I am so Accurate

Before the draft started, something big or small happened in the league.

This matter has something to do with the Warriors and Curry.

Most of the Warriors' players performed well in last year's Finals, but only one player performed averagely.

That's right, Curry.

Curry's 9 points and 6 assists in the first game are a microcosm.

In the finals where the intensity of the confrontation is extremely high, Curry's room for performance is very limited.

He is more of a spacing presence on the court.

This is also a problem that Sun Hao mentioned a long time ago. Because the playing styles are too similar, it is difficult for Curry to have room to play next to Sun Hao.

Not to mention that Curry can only be used as the third or even fourth option on the offensive end.

Coupled with the fact that his defense is average, his actual role in the finals may not be as good as that of Raja Bell who just joined the team.

It is because of this that at the end of the season, when the fans were bored, they discussed the feasibility of the Knicks' lineup adjustment and also discussed how the Warriors could be better.

Because in addition to Sun Hao this summer, another problem the Warriors are facing is whether to renew Oden's contract and at what price.

Don't think this is a trivial matter. You must know that just like the Knicks, the maximum number of people a team can accommodate is 3 because the league has a super luxury tax.

The Warriors now have two max-salary players in Sun Hao and Durant, and they will be there for a long time.

So whether the only remaining maximum salary slot is for Oden, Curry, or Ibaka, this is a question that the Warriors must consider.

Some people may ask, why must the salary be maxed out?

This is not something the Warriors can decide on their own. For unrestricted free agents, other teams can make free offers. If you don't match the player, they will be poached.

So the Warriors will also have a headache this summer.

Therefore, the fans' suggestion to the Warriors at this time is that if Oden's price is relatively cheap, such as around 10 million, then he can definitely sign him.

If you can't keep him, let him go, and then follow the same idea as the Knicks, using Curry to exchange for a cost-effective center or a rookie who performs well, and receive the rookie bonus.

Because the Warriors mainly play five small lineups, the role of the center is actually not that big.

In this case, if Oden leaves and Curry leaves, the third highest-paid candidate will automatically be given to Ibaka.

This is also the most reasonable allocation, because Sun Hao and Durant are the cornerstones, and Ibaka is the most critical point of the five small deposits.

As for everyone else, they are all replaceable.

This is what it means to have an iron camp and flowing soldiers.

Originally, this was just the idea of ​​a small group of fans, but unexpectedly, the trouble-loving FOX Sports forwarded the news, and then the boring TNT Big Three also talked about it.

After talking about it, they found that it was actually quite reasonable.

They even suggested that the Warriors use the 11th pick in their hands to select Klay Thompson from Washington State University.

So this matter suddenly caused a fuss.

As the protagonist of this matter, Curry's current situation seems rather embarrassing.

And as a rookie who had just finished his sophomore year, he had no right to speak at this time.

This summer's free market originally had nothing to do with him, but now it has become closely related to him.

After Sun Hao won the championship, he went to Los Angeles for a vacation with Scarlett and Little Beijing.

That sounds a little strange, considering they've lived in Los Angeles for so long.

But life is like this, no station will stop forever.

Sun Hao saw the news while enjoying the cool air on the beach.

He felt a little complicated after seeing it.

Because he is his eldest nephew, he originally thought that Curry would not be able to play because of his presence.

Now this matter broke out earlier than he expected.

This really posed a problem for him.

However, this matter involves a relatively wide area, so he can only wait and see first.

Time flies and it’s time for the draft.

Sun Hao is still in Los Angeles. He did not go to the draft and did not give Mullin any advice.

No matter who he chooses now, it is the icing on the cake, and the icing on the cake is no longer suitable for him.

But precisely because he didn't go, there was a lot of uncertainty. He also watched the live broadcast of this year's draft on TV.

The draft picks were determined as early as late April.

In 2003, the Cavaliers "unfortunately" lost to the Nuggets in the battle for the No. 1 pick.

This year the god of luck finally favored them, and they won the first No. 1 pick in the history of the team.

