCAA.

Just like when the Warriors tried out before, he would also be deliberately arranged to face off against Curry.

His confrontation, speed and explosiveness are all impressive.

The game that made him famous can be traced back to a game he played in the NCAA last season.

In the NCAA last season, the University of Connecticut, with Thabeet, was the top seed.

Syracuse University and UConn led by Flynn met in the regular season.

It was originally a very ordinary game, but that game ended up being recorded in NCAA history.

Because they played 6 overtime games!

Flynn scored 34 points and 11 assists in that game, ultimately helping Syracuse University win.

Now, he was drafted by the Eagles, which is not necessarily a bad thing for him.

With his ability, he still has a chance to achieve what Jeff Teague has done with the Eagles in history.

With the 11th pick, the Grizzlies selected Gerald Henderson;

Henderson is also a very topical person.

Historically, he was drafted by the Bobcats.

At that time, the Bobcats' minor owner was Jordan, and the person who made the selection decision was also Jordan.

The reason is because Henderson's playing style is very similar to his.

When Henderson arrived with the Bobcats, Jordan taught him step by step the fadeaway jumper.

Therefore, the well-known NBA meme was born: Is it so difficult to jump to the highest point and wait for others to fall before taking action?

However, Henderson obviously couldn't do what Jordan said, so in the end, Henderson was built by Jordan to look a bit like Kobe who had a similar body shape to him.

With the 12th overall pick, the 76ers selected Terrence Williams;

With the 13th pick, the Jazz selected Tyler Hansbrough;

There are many players who are unknown in the NBA, but are famous in the NCAA.

For example, Fredette, the "Lonely God" known to many people, and sharpshooter JJ Redick, etc.

Hansbrough is one of them.

When asked about their impression of Hansbrough, the first reaction of fans is probably the gif of his expression and reaction like a monster when he saw Boban Marjanovic.

But if you ask people in North Carolina who is the most famous person in North Carolina, that person is not Jordan, but Hansbrough.

Hansbrough is North Carolina's single-season scoring leader (22.6 points per game) and school history's all-time scoring leader (2,872 points).

Although his talent is relatively mediocre, he has excellent golf intelligence, high morale and is very hardworking.

This is also a key factor in why he still entered the lottery after four years of college.

You must know that most people who have played in college for four years cannot enter the NBA because of lack of talent.

With the 14th pick, the Suns selected Earl Clark.

At this point, this year’s lottery picks are all over.

It was at this time that Sun Hao started to become a little busy.

From time to time, the management of a team would come to say hello to him, leave his contact information, and even reach out to make a "call.me" gesture.

This reminded Sun Hao of his experience when he and Fernandez traveled to Italy together when they were in Europe.

The very elegant female cashier gave him a small note and made the same gesture.

When he went out, he threw the note into the trash can.

Of course, it is difficult for him to throw away these management personnel.

He handed it directly to Su Feng and asked the latter to make a new address book for himself.

Leave a backup, who knows if he can be used in the future.

It wasn't until the second round of the draft was interrupted that Sun Hao felt a little cleaner.

It seems like he can't find peace of mind wherever he sits in this year's draft.

At this moment, Stern came out and announced a deal.

The Warriors traded the Bucks' second-round pick for the Cavaliers' 45th pick, and then used that pick to select Danny Green.

It seems that in the end, West still believes in North Carolina players more.

Green is not the kind of player who can contribute as soon as he comes out.

Historically, he was waived several times in the first two years of his career and was about to leave the NBA.

Later, after arriving with the Spurs and being reused by Popovich, he gradually began to show his personal abilities and became the best 3D player.

But in Sun Hao's team, Green's qualities can be discovered earlier.

At this point, Sun Hao originally thought that this year's Warriors draft was basically over.

But at the end of the second round, the Warriors selected Matthews with the 60th pick!

West: What, this is a multiple choice question? I want them all!

This is, taking down three defenders in one breath!

However, there is still a fundamental difference between the Warriors and the Timberwolves in selecting multiple guards.

Because except for Curry, the remaining two are in the second round, especially Matthews, who was selected at the end, it is still very difficult to stay on the team.

And on the other hand, the Warriors' lineup may fluctuate a lot in the free agent market.

