Chapter 467: Draft, 15 Picks + 30 Picks, Knicks Pick! Wang Zhelin!
The league is still smart, just 2 days after the abolition of the salary cap, the draft conference came as scheduled. Glue
David Stern really went to great lengths to keep the NBA hot going.
Because the Olympics are coming up, and NBA players going to participate in it will cause a lot of heat, so he doesn't have to worry about it, so he can go home fishing after the draft.
Of course, there is also a migrant worker who has also been used by the alliance, and now Durant's trumpet is still in the forum regretting why he didn't cancel the salary cap to bring the rhythm.
He told the truth that he was the only true faith in this circle that could be implemented, and if he went to the Knicks, how easy would he be able to play!
In the previous lottery meeting, the Knicks drew the No. 30 pick in the first round without any accidents, so this draft Knicks drew the No. 30 pick in the first round and the No. 60 pick in the second round.
There is no difference between the No. 60 pick in the second round and the undrafted pick.
Because there's no one behind you to grab your players. Glue
But!
Because of the trade with the Warriors in the middle of last season, Thompson + Knicks Thomas Jr. + David Lee who were signed in the first round of the Warriors in 12.
Therefore, the Knicks still have the No. 15 pick and 3 picks this year, which is very cool.
But to be honest, Jiang Chao doesn't have any choice, the main thing is casual.
There is nothing special to Taobao this year, and the combat effectiveness is like this in his heart.
1. Davis, this year's top pick, oh no, it's definitely the top pick.
The Pelicans held the No. 1 pick and selected the talented big man Anthony Davis, and this year was not a draft year, so Davis was almost the only one of all draft players, more precisely, the draft players that year can be divided into two categories: Bun
One is Anthony Davis, and the other is the other rookies!
2: Cousin Lillard, as the 6th pick in the first round of the 2012 draft, Jiang Chao will definitely not be able to grab it this year.
This year, the Bobcats, who hold the list of eye signs, selected McKeggie under the "discerning eye" of Jordan, and after several seasons of verification, it has once again proved that Jordan, who plays like a god, is really a devil in the draft.
The Trail Blazers, who held the No. 6 pick, were lucky to select Lillard, in later generations, Lillard was already a top 20 star in the league, under his leadership, the Trail Blazers entered the Western Conference finals, this rookie, with individual performance alone, Lillard rose to the second pick, and deservedly!
3: The third place is actually Jiang Chao hovering in Bradley Beal and Dream Chasing Green, but if you look at career achievements, Dream Chasing Green is still better.
Who would have thought that the short interior lineman, who was selected at the 35th pick in the second round, would become an important contributor to the Warriors' winning 3 championships in 5 years, and even, Dream Green has now become a phenomenal No. 4 player in the league.
So it's good to have him. Glue
4th Pick: Bradley Beal (Original Pick: 3)
Beal grew into an All-Star player in later life, and his average of 25+5+5 per game is also eye-catching, and he is a very good scorer.
Fifth place: Middleton, as the 9th pick in the second round of the 2012 draft, he later became the second scorer of the Bucks, the original pick: 39 is more reflective of his inspiration, but Jiang Chao will not Taobao choose him, because his defense is a weak ring, and the Knicks are not short of ball-handling attackers like him, you can Taobao him if you have the opportunity, and you can sell it in the future, but the Knicks don't have so many opportunities to give newcomers, and they still need blue-collar workers.
6th pick: Drummond (original pick: 9), averaging 14.1 points, 13.7 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.6 blocks per game, Zhuang Shen is an inside beast and rebounding machine.
7th pick: Harris Barnes (original pick: 7), Barnes's pick has not changed, he still remains seventh, and his performance, in this rookie, is also fully worthy of this pick, especially the Warriors' 14-15 season championship, he contributed a lot!
He is also Danny Green's apprentice, North Carolina Black Hawks,
Frontline defensive giant, if you can choose this, it's okay.
