The two chatted about this year's labor disputes, and soon came to Tiger's office.

Dawson was already waiting for them, Dawson saw Tiger and Lao Tang pushing the door in, and quickly stood up, Tiger saw it and said with a smile: "I said, Dawson, don't stand up, sit down quickly, you have something to drink." ”

Dawson smiled and said, "I'm done, a cup of the best Blue Mountain coffee, I know you have the boss in stock." ”

Tiger shook his head with a smile and said: "Okay, Dawson, you just think about me, there are two cans, you take them all, it's lost to you, you can know what good things I have, I suspect that you are from the FBI or CIA." ”

Dawson and Old Tang also laughed.

Lao Tang said with a smile: "I'll still have tea, the more I drink it, the more I find that it is good." ”

Tiger nodded, and asked his secretary to bring him two cups of tea.

Looking at the secretary who went out, Tiger opened the file folder in front of him and looked at it carefully, this is a draft plan that Dawson sorted out again in combination with Tiger's information.

Tiger was completely caught up in memories at this time, looking at or the list in front of him, those players in the post-Jordan era, slowly began to appear in full.

The '98 draft can be said to be a draft year second only to the '96 and '03 draft years.

The champion of 98 years, although he is a parallel import, but Tiger believes that it is just that Olawokandi did not meet a good coach, and the reason why he began to degenerate due to his own psychological reasons, in fact, this person's physical fitness is excellent, and his skills are also very good, if he can meet a good coach and team, it is still very promising.

However, the Rockets are exempt, and the top signing level players don't know what price to pay, don't think about it.

Is Mike? Bibby, this is definitely a strong player, in the Kings, in the Hawks, and finally in the Heat, he has shown his ability, but now the Rockets' guard line has enough personnel, so don't think about it.

Tanhua is LaFrentz, the big man pitcher, and the Rockets don't need it right now.

Next up is Anthony? Jamison, this guy is not well positioned and not suitable for the rockets.

Fifth place is Vince? Carter, the man who was later called a demigod, a flying kid all over the sky, a guy who was targeted by Saulius at the Olympics in 00, although he played very ornamentally, but this jumping man needs the ball, so there are so many balls for him, he came to the rocket and the civil war, don't.

Sixth place Robert? Traylor, the Maverick is the Dirk who traded it, and I don't know what the Mavericks think, there is a No. 6 pick that is not selected, and it is being changed after the election, and there is a disease.

Seventh Jason? Williams, 'white chocolate', but, hehe, these Rockets' guards right now can blow him up.

Eighth Larry? Hughes, this is good, I have been a steal king for a year, you can study it.

The ninth is Dirk, and I don't know, what does Milwaukee think, if Dirk is there, if there is no rocket bar, Glenn? Robinson Garay? Aaron, in Gardek, look, that's a bunch of pitchers.

However, the current Bucks are probably depressed too, Ray? Allen was robbed, and it is estimated that in this year's draft, if the Mavericks still want to exchange for Dirk, the price will be even greater.

The tenth place is the immortal bird, the Paul who weighed several knives and didn't die? Pierce, a palace-level small forward, one of the future Green Army's Big Three, if you can, the Rockets can also do one.

In the next Bunch? Wells, Michael? Doriak, Kenyon? Clark, Nesterovich, Michael? Dixon, Matt? Halplin, Richie? Davis, Pat? Garriti, Tyrone? Ru, El? First-round rookies such as Harrington are players of pretty good quality.

It can be said that the gold content of this year's players is extremely high.

Moreover, there are still a few pearls buried in the second round.

Thinking of this, Tiger raised his head and said, "Dawson, Rudy, what are the two of you who are the candidates?" ”

Dawson thought for a moment, rubbed his head and said: "Boss, I really don't know, who to choose, according to the information you provided, these people have very great potential, and it is difficult to give up anyone." ”

At this time, Lao Tang pressed after reading it, raised his head and said: "Actually, we should choose our most suitable players in the draft, now Kevin and Ray and Deyang are already our skeletons, we just need to add flesh and blood, and we don't have to think too much." ”

Tiger nodded with satisfaction and said, "Rudy, your thoughts are the same as mine, my opinion is to only choose the right one, and the flesh and blood we want are not pushed to the building." ”

Lao Tang smiled and didn't say anything.

Tiger continued: "First of all, personally, among the top ten people, there will definitely be king-level characters in the future, one or two are still possible, and there are many others who become supporting roles, and there will be bad ones. So, let's not set our sights on the top 10. Anyway, our highest pick is not 14, let's think about the players in this position, it's still very good, do you have any candidates? ”

Lao Tang and Dawson chose again for a while, and Lao Tang first said: "I have three candidates, let's see if it's suitable, Bunch?" Wells, Matt? Halplin, and Michael? Dixon. ”

Dawson took a look at the introduction and said, "These three people are very distinctive, this Bunch? Wells isn't very tall, but he's very powerful, and he's very lethal in the low post, Matt? Halplin, definitely a defensive stalwort, but a little weaker in scoring, Michael? Dixon is good in all aspects, but the hidden danger of injury is a little bigger, which is something that can't be helped, and the draft is a gamble. ”

Tiger also glanced at it and said, "Is there any other choice?" ”

Dawson and Lao Tang shook their heads at the same time, and Tiger said: "Okay, the first round will be here first, then we will take a look at a few people in the second round, do you have any ideas." ”

The two were stunned again, and Lao Tang said: "The second round is a bigger gamble, boss, are you optimistic about a few people." ”

Tiger smiled calmly and said: "Yes, I also have a few candidates for the second round, let's take a look, Reuben?" Patterson is also a defensive stalwart, and he scores well, but he plays very emotionally, Rashad? Lewis is a local Houston player, you've been in contact with it before, even though he's also a high school student, but Kevin's success is already in the forefront, and that's no excuse, Raf? Alstom, the king of street basketball, if he could be stronger, I don't think anyone would be able to stop him, Catino? Mobley is a very talented player and I am very optimistic about his future. Well, what do you two think? ”

Lao Tang and Dawson both pondered for a long time, and finally Lao Tang said: "We can't see anything about these people, the second round of the draft, you should come by yourself." ”

Tiger glanced at the two of them, and said secretly in his heart: These two old foxes, give me the most difficult questions.

