This Forward is Not Serious Chapter 80

Before the official start of the draft, a collection of players from this year's draft was shown on the big screen in the center of the stage.

Many of the materials in the collection are taken from Crazy Three, and there are naturally Lin Ying's inside, and there is more than one shot.

Hibbert, and the final lore!

When Lin Ying appeared, the cheers of the fans on the scene were no less than that of Oden and Durant.

Although there is a gap in the ranking, this is a popular one!

When the documentary was over, the old man walked out from behind the scenes.

Then, boos all over the scene.

NBA president, David Stern's exclusive boo!

Stern is sixty to five this year, but he is still full of energy.

He smiled and faced the boos at the scene, waited until the boos fell, and then spoke:

"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, welcome to fans from all over the United States, American fans watching and Canadian fans watching, and fans all over the world. Welcome to the 2007 NBA Draft held in Madison Square Garden. Welcome. You join us."

Listening to the familiar opening remarks, Lin Yingmeng returned to 2K time.

Because of Xiao Hua's comparison, in his time, how many people missed this old man.

"The first pick belongs to the Seattle SuperSonics. They have five minutes to consider."

After announcing the ownership of the first pick, Stern smiled and signaled, then turned and walked backstage.

Anxious for five minutes.

At the broadcast booth, Barkley and Kenny Smith's discussions have entered a heated state.

This time TNT also invited well-known reporters, "The First Viper" Bill Simmons, and ESPN expert Charlie Ford.

Just as Barkley supported Oden and Kenny Smith supported Durant in yesterday's show, these two people are also on natural opposites.

Simmons supports Durant, while Ford supports Oden.

No one can persuade the other party, Fude opened the writer mode at this time, using a metaphor.

"Choosing Kevin Durant is like marrying a supermodel. She is beautiful and sexy. Everyone wants her, but after a few years? You have children and start a new life... She likes to participate every night. Party, leave you and your children at home."

"But choosing Greg Oden is to marry a girl you don't want to date, but she can spend her life with you, she will take good care of you, and will never mess around outside."

Durant: Meow? After all, I recognized my appearance!

With the heated discussion outside, the draft cabins of the Trail Blazers are also noisy.

It is not the same as in history, because both of them have too many reasons to be selected as the No. 1 pick, and the Trail Blazers have not yet decided the final answer until this time.

"Tim Duncan is old, and Greg Oden will be the next player to dominate the inside."

Pritchard, the general manager of the Trail Blazers, insisted on his choice.

"Kevin Durant is a player that has never been seen in the NBA. His shooting skills plus his height will make him an incomprehensible existence."

Hill, the Blazers' vice president of operations, also expressed his views.

"What we need is an anchor player. As long as Oden remains established, he can keep us competitive in the next 10 to 20 years, just like Tim Duncan did for the Spurs."

Pritchard continued.

"His college performance is not comparable to Tim Duncan. On the contrary, Kevin Durant is the player who easily dominates the college game. The last player to do that was Carmelo Anthony."

The main seat of the table, the president of team operations Larry Miller reached out and rubbed his temples.

He was previously an executive officer at Nike, and he took up his post with the Trail Blazers in June of this year.

I encountered this "happy trouble" in the first year of taking office.

The next two were arguing very hard, but in the end he still had to make the decision.

It's difficult!

This scene before me is so similar to 1984.

At that time, the Trail Blazers chose the former between Sam Bowie and Jordan.

Then Rhine, who made the decision, has been scolded until now.

Being an executive in the NBA is like walking on thin ice.

At this moment, the staff knocked on the door and asked them for the result envelope.

Both Pritchard and Hill looked at Miller.

"This is the right of the general manager."

Miller chose in the end...nothing.

Stern came out from the back of the stage again, already holding an envelope containing the results of the Trail Blazers' selection in his hand.

Lin Ying and Durant looked at each other at this time.

Becoming a champion is an honor.

Fans will remember who the top pick is every year, but there is a high probability that they don't know which one is the second place!

