Chapter 659: Shocked! Harden is traded! (1/4! )

The Kentucky Wildcats are the powerhouses of the NCAA and one of the important sources of NBA talent, with 10-year champion Wall, 11-year champion Anthony Davis, plus this year's Carl Anthony Towns, this is 6 years and 3 champions!

And this year, in addition to Towns, Stan was selected by the Kings with the 6th pick, Lyles was selected by the Jazz with the 12th pick, and now Booker was selected again with the 13th pick, and Kentucky started the Five Tigers and Four Lotto!

Although the Nets have not tried out Booker before, Booker's previous prediction is almost on the edge of the lottery, which is not a surprise.

Devin Booker has been playing for the Suns in his previous life, because the Suns' record has been sparse all year round and has been criticized by countless people.

But even so, Kobe, who became a celebrity, praised him, calling him the new generation of scoring guards who most like him, and even gave him a pair of his signature shoes that read "Be Legend"

In the 17~18 season, Booker even had a 70-point performance in a single game.

In the evaluation of the American media, he is also one of the top 10 quarterbacks in the future ruling league.

There are many people who say that Booker does not deserve such praise, because his ability to lead the team in the Suns has been sparse, and the 70 points are also brushed up by the whole team.

But in fact, this is a confusion of concepts, just like Guy said that whoever takes 40 shots can score 40 points, first of all, you have to have the physical strength to shoot so many times, and secondly, the more points you score, the greater the defensive intensity you will encounter, otherwise everyone in the NBA can score 70 points.

Of course, the most important point is that talent and scoring are easy to distinguish between those who have watched too many games, just like Anthony Davis, talent visible to the naked eye, although the Pelicans' record has been sparse before, everyone knows that he is the most talented power forward in the league.

Booker is the cornerstone of the outside, Jokic is the cornerstone of the interior, and this is the future structure that Tang Tian has built for the Nets.

The Nets' next draft pick is the 23rd pick, and Tang Tian came out of the draft hut before that, ready to say hello to Booker.

"A deal happened."

Just when he walked to the second floor, Xiao Hua, who came out again, did not directly announce the selection of the Rockets, but directly chose a trade.

"The 14th pick in the first round of the 2016 NBA belonged to the Oklahoma City Thunder, and they had five minutes to think about it."

He looked at the LED screen at the scene in a daze, and all the fans in the audience acted the same as him, and their eyes were full of incredulity.

The Rockets, the Thunder, and the Jazz reached a three-way deal!

The Rockets sent Kevin Martin and Dion Waiters, the No. 12 pick in 2013, Steven Adams, the 14th pick this year and next year's first-round pick, in a trade for the Thunder's James Harden and the 18th pick.

The Jazz sent Enes Kanter and the 18th draft pick to Kevin Martin and Rudy Gobert (4.5 points and 4.7 rebounds per game in sophomores).

The Thunder sent James Harden and Rudy Gobert to Enes Kanter, Dion Waiters, Steve Adams and the 14th pick in this year's first-round pick and the 2016 Rockets first-rounder.

Harden, was traded to the Rockets!

Kanter is one of the inner duo in the Jazz, Witesse is a potential new star, the Rockets just traded from the Cavaliers last season, and Adams is Howard's main backup, averaging 7.7 points and 7.5 rebounds per game last season, performing well, and as for this year's No. 14 pick, it is also very valuable.

The Thunder's deal was a very big deal, but it was James Harden!

Double MVP!

But after thinking about it, it seems to be understandable.

Westbrook and Harden had a falling out last season, not only did they fail to win the championship, but the Thunder management may have received some information that they had to choose one of the two options.

Until then, trading Harden, who is doing relatively poorly, is the only option they can make.

And another point, Ibaka didn't play the No. 5 position in the playoffs last season, and trading for a strong center is also an option to change.

Tang Tian was very helpless.

The Thunder Four Shao finally disintegrated, he racked his brains to leave the Four Shao, but he still didn't escape this ending, which is somewhat embarrassing.

Booker was celebrating with his family at this time, but when Tang Tian went down, the young man still noticed it at a glance and immediately turned around.

"Mr. Tang." Booker is very respectful, a bit of an American gentleman.

Most of the NBA players are inspirational, and when they were young, their families were not good, and they changed their fate by playing, such as Iverson and Butler.

But at the same time, there are also many players who are well-educated from wealthy families, such as Klay Thompson of the Warriors, such as Devin Booker in front of him.

His father, Melvin Booker, was a former professional basketball player who played for teams such as the Rockets, Nuggets and Warriors, much like Kobe.

"I'm ready to watch you score like crazy on the pitch." Tang Tian said with a smile.

"I will." Booker is confident.

After chatting for a while, Tang Tian then went back to the draft hut.

The Nets also have a 23-pick pick, which is interesting to say, and the Celtics happen to have another 22-pick.

Tang Tian was waiting for Anji to be put on by him again, but he didn't expect Anji to quit, and directly traded with the Bulls with the 22nd pick, replacing the opponent's first round next year, and directly avoiding being played again.

Tang Tian who watched this scene was also happy.

But it also saved him a lot of trouble.

Xiao Hua walked out of the backstage for the 23rd time and announced the Nets' selection with a smile on his face.

"In 2015, with the 23rd pick in the first round of the NBA, the Brooklyn Nets selected Rondle Hollis Jefferson, a 2.01-meter small forward from the University of Arizona."

Tang Tian made the same choice as in his previous life.

Jefferson doesn't have a lot of scoring ability, but he does a great job defensively, and he is a well-known defensive gatekeeper in the NCAA, defending from the No. 1 position to the No. 5 position, and ESPN gives the template of the well-known Bruce Bowen, and he is more athletic than Bowen.

This is a typical developable forward, a qualified number four in a small-ball lineup.

This is also Tang Tian's reserve for the future of the Nets, and championship teams are always indispensable to such a No. 1 person, just like PJ Tucker of the Thunder.

In his previous life, Jefferson already had an outstanding performance of 14 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists in his third year.

By any measure, this choice is not a loss.

Booker and Jefferson, the Nets have gained a lot by winning these two high-quality rookies in the draft.

"Trade with the Suns for their second round pick next year." After making this choice, Tang Tian said directly to Jones.

Joe Johnson's trade has not been promoted, and there are a few very good scoring guards in the second round this year, but after selecting Booker, plus the original Bogdan, and Maddie, this position is already overcrowded, and it doesn't make much sense to choose again, it is better to exchange for the future.