Morrow and Novak had little chance to perform in the team last season, and there is a high probability that they will be given up by the Warriors.

The remaining Maggette and Radmanovic also did not perform very well, and they do not rule out the possibility of being sent away by the team.

In a sense, West chose them to find spare tires in advance.

After the draft, there was naturally a lot of discussion from fans on social media.

This year's group of rookies are full of topics.

Griffin, the No. 1 pick, is the most talked about, followed by Curry.

However, unlike Griffin who received mostly compliments, Curry received more doubts.

This even includes many Warriors fans.

"In order to draft Curry, we gave Livingston away just because of his relationship with Sun?"

"Although I can understand that the management wants to keep Sun, but we already reached the Western Conference Finals last season. How about sending away the team's starting point guard in exchange for a rookie?"

"If we had drafted Curry with the ninth pick, I would have been very happy, but now we have drafted Curry with the fourth pick and given away Livingston. It's hard to understand."

"I have watched Curry's NCAA games. He has a strong shooting talent and has a chance to catch up with Sun. However, he is too thin and his defense is terrible. If he starts with Sun, Sun's defensive pressure will increase exponentially. This will It’s really inappropriate!”

"I also agree with this point of view. If we select a No. 4 pick to only serve as a substitute for the team, it is really inappropriate at this time!"

"Yes, even if we don't select Curry, the probability of Sun staying with the Warriors is very high. This kind of operation is a bit superfluous!"

"I'm afraid that if I choose Curry, Sun won't stay with the Warriors in the end. What should I do?"

…

Amid the discussion among fans, the 2009 NBA free market has begun.

There is no shortage of big fish in this year's free agent market.

The biggest card is naturally Sun Hao.

The whole world knows that Sun Hao signed a one-year contract with the Warriors last season.

Moreover, Sun Hao did not say in public that he would definitely stay with the Warriors.

Before the goddess tells you personally that she has a boyfriend, it's not appropriate for you to have sexual intercourse.

It can be expected that when the free market officially opens, Sun Hao's villa in Oakland will become another Boston North Shore Garden Arena.

After Sun Hao, the second biggest player is Kobe.

Kobe's contract is still the sign-and-trade contract he signed when he traded with Sun Hao.

The contract has a free agent option this summer.

Just before the player's free market opened, Kobe had announced that he was opting out of his contract.

This means that he is also a completely free agent and can sign with any team.

All the Clippers have is a more lucrative contract with the Bird clause.

Of course, after leading the Clippers to their first championship in team history, and boasting at the championship parade that he would bring more championships to the Clippers and Los Angeles, most people believe that Kobe has no reason to leave the Clippers.

Kobe's move out of his contract should be just to get a new big contract.

Then there is another big fish who has not yet decided to opt out of his contract, but can also cause a shock in the market, Yao Ming.

Yao Ming's contract situation was already very clear when he and Sun Hao played in the Olympics last year.

He has consecutive player options, this year being the second and final one.

If he chooses to opt out of his contract, this year's free market will really be a bust.

In addition to these three, there are still many fat fish in this year's free market.

Boozer, Odom, Turkoglu, Ben Gordon, Kidd, Marion, Rasheed Wallace...

As well as David Lee, Villanueva, Brandon Bass, etc. who did not get their contracts renewed in 2005 but performed well in the contract year.

This will make the free market lively for a while.

Before the free market opened, Sun Hao took Scarlett and Little Beijing to Hawaii, and his commonly used mobile phones were also turned off.

His previous experience in the draft made him realize that he would definitely not be able to stop this summer.

So instead of being harassed non-stop, he simply ran away to avoid the limelight and came back when the free market was almost settled.

After all, although he has not said anything about his choice to stay with the Warriors in public, in fact, after going through a series of events, it is already settled that he will stay.

He only kept a spare mobile phone next to him. Only Gu Yi knew this mobile phone number, not even Fu Paul.

The reason even Rich Paul doesn't know is that he is now not only Sun Hao's agent, but also James's.

This day was also the day before the free market officially opened. Many people who wanted to visit Sun Hao came up empty-handed.

However, Sun Hao's phone still rang.

It was Gu Yi who called.