"The first overall pick in the first round of the NBA in 2007, the Portland Trail Blazers chose..."

Stern paused every day, everyone was watching.

Especially the Blazers fans at the scene unconsciously held their breath.

The Trail Blazers are more favored by the league in their ancestors, and have already had three No. 1 picks before.

But at that time the president of the league was still Larry O'Brien.

This is their first since David Stern came to power, and according to Stern's habits, it is likely to be the only one during his tenure.

So, I'm nervous!

After a good election, there may be no need to worry about the next ten or twenty years.

"Greg Oden, a 2.13 meter center, from Ohio State University."

Orden!

The scene shots were given to Oden as soon as possible.

Oden smiled like a 49-year-old uncle and got up, hugged the people around him, took the Blazers hat from the staff, and walked onto the stage with ease.

Outside the lens, Durant's eyes are inevitably lost.

His green lucky **** didn't seem to help him in the end.

At this time, Lin Ying got up and walked to Durant's side, stretched out her hand and pressed his shoulder to relax him.

Although history has not changed Oden's position as the top pick, this is actually a good thing.

Durant has unlimited possibilities to go to the Trail Blazers. After all, the Trail Blazers already have Roy and Aldridge.

Coupled with Durant, there is great hope of winning the championship in two or three years.

Although Roy is fragile, waste is also a thing after 2010, and there is not enough time.

But... who knows if Durant will be scrapped by the Trail Blazers!

The ability of the team doctor in this place is really daunting.

And with Roy, Durant doesn't have enough shot rights, and there is a certain probability that he won't be able to play.

As if changing teams will still play the same performance as in history, that is a plot only in the novel.

In comparison, the SuperSonics, let alone whether they can win the championship, Durant will at least be as steady as the super giant in history.

Lin Ying just saw Oden and Stern taking a photo after sitting back.

He suddenly remembered how Oden recommended an old Chinese doctor to him before.

I don't know what the old Chinese doctor named Tang Tian did to Oden, or whether there will be some changes in Oden's career.

If possible, he really needs to get to know him.

The Trail Blazers made a choice, and the Sonics would save trouble.

In the final draft of "NBAdraft", Oden and Durant both scored 106 points, and Horford, who was third, had only 95 points.

These two are the only players among rookies. If one is selected, the other will automatically become the second place.

"The second overall pick in the first round of the NBA in 2007, the Seattle SuperSonics chose Kevin Durant, a 2.06 small forward from the University of Texas."

Stern didn't pause this time, and directly and simply announced the Sonics' choice.

The Seattle fans at the scene were very happy.

Because it's not the No. 1 pick, there is no initiative, but no matter which one you choose, you won't lose!

And they are looking forward to Durant and Ray Allen's double gun combination!

Under the camera, Durant also stood up. He first hugged his mother Wanda, then hugged his brother Tony, and then he greeted other people one after another.

Finally, he walked to Lin Ying's table and habitually bumped Lin Ying's shoulder.

Finally, he took over the hat belonging to the Sonics from the staff.

The more interesting thing is that he didn't laugh the whole time after he appeared in the camera, and the screen was full of that **** temperament.

The first two picks are the same as in history, and the latter seems to have not changed much.

The Hawks with the third overall pick chose Al Horford.

The Grizzlies chose Mike Conley with the fourth overall pick.

All the way to the 5th overall pick.

The Celtics are considered to be special among the draft teams this year.

Because just at the end of October last year, Auerbach, a legendary NBA legend and a meritocracy of the Celtics, passed away.

The cigar that never extinguished, finally returned to the dust.

Auerbach has brought 16 championships to the Celtics. It can be said that Auerbach is equivalent to the Celtics in the impression of many fans.

The fact is true. After Auerbach's retirement, the Celtics have never been involved in a championship.

So at such a special time node, in addition to the draft, they also consider other ways to get the team back into the championship.

Especially, when they failed to get the No. 1 or No. 2 pick as they wished.

