The tall and strong declaration of candidacy not only made the Chinese basketball world boil, but also caused a lot of chain reactions in the international basketball world.

Tall has been on the radar of many NBA teams since the World Junior Championships, and as he gets better and better, he has long been regarded as a top-10 pick in the draft.

In particular, Gao Dazhuang not only led the Chinese youth team to win the championship as the MVP of the World Youth Championships, but also played well in the CBA playoffs, comprehensively suppressed the former NBA top-paid player Marbury in the matchup, and led the league in playoffs in scoring and assists, completely demonstrating his strength.

According to ESPN, the talented defender, hailed as a "BUG" by Chinese fans, will be a strong contender for the top 5 in this draft.

According to Sports Illustrated, despite suffering a torn ligament injury, he will still be the top target of the Portland Trail Blazers and Toronto Raptors in the draft.

The top brass of both teams have publicly expressed their admiration for the tall and strong, and both teams have a great chance of acquiring a top-ranked draft pick.

In the last 4 mock drafts, Gao Dazhuang has always been picked by these two teams in the 5th and 6th picks.

In addition to the Trail Blazers and Raptors, the NBA Lakers, Mavericks, Bulls and Nets have all publicly expressed interest in Tall and Strong, but these teams will not be too high in the draft due to their records, and unless a series of trades are passed, it is unlikely that they will pick Tall and Strong, who has a good draft pick.

Regarding the draft market of Gao Dazhuang, media experts are unanimously optimistic, the famous draft expert, ESPN name Ford said that if Gao Dazhuang recovers from an ankle injury, then he is likely to be the top five rookie, "The most outstanding thing about Gao Dazhuang is his outstanding talent and super learning ability, before the start of the World Youth Championships, Gao Dazhuang was only a little-known player, but in the subsequent games, Gao Dazhuang showed his terrifying scoring ability, and was able to change the game with offense, and the improvement was amazing"

There are even many mainstream media outlets that believe that Tall Strong, Brad Beal, Dion Vites, and Damian Lillard will all have a chance to compete for the best guard spot in this draft.

Sports Illustrated reported that when Ohio University's Jared Sallinger, Baylor University's Perry Jones III, and the University of North Carolina's Harrison Barnes chose to stay on campus for another year a year ago, the voices about the size of this year's NBA draft were even louder.

Many people say that this year is a big year for the NBA draft, and the top management of "Sports Illustrated" conducted a vote, and the managers and executives of each team have had a heated discussion about this year's NBA draft, among which everyone is very optimistic about the prospective Davis, 19-year-old University of Kentucky interior Anthony Davis averaged 19.2 points, 14.4 rebounds, 4.7 blocks and 1.4 steals per game this season, shooting 68.3% from the field, he led Kentucky to a 38-2 season, Many people think he can surpass Griffin and Garnett, and the tall and strong from China is another hot topic.

Finally, the 2012 NBA Draft Lottery was held in New York, according to the current odds rankings, the Bobcats are most likely to draw the top pick, they have a 25% chance, the second place is the Wizards, they have a 19.9% chance of winning the first pick, the third place is the Cavaliers, they have a 13.8% chance of winning the first pick, and the 4-14 teams are: Hornets (13.7%), Kings (7.6%), Nets (7.5%), Warriors (3.6%), Raptors (3.5%), Pistons (1.7%), Hornets (1.1%), Trail Blazers (0.8%), Bucks (0.7%), Suns (0.6%) and Rockets (0.5%).

Last season, the Cavaliers had a 2.8 percent chance of winning the No. 1 pick, eventually bringing Duke point guard Kyrie Irving.

In the end, under the watchful eye, the New Orleans Hornets were lucky to get the top pick with a 13.7% probability, and the Charlotte Bobcats and the Washington Wizards got the first and second picks, respectively.

The draft will be held at the Prudential Center Arena in Newark, New Jersey, and will also be broadcast live from ESPN.

After the lottery ceremony, many media conducted intensive interviews with the senior executives and coaches of the NBA teams present.

