I am so Accurate

On draft day, Sun Hao and Kupchak went to Manhattan, New York.

Before going to Madison Square Garden, Sun Hao participated in a brand promotion event of Adidas.

Having just defended his title, coupled with the enthusiasm for shoulder pads, Sun Hao is now at a time when his popularity is bursting. Naturally, Adi will not miss such a good opportunity.

Sun Hao was very busy this day by sending signed sneakers and even signed shoulder pads.

However, Sun Hao has a partner in this promotion.

Kevin, yes, it's me Durant.

After a series of considerations, Durant finally joined the Adi camp like Yi Jianlian.

Regarding this, Sun Hao was actually quite surprised.

Because Nike, as a local American brand, is more importantly an official sponsor of the NBA. American players, especially the younger generation, still prefer Nike.

The 03 generations such as James, Wade, and Anthony all chose Nike.

The only explanation is probably because of him?

Sun Hao's surprise is also this. Yi Jianlian can be said to have grown up with him, and he is also an overseas player.

But Durant is different.

What he did to Durant was nothing more than a visit to Oak Hill High School to persuade him, plus a few pairs of sneakers.

"I saw on the Internet two days ago that someone had opened a lot of trumpets to support me and the Lakers. Have you seen it?"

Sun Hao knocked on the side.

"No, I'm not paying attention to those now."

Durant shook his head like a rattle.

Sun Hao couldn't help laughing when he saw this.

Durant likes to use the trumpet, he knew it in his previous life.

It's just that he didn't expect this guy to start using it so early.

And he can basically conclude that Durant joined Adi because of him.

The current state of this guy is his brain fan!

This is different from James and Anthony.

It seems that he will take more care in the future.

After the promotion, they went to Madison Square Garden together.

Durant went to the little green house, and Sun Hao went to the Lakers draft cabin first.

The Lakers failed to get the first place in the regular season last season, and even ranked fourth in the Western Conference, which gave them no home court advantage in the Western Conference Finals and Finals.

But when it comes to the draft, this is an advantage.

Because they have the 25th overall pick this year.

This can be regarded as their top pick in recent years.

At this time, I have to talk about the rookie Sun Hao valued before.

Paul Millsap.

Millsap is a short insider who is not very popular at this time. As a power forward, he is only 2.03 meters tall, and he is not enough to play small forwards.

In his previous draft report, experts considered it difficult to adapt to NBA-level games.

In the major lists, his highest predicted pick is also around the 40th pick in the second round.

Don't blame the experts for being bricks. This type of player really doesn't play much in the NBA.

Not to mention Barkley and Walker, those guys' other talents before the draft are top-notch, but Millsap is not.

Of course, Millsap was not Sun Hao's only choice.

Before trading up the draft, the Lakers still have a chance to pick Rajon Rondo.

Rondo is a typical academy point guard, and he has outstanding defensiveness, and he will go well with Sun Hao.

However, it was Sun Hao from last season.

With ten cents next season, Rondo's style of play will conflict with Sun Hao.

And Rondo doesn't work as a substitute, and the Lakers already have Louis Williams.

Even if they play well in history and don't give the ball or a chance, they will eventually be stunned by the butterfly effect.

So by comparison, Millsap is more suitable for the Lakers.

Inside the Lakers? The power forward position is still lacking.

Kukoc retires at the end of the season? The Lakers position is also vacant.

"Really choose him?"

Kupchak still has some doubts.

On the one hand, short players have a low growth rate. On the other hand, what the Lakers lack most is actually the kind of inside swingman.

O'Neal's degradation on the defensive end is already obvious? He has to be partnered with coolies inside.

Phil Jackson used Mourning more often last season.

But Mourning will be one year older next year, and she doesn't know what will happen to her health.

So in the eyes of Kupchak? Josh Boone, Joel Franley, and Solomon Jones are better choices.

"This is just my suggestion."

Sun Hao's attitude is the same as before when communicating with Jordan.

This kind of thing that involves management's decision-making? Is the management soliciting his opinions? Then he gives his own suggestions.