The other rankings are:

Second pick: Nuggets

Third pick: Jazz

No. 4 pick: Houston

Fifth pick: Nets

No. 6: Timberwolves

No. 7: Hornets

No. 8 pick: Lakers

No. 9 pick: Bucks

No. 10: King

Pick 11: Warriors (Raptors pick)

…

Pick 27: Bulls

Pick 28: Grizzlies

Pick 29: Knicks

No. 30: Warriors

…

Before the draft started, the camera in the live broadcast had been showing Irving.

In this "little year of the draft", Irving is the definite No. 1 pick.

So like Wall last year, basically waiting for the results to be announced.

The live broadcast was narrated by the Big Three of TNT.

Since the No. 1 pick was basically certain, they talked about many other things.

There is the summer operational relationship between the Knicks and Warriors that they discussed before.

Even, although it was not explicitly raised, they still involved sensitive labor negotiation issues.

The rapid development of the NBA, especially the fact that last year's finals attracted more attention than the NFL, has led to a major conflict between labor and management over the distribution of interests in the new labor agreement.

Over the past summer, both sides have tried to negotiate, but have been unable to reach a new agreement because their differences were too great.

If this momentum continues, the NBA is likely to usher in its first lockout since 1999.

The impact of the lockout on the NBA is obvious. Jordan's first retirement also has a lot to do with the last lockout.

So even though this topic is very sensitive, it is impossible to completely avoid it.

Of course, because they were too sensitive, the Big Three did not dare to say more.

When they were almost done talking, the draft finally started.

The Cavaliers have five minutes to decide on their final selection, although there won't be any major surprises with the selection.

In fact, as the only city in the league that has failed to win a championship in the four major sports leagues, Cleveland has a special position in the league.

In 2003, fans almost thought that James would go to Cleveland and achieve zero breakthrough for Cleveland.

But the two sides missed it in the end. As James rose in the league, it became a regret for many Cleveland fans.

But now, they finally have a new chance.

Kyrie Irving, the man from Duke whose template says Chris Paul and Allen Iverson, is their "answer"!

Five minutes later, Stern reappeared on the live broadcast to announce the Cavaliers' final selection.

The Cavaliers chose Irving without any suspense.

After Irving was selected, the Cavaliers fans in attendance let out a burst of excited cheers.

They believe that Irving will lead the city of Cleveland out of the quagmire and towards glory!

There is no suspense about the Cavaliers' selection, but the suspense for the Nuggets with the second pick is even greater.

Speaking of which, the Nuggets' "luck" is quite good. In the first season after James left, they got the second pick.

After five minutes of waiting, Sun Hao also entered himself into the draft.

Based on his feeling, the Nuggets will probably choose Derrick Williams.

Because Williams' draft template is James!

Now that James is gone, a new "James" will naturally come!

Williams' performance in college was quite strong. In his sophomore season, he averaged 19.5 points and 8.3 rebounds per game and led the team to the Elite Eight.

What's more important is that in every game Crazy San plays, he plays key goals and has great heart ability.

Facts have proved that Sun Hao's guess was also correct.

Five minutes later, Stern announced the Nuggets' selection: Derrick Williams.

In history, Williams failed to live up to his worth, and together with Beasley, he became a typical representative of "no three, no four".

However, one thing that cannot be ignored is that he went to Minnesota, and the Timberwolves are known as the "rookie graveyard."

I don’t know how many rookies in history have been buried in that place.

It's unlikely that Denver will usher in the next James, but the next All-Star is not entirely impossible.

After the Nuggets, the Jazz used the third pick to pick up the Turkish Kanter, which is the same as in history.

With the fourth pick, Houston selected Lithuania MVP, 2.13-meter center Valanciunas.

Jeremy Lin performed well in Houston last season and became one of the counterattack representatives.

The Houstonians, who had been silent for who knows how many seasons, began to feel restless again.

As a result of their restlessness, they started the journey of selecting inside players again.

The Nets, who picked the fifth overall pick, also selected an interior defender. They chose Durant's alumnus, interior defensive monster Tristan Thompson.

