Chapter 87 The 2000 NBA Draft (6K(3/3)

The domestic atmosphere will naturally change.

This can be called: the guiding force of the first person in the league.

This is really true. Even if he is a time traveler, he would not have thought of this level without the experience on site.

Moreover, when he was in Europe, he set a goal to turn basketball into the world's number one sport.

So before that, he became the first person in the NBA, which was another big goal he wanted to achieve under that.

Just as he was thinking, his thoughts were pulled back by Barkley and the others' words.

Before we knew it, the draft had reached the eleventh pick.

After Stern announced that the Celtics used this pick to choose Jerome Moiso, another 2.08-meter inside big man, Barkley and his team started again.

"I just saw Old Nelson greeting the Suns. Do you think the Mavericks can choose him with this pick?"

Kenny Smith throws a topic.

"You're crazy, Kenny, you're crazy!"

Barkley spoke loudly.

"Who can use the lottery pick to choose a point guard who is 1.83 meters tall? He is not Isaiah Thomas or Allen Iverson."

"Okay, I just said, but the Lakers will choose the Suns and I will still win."

Sun Hao didn't understand what the sun meant at first.

After they chatted for a few words, he noticed that it was a name, and he realized that the sun was referring to him.

Barkley and the others, who gave him a temporary nickname on the show that day, were really used like this.

After a while, Stern came out again.

He announced the Mavericks' 12th pick.

Itan Thomas, 2m 08,117 kg inside.

Same as in history.

No matter how much old Nelson likes Sun Hao, he can't choose him with a lottery show.

"Kenny, it's not that I want to hit you, but as a big guy, I have to tell you some cruel facts."

Barkley gained the upper hand and began to pursue the victory.

"Do you know who the Lakers' head coach is? Phil Jackson! Do you know what kind of point guard Phil likes? Tall point guard!"

Barkley's blade was unsheathed and Smith's head was taken straight.

This made Smith speechless.

Phil Jackson likes to play triangle offense and particularly advocates triangle offense.

In this offensive system, inside and defenders are the leaders, and what others have to do is cut in and defend.

So this is also why he loves tall defenders.

Because the tall defender has a large defense area, coupled with the partner's shooting guard and small forward, the opponent's offense can completely block the opponent's offense outside the free throw line.

This is the reason why Smith is speechless. Although he is not as famous as Barkley, he has played against the Bulls a lot during his time in Houston.

What Barkley said is actually nothing wrong.

Sun Hao rubbed his hands unconsciously at this time, and he felt that the draft promise was not that stable.

And slowly, as the draft pick continued to go backwards, he became nervous and uncontrollably.

The draft is going on very quickly and the Jazz are about to arrive.

Sun Hao's nervousness reached a peak at this time.

Among the teams he tried, the Jazz were the top pick.

"The Utah Jazz picks Dee at the 23rd pick in the first round of 2000...Shawn Stevenson, 1.96-meter-high shooting guard, from Fresno Washington United High School."

The Jazz chose Stevenson.

This choice is reasonable. The Jazz have always been famous for their iron blood, and they prefer the outside line with strong defensive capabilities.

As for whether it is suitable for pick-and-roll tactics, as Zanick said in an interview before, their coaching staff will solve this problem.

In the media area, Barkley continued to shout at Smith.

As the first round draft pick gets closer and closer, the possibility of him winning the bet becomes greater and greater.

"Sun, don't worry, the European defender has no chance of even entering the first round before."

Lasso spoke to comfort Sun Hao. When he was chatting during the day, he also learned about Sun Hao's trial training situation.

"I know."

Sun Hao's emotions did not fluctuate much either.

In fact, this result is expected.

Several other teams have given him draft promises on the open or private.

The Jazz didn’t, not choosing him is a normal operation, and choosing him is a surprise.

The Jazz didn't choose, and his nervousness gradually relaxed.

In this case, he will wait for the Lakers honestly.

If the Lakers also told Barkley that he didn't choose him in the end, then he would go to the Mavericks.

Under Old Nelson, there is nothing wrong with playing with Nowitzki.

And there is another advantage in the second round. There is no Arinas clause at this time, so he can seize the opportunity to get more money.

After all, the rules are not perfect at this time, and the money you earned in the first round is easy to be more than the last round of the first round.

He even took the opportunity to turn the Arenas clause into the Sun Hao clause, and it would not be a loss.

"Where is Ritchie Paul?"

Su Qun spoke at this time.

Only then did Sun Hao notice that his agent was no longer visible again.

After he relaxed, he wanted to complain that the other party used Christians to trap him almost didn't work.

"The 24th pick in the first round of 2000."

Stern walked out of the backstage for the 24th time.

"The Chicago Bulls choose...Sun Hao, 1.83-meter point guard, comes from China."
