Then the Miami Heat got the No. 5 pick, and with Alonzo Mourning's injury, their record last year was really bad.

The draw ceremony finally ended after two hours.

All teams were largely satisfied with their results, with the exception of the Memphis Grizzlies and Denver Nuggets, who not only did they lose their lottery picks, but they also had to go home and be questioned by the fans.

"Damn! What was that idiot who agreed to such an idiotic deal in the first place?" until George Carr, the head coach of the Nuggets who left the venue of the lottery ceremony, was still full of entanglement, vowing to find out the idiot in his mouth.

After the lottery ceremony, it was time for the rookie training camp to begin, and those young people who were ready to step into the NBA gathered in New York to start the first step of their journey.

Some of them have attracted the attention of the world from the beginning, such as young talents such as Anthony and James. And for some, bootcamp is just the beginning of letting the world know about them.

The Knicks, who are in New York, are naturally close to the water and can observe all the rookies nearby.

Of course, the Knicks, who hold the flower sign, have naturally become the object of yearning for many rookies. In addition, the Knicks are already strong, and this season is also determined to win the championship.

If he can be drafted by the Knicks as the top pick, he will most likely taste the championship in his rookie season. You must know that even Jordan, the god of basketball, has been working hard for a championship ring for several years.

The rookies are enthusiastic about the Knicks, but the Knicks have been a little slow to show their enthusiasm. Obviously, under Lamar's golden god, the Knicks have almost locked in the rookie they want.

Lamar had the idea to ask the Knicks to add draft picks to his trade, and now it's time for a bumper harvest. Now it seems that this scout lottery is really a send-off for the Knicks.

Although the Knicks are strong enough, the departure of Alan Houston has inevitably left the Knicks' guard line with holes. Although Grant Hill is strong, no one can guarantee his injury!

Lamar doesn't think that the Knicks' team doctor can compare to the level of the Suns' team doctor in the future, and Hill is not born as a shooting guard, although Salmons is not bad, but the ceiling is placed on the bench of the weak team's starting and strong teams.

Lamar and Van Gundy watched every rookie on the court tryout, and they couldn't help but think about the Knicks' current roster configuration.

In the center position, Haitian Samuel Dampot is definitely the main force that the Knicks can't beat in the next decade. Lamar believes that Howard, the No. 1 center, who has proven to be seriously overrated in history, will not be much better defensively than Dampoter. Besides, the Haitians' current free throws can definitely throw off the monster a few streets! Coupled with the already signed Birdman Anderson and the 'Wind Chasing Boy' Wang Zhizhi, although the offense is a little unsatisfactory, the defense will definitely become a nightmare for NBA teams!

In the position of power forward, Lamar is needless to say, the absolute king of this position! Even rookie Nejlario showed a certain ability to dominate the basket last season. Antonio Davis is also getting stronger and stronger, and his performance last season was decent.

In the small forward position, the main Sean Battier has improved rapidly in the past two seasons, and if it weren't for the slightly monotonous offensive means, he would definitely have the strength to become an All-Star level player with his high ball quotient. Of course, in terms of defense, even the league's famous defensive titan is not necessarily much better than Sean Battier. In addition, although Grant Hill continues to be injured, there is no problem at all for him to lead the Knicks' bench.

Shooting guard is the Knicks' weakest link right now. The departure of Alan Houston has greatly damaged the Knicks' strength in this position. John Salmons is constrained by his talent, and although the general Arenas is outstanding, he suffered a big loss in height when he was born to play point guard.

In terms of point guards, Chauncey Billups is definitely trustworthy, he is not flashy but very practical, and he has a big heart when it matters most. The strength of the general Arenas has also been recognized, and a player with such a personality is the focus of attention wherever he goes. Although Mark Jackson is nearly 40 years old, Lamar, who is familiar with the future history, will never give up such an intelligent player who can become the head coach of the team.

After such an analysis, Devin Wade is definitely the only option for the Knicks. Carmelo Anthony, who has a longer career peak in the future, is very attractive to Lamar, but such a player is really not what the Knicks are looking for. Although Lamar also covets LeBron James, he has never considered that Lamar's style of play has too many similarities with Lamar, and LeBron will definitely not fall to the third place.