Sun Hao had told Gu Yi before not to fight if it was not a very important matter.

So he picked it up quickly.

"Yao asked me to tell you that he is planning to stay in Washington!"

What Gu Yi said is indeed very important.

Sun Hao was a little surprised by the news, but he could also guess it.

He still understands Yao Ming's character.

In history, he once had the opportunity to join forces with Kobe, but in the end he did not go.

The fundamental reason is because of his "loyalty".

He felt that if a team trained him, he should always stay and play there.

At this point, Sun Hao actually had the same idea at the beginning.

However, after being traded by the Mavericks, he also became dependent on the situation.

Moreover, Yao Ming's decision is somewhat related to the Wizards' performance last season.

The Wizards reached the Finals last season and have another chance to strengthen this summer. He really should stay.

However, from the perspective of Sun Hao, a time traveler, Tracy McGrady has received a blocking shot just like in history. It is not known whether his status will decline as precipitously as in history.

If so, then Yao Ming's life in the next two years will not be easy.

He called Yao Ming.

Basically, just chit-chat and some blessings.

After all, if McGrady doesn't decline like in history, we can still expect the Wizards to strengthen.

On July 1, the NBA free market door officially opened.

Although no official contract was signed due to the freezing period, many verbal contracts and rumors have been exposed.

Then, the first signing was a bust.

Yao Ming announced that he had jumped out of his contract!

The management of each team looked excited and expectant.

This new big fish entering the pond is as fat as Sun Hao and Kobe!

But soon, they became bored.

Because not long after Yao Ming jumped out of his contract, the Wizards broke another piece of news.

They reached a 4-year, 58 million contract with Boozer!

Then, they announced that they had reached a five-year, 80 million maximum salary contract with Yao Ming!

In other words, Yao Ming jumped out of his contract just to give the team room to sign Boozer! !

Both contracts have maximum salaries. The only difference is that Boozer was a rookie in 2002, and the starting salary of the maximum salary is 5% less than Yao Ming's salary cap.

In addition, there are differences in contract options.

Boozer's last year's contract option is a team option, while Yao Ming's contract, like his previous contract, has a player option starting in the third year.

After signing these two big contracts, the Wizards' salary suddenly exploded.

But obviously, it's worth it.

Because from the perspective of the Wizards management, this may be their only chance to keep Yao Ming.

And it is foreseeable that in order to relieve salary pressure, the Wizards will have some "fire sale" transactions and a large number of minimum-salary signings in the future.

Let’s come back to the Wizards’ lineup.

Although Boozer's reputation is much lower than that of Garnett and so on, this can be regarded as a lineup of the Big Three!

What Tatum and Stern said when they first communicated began to come true.

The emergence of the Celtics' Big Three has created a bad atmosphere in the league!

With two big signings in a row, the Wizards started a strong dominance mode on the first day of free agency.

But on the second day, the protagonist quickly changed.

Switched from Wizards to Clippers.

The Clippers directly reached a four-year contract extension with a maximum salary of 107 million with Kobe.

This contract will guarantee that Kobe will play for the Clippers until the 2013~2014 season.

In the last season, the annual salary of this contract will reach 30 million+ US dollars.

This will also make Kobe the first person to receive this salary after Jordan.

What's more worth mentioning is that there is something very special in this contract: the right to veto transactions.

During the contract period, if the Clippers want to trade Kobe, they must obtain Kobe's consent.

The Clippers can be said to have given Kobe their greatest respect.

Some people will definitely ask why there is only a 4-year contract.

Because the NBA has a 38-year-old clause, after this contract is fulfilled, Kobe can renew his last big contract with the Clippers.

After renewing Kobe's contract, the Clippers immediately renewed Odom's contract with a four-year, 33 million contract.

This contract renewal can be said to be quite cheap.

Because no matter how you look at it, Odom's market price is in the tens of millions.

But for Odom himself, his half-season with the Cavaliers caused his value to plummet. If the Clippers hadn't rescued him, he might have gone for the minimum salary.

So it is completely understandable that he is willing to reduce some salary to renew the contract.

At this point, the Clippers have basically retained last season's winning lineup.

Although the Wizards added Boozer and his strength has greatly improved, after all, it still needs to be adjusted, and it is difficult to say whether McGrady's status is good or bad.

