The three-point line is really too close

Chapter 278 The draft is in progress!A chance to get the United Arab Emirates?
Oden, who was dressed in a black suit, looked a little nervous, and the brim of his white baseball cap was pulled down very low.

Although he didn't think he would miss the No. [-] Scholar, but in this scene, no one can't help but feel worried about gains and losses.

Finally, when David Stern announced that he became the No. 2007 pick in the NBA in 50, this young man with a mature face like a [-]-year-old man also showed a bright smile that matched his actual age.

Oden made a point of kissing his mother beside him before taking the stage to shake Stern's hand.

Becoming the No. 2200 pick means that he got a four-year contract of about [-] million U.S. dollars, which is not only the highest among rookies, but also not low when looking at the entire league.

In the CCTV studio, Director Wei Ping made his own comments:
"The Trail Blazers next season need to be taken seriously. They have a lot of young players and they are all very capable. Now with Oden on the inside, this is a threat to the teams in the West, including the Warriors and Rockets."

Then, a figure of You, Xiaoshuai appeared on the screen.

There was no surprise in the Sonics' selection, with Kevin Durant coming in at No. [-] this year.

"That's to be expected. Durant and Oden are another level of players. They have a strength that no one else can defend. Durant is an offensive player. At the Beacon, he was considered a The most offensive rookie since Jordan."

Director Wei Ping talked eloquently.

Subsequently, the Atlanta Hawks selected Al Horford from the University of Florida.

The Memphis Grizzlies selected Oden's teammate Mike Conley with the fourth pick.

It was previously reported that the Celtics with the fifth pick were most likely to choose Yi Jianlian, but in the end they chose Georgetown University swingman Jeff Green.

"It seems that your little fellow is going to Milwaukee." Mullin smiled, "I've always heard that the Bucks are very interested in him, but I didn't expect them to succeed in intercepting him."

"Milwaukee is also good. Isn't that where Kareem came out? A small place may not be able to produce MVPs, it all depends on his efforts."

As soon as Zhang Bolong finished speaking, the Bucks with the sixth pick gave their choice.

Yi Jianlian!
Ah Lian stood up, took the Bucks' white hat from the staff, and then went straight to David Stern.

"Welcome to the NBA, Yi, I hope you can be as good as Yao and Long."

"Thank you, Mr. President."

Zhang Bolong also took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the two shaking hands.

Seeing Ah Lian full of confidence on the stage, he couldn't help but feel emotional.

In his previous life, Yi Jianlian's expression when he took the stage could be described as tangled. There was not much joy in his stiff smile, but a little helplessness.

Even in an interview after the draft, he said the result was unexpected:
"The Bucks games are seldom broadcast in China, and they haven't been to watch my games, and I haven't been in contact with them, so I don't have much impression of the Bucks team, and I don't know much about their city. Anyway, I I am very happy to have the opportunity to play in the NBA."

This is a very unprofessional answer.

In fact, it's not that the Bucks haven't watched the UAE game.

Their scouts have observed Yi Jianlian no less than 20 times in the past four years, including detailed investigations during the 2004 Athens Olympics and the 2006 World Cup.

However, the Bucks' invitation to Yi Jianlian to try out before the draft was rejected by the UAE's agent Dan Fagan.

In Zhang Bolong's view, the economic man has to bear half of the ups and downs of Ah Lian's career in the NBA.

It's not that his professional ability is not good, but that there are some problems in the way he adopted Ah Lian.

In the name of LeBron James' "Son of the Chosen", didn't he honestly go to the small city of Cleveland?
How can a rookie from China have the right to be picky?

If it were Zhang Bolong, no matter which team selected him, he would happily express his love for the team and appreciation for the players.

But Ah Lian said very bluntly that "I am not familiar with them, and my mind is blank"... No matter how you look at it, it means that you don't want to play for the Bucks.

And Fagan even said that he would work hard to trade the United Arab Emirates.

This can be regarded as defeating the popularity of passers-by and the perception of new teammates.

Fortunately, the manager of the UAE in this world is no longer Dan Fagan, but has also become Freeman recommended by Lan Dongliang.

Of course, Lao Fu will not let the United Arab Emirates repeat the same mistakes.

However, the director Wei Ping in the studio said with regret: "First of all, I would like to congratulate Ah Lian for successfully becoming China's No.5 player in the NBA. Deer, he will most likely be traded to another team."

This also represents the meaning of most Huaxia fans.

In fact, where the style is not suitable, do you have a strong personal style as a CBA player in your early 20s?
Don't you think this team has a small market and is not well-known...

But as far as the United Arab Emirates is concerned, he is still very pleased with the result.

At least he still remembered Zhang Bolong's exhortation, as a player, playing well is the first priority.

At the very least, as a Chinese player, he has the backing of the motherland that countless people envy, and he will be the focus of the camera no matter where he is.

What are you afraid of if the market is small? No matter how big the market is, can it surpass Huaxia?
At the same time that Yi Jianlian was selected by the Bucks, Mullin's cell phone rang.

After a while, he turned around and said to Zhang Bolong:
"The Bucks sent a message, asking if we would like to trade with them with Andrees plus the draft pick or Monta, and exchange Yi."

Trade UAE?

Zhang Bolong's eyes lit up.

In fact, the UAE is definitely talented and capable. In the Olympic Games in later generations, the Huaxia men's basketball team was carried by one person, which also proved this point.

Being in the same team as myself, I'm not afraid that this strange flower will grow astray.

But after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Bolong still rejected this idea.

In his view, the Warriors are about to produce results next season.

Such a team doesn't have much time to train a rookie unless he can provide good immediate combat power immediately.

But obviously, the current United Arab Emirates can't do it yet.

After sending him a congratulatory text message, the draft quickly moved to the 18th pick.

"Are you sure it's him?" Mullin asked.

"Although there are still some alternatives, it is not a big problem to choose him."

For this pick, Zhang Bolong also considered CBA star Wilson Chandler and Spanish trapezeman Rudy Fernandez.

But in the end, the first pick of the Warriors still chose the marksman Belinelli from Italy!

After Richardson and Azu left, the Warriors' shooting guards seemed a little weak, especially when Ellis often played point guards as guest guards. It is obviously not enough for Bell to have a full-size second position.

After a detailed understanding of the scouting report, making this choice is a matter of course.

In addition to his well-known long-range shooting accuracy, Belinelli also has excellent field vision and can be regarded as a good passer.

But what really moved Zhang Bolong's heart was his enthusiasm.

He is usually the player who runs the most on the field. He never spares physical strength, even injuries, and dares to fight.

Such a person can definitely seamlessly connect with the gangster temperament!
