609 Reinforcement of opponents
Seeing the sturdy Harden stepping onto the rostrum with pride, Old Nelson sighed rarely and began to praise the rookie: "If anyone in this rookie has the ability to directly play the combat power in the game, then it is this kid. He is already an NH-level player, with unparalleled maturity and can quickly improve the combat power of a team."
West was dissatisfied and said, "I'm going to make him shaved. I'll fucking blowjob, so his mother can't recognize who he is."
Chamberlain laughed and said, "If this guy shaved his beard, his mother would definitely not recognize him."
Nelson Jr. also said: "Don't underestimate him, guys, this is an excellent pitcher, a scorer who no one can defend in college. He has a height, he has a variety of shooting methods, and is good at scoring in physical confrontation. He is very similar to Pierce, without top physical fitness, but has a whole set of offensive routines that can deceive all defenders. He will be an excellent forward and guard swinger. He can shoot well, has reasonable offensive choices, and is very calm. He has excellent speed change ability and improved ball control ability, and will become a top player in the league."
Old Nelson rubbed his temples and said depressedly: "Damn it, why did the Thunder always choose the right guy in the past three years? Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, DeAndrew Jordan, and now there is James Harden. Their choice is very beautiful."
This means that the Warriors will have another strong opponent next season.
The Thunder were about to hate the Warriors. They finally made it to the playoffs, but the Warriors mercilessly swept it, and Durant's little heart was swept out of the shadow.
Harden obviously has more confidence in himself. He spoke on the rostrum and said: "I'm glad I can go to a young team. I'm glad I'll be able to work with a few particularly outstanding young people. I'll definitely bring extraordinary strength to them. You know, I'm not just a shooter, I can also be a good defender and a good ball handler."
The fourth pick was from the Kings, who chose a strong outside swingman, Tyrek Evans.
As Nelson said, this year's rookies lack good inside, but high-quality outside are emerging one after another. Evans was rated as a genius who has only produced one in the NHA in ten years. His physical talent is enviable and he can play from point guard to small forward. Fans of the Memphis Tigers where he was in college believe that Evans will become a shooting guard who controls the ball at critical moments like Brandon Roy, or become an attacking point guard with amazing athletic power, like his predecessor, Derek Ross, who has been the No. 1 pick in 2016, or an attacking point guard with amazing athletic power.
Just a year ago, the NCAA had a huge "battle for Evans". In the end, Evans held a press conference to end the battle. He eventually rejected the warm invitation from his hometown's university Villanova, but went away to Memphis and defected to the famous coach John Coryparry, because a No. 1 pick Ross had just stepped out there, and Coryparry believed that Evans would fill the vacancy left by Ross. In the question of people's still "is he a point guard or a shooting guard", Evans spent most of the season proving that he was the absolute main controller of the Tigers.
Evans has the movement ability that football players covet. The first step with explosive power allows him to easily hold the ball to create scoring opportunities. He can easily dribble the ball to win points for himself or his teammates. His excellent singles ability has become the key to the University of Memphis to overcome all the skills. His waist and abdomen are full of strength, bounce and air control skills, allowing him to adjust freely in the air like any NHA swimmer, avoid the opponent's disturbance, and easily score layups.
The fifth and sixth draft picks are in the hands of the Timberwolves, which makes Old Nelson very jealous. If the Warriors have such a good opportunity... Of course, this is a dream. If they don't trade a good draft pick, Old Nelson believes that they will not want to get the twenty-five previous draft picks in the next dozen seasons.
"What kind of guy do you think the Timberwolves will choose? One outside, one inside, one shooting guard, one center, or one organization guard and one power forward? They seem to be very interested in the so-called Spanish Golden Boy." Chamberlain asked enthusiastically.
Old Nelson thought about it and said, "It should be a point guard and a power forward, right? But they won't choose a Spanish defender. That guy is not sure whether he can come to NHAfTI. Even if he wants to come, his buying-out is a big problem. Do you think the stingy Timberwolves will pay such a big money for this.
After his words fell, Stern said: "Minnesota Timberwolves chose the point guard from Juventus, Spain, Ricky Rubio, in the fifth pick."
Old Nelson suddenly widened his eyes and murmured: "Damn, when did the Minnesotans become so generous? Will they really buy out the contract for the small Spanish man? They really invested a lot."
The handsome and handsome Rubio smiled and went on stage. The slender and thin little handsome guy shook hands with Stern and turned around to wave to the audience. His handsome and heroic posture caused a large group of female fans to scream wildly, and there were also NHAI stars' wives and girlfriends. This made the old guys who were taller than the sky very dissatisfied. They have always seduced other people's wives, but now someone is poaching their corners.
Chamberlain immediately received a call from Kobe, and Pan gritted his teeth and said, "What record did you set in Minnesota last time? Score 6, right? Fuck, I will get 70fJ next time."
Immediately, the voice of Kobe's beautiful wife Vanessa came from the microphone: "Oh my God, it's so handsome, he's so handsome."
