Chapter 921: Who Was Robbed? 2009 NBA Draft!
Curry is in the dark.
After the circle, Curry walked to the front desk like a walking corpse and shook hands with David Stern.
Seeing this NCAA No. 1 star like this, David Stern couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
To be reasonable, he only read four names in this year's draft.
But apart from Griffin, the other three names surprised him very much.
In the assessment of most media pundits across the country, Evans should not be second, and Gerard Henderson should not be third.
However, this year's draft is a little special.
Except for Griffin, the other rookies have average hard talents, and it can be said that the people who choose other than Griffin are gamblers.
Since it's a gamble, it's not a surprise to anyone other than Griffin in the draft.
Even the young man named Tabit, because of his long hands and feet, was fired to the sky by many people who wanted to use him to rob the supersonics, and even in the period before the draft, he had the momentum of the leader.
In this year's draft, the water is really quite muddy.
However, seeing Curry's dejected appearance, David Stern's eyes narrowed slightly.
The NBA is based in New York, and he's certainly heard something about the New York Knicks.
Seriously, he always thought that the NCAA's No. 1 star was going to spend time in New York, but he didn't expect it......
Who makes ......
Ahem, the draft is still going on, and we'll talk about that later.
Curry was upset when he came off the stage, visibly unhappy, and Klay and Spencer Hayys sat down at the table next to him to comfort him.
Everyone knows that Curry wants to go to New York.
New York is also very eager for him, the two are a natural pair, but they were separated by the goblin Walker.
It's not just that Curry is in the dark at this time.
The Pacers' monster turned out to be a monster that also made Isaiah Thomas and Curry's parents, who are now in the hotel ready to celebrate, dumbfounded.
The Nima's Curry New York Knicks jersey is ready, just wait for Curry to finish the interview and come out of Madison Square Garden to put it on.
Curry looks 100% cooked.
Now Nima's flies?!
Curry's family and the top management of the New York Knicks are quite embarrassed.
I just said a lot of things that everyone is already a family, what now?
Are we still a family now?
Of course not!
What used to be a very cheerful and harmonious hotel has completely changed in an instant.
There's no way to go on with the New York Knicks' celebration of Curry.
And Curry, who was at the draft site, quickly adjusted his mentality after being sluggish, confused and uncomfortable.
"The Pacers are not bad, Granger is a fan of the master and a good disciple, Roy Hibbert's big man is also very strong, and he banned us in the NCAA semifinals last year, if I go to the Pacers, the Pacers will definitely be able to enter the playoffs next season and become a powerhouse in the NBA in one fell swoop!"
"Besides, it's better to go to the Pacers than the hapless guy who goes to the Warriors!"
Curry wanted to continue, but Klay directly covered his mouth, didn't he see that Evans next to him wanted to hit someone?
"Ahem, Stephen, the Golden State Warriors are a great place to be."
Klay Thompson is not a compliment, as a native of California, Klay's first choice is, of course, the 12th pick to be selected by the Clippers.
In fact, the Clippers have been in contact with Klay as well.
It's just that Klay is not as 'arrogant' as Curry, so he has been silent.
And his current draft prediction is indeed the twelfth pick to be selected by the Clippers.
But if he misses the first choice, he is indeed more willing to go to the Warriors than other teams.
Golden State is also his hometown.
Curry is an optimistic man by nature, and sorrow comes and goes quickly.
After being beaten by life, Curry started eating melons again.
"In the 2009 NBA draft, the first round, the fifth pick, the Utah Jazz drafted a guard from Spain, Ricky Rubio!"
This is not a surprising result.
"It's well known that Jazz wants this Spaniard."
Curry looked at Rubio's excited and happy look and complained.
After the first three accidents, this one is finally back on track.
Rubio and Jazz have been in love for a long time.
After the Jazz selected Rubio, who had been in their hearts for a long time, Curry looked at David Stern with resentment.
Curry is now very envious of the lucky guy who was selected by the New York Knicks.
"In the 2009 NBA draft, the first round, the sixth pick, the New York Knicks selected a guard from China, Chen Jianghua!"
It turns out that Chen is the lucky one......
Curry secretly complained in his heart.
And for Chen Jianghua, he really doesn't want to be this lucky one......
His projection of draft pick is high, and the list is eye-catching.
But he always knew that his rank was not that high.
There are not so many high-pick teams to contact him, and the team with the highest pick to contact him is the Houston Rockets, and he is more inclined to go to the Rockets to partner with Yao Ming.
New York Knicks ......
