As the general manager of the 76ers, Sam Cinki rejected the trade requests of the Celtics and Pacers without any hesitation or psychological burden.

The summer of 2013 was his time in office for the 76ers, and after taking over the 76ers, he promised Philadelphia fans that he would welcome back their favorite Iverson.

In the Finals that year, the Lakers' five guards just played James in the Finals and won a historic championship, and the five guards collectively won the FMVP, and Iverson's performance with the Lakers that season was in full swing.

As a rookie general manager with no roots in the NBA, trying to stabilize his position with the 76ers and bring Iverson back would be one of the biggest achievements of his career as a general manager in Philadelphia.

But at that time, the 76ers did not have the chips that the Lakers needed, a super popular FMVP, the value was not only on the court, but also off the court, the team's ratings, the number of live broadcasts in the United States, and the team's ticket revenue, etc., it can be said that as long as Iverson can be invited back, his future in Philadelphia will be stable, and he will definitely not be an excessive general manager of the rebuilding reconstruction.

And just when he racked his brains and didn't know how to trade Iverson back, it was Coach D who took the initiative to find him and was willing to send Iverson back to the 76ers without any chips.

In the previous NBA, everyone loved to do business with Jerry West, no matter what the future holds, doing business with Jerry West will definitely not worry about being cheated by him now.

And Coach D is not worried about whether he will be pitted or not, he is simply sacrificing himself to fulfill others.

Coach D never wants anything in return, but you can't really not be grateful to Coach D.

In the past two seasons, he has been in the 76ers, and the team's record is so bad, but his general manager position is so stable, thanks to Coach D who sent Iverson back, and now everyone's expectation for the 76ers is to see Iverson hit 30,000 points, impact a higher total score, complete career achievements, and don't care about the team's record.

Now, Coach D wants to trade his ninth pick for his fifth pick, and he doesn't hesitate.

Backstab D Coach?

This is impossible.

So, what Danny Angie, what big bird Bird, you all go aside!

Even if Devin Booker sent by Coach D is a piece of Xiang, he can be regarded as completing the repayment of Coach D.

His target for Okafor this year was given to the Bobcats with the fifth pick, and it was impossible to pick Okafor with the ninth pick.

Therefore, the ninth pick was finally handed over to Coach D to choose, and Coach D could choose anyone, he wanted it, and he didn't care.

Even if Devin Booker is a piece of garbage, he should have wasted this No. 5 pick.

At this time, in Charlotte, seeing that Du Kang actually chose Turner with the No. 5 pick from the trade, Jordan felt a little cloudy.

There are already No. 5 picks, and even they can choose Okafor, and in the end, Coach D actually chose Turner, this ......

"Coach D, do you think Okafor is not as good as Turner?"

Looking at the draft that was still going on at this time, Jordan finally asked curiously.

The main thing is to see that the expression on Du Kang's face is slightly tangled and regretful, Jordan thinks that Du Kang regrets because he missed Okafor.

Okafor was the No. 1 high school student that year, and until February of this year, Okafor was also the top pick, a first-day NCAA player.

The reason why Okafor was surpassed by Downs after March Madness is actually not Okafor's own poor performance, Okafor won the final championship with Duke University in March Madness this year, and this is the boss of Duke University, and the Bobcats, now in North Carolina, don't they just need Duke, North Carolina stars to increase popularity and heritage?

That's why he used to pick Duke and North Carolina stars in previous drafts.

In Jordan's opinion, Okafor is really a perfect choice.

There's strength, there's potential, and there's North Carolina blood.

It's just a little bit of a problem is that it's too soft, which is why Okafor was finally surpassed by Downs, in this year's NCAA Championship Finals, as a Duke player, Okafor as an interior center, no rebounds and no blocks, was blown up by Wisconsin's Frank Kaminsky, and Kaminsky is also his favorite player in this draft, if Coach D does not intervene, he will most likely choose Kaminski.

won the NCAA championship, but the draft prospects declined, because Okafor was too soft, and if it weren't for Duke's super sixth Grayson Allen who scored 16 points off the bench, Duke would have overturned.