Kidd's phone call came over and said angrily: "Hey, if you can throw the Spanish Cowherd 10 goals in future games, then after my contract with the Mavericks ends, I will go to Oakland to pass the ball to you with the veteran's minimum salary."
Shortly after Kidd divorced his wife, he found an extremely beautiful female model to be his new love. Obviously, the second in charge of the Mavericks brought his new love to watch the draft. It is even more obvious that the brainless female model was fascinated by the handsome Spanish Golden Boy. How could Master Kidd, who claims to be a veteran of flowers, bear it?
Then, Stern read the Timberwolves' second choice: "The sixth pick, the Minnesota Timberwolves chose the point guard Johnny Furning from Syracuse University, let's welcome the guy to the NHAj."
The audience was stunned, and Old Nelson even stared at him and seemed to have Alzheimer's disease. In fact, it was not because everyone had too little imagination. Stern, who had been knowledgeable before, was shocked. According to the rules, he wanted to read the rookie's origin (school or nationality), height, position, and finally the name. However, Stern had not read height just now, and he was just the name.
Ferning was extremely excited. He hugged his parents and relatives and Syracuse University alumni one by one, and then walked onto the rostrum with big strides. Stern was still shocked. He didn't know if the Timberwolves' mareball cap should be handed out. He was wondering if the Timberwolves would give the wrong name?
Foning was also afraid of this, so after he came on stage, he snatched the baseball cap from the old man and put it on his head. He directly cooked a rice and cooked it. He said excitedly: "I really didn't expect, ladies and gentlemen, I didn't expect the Timberwolves to pick me in the sixth pick. Oh my God, they had chosen a defender just now, and I thought I wouldn't be selected again..."
We also think so, except for the Timberwolves Uniform Group, everyone thought so at this moment.
"After the identification, the Timberwolves' uniform team was his mother from the psychiatric hospital." Old Nelson said calmly, and finally couldn't help complaining about his desire. He kicked the table and shouted, "Fuck, he deserves the bottom of the West, he deserves the bottom of the fish for a lifetime, he deserves Garnett to run away, fuck, what a good draft pick, it's just wasted, what are these idiots thinking about? I don't want to trade it to us, dad, dad, this is a waste of resources? Is this XIB selection? Is this my own rhythm of killing me?"
Chamberlain quickly comforted the old man: "There is no quick-acting heart-saving pill here. Old man, you have to be more at ease. They will be willing to die by themselves. It has nothing to do with us. It's better to look at our own people as soon as possible. If someone intercepts them in advance, it would be a bad thing."
The draft continued, and there were many outstanding outside players in this class. DeRozan, Jennings, Terrence Williams and others were selected one by one. After that, the Pacers, Suns and Pistons selected three inside players in a row, Hansblu, Clark, and Dayer. Hansblu was the one that the Warriors looked at, but it was predicted that he would not fall outside the second pick at the time, so although he was a little disappointed, the Warriors were not panicked.
After that, in the 19th place, the Hawks chose the defender Jeff Teague who had a good relationship with Chamberlain during the trial, and the Jazz chose the purest organizational guard Eric Meno in the second pick. It seems that Sloan is still unscrupulous to Stockton and is determined to train another pure point guard who can command the league's outside.
In the second IM position, it was the Warriors' turn to select players. Stern opened the envelope, looked at the roster and raised his head and smiled: "The Golden State Warriors chose the six-foot-nine power forward Ty Gibson from the University of Southern California. Congratulations to this team, they got an outstanding young man who can improve their strength a lot, and give the same congratulations to this young man, because he is about to join the most successful team last season, a championship-level team."
Gibson jumped up excitedly and punched hard. Two middle-aged black couples stood beside him, naturally his parents. Gibson hugged his parents, fisted with his brothers to celebrate, and then trotted all the way to the rostrum, took over the Warriors' baseball cap and brought it to his head.
After discussion, the Warriors finally decided to choose Gibson, mainly because there was no better choice. This year, those who could make Old Nelson like the outside line, but after reaching the 20th pick, even if the outside line can get into Old Nelson's eyes, there would be no chance to come to the Warriors. Curry and Morrow will squeeze them to death. After all, Iverson and Billups are both in their years of playing, and they are the absolute main players, and there is also West waiting to be fed.
The Warriors' interest in Gibson is his excellent physical fitness. In addition, according to the data, he is a very efficient player with sharp steps, defense and rebounding are his strengths, and his starting speed is also very fast. Old Nelson believes that his awareness of grabbing the board is first-class. When Chamberlain is not on the court, he can bring great help to the team.
However, Gibson's offensive ability is quite poor. Old Nelson thinks that he has a diligent and motivated heart, so he is ready to take a gamble to see if he can cultivate him
When the Warriors chose Gibson, the Bulls' box suddenly became a little cold. Ross scratched his head in confusion and asked, "Didn't you say this guy is more suitable for our system? What should I do now?"
Thibodeau is really optimistic about Gibson. What he values is the latter's defensive ability, defensive attitude and defensive potential. In addition, Gibson's strong and iron-blooded style is very suitable for his tactical arrangements.
