The Rest, Only Noise

After that, the option came to the Bulls.

Getting the No. 2 pick in their bad first year is a good start, but they don't have many options.

It could even be said that there is only one option.

The choice left to them was Brigham Young University's Sean Bradley.

When we talk about giants over 2.2 meters tall with extraordinary speed and athleticism, Bradley is always overlooked.

From these two points, he is on the same level as Sampson, but Sampson is 30 pounds heavier than him.

Some say he is the biggest bet in professional basketball since Billy Owens.

Being involved with Owens doesn't bode well for any player heading into the league.

The Bulls didn't make the cut, and while Bradley is 95-to-5 (95% vs. 5%), they can't miss a potentially great center.

As a result, Bradley was selected with the second overall pick, without any surprises.

Compared with other players, Bradley's conversation is the most surprising place.

This probably has something to do with him wasting his talent to missionary in Australia for two years.

Famous reporter Greg Seger asked Bradley: "Everyone is talking about what you can do in the NBA, you could have been in the league two years ago, now how do you make up for lost time? "

"I think it's going to be a long process. I mean, it's going to take time, but I have to work really hard, start from scratch, and stay healthy."

"What do you think of your athleticism? We've seen your highlights and we know how tall you are, but how do you assess your talent?"

Bradley's answer is a classic, and Louie strongly recommends that all seven-foot centers copy it.

"I'm just a 7-foot-6 kid who loves to play basketball."

It's a joke, of course, but it's a light-hearted joke.

He continued: "I think being able to play a lot of team sports when I was a kid was a lifelong experience, I love playing basketball, and I want to go down that path and try to be the best I can be. "

When people talked about the two years he wasted in Australia, Bradley's response was also respectful: "I wouldn't trade anything for missionary experience, it's the most precious thing in my life."

He's not necessarily a great player, and it's hard to deliver talent, but he's a good guy.

"A lot of the big guys give me a brainless feeling, but this white kid is pretty smart," Baylor said.

Lao Mo's usual sarcastic attitude towards this rookie made him say: "If he can speak good scenes, he can't let him play center in professional games."

Louis glanced at Zhao Yuanzheng: "Didn't you call?"

"So far, not yet." Zhao Yuanzheng said.

Just when Louis felt strange, the call came.

Louie motioned for Baylor to answer the call.

"Hello, I'm Elgin," Baylor said skillfully, picking up the phone.

Then Baylor clutched the phone and said, "It's Nelly (Nielsen)."

Louie flipped his palm slightly, motioning for Baylor to continue talking.

"What's the matter, Nelly, is it your turn to choose?"

"Ah...give me a minute."

Baylor put down the phone and said directly: "They want to trade the third pick."

"Good guy, doesn't it mean that Anfernee has completed the best trial training ever, and Nellie doesn't want it?" Lao Mo has a certain prejudice against this rookie, "I guess he should not use a chicken to play the ball. Bounce into the basket."

Louie asked, "What does he want?"

"Shaun and all the draft picks we have, they're going to use William Bedford to balance the money."

Baylor asked inexplicably, "Who is this William?"

Zhao Yuanzheng replied in seconds: "Benj's classmate, he was the fifth pick that year, but his progress was not smooth, and he never fulfilled his talent."

Louie is not interested in this deal.

"Thank you for your kindness, Nelly, but we really don't need any William Bedford."

Louie wants to trade Sally, but someone else is trying to figure out Camp.

He suspected Nelson was deliberately teasing himself.

With the third pick but unable to shoot, Nelson seems to have to choose Anfernee Hardaway.

It was a "hard" choice.

"Don Nelson said after Penny's workout that he'd never seen anything like that in a workout, and now he's managed to bring Penny back to Golden State."

"I think they're going to have some trouble."

"Tim Hardaway, Gary Payton, Anfernee Hardaway ... too many ball handlers."

That's why Nelson struggles.

Doesn't he know how good Hardaway is? Of course he knew, but it was enough of a headache for him to allocate ball rights to the Beetles and the gloves, and now there's another penny called the second-generation Magician.

The Webb-Pence deal didn't happen, which completely changed the trajectory of their careers.

Judging by the results of Louis' previous life, there was no winner in that deal.

Webber went to Golden State, who wanted him, but was reluctant to play the five under Nelson. He felt like a 4, and the 5 had too much of a job.

