Chapter 614: Senseless Struggle?
The Heat's winning of the No. 1 pick is a bit silent under the clouds of the battle between the supersonic and the upcoming Rockets.
But for the Seattle SuperSonics themselves, the 2008 NBA Draft pick was still important.
Because......
"Regarding the 2008 NBA Draft, we SuperSonics shouldn't be absent, there are a lot of great young players in this year's rookie who can be very competitive for our team in the future, and there were a lot of surprises in this year's draft draw, of course, everyone knows that it must have been an accident made by David Stern, but those accidents gave us a chance."
After the NBA draft lottery ended, at the team's internal meeting, the team's general manager, Presti, made it clear.
He is optimistic about the 2008 NBA rookie.
He wants to get some young players from these rookies that can be used by the superSonics.
In fact, some of Presti's goals are no secret to all of you.
Of course, Presti is definitely keeping it a secret.
But for all of you, there is no need for it.
In this year's 2008 NBA Draft, the Seattle SuperSonics only had a 28th pick in the first round, and according to Presti, he is ready to trade a 20-plus or even lotto-level pick.
Lottery picks are valuable in the NBA, especially in a big year like 2008.
It's usually hard to trade, but there have been some surprises this year, with David Stern going crazy in this year's draft to hit the teams in the East that are messing around.
In addition to the Heat winning the first spot, this year's list was given to the Mavericks, the team with the best record in the lottery area, Tanhua was given to the Clippers, and even the fourth place was not an Eastern team, but the Golden State Warriors.
The second-to-last, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth-place Eastern teams in the league only earned guaranteed fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth picks.
The world knows this year that the three best rookies are Rose, Beasley and Mayo, followed by Westbrook, Kevin Love and Afflalo, the three UCLA triumvirates.
Rose and Beasleymeo are future MVP-caliber players who can make it to All-Star with their eyes closed.
Westbrook and Kevin Love, along with Afflalo, are potential All-Star potential rookies.
But in addition to these six, the other people, the gambling is quite huge.
So this year's draft picks, the most precious are the top three, and the value is about the same, depending on who you need from Rose, Mayo and Beasley.
For the Bulls, Rose is certainly the best choice, and for Rose, the Bulls can go bankrupt.
In addition to the top three, the UCLA three heroes are also good and can become the cornerstone of team building.
Therefore, the top six picks in this year's draft are the best, and it is impossible to get them by trading north, but the rest, which is average, can be traded.
Presti has her eye on these lotto picks that can be traded.
If it were a small year in previous years' draft, it wouldn't be easy to select players with championship puzzle ability among these tradable lottery picks.
But in a draft year like this year, it's different.
Aside from those six, it's really hard to be the core of a team, and it's a bit of a frustration for those teams that are rebuilding, but these people have the potential to be very good role players for a championship team or a strong team in the future.
For the Seattle SuperSonics, the Seattle SuperSonics don't need a core to build a team.
Presti has a clear idea of what to do with this year's draft, and Yees and Nelson Sr. have no objections to his plans.
With the draft draw complete, Presti as general manager began perhaps his busiest job of the year.
And for Yes, he is also carrying out a very important and busy work right now.

In the cafeteria of the supersonic training hall, Ye Si was piled up with food, potatoes, beef, mutton, as well as a variety of flavored yogurts and various dairy soy products.
Ye Si was holding a leg of lamb in one hand and a can of flavored yogurt in the other, while Ye Si's eyes kept slanting as if he was looking at something.
Yes is now of course looking at his giant star system.
After almost half a month of his efforts, he successfully disappeared the 'weightlessness' state that he had carried on his body for an unknown number of years.
To be precise, after the seventh game against the Nuggets, his weightlessness disappeared.
With the kind of defense the Suns do against him, speed doesn't work so much for him anymore.
So he's been gaining weight since the game against the Nuggets.
After consuming a lot of food and calories every day and doing a lot of exercise every day, I successfully gained almost 7 kilograms in half a month.
It's quite hard work.
For humans, whether it is losing weight or gaining weight, it is not so simple.
Losing weight is not easy because it is not easy to lose weight.
Gaining weight is not simple, it is simple to accumulate fat, which is not very good.
Fortunately, Ye Si has a superstar system, and the superstar system has various status prompts, if you eat too much, the system will prompt that you can't eat anymore, and if you exercise too much, the system will also prompt that you can't exercise anymore.
So Ye Si's fattening plan is not known to be many times easier than others.
However, even with the help of the superstar system, Ye Si did not achieve the goal he wanted under the crazy efforts of the past half month.
Of course, Yes's recent crazy weight gain is not just to practice weightlessness.
Weightlessness: Increases explosiveness by 10%, speed by 10%, and strength by 10%
This is a very useful state for Yes in the early stages.
At a time when young players are not very focused on strength and are playing with athleticism and talent, this form has played a big role in Yess sweeping the NCAA and grabbing the top pick.
But when it comes to this state, the game against the Rockets is a bit of a chicken rib.
As far as the Rockets' chain defense system with Yao Ming, Gerard Wallace, Maddy, Artest, Roy, and Ariza as the core, speed is of no use in front of this system.
No matter how many chances Yes uses his speed to run, there will always be defenders around him, and no matter which defender Yes breaks through, the next defender is in front of him.
