In the basketball world of 2011, many incredible things happened, and the most talked about by fans was undoubtedly the Dallas Mavericks' championship.

At the beginning of the season, no one could have imagined that the Mavericks, who led the team with a single core, would make it to the finals. After reaching the Finals, no one thought that the aging Mavericks could crush the Heat Big Three.

However, the truth is that Dirk. Nowitzki played one of the best series of his career, and his inexplicable performance on the court overshadowed the Big Three.

Nowitzki's success has taught everyone that a crazy accumulation of stars doesn't necessarily bring you a championship. A proper system and a strong individual are enough to succeed!

Dallas fans are now undoubtedly the happiest fans in the world, and they have swept away the haze of being once black-eight and stood on top of the world. Nowitzki also got rid of the infamy of "soft eggs" in one fell swoop, and after winning the championship this time, the historical status of "old drivers" will undoubtedly rise wildly.

A foreign player who single-handedly led the team to defeat the most powerful star combination on the planet. This kind of thing is enough for Nowitzki to blow for a lifetime.

The Mavericks' victory also came as a surprise to Henson, but he doesn't care who wins this season. Because for Henson, the new season has already begun long before the combined tryouts.

The draft conference is the battlefield that Henson cares more about!

"Are you sure your series of plans will succeed?" An hour before the draft began, Bird called to inquire about Henson's draft meeting.

Due to Henson's success in the draft two years before, Bird has now left the draft to Henson with carte blanche to handle. Henson just needs to take care of everything and give Bird an announcement.

"The draft is a big casino, Bird, and nothing is certain here. Trust me though, I'll give you a good result. ”

Bird didn't doubt Henson's abilities, because even Bird didn't know if Henson wanted Reggie. Jackson or Leonard. Others, it's even more difficult to guess.

"Then you come in, I'll wait to see how you perform."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to get in, Bird. I left New Jersey this morning and am now in the Bay Area. ”

"What are you doing in the Bay Area!?"

"Accompany your girlfriend." Henson replied lightly.

※※※

June 24, 2011, Prudential Center, New Jersey. Although there was no NBA game today, the atmosphere in the arena was even stronger than game day!

In the next few hours, the young talents will start their careers. Some of these geniuses may be unknown, but some may become the next superstars to become household names.

And the team participating in the draft is also likely to change the fate of the team because of a decision.

"Good evening everybody, I'm Mike. Brin, I'm here tonight and I'm going to be with Greg. Anthony, Isaiah. Thomas and David in the outfield. Aldridge will bring you the live broadcast of tonight's NBA Draft! ”

On the TV, Mike. Brin's signature voice burst into people's ears. Although this year has been recognized as a draft year, fans are still paying close attention to the draft.

Popovich sat in his small private room, a little nervous. Originally, he was going to use George. Hill swapped for a draft pick to get Leonard.

But the Pacers' trade proposal for Holiday disrupted Popovich's plans.

Holiday is undoubtedly a talented point guard, averaging 14 points and 6 assists per game on the Pacers last season, and has already become a star.

Popovich had to admit that the Pacers' chips were heartwarming. But the Spurs didn't immediately agree to the offer and didn't refuse. They were waiting, waiting for the results of the draft.

If a team takes the lead in intercepting Leonard, Popovich will use George Murphy. Hill goes for Leonard. If Leonard does end up with the 29th pick, then the Spurs can just draft that taciturn kid and agree to a trade with the Pacers!

That's the best result, so that the Spurs can kill two birds with one stone!

Meanwhile, in the Pacers' private room, Frank. Vogel and Stephen. Silas sat together nervously as well. Henson only said this morning that everything would go according to plan, and then left confidently. The Pacers may be the only team to have an assistant coach in the draft.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the 2011 NBA Draft officially began. Vogel felt like his palms were sweaty, and even though Henson had already taken care of everything, he felt extremely nervous.

On the top pick that people are most concerned about, Carey. Owen was deservedly picked off by the Cleveland Cavaliers. Irving put on a baseball cap with the Cavaliers as a young man, and with David. Stern shakes hands.

Henson didn't know that this little defender who was standing on the stage facing the camera would give him a huge headache in the future.

Subsequently, the Timberwolves selected Derrick with the second pick. Williams, the Utah Jazz took Kante with the third pick. As the picks moved back, Vogel became more and more nervous.

There were no surprises in the first 14 picks, and Leonard was not picked by anyone. By the 15th pick, when it was the turn of the Philadelphia 76ers to make a choice, Vogel's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

If the 76ers go back on their word and end up choosing Vucevic, then it's all over!

"The 15th pick in the 2011 NBA Draft, the Philadelphia 76ers, chose ......" Stern paused, and Vogel felt like his heart was almost skipping out.

"Chose Kawaii. Leonard, from San Diego State University! ”

After Stern announced the results, Leonard himself was a little stunned. He took the 76ers' hat in confusion, apparently unexpecting to be picked away with the 15th pick.

"What's going on!? Didn't the 76ers want Vucevic? Popovich asked Forbud with a frown, and Forbud had already picked up the phone and was ready to call the 76ers.

At this time, offstage, Leonard was interviewed by reporters with a blank face. This guy himself is a "facial paralysis physique", and he is still in a state of confusion, so he is even more speechless.

He was still wondering what kind of career he would have in Philadelphia, but less than two minutes later, Leonard was the first to experience the cold side of the NBA as a business league.

Meanwhile, in the Spurs' box, Forbud had just said a few words before hanging up.

"What do the 76ers say? They agreed to accept George. Hill!? Popovich anxiously asked why the 76ers, who had never been interested in Leonard, suddenly changed their minds.

Forbud shook his head in frustration. "They've been the first to accept a trade proposal from the Pacers."

"Walkers?" Even Popovich was stunned at this time, the Pacers didn't keep yelling for Reggie. Jackson? There's no reason for that!

At this time on stage, David. Stern announced a deal.

"In the latest trade, the Indiana Pacers used their 23rd pick and Josh. McRoberts, the No. 15 rookie from the Philadelphia 76ers, is Avaj. Leonard. ”

The deal didn't cause much of an uproar at the scene, after all, many fans didn't even know who Leonard was. But in the Spurs' private room, Popovich and Forbud blew up.

Popovich stared at the big screen on which the latest trade advisories were being offered. The Pacers cut off Leonard, what do they want to do? Take advantage of the fire?

"Ask the Pacers what they mean and what chips we need to get Leonard back!"

Forbud nodded and made another call for Popovich. But again, without saying a few words, Forbud ended the conversation with a grim face.

"Bird says they don't plan to trade Leonard and ...... at the same time"

"At the same time what?" Popovich knows that something is wrong!

At the same time, they were very interested in Holiday and George. Hill's deal, no longer interested...... We missed, Pop! ”

Popovich slammed his fist on the table, and he understood everything in an instant!

What Reggie. Jackson, what trade Holiday is, it's all a smoke bomb put by the Pacers in order to get Leonard! And himself, the experienced self, the old and spicy self, has been kept in the dark!

"That bastard!" Popovich scolded, he didn't scold Larry. Bird, but scolded that Asian coach!

Popovich is well aware that only Henson. Joe, you can use so many indiscriminate means!

And at this time, the "mongrel" in Popovich's mouth, Henson, who directed all this farce. Joe.

He was under the Golden Gate Bridge, hugging his girlfriend and licking ice cream.