The other rookies this year are actually very ordinary, they are all very ordinary role players in the future, and they have a slight ranking in Jiang Chao's mind: Glutinous
8th Pick: Jack Crowder (Original Pick: 34)
9th Pick: Terrence Ross (Original Pick: 8)
10th Pick: McGee (Original Pick: 2)
11th Pick: Fournier (Original Pick: 20)
12th Pick: Will Barton (Original Pick: 40)
13th Pick: Lamb (Former Pick: 12)
14th pick: Vitesse (original pick: 4)
15th Pick: Bazemore (Original Pick: Undrafted)
.............
If memory serves, this year's Rookie of the Year is Damian Lillard, who averaged 19 points, 6.5 assists, 3.1 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks in 38.6 minutes per game.
And the best team is what he mentioned above, but there is one more Vitesse, this year Vitesse is really strong in his life, averaging 14.7 points, 2.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 steals, and 0.3 blocks per game.
In Jiang Chao's opinion, compared with previous years, the range of players he can get is very ordinary.
Just kidding, let's see what famous players he selected in 09, 10, and 11.
09 Kuha as a representative, 10 George Hayward. Glue
In 11 years, Butler Thomas Jr. and later moved to Thompson......
In fact, this year, apart from AD, there is not even a player as tall as Thomas Jr.!
........
But in the eyes of the rest of the league, this year is a terrible one, and it is definitely possible to do something with the salary cap rising by 10 million.
But it's not going to be with the Knicks, the Knicks are too scary.
You can trade players with the Knicks, but don't trade draft picks with the Knicks at the draft, just look at Harden, Curry, and George after swapping draft picks with the Pacers......
To this day, the Timberwolves in '09 are still being scolded. Glue
With Curry and Harden, you can choose whether you want it or not.
Rubio and Flynn were chosen......... The most smelly operation in history, the smelly !!
But it's okay, Jiang Chao waited to drop the peach.
He didn't go to the draft meeting either, it was boring, Buddhism.
The Knicks may be the most Buddhist season next season, because they are all under child labor contracts, and 14 years is the stage where the 09 batch of contracts expires and will be a headache, and it is still very comfortable.
And in his previous life, Barnes was chosen by the Warriors, so maybe he fell???
Anyway, Sean Marks also took a fancy to the North Carolina Black Hawks, a 2.03-meter, full-sized forward weighing 95 kilograms, so think about it. Glue
It's too much in line with the five-forward line and five-small lineup that Jiang Chao and the young marshal want to build.
Luck did explode this year, and sure enough, no one chose Barnes with the 15th pick, and the Warriors didn't have a first-round pick to choose, so the Knicks successfully chose Harrison Barnes from the University of North Carolina!!
is also one of the five little deaths, Danny Green, a junior of Danny Green, and it is perfect to pair with Curry and Thompson.
The North Carolina Black Hawks themselves are also very happy, just kidding, being able to play on Senior Danny Green's team and work with the Chaoshen Group is perfect, okay!!
It's an honor to be picked by the Knicks anyway!!
Then the 30th pick was chosen Dream Green, a 198-tall forward from Michigan State University.
Don't look at his height, but he weighs 104KG and plays as a power forward, and can even play as a center. Glue
During the 2011-12 season, Green averaged 16.2 points, 10.6 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game to lead the Michigan Spartans to the Big Ten Division.
So it's still a very strong kind of player who combines offense and defense, and of course, that's just in college.
The reason why he fell to the 30th pick was because of his offensive performance during the tryout and friendly games against the NBA team, shooting 37-of-50 from three-point range in training and 8 points and 7 assists in charity games......
It shows that such a player does not seem to fit the rhythm of the NBA, and his commendable confrontation is not worth much in the NBA.
Therefore, the Knicks' choice was dismissed, and of course, everyone guessed that Jiang Chao would not pay attention to it this year.
The Knicks are already full of more signings, and there is no way to train new players at all.
So that's why a lot of teams trade draft picks appropriately, if you pick 2 rookies every year, then the rookies will be overcrowded in 3 years, because you can't pick all the rookies you pick are veterans, and there are second- and third-year rookies traded by other teams or something. Glue
After Dream Chaser Green was selected, he roared wildly on the spot, and was selected by the whistle at the end of the first round, and the excitement and excitement can be imagined.
