141, Toronto's Choice

(The first watch, today's third watch.) Ask for favorites and recommended tickets! )

After the birth of the 03 list, the whole United States was boiling, and in the eyes of fans, the one who finally joined the Grizzlies seemed to have the biggest advantage.

As soon as the draft results were born, ESPN, which was in charge of the live broadcast, put the Grizzlies' main lineup for next season in front of everyone.

"Memphis Grizzlies starting prediction for next season: Pau Gasol + Lorenzen Wright + Carmelo Anthony + Sean Battier + Jason Williams, projected main subs: Mike Miller + Staromayer Swift ......"

Pau Gasol, who was able to block 18+8+2 blocks in the first two seasons of his career, 11+7 blue-collar center Lorenzen Wright, defensive titan Sean Battier, and talented playmaker Jason Williams, plus Carmelo Anthony, an offensive kaleidoscope selected now...... It can be said that the Grizzlies' starting lineup is top-notch in the league and an incomparably suitable lineup.

Add to that the scoring prodigy Mike Miller, blue-collar interior Swift and the 13th pick Grizzlies will be the main bench.

Such a Grizzlies lineup seems to be difficult to ignore.

Wu Di was secretly surprised after seeing such a lineup as the Grizzlies, such a lineup can make a difference in the playoffs, and if the reinforcements are appropriate, then the Grizzlies next season can become a talented team that threatens the O'Brien Cup.

Now, Wu Di finally understands why Anthony was happy when James was drafted by the Cavaliers.

You must know that two people have the same physique, the same figure, the same pride of the sky, and the same number three...... So the competition between the two is completely predestined.

And if you think about it carefully, in this year's draft, whoever has a high starting point between the two people will be able to lead each other in a short period of time.

So, it's no wonder that Anthony was happy when he was drafted by the Grizzlies, after all, considering the current mess of the Cavaliers, he is already one step ahead of James in terms of a certain number of ways.

After the two rookies were selected, the next shape seemed to start to be a little confusing.

The entire draft meeting was full of whispered discussions.

Wu Di sat in the back, naturally laughing and chatting with Brian Cook, and the whole person looked very relaxed.

"Speaking of which, the Pistons are really unlucky, and Joe Dumas is a bamboo basket this time. Otherwise, with the current Pistons lineup and Anthony, they are afraid that they can become the championship favorites. Brian Cook chuckled.

"It's just a matter of luck, maybe it's the Memphis Grizzlies. Besides, even if Detroit gets the No. 1 pick, you must think Joe Dumas will choose Anthony? Wu Di had an inexplicable smile on his face, and his eyes flashed with a strange brilliance as he spoke.

When he said this, Wu Di immediately thought of the fact that the Detroit Pistons had always wanted to get a scout from the Raptors. Thinking about this, Wu Di felt ridiculous, this Joe Dumas actually wanted to exchange some rags for the Raptors' draft pick. As a result, Wu Di refused without even thinking about it.

Wu Di thinks that maybe this Joe Dumas can easily get some benefits from the Raptors who have just changed hands, but what he didn't expect is that the real holder of the Raptors is Wu Di, who eliminated them in the playoffs.

Moreover, what Jo Dumas couldn't know was that Wu Di already had the idea of not trading for this Tanhua lottery, so it was impossible for him to succeed.

"Which player do you think the Toronto Raptors will pick?" Brian Cook looked at Wu Di with interest.

Hearing this, Wu Di thought for a moment in Cook's expectant gaze, and then said softly: "I think it should be one of Devon Wade, Chris Bosh or Dacomi Mirisic." ”

Belch?

Brian Cook seemed a little stunned by this answer, and he smiled: "If you were given one pick, you would be able to pick three?" Man, you should have a clear answer. ”

Wu Di smiled faintly and said, "Then Dacomi Mirisic." ”

As Wu Di said the answer, everyone else around him was talking about which player the Toronto Raptors' new general manager would choose.

And when they heard Wu Di say Dacomi Mirisic, there was obvious disdain on their expressions.

And one of the guys sneered at Wu Di and said, "Dacomi Mirisic? God, if you choose that guy, you're done. Well, I really can't trust the guy from Europe, his talent is completely blown out, really, he's not reliable. I think Toronto would choose Chris Bosh...... Chris is good, he's attacking well. ”

For the person who interjected, Wu Di just smiled and did not say much.