Children who grew up in the AAU era have a remarkable feature of excess self-awareness.

They emphasize the individual, not the team, plus they signed a huge contract when they first entered the league, and even had all kinds of strange clauses in the contract. Webber helped that Warriors team to 50 wins and then wanted to leave. Unlike those players who were locked up by rookie contracts in the future, although Webber was also on a rookie contract at the time, he had a second-year jump-out clause—yes, there was a second-year jump-out clause in the rookie contract because the Warriors’ There is not enough salary cap space. In order to let Webber regress in money, they have to accept this unequal agreement-Webber, who is incompatible with Nelson, threatened to leave in the second year. The Warriors could not afford to lose him in vain. Packed him up overnight to Washington.

This ruined Webb's career, playing in Washington in the '90s, just like Japan's top newcomer in the dark world chose to debut in F club. Both institutions have a reputation for ruining talent.

At the same time, Pence shined in Orlando, reaching the Finals with the Sharks, becoming the most unquestioned Jordan successor of the era, and looking like he had a chance to dominate the first decade of the new century. Then, when O'Neal left in the summer of 1996, Pence's body couldn't support the strength of a single-core team, and he died, falling like a shooting star.

From the results, Webb and Hardaway's transaction results are extremely bad.

Now, the deal has not happened.

Pence went to Warriors, Webb went to Magic.

Two 75-level players are about to usher in a new chapter in their careers.

Now, the history of the league will have some more questions.

Will Sharks still be gone in 1996? Could Webber be Batman's side Robin? Can they challenge the Knicks for the throne in the next few years?

As for Pence, he'll no doubt take Tim Hardaway's place, then learn how to play next to Payton, Richmond, Hu Weidong, Gatlin, and shine in Nelson's system with every opportunity to be Top 35 or even top 25 players in NBA history.

After winning the Warriors, Nelson did not wait for the ball-holders in the team to form a table to play mahjong, but decisively initiated the transaction.

He contacted Orlando.

The reason why the Magic wanted to get Hardaway at one time was that in addition to the Sharks, they also had a quasi-All-Star insider Ronnie Sekkali, but the combination of his twin towers and the Sharks was too slow, which seriously affected the rhythm. With Webber, Seikali is tasteless to them.

The Magic need a good point guard and a clutch ball handler, and Tim Hardaway can fill that urgency.

The two sides hit it off.

The Magic sent Ronnie Sekkali and the 1995 and 1997 first-round picks to Golden State in exchange for Tim Hardaway.

Selly is still in Louis's hands.

Some teams wanted to prostitute for free, but were rudely dismissed by Baylor.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, with the fourth overall pick, did the job for everyone.

They have two choices in front of them. Jamal Mashburn, who was born in a prestigious school, has made great achievements in college and was praised by Rick Pitino as "a humble young man who is very willing to accept guidance". Can three or four, can play low, can also pull out to shoot, the shooting range can reach the NBA's three-point line, is an offensive kaleidoscope, the standard core of team building;

Another option is Isiah Ryder, a UNLV-born, under the tutelage of Jerry Tarkanian ~www.readwn.com~ to become the top offensive machine in college basketball, his final season average 29 points. Ryder is the kind of player a rebuilding team likes, he can make a difference right away, and he can sell tickets even if he can't win. But UNLV in the Tarcanian era often produced problem players because of the school's poor recruiting record, and Ryder was a problem player among problem players.

He has no sense of responsibility, doesn't like training, has a lot of trouble off the court, and has a history of beating up his girlfriend.

Cavaliers: I can choose a humble young man who is capable of three, four and willing to accept guidance as the core of our team, but I will not!

They selected Isaiah Ryder with the fourth overall pick in the first round.

This made the Spurs with the fifth pick overjoyed, they selected Mashburn without hesitation, and declared like a big bargain: "We will build a very competitive team around Jamal. team."

The Mavericks selected Vin Baker with the sixth overall pick in the first round.

The Nuggets selected Carl Porter Chaney, the college basketball player of the year, with the seventh overall pick in the first round.

The Minnesota Timberwolves selected Rodney Rodgers (RersPF/SF) with the eighth overall pick in the first round.

The ball hit Louis's feet at once.

"This..." Louie asked in confusion, "No choice for Bobby Hurley (B)?"