As for whether to accept it or not, that is the management's own business.

After talking with Kupchak, Sun Hao went to the stands outside.

As mentioned earlier, we should give more care to Duran's characteristics, and attention is also a kind of care.

Inside the small green house now? There were many faces that Sun Hao was familiar with.

Except for Bargnani and Durant? He was the first to pay attention to Aldridge, who was relatively unremarkable.

Said that he is not so noticeable because Aldridge, who played for the University of Texas, averaged only 15 points and 9.2 rebounds in his sophomore year.

However, Aldridge can be ranked third in the major draft prediction lists, his talent is not fully reflected by the data.

The height of 2.11 meters? Excellent low singles skills, soft shooting touch? Solid footwork, good fast attack speed? And excellent wingspan.

In terms of physical talent, Aldridge is already the best player in this class.

And he still works very hard? Talented and hardworking? This kind of player is very popular among NBA teams.

But Sun Hao will pay attention the first time? In addition to his eyes, there is another reason that is related to O'Neill.

Two years ago, in the summer when Sun Hao was traded to the Lakers, Aldridge, who was a top high school student in the United States, was already ready to run.

But when O'Neal was in Dallas, he heard about Aldridge and invited him to dinner through Aldridge's coach.

At that time, O'Neal was in a quarrel with "high school student" Kobe, he finally gave Aldridge a suggestion that he should go to college before playing the NBA.

Aldridge readily accepted, so he didn't run for the election until this year.

O'Neal mentioned this to him after the draft was drawn.

Judging from the current draft market, O'Neal's suggestion is not bad.

Then, what attracted Sun Hao's attention was the man Adam Morrison with a very personal goatee on his upper lip.

Morrison didn't play much in the NBA, suffering from diabetes and a torn cruciate ligament, he disappeared from the NBA after playing his rookie contract.

But this does not hinder his current popularity.

In a word, he averaged 28.1 points per game in the NCAA.

You read that right, the college league averaged close to 30 points per game.

Note that he is not a data brush. The data brush can't lead the team to the top 16 NCAA.

Moreover, his physical talent is not outstanding, he relies more on the points scored by his golf quotient and basketball skills.

According to the draft predictions, his offensive rhythm is incomprehensible, his reaction is always fast for his teammates and opponents, he can make Nowitzki-style backward jumpers, and he is also very good at one-handed toss shots on the move and excellent passes. And he worked very hard.

In the first two years of college, his three-pointers were weak, but in his junior year, he increased his three-pointers to 43%!

So his draft model is Larry Bird!

If you can use the king to make a template, you will know that it is not an ordinary person.

Then, Sun Hao's gaze swept over Rudy Gay.

Guy has outstanding talent and has something to do with him because Guy also graduated from the University of Connecticut.

Guy's luck in history is good, and he went to a relatively weak team at the beginning of his career.

The topic of "If Gay hadn't been traded by the Houston team, would Houston win the championship", there is actually a big question mark.

Because under Van Gundy, Guy has a high probability that everyone will be confused.

Then, "Yellow Mamba" Roy.

Roy's reputation in college is not as big as in the future. He only ran for four years in college.

This type of player is half of the overall talent, but in fact it is true. His first three years of college were relatively ordinary.

It wasn't until the final year that he became the core of the team, and with his outstanding performance, he won a good draft market.

Aldridge, Roy, Guy, Rondo, Millsap, Lowry...

This year's draft attention is not very high in history, but from the perspective of Sun Hao, a traverser, the quality of this rookie is not low at all.

What's more, now Durant has been added.

Sun Hao finally looked at Durant again.

Will the new king of Cleveland be born today?

The draft began soon, and Stern moved from behind the scenes to the front stage.

After a familiar opening remark, he announced the ownership of the first pick.

Because the transaction was completed before the draft, this pick belongs directly to the Warriors.

After Stern’s announcement, the Warriors have five minutes to consider.

Bargnani sat up straight at this moment unconsciously.

To become the first European champion in the history of the NBA, that historic moment is destined to be frozen, and he must take a good posture.

