The Rest, Only Noise

Chapter 463: Championship window

Latest URL:

The Sacramento Kings, with the third overall pick, took Amon Gilliam (pf/c) without any hesitation.

This decision is very stable, but it is not stable enough.

Gilliam is reminiscent of Weyman Tisdale in 1985, and he was stumped in college, but not in the pros.

He's not fast enough as a power forward, and he's not tall enough or strong enough as a center.

He can consistently average double-digit points starting at 1 in the regular season, but you can't expect much more from him.

Just think, you have a bad year, just to get a qualified starter? You must want a star

Gilliam is one of those players who can't be good, but can't be good either.

Now, it's just one pick away from Pippen falling to the Bulls.

Will the Suns, with the fourth overall pick in the first round, disappoint?

Louie believes that the choice of the sun will make Krause's basket of water come to nothing.

He had no evidence, no sources, and he had a hunch.

A hunch that something amazing is about to happen.

"The 1987 NBA Draft," Stern was always trying to sell things, and Louie just wanted to jump into the TV every now and then and strangle him on the spot.

This thought only lasted for a while, so Mr. President's life was safe.

"In the nba draft, Phoenix selected ... Scottie Pippen with the fourth pick in the first round! From the University of Central Arkansas."

"The most surprising choice in this draft!"

"Scottie has become a star in the past month." Musberg introduced him to fans. "He was just a second-level star player, and then the "New York Times" article made him popular, he His talent was also recognized by littlelu. After that, he was only a second- and third-round prospect and was promoted to the fourth overall pick in the NBA's first round."

"It's been a great turnaround and his life has been completely different!"

Before Pippen put on the Suns hat, the trade news came from the front.

The Lakers, who turned over as the protagonist today, completed the transaction with the Suns.

"According to the latest news, the Phoenix Suns will trade Scottie Pippen's exclusive signing rights to the Los Angeles Lakers. The details of the transaction are still being confirmed!"

Louis closed his eyes, not surprised by this result.

No one is a fool.

Even an idiot like Harry Weltman knows how to avoid disadvantages.

Jerry Krause raised the draft to fifth in order to ensure safety, but unfortunately, the mantis catching cicada oriole is behind.

The logo man is a master who does not see the rabbit but not the eagle.

He is different from Danny Ainge, who is only willing to gamble with certainty. He is decisive when he sees an opportunity, and he never negotiates the price with you. Instead, he puts out all the chips in one go to force you to make a decision.

It's hard to say no to him because he's so aggressive and the chips he's given are heartwarming.

Just said that a few days ago, I was going to take Wilkins + four in the first round and eat the Knicks' garbage contract, just to get Wilson.

All he wants is a future star who just finished his rookie season.

It would be understandable if Duncan, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Olajuwon, and Chamberlain who had just finished their rookie seasons were quoted like this. Wilson's rookie season was good, but nowhere near that level.

West wanted Wilson so much because he saw the plasticity and potential of the latter, and believed in his heart that the trade would not suffer in the end.

He was a crazy gambler and a talented helmsman with a discerning and strategic eye.

Hearing that the Lakers had secured the rights to Pippen, Baylor was dumbfounded.

He didn't expect that just a casual remark that day would let the old man see the mystery.

"I seem to see the picture of Scottie Pippen leading the team to win and win the fmvp when the Lakers and us face off in the finals in the future." Lou sneered, "Good job Elgin, I didn't think I would have this day too. , the enemy is at the Honneng Temple."

Don't look at Baylor's usual arrogance. If something goes wrong, he also wants to remedy it.

"What shall we do?" Baylor asked.

"Are you going to talk nonsense next time?" Louis asked back.

Baylor shook his head vigorously: "It's my father who came to inquire about the news, and I'm going to **** it too!"

Louis nodded with satisfaction: "I believe your grandma will be proud of you."

Zhao Yuanzheng couldn't breathe with laughter.

Baylor then asked, "What's the next step?"

"Watch the play." Louis laughed, "Let's watch the play."

Stud traded all the resources he had at his disposal for the No. 5 pick, only to be knocked out by the Suns at No. 4, only to find out that it was actually the wily Jerry West.

Klaus was furious.

Fortunately, he didn't know that West's reason for intercepting Hu Pippen was because he inquired about the news from the Knicks, otherwise the innocent and honest and honest coach Lu would be blamed again.

Krause overturned everything in his office before giving the Bulls a last-minute pick.

As of now, the Bulls have no choice.

They can only choose the best looking Dennis Hopson (dennishopsonsg/sf) of the remaining players, from Ohio State University, which has produced several legends, but not him.