"It's a great draft, but it's also a draft that can go wrong," said a more cautious general manager of an Eastern Conference team, "and there will be players in the 2nd and 3rd and 12th places that will make you make mistakes, and there will be a lot of players in the 15-30 range who will be pretty good, and it's a deep draft, but it's also a very risky draft." ”

Another general manager from a Western Conference team said, "There are going to be great talented players around the 30th or 40th pick, and there are 3-5 potential All-Stars here."

Another Western Conference team executive said: "How many players have a chance to be a star? There are about 6 of them. ”

Davis was clearly one of the most promising of them all, and after the draw, Hornets head coach Monty Williams made no secret of his admiration for Davis when he presented his top pick after the draw ceremony: "He's probably better than Blake Griffin, I don't even think it's going to be his ultimate achievement, I think he might end up being a little bit better than Garnett." ”

"He's maybe a quiet, humble player, not quite as great as Duncan, but he's going to be like that. I don't think he's going to be at Duncan's level, but he's going to be a really good player," and Bobcats owner Jordan said with some "jealousy".

And Wizards manager Grunfield didn't want to make such a comparison too soon: "For a while, I wanted to figure out, is he Camby?" A great defensive player who can change the game with defense? But not much offensive ability? But then after a few days I understood, oh no, he's got more offensive ability, he's got this kind of offense, and I think Davis is a very good kid. ”

At this year's NCAA Finals, Davis scored just six points on 1-of-10 shooting, but he still won the Outstanding Player Award in the Final Four for dishing out 16 rebounds, six hot pots, five assists and three steals.

"He only scored six points, but he still controlled the game," Hornets head coach Monty Williams said, "and he's going to be the best rookie in this draft, and if the other rookies can play with the high expectations of Davis, then it's going to be a draft that will be absolutely remembered."

Hornets head coach Monty Williams' statement has made Kentucky Wildcats forward Anthony Davis more and more certain, and then people will be concerned, who is the No. 2 in this draft year?

'There are a lot of good players this year, remember, good players, not privileged players. Bobcats owner Jordan told Yahoo Sports, "There were three or four All-Stars and even future Hall of Famers in the 2003 draft, but this year you probably won't find a second privileged player other than Anthony Davis, but this year's draft players are very good, and there are a lot of good seedlings who can take a place on the team."

"Michael Kidd Kilchrist is also good, this is a very tough player, full of toughness, he has everything that a small forward has: big man, aggressive, but his shooting ability is relatively lacking, but he has the ability to get better, in the draft, you can't miss a guy like that" Under the constant questioning of reporters, Jordan still revealed his goal in mind.

Glenfield, the manager of the Wizards who won the show, expressed his appreciation for Bradley Beal, a freshman from the University of Florida: "Beal is a super shooter, as a shooting guard, he is very good on defense and rebounding, and he has a high basketball IQ and looks smart on the court."

Cavaliers manager Chris. Grant has his eye on Andre Drummond, a big man from Connecticut, "He's huge, he's the most physically adapted guy in this class of players in the NBA, yes, he can do an NBA-level center confrontation, but the technical skills are far from being formed, but as people often say, potential is the most important thing in the draft, and Drummond is such an interior player with great potential."

Of course, the fifth-ranked tall and strong draft pick is also a hot topic for media interviews.

Portland Trail Blazers manager Orsi, who finished sixth in the draft, said bluntly: "Tall and strong is an incredible player, although he comes from mysterious China and plays in a league that we are not familiar with, he proved himself at the World Junior Championships, and he single-handedly defeated the talented American youth team"

"Breakthrough is his lethal weapon, speed and power are perfectly combined when breaking through, its explosiveness, bounce, and strength are very good, I have seen a lot of videos about tall and strong, he often stages a good show of rushing into the opponent's interior line to grab a rebound on the head of a big player or a strong dunk, he has a natural sense of smell for rebounding, a triple-double is not difficult for him, and after the World Youth Championships, Gao Dazhuang has made a lot of progress in jump shots and blocking, and the three-point shot is becoming more and more stable......" Talking about his favorite players, At one point, Orsie, the Portland manager, gushed out.

Lakers general manager Kupchak also gave a high evaluation of the tall and strong: "I think he may be the most promising player in this draft, maybe he can be a cornerstone of the team"

"If the tall and strong draft pick slips, we certainly have no reason to miss it," Rockets general manager Morey responded with a smile to a reporter's question.
