Chapter 260 The 2007 Draft Draws Lots!

While Xu Lang, Darko Milicic, Paul Millsap and others were training at the University of Washington, the lottery ceremony for the 2007 NBA draft officially began.

The NBA draft lottery is drawn by the 14 teams that did not make it to the playoffs that season.

The worse the record, the earlier the draw, and the worse the record, the higher the chance of winning the lottery.

There is no doubt that, as the team with the worst record in the league this season, the Timberwolves are a strong candidate for this year's No. [-] pick.

Secondly, it comes from the Bucks with the second-worst record in the league, and the Sonics with the third-worst record in the league.

To be honest, the Sonics had a chance to surpass the Bucks in terms of poor record.

It can only be blamed that the supersonic's perimeter twin stars were too powerful in the first half of the season!
Of course, the worse the record is, the more likely it is to win the No. 100 lottery [-]%.

For example, last year's lottery was a lottery meeting full of accidents.

According to the results of last year's draft lottery, this year's draft may or may not determine who will win the final No. [-] pick based on the team's record.

Moreover, with many All-Star-level stars entering the trade market this year, even if some teams get high-ranking picks, it does not mean that they will use this high-ranking pick to select a rookie. slow-growing.

So for NBA teams, in this year's draft, it is important to say that he is important, and it is not important to say that he is not important.

However, for the players participating in the draft this year, the lottery in this draft is definitely a very important thing.

"Seattle, Seattle, Seattle!"

In front of the TV, Curry muttered words like praying.

"Minnesota, Milwaukee, Seattle, it seems that Seattle is indeed the best choice."

Xu Lang and a group of players who stayed at the University of Washington to train collectively watched the live broadcast of this year's draft lottery on the big screen in the training venue.

There is no doubt that for Curry and Russell Westbrook, who continued the miracle of Washington's Five Tigers last year and won the championship again, the Sonics' final No. [-] pick is the best choice.

After all, judging from the popularity of Curry and Russell Westbrook in Seattle in the past year, if the SuperSonics can get Curry or Russell Westbrook, there is no doubt that they will Solve the problem of the team's poor home atmosphere last season.

Of course, if the Sonics can win both of them, I believe that the Sonics' home court next season will become one of the hottest home games in the entire NBA.

However, judging from the record of the Sonics this year, the chances of winning the No. [-] lottery do not seem to be very high.

In addition, the management of the Seattle Supersonics has been in a state of confusion this year due to financial problems. The league is likely to consider otherwise some players with good potential entering the Supersonics.

After all, a relatively chaotic team environment and management environment is definitely not a good place for rookies to start.

However, when everyone saw that the Timberwolves, who had the worst record this year, ranked last in the league, and were most likely to win the No. [-] pick, played, they only got the No. [-] pick.

Immediately in everyone's mind, the results of last year's surprising draft lottery appeared.

Kevin Garnett returned to his seat blankly after finishing the lottery.

As a player who has already had a showdown with the Timberwolves and is about to leave, Kevin Garnett doesn't care much about who the Timberwolves can pick this year!
After all, what Kevin Garnett needs now is a champion, and the potential rookies on the excellent page are just potential!
"Kevin, eight teams have requested trades from the Timberwolves.

But I personally feel that there are only three teams among them, which deserve our attention.

One is the Rockets, one is the Lakers, and one is the Celtics. "

"Among these three teams, the Rockets have the lowest trading chips and expressed willingness to trade because they are playing in the Western Conference Finals.

In comparison, the trading chips offered by the Lakers are relatively good, and the Lakers management and Kobe promised that after you go to the Lakers, you will be second only to Kobe Bryant in terms of tactical status and team status. . "

Fletcher, Garnett's agent, observed Kevin Garnett's expression, and kept talking about the various trade applications the Timberwolves have received recently.

When he heard his agent talk about the Rockets, Kevin Garnett was obviously moved.

After all, the main reason why Kevin Garnett will choose to leave the Timberwolves this year is because of the championship.

And this year's Rockets have clearly shown their ability to win the championship.

Even if he can't win the championship this year, Kevin Garnett believes that after he joins the Rockets, the probability of the Rockets winning the championship next year will also increase dramatically.

The only problem now is that when the Rockets' Yao-Mike combination is in full swing, after Kevin Garnett joins the Rockets, it is very likely that he will only be able to become a third player.

From the former wolf king to the third head of the Rockets, even if he won the championship in the end.