Curry and Americans may not know how bad the New York Knicks' reputation in China is......
Fans in China who watch the New York Knicks are watching a group of fools!
People who have pursuits are absolutely unwilling to go to the New York Knicks to be fools.
"Thank you New York and the Knicks for your trust, I won't let you down."
Chen Jianghua's speech was very simple, but it still received huge applause from the New York Knicks fans at the scene.
The predicted favorite fell to sixth and was picked up by the New York Knicks, which is certainly something to be happy about.
Even some New York fans are shouting that no matter how much David Stern has a lot of schemes, the second-best player in the end is still the New York Knicks.
"I didn't expect Andy to be the sixth pick."
"The sixth and first picks, but the lucky picks of Chinese players!"
"Six or six Shun, a good start, I wish Andy a prosperous NBA career!"
In China, in the training team of the 2009 Tianjin Men's Basketball Asian Championships, Sun Yue and Yi Jianlian, as well as Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng, Wang Zhizhi and other Chinese men's basketball players are very excited.
This year's draft has attracted a lot of attention because there are three Chinese players who have qualified for the first round.
After giving a speech on the stage, Chen Jianghua came to the audience and thanked Ye Si again.
"Brother Ye, thank you!"
"Meeting Brother Ye is the greatest luck in my life!"
Very, very sincere, without Brother Ye, he would never be able to have now.
"Luck will not disappoint those who work hard, and continue to work hard in the NBA."
The NBA is a big stage, whether he can succeed on this big stage or not, being able to show his basketball skills on this big stage is the biggest dream of all basketball players.
He believes that he will continue to work hard for his dream.
Seeing Ye Si's encouragement to Chen Jianghua like this, the rookies next to him who wanted to have a relationship with Ye Si looked at Ye Si's eyes, that enthusiasm......
"In the 2009 NBA Draft, the first round, the seventh pick, the Sacramento Kings selected a center from the University of Washington, Spencer Hawes!"
Spencer Hawes, who has been in the top five with a draft pick prediction, was eventually selected by the Kings with the seventh pick, much to Spencer Hawes' slight disappointment.
"Spencer, congratulations, you didn't fall to tenth."
“……”
Being so comforted by Curry, Spencer Hawes couldn't laugh or cry, and his mood was much better.
"yes, it didn't fall to tenth."
The Warriors are a team that many players don't want to do, cursed with the same team.
Spencer Hawes is a Seattle native, he's not a Californian, and he doesn't want to go to the Golden State Warriors.
Although it is not the top five, but fortunately, the seventh pick is actually not low, and it also avoids the Warriors.
"In the 2009 NBA draft, the first round, the eighth pick, the Milwaukee Bucks selected a guard from Roma, Italy, Brandon Jennings!"
As the strongest high school student known as James and Yes, Jennings' later development was somewhat unworthy of the expectations of American public opinion in the past.
As a young man with very high self-confidence and self-awareness, it is clear that he is very dissatisfied with this pick and this team of the Bucks.
After the Bucks failed to rob the Seattle SuperSonics with Tate, they decisively gave up Thabit and chose Jennings.
In fact, apart from other factors, Tabitt's static talent is indeed the first among all rookies in this year, and the Bucks are still very interested.
But Jennings unexpectedly fell to eighth, and it would really be a crime not to choose.
"Master, although Jennings didn't speak, I could see it in his eyes, and his eyes were saying that he would make the whole NBA regret it."
After Curry finished speaking, Yes nodded.
He saw it too.
Let's not talk about the hard talent of this rookie, one after another with a big temper.
"In the 2009 NBA Draft, the first round, the ninth pick, the Toronto Raptors selected DeMar Rozan from the University of Southern California!"
After the Raptors drafted DeRozan away, Curry became excited again.
Because another unlucky guy in today's draft is about to be born.
"In the 2009 NBA Draft, the first round, the tenth pick, the Golden State Warriors selected a guard from the University of Washington, Klay Thompson."
Curry, who was about to laugh at this newly baked unlucky guy, was instantly stunned when he heard that it was Klay.
And Clay was stunned for a moment, and then walked to the stage with a smile.
Not the best, but it's also good!
It's just that at the same time, the look on the faces of the Clippers' uniform team is not so good.
Robbed by the Warriors and Jerry West!
They also expected Klay to be robbed, so they kept trying to trade draft picks, but neither the Kings nor the Pacers refused.
"In the 2009 NBA Draft, the first round, the 11th pick, the Atlanta Hawks selected a guard from Wake Forest, Jeff Teague!"
