Chapter 1,115 Jerry West Was Blinded in the Draft!

On the evening of June 24, 2010, reporters gathered at the draft at Madison Square Garden in New York.

"It's hard to imagine that there will be so many current star players in the NBA draft!"

"Kobe, Anthony, Howard, Chris Paul, Derrick Rose... Look, Yes! Next to Yes is Yao Ming. Even Yao Ming is here. Yao Ming is here with Yes. This is a hint that Yao Ming has chosen the Seattle SuperSonics. Yet?!"

When entering the venue, these reporters from all over the United States were amazed when they saw the star players appearing at the draft.

Especially when I saw Ye Si and Yao Ming appear at the end, the whole venue seemed to explode.

At this time, Ye Si and Yao Ming appeared together, which really made people daydream and raise eyebrows.

Kobe, Tracy McGrady, Anthony, Nowitzki and Duncan had expressions of surprise on their faces and that's what they should be.

The faces of LeBron James, Chris Paul and others are not so pretty.

"Yes, is Yao Ming now confirmed to join the Seattle SuperSonics?"

"Yao, have you made a decision now?"

"Yes, Yao, are you already thinking about how to work together next season?"

Today is the NBA draft, and today's protagonists should be these NBA rookies. However, with the appearance of Ye Si and Yao Ming, the direction of the entire draft seems to have been deflected.

In fact, there was no deflection. The protagonists of today's draft are indeed these rookies, but the reason why so many star players are attracted here tonight is definitely not just because of the draft.

Rather, the fate of these stars next season is closely related to this draft.

After Ye Si and Yao Ming arrived at the scene, they were a little surprised when they saw that the small green room that was supposed to be quite crowded was now crowded.

Ye Si originally didn't want to answer these people's questions, but seeing the craziness of these people, the crowding of the little green room, and the sideways glances of everyone in the little green room, he knew that if he and Yao Ming didn't say anything, they would It will make the entire draft become a sneak peek and speculation about him and Yao Ming.

And just when Ye Si was about to refute the rumors...

"Yes and I didn't come to the draft to announce anything. I will not be a player for the Seattle SuperSonics next season. We have no plans to work together in the NBA for the time being. This time we are here to support Avery, who He’s a good kid.”

Ye Si looked at Yao Ming who was smiling at this time, and then nodded: "The Seattle SuperSonics have never thought about getting anyone. Seattle now has a player they are looking forward to getting, and this person has never been Yao Ming."

Ye Si looked towards the table at the front of the small green room. After noticing Ye Si's gaze, James, who had a dark face, turned his head away the moment he looked at Ye Si. He didn't dare to look at her, feeling a little ashamed.

The player Yes said he has always wanted to get is me, right?

But I let go of Yes.

Thinking about last season, Yes kept saying that he expected him to leave the Heat, James also sighed.

If not for various reasons, it would indeed be the best choice for him to go to the Seattle SuperSonics next season.

Evan Turner, who was sitting at the same table as James, looked at the shameful look on James' face, and then looked at Yes, who had walked to the table next to him, and understood instantly.

Not only did he understand it instantly, but everyone present understood it instantly.

James must have promised Yes something. In the end, James broke his promise and let Yes go. James was ashamed and Yes was resentful.

Not only the star players at the scene, but also the rookie reporters and Wade in front of the TV understood it instantly. However, Wade's face was not so pretty.

James was squeezed out by him and did not go to the Sonics. He did not expect it at all.

Damn it, if you don’t go to Supersonics, I’ll try my best to squeeze the hair out of you!

When James decided to return to the Cavaliers,

Wade feels like a fool!

Although James has not yet announced his return to the Cavaliers, the whole world knows that it is only a matter of time before he returns to the Cavaliers. It depends on when the Cavaliers can get the players he needs.

With the chips the Cavaliers have now, is it difficult to find the players James needs?

It's not difficult at all!

Of course, regardless of the grievances between Ye Si and James, for these star players on the scene, as long as Ye Si and James, Ye Si and Yao Ming do not pair up, they are happy.

This year's draft is crowded, and the crowding here doesn't mean the number of rookies in the little green room.

There are a total of sixteen round tables and sixteen rookies in the little green room in this year's draft.

"Yes No. 2", University of Washington guard Avery Bradley.

"Breaking Rondo," Kentucky guard John Wall.

"Maddie II", Ohio State swingman Evan Turner.

"Snake Man", Georgia Tech insider Derek Favors.

"Smile Killer" Syracuse University small forward, Wesley Johnson

"The roaring man", the center of the University of Kentucky, DeMarcus Cousins.

These are the top six prospects in this draft.

In addition to these six popular prospects, there are ten other lottery-level prospects.

"Clone McGrady", Paul George.

