Chapter 60: It's Another Year of Draft

Regardless of Vivek's thoughts, Terek didn't plan to do anything for the time being, after all, everything was just someone else's words. Even if you want to confess to Anjiali, you must do it under the premise that you are very sure, and you must be shocking enough.

A few days later, Angeli had to leave Sacramento due to family travel plans, and Terek continued to work on his training schedule, eager to play better next season.

At the same time, the results of the 2011 NBA Draft have been released, and the Sacramento Kings have three picks this year, namely the 14th pick in the first round, the 20th pick in the second round, and the 30th pick in the second round.

When the draw was announced, Terek received another call from Petri.

"Tyrek, well, I didn't expect you to be so good, not long after the team changed hands, you got in ...... with the new owner's baby daughter"

"Ahem, Mr. Petri, how can you make fun of me like everyone else......" Terek said angrily.

"Haha, okay, okay, I won't say much about young people, I have something to do with you."

"Oh?"

"Tyrek, do you remember the agreement I made with you last offseason? Wesley. Johnson didn't play badly last season and was named to the All-Rookie Second Team, but it didn't live up to my expectations. I don't know how he's going to go next season, but you do have some point. I'm keeping my word, and I'd like to hear what you think of this year's draft. ”

Hanging up the phone, Tyrek thought about it, this year's draft pick has changed from what he once remembered, and due to the improvement of the record, the Kings have the 14th pick in the first round this year. Since he couldn't fully search for the rookies of the class of 2011 from his memory, Terek quickly turned on the computer and looked up the rookies who were running for this year.

"Oh, it's these people, it's a bit of an impression now......" Tyrek leaned back on the couch and read this year's draft information, already having some thoughts in his mind.

The next day, Tyrek returned to Petri's office.

"Tyrek, sit down......" Petri beckoned Terek to sit down and handed him a hot cup of coffee.

"Thanks, Mr. Petri."

Petri sat down across from Tyrek and said with a smile: "Tyrek, let's get straight to the point, this year's draft is about to begin, we have carefully analyzed and studied the scouting report, and have made preliminary decisions on these positions, but I want to hear your opinion." ”

Tyrek took a sip of his coffee and said, "Mr. Petri, can you tell me who the team is going to pick?" ”

Petri thought for a moment, "It's okay to talk to you, after all, the boss has said that you are a privileged player of the team." We have the 14th pick in the first round, and our top picks in this pick are the Morris brothers, who are not enough to have a pool of personnel at the No. 4 position, and the Morris brothers, who are athletic and have a soft shooting touch, can greatly enrich the team's options at the No. 4 spot. At the same time, my personal favorite is Jimmer. Fredette, his college performance was so astounding! But there's no way a player of this caliber will end up with the 14th pick, and the team doesn't plan to trade draft picks upward. ”

Speaking of which, Petri couldn't help but have a look of longing on his face.

In Tyrek's memory, the Morris brothers were selected with the 13th and 14th picks respectively, and Petri wanted to choose them for good reason, and the two are indeed strong players, but they are only blue-collar players.

"I dare to pack a ticket Fredette is going to lose his college style in the NBA, Fredette's physical condition is too poor...... My suggestion is Jimmy. Butler! ”

In Tyreck's memory, after the 14th pick, the best player in the first round was the 15th pick, and the Indiana Pacers selected Kawai. Leonard and Jimmy Brown, drafted by the Chicago Bulls with the 30th pick. Butler. Ke Huai. Leonard in Grieg. Popovich became one of the best players in the league. Butler relied on his own efforts, seized the opportunity to start on defense, and eventually grew into the league's top wing.

Tyrek would have liked to suggest that Petri choose Kawy. Leonard, but Kowy. Leonard's success is inseparable from the development of the Spurs. Butler is a true acquirer, and Ben was replaced by Tom. Chosen as a defensive striker, Thibodeau seized every opportunity and developed into a true star despite his own efforts.

Legendary coach Greg. Popovich, three future Hall of Famer stars, the atmosphere of an old powerhouse, the Spurs' platform is not what the current Kings can provide. Leonard, no one knows how high he can grow with the Kings. And Tyrek believes that as long as Jimmy is given. Butler has a chance, and he can grow up wherever he is.

Jimmy...... Butler? Jimmy of Marquette University. Butler? Petri shook his head silently.

"Players who are older, have average talent, and don't have a certain amount of talent to make it to the first round, and you let me pick him with the 14th pick? You say Fredette can't play in the NBA, but you say Jimmy with the 14th pick. Butler, this is child's play......"

Seeing that Petri was not interested in his proposal, Tyrek was also surprised, after all, from now on, Jimmy. Butler is indeed not a good seedling, but no one can see the diligence of the day after tomorrow.

Tyrek remembers that in the 2011 draft, after the 14th pick, there were three All-Stars. Leonard, Jimmy. Butler, "The Strongest 175 on Earth" Isaiah. Thomas. Among them Isaiah. Thomas would have been drafted by the Kings with the 60th pick. Leonard is a piece of gem, but Tyrek doesn't think the Kings, who are now predominantly young, can develop good Kowy. Leonard, so Jimmy had to be plucked. Butler!

Tyrek thought for a moment and said to Petri solemnly, "Mr. Petri, I strongly recommend Jimmy. Butler, even if the team is not willing to select him with the 14th pick, I want the team to take Jimmy through the operation. Butler! ”

Seeing that Tyrek's attitude was so resolute, Petri stared at Tyrek for dozens of seconds, frowned slightly, shook his head and smiled: "Tyrek, I'm really ...... Okay, you are the number one person in our team, and the boss has said that the team will build around you, so he will naturally consider your opinion. You recommend Jimmy so much. Butler...... Well, after all, it's not a hot player, so there's nothing wrong with it! ”
