(One hundred and eighty) Bath's omission
On June 28, 2005, at Madison Square Garden in New York, the annual draft began. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Knights' new general manager, Danny. Ferry was proud, and kept greeting the familiar faces in the alliance. He was not very old as a manager, having just retired as a player in '03. After two years of management experience with the Spurs, he signed a five-year contract with the Cavaliers the day before, June 27, and officially became a member of the league's top executives.
"Hi, Jason!" He greeted Wang Yuanfei warmly.
Yuanfei pretended not to hear, turned his head in Popovich's direction, and deliberately gestured and said a few words to Dawson. Ferry awkwardly turned away.
"I don't like this guy very much." Far Flying. Ferry was in a slumber during his time with the Cavaliers, and his penchant for bringing in expensive out-of-fashion veterans made the Cavaliers' Gilbert owner invest a lot of money. He later switched to the Eagles, where he was fired for making racist remarks.
Dawson didn't know why, so he could only nod yes.
Another person in the spotlight is Jason. Bass, dressed in a fuchsia suit and holding half a glass of the same fuchsia wine in his hand, looked particularly flamboyant and dazzling. Bas himself is indeed very handsome, and he undoubtedly stands out among a group of middle-aged and elderly people. At this time, he was in the middle of a conversation with Mickey. Kupchak spoke intimately.
"Young Master, everything is arranged according to what you said before."
"Well done!" Bas bowed his head and took a sip of red wine, smiling confidently.
Soon they ushered in Stern's announcement: "The first pick, the Milwaukee Bucks' selection is -- Andrew. Bogut! ”
Bogut was rightly chosen, as the sophomore center averaged 20.4 points, 12.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.8 blocks per game in the NCAA. Yao Ming's huge success in the NBA has also boosted the reputation of foreign centers. Another advantage for Bogut is that despite being Australian, he has been playing in the United States for 2 years and should not have a problem adapting to the NBA.
"It's completely in the young master's expectation!" Kupchak patted the ass.
"That's right, the second-place Bobcat will definitely choose Marvin from North Carolina. Williams. Because North Carolina has played so well in the NCAA this year, these teams at the top of the rankings will definitely not miss it. Buzz said triumphantly.
"The Charlotte Bobcats' selection was -- Chris. Paul! ”
"What !!" Buzz slammed to his feet, the glass in his hand shattered, and he didn't even notice the red wine spilled on his pants.
Kupchak was also a little surprised, though not as exaggerated as Bass. From the information he has, it seems that Paul's draft market should not be stronger than that of two Williams.
"He must be doing something wrong!" Buzz suddenly reacted and stared at Wang Yuanfei viciously. And Yuan Fei happened to look back at this time, his eyes full of smiles.
Wang Yuanfei can't handle other teams, and he can really get the Bobcats. Why? He and Gerald. Wallace is a buddy!
Gerrard. Wallace is a starter in a championship team, and he naturally plays well in a bad team like the Bobcats, and is known as the Bobcats along with Okafor, and is a non-sale player in the eyes of the owner. Naturally, he has a certain amount of weight in his proposals for the team. Wallace also has a good reason, Marvin. Williams is a swingman at the same position as him at the third or fourth position, with overlapping functions and types, while the Bobcats have a weak point guard, and it is imperative to make up a team brain.
Bickerstaff, the Bobcat manager, thought that Wallace had a point. In addition, this master's contract expires and is being negotiated for renewal, so if it is unpleasant, it will be very bad for the team. Although Marvin seems to have great potential, can he actually beat Gerrard. Wallace's level is not easy to say, and it is best to stabilize the players in front of him first. So he, in turn, listened carefully to Wallace's opinion.
That's it, Gerald. Wallace did Yuanfei a big favor and cheated the Lakers hard.
The Lakers, who came in third, chose Delon, a third-year point guard from the University of Illinois. Williams. The point guard is very strong, and he actually pushed 15 times in the bench press of 84 kilograms in the physical test, you must know that even the big center Bogut only pushed 13 times.
This choice is a complete substitute for Paul. DeLong can be said to be the second-best player in this class, but the gap between this second and first is quite obvious. However, Buss thought about it, Delon was very strong in the early stage of his career and only slightly weaker than Paul, although the decline in the later stage was very fast, but the Lakers could sell him before the decline. Thinking about it, Buzz also looked away
The fourth-place Rockets finally selected a player from the North Carolina system, Marvin Brown. Williams joined. The popular candidate, who was predicted to be the top spot by major media, finally fell to fourth place, and Marven looked a little sullen. Joining the Rockets is fiercely competitive, and he is afraid that he will not be able to play.
The fifth-place Hornets selected another player from North Carolina, point guard Raymond. Felton. This year's North Carolina squad is very strong, including 4 players who are known as the North Carolina Four Less, and all four of them are the favorites in the first round.
That's when Buzz didn't feel right. He is sure that Wang Yuanfei is the same person as him, so Wang Yuanfei will not choose Marven who has a mediocre development in the future. What else is this kid doing? He suddenly noticed that although Wang Yuanfei was sitting as steady as Mount Tai, Carol on the side. Dawson's was constantly on the phone.
"This kid, does he have a backhand?" Bas vaguely felt uneasy, he realized that this draft was completely out of control for him, and quickly turned to Kupchak and said, "Give me this rookie roster!" ”
"This ...... I was staring at Paul before, and now I think of grinding my gun? Kupchek sneered.
"Wait, what's going on with this guy?" Bas pointed to a name and suddenly shouted, which was too loud for the people next to him to look sideways.
"This ...... Young master, this player is not good at all, our team has never considered selecting him, not even considering him in the second round. ”
"Nope! Pick him now! Buzz clenched his fists fiercely, "This kid is an accident, you must choose him!" With our next 10 lots! ”
"Young Master, are you crazy?" Kupchak finally couldn't help but question: "This player is already a junior and has limited potential. He's not as strong as DeLong and doesn't have as much potential as Marvin, so if you want a shooting guard, consider the talented high school kid Webster! This guy can only average 12.8 points per game in the NCAA, which is a third-rate commodity at all! You have to hesitate to use the second round of lottery! ”
"I said, I want to choose him!" Buzz turned red with anger and glared at Kupchak viciously. "Gotta pick him!"
Then the media got a shocking piece of news.
The Rockets and Warriors swapped draft picks! The Rockets' fourth-round pick in the first round. Williams was given to the Warriors in exchange for the Warriors' ninth pick in the first round this year and two second-round picks in '05 and '06.
In this way, the Rockets finished with the ninth pick, just ahead of the Lakers' tenth pick.
"It's over!" Buzz hid his face and looked up to the sky and sighed.
The Trail Blazers, who were the sixth pick, chose Webster, who was recommended by Kupchak.
With the seventh pick, the Raptors won power forward "Eyebrowless Man" Villanueva.
With the eighth pick, the Knicks opted for the tall projection interior Channing. Fry.
With the ninth pick, the Rockets chose an inconspicuous upset, a third-year shooting guard from the University of Washington, Brandon. Roy. (To be continued.) )