"Skywalker", Luke Babbitt

"New Divac", Greg Monroe

"Black Space Easy", Ed Davis.

"The Great White Wall," Cole Aldridge.

"Re-enactment of Bird", Gordon Hayward.

"Left Hand Arrow", Javier Henry

"Motion Alien", Aminu.

"Steel Gorge", Patrick Patterson

"Little Camby" Hassan Whiteside

Compared with the past, the number of this year's sixteen lottery picks is actually average, not as good as the more than twenty or thirty that Ye Si produced in the 2007 class.

The key is to look at the NBA star players sitting around these rookie round tables.

In addition to their family members, at each table sat a star player who came to cheer them on.

Everyone knows the purpose of these NBA star players coming here, but of course they are not really cheering for them.

After Ye Si sat down, he looked at Anthony who was accompanying his junior Wesley Johnson on the other side.

Anthony came here to see who he would end up with.

Teams in New York, Los Angeles and Seattle are already frantically gathering chips for him, but Anthony's speech does not necessarily stop other teams from pursuing him.

Not only was he nervous, Ye Si knew that his team's trading genius, General Manager Presti, was also nervous. This was the first time he had conducted such a complicated transaction, and his hands were shaking and his feet were frivolous.

There was also Chris Paul. Yes looked over to Aminu. Paul was sitting at the table with his Wake Forest University student Aminu. After Yes came in, Chris Paul's face had been looking ugly.

Recent news has made it obvious to everyone why Chris Paul is like this.

Originally, the Lakers were eager to pursue him, but after Anthony joined the trade market, the Lakers became fully committed to pursuing Anthony.

No way, are the chips for trading Anthony and Chris Paul the same?

Of course it’s different!

The Nuggets and Thunder have different needs.

The Lakers are frantically exchanging chips, and all of these chips are for Anthony. So what should Chris Paul do?

It can be said that Chris Paul himself also feels that he is getting further and further away from the Lakers.

In fact, it is getting farther and farther away from all the big cities.

New York and Los Angeles are also the big cities he wants to go to, completely overlapping with Anthony.

And all these big cities seemed to have given up on him and chosen Anthony.

If he goes to another team, he might as well stay in Goose City, but now that he's doing this, how can he stay in Goose City?

The fans don't care, but what about his teammates?

Fans understand, but teammates don't understand. As captain, we are all young players. If you jump ship like this, you are looking down on our future!

This leaves Chris Paul in a bit of a dilemma.

And all of this was caused by Anthony.

Can't you fucking announce it later? !

Can't you fucking say that you won't renew the contract when it starts on July 1st? !

Is it really fun to crash with me and run over me?

This is the back thorn of Hongguoguo.

Although we are no longer brothers, is it really okay for you to stab me in the back again and again?

Ye Si's eyes kept scanning the star players present.

As the draft time approaches, not only these NBA stars are nervous, but these rookies are also starting to get nervous.

The trade market is in chaos now, so how can the draft market not be?

With Anthony entering the trade market, each of them may become a bargaining chip in the transaction!

Even Avery Bradley, this year's well-deserved No. 1 pick, may also become a bargaining chip for Anthony's deal.

If the Cavaliers want to get Anthony, if the Nuggets want Avery Bradley, this is a rookie who can be traded for Anthony alone.

"This year's draft is definitely the most bizarre draft in NBA history."

Reporters on the sidelines were whispering.

Avery Bradley's hands were now tightly clasped together.

“Am I really going to Cleveland?!”

"Is it true that fate cannot be changed?!"

Bradley is extremely nervous now. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most nervous rookie in this draft.

If Anthony has not announced his entry into the trade market, he has decided to go to Cleveland.

He was less nervous.

But as Anthony joins the market, his fate may change.

Seeing Bradley like this, Yao Ming was dumbfounded.

He didn't even know why these Americans rejected Cleveland so much.

He has been to Cleveland many times. Although it is not as good as those super big cities, it is still a good city and the environment is very good.

In fact, this is a city that is quite in line with Chinese aesthetics. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and is lush and green.

It's just that this is his idea, not the idea of ​​these Americans.

Now many people are waiting for their fate to be judged.

And in such a tense atmosphere, David Stern walked out amidst the boos of the New York fans.

In the past, David Stern had always smiled in response to such boos from New York fans.

But tonight, I don’t know if it was Ye Si’s illusion. Ye Si didn’t see that bright smile on David Stern’s face. David Stern’s face also had the words “Little Green” written on it. The stars in the room were equally nervous.

Of course, after being slightly surprised, Ye Si could understand.

Anthony's end means that there may be an even more evil dragon in the NBA.

What's more, Anthony is more than just a player who could cause a giant evil dragon to the team this year.

Now it's understandable that David Stern is as nervous as the guys in the little green room.