"In the 2009 NBA Draft, the first round, the twelfth pick, the Los Angeles Clippers selected the inside from the University of Arizona, Jordan Hill!"
The Clippers, who missed Klay, finally chose the inside beast Jordan Hill.
"Master, do the Clippers have a habit of collecting Jordan?"
Two Jordans indeed.
With Jordan Hill, Clippers Nick Young, Westbrook and Jordan Jr., the crazy flow will get even crazier.
"The 2009 NBA Draft, the first round, the thirteenth pick, the Portland Trail Blazers selected the inside from the University of North Carolina, Tyler Hans Bru!"
"The 2009 NBA Draft, the first round, the fourteenth pick, the Houston Rockets selected a center from Connectn, Hasim Tabbit!"
Mutombo II took Mutombo's place after Mutombo announced his retirement.
After the Rockets drafted and the lottery was all used up, Jonny Flynn, Tylawson and Ju Holiday were still sitting in the little green room.
Fortunately, although he has a high reputation in the American basketball world, his high school is Oak Hill High School, and his college is almost the first university, the University of North Carolina, and he is the leader of the two top teams, and his stats and performances are very good, but he is only 1.80 meters.
If the little green house doesn't invite him, the NBA looks down on the high school and college basketball world, but even if he does, he can't be selected in the lottery, he himself knows very well.
He's taller than Barya......
However, fortunately, Zhu Holdi was uncomfortable for a while.
"In the 2009 NBA Draft, the first round, the fifteenth pick, the Philadelphia 76ers selected UCLA guard, Johordi!"
After Zhu Holiday was chosen, Ye Si frowned.
Sure enough, it's really not that easy to pick up leaks.
Not only was Jrue Holiday quickly drafted, but Jonny Flynn was also quickly drafted by the Pistons with the 16th pick.
The 17th pick of the Bulls was selected by Tygibson.
The 18th pick of the Magic team selected a small forward from China, Zhou Peng.
The 19th pick of the Wizards team selected a forward from China, Ding Jinhui.
The 20th pick was taken from the Celtics in the first round, and the Raptors drafted James Johnson.
"In the 2009 NBA Draft, the 21st pick, the Seattle SuperSonics drafted a guard from the University of North Carolina, Tylawson!"
Tylawson, who was sitting comfortably in the small green room and didn't know where he was going to fall, was stunned for a moment.
Supersonic?
Yes?
KD?!
Ignoring the sudden gaze of Tylawon.
Choose Tylawson, which is indeed Durant's recommendation.
Tylawson and Durant are also childhood sweethearts.
"Master, can't you make me happier a little more, I thought Tylawson was the same as Jordan last year."
Ye Si glanced at Curry, although the supersonic did not pick up the leak, but also selected the target he wanted to choose.
So next you can watch the show with the heartless Curry.
And after watching it for a while, the finale is really starting!
"In the 2009 NBA draft, the first round, the 28th pick, the Golden State Warriors selected a forward from the University of Washington, Dream Green!"
Dream Green became the last of the Washington Five Tigers to be drafted.
Both Curry and Thompson Spencer were relieved to see Green drafted.
It's just that soon, the three of them were blinded.
"Big deal!"
"Golden State Warriors, Oklahoma City Thunder, Indiana Pacers, Sacramento Kings four-way deal!"
"The Pacers sent Curry, the Golden State Warriors sent Griffin, the Thunder sent Evans and David West, and the Kings sent Spencer Hawes!"
In the little green house, Curry was stunned.
The other lottery rookies laughed wildly.
Laughed at us for most of the day, you're the unluckiest one!
Yass withdrew his gaze from the young men.
With a puzzled face, he even felt that this transaction was fake news for the first time.
Is this Jerry West robbing the Thunder?
How do I look like Thunder is robbing the Warriors?
Yace never thought Jerry West would be as vicious as Danny Angie and Pat Riley.
But......
The Pacers traded Curry and TJ Ford to junk contracts for All-Star caliber power forward David West and the Thunder's 2010 first-round pick.
The Thunder sent David West, Evans, a 2010 first-round pick, a 2012 first-round pick, a 2014 first-round pick, a 2016 first-round pick, and got Griffin, Spencer Hawes and the Pacers to junk contracts.
The Kings sent away Hawes and the 2010 second-round pick to get Evans.
The Warriors sent away Griffin and got Curry and the Thunder's 2012, 2014, and 2016 first-round picks.
Looking at the content of this transaction, how does Ye Si feel like the Thunder robbed the Warriors?!