With the sixth pick, the Timberwolves selected Jan Vesely from the Czech Republic, the city of "Czech Yi Jianlian".

Vesely's playing style is very similar to that of Yi Jianlian, but what is really memorable about his draft is the kiss he shared with his beautiful girlfriend before taking the stage.

At that moment, others were envious.

With the seventh pick, the Hornets selected "Uncle Mu's second generation" Bismack Biyombo.

With the eighth pick, the Lakers selected Brandon Knight!

This choice by the Lakers is worthy of attention.

Since Sun Hao left the team, the Lakers have been in trouble.

After the departure of Phil Jackson, the power vortex of Jeanie Buss and Jim Buss, and the deteriorating health of the old Buss, the Lakers looked like a complete hero in their twilight years.

The glory of the past still hangs in the arena, but it seems to have become an irreversible memory.

So this time, they also chose a combo guard.

Knight is by no means unknown in the NCAA. He contributed two buzzer beaters in March Madness, and his big heart ability is even better than that of Derrick Williams.

And what’s even more impressive than his big heart is his desire to win.

The most direct manifestation is that during a game, after being shaken away, most players will choose to give up defense when they know that there is no hope of defense.

But Knight is one of the rare players who will rush forward regardless of his own safety even if he knows he can't guard him.

His wingspan is particularly good, which makes his recklessness work wonders in many cases.

Sun Hao was also a little pleased when he saw the Lakers' choice.

Knight's talent is actually very good. Historically, he averaged 17+ points per game in the third and fourth years of his career.

But the most puzzling thing is that the Bucks who trained him traded him away when he was at his best...

Although Knight's scoring average has soared to nearly 20 points per game with the Suns, he has one foot in the ranks of top guards.

But injuries directly ruined this hard-working player.

Fans who knew Knight felt unspeakable regret.

The guard who is most remembered by fans for being dunked by Jordan was really just like what he showed in college, he worked very, very hard.

As the fans said later, it is miserable to be used as a background by being dunked, but in that case, the only defender who dared to rush to defend was probably Brandon Knight!

Now with the Lakers, who are waiting for something to happen, I believe Knight will have a very good career journey.

After the Lakers are the Bucks.

"With the ninth pick in the first round of the 2011 NBA Draft, the Milwaukee Bucks selected... Klay Thompson, a 1.98-meter shooting guard from Washington State University."

Sun Hao was stunned when he heard the result.

When the Raptors' pick was finally determined to be the 11th pick, he, a time traveler, would naturally think about whether the Warriors would choose Klay Thompson.

It's hard for him not to think about this pick.

So although he didn't participate, his curiosity was constantly strengthened as the draft progressed.

It's just a little surprising that Thompson was intercepted!

Although this does make sense.

Because with the advent of the small ball era and the Death Five becoming popular, the popularity of 3D players like Thompson will definitely increase.

Although the difference between nine and eleven is not big, they are still considered top ten picks.

After the Bucks are the Kings.

The Kings' selection was the same as in history. They used the No. 10 pick to select Fredette, the college marksman and the "lonely master" who has created countless NCAA three-point records.

Then, there’s the Warriors’ 11th pick.

Because Thompson has been selected, there is a lot of uncertainty about the Warriors' choice.

Among the remaining players, the most promising one is definitely Kemba Walker.

But the possibility of the Warriors making this choice is slim because the team has no room for Walker.

It’s hard to say who is suitable further down the line. It might be Morris, the older of the Morris brothers.

Because Landry's contract expires this summer, the Warriors may not be able to keep him, so it would be appropriate to choose Morris as a replacement.

Of course, it is also possible that Vucevic will be chosen as Oden's replacement for the same reason.

Or, if you can't draft Thompson, pick Leonard as Thompson's replacement.

Leonard's defense is excellent. Although his offense is relatively rough, he has good dynamic physical talents and can definitely be developed.

Sun Hao thought that if the Warriors selected Leonard, the league might really be coming to an end.

At this moment, Stern came from behind the scenes to the stage for the eleventh time.

The Warriors fans at the scene could not contain their excitement.
