NBA World Mall

On the second day after the Wanjie League finals, Li Tuanjie received his "cousin" Li Sanjing at the airport.

A virtual memory was implanted in Li Sanjing's mind. In his opinion, Li Tuanjie was his promising cousin. He was very excited after meeting Li Tuanjie...

Before coming, Li Mitsui also studied the NBA draft. He knew that he would definitely be selected. If others didn't want him, wouldn't his cousin also want him? ! Then do relatives still want to do it...

When he thought that he would become a millionaire soon, Li Sanjing's smile reached to the back of his head...

…

Finally, Li Sanjing was picked up, and Li Tuanjie breathed a sigh of relief. Now that Mitsui Shou's commission has been truly completed!

…

The next day, the draft officially begins!

Xia Longwen came back from nowhere. It would be outrageous if he didn't pay attention to the draft.

"Togetherness, how are you? Do you have any plans this time?!" Xia Longwen and Li Tuanjie were sitting in the venue.

"Just watch it later. By the way, let me tell you first. I will use a second-round pick to select Li Sanjing later!"

"It's small things. You decide these things. I won't get involved. It's up to you to choose whoever you want!" He chose Li Sanjing by lottery but had no objection.

In his opinion, this is all a trivial matter. In order to increase the number of people, the Bucks also signed two scrap players. The salaries of the scrap players must also be paid. If this salary is paid to others, it is better to pay it to one's own people... …

…

Li Sanjing was sitting next to Li Tuan Tuan at this time. After hearing Li Tuan Tuan's words, he was immediately elated. It was certain that he would become a millionaire!

…

Stern began to take the stage and spoke a bunch of clichés, marking the official start of this draft!

…

"I announce that Derrick Martel Rose from the University of Memphis has been selected by the Chicago Bulls with the first overall pick in the first round!" Stern announced the No. 1 pick on the court with great enthusiasm.

Li Tuanjie smiled. Rose was selected as the No. 1 pick. This was not beyond Li Tuanjie's expectation. In fact, if Li Tuanjie had the No. 1 pick, he would choose Rose without hesitation. There is no doubt about this!

Rose's strength is recognized as strong. The league introduced the Rose Rule for him, and he also won the honor of being the youngest MVP in history. In terms of early career development, Rose will definitely surpass Westbrook...

But it is a pity that such a talent was ruined by injuries...

However, if Rose can be under Li Tuanjie, the problem of injuries will not be a big problem. Maybe Rose can reach unprecedented heights!

"Ross is very good. Even half-hearted fans like me know this newcomer. It's a pity that we don't have the No. 1 pick!" Xia Longwen said with a hint of pity.

"The ones who are supposed to come can't escape, so don't worry!"

"Oh? Are you able to recruit him to our Bucks?" Xia Longwen looked surprised.

Li Tuanjie shook his head with a smile and said nothing!

You definitely won't be able to find it. The Bulls are willing to take Rose with the No. 1 pick because they must value him extremely. There is no way to pick up this leak!

…

"I announce that the Miami Heat selected Michael Beasley from Kansas State University with the second overall pick in the first round!"

"I announce that the Minnesota Timberwolves selected O.J. Mayo from the University of Southern California with the third overall pick in the first round!"

…

The top three picks have all been announced. This is completely consistent with the information Li Tuanjie received from Bennett, and there is no change at all!

"I announce that Russell Westbrook from the University of California, Los Angeles, has been selected by the Oklahoma City Thunder with the fourth overall pick in the first round!"

…

Seeing that Westbrook, whom he liked very much, was selected by the Thunder, Li Tuanjie was still a little reluctant to give up. In any case, Westbrook's personal ability was completely unqualified. He was included in the Bucks lineup and allowed to lead the second team. If the lineup or the third lineup is used to play, the effect will be very good.

But now, Westbrook has been selected by the Thunder, and Li Tuanjie can only stare!

…

"It's our turn, Unity, who are you going to choose with the fifth pick?!" Xia Longwen asked curiously!

"It must be Kevin Love, there is no other better candidate!"

…

After submitting his draft target to the on-site draft management committee via a small piece of paper, Stern took the stage to announce it!

"I announce that the Milwaukee Bucks have selected freshman Kevin Love from UCLA with the fifth overall pick in the first round!"

…

The Bucks' draft targets have always been beyond the expectations of all teams, but this time the Bucks chose Love, which is not surprising. Love himself is very optimistic, and he should be regarded as the best choice in this draft. The most outstanding big man!

The only thing that puzzles everyone is that the Bucks currently don't have too many strong inside players on the team. Why would they use this precious fifth pick to select an inside player? !

You must know that there are two newcomers in the little green room, Gallinari and Eric Gordon, who seem to be more suitable for the Bucks!