Hopson's senior season, averaging 29 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists per game became the school's all-time scoring leader.

He's a sharp shooter, a strong, strong passer who seems to have a very high ceiling, but scouts have doubts about his suitability for the NBA.

At this point the Bulls have no choice.

They got Hopson.

The Nets immediately used the sixth overall pick from the Bulls and selected Olden Polynicec (pf), who should have been exchanged by the Bulls for Pippen's signing rights. Influence, in Louis's previous life is comparable to the Bucks taking Dirk Nowitzki and the Mavericks to exchange Robert Traylor.

"It's a pity that the person I want is still sitting there." Louis smiled smugly.

He stood up, tossed a few coins and asked, "Let's have a drink to celebrate, what do you want?"

Baylor asked for beer, Zhao Yuanzheng only wanted mineral water, and Louis was naturally Coke.

Louis grabbed Coke in his right hand and said, "Congratulations to this draft with a little flaw."

"Where's the flaw?" Baylor seemed to have forgotten about him being a ghost.

"You definitely don't want me to remind you again." Louis laughed.

Baylor nodded quickly: "Yes, there is a flaw!"

At this time, the call of Rudy Tomjanovich, who was in the draft line, came back.

The person who answered the phone was Zhao Yuanzheng.

"Rudy asked if it was going as planned?"

"certainly!"

"Coach Lu said it will proceed as planned." Zhao Yuanzheng replied.

Stern was back on the scene again and took the Knicks' selection envelope.

"The 1987 NBA Draft...the New York Knicks (Stern always pronounces the full name of the New York Knicks) picked...Reggie Miller! From."

Louis held the cup with Coke and everyone, "It's been hard work for everyone these days. Although the process is very difficult, we finally completed all the strategic goals and laid a good foundation for the future of the team!"

In this draft, the Knicks are not the protagonists, but from beginning to end, the rhythm is under the control of Louis.

As time goes by, the image of Louie will be mythical when telling people this year's story after the executives who have witnessed this draft conference retire.

How a person standing behind the scenes uses his contacts, influence, and resources to influence almost every choice of the top seven picks.

In the biggest trade storm of the offseason, he acted as an unknown behind-the-scenes driving force.

It's worth mentioning where the rest of this draft's elite players are going.

The Lakers have the eighth pick in the first round and are still on the draft list. There are at least two stars-Kevin Johnson and Horace Grant. In the end, they chose the stocky inside swingman Derek with the eighth pick. · McKay (derrickmckeypf/c).

Although they successfully drafted Kevin Johnson with the ninth overall pick, Johnson's signing rights eventually became part of a trade with the Suns for the fourth overall pick.

The Pacers selected Horace Grant as their 10th overall pick with almost no options.

The Washington Bullets picked Bug Boggs;

The Nets selected New York talent Mark Jackson with the 13th overall pick from the Bulls;

Reggie Lewis still goes to Celtics;

The Knicks also selected two players in this draft.

One is Zhao Yuanzheng's recommendation~www.novelmt.com~ They selected Edward State University's Brad Lohaus (bradlohauspf/c) with the Celtics' second-round pick in the second round.

Zhao Yuanzheng used only one reason to make Louis decide to choose him.

"He's seven feet tall, but has the heart of a shooting guard who loves shooting from positions that college coaches can't stand..."

"It's him, choose me right away!"

Gilmour is gone, and the Knicks need to find a substitute. Louie intends to let Song Tao take the position, but it is always good to have multiple people competing.

As for the other option, the Knicks used their second-round pick and selected future NBA coach Billy Donovan (billydonovanpg).

At this point, the 1987 draft has come to an end. Unlike the past two drafts, the Knicks’ team names frequently appeared different. This year, the Knicks only shot three times, and it seems that only Miller will become the Knicks’ favorite in the new season. The other two are regular players.

Sports reporters across the country are discussing the aftermath of Jerry West's repeated exchanges, and no one knows what role Louie played behind it.

After the draft, Louie looked at their roster, and while they lost Gilmour, Curry and Corbin, they got Cooper and Miller.

As a result, the Knicks' roster for the new season will be Ewing, Oakley, Stockton, Dale Ellis, Alex Stevens, Kevin McHale, Benjamin Wilson, John. Selly, Rodman, Hornacek, Song Tao, Michael Cooper, Reggie Miller, Brad Rohos...and maybe a Billy Donovan.

What is certain is that the championship window for the New York Knicks has opened, and this time, Louie must win it all.