Not to mention Yes, the Griffin on one side is all blind.
Is this Nima the robbery I've been afraid of for months?
Can this robbery be more ferocious?
With his Thunder wants a hairy West, but the Thunder's center was blown up last season after Chandler left, okay!
Now the two unwanted chips David West and Evans have been exchanged for him and the much-needed super potential center Spencer Hawes, which Nima was robbed, it is simply with the help of Grandpa Jerry West, the Thunder directly completed the rebuild, okay!
As for the bunch of first-round picks, whoever wants to take it, the Thunder with him and Paul and Spencer will rule the NBA for the next ten years!
Those first-round picks are worthless to them!
Grandpa West, can you rob the Thunder again?!
Griffin felt that although his brain was not developed, he could also feel the breath of a living bodhisattva from Jerry West's body!
Griffin now wanted to kneel on Jerry West's lap and hug Jerry West's thighs and beg for a robbery.
And Indiana's Larry Bird was satisfied.
The most important power forward for the Pacers rebuild has been found, and it's great to trade a first-round pick for a much-needed All-Star power forward and a first-round pick.
Doing business with Jerry West is a pleasure.
And Sacramento, the king's uniform team is also very satisfied, they are crazy for Evans, but it is useless to be hungry for the No. 7 pick.
Now that a Spencer plus a second-round pick can be traded to Evans, they really want to kneel and beg Jerry West to trade them again.
It is also rare for the management of the begging team to take themselves to trade.
And the Golden State ......
"Mr. West, are we too merciful?"
"Isn't it nice that we could only get Curry for that pick, but now we have not only Curry but also three future first-round picks?"
"And ......"
Just as Jerry West was about to say something, the phone in the Warriors' general manager's office rang wildly.
After answering these calls, the people in the Warrior uniform team were stunned.
A bunch of thanks, a bunch of begging, the Thunder King even said it directly, and in the future, whenever there is a need, say it directly, don't say that he looks down on them.
"Mr. West......"
The Warriors' uniform team really hasn't seen such a scene after a trade.
"Some benefits are not in the present, and the future may be more than the present."
Fishing is a big taboo.
Jerry West smiled and shook his head at the thought of the current embarrassment of Pat Riley and Danny Angie.
They are so smart, they actually understand the truth.
But people's greed can be controlled too little and too little.
Curry, Thompson, Green......
You get everything you want, and that's enough.
In order to satisfy their greed, no matter how much extra chips they get, in the end, these so-called gains and chips will only become a burden in the future.
The NBA has never been a one-shot deal.
If you are willing to give up, how can you get it if you can't give it up......
The 2009 draft is over.
Griffin, Evans and the other rookies who left were all smiling on their faces, whether they got their wish or not.
Curry brought them so much joy tonight.
And Curry, when he left, it was really devastated and devastation.
"Stephen, if you want to drive some, you go to the Warriors alone, it's indeed an unlucky choice, but when we go together, it's different."
"It's not the same when we go together......"
Listening to Clay's reassuring words, Curry nodded with a wry smile.
That's true.
But......
The Warriors are not the same as the University of Washington, it's Beasley's territory!
His style of play, tsk, will be beaten, right?
You're going to get beaten, right?!
His style of play needs to be tolerated by his teammates, the team and the coach.
Clay doesn't care about them, he's different.
Jerry West, Beasley, Mark Jackson, will they tolerate everything about him like Master Romar?
Fortunately, Beasley is a famous sage, and the master is second.
Even if you think about it, you won't be too ruthless......
The future is dark......
Seeing that Curry had a feeling that he was going to be played bad in the future at this time, Yes smiled and shook his head.
Curry is so eager to go to the Knicks, and in addition to the city, Curry knows that his style of play needs a team that has no roots and is completely dominated by him.
The New York Knicks are such a team.
Except for the Knicks, most teams in the league, no matter how weak they are, have an original core, or even more than one.
Curry doesn't want to fight people, and he certainly doesn't want to be beaten.
But......
Thinking of Jerry West's gathering of Green, Thompson, and Curry, Yes's eyes narrowed slightly.
Jerry West's picture is huge......
Of course, Jerry West's plot has nothing to do with him now.
Now, he and the SuperSonics have completed the draft task perfectly.
Tylawson was selected with the 21st pick in the first round.
The 51st pick in the second round was selected by Danny Green, who is also from the University of North Carolina.
After the University of North Carolina was beaten by the University of Washington this year, the players' draft picks plummeted.
