After Yi Jianlian, the choices of other teams are exactly the same as in the previous life.

It wasn't until the Wizards, who were the 16th pick, drafted Nick Young, that there was a new movement in the Rockets' cabin.

"Don is right, Marc Gasol is very efficient in Europe, and it is not too much to say that he is far superior to his peers." Smith got the information he wanted at this point, and handed it to Morey as he spoke.

Morey nodded after reading it: "Marc Gasol's high-level statistics show that he is a player in Europe who has reached the top in Europe in attack, but has more potential in defense than his brother Pau Gasol. ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at Tang Tian with a little admiration, he didn't expect the latter's eyes to be so vicious, and he actually had more information than a scout.

Jones smiled, Tang Tian's eyes had already appeared in the draft last year, and it was Millsap who he strongly recommended for selection.

"Don, just draft Mark in the first round, right?" Morey said suddenly.

"Yes, the first-round pick can be signed for four years, and the standard contract for the second-round pick is two years, and Mark will not necessarily leave Europe without guarantees." Tang Tian explained.

Morey nodded, then picked up the phone.

After an exchange, Morey put down the phone and let out a long breath.

"I just made a deal with Philadelphia, and we have an extra 38 sign, Don, who do you think is the right choice?" Morey said and looked at Tang Tian, Gasol's matter had already made him extremely agree with Tang Tian's vision.

Tang Tian looked at Morey in a daze, this Morey was simply shrewd.

"Originally, the team lacked a small forward, but the addition of Michael (Petrus) solved the problem, so anyone can be selected for this signing." Tang Tian followed.

If he is a little higher in the pick, he can still pick Josh McRoberts or Glenn Davis or something, this pick, there is really nothing suitable.

Seeing that Tang Tian didn't ask any more questions, Morey didn't ask any more, but let Smith and Thibodeau discuss it.

At this time, the draft pick is getting further and lower.

"The 25th pick in the first round of the 2007 NBA Draft, the Utah Jazz selected Maurice Almond, a 1.98-meter shooting guard from Rice University."

"A trade happened, the Philadelphia 76ers traded the 30th pick and the 38th pick to get the 26th pick and some cash from the Rockets, and they chose Aaron Brooks, a 1.83-meter point guard from the University of Oregon."

……

"The 30th pick in the first round of the 2007 NBA Draft, the Houston Rockets selected Marc Gasol, a 2.13-meter center from Spain."

When the Rockets drafted Gasol, the Rockets fans at the scene were confused, they didn't even know that this was Pau Gasol's younger brother, and the Rockets draft pick had never been reported in this regard.

Gasol didn't show up, he didn't even sign up for the draft, just because he was 22 years old and automatically participated.

After the Rockets finished drafting, the first round was over.

After a short break, the second round of the draft began.

Like what Tang Tian had previously read, Morey used a future second-round pick and some cash to get the SuperSonics' No. 31 pick, and chose Karl Landry from Purdue University.

Landry is averaging 18.9 points and 7.3 rebounds per game in college this year, and as a short player, he has 16 points and 3 rebounds against Greg Oden.

"This is another Paul Millsap." After making his choice, Morey looked at Tang Tian with a smile.

Tang Tian smiled, not to mention that Landry and Millsap are really a bit alike, they are both short and good at confrontation, but there is a gap in their arm span.

The draft continued, and when the 36th pick was selected, Tang Tian was a little addicted to smoking.

"I'll go to the bathroom." Tang Tian said and got up.

Morey nodded.

Tang Tian came out of the hut and then walked towards the bathroom.

When he got inside, he lit the cigarette, and Tang Tian also let his brain rest.

Smoking a cigarette, he was about to snuff it out when someone walked in.

Coincidentally, he still knows this person, Yi Jianlian's agent, Dan Fagan.

Although fans complained a lot about Fagan in his previous life, and many people described him as a "waste root", Tang Tian knew that the players under the help of this agent had won a lot of premium contracts, and in terms of ability, he was definitely the first tier in the economic man.

Fagan was also surprised to see Tang Tian inside, his reaction was very fast, and he immediately smiled and stretched out his hand: "Coach Tang? ”

Tang Tian nodded and shook hands with Fagan.

"I'm Dan Fagan, and it's a pleasure to meet you."

The two exchanged a few words, and Fagan suddenly said, "I don't know if Coach Tang and Yi know each other?" He is Chinese like you. ”

"I know him, but I haven't seen him." Tang Tian opened his mouth and said, he naturally knew that Fagan was referring to Yi Jianlian.

"Are you interested in coaching?" Fagan said suddenly.

"Huh?" Tang Tian looked at Fagan suspiciously, and then quickly reacted.

Because of the huge success of the Chinese market and Yao Ming, Fagan has always wanted Yi Jianlian to play in big cities, and a small place like Milwaukee is obviously not suitable.

Let Yi Jianlian and Yao Ming play together, this is actually a very good choice, the two cooperate tacitly in the national team, plus he systematically adjusts Yi Jianlian's personality a little, then it seems that the Great Wall of China dominates the NBA is not a dream.

It's just that this is obviously unrealistic now, Yi Jianlian is the No. 6 pick, and the value of this signing is there, and the Rockets want to trade him to get a lot of chips, which is obviously not cost-effective.

"Mr. Fagan seems to have found the wrong person? I don't have the power to decide how to trade players. Tang Tian said with a smile.

Fei Gen was stunned for a moment, but also understood what Tang Tian meant, and after laughing twice, he then motioned for himself to go to the bathroom.

Tang Tian extinguished the cigarette and went back to the hut.

At this time, it was the turn of the Rockets to make a choice.

Tang Tian turned his head and asked Thibodeau in a low voice.

"You're going to love it." Thibodeau also deliberately sold a pass.

Tang Tian was very puzzled, and he didn't think much about it, he picked up the water in front of him and took a sip.

Just then, Stern's assistant, Mark Tetum, walked out of the background.

"In the 2007 NBA Draft, the 38th overall pick in the second round, the Houston Rockets selected Sun Yue, a 2.05-meter guard, from China."

Because Chinese is relatively difficult to pronounce, Tetum speaks very slowly when he reads it, and after reading it, he also smiles awkwardly and gracefully.

"Ahem!"

Tang Tian's saliva almost squirted out, choked on his throat and coughed dryly, his face turned red.

"I said Don would like it." Thibodeau said with a smile.