Isn't Ye Si's mood very complicated now?

Although the players involved, such as Milicic, Millsap and even Ibaka and Gasol, have expressed their willingness to be traded for the team to get Anthony, for them, success or leaving him after establishing a foothold in the NBA The Sonics are also a possible upside opportunity for them.

However, this is the first time in his career that he has encountered such a large-scale change of close teammates.

Therefore, Ye Si's mood now is quite complicated.

As far as the team is concerned, getting Anthony is a very good choice. As far as teammates are concerned, if they stay in the SuperSonics, they can only be the third and fourth sons, but if they go to other teams, they may be the boss, regardless of whether the boss succeeds or fails. , but he is also the boss. There are only 30 teams in one league. This is a rare experience and a rare opportunity. The temptation of being the boss of the team is still great.

Of course, it's not just the boss. As long as the players can go to other teams to complete their class jump, there will be temptation. The status of the boss, second, third, fourth or role player in the team is completely different.

Therefore, for these Sonics players, they are willing to stay, but if the team trades them and gives them a good way out, they are also willing.

Ye Si believes that Milicic must be reluctant to give up now, but he is also looking forward to becoming the team leader.

This is a rather complicated mood.

Of course, in this Anthony trade war, it is difficult to say whether the Sonics will be the final winner.

There's definitely a war going on in the general managers' offices of each team right now.

Yeas is not sure about the final result. It all depends on the team's trading genius, General Manager Presti.

Of course, for Leafs, whether the Anthony battle will be successful depends on whether the No. 4 pick obtained by the Spurs from the Charlotte Hornets ultimately selects the player the Nuggets need.

If this is the player the Nuggets need, then obviously the Anthony trade was successful.

If it's not the player the Nuggets need, it means the deal failed.

Therefore, although Ye Si is not nervous now, he is still waiting for the result with extremely complicated emotions.

At this moment, David Stern, who came out with a nervous and uneasy mood, ended his speech and took out the first envelope.

"In the first round of the 2010 NBA draft, with the first pick, the Cleveland Cavaliers selected guard Avery Bradley from the University of Washington!"

There is no unexpected choice. Whether the Cavaliers trade Bradley or keep Bradley, the number one pick can only be Bradley.

So he was selected with the No. 1 pick, and the expression on Bradley's face is still not despairing, because he also knows that this is just the beginning.

However, what surprised Bradley a little was that after he was selected by Cleveland, James next to him actually stood up and hugged him.

"Congratulations, you are well-deserved champion."

James' hug scared Bradley so much that he almost peed.

He was really afraid that when James hugged him, he would say: Welcome to Cleveland.

Hearing this, Bradley didn't pee in fear, but he also felt a lot heavier.

Because he knew very well that when James stood up and hugged him, he was prepared with both hands.

He can now be convinced that the Cleveland Cavaliers are indeed trading him, and if the trade does not go out, Cleveland is willing to keep him.

That's why James showed his kindness with unclear purpose in the first place.

The position where James hugged Bradley was very close to Yes, and of course Yes could hear it clearly.

"It seems that the battle behind is very fierce."

After Yao Ming finished speaking, Ye Si nodded.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have indeed joined the battle for Anthony!

Ye Si knows very well that with Anthony's character, if the Cavaliers pay a huge price to get him, he will never break out of the contract next year and will definitely play with James for two years. Anthony will be 28 years old in two years. By that time, what will happen to him? It's hard to say whether money and brothers are more important or the city is more important.

Therefore, after Anthony's declaration not to go to big cities, only knights in small cities have the qualification to ignore this declaration.

The Cavaliers have also joined the battle for Anthony, which means the situation becomes more complicated.

Now Yes is paying attention to the situation behind him, and David Stern in the stands is also worried about the situation behind him.

And the draft is still going on.

"In the 2010 NBA draft, in the first round, with the second overall pick, the Los Angeles Clippers selected Cousins ​​from the University of Kentucky!"

Cousins? !

Clippers not selecting John Wall? !

For a while, John Wall and Cousins, college teammates, were a little confused.

"The Clippers really want to keep Westbrook and resist the pressure from fans and not trade?!"

The first breaking point of the draft was born.

There was some uproar at the scene for a while.

Cousins ​​has never been a top draft pick, a top-six prospect, but Willis Johnson, Favors and Turner have always been ahead of him.

So, for Cousins, this is definitely an upset.

However, Yees doesn't think so if the Clippers choose Cousins ​​and won't trade Westbrook.

The Clippers' choice is also difficult to analyze. They already have Westbrook. It's okay not to choose Wall, who they didn't want before the draft, but this doesn't mean that both Westbrook and Cousins ​​will stay.

Maybe, all go!