There is no harm if there is no comparison, also facing Kaminsky, although he lost to Wisconsin in the semifinals, but Downs of the University of Kentucky, facing Kaminsky, played very well, although he lost to Kaminsky, the strongest center in the NCAA, but the performance was not bad, basically barely five or five, compared with Okafor's explosion, Downs is indeed more outstanding.

Kaminski, a senior top player and the No. 1 center in the NCAA, has become the strongest litmus test, testing the strength of Towns and Okafor, who are also freshmen.

It's just that even if Okafor is not as good as Downs, Okafor's talent is also the top two in this class.

If it was a choice between Willie Cauleystein and Turner, Turner might be the fine.

But if it is a choice between Okafor and Turner, there is no need to hesitate at all, and a fool will choose Okafor.

And Coach D, the choice is Turner......

So, at this time, the commentary on TV was frantically discussing why Coach D would end up choosing Turner instead of Okafor with the No. 5 pick that came in the trade.

They were puzzled that if it was just for Turner, they wouldn't need to trade the No. 5 pick to the 76ers at all, and the Bobcats' own No. 9 pick would be enough.

"I can't understand it at all, I can't understand Coach D's operation at all!"

Therefore, even though Coach D's draft results in the NBA are already so strong, he is still ridiculed by many fans on the Internet at this time.

"I just said that the reason why Coach D has never been a pit in the draft is not because he has excellent vision, but because of his excellent ability to develop players, Jokic is rubbish, but he has been trained to be a super organization center, so parallel goods have become worthy of the name.

Antetokounmpo is also the garbage that everyone can see, and the reason why he was selected as an All-Star in the end and was able to play in the NBA far beyond his draft pick is also because of the training of Coach D.

And Seth Curry, Ibanks, McCarvey, which of these players is not such a player?

Even the most obvious are Ibanks and Oden, who are all garbage and high-ranking parallel goods in the hands of other head coaches, but in the hands of Coach D, they all take off, and you can't give credit to the coach and general manager who selected these two people in the draft, right? They were able to take off, of course, thanks to Coach D's ability to develop players! ”

"So, Coach D messes around in the draft, let's just taunt and don't worry about being slapped in the face, because Coach D is really messing around in the draft!"

"As a D honey, I think what you said is very right, don't Wiggins want Kic, don't want Okafor to Turner, Coach D is messing around, but, there is the strongest ability to develop players in NBA history, even if Coach D is messing around, no one can do anything with him, if Michael Jordan also has the ability to develop players like Coach D, maybe we are also worshipping Michael Jordan's draft ability now, hahahaha......"

Looking at the crazy ridicule of the operation of the Du Kang draft on the Internet at this time, in fact, the most panicked person is the general manager of the 76ers, Xinki.

"Alas, I knew that I would pick a hot rookie at random......"

Why did he get so caught up in asking Coach D to help him choose one!

Can Coach D develop Jokic, can he develop players like Seth Curry, McCarvey, Antetokounmpo, can he and other teams?

He has no doubt at all that Devin Booker can also play in the hands of Coach D and can also train to take off, but, in the 76ers, can Devin Booker still take off?

He really didn't believe it at all.

Devin Booker He has also investigated, static talent is not good, dynamic talent is also average, because it is the second generation of stars, so the technique is good, but, in the NBA, young people have always looked at talent, not technology.

I knew that I shouldn't have pretended to be in front of Coach D in the first place, and I wanted to say whatever you wanted, even if it was a piece of garbage, and I would treat this pick as a gift from me to your tenure with the Bobcats.

How cool it was to pretend to be a beep in front of Coach D at that time, and how painful my heart is now.

How did he forget that Coach D's real cowhide was not the ability to draft, but the ability to cultivate?

"Sam, if you don't think Devin Booker is suitable, I can take Devin Booker to Coach D for training."

Well?

Xinki was stunned for a moment, looked at Iverson beside him, and didn't react for a while.

Then after reacting, Xinki's whole person became excited.

"Allen, can you bring Embiid with you?!"

“……”

Now it was Iverson's turn to be silent.