Tiger didn't say anything else, nodded and said, "Now our three candidates for the first round are decided, Bunch?" Wells, Matt? Halplin and Michael? Dixon, I have two candidates for the second round, one is Rassad? Lewis and Catino? Mobley, what do you think? ”

Both of them nodded, indicating that they had no opinion.

Tiger continued: "Now, let's analyze the specific technical characteristics of these people, and their development prospects, both of you have their personal information in the folder, let's continue to understand." ”

Lao Tang and Dawson took out the information of these five people and studied them carefully.

Tiger took out Bunch first? Wells, saying, "Bunch? Wells, born on September 20, 1976, graduated from Ballstate University, height: 6'5 (1.96 meters), position: small forward or shooting guard, how to say, this is a freak, a swing man with a heavy tonnage, and a master of chaos. Less than two metres tall and stats and low-post singles look like a power forward, Wells is a formidable mix on the offensive end. The shooting hand feels stiff, the shooting rate is very unstable, the hand is scary when it is hot, and the iron is continuous when the hand is cold. He doesn't use the three-point shot as a conventional weapon, but occasionally encounters a smooth hand and a performance of consecutive shots. The ability to break through with the ball is very strong, and the impact on the interior is great, but unfortunately the free throw shooting rate always fluctuates around 70%. However, as a swingman, Wells' true power lies in the basket. Due to both tonnage and good basket carrying skills, his speed and explosiveness are far better than that of regular interior players, and he is full of lethality in the low post, and is not good at running without the ball and covering cooperation, which is the basic information. ”

After speaking, taking a sip of tea, Tiger continued: "Michael? Dixon, born: June 25, 1975, graduated: University of Arizona, height: 6'5 (1.96 meters) Position: small forward or guard, flexible feet when attacking, excellent physical fitness, good shooting touch, good shooting percentage, good ability to break through with the ball, good free throws. There is the potential to be a real pitcher, but this person is easily injured and has the potential to be a glass man. What's next? Harplin, Height: 2.01 m / 6 ft 7 in, Field Position: Small Forward, Graduated from: Georgia Institute of Technology, Background as a football player makes him tough, physically tough, good at close defense, decisive, ruthless, can act, indomitable, and fought until the last moment. Good defense, accurate running, good shooting, not limited by distance range, high tactical literacy, is a player who scores on the court. There is the simplicity and feel of a European player. The physical fitness of blacks. An absolute hit. This is the situation of the three people in the first round, do you have any opinions? ”

Lao Tang and Dawson looked at it for a while, and Lao Tang said, "Personally, my first choice is Matt?" Haprin, who is a great addition to Horry at the small forward position, will be more of a shooting guard next season, and at the small forward position, Crohill is not very good defensively. So, this guy is a good addition to us, and he's a rookie, and it's good to cultivate, the second target is Dixon, this guy is very well-rounded, if Matt can't come, then he's also a good addition to the shooting guard position, and this guy in the end is very different, and if he uses it well, it's a miracle soldier, and if he doesn't use it well, it will hurt others and hurt himself. ”

Tiger nodded, marked the three of them separately, and then said, "It's the second round of basic information for two people, Rashad?" Lewis, 6'10 (2.08 m) tall, graduated from Arif Airsk High School, born August 8, 1979. Physical fitness: 2.08m Excellent small forward/power forward height, but the body is too thin to be the pillar of the team's interior line. Ball Virtue: A very good team player, rarely has conflicts with the team and teammates, has a high ball quotient, and is good at thinking. Basic skills: The ability to create an offensive by himself is average, and he usually uses tactics and runs to find scoring opportunities. Inside: Although he is both tall and technically superior, he is too thin to be a good insider. Outside: Range throughout the entire half, soft touch, high jump, flat arc, two corners and ribs are especially accurate. Passing: Not a great passer, with an average of only two assists per game. Positioning: Drifting, when he receives the ball and shoots, defenders often find out where he is. Breakthrough: Practical, effective, not fancy, few mistakes. Ball style: chic and elegant on the field, gentle gentleman off the field. Match control: Lewis was the absolute finisher of the game when it mattered. Next up is Catino Mobley, 1.93 m / 6 ft 4 in, graduate: University of Rhode Island, born September 1, 1975, as a 6-foot-4 attack guard, three weapons guarantee him top-notch offensive firepower. Breakout: He will make a pull-up jump shot 3 or 4 meters from the basket and hit it steadily, but the downside is that he rarely converts a sharp break into an assist, which also makes it easier for defenders to concentrate. Carrying the basket: Born left-handed, it is even more difficult to guard. Slowly dribbling closer to the basket, then suddenly stepping back to make a shot or simply turning around and slipping to the other side for a layup, it's as simple as that.

Long Shot: He never hesitates when an open opportunity arises, and as an attacker with no dominant size, accurate outside shooting will be the foundation of his life. Okay, that's all. What do you think? ”

Old Tang and Dawson were silent, and Tiger could only shake his head, muttering in his heart: These two old foxes.