In the post-game interview, Dream Chaser said directly:
"I'm going to have my name next season, no, the summer league will let the world hear my name!!!
The forum was also mixed.
Some say that they finally chose an inside line, and some say that the inside line is an inside line, but this is too short.
There is also a saying that Dream Green is not suitable for the NBA or something.
Jiang Chao doesn't care, you must know that he casually gathered 4 of the five warriors who died??? Glue
Curry + Thompson + Dream + Barnes !!
This.......
These four people are so strong that they fly, and the chemistry is very explosive.
And the rest of Iguodala Jiang Chao will definitely not collect Dragon Balls like that.
In his opinion, George, Hayward, and Jimmy Butler can replace the role of a brother, and they can defend themselves with a cold arrow, and there are a bunch of alternatives in the Knicks team, and Ibaka, who will practice shooting in the future, can also be perfectly adapted.
Jiang Chao thinks a lot at this moment, and there is also a person who has crossed over to know that he has achieved the scene of collecting the four small scenes of the champion of the later generations and the brave death, what a casual and simple thing it is!!
The 30th pick in the second round doesn't matter, this signing is equivalent to losing the draft, it's useless, Jiang Chao also made a favor to help sign a domestic contract. Glue
The 30th pick in the second round chose the CBA star Wang Zhelin, who was still sleeping at home, but he didn't make any waves, and the fans also acquiesced to the Knicks opening a back door for Chinese players.
Because no one will grab you behind these 30 picks, you can sign other undrafted picks if you want to, and the 2 rounds of 30 picks also sound good, I have been selected by the NBA.
However, Wang Zhelin in this life was not surprised, but was excited by the agent's phone call in bed on the spot:
"I'm xxxxxx, it's awesome!!
The domestic basketball forum also brushed a sentence:
"If God doesn't give birth to me Jiang Chao, Chinese basketball is like a long night!"
Regardless of whether the Knicks will really use this Wang Zhelin in the future, at least the Knicks' choice has made the world pay attention to Wang Zhelin as a player. Glue
North Carolina Black Hawk Barnes and Dream Green naturally signed a five-year rookie contract, and the Knicks have the old rules, once the rookie is signed, it will be five years, and you are not afraid that you will not be able to play.
Wang Zhelin was called by Downey Jr. and was stocked for 1 year, but there was a verbal promise that if Wang Zhelin led the Fujian team to win the CBA championship next season, he would immediately give him a two-way contract.
This can be regarded as a motivation for the king.
The '12 draft ended there.
............
Then it's time for the teams to show off their talents, and as we all know, the free market is buzzing when the draft is over.
This is what the fans are looking forward to the most, and compared to the rookies who have not yet won the lottery, the changes in the stars are the most noteworthy. Glue
Although it is impossible for the Knicks to make any more moves, they will always pay attention to whether there is any strong team to strengthen, and it is normal for the strong team to strengthen under the influence of a slight price increase.
The first is the movement of the big fish.
Although I got it
Anthony Davis, but the Hornets have already decided to fire Paul to rebuild, so the Hornets did not choose to extend his contract with a maximum salary.
Instead, the Clippers paid the price for next year's draft pick, signing first and then trading Paul to the Los Angeles Clippers.
The contract amount is $107 million for 5 years!
The next five-year, 95 million Griffin signed a contract extension with the Clippers, and Griffin played in all 82 games last season, averaging 20.7 points and 10.9 rebounds per game.
So the Los Angeles Clippers have really become a galactic battleship this time. Glue
The fans' complaint is: "Now the king of Los Angeles is really going to change hands."
"The biggest earthquake in the free market!! Paul is on his way to Los Angeles!! But not the Lakers! 「
"Hahahahahaha!! Griffin, the man who was named the champion in '09, can he stand up!!"
The Lakers management was scolded by the fans, and it didn't matter if Paul didn't get it, and he was also picked up by the Clippers, a team in the same city???
In Jiang Chao's view, it is true that the Lakers' record has been overtaken by the Clippers since this year, and Los Angeles also has another name: the empty city.
But this is not a threat to Jiang Chao's Knicks at all, because Paul is a man who comes with a buff that can't touch the floor of the West Finals.