…

Love obviously didn't expect that he would be selected by the Bucks. In his opinion, the Bucks are likely to choose a player who prefers the outside!

If you can join the Bucks, for a newcomer, there will be half pros and cons!

The advantage of course is that you are in a strong team, you can learn more experience, and you can improve your strength faster!

The bad thing is that it is difficult to get too much playing time, and it is not impossible to lose everyone in the end!

Love didn't think too much. Since he was selected by the Bucks, he could only accept this reality.

…

The draft continued. Li Tuanjie sat in the venue and watched Stern go back and forth on stage to announce the results of the draft...

The round-faced brother Deng, that is, Eric Gordon was selected away, Lopez and Lopez were also selected, Speights Thigh, Gao Yuanyuan Hibbert, Big McGee and others were also selected!

Although these players are not first-line stars, Li Tuanjie feels that if they are properly trained, each of them still has considerable training value.

Soon, after the Bobcats selected center Ajinza with the 21st pick, it was the Bucks' turn to pick again!

This pick was obtained from the Magic when the Bucks traded Ramon Sessions. The pick was not very high, only the 22nd pick in the first round!

Li Tuanjie thought about it for a while, and without saying a word, he directly chose Ibaka!

Originally, with the 22nd pick, Li Tuanjie had quite a few players to choose from, but in terms of potential, players like Batum and George Hill are definitely not as good as Ibaka!

If Ibaka hadn't played with an injury, leading to injuries, I'm afraid Ibaka would definitely have grown into one of the top three defensive insiders in the league!

Although Ryan Anderson, Courtney Lee, Batum or George Hill are all good, it is difficult for them to reach the top of the league in certain aspects!

…

"What, are the Bucks crazy?! They chose another inside player?! How much do they like inside players!"

“Marc Gasol and Gortat are both new inside players with excellent potential in the league, and the Bucks have Li Tuanjie and Millsap at the power forward position. It can be said that the Bucks’ inside group is the best in the league. The most luxurious thing, why did they choose two insiders?! I really don’t understand!”

Fans in the venue and watching the draft expressed their confusion. If other teams selected two insiders in a row, they would be able to accept it. However, the Bucks have a super luxurious insider group, but they still selected two insiders. This is Let them have no idea what the Bucks are doing!

…

Hearing the commotion at the scene, Li Tuanjie smiled. I don't understand? ! I'll choose an insider for you later, I'm afraid you'll go crazy...

…

The first fourteen picks are lottery picks. Generally, newcomers that the league believes are likely to be selected by the lottery will sit in the small green room arranged on site!

At this moment, the lottery picks have already been selected, but there is still a player sitting there in the small green room, a little embarrassed...

This man is DeAndre Jordan, also known as DeAndre Jordan!

On the eve of the draft, Jordan's draft prospects were excellent. Most people thought that he would be selected in the lottery. But when the draft actually started, no one cared about this guy. It seemed that the first-round picks were almost gone. , he still wasn’t selected!

At this time, Little Jordan's forehead, which was sitting in the small green room, was already covered with sweat. He felt that he was completely finished...

"I announce that the Milwaukee Bucks have selected DeAndre Jordan from Texas A-M University with the 30th overall pick in the first round!"

…

"Wow..." The whole audience was shocked!

what the hell! Did the Bucks draft another inside player? ! Using your three first-round picks to select three post players in a row? ! Are they just fools?

"Now it seems that there is only one explanation. The Bucks are very likely to start selling off the young inside players in the team!" Everyone began to speculate!

Having used their first-round picks to select three insiders in a row, it is impossible to fill the number of players. From this point of view, it seems that the Bucks are extremely likely to sell off the potential insiders in the team!

Many team managements were extremely surprised. Marc Gasol, Gortat, and Millsap were all extremely greedy. Any one of them could carry the entire restricted area!

"Quick, quick, contact the Bucks to see what their plans are. We must get one of those three players!" Many team executives called their subordinates to inquire about the situation with the Bucks!

…

It is extremely rare for a team to have three first-round picks in one draft. But using these three picks to select three insiders in a row is even rarer and unheard of. !

Jordan was so excited that he almost wanted to cry. He finally caught the last train for the first-round pick. Otherwise, how embarrassing it would be for him, a rookie in the Green Room, if he was selected in the second round.

…

With the Bucks selecting DeAndre Jordan, the first round of this draft has come to an end!

Except for the Bucks who unexpectedly got three insiders, most of the remaining team's choices were within people's expectations!

After the first round of the draft, Li Tuanjie directly called a staff member next to him and asked him to contact the Thunder's management.

If Westbrook doesn't get it, Li Tuanjie really doesn't have a clear idea, so he wants to test the Thunder to see if they are willing to let Westbrook out!
