Chapter 12 Draft Meeting
Liu Su sat in a chair in the back and watched NBA commissioner Stern walk up to the podium and announce the start of the draft. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"The 2005 draft is now underway." After saying a bunch of nonsense, Stern started pulling out the draft pick to announce the results. "The Milwaukee Bucks have chosen Andrew Bogut from Australia!"
Andrew Bogut is a centre-forward, and most of the top picks over the years have been centre-forwards. The Australians didn't know what they could do, and they became the champions, maybe the Bucks lacked a center.
"The Atlanta Eagles have chosen Marvin Williams from North Carolina."
Marvin is a forward with great scoring ability and rebounding ability, and he was once famous in college. His technical traits are a perfect fit for the Eagles, who have been eyeing players for a long time.
"The Utah Jazz chose Deron Williams from Illinois."
DeLong is strong, physically strong, and technically solid, having led the University of Illinois to a 36-2 record. One of the two major point guards in '05.
"The New Orleans Hornets have chosen Chris Paul from Wake Forest."
Chris Paul, the best player of '05. The fact that one man leads the underdog Hornets to become a strong team is enough to prove his greatness.
"Mount Charlotte chose Raymond Felton from North Carolina."
Raymond and Marvin are team members and point guards, but their strength is worse than Delon and Chris, and he was selected, which made Liu Su a little painful. This is a selection of three point guards in a row, and the rhythm is a little wrong! But there is no way, who made North Carolina a prestigious school, and won the championship this year.
"The Portland Trail Blazers chose Martel Webster from Washington State."
Martel didn't go to college, just completed his Seattle high school prep education and was a talented player and swingman at the front.
"The Toronto Raptors have chosen Charlie Villanueva from Connecticut."
Charlie looks very peculiar, he is a bald head, and what is even more peculiar is that he doesn't even have eyebrows, and he is a hairless hero.
"The New York Knicks have chosen Channing Frye from Arizona."
Qian Ning is also a relatively good player, at least Liu Su, a former pseudo-fan, has heard his name.
"The Golden State Warriors chose Ek Diogu from Arizona State University."
Liu Su's daily wrinkles up, the Warriors actually chose a big forward, which is a position they agreed to lack, and the choice is understandable. However, Liu Su was still a little unwilling, and his ranking was about to decline again.
"The Los Angeles Lakers have chosen Andrew Bynum from New Jersey."
Bynum is a high school student who is known to fans who are familiar with the Lakers, and the Lakers chose him to replace Big Shark O'Neal. Although Bynum is far worse than O'Neal, it has to be said that he is a very good center, much better than O'Neal in shooting and serving.
"The Orlando Magic chose Fran Vazquez from Spain."
is a big forward again, Liu Su is almost numb, why does this year's draft like to be in a position so much?
"The Los Angeles Clippers chose Liu Su from China."
It wasn't until now that Liu Su smiled, and he thought he was going to lose! If the Clippers don't pick him, he'll be out of the first round. The Bulls and Mavericks didn't trade for draft picks, and he could only pray that he would be drafted in the second round, and that an Olympic champion would fall out of the first round.
In fact, what Liu Su didn't know was that Donald Sterling, the owner of the Clippers, was a greedy man, and Liu Su's Chinese status could expand the influence of the Clippers and increase his chances of getting rich. Look at Yao Ming after joining the Rockets, the Rockets have almost become the parent team of Chinese fans, and many Chinese and even yellow-skinned people like to watch the Rockets' games, if nothing else, just for a strong sense of substitution.
How could Donald not be tempted by such an opportunity? He has given a death order to the team's management to select Liu Su to the Clippers and then sign him.
The next choice of Liu Su is not very clear, but he seems to have heard that the Clippers will choose a small forward in the second round, a player named Ryan who is an American player.
In the afternoon, Liu Su saw this black man named Ryan, who can play big forward and small forward, but he is a short and stout player, who is tall and can barely play small forward, but the speed is too slow, strong can play big forward, but he is too short.
Soon, the general manager and coach Mike Dunleavy Sr. reached an agreement with the Yao team, giving Liu Su a 2+1 contract, with a team option for the third year. The salary is $2.69 million in the first year, $2.87 million in the second year, and $3.1 million in the third year.
After Liu Su signed the contract, he was sent out by the old Dunleavy to play in the summer league, which is the NBA summer warm-up game, which is generally to examine new players, Liu Su has not played in the United States, and the old Dunleavy naturally wants to see his performance.
