From Today it is the King of the Basketball

794969 superstar value ...

The 10,000 superstar rewards for one defense at a time are regular rewards. Unexpectedly, they received the 50,000 superstar rewards and the best defensive player. After eliminating the Bulls, Liu Mang was surrounded by reporters and asked questions for a long time.

Looking at the nearly 800,000 superstar value, Liu Mang felt that he might have the opportunity to take himself one step further before the Olympics.

Even a small improvement is quite difficult for him now, and any opportunity must be seized.

On the night of the Hawks 'elimination of the Bulls, the Magic and the Raptors' Tianwangshan battle, the Magic won the Raptors away and scored a big score of 3-2, but because Liu Mang got the best defensive player Things, Carter's second playoff 50 in his career, scored 53 points and refreshed his personal playoff scores, new masters, old owners, this matter failed to make headlines ...

On May 16, the second day the Hawks advanced to the finals, the league did not arrange games on this day, the Lakers and Jazz fifth series, Magic and Raptors sixth series will start on the 17th .

Today the league is planning a lottery for the draft!

From the trailblazers who failed to make the playoffs by 50 wins to the penultimate 14th in the league, to the Timberwolves last in the record, the management of a total of 14 teams sent people to participate in the lottery.

OJ Mayo and Michael Beasley, the two super geniuses, finished the freshman year, and this draft lottery also attracted much attention ...

"Number 10? It's not bad. I didn't expect the Pacers to get the first pick. I don't know who Bird will choose." Price felt very interesting.

Seeing that the Pistons did not draw the top three picks, Price was relieved. The Pistons had the Hawks in the first round this year, but with the top five picks, the Pistons ranked tenth in the league. It is impossible for the fourth and fifth picks. Only the first three picks are protected. Obviously the Pistons did not have that good luck and did not reach the top three picks.

However, the Timberwolves and Heat, the two teams with the worst records, failed to win the No. 1 pick. The penultimate Pacers won the No. 1 pick.

The Heat got the No. 2 spot, the Grizzlies got the rookie, the penultimate Timberwolves only got the No. 4 pick, the Celtics got the No. 5 pick, the Supersonics got the No. 6 pick, and the Knicks got the No. 7 pick. , The Clippers got the 8th pick, the Knicks got the 9th pick, the Kings got the 10th pick, the Pistons got the 11th pick, the Wizards got the 12th pick, the Warriors got the 13th pick, the Blazers 14 Number sign.

Due to the possible first round pick of the Pistons, Liu Mang and the management watched the lottery live in the arena. Fortunately, the Pistons did not get the top three picks, and the Hawks did not expect the Pacers to be so lucky. it is good.

"If they chose Mayo and Beasley ..." Liu Mang also felt very interesting.

However, Yi Jianlian did not participate in the election, which made Liu Mang, who won the 10th pick, feel a bit sad ...

At this time the phone in Price's office rang.

After reading the telegram, it was really Larry Bird calling.

After a few greetings, Byrd couldn't breathe and asked, "Is it really certain that Westbrook is the best rookie of this year?"

No way, the Pacers won the top pick. Larry Bird is hesitant now. Beasley's freshman performance swept the entire NCAA, but there are personality problems. Mayo is the NCAA's superb talent this season after Beasley.

But the goal that Price gave was Westbrook, the defensive point guard who was predicted to be the ninth pick.

The Westbrook defense of the NBA is not bad, but it is not how good, but Westbrook's defense in the NCAA was one of the best in the United States at the time.

Liu Mang felt that the main purpose of the Thunder, who was also called the Supersonics when choosing Westbrook, was to want to choose a Payton type outside line for Durant. Westbrook had a low post during college and was also defensive. Darren Collison and Love are on the bench, and there is Juholodi on the bench. Westbrook University can only show defense and passing.

Of course, it wasn't as tough as Payton's college defense. At that time, it was basically regarded as the poor version of Payton.

It is estimated that even the Thunder who originally selected Westbrook in time and space can't think of it. In this college, the defensive team of the Brown Bears will be the head of the team. In the future, they can become an MVP. same.

Who knows Westbrook has become the scoring and assisting king and triple-double king in the NBA ... and is the fifth single-season double-back guard in NBA history.

Hearing Bird's doubts, Price picked up the hands-free phone, held Mai, and asked Liu Mang his eyes.

Liu Mang said softly, "Derrick Rose."

Price already had a good understanding with Liu Mang, and he organized the language and said, "I didn't expect you to be so lucky. In fact, besides Westbrook, there is another choice."