Although the enthusiasm shown by the Warriors is not as enthusiastic as the Raptors before, everyone knows that Oaklanders want him.

In his heart, he is also more inclined to join Oakland, which is close to the Bay Area, which is obviously much better than Toronto, Canada.

Five minutes later, Stern once again walked from behind the scenes to the front of the stage.

He was holding an envelope containing the results of the Warriors' draft.

In the stands, the Warriors fans looked at the stage expectantly at this time.

The Warriors have a brilliant history. They had only won the No. 1 pick in 1995 and selected Joe Smith.

Smith's performance in the Warriors period was worthy of his No. 1 overall status, but he ultimately failed to become a superstar.

Now that the team has won the second pick in team history through a trade, they are naturally looking forward to it.

And as the outside news reports, they also look forward to the team being able to select Bargnani.

If Bargnani can really become the next Nowitzki, the Warriors will definitely make a lot of money.

Stern opened the envelope.

Sun Hao also looked at the stage at this time.

Before, he thought the Warriors would lose out when they picked Bargnani, but now I think about it now that Nowitzki did not perform very well when he entered the league.

The old Nelson has experience in cultivating such a big European man. Maybe he can really train Bargnani?

Can't underestimate the butterfly effect. Look at Milicic in Cleveland. He also made an All-Star appearance in Cleveland!

"The first overall pick in the first round of the NBA in 2006, the Golden State Warriors chose...Kevin Durant, a 2.08-meter forward, from the National Christian College."

? ?

Sun Hao was taken aback for a moment.

The scene was also inexplicably quiet.

Then there was inexplicable restlessness.

Especially the Warriors fans, they already feel suspicious of life.

what's going on?

The Warriors picked Durant as the top pick?

In fact, let alone the fans, in the small green room, Bargnani, who was about to get up, sat stiffly in place.

And just not far from him, Durant, who was selected, was also confused.

This result came too suddenly for everyone.

As the staff walked up to Durant's side, Durant took the hat at his mother's reminder and put it on with a dazed expression.

Sun Hao also followed his thoughts.

Old Nelson's hand "Ming Xiu plank road darkly Chen Cang", yes!

Saying that they want Bargnani, the Cavaliers and Bobcats will not stop them, after all, they already have their favorite candidates.

When they really get the No. 1 lottery, they will decide which one to choose.

It's really smart.

But Sun Hao was even more surprised by Old Nelson's eyes.

Durant is no different from the same period in history, and the high school students who ran for the election in advance have a lot of uncertainty.

But after another thought, it seems reasonable, he is old Nelson after all!

Draft night in history took Nowitzki from the Bucks to the Mavericks, and through a series of operations to select Sun Hao, and then to Durant.

This ability is probably only inferior to the legendary man Jerry West.

In fact, the eyes of Old Nelson had already paid attention to Durant before.

It can even be said that after the draft pick was confirmed, the old Nelson has been committed to negotiating with all parties, wanting to get the draft rights of the other side.

The object of negotiation is constantly changing with the changes in Durant's draft market.

Until the end, knowing that the Cavaliers were interested in Durant, the old Nelson made a desperate move and paid the price of Byron Davis for the No. 1 pick.

This also shows that in the eyes of the old Nelson, Durant's upper limit will be much higher than Byron Davis.

Durant also gradually recovered from the awkward state, replaced by full of excitement.

He is the top pick!

That kind of surprise filled his mind.

As for whether to go to Cleveland or Oakland~www.ltnovel.com~, it doesn't matter to him.

Anyway, it's the same everywhere, the most important point is that he is the top pick!

Durant walked up happily, but there were boos in the arena.

The most boos came from Warriors fans.

They don't want Durant!

A 2m 08 player who can only shoot and can't even do an 84kg bench press during the trial. What's the use of this? !

Don't think that the fans' opinions are extreme. Durant played inside in high school and even college in history.

Without an open eye, no one thinks he can play a small forward or even a shooting guard.

In the Warriors’ draft cabin, the management is celebrating their selection of Durant, while Warriors fans are booing the people they celebrate.

This scene seemed a bit happy.
