The NBA playoffs are still in full swing.

Last year's champion, the Boston Celtics, lost to the Howard-led Magic due to Garnett's injury, and the Magic also went all the way to eliminate James' Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals, and finally reached the Finals, where they met the Lakers.

Wang Xiao knows very well that the Magic are too young, and there is no resistance in the face of the old and spicy Lakers, and the first Finals of Howard's career will end with a bad experience, and he may never have dreamed that this will be the only Finals he has experienced in his career.

How the playoffs are going has nothing to do with the Wizards, but there is one thing that is important to the Wizards in the near future.

The draw ceremony for the draft convention.

This season, the Wizards' record is third in the league and, of course, the last.

The first from the bottom in the East, the third from the bottom in the league, and the record worse than the Wizards, in addition to the Thunder, which folded Oden and only Westbrook was supported independently, there was also the Los Angeles Clippers.

In terms of lottery probability, the Thunder took the lead with a 25% probability of winning the lottery and a 64.2% probability of the top three.

This is followed by the Clippers' 19.9% top-pick probability and 55.8% top-three pick odds.

The third-placed Wizards have a 13.8 percent chance of picking a pick and a 42.6 percent chance of top-three picks.

Basically, if it weren't for the poor character, the top three picks would be able to get one no matter what.

In order to show his new appointment to the new head coach, the Wizards owner specifically asked Wang Xiao to participate in the lottery ceremony.

It was the first time for Wang Xiao to participate in this kind of ceremony, and looking at the lottery box placed on the stage, he felt particularly novel.

After NBA commissioner Stern's speech, the lottery began.

The first to take the stage to draw lots was the Oklahoma City Thunder, which had the lowest record, and it was the son of the Thunder owner who took the stage.

It can be seen that the young man is a little nervous, and under the leadership of his father, he walked all the way to the lottery box, and then after groping in the box for a while, he took out a small ball.

Wang Xiao, who was sitting in the audience, immediately noticed that the child's father's face was a little dark.

Sure enough, after receiving the ball, Stern took a look at it and said, "Congratulations to the Oklahoma City Thunder, who got the third pick." ”

It's actually the third pick.

Wang Xiao was a little happy.

His appearance has changed history, butterfly wings have been stirred, and the Thunder, who has both Durant and Westbrook in another time and space, did not make the playoffs, but their record is not the bottom of the league, and they were able to draw the third pick and chose James. Harden's luck can be said to be quite good.

But in this time and space, because of the injury of the selected champion Oden, the Thunder only had a first-year pick Westbrook, the record of the league's bottom, but I didn't expect it to be the third pick drawn, which is a bit unlucky.

The Clippers, who followed the second lottery on the court, were crazy with joy, and thought that the top pick would be nine out of ten.

But when the results came out, they couldn't laugh anymore.

"Congratulations to the Los Angeles Clippers for getting the second overall pick."

Second in line?

Wang Xiao was stunned.

The third pick of the Thunder made Wang Xiao think that the butterfly effect brought by his crossing was not so big, but the second pick of the Clippers seemed to tell him that this was not the case.

Originally, the '09 No. 1 pick in time and space should have belonged to the Clippers, who used this pick to select the physical Blake. Griffin.

But now, the champion has become the second pick......

Wait a minute~! Wang Xiao suddenly felt that something was not right.

Subconsciously turned his head to look at the side, and the accompanying general manager Grenfield's breathing had begun to become short.

"Wang ......"

He opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Stern had already begun to say, "Now there is a lottery for the representatives of the Washington Wizards." ”

Wang Xiao straightened his clothes and walked calmly to the stands.

While walking, Wang Xiao was thinking about it, is it possible for him to draw the champion lottery directly?

When he walked on stage and put his hand into the lottery box and grabbed a small ball casually and took it out, Wang Xiao couldn't help but be happy.

"Congratulations to the Washington Wizards for getting the No. 1 pick in the 2009 Draft!"

While Stern took the ball in Wang Xiao's hand and said this, his eyes couldn't help but stare at Wang Xiao for a long time.

When Chinese player Yao Ming logged into the NBA and became the top pick in the draft, Stern can say a lot of power, he is very optimistic about the NBA market in China.

But even he never thought that one day there would be a basketball coach from China in the NBA!

He knew what happened two years ago, but he was also angry at the time, because even him, many people thought that Oden's winning the championship was expected, and it would effectively drive the NBA ratings, and Wang Xiao messed up everything.

But now it seems that Wang Xiao's choice is actually correct, and his vision is better than that of the entire NBA......

"Maybe he can really make a world here."

The Wizards were awarded the top pick! The new head coach brings good luck!

After a season-long nightmare, Washington Wizards fans can finally burst out laughing.

Although 09 is not a big year for the draft, it is recognized that there are many potential players, such as the physical Griffin, the talented Terbit, and the draft template is James's Tyreck. Evans, Rubio, the European golden boy who caused a lot of trouble for the U.S. team at the Olympics, and so on......

If the Wizards use this No. 1 pick to select a player with good potential, plus the returning Arenas and the Big Three of Jamison Butler......

A bright and bright future awaits them!

Walking down from the stage with a faint smile on his face, Wang Xiao sat back in his position.

His mind has already begun to think about how to maximize the value of this champion lot......

Soon, his eyes were fixed on the Los Angeles Clippers.

At this time, the Clippers' management faces were ugly, even more ugly than the Thunder's gang.

The Clippers would love to get the No. 1 pick because they want Griffin.

Although his reputation is far less than that of Oden in '07, Griffin is definitely a high-quality interior player in recent years, and there will basically be no good big men in the next two years of drafts, and the other big man, Tabit, is quite good in their opinion, but his playing style is too rigid and not suitable for those who want to urgently attract the attention of fans and transfer them from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Clippers.

"The Wizards aren't going to be interested in Griffin, are they? After all, they have Jamison and Heywood, so there's no need to pick another big man? ”

The Clippers couldn't help but whisper to their companion, but his tone was very uncertain.

Who can guarantee this kind of thing? Wizards power forward Jamison is 31 years old and is about to pass his prime, and he could be traded at any time.

"No! We have to figure out a way to see if we can get it from the Wizards! ”

The Clippers, who made such a decision, didn't know that Wang Xiao, who was not interested in the champion sign, also hit them with the idea.