And Jiang Chao participated in the action of raising the price of Hibbert. Glue
Like the Knicks, the Trail Blazers are also involved in the price increase.
In the end, Big Bird Bird matched the offer with a big wave of his hand.
[Pacers match Trail Blazers offer 58 million for four years to keep Hibbert] Hibbert, 25 years old, averaged 12.8 points, 8.8 rebounds and two blocks per game last season, and helped the team reach the Eastern Conference semifinals.
The combination of him and Cousins made the Indians look very comfortable, and the Indians now have a slogan: Recast the glory of the twin towers, it is incumbent on the Indiana Pacers!!
Then the value of other middle-class ordinary players has risen, the Bucks and Ilyasova reached a 5-year 45 million contract, and the Turks can get a 9 million one-year contract with an average of 9 points and 6 rebounds per game, and the salary cap has risen this year, which was impossible 1 year ago.
You must know that the Knicks' David Lee only renewed his contract for 7.8 million the year before last.
Then the Green Army star Ray Allen wandered between the Spurs and the Heat, in Jiang Chao's opinion, there is a high probability that the middle class will join the Spurs, because the Heat are going to meet the Knicks in advance, and Ray Allen doesn't want to be dominated by the Knicks anymore, so it is better to rush out of the West first????? Glue
Although Pierce and Garnett both broke off their diplomatic relations with Ray Allen in writing, judging from the internal information received by Jiang Chao, the gentleman Lei left decently, because he was not in it for money.
Instead, he purely felt that the Big Three couldn't go far, and he should be scattered, so he would take the lead.
According to the Knicks grapevine, Heat owner Harrison is likely to offer Allen a three-year, $9.5 million contract, which is far lower than the Celtics' two-year, $12 million plus trade veto offer.
Veterans don't die!
It didn't wither.
While everyone lamented that this year was a season of rising recruits, the Mavericks still renewed Kidd's contract.
[Expose Kidd's 3-year 9 million contract with the Mavericks]
According to ESPN, Jason Kidd will sign a three-year, $9 million contract with the Mavericks.
Although the agreement has not yet been reached, the two sides are close, which also means that Kidd will have to fight in the league until he is 42 years old.
If he had played at the age of 42, Kidd would have been the "oldest" player in the active team at that time.
In order to cope with the departure of veterans, Celtic's president Anji also signed a good player from last year in time.
3 years 20 million, Celtic reached an agreement with Bath.
Last season, Buss averaged 12.5 points and 6.2 rebounds in 31.7 minutes per game, both of which set career highs. In addition, Buss shot 47.9 percent from the field.
And Buss played the Knicks very well, but at that time it was the stage when the Knicks were not in the blue. Glue
Boss Cai naturally called Jiang Chao after the salary cap turmoil, one was to ask about the draft, Jiang Chao didn't answer at that time, who didn't have some temper???
That's when he took it, because he knew that the Nets were going to form a Big Three.
But this time it's not the garbage last year Big Five like in the previous life, but the Big Three who are a bit of a peak.
That is to hollow out all the Deron and Hawk Johnson, Pierce, Garnett, and Lopez that the Nets have gotten in the future...... One of Joe Johnson signed over, directly with 3 salaries in the team, against the Heat!!
This is the arms race in the big ball city, and it's okay to pay a little luxury tax!!
But at least we're All-Stars at the point guard, and at the forward and center positions!!
[Hawks Nets reach trade agreement, Hawk King Johnson will go to Brooklyn] The Hawks have reached a trade agreement with the Nets, and "Hawk King" Joe Johnson will go to Brooklyn. Glue
The Nets are sending away chips from guards Anthony Morrow, Jordan Farmar and DeSean Stevenson and forwards Jordan Williams, Johan Petrolo and a lottery-protected draft pick from the Rockets!!
Fans shouted in the forum:
"This is the operation of the big ball market!! The four teams in Los Angeles and New York will look good next year!!"
"yes, so it's good that the pay cap hasn't been canceled, so the Knicks can't operate."
"It's true that the Knicks have been a stagnant pool in free agency this year, but they also have a player whose contract has expired."