I feel that the improvement of Kevin Garnett's historical status will not be great, and it may even decline!
In fact, the Lakers also have this problem. Because of Kobe's reasons, after Kevin Garnett passed, there is no way to be the leader of the team.

Coupled with the performance of the Lakers this season, it is really hard to see that he has the possibility of winning the championship, although Kobe is very strong, although Phil Jackson's coaching ability is very good.

But Garnett's only goal now is the championship.

"What's the situation with the Celtics? How can they go to them when they are playing like this today?"

"Oh, it is said that Danny Ainge will make a big move this offseason.

If you go, it is said that this year the Celtics may put together an F4 lineup like the Lakers once did.

And the Celtics have also made a promise, as long as you go there, you will be the leader of the team, the absolute core player. "

Kevin Garnett frowned after listening to his agent's words.

"Don't worry, let's take a look!"

Kevin Garnett is very cautious about this trade choice, because this is likely to be his last chance to hit the championship as a core player.

After the Timberwolves had the highest rate of winning the No. [-] pick, they only got the No. [-] pick.

The results of the lottery for the Bucks, who played immediately behind him, were even worse. The Bucks only got the fourth pick in the end.

Uh, speaking of it, the Bucks in recent years have been miserable enough.

Since Ray Allen left the Bucks, although the Bucks quickly selected Michael Reid, they completed the reconstruction again.

But just when the Bucks are planning to become a strong team in the playoffs again.

This year, Mike Reed was reimbursed for the season due to injuries!
Then the Bucks left the state of being able to rank in the playoffs in the 05-06 season, and came straight to the bottom of the Eastern Conference.

And now with such a bad record, the Bucks have not been able to get the top three picks.

The owner of the Bucks is so good that he wants to cry but has no tears!

Although there are Curry, Russell Westbrook, Greg Oden, Mike Conley, and Durant in this year's draft, the main five picks in the draft are not deficit.

But, after all, the higher the draft pick, the more initiative!

And after the first two teams with the highest probability of winning the No. [-] pick in the draft failed to do so, Ray Allen, who was waiting to help the third-ranked Seattle SuperSonics draw lots, did not actually think that he would be able to draw. The number one lottery.

But sometimes when luck comes, you can't even hide!
"Let's congratulate the Seattle SuperSonics for being the No. 2007 pick in the [-] draft."

Seeing David Stern calmly announcing that the Supersonics won this year's No. [-] pick, Curry and Russell Westbrook's eyes lit up immediately.

Although with the departure of the outside Gemini, the Sonics will definitely be a big team next season!

Although the current management of the Seattle SuperSonics is relatively chaotic and not very friendly to the growth of young players, it is the No. [-] pick.

"Okay, Phil, the contract can be signed. Since David Stern has fulfilled his obligations as promised, it is best for the Sonics to stay in Seattle."

To be honest, Bill Gates can also see it purely from the perspective of a businessman.

After the current NBA league is advancing faster and faster with globalization, the market value of any NBA team is constantly increasing.

Even for small ball market teams, their overall market value has doubled or tripled in the past ten years.

And Bill Gates believes that as the NBA's globalization strategy becomes more and more perfect in the future, the value of NBA teams will continue to increase.

After all, when the globalization of the NBA is completed, more and more business tycoons will start to see the role of NBA teams in helping their products open up some global markets.

Especially in the Chinese market, with more and more Chinese players entering the NBA, the influence of the NBA in the Chinese market has surpassed that of any other sports league in the world.

As the fifth largest economy in the world that is booming and recovering rapidly in 07, the Chinese market has become the world market that all international companies in the world want to monopolize most!

"The next step is to get Sun Yue into the bag."

Of course, as a businessman with a global outlook, Bill Gates' layout in the NBA is only a small part of his global layout.

After the Supersonics won the No. [-] pick this year, the Sixers, who only drew lots behind them, were also lucky to get the No. [-] pick this year.

It's just that although the 76ers have won the second pick this year and are expected to help the team find an extremely good young player, the team's boss Allen Ferson can't wait.

Like Kevin Garnett, Iverson, who is 32 years old this year, has only one last chance to hit the championship as a core player!
Allen Iverson, Lewis, Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett, just these few players in this year's trade market are enough to attract the attention of all fans and the media.

After the top three draft picks are determined, the selection of the next draft picks is basically based on the record ranking of each team.

Of course, none of this has much to do with the Eagles. After all, this year's Eagles only have one pick with the 18th pick in the second round.

