The Rest, Only Noise

It's not McHale's fault for playing it safe, like Ainge did last year.

Louie suggested that he take O'Neal in the middle of the first round, but Angie didn't have the guts, because this decision would put him under enormous pressure from public opinion.

So he let go of O'Neal and selected an immediate player who could not change the status quo of the team at all.

Angie didn’t dare to bet on high school students in the middle of the first round—of course, this has something to do with the draft year of 1996—McHale naturally didn’t dare to bet on high school students with the second pick that the team earned after a year of hard work. up.

Louis can understand, but it doesn't mean he can accept the other party's behavior.

So when McHale called and wanted to trade, Louie directly expressed his dissatisfaction.

I see that it is not easy for you to be a fledgling, so I kindly recommend it to you, and you just repay me like this?

Seeing Louis reprimanding McHale, Jerry West and others felt something was wrong.

They didn't know that Louie, McHale and other old Knicks had secretly connected with each other, but they could feel that something was going on in this phone call.

Louie reprimanded McHale for a few more words before hanging up the phone indignantly.

"Sir, who made you angry?" Little Bass asked.

Louis said sarcastically: "A **** who has the cheek to ask me to recommend someone for him, but doesn't believe me when the situation comes to an end."

Then, the others stopped asking.

Obviously this happened just now, so who is the person who became a shrinking turtle between the Timberwolves and the Rockets?

The answer doesn't matter, the draft goes to the next pick.

The owner of the fourth pick is the annual poor champion Toronto Raptors.

This draft year is very embarrassing for the Raptors.

Because this year is considered a big year for insiders, this "big" does not mean that there are many highly talented insiders, but that among the players who are doing well, most of them are insiders.

Among the ten most popular players, there are seven insiders.

Needless to say, if you get the No. 1 lottery, choose Duncan with your eyes closed, but if you don't get the No. 1 lottery, it's almost meaningless.

Even if it gets the second pick, it is difficult for the Raptors to do the draft.

Van Horn is good, but they have P-J Brown, Toni Kukoc, Marcus Camby on the team, they have to attack and have offense, and they have to defend and defend.

The Raptors had no choice but to select the only point guard among the top ten favorites—Chauncey Billups of the University of Colorado.

This result is not surprising.

Watching Billups take the stage, Louis was very kind.

This is the first late-blooming NBA star he knew in his previous life. He was like a copy of Marvin Williams in the first few years of his career. Like a human being, not only did he have a key performance in the 2004 Finals, but he also assisted Carmelo Anthony in the Nuggets at the end of his career to play the best season of his career.

I hope he can endure loneliness in Toronto, and he will not be traded by the Celtics who "we made a decision to win now" like in his previous life after playing more than 50 games in his rookie season, thus affecting his own development Bar.

The team holding the fifth overall pick is the Utah Jazz.

They drafted Kevin Johnson-style Antonio Daniels (;DanielsPG) among the mediocrity left in the lottery.

Louis had the impression that he seemed to have seen this person in a Spurs game.

However, even if this person is not well-known, it is certain that he has not fulfilled his talent at all.

Such a guard with excellent athletic ability, who can only go straight when dribbling, and has a single offensive skill, has fallen from ancient times to the present.

At this time, Louis was already very interested in the draft, he just wanted to know which team would select Wang Zhizhi and Qi Chengyan.

There is also Lin Junwu who signed up for the draft in advance. He is called the Chinese version of Kevin Johnson. Unfortunately, the draft market is between the end of the second round and the loss.

The guard line in the United States is too curvy, but his selling point is his physical fitness. Unfortunately, with his height, his physical fitness can be regarded as the ceiling among yellow people, but he can only be regarded as excellent but not outstanding among black guards walking everywhere. level.

In this case, to be selected, first of all, you have to leave a good impression on the teams in the trial training, and secondly, because of the Chinese enthusiasm caused by the NBA and the fact that there are many inside players in this draft, there are many options for the No. 1 position. many.

After that, the Sonics selected Tim Thomas, who can do nothing.