Considering these factors, the Clippers will still be the strongest team in the new season.

After two days, the free agent market is indeed a bit exciting.

However, with this start, this year's free market is destined to not be too quiet.

On the third day, more big fish began to swim into the new lotus pond.

First there is Boston.

The Wizards, their biggest competitor, have strengthened their ranks, so naturally they can't be content with others.

They signed "Roaring God" Rasheed Wallace with two years of full mid-level salary and a contract worth about 11 million.

Although Wallace is 34 years old, he was still able to contribute 12+7 data with the Pistons last season.

This will definitely be a big reinforcement for the Celtics.

Let's talk about the Pistons. After letting Wallace go, they turned around and signed Ben Gordon with a five-year, 58 million contract.

Gordon was the third overall pick in 2004. He first played for the Grizzlies for two years and then moved to the Bobcats.

His performance declined during the contract year, resulting in poor market conditions, so he chose to sign a one-year offer contract with the Bobcats.

Although the Bobcats did not make the playoffs last season, he was the leading scorer with an average of 20.7 points per game.

His combination of inside and outside with Gerald Wallace once gave the Bobcats hope of revival.

But in the end, Gordon became an unrestricted free agent and pursued his championship dream.

Another potential message from the Pistons' signing is that they are likely to let Anthony gain weight and play power forward next season.

And, that's not all.

While the free market was going on, there was a wave of big trades involving four teams in the league.

And this involves several heavyweight insiders in the league in the past.

The four parties to the transaction are the Nuggets, Mavericks, Suns and Knicks.

The Nuggets sent Camby and Martin, a future first-round pick, and received Ben Wallace and Tim;

The Mavericks sent away big money and additions to get O'Neal;

The Suns sent O'Neal and a second-rounder to get Camby and the trade exception;

The Knicks sent out a trade exception to get Martin, a first-round pick from the Nuggets and a second-round pick from the Suns!

In this deal, all parties get what they want.

The first is Ben and O'Neal. Their performance in their respective teams last season did not meet the team's expectations.

This is a typical "moving the dead tree and moving the living person" attempt.

Moreover, both of their big contracts only have one year left, so the risk factor brought by this operation is relatively small.

Let’s talk about the team that got these two people.

The Mavericks have everything, but they just don't make sense.

They obviously expected O'Neal to be that.

Although O'Neal is already 37 years old and at the end of his career, the so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse, after all, he is a big shark.

Don't go further. Even two years ago, the combination of Nowitzki and O'Neal would have made the league tremble.

After this transaction, they also successfully renewed Kidd with a three-year, 25 million contract.

This will allow them to remain competitive in the league's first tier.

Then there's the Nuggets.

The Nuggets' two inside men, Martin and Camby, feel like their ceilings are too low.

Especially Martin, whose contract is almost as big as Ben's, but his performance is worse than Ben's.

The key is that this contract also puts a lot of salary pressure on the team.

By sending both of them out at once, the Nuggets' operation was pretty good.

And with the salary pressure released, the next thing they have to do is to strengthen the power forward position.

Now among the fish in the free market, Marion has become the most popular.

Both the Nuggets and Heat are expected to pursue him fiercely.

Let’s talk about the remaining Suns and Knicks.

O'Neal has proven to be unsuitable. At this time, changing someone is the best attempt.

Camby can be said to be the most suitable candidate because he played defensive counterattack in the Nuggets.

This fits perfectly with the Suns' style of play.

Moreover, his contract actually only has one year left, so the risk is not great.

Turning to the Knicks, although Martin still has two years left on his big contract, the team is rebuilding around Harden and Beasley.

Rebuilding will definitely take time. Get some big contracts to support the salary space to pass the poverty line, and get some draft picks along the way.

Compared with the management's suffocating operations in the past few years, this four-party transaction can be shortlisted for the "team's best transaction operation in the past decade" candidate list.

When the free market is about to end, the Wizards, Pistons, and Celtics in the Eastern Conference, and the Clippers, Mavericks, and Suns in the Western Conference have all received reinforcements to varying degrees.

Next season will still be a season full of powerful players.

It was at this time that Sun Hao returned to Auckland after his short vacation.
