Super Lord of the Rings

Ten days later, the annual NBA draft began. ∈↗,

The evaluation of this draft is not as good as last season. The most concerned are the two new inside stars, Dwight Howard and Emeka Okafor, who will compete for the top pick.

Abby went to the scene, and Wang Jun and his sister were watching live TV at home. Although the Nets did not have a first-round pick, he still wanted to see who was selected in the second round, maybe his teammates for next season.

The Magic gave up Okafor, who was known as an instant combat power, and chose high school player Howard. Although this would cause dissatisfaction with the team's core McGrady, the management decided to take a risk.

With the lessons learned by Kwame Brown, almost no one dares to touch the inside line of high school students. Howard's reputation in high school was not too great, relying on his athletic talent, and his dribbling and shooting were all inferior.

Okafor is the favorite of the heavens who has already played, and the Magic looked at Okafor and gave up on him. He registered his height and didn't actually wear shoes.

Okafor's No. 2 spot was won by the newly formed Charlotte Bobcats, who will join the NBA's Eastern Conference as the 30th team next season.

Except for the two picks in the first round and the second round, other Bobcats players are selected from the list of unprotected players provided by 29 teams. It is difficult to choose a strong player. The owner and president of the Bobcats are very satisfied with Okafor's joining, and they will definitely let him be the core of the team.

The Bulls picked Ben Gordon as a scorer. His breakthroughs and jump shots are very strong. The disadvantage is that he is only tall in shoes, his style is a shooting guard, and he may have flaws on the defensive end.

Known as the next "Magician", Livingston was selected by the Clippers with the fourth overall pick. He is a tall point guard and he is also a high school player.

The fifth Wang Jun is very familiar. He was defeated in college, "Scud" guard Devon Harris, who shoots badly, and will break through and fast break.

Wang Jun couldn't help complaining to his sister: "This guy, who I have defeated consecutively in college, entered the league a year later and became fifth in the league. It's really unreasonable."

"You have proved them wrong." Le Ying said proudly.

Indeed, it is not Wang Jun who is suffering now, but the managers who missed him.

The Eagles selected Childress for sixth. A quality swingman.

The Bulls selected Luol Deng with the seventh overall pick, a small forward with amazing athletic talent.

The Raptors selected Brazilian center Rafael Arauyo, who has a low predicted pick.

There was an upset.

The 76ers selected Iguodala, who has the best bounce among the rookies. His shooting skills are rough, and his body is strong and has training value.

When it was the Cavaliers' turn, they selected white small forward Luke Jackson with the tenth pick.

This is a completely incomprehensible choice, although Luke's college statistics are good. But the speed is not fast, and the stature is average. To say who he is more like, that is Kapono, who was selected by the Cavaliers last season, so bad that he was thrown into the unprotected list and may be selected by the Bobcats.

Now that Luke is selected, he is still such a high pick. With James here, isn't it sick to find a high-ranking rookie as a substitute?

The Cavaliers management is so stupid, James collapsed when he saw the draft results at home.

Although he said that he wanted to partner with a pitcher, he was referring to someone like Wang Jun. It's not about finding a rookie to gamble on luck.

Later, many insiders and swing players were selected. Wang Jun is not familiar with it, so he doesn't know how good he is.

The Lakers picked a handsome Slovenian named Vujacic, a pitcher.

After the Nets were thrown to death by a rain of three-pointers from the outside in the finals, the Lakers management realized the importance of pitchers.

An acquaintance of Wang Jun, he competed with point guard Du Hong in college and fell to the second round before being selected by the Bulls.

Du Hong is a genius. He was favored at the beginning. He could participate in the NBA draft as a freshman, but he insisted on playing a few more years in college. If you have money, you don't want to earn it. As a result, he fell out of the lottery and the first round in his draft predictions, and now he has dropped to ninth place in the second round, so he will definitely not be able to sign a big contract.

The 17th place in the second round is also a highlight. The Blazers chose South Korean player, center Ha Seung-jin. Looking at the photos and introductions given at the draft, this person has a hippopotamus-like face.

I don't know how good he is, but if Ha Seung-jin can play well, the NBA will soon be South Korea's Smecta.

The Nets selected a small forward Christian Derej at No. 22.

Wang Jun was very surprised, and said strangely: "It seems that there is no need to say hello. I don't think this guy can stay at all."

Le Ying asked, "Why?"

"There are too many swingers in our team. Why did you choose this person?" Wang Jun suddenly felt that something was wrong. The thought of the word "deal" made him a little depressed.

Could this be a sign?

After the Nets won the championship, they were different from all teams. There was no arrangement for the championship parade, which seemed to indicate that something big was about to happen. Now the reinforcement is incomprehensible, which is too strange.

NBA players are very mobile, and there will definitely be summer trades. The question is who will be traded?

Wang Jun shook his head.

What are you thinking so much about?

These things are not for him to think about. What he should do is to concentrate on playing basketball well and strive for a big contract.

Seeing his strange expression, Le Ying asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, just don't know what will happen to the team, it's not a big deal."

The NBA draft ended, the free market started, and big things happened very quickly.

The first big deals came from the Rockets and Magic.

McGrady was dissatisfied that the team did not choose Okafor, and the Magic went even further and traded McGrady away.

The Rockets sent "Boss" Steve Francis, "Old Cat" Mobley and center Cato in exchange for two-time scoring champion Tracy McGrady, Juwan Howard, Tyrone Lue and Rhys Guinness.

"Yao Mai Combination" was born. Houston fans started to cheer.

Tracy McGrady plays casually and elegantly, and even those sleepy eyes reveal a sexy charm. He is the darling of the league, more like a superstar than Francis, the two-time scoring champion partnered with a rising star inside, reminiscent of the "OK combination".

Not to be outdone, the Lakers quickly grabbed the news page.

They traded with the Heat, sent the head star O'Neal with one year left on his contract, and got three of the Heat, Caron Butler, Lamar Odom, Brian Grant and a future first-round pick.

The Heat got a superstar as they wished, and the inside line has an axis, which can stimulate the home box office even more.

The Lakers got the second-rate star Lamar Odom in his prime and Butler with great potential. Only Grant is slightly inferior, and the victory lies in his rich playing experience. The Lakers sent O'Neal away and lost the present, but they can gamble on the future.

Then, the Lakers renewed Kobe's contract for $136 million in seven years, which is the highest single contract in NBA history. And in the contract, Kobe has the right to veto transactions, which shows the Lakers' determination to right Kobe.

The Pistons also made big moves, signing the Argentine swingman Delfino and introducing Anthony McDyess, and their strength improved again.

McDyess is a genius ruined by injuries, with a peak of 20+12, and he is still an excellent insider, so he has no problem playing as a substitute.

The Pacers are actively looking for Miller's replacement. They signed the Eagles' swingman Stephen Jackson, who had 18.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.8 steals last season.

Jackson is a quasi-star, good offensive and defensive, and can shoot three-pointers.

The strength of the three major competitors in the Eastern Conference has greatly increased, but the Nets have not made any signings. They just suddenly announced that the team has changed their boss, and Lewis has withdrawn from playing. (To be continued.)