In the series between the Rockets and the Thunder, Paul is willing to stand alone with Roy? Would Paul rather stand alone with Maddie? Would Paul rather stand alone with Artest? Would Paul rather stand alone with Ariza?
This chain defense system of the Rockets gives the opponent the best offensive opportunity, which is to play alone!
In the face of a defense like the Rockets, Randolph's style of play is the simplest and most effective.
Of course, Yace didn't see Randolph kill in front of the Rockets when he decided to gain weight, but he did see Chris Paul's embarrassment.
He doesn't want to be the next Paul, the next Kobe, and he needs to hammer through this pack of wolf tactics that the head coach of the Rockets, Adelman, said was just for him.
So, he needs weight!
Not only does he need to get rid of weightlessness, he also needs to get out of his overweight state again!
After Ye Si got the system, the state of carrying it on his back for the longest time was weightlessness, but before the age of three, when Ye Si was still chubby, he was always overweight.
Overweight: Increases Strength by 20%, Explosiveness by 10%, Speed by 10%
If weightlessness is an overall positive state, only reducing the force by 10%, but increasing the double speed by 10% each, the total amount is increased by 10%.
And being overweight is a state of neither adding nor subtracting.
A 20% power boost and a 10% drop in dual speed can be said to be an equivalent exchange.
However, for Yes, he is comfortable with losing 10% of his speed and acceleration after getting a 20% power bonus, as he also has John Volka, who can maintain a minimum of 80 dual speed when he needs it.
With a double speed of 80, combined with his game experience, this speed will not make him a soft underbelly on the defensive end.
Conversely, if he does get a 20% Strength bonus, his final Strength bonus will be 96!
The power of 96, combined with his weight at that time, and the fact that he is now above 90 in the mid-range, long-range shooting and three-point shooting, the damage he inflicted on the Rockets will definitely not be below Randolph!
Of course, the defensive players on the Rockets' flanks are also much stronger than the No. 4 position.
Overall, though, as long as he completes this weight gain, the probability that he and his team will beat the Rockets is definitely more than 1% or 2%.
2% is the probability given by ESPN, 100 experts, 98 think that the rocket can win, and 2 absolute supersonic can win.
If it weren't for the fact that supersonic speed had just swept the sun, not even this 2%.
That wolf-pack tactic that the Rockets came up with in the playoffs is a nightmare for all outside offensive players in the league.
Kobe Bryant has fallen, who can withstand Artest, Maddy, Roy and Ariza on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends?
Yes may be better than Kobe Bryant under such a hard hammer, but where did the SuperSonics find a Laker's Zach Randolph?
Zach Randolph's strength and singles skills are not something that anyone but Yes can possess in hypersound.
The Seattle SuperSonics swept the Suns, the Seattle SuperSonics restrained the Suns, but the Rockets restrained all of these outside supergiants.
Ye Si has never said anything about these opinions of experts across the United States.
He actually has nothing to say, although these experts like to sensationalize most of the time, but most of their remarks, whether stupid or not, have some theoretical basis in their opinion.
In fact, this time, their theoretical basis is not wrong.
That's why he's going to be crazy about gaining weight here now.
Yes's current weight gain is healthy weight gain and has not disrupted the body's ability to gain fat.
But if it comes to the critical moment, his overweight state has not yet come out, and Ye Si does not mind adding some fat to his body.
After all, weight gain is not that simple, but fattening meat is still very simple.
Watching Yes slowly eliminate the pile of food in front of his seat, the other supersonic players around him were really dumbfounded.
This year, he gained the most weight, and Durant, who gained so much weight that he wanted to vomit, looked cautious and panicked.
This is really ruthless!
Yes is really ruthless! 、
"Kevin, don't be in a daze, Mr. Nelson asked you to go to his office."
Just as Durant was taken aback, Sessions interrupted his shock.
Mr. Nelson looking for?
Durant withdrew his gaze from Yes.
Some frowned.
Yes's current weight gain is Yes's own decision, and it is also a decision approved by Nelson Sr.
If it is not approved by the head coach of the team, as the boss who bears all the heavy responsibilities of the team, Yes's body is no longer his alone.
Yes's body belongs to everyone.
Old Nelson recognized Yes's weight gain, and naturally agreed with Yes's idea of using himself as Randolph.
"Kevin, are you alright?"
"It's fine."
Durant frowned and shook his head, then got up to find Nelson Sr.
Tomorrow is the game against the Rockets, but Nelson Sr. suddenly looks for him alone.
Nelson Sr. agrees with Yes's Randolphization, is he going to make me a Kobe?
But now I can't do it, right?
Confused, Durant left the cafeteria.
The other supersonic players are still watching Yes's 'Big Stomach' performance.
As for Houston, thousands of miles away.
It's boiling now.
On the streets of Houston, there are already faces of Orientals who don't know how many.
Because of Yes and Yao Ming.
For the NBA, this year's Rockets and SuperSonics playoffs are the most watched playoffs in NBA history.
Not one of them!
"On the news, yes seems to be gaining weight lately? I have gained at least five kilograms in half a month, which is not easier than the original Yao. ”
"It's just a pointless struggle, hahahaha......"
Artest looked at his bulging muscles and laughed loudly.
Accompanied by Artest's laughter, the training hall in Houston was filled with a cheerful air.