Soon, in the midst of this discussion, David Stern once again took to the podium and read out the third selection of the '03 draft.

"Toronto Raptors selected Dakomilicic from Serbia with the third pick in the first round......"

When this voice spread in the draft meeting, the guy who laughed at Wu Di's prediction was stunned, he didn't expect that the Toronto Raptors actually chose Mirisic.

And Brian Cook also looked at Wu Di with a suspicious face at this time, as if he also wanted to know how Wu Di knew that the Raptors would choose Mirisic over others? Is it just speculation?

Soon, the news of Toronto's choice of Mirisic as the flower scout spread around the world, and various comments sprung up.

"Dacomilisic is a genius, he's a talented interior player in 20 years, and more importantly, he's still young, and there's a lot of room for malleability and growth. And his move to the Raptors is a very good opportunity, firstly, the Raptors are interested in developing a future leader-level interior lineman, and secondly, Carter seems to have the idea of going, and Mirisic is fully capable of taking over the Raptors in the future. What's more, he was able to get more opportunities when he went to Toronto. ”

As this evaluation suggests, most people, after seeing this result, think carefully and think that Dacomi Milic may be a better fit for the Raptors.

As a result, many general managers had to re-examine the ability of the new Raptors management decision-makers.

And the most frustrating is the Pistons general manager Joe Dumas, who hoped to get the signing rights of Dacomi Milic from the Raptors after his plan to get the first few picks through the guò trade failed, but when he dialed the phone, he was directly rejected, which made him feel the blow.

……

After the birth of the first three picks, the atmosphere of the draft meeting has entered the proper stage, and everyone present is happy to wait for the draft to be revealed step by step.

Soon, David Stern stepped out from behind the screen, and another result was read out.

"The Denver Nuggets selected Devin Wade from Marquette University with the fourth pick in the first round."

This result surprised the people at the scene, because in advance predictions, Wade, who suffered from height in the No. 2 position, did not have much chance of hitting the top five, and in ESPN's mock draft, Wade was only ranked 13th pick.

But now, the truth is that the Denver Nuggets, who have never shown a crush on Wade, have quietly completed the decision.

Such an unpopular choice made Wu Di secretly admire the person who made this decision for the Denver Nuggets, because Devin Wade is completely one of the two most worthy of selection among all the remaining rookies.

However, the subsequent voice made Wu Di's admiration even stronger, the Miami Heat, who held the fifth pick, actually selected Chris Bosh, this wisdom made Wu Di can't help but wonder if Pat Riley is blind, how can he choose the best one in the rookie evaluation of the remaining five?

"Damn it, Chris Bosh? And not Chris Kaman? It's the same Chris, is there a mistake in the name, assistant, go apply and verify. The general manager of the Clippers frowned, his eyes were fixed on Chris Bosh who was slowly walking up the stage, and he knew in his heart that this was the big man he wanted.

However, he was given a head start by Pat Riley.

He felt a little tricked, because from the information he had, this Pat Riley was the most likely to choose Chris Kaman, but it turned out to be Chris Bosh.

……

After the top-five picks were made, the rest of the draft seemed to be smoothing out.

The Los Angeles Clippers selected Chris Carman with the sixth pick, the Chicago Bulls selected Kirksynridge with the seventh pick, and the Atlanta Hawks selected Michael Sweetney with the eighth pick......

One draft result after another was announced by David Stern.

It is worth mentioning that the Memphis Grizzlies selected French domestic lineman Boris Dior with the thirteenth pick.

To Wu Di's surprise, the Los Angeles Lakers, who held the 24th pick, actually chose Xu Yidong, who was hyped a few days ago.

At this time of the draft, Xu Yidong's personal situation, who had participated in the trial and physical test, was naturally very clearly presented in front of everyone, and Wu Di had also read his information at that time.

Xu Yidong is six feet two inches tall, has a great body, has a very good arm span, is good at defense, and the important thing is that he has a good three-point shot.

And his flaws are also very obvious, his organizational skills are average, and he is not good at physical confrontation.

And he is very inexperienced, although he studied in Europe, but he did not participate in the first division of European countries, which made his draft prospects in this super draft year slim.

However, after the tryout, he was never favored, and suddenly had a second-round prospect.

This once made Wu Di curious about him...... However, now, the Los Angeles Lakers actually selected him with the 24th pick in the first round.
