"We need an inside lineman."

The general manager of Milwaukee naturally brought the Bucks' thoughts out after getting the No. 1 pick, and as the No. 1 pick recipient, he didn't need to play any PR tricks in front of the media, which was very simple for them...... Choose Andrew Bogut!

Unlike the Milwaukee Bucks, Atlanta are considered the team with the most ambiguous draft attitudes, and everyone knows they need a point guard right now, they are not rich in the point guard position, and this year is another big year for point guard.

But... They've been eye-to-eyeing with Marvin Williams again.

The Eagles' draft style is inscrutable, they are loyal forward collectors, and the current trend is to put a forward who is over six feet seven tall in every position on the court.

The answer from the Utah Jazz, who has the third pick, is clear: "We need a point guard, Chris, Tiger, Delon are all in our plans, and we want them to come to Salt Lake City for tryouts." At the moment our favorite player is Tiger, Coach Sloan has a lot of experience coaching point guards, and Stockton is a relatively thin player, so... None of this will be a problem. ”

Before David Stern pronounces his name, all the statements made by the teams can be understood as routines. There are so many doorways in this... Praising you doesn't necessarily mean really choosing you, and belittling you doesn't necessarily mean really hating you.

"We love Dellon." The New Orleans Hornets, the fourth pick, made it even clearer: "He can be inside and out, and he's going to be the answer to our No. 1 position." ”

"Raymond is going to be our first choice, and we want the team to get a strong point guard." Here's what the Trail Blazers are saying: "We need a No. 1 in our locker room who can take the game, and we hope he can bring the good vibes from the North Carolina locker room to Portland." ”

The Bobcats, who were photographed in the sixth place, were a little depressed, and Michael Jordan began to focus firmly on his alma mater since he picked a few parallel goods, and he hoped that the North Carolina students could fight for themselves.

But now... Raymond was actually favored by the Trail Blazers. This made Michael Jordan hesitate a little: "So is it Chris Paul or Sean May?" ”

The first six teams each made their own noise, but the 10th-placed Lakers were in tears, and they were almost all in a mess at the end of the regular season, thinking they could get a top-five pick, but it turned out to be a 10th pick...... The situation in this year's draft is so clear, who else can be selected at this pick? I can't catch up with the heat.

"We're getting farther and farther away from Tiger." In the general manager's office, Kupchak said to Kobe Bryant with great regret: "Phil has decided to come back, and he would prefer to get that New Jersey kid." You have to know that he is Jenny's boyfriend. ”

There are factions within any team, and Phil Jackson's willingness to return to the Lakers now is actually a compromise with Kobe Bryant. Phil Jackson also left last summer after Shak O'Neal left, and now he is back with the Lakers, which means that he has recognized the fact that Kobe Bryant has become the leader of the Lakers, although he has been inclined to keep Shak O'Neal and trade Kobe Bryant until then.

It stands to reason that when the godfather of the dynasty makes such a gesture, Kobe Bryant should also respond accordingly, at least no longer raise the bar with him openly.

But...

"I really want to get Tiger." This is the third time Kobe Bryant has said this, even though he has only walked into the office for less than half an hour.

"The current situation is... Atlanta and Utah have both rejected our trade requests, and they have not had a friendly relationship with us in the club's history. Portland said he wasn't going to have any substantive negotiations with us unless we sent Lamar Odom over, but you know... Lamar is very important in Phil's system, and he is Phil's handpicked Pippen No. 2. ”

"There's at least 10,000 Grant Hill between him and Pippen." Kobe Bryant complained angrily, although Lamar is a good guy and never messes in the locker room, but... He's really not aggressive, and a lot of the time on the pitch he doesn't know what he's doing.

"That's not the point, the point is that we can't veto all of Phil's proposals, it will exacerbate the contradictions between them." Kupchak is still on Kobe Bryant's side.

"And what about the Wasp? They have the fourth overall pick. ”

'They didn't give a clear response and I think there are other teams that are in contact with them. Right now... Many teams including Chicago Bulls, Phoenix Suns... It's all on the trade, and this year is considered a super year for point guards, and no team wants to miss out on that piece of the pie. ”

"Is there a way to get Tiger to move to the tenth pick?" Kobe Bryant said helplessly.

"Unless the draft process is completely disrupted, it's like a bull rushing onto the highway and crushing all the teams' draft plans." Kupchak said self-deprecatingly: "But, you know that not every year of the draft is going to be like '98. ”

The '98 draft was indeed a chaotic one, and the Clippers disrupted all the team's plans with a shocking first-round pick, successfully avoiding players such as Mike Bibby, Anthony Jamison, Vince Carter, Paul Pearce, Dirk Nowitzki, Larry Hughes, Bundy Wells, and selected Michael Olowokandi.

It turned out that they succeeded in creating a parallel product, but at the time they did throw the draft into chaos, and then... Players like Paul Pierce, who booked a top-three pick before the draft and could even win the top pick, dropped to the 10th pick.

Now, unless Milwaukee chooses someone they have never heard of as the champion, thus disrupting the battle plans of all teams. Otherwise, the chances of the Lakers selecting Zhou Zheng with the 10th pick are zero.

"So can we hype up Andrew Bynum? Make him the third high school student in a row? "Kobe Bryant is willing to give this option a try...... There was nothing wrong with using that New Jersey high school student as a bull to catch the highway on the highway.

"Are you crazy?" When Kupchak heard this, he felt that Kobe's head was simply funny: "You will completely anger Phil and Jenny like this." Moreover, the feasibility of this poison pill plan is infinitely tending to zero. Milwaukee is not an idiot, and Bogut may have a stinky mouth, but he is indeed the strongest center at the moment. And... We're exposing Andrew Bynum, what if another team picks up? He's only seventeen years old, and some teams are willing to make a bet on him. ”

Kobe Bryant was silent, for a long time, and added: "I just want Tiger to appear in the Lakers' No. 1 position." ”

In the end, there was no consensus in this conversation, because the probability of getting Zhou Zheng was too low, and there was almost no room for operation.

Before Kobe Bryant left Kupchak's office, he already knew that Stanford's Little Tiger was getting farther and farther away from the Los Angeles Lakers, and that he might go to Salt Lake City, maybe Atlanta, maybe New Orleans, and the only thing that wasn't possible was to stay in California.

"It would have been nice if Stanford hadn't made it to the finals."

Kobe Bryant shook his head helplessly.

At this time, Zhou Zheng had a very happy conversation in a club in Hangzhou, and he sat at the same table with the founding team of Aliba Bar, and they were very harmonious.

They have just reached a $100 million partnership, and Zhou Zheng has received 22 percent of the equity of the company, and Zhou Zheng has become the company's largest individual shareholder.

And it is worth mentioning that Zhou Zheng took the initiative to lock up this part of the shares, which cannot be traded or transferred within ten years.

Ariba is very surprised, generally speaking, investors tend to get rid of it as soon as possible, make a quick amount of money and leave, even if they don't leave, they will not propose to lock up the equity.

"I am optimistic about the development of this company, and I think that in ten years, everyone here will become a billionaire." Zhou Zheng said confidently: "I'm talking about US dollars." ”

"Cheers!!"
