Chapter 270: The Value of Draft Picks Soars (Crotch League Title 5)
Due to the 20-25 age limit, if you are unlucky, even if Richard gives birth to a son in the future, you may not be able to use it......
Most likely, it was passed on to his grandson......
It is not impossible to pass it on to great-grandchildren.
This super giant suit is really too against the sky, if you really want to collect it, the effect is much more powerful than the anti-heaven life-changing pill.
This kind of thing, Richard is really reluctant to give it to outsiders, and he will definitely keep it for his own heirs.
Moreover, there are really few newcomers who have emerged after more than 20 years, and there are really few Richard who can look at them......
……
The All-Star weekend has come to an end, and Richard and the West Lafayette players can be said to have gained a lot.
Iverson shared the All-Star MVP honor with Jordan and officially launched his career as a star.
Judging from the current situation, Iverson's future development may be better than normal, as for how good it is and whether it can make up for those regrets, no one knows......
Richard didn't know either, and the only thing he could do was to take Iverson down the right path as much as he could.
If one day, Iverson really can't get along in the league like he did in his previous life, Richard will definitely lend a hand......
As for Kobe Bryant and Xiao Ao, this All-Star has played quite dazzling statistics and attracted the attention of a large number of fans for themselves.
These two, like Iverson, can be regarded as officially starting their star careers!
Kobe Bryant said that under normal circumstances, he would be an All-Star this season, and he was a starter......
The key is Xiao Ao, the time it took him to start his star career is much earlier than normal, Richard is quite satisfied with this, and his appearance has saved Xiao Ao a lot of time to grow!
……
After the All-Star break, the NBA regular season schedule has been played by two-thirds.
With a week to go until the trade market closes, many teams will be trading in the coming week to try to make their teams go a little further in the playoffs......
As for the belly teams, they don't care, they may also consider the right trade offer, plan for the future season, and if they don't have the right one, forget it......
What stunned all teams in the league was that at this point in time, the Pacers suddenly broke out in a trade.
Instead of trading the players on their current team, they traded future draft picks for next season's draft picks!
The Pacers traded a 1999 plus 2001 first-round pick in exchange for a Detroit Pistons first-round pick for next season......
In addition, they bought a second-round pick for next season with cash.
Larry Bird's operation directly made the teams incomprehensible, it stands to reason that the Pacers are now in this record, shouldn't they bring in reinforcements and then go to wrestle with the Bulls?
Why did you suddenly get two draft picks? It doesn't make sense at all......
Are they counting on four draft picks next season, casting a wide net and picking a super-rookie?
The odds are so low that the Pacers will lose their money if they're not careful, and with the Pacers missing two first-round picks in the next few years, they will lose their future if the draft results don't work out.
……
On February 23, the doors of the trading market were officially closed.
Jordan breathed a sigh of relief that what he feared hadn't happened, that Richard hadn't done anything like that.
Now that Jordan thinks about it, it seems that his worries are superfluous, after all, now that the Trail Blazers are ranked first in the West, they must also want to win the championship, and it is impossible to loan their pillar players to the Pacers, isn't that a fool......
Thinking of the subtle "cooperation" between Larry Bird and Richard in the All-Star Game, Jordan seemed to understand something for a while.
There are two kinds of smart people, one is that they know it but don't say anything, and the other is that they like to talk about it after they know it......
Apparently Jordan is the second type!
"I can guarantee that next year's draft will definitely be a big year!"
"Just look at the teams of Richard and Larry Bird, the two old foxes, no, Richard is the little foxes......"
"The Trail Blazers have five draft picks, the Pacers have four! That's enough to say the ......"
"I even guess that the size of the draft in '98 will not be worse than that in '96!"
Jordan said the above directly when he was interviewed by reporters......
He can't say that he has any purpose, he just wants to stir up and stir up, anyway, whether he will play next season or not is a matter of two words.
When Jordan's speech was reported, many teams regretted it, and they kept ignoring one thing.
That's those five picks in Richard's hands!
The 97th draft has long ended, and now it's a mule or a horse, and you can almost tell.
In this draft, the quality of the players is actually okay, anyway, it can't be said to be bad, after all, there are newcomers like Duncan and Dazhi who are very popular.
However, the key is that the number is small, and many teams have selected "garbage" newcomers in the high order.
Everyone now understands why Richard didn't make a move in this draft, but instead swapped the picks for the '98 picks!
Dare to love is that Richard has already seen all this......
This treacherous guy has already seen that 97 is not worth selling, and has hoarded a lot of 98 draft picks, just waiting for the 98 draft to start!
Coupled with the Pacers' crazy hoarding of draft picks, considering the relationship between Larry Bird and Richard, it is really possible that Richard and Larry Bird passed the gas!
In this case, the teams went crazy......
Those teams that haven't been sold yet, now everyone is happy!
And those teams that have sold their draft picks are angry and slapped on the thighs......
Although the door to the trade market is closed, if the draft picks are negotiated, they can still be "traded" as usual, but only verbal promises.
But in this situation, which team will sell draft picks unless they are crazy.
Richard selected All-Star starter Jermaine O'Neal with the seventeenth pick......
What if this kind of shit luck happens to them? They wake up laughing when they dream!
For a while, the value of draft picks skyrocketed, and even if it was a second-round pick, each team was treated like a baby......
After all, in the second round, Richard also selected a super blue-collar like Big Ben!
Larry Bird laughed like crazy, fortunately he started early, hoarded some draft picks, and fortunately he bit his mouth and didn't reveal it to Jordan, otherwise, how could there be so many draft picks on the Pacers now.