Do you want to bring all the players of the 76ers with you?

It's good that I can take a player to coach D for training.

However, looking at the expectant look on Xinki's face at this time, Iverson still didn't squirt out in the end.

changed to the self before leaving the 76ers, and now he has already begun to shake his face.

Even before he went to the Lakers, he had already thrown his face directly.

But now, Iverson knew he had matured.

Next season he is the head coach of the team, and with Coach D and the Lakers, he has not only regained his former strength and glory, but also learned to be tactful.

After leaving the Lakers, in the past few years, no one has said that he is difficult to contact, difficult to interview, and difficult to communicate.

Embiid's rookie season has been lying for a year, and the 76ers are also drumming for this little Yao Ming, which is why the 76ers want to get Okafor, want to have an alternative to Embiid, or simply replace Embiid with Okafor.

In the NBA, it is not so easy for a young player to lie down for a year and still want to rise again.

Back to Du Kang.

"Michael, it's not that I didn't get Okafor, it's a pity that I sent away a very good defender."

"Devin Booker?"

Jordan's eyes widened, and Dukang nodded.

According to the system's draft simulation, Devin Booker is ranked first, which means that the real strongest rookie this time is not Okafor or Downs, but Devin Booker.

It's just a pity that Devin Booker is not the player the Bobcats need.

And among the players that the Bobcats need, after comparing the Scouting reports of the Bobcats, according to the rankings, the most suitable is Turner.

Moreover, Turner's system simulates a draft ranking above Okafor.

However, although there is no rookie who can get the first rookie in this class, and it is possible to get it, it is a pity that I can't get it.

It's just that this collector's habit has not been satisfied.

In the case that Devin Booker and Turner can only choose one, of course, it is appropriate to choose Turner.

Now the Bobcats have one draft pick left, the ninth pick in the second round.

Now that the Bobcats have picked an interior lineman, is it left to pick a forward or a point guard?

It's a draft year for interior and forward, and there aren't as many good point guards.

Therefore, Du Kang took a look at the system's mock draft and gave up the idea of selecting a point guard.

It's still the front line.

If you can take care of the defense of the back line, it is the best.

Although Du Kang has watched the system's mock draft many times, and there were some candidates before, the draft has been going on, and many people are being selected.

So, a lot of the choices are actually dynamic.

However, there was one person who was not selected all the time.

I don't know if it's lucky, this person is still Du Kang's first candidate.

The ranking of the simulated draft is very high, and the players in the lottery area, that is to say, the players with the top fourteen picks in this session.

The position is a swing man, the weight of a small forward, and the skill of a scoring guard, but his height is only 1.93 meters, which is the height of a high point guard.

With such height, defending Paul and a small point guard like Curry should not suffer so much.

What's the most critical?

The most important thing is that this one is still his apprentice, and he personally taught him when he was at UCLA University.

This is a proper person of his own.

Moreover, his prediction of draft pick is not high, and few people know about his excellence except for familiar people.

So, even if the Bobcats only have a 39th pick, it's enough to pick him.

"Du, don't we really need to trade upwards now?"

"Now a lot of people are already eyeing us, and with a little bit of action, smart people can guess who we want."

Looking at Du Kang's appearance at this time, Jordan nodded sneeringly.

He never thought that there would be so many doorways in the draft, and this time, it was really a big lesson!

Dukang's guess was correct, and now that Danny Ange, Big Bird is indeed eyeing Dukang and the Lakers.

"The bobcat didn't make any movement!"

"Coach D doesn't have an upward trading move!"

Without the action of trading upwards, it is impossible to determine which region Coach D wants to pick, and there is no way to snipe the players that Coach D wants based on Coach D's preferences.

The Bobcats still have 39 picks, and you can't pick all the players behind the 39 picks.

So, Coach D doesn't move, they really can't snipe if they want to.

"In the 2015 NBA Draft, the 9th pick in the second round, the Bobcats selected Norman Powell from UCLA University!!"

It's him?!!!

Danny Angie and Larry Bird instantly felt as if they had lost 100 million!

I regret it!!