Then, until the result of the eighth pick in the first round came out, TNT's Ernie Johnson mentioned a sudden deal: "The Miami Heat sent Randy Brown and Jaylen Rose to Chicago for Deutsche Love Schrempf, Greg Graham (SG) and the ninth pick in the first round."

"Miami is really in a hurry, is Jaylen Rose sent away?"

Louie's teaching assistants complained.

Louis didn't expect that Shafier would touch Rose directly.

Because Rose is considered the backbone of the Heat, young, with a long contract, and no moths, he is suitable for staying and rebuilding.

Although the Bulls have Schramff as a big name, the current German ghost has fallen into a bad shape. Obviously, the Heat value the No. 9 pick.

Later, David Stern came onto the stage: "In the 1997 NBA draft, the Chicago Bulls (1) chose Wang Zhizhi, from the University of Connecticut."

When Stern pronounced the name "Wang Zhizhi", Louis didn't react.

Because Americans can't pronounce "ZHI", Stern actually said "Wang Jiji".

Wang Zhizhi has lived in the United States for five or six years, so he naturally knew what was going on, so he didn't react as slowly as Louis did. Instead, he stood up with joy, hugged his parents who came to the scene to support him, and then walked onto the stage in high spirits .

That's what Louie wanted to see.

Even more important than hearing Stern say that the Lakers drafted Duncan.

Next, except for the Chinese players, there are basically no people or things worthy of Louis' attention.

Here's where a few notable players have gone.

The Celtics selected Danny Fortson (Danny Fortson PF), a pudgy power forward with two meters of bare feet. He is a genius in terms of rebounding, but apart from rebounding, other basketball skills are not qualified for NBA players.

Derek Anderson (Derek Anderson SF), a flamboyant, explosive wing hitter, was selected by the Magic.

Kevin Yao backed me up and Cato went to the Bucks.

Hairstyler Scott Pollard (;;C) went to the Hornets.

Bench bandit Bobby Jackson was drafted by the Pistons.

Louie's privateer, Stephen Jackson, was recommended to Miami. There are several main reasons. This person is a thorn head. Although Louis has the ability to pull out thorns, he has no hobby of pulling out thorns; this person does not have the ability to play in the NBA at this stage; soil.

For the Heat, Louie has always been recommended, and Shafier must choose.

They sent veteran Jeff Malone to the Clippers in exchange for a second-round pick and selected Jackson.

In the end, the Lakers used their second round plus cash to trade up, improved six picks, and selected 196 cm point guard Alvin Williams (AlvinWilliamsPG).

Qi Chengyan, another Chinese player Louis paid attention to, was selected by the Indiana Pacers with the 21st pick in the first round.

Being selected by a good team is definitely a good thing for a rookie.

The Pacers are a team that is suitable for Cheng Yan, his style is completely suitable, as long as he works hard enough, he should be able to become a good puzzle.

It is a pity that Lin Junwu did not wait for the team that awakened him until the end.

He lost.

Along with him, there are more than a dozen players from the Road Academy and the NBA China Academy.

Now they need to clean up ~www.novelmt.com~ and plan for their own future.

Louis walked out of the draft war room, picked up a rare mobile phone nowadays, and called Wang Zhizhi and the others.

Those who are selected should bless and give a few words of advice.

For those who lost the election, please comfort them, there is still a long way to go.

The draft is just like life, there will always be teams that are entrusted to others, and there will always be players whose dreams are shattered, but in the same way, there are also teams that have their dreams come true, and some players' dreams come true.

After being happy and sad, when I wake up tomorrow, life has to go on.

⑴After a sudden trade during the draft, when it is said that a certain team selects a certain team, does it mean the original holding team of the draft pick or the post-trade holding team? I think according to the description in the book, the transaction is too urgent, and the procedure should not be completed, so theoretically the draft pick still belongs to the Bulls, and the final announcement should be Wang Zhizhi’s draft pick, so Stern should be talking about the Bulls myself They were all stunned.