So when Jeff Van Gundy asked Lamar again for his opinion on the draft, Lamar changed his attitude and told Van Gundy what he thought. Lamar's 180-degree transformation made Jeff Van Gundy a little confused.

After thinking about it, Jeff Van Gundy finally decided to follow Lamar's advice, abandon his favored Anthony, and make Devin Wade a key target to observe.

In the rookie training camp, Anthony obviously received the most attention. In an environment where great swing forwards dominate the league, it's clear that a young talent like Anthony could easily be seen as a great savior.

Unlike Anthony's star-level treatment, Devon Wade, who is favored by Lamar and will surpass Anthony in the future, has obviously received much less attention.

Compared to LeBron James, who is physically gifted and perverted, and Carmelo Anthony, who is famous in the NCAA, Devin Wade, who is not very good in height and shooting, is of course overshadowed by the former's brilliance.

In the face of the indifference of many team general managers, Devin Wade at this stage can only choose to lie dormant. Beside draft favorites LeBron and Anthony, his star was almost completely obscured.

Compared with Anthony's flamboyance, LeBron James, another popular elective, is much more low-key! As a high school student, he does live up to expectations, he has always been the hardest working one in the training camp, and he does not have the stinking problem of those young and famous geniuses, but he seems very low-key. Not only did he train hard, but he also performed very well, playing 20+5+5 in the rookie training matches many times, and the starlight almost overshadowed everyone else.

Looking at such a brilliant player, Jeff Van Gundy was almost crazy with excitement. He even wants to take LeBron James out of his account right now and let him play for himself. In his vision, if James can come to the Knicks and Lamar to form a front line, it will almost be a foregone conclusion that the entire league will be swept away.

Jeff Van Gundy began to go crazy for James, but Lamar's eyes were obviously not on this young and old bitter gourd face, and it was Devon Wade who was a little baby face that attracted him more.

Overall, Devin Wade was also very good in rookie camp, but his relatively short body was a bit inconspicuous among the black strong men.

Lamar watched Wade's every move, constantly finding out the shortcomings that Wade needed to make up for the most at this stage. In order to withstand the test of the NBA, Wade's most urgent thing to do right now is to make his shooting a little more reliable.

At present, there are not many guards in the league who are good at breaking through, but there are not many scoring guards who are good at breaking through, can pass the ball, and have a stable mid-range shot.

The current Knicks obviously have no shortage of good players to break through, and what the Knicks urgently need now is a scoring guard who can break through and open up space for Lamar to shoot from the outside. Obviously, Wade has more than enough breakthroughs and is short of long-range shots, and the technical shortcomings after joining the Knicks must be made up for immediately.

After the last draw ceremony, the AI told Lamar that he would seriously consider Lamar's suggestion. Lamar knows that Josh Howard, the famous ugly monster in history, has entered the vision of the Philadelphia 76ers. Now Lamar doesn't mind causing a little trouble for Marx Kuban, who told Lamar that the breath in this guy's big mouth smoked Lamar.

"Good shot!"

Jeff Van Gundy next to him suddenly roared, looking more like a fan than a fan. Lamar looked across the court and saw that it was Anthony who completed a slam dunk, and he squeezed out Devin Wade, who Lamar was favorite.

Anthony's huge body is obviously not something that Devin Wade can compete with, and Anthony's offensive skills are unusually comprehensive compared to these rookies on the court.

"Hey, Lamar! Anthony is so good, I'm going to bring him to New York anyway. Jeff Van Gundy shouted excitedly, oblivious to the nervous gazes of the team managers around him.

"Jeff, calm down! We can't make a decision so quickly yet, so it's better to take a look. Do you want to make the mistake of the Portlanders? Maybe there's a Jordan hidden among these young people! Besides, we're not the top picks! Aren't you afraid of being cut off?"

Lamar's reminder startled Jeff Van Gundy, who apparently had thought of the possibility as well. But that possibility was soon dispelled by James' continued succession of brilliant performances.

"This guy's future achievements will definitely reach the heights of Scott Pippen. Even if Jordan is hidden in it, as long as we have Pippen, it's not a pity, is it?"
