The 40th pick was the Nets' pick for sending Garnett away, and it was their only pick in the draft.

After making their choice, the New York fans at the scene did not seem very excited, but exchanged words with each other.

Obviously, this rookie named Jokic, they didn't know about it before.

Even because they didn't come to the scene, they could only know what this person looked like through the photos shown on the screen at the scene.

However, Tang Tian took a long breath after watching this scene, this draft has already made a lot of money.

After making his choice, Tang Tian then went outside to breathe.

As in previous years, there will be a few draft pearls every year, and he didn't look for all of them before, because the team already has talent, but now the Nets are really poor, and he naturally doesn't want to miss any of them that he can collect.

As he passed by the Nuggets' draft cabin, he heard a shouting from inside.

It's certainly a frustrating thing for a player to be cut off.

Tyler Johnson, Langston Galloway, and Tariq Black are the three undrafted picks that Tang Tian is looking for, and it just so happens that all three of them are on the scene.

So before the draft, Tang Tian was ready to meet them.

Tyler Johnson, a senior at Fresno State University, looks pretty athletic as a white man and has a decent mid-range shot, but other than that, there's not much to look forward to.

Tang Tian was the first to find him, in addition to knowing that he would adapt very well in the NBA as an older rookie, there were other things that attracted him more.

At this time, the second round of the draft has come to an end, regardless of whether it can be selected, it is very difficult to stay in the NBA in the end, so the players who are still on the scene, their expressions are not very good.

Tang Tian walked straight to Taylor Johnson's side and sat down.

"Hey, Taylor." Tang Tian greeted with a smile.

"Hey...... Instructor? Johnson saw that it was Tang Tian, and his eyes were full of surprise.

Tang Tian came in just now and almost the audience cheered, he also saw it, it is estimated that he never thought that the godfather of the dynasty with 7 crowns in hand would take the initiative to find him.

"Here's my contact information, you can call me if you need it after the draft." Tang Tian didn't say it directly, after all, the draft is not over yet, and he said that he felt that you would definitely not be selected.

Johnson probably guessed what Tang Tian meant, the Nets had no draft picks, which was a way out for him.

"Coach, why me?" Johnson is still a curious baby, in fact, by this time in the draft, he was ready to lose the draft to play in the summer league, but he didn't expect Tang Tian to come out halfway.

"I know you, I heard that you knocked out two teeth in a college training class, and you picked up the teeth and gave them to the assistant coach to continue training, right?" Tang Tian said with a smile.

"Yes, it was my sophomore year, and I took the time to fill two teeth after training." Johnson nodded, his eyes full of surprise, obviously he didn't expect Tang Tian to know about these little things about him.

"That's why I'm looking for you, I like players with fighting spirit." Tang Tian said very directly.

Johnson nodded, still looking excited.

After Johnson, Tang Tian successively looked for Galloway and Blake, and gave each other's contact information.

The Nets still have a surplus on the roster, and these undrafted picks can sign non-guaranteed contracts without delaying the next thing in the free agent market.

"In 2014, the 30th pick in the second round of the NBA, the Oklahoma City Thunder selected Corey Jefferson, the 2.06m forward from Baylor University, this draft is over, thank you for your participation."

After the Thunder made their final selection, the 2014 NBA Draft finally came to an end.

Shortly after the end, Tang Tian received a call from Johnson, who was interested in signing a contract directly with the Nets.

However, Galloway and Black did not call Tang Tian, it seems that they do not want to come to the Nets.

This is not the same as the previous situation when Tang Tian went to find those undrafted picks.

But it's not too surprising to think about it.

Tang Tian was in a super strong team before, and he could get a good contract if he really competed, but as for the Nets, look at the market after Teletovic put it on the shelf, even if there is a little data, the market will not be too good.

Tang Tian didn't care, the results of this draft meeting had greatly exceeded his expectations, three high-quality rookies, which helped the Nets' talent go up a lot.

After the draft meeting, Tang Tian was not idle, and asked Jones to directly connect with the two rookies and let them report to the team in the new season.

Bogdanovic's situation is relatively smooth, because the contract with the club has just expired, and the Nets are interested in signing him directly, and he has no reason to refuse.

However, Jokic's situation is a little more complicated, as he still has a year left on his contract with the club, and he has to pay $1 million for a buyout, which is not a small amount for the 19-year-old Serbian.

Jokic's idea is to wait until his contract expires next year before joining.

But Tang Tian couldn't wait, he picked up the phone directly: "Don't you want to be the next Marc Gasol?" I'll take care of the money for you. ”

There are rules in the NBA, and the home team can only pay a maximum of 300,000 for the buyout fee, but this is actually a dead rule, because there is no limit to the contract of the second-round show, and Tang Tian only needs to add the remaining 700,000 directly to the contract.

Jokic couldn't refute it when he heard this, Tang Tian's attitude couldn't be compared to others at all.

In his previous life, Jokic came to the NBA after fulfilling his contract, and the Nuggets were optimistic about him, but they were only optimistic, and they didn't treat him as the cornerstone of the team at first, but they just played it later.

"I'll talk to the team right away." Jokic directly agreed to Tang Tian.

Got two overseas rookies, and the Nets draft was finally done.

Tang Tian can finally focus on the next free agent market.

The team's salaries are already below the luxury tax after sending away Garnett and Taylor Tovic, which makes them somewhat competitive in the free agent market going forward.

Fast forward to July 1, 2014, when the 2014 free agent market officially opened.

Compared to last year, this year's free agent market is not far behind.

Carmelo Anthony, Kyle Lowry, Chris Bosh, Dirk Nowitzki, these are all superstars who can make the market upswing, not to mention Paul Pearce, Trevor Ariza, Lance Stevens and other high-quality role players.

Of course, it wasn't these people who made the free market boil, but LeBron James, who announced that he was out of contract after the free market door opened.