Although, Xu Lang can use the system's detection function to occasionally help the team complete the pick-up of draft players.

However, it is difficult to select particularly good rookies for a relatively late draft pick like the 18th pick in the second round.

Of course, for this year's Eagles, there is no need to select particularly good rookies.

After all, the core players in the team are all young players who are still in their rookie period or have just finished their rookie period.

The Eagles really don't have more energy and playing time to cultivate more potential rookies. Therefore, even if the Eagles select a potential rookie this year, it is just a waste of their talents in the end.

And after watching this year's lottery, Dan Feigen is also busy.

Although Curry, Russell Westbrook and Sun Yue have various reasons, he doesn't need to worry about it now!
Just wait until the right training camp opportunity to get the trio out in front of the media.

However, Dan Fegan signed more than just these three candidates this year.

So, after watching this year's draft lottery, Dan Fagan started flying around the United States with his rookie players.

And Xu Lang also started to join the joint training with the national team after about a week of adjustments!
It's just because the national team lost Yao Ming this time, Xu Lang still needs to re-adapt to the national team's tactical system.

After all, in the absence of Yao Ming, the core tactics of the entire national team are Xu Lang and Yi Jianlian.

When there was Yao Ming, the tactical system of the national team was mainly based on positional offense. On the offensive end, it was only necessary to hand the ball to Yao Ming for singles inside!
But in the absence of Yao Ming in the national team, this young national team will naturally not focus on attacking from the ground in terms of tactical system.

Especially after having Xu Lang, a passing master, and Yi Jianlian, a first-class rushing player in the NBA.

Coach Jonas intends to create a fast-paced lineup in this national team.

However, before allowing Xu Lang to participate in the joint training, Coach Yunus still has a headache to deal with.

"Xu, do you have time? I want to chat with you about this year's national team."

Xu Lang heard that Jonas was going to talk to him about the national team, so he didn't think much about it. He just followed coach Jonas to his temporary office in the University of Washington training gym.

"Xu, it's like this. I want the national team to play a formal full-court game with these players from the University of Washington."

"Damn, I thought it was something, that's all, no problem, I'll talk to Coach Romar later, just find a time to organize it."

"No, Xu, I want you and Yi Jianlian to join the University of Washington's team and give lessons to the national team."

"After all, I want to play this game to let the national players of the national team wake up a little bit. They have been really drifting too much recently."

"Oh, that's it, then there's no need for me and Yi Jianlian to join the University of Washington."

"Even, I think Yi Jianlian can stay in the national team.

As long as I don't play, there is a high probability that this national team will not be able to beat these players from the University of Washington! "

A few minutes later, Xu Lang came out of Coach Jonas's office, and looked at the national team players who were still laughing and playing with a very happy expression, showing a smile of unknown meaning.

To be honest, Xu Lang was really not talking big in front of coach Yunus just now.

Although this national team is under the training of coach Jonas, and several key players have been promoted by Xu Lang's training plan.

Even without Xu Lang and Yao Ming, its overall strength is still at the level of the third-rate teams in the world and the top teams in Asia.

However, as the ncaa championship team, the players of the University of Washington who are currently staying in the training arena are also not bad.

Not to mention Curry and Russell Westbrook, who are likely to be selected in the top five this year.

It is Kevin Love, who just joined the University of Washington this year, and Eric Gordon, after just two months of training, their personal strength has been improved to a certain extent, and they have reached the C level!

You know, apart from a few players who have played in the NBA, the entire national team has only Liu Wei, Wang Zhizhi, and Sun Yue whose strength has been raised to C-level or above.

In addition, several main players of the University of Washington who won the championship this year.

Jerry Gerrard and others also stayed in the training venue.

Xu Lang believes that the University of Washington basketball team led by Curry and Russell Westbrook will not be weaker than the national players in the national team in terms of overall performance.

Even, in Xu Lang's opinion, if the national players of the national team don't take this game seriously.

Except for Yi Jianlian, several other players, including Liu Wei and Wang Zhizhi, may suffer big losses.

Especially for these outside national players, facing Curry and Russell Westbrook, it is very likely that they will be exploded miserably.

In the mood of watching the excitement, Xu Lang approached Coach Romar and told him about Coach Jonas' idea of ​​wanting the national team to play a game with players like the University of Washington.

Coach Romar didn't hesitate, and directly agreed.

After all, playing against the world's top teams like the Chinese national team will greatly promote the vision and overall strength of these players at the University of Washington.