The Clippers joining the competition for Anthony means that except for Nick Young, the Clippers will not be traded. Others, including Westbrook, DeAndre Jordan and Jordan Hill, among the Clippers' four young players, can be traded.

Not only is Ye Si looking at Cousins ​​and thinking a lot, but many other people are also watching.

James, Kobe, Anthony, even Chris Paul...

Everyone is in this tense situation, and the situation is still very unclear.

On the contrary, Cousins ​​surprised Ye Si...

"I'm very happy that the Los Angeles Clippers chose me. I will let the world know that I am worthy of their trust. I am stronger than DeAndre Jordan and stronger than anyone imagined!"

After Cousins ​​finished speaking, he did not forget to glance over with his immature but still lethal eyes. Ye Si and other NBA stars were stunned for a moment.

, "This boy is quite honest..."

Even Yao Ming, who was watching the excitement next to Ye Si, was stunned for a moment and said with a smile.

Ye Si also smiled and nodded.

It is indeed honest.

All the rookies here know that just because they are selected does not mean that they are on the selected team.

But this kid started competing with DeAndre Jordan for the Clippers' starting spot.

Quite straightforward.

So much so that seeing Cousins ​​like this, even David Stern, who had been a little worried, had a rare smile on his face.

Cousins ​​is indeed very happy now. The Clippers are a good place to go. He likes the Los Angeles team very much.

There are cities and superstar Nick Young.

There are not many people he admires in the NBA, but Nick Young's coquettishness and uprightness are what he has always admired.

However, the happy Cousins ​​did not notice the increasingly ugly expression on John Wall's face at this time.

This choice of the Clippers is not only because John Wall does not look very good-looking.

In front of the TV, in the King's general manager's office, everyone looked ugly.

Cousins ​​is their target!

"We were robbed!"

The Kings already have Evans, a super point guard who can shoot suddenly and average 20+5+5 as a rookie. They have no need for John Wall at all. They are just waiting for Cousins ​​​​to form a double threat inside and outside. What to do now?

It's not just the Kings' front office that's having a hard time right now.

Jordan and Larry Brown are having a hard time right now, too.

The team traded the No. 4 pick for Tony Parker because Larry Brown felt it was impossible to select John Wall with the No. 4 pick. When a star point guard like Tony Parker entered the trade market, of course he had to win.

Now, John Wall is very likely to fall to fourth!

But their draft picks have been traded!

Of course, unlike Larry Brown who looked like he was eating, Jordan looked ugly and felt secretly happy at the same time.

Tell you to despise me for using the fourth pick to select Bird second Gordon Hayward.

He also said that the fourth pick was wasted on Hayward, and it would be better to trade Parker.

Damn it, do you regret it now?

My lovely little Bird!

After Jordan felt secretly happy in his heart, the expression on his face turned resentful.

"In the 2010 NBA draft, in the first round, with the third overall pick, the player selected by the Sacramento Kings was the small forward from Syracuse University, Wesley Johnson!"

"The Spurs are so fucking cheap!"

The resentful Jordan became even more resentful. Many people were surprised at the Spurs' good luck this time.

Damn Tony Parker for John Wall!

Although it is not a shotgun exchange for a gun, it is also an upgrade in talent!

It's not just Jordan who is envious of the Spurs' good luck, many people are envious.

"The Spurs are so lucky. Although Popovich has Alzheimer's disease, they have found a more SB Presti. Key Presti agreed to the deal for the Spurs' fourth pick. John Wall is the Seattle SuperSonics. It’s over!”

"John Wall replaced Rondo, this improvement is simply taking off!"

And the look on John Wall's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

The king's choice is surprising but not surprising.

The key is, Rondo's transaction, he never thought that he was so close to Yes SuperSonics!

Going to Spurs?

John Wall sighed in his heart.

Missed the Sonics and Yes...

"In the first round of the 2010 NBA Draft, with the fourth overall pick, the San Antonio Spurs selected Kawhi Leonard, a small forward from the University of Washington!"

John Wall was stunned.

Everyone in the audience was stunned.

At the same time, Ye Si was also stunned.

Because this is a signal that the transaction failed...

In front of the TV, Jerry West also sighed.

"Refuse to trade with the Bucks for the eighth pick..."

Popovich...

Listening to the commentators on TV laughing at Popovich's fourth choice, Leonard.

Alzheimer's disease?

Jerry West shook his head helplessly.

Leonard is the fourth, and if John Wall is chosen as the fifth, the Spurs will take off next season!

This is deceiving the whole world...

Pretending to be interested in Rondo or something...

"In the first round of the 2010 NBA Draft, with the fifth overall pick, the San Antonio Spurs selected the power forward from Georgia Tech, Derrick Favors!"

"..."

Jerry West opened his mouth wide and felt like his waist was being shaken blind by Popovich.
