Legendary Basketball Tycoon

After returning Nash to Canada, the Bruce side lacked a master, but fortunately, when he traded Garnett to the Nets, he got the "alien" Sam Cassell, a good point guard. , So the easiest way now is to put Sam Cassell in the starting position.

Choosing Tyronn Lue with the 14th pick was to make him substitute Sam Cassell.

Of course, this is also because Bruce had seen Tyronn Lu playing with Yao Ming in his previous life. What's more, he had a good personal relationship with Yao Ming and he was particularly interested in Chinese culture. Those who are all familiar can no longer be familiar. He is a rare person who understands both the game and the interpersonal relationship. There is absolutely no problem in choosing him to the team.

As for the strength, it's still going to be, because it's the team's substitute, and no motorcycles, bike-level ones are fine.

(If the personal strength is not good, it means that the contract is not high. The main reason is that the renewal problems of the first few masters are too big and too heavy. If you can save it here, save it.)

In the end, the New York Hans selected Ryan Bowen (small forward shooting guard) with the 46th pick in the second round of the draft.

There is no way that the small forward position is really bad. Chris Mullin is already old. It is obviously unrealistic to let him play the whole game. And Chris Mullin himself has suffered several serious injuries, so he can't use it. Chris Mullin played the whole game, and 20 minutes was fine.

But here comes the problem. The substitute at the small forward position is Bruce Bowen. This kid is indeed a bit ruthless. He is more ruthless than Rashid Wallace. The main reason is to step on the opposing star players, so he often suffers from technical offences. Was sent off, so that Stephen Jackson often had to make up for the small forward position.

This is embarrassing, so the New York Hans used the 46th pick in the second round to select Rian Bowen, the applicable small forward.

Rian Bowen is a recognized defensive expert, able to supervise outside scorers and defend big players. The attitude of the game is very good, and he is the most engaged player on the field; doing everything possible to complete his field tasks.

Although Rian Bowen played at the small forward position, the actual offensive skills were very lacking. Mainly depends on his defense.

Another named Bowen, another defensive expert, Ryan Bowen can make up for the embarrassing situation that Bruce Bowen is often suspended after being suspended.

Of course, I chose Rian Bowen because Bruce knew that he had also partnered with Dayao in the two years of 04-05, so Bruce should choose right at this point. Besides, isn’t it just a second-round pick? It was not worth much in the 90s, and it was no problem to choose a familiar one.

In fact, Bruce had thought about using this second round pick to play the center position of "Big White Bear" Brad Miller.

But considering that the team's center still has Mourning and Sam Perkins at this time, Brad Miller must not have much time to play. It is obviously not worthwhile to use a second-round signing in this period.

The most important thing is that Bruce knows that Brad Miller is one of the representatives who lost the draft. Since he lost the draft in his previous life, please continue to lose the draft. Isn't it good to pick up for nothing?

So at the beginning of the summer league, the Bruce asked general manager Mitch Kupchak to contact Brad Miller to try out the team and play in the summer league.

Not surprisingly, Brad Miller will join the New York Hans freely as a loser.

Of course, the Bruce did not stop reinforce the footsteps of the strength of the team, didn't Hu Weidong give it to the Mavericks, after Dell Curry left, Kobe really needs a suitable substitute.

Another shooting guard, Stephen Jackson, is a defensive master. In the New York Hans system, the backup shooting guard must be the master who wants to chase points. It is Dale Curry or Hu Weidong who is almost coming. The offense is definitely very strong, Stephen Jackson, obviously the offensive end must not be counted on, so it is better to find a strong offensive substitute.

In the end, Bruce searched for a long time, and finally let him find a substitute for Kobe, that is, from the subsidiary Seattle SuperSonics. Anyway, the Seattle SuperSonics will definitely fall on Bruce in the end, so good. Ah, it's not an exaggeration to dig your own corner in advance.

The New York Hans used the 1999 New York Hans first-round unprotected lot + John Wallace and the Seattle SuperSonics to trade to get Michael Finley (shooting guard).

Michael Finley's offensive ability relies on his outstanding jumping and strength. The inside offense is often completed with slam dunks and drawbars; he has high-quality jump shots, takes off high, and has high shot points; his vision and consciousness are not bad, and he makes quick moves without the ball. The threat of follow-up is outstanding. On the defensive side, risky steals are rarely attempted. With superior physical fitness, they usually swing against the opponent's strongest attacking front, which also increases the difficulty of defense to a certain extent. (Is a player who is stronger offensively than defensively)

In this way, Kobe has a good substitute. The key is that Michael Finley has a positive defensive attitude. He is a role model for young players in training. He takes the team's victory as the first goal and never causes trouble on and off the court. , Is the kind of player that coaches are most assured of.

The most important point of this is that the sentiment is too gentle, the lack of dominance on the court, and the fact that it is not to fight or rush is very much to Bruce. Bruce is afraid of those who like to play against players who are clearly capable and have to challenge the starting players. They need big contracts and the like. This kind of person is the most annoying for Bruce.

To be honest, the New York Hans made such a reinforcement, and their overall strength did not drop but increased. Although Nash's departure made the team's offensive and defensive transition a lot slower, the team's firepower was fierce!

Imagine that Sam Cassell is in possession of the ball, Kobe and Nowitzki are in charge of scoring, and Mourning is mainly responsible for the defense, plus a Chris Mullin who puts cold guns on from time to time, let alone this. The lineup is not bad.

Let’s look at almost all defensive players sitting on the bench. Defensive players such as Jermaine O’Neal, Bruce Bowen, Rian Bowen and Stephen Jackson will substitute for the team’s starting games at any time. , Coupled with the training of defensive master Chuck Daley, this team's defensive strength is not less than that of the Pistons.

Of course, it cannot be said that there are no points on the bench. Sam Perkins has a three-pointer on the inside, and guard Michael Finley's offense is not bad, right?

The New York Hans in the 98-99 season might really be able to perform miracles.