"The fifth overall pick in the first round of the NBA in 2007, the Boston Celtics chose Jeff Green, a 2.03 meter small forward from Georgetown University."

When he heard this, Lin Ying knew that the Celtics Big Three had arrived as promised!

Because if you really choose people to train, this position Yi Jianlian is the most suitable.

After all, the Celtics already have Pierce, and Green has gone to a basic conflict of position.

And Yi Jianlian not only does not conflict with Pierce, nor even with Al Jefferson.

Coupled with the Chinese market behind it, that is what Anji would make in his normal draft.

Oh, by the way, don't underestimate the Chinese market in the Stern era.

The money Yao Ming made for Alexander may be invisible or immeasurable, but the owners of other teams can see it clearly.

When the Bucks with the sixth overall pick were thinking about it, the scene was already full of restlessness.

Because ESPN has already exposed transaction information.

The Celtics sent out the No. 5 picks Jeff Green, Szebiak and Dronte West just selected, and got the No. 35 pick of the Sonics, and Ray Allen!

Although Ray Allen is 31 years old, he was still the core of the Sonics last season, averaging 26.4 points, 4.5 boards and 4.1 assists per game.

Of course, the reaction of the fans is definitely different from Lin Ying, because they didn't know that the Celtics would get Garnett from the Timberwolves in a month!

Then Jeff Green was a bit miserable.

At this moment, he just came to the stage to be interviewed by reporters, expressing the excitement of playing for the Celtics.

As a result, the interview was not over yet, and a staff member came to remind me of the transaction.

Lin Ying couldn't help but feel sorry for Green.

But it's okay. If history doesn't change, Green will still play for the Celtics.

The interview with Green is not over yet, and the results of the Bucks are also out.

Yi Jianlian!

It's the same as in history.

Lin Ying looked at Yi Jianlian at this time, and he could clearly feel the unhappiness on Yi Jianlian's face.

In addition to concealing his lack of confrontation, Fegan did a series of show operations for him. There is also a more critical reason, that is, he wants him to go to the team he wants to go to.

Just as Handy and Lin Ying said before, for rookies, unless it is the No. 1 pick, a suitable team is far more important than a few picks.

In Fagan's judgment, a suitable team includes a good market.

This is why the team he chooses to try out for Yi Jianlian will be the Eagles, Celtics and Warriors.

The market for these three teams is not small, and there are many Chinese.

When neither the Hawks nor the Celtics were selected in the end, the Warriors became the most suitable choice.

In fact, in the Warriors' draft cabin, general manager Mullin and head coach Nelson were very excited when they saw that the Celtics did not pick Yi Jianlian.

Because Yi Jianlian did not go to other teams for trial training, the probability of the other two teams choosing him is unlikely.

You know that Yi Jianlian is very suitable for old Nelson's running and bombing style!

However, the Bucks are outrageous when Cheng Yaojin came here!

Not only did they not try out Yi Jianlian alone, but Yi Jianlian demonstrated training at the beginning. There was no Bucks in the dozen or so teams!

You are opening the blind box, brother!

But there is no way, the Bucks originally wanted to choose Conley and was selected, they chose the most talented of the remaining players they thought was the best.

After reluctantly holding a smile and taking a photo with Stern, UU read www.uukanshu.com and Yi Jianlian showed dissatisfaction when he went to the stage for an interview with reporters.

"I didn't know that the Bucks wanted to choose me before, because they hadn't come to see me in the previous trial, and I didn't know much about the Bucks. I still need time to adapt to the overall style and style of this team. And adjustments."

The Bucks have hurt the Warriors the most in this wave of cuts.

Because it is impossible to get Yi Jianlian with their original No. 18 pick, they had already reached a deal with the Bobcats before the draft began.

They sent out Jason Richardson and Davidson, and this year's No. 36 pick was traded for the Bobcats' No. 8 pick.

This wave of humiliation forced them to start their own B plan.

The seventh overall Timberwolves chose Corey Brewer.

After another five minutes, Stern walked out with an envelope containing the Warriors' draft results.