"Who? Mayo or Beasley?" Sure enough Bird thought it was one of the two.

After all, these two people have been famous for many years. Although the university record is not good, but the strength and talent they show are the best.

"No, no, it's Derrick Rose."

"Rose?" Larry Bird looked at the draft prediction. Westbrook was ninth. This choice was too nonsense. His teammate Kevin Love predicted that the picks were higher than him. Ross was a bit better and predicted sixth ...

But he is the No. 1 pick!

"……I understand……"

Byrd hung up the phone and was anxious now.

If the Hawks have n’t had such an exaggerated draft success experience in recent years, Larry Bird will not sell out O’Neal to the Hawks in exchange for a draft recommendation.

But Bird did not expect that he actually won the top pick!

At this time, Bird's own rational choice of Beasley or Mayo was completely different from the two suggested by the Hawks.

The freshman Mayo and Beasley have the ability to average 15 points per game in the NBA. That is, if they directly graduate from high school, the rookie season will have the ability to score first-class scorers. It is difficult for Sbrook to see that they have such potential.

Normally, when you get the top pick, you can invite the most popular players and choose the one with the best combination of trial performance and expected talent.

However, the Hawks did not seem to start from this aspect. Granger, Rondo, Boozer and others selected by the Hawks in the draft were very general.

The trust in the Hawks draft vision and the sound choices that should be made out of reason, there are huge differences between these two options ...

Larry Bird began to be melancholy: "Too many choices is also a problem. I knew I wouldn't trade with the Hawks if I could get the first pick ..."

"Ace, do you really think Ross and Westbrook are the two best players in this year's draft?" Price was also a little puzzled.

There is a deceptive feeling.

"Westbrook may be the best. I watched his final performance. It was so good, even better than expected. His rebounds and passing are sure to surprise people. The company has discovered that there are many great things in the future. The point guard may be the point guard for many years. "Liu Mang responded, saying that the point guard he knows will sweep the draft conference.

This is not news or something to hide. Now the best high school students have been point guards for several years in a row.

In the first season of the 2008 rookie entering the NBA, Mayo and Ross performed best. They averaged 18 points per game and ranked first in the rookie. They won the MVP first, but the last one to laugh was Westbrook, three straight. Three double-doubles per game, although the shooting rate and efficiency are unbelievably low ...

And Rose didn't meet Thibodeau, maybe he wouldn't be inspired as early as possible, but he might be a little healthier ... but it wouldn't be better to go there, his change of direction breaks too tormenting his knee.

But there is no doubt that these two are the most successful future superstars in the 2008 rookie.

Hearing that Liu Mang said the point guard era is coming, Price asked curiously: "Ais, how are these two compared with you?"

This question ~ www.readwn.com ~ Liu Mang's eyes flickered and he said with a snap: "Boss, if you ask like this, I'm worried that these two kids will be broken next season, and I will definitely ask you Tell the media about this problem. "

"OH, NO! Ace, you want to play with rookie and don't involve me ..."

In addition to the Pistons 'No. 10 pick, the Hawks also have the Bobcats' No. 17 pick and the Magic's No. 25 pick.

With three picks, Liu Mang feels enough to operate on his own.

As for the first few point guards ... Liu Mang has no interest at all.

Choose a combo guard to grab your job? Unless the head hits the rim of Los Angeles.

Inside, it's still inside!

The strength of the outside has exploded. All you have to do is to guard against the fact that several veteran insiders may leave the team, maybe some people will age, and transactions.

After the draft draw, the playoffs continued.

On the side of the Magic, Milicic ’s rare hard steel still failed to meet the overall strength of the Magic. On the side of the Magic, except for Nielsen, the other four were Carter, Turkoglu, and Rashi. Mu, Howard ... Except center Howard is not as good as Milicic, and in the period of Howard's physical fitness is rising, the role on the field is not much worse than Milicic, and the other three positions have beaten the Raptors.

And the Magic's worst point guard position, the Raptors have no advantage, TJ Ford is nothing but fast.

The Magic had two straight games. After being tied 2-2, they didn't give the Raptors any chance. They defeated the Raptors 4-2. After 13 years, they advanced to the East again!

Compared to Milicic's playoff matchup, Liu Mang certainly wants to play against Rahim!

Waiting for this day, it has been waiting for four years!

However, the Eastern Conference finals came out. On the west side ... The Lakers series is like a foot-wrap ...
