Chapter 10 Trades and the Draft
ps:: I'm sorry for my book friend Aiya here. I know you took care of my mood when you wrote Ivanka Trump, and when I was idle and went to check the other people on the list of the world's top 10 richest unmarried women in the United States Forbes magazine, I fell straight off the bench, **yes, dare to be a little richer? The others are either descendants of business magnates or daughters of Russian tycoons. Either start your own business or inherit the family property. Is...... I'm sorry for you here. I'm sorry. Well, Ivanka Trump is the No. 2 spare tire, and what about the next No. 3? I need your help!! Help!! Help me!!! Next is the text.
When the general manager of the Philadelphia 76ers and Larry saw Ben Wallace, they both made up their minds to sign him.
They moved fast and made a deal with the Pistons and Magic in a matter of days.
The Philadelphia 76ers sent away this year's first-round and second-round picks, as well as Matt Geiger, Kevin Ollie and Buford for Ben Wallace and second-round picks from the Pistons. The Magic paid Ben Wallace and Char Atkins and a first-round pick (the Magic had three first-round picks in 2000) to get Glenger Hill, Matt Geiger and Philadelphia in the second round, and the Pistons paid Granger Hill and a second-round pick to get one first-round pick each from Buford, Char Atkins, Kevin Ollie, Philadelphia and Magic.
The deal looked like Philadelphia had lost, but only a few people, including Luke, knew that Philadelphia had made a lot of money this time.
The trade continued, and Larry wanted to trade for a better forward, but he didn't have enough chips and had to give up. So he set his sights on the draft again.
This rookie isn't too good compared to other years, but that's just for those who can become superstars, and there are still a lot of good role players in this rookie class. For example, Michael Reed, although the 76ers already have a sixth man, Aaron McGee, no one will think that their team's bench firepower is too strong, so the 76ers actively traded and traded $2 million in exchange for a second-round pick from the Milwaukee Bucks.
Once the deal is done, there's nothing big going on, just waiting for the draft.

"Why did you call me there?" Luke said to Aaron.
Major events like the draft are usually handled by the core of the team and the head coach, and I didn't expect to call Luke, a rookie who has just arrived.
"The coach tells you to go, you go, ask so much why are you doing?" Aaron was dissatisfied, and pulled him away as he spoke.
"Welcome to TNT's live stream of the draft, this is New Jersey, I'm your dear commentator Charles Barkley, next to me Smith and Bill Wharton. Smith: What do you think of this draft. Barkley said.
"Hehe, this draft is still good, there are Kenyon Martin, and talented players like 'KG II' Darius Miles......" "Okay Smith, don't talk nonsense about you, we all know this," Barkley looked disdainful "to get to the point, I heard that there was a talented player this time, but he didn't have a draft, do you know who he is?" With that, he blinked at Smith while mouthing at Billnunu.
Of course Smith understood, "Of course I know who it is," said Smith, "isn't it Wharton Jr.?" I don't know why it's not a draft, come on, come on, let's look at the data provided by the team's scouts...... Well...... Over here...... Wow! It's really amazing that he is 201cm tall, 203cm tall in shoes, 212cm in reach, weighs 106 kg, and the fat content of the whole body accounts for only 5.9%, with a height of 270cm in situ, a vertical bounce of 87cm, and a maximum bounce of 95cm. He ran 3.15 seconds in the three-quarters of the sprint, 10.37 seconds in the switchback agility test, and his bench press maxed 190kg. I really have to call it a genius. It's just a champion asset. "Yes, yes, only a little worse than my Sir Charles." Barkley said.
"Then why not take an elective? Was it your Bill's bad idea? Don't want your son to overtake you? Smith picked up Bill and opened it.
"Uh...... It's his own decision, and you know I didn't care much about him after I was 18. Bill said.
"Really? How did I hear that you put him in touch for the tryout? Barkley was clearly unconvinced.
"That's what I can do, after all, it's my own child. It's impossible not to help. β
"Hehe, then you're not helping. The people of New Jersey must have hated you for letting them go for nothing with such a good striker. New Jersey people can't cry. Barkley said.
"But he went to your parent team, Charles, how do you feel?" Smith asked.
"Of course it's great, I knew that kid had a good ......," Barkley began his tirade again.
"Alright, don't say any more, the elective will start right away." Bill interrupted Barkley.
"Okay, let's take a look." Attention shifted to the draft.
"Welcome to the NBA 2000 Draft, and the New Jersey Nets were the No. 1 pick...... Kenyon Martin of the University of Cincinnati, congratulations. "Yay!!" Kenyon Martin stood up, put on a baseball cap emblazoned with the Nets logo, hugged his loved ones around him, and walked onto the podium. "Thank you so much to the Nets for choosing me, and thank you to my family......" Kenyon Martin began his tirade.
Luke in the audience yawned repeatedly, "When will it be over?" Luke asked.
"Not now, I sat there for a long time." Aaron said with disdain.
"You don't know when I don't know, you're the champion, the first to go up, and soon to come down." Luke retorted.
"Then I'm nervous, I don't know how stressful it is." Aaron said.
"That's right. Hey, old bird, how long do we have left? Luke asked a question.
"It won't be long, and there are still thirty more." Aaron said indifferently.
"Oh my God! How long is it, how can this be boiled! "Luke is going crazy.
"Shhh Generally speaking, we are all thinking about who to choose now, have you figured it out? β
"You just choose, you're the boss of the team, you choose the right one."
"But Larry told me to ask you."
"The coach told you to ask me? It's true? β
"Of course it's true, what am I lying to you for?"
"Okay, uh-huh...... We're two in the second round, two consecutive numbers 43 and 44, right? β
"That's right, we're number 43, 44."
"That's fine, Michael Reed at No. 43 and Brian Cardinal at No. 44."
"Okay." Aaron said.
"Hey, you're really writing." Luke thought it was just Aaron talking and playing.
"Why don't you write?" Aaron was puzzled.
"I'm just saying it casually, do you believe it?"
"Your vision is so accurate, I believe in you." Aaron tapped Luke on the shoulder.
"You're a ...... But those two players are really good. There will be no loss. β
"It's good that you don't lose money." Aaron sweated for himself, he had just made a self-determination to let Luke choose to bet on Luke's vision, but this time it was good, he was right.
"Next up is No. 43, and the Philadelphia 76ers have Michael Reid from Ohio State University, congratulations."
"Next up is No. 44, and the Philadelphia 76ers chose Purdue University (what a strange name, built by Buddhism?). Brian Cardinal, congratulations. β
"Next is the number 45 ......"
"I'm finally done choosing, and I'm ready to go home!" Luke cheered.
"Luke, it's your first time in New Jersey, will you go play?" Aaron made another suggestion.
"Old bird, this is the first time you've called me by my name," said Luke, "but I'm not going." β
"If you don't go, I really don't know if you're a man."
"It's not good for your health to go to those places too often. Allen, a star with a perfect body, is the real star, don't waste your time on that. Luke said seriously.
"Okay, okay, I'm not a kid anymore, I know what to do."
"Alright, go back early, Aaron."
"Goodbye, Luke." Aaron ran away. "Goodbye, Aaron."
Luke was the only one left to walk slowly, in fact, he didn't go to the nightclub for another reason, that is- he has no money now!!!!!!
