Chapter 540 [The Rising Team, Gold Everywhere]
The Trail Blazers selected swingman Martel Webster with the 7th pick. HEIGHT 201CM, WEIGHT 107 KG, STRONG BODY, OFFENSE RELIES ON THE OUTSIDE OF SHOOTING. Webster's rebounding ability is poor, and there is no possibility of changing to the No. 4 position, and being a good role player is his limit.
The Knicks selected Andrew Bynum with the eighth pick. This is the meaning of "Zen Master" Phil Jackson, before the draft began, he joined the Knicks on a long-term contract with a high salary of 50 million for 5 years as a coach, and successfully squeezed out "Assassin" Thomas.
In Jackson's view, "Little Shark" has the potential to become a star center. He was born on October 27, 1987, and is not yet 18 years old. HE IS 213CM TALL, WEIGHS 129 KILOGRAMS, AND AVERAGED 22 POINTS, 16 REBOUNDS AND 5 BLOCKS PER GAME WHEN HE PLAYED FOR ST. JOSEPH'S HIGH SCHOOL.
Bynum likes physical contact under the basket, has a tougher style, is a traditional type of center seedling, has certain offensive skills under the basket, has a soft shooting touch, knows how to use his wide body to create offensive space, and no one in high school can challenge the restricted area where he is stationed.
However, his lateral movement speed is average, and his agility under the basket is not much different from that of Eddie Curry of his age, and he has not shown great passing talent.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Bynum had never been privileged on the offensive end with the Lakers, and he also scored 18.7 points, 11.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.9 blocks at his peak, and was selected as an All-Star starter and the All-Star Second Team.
Jackson was ready to trade Ben Wallace at this time, and he didn't like Big Ben who couldn't attack.
The Magic picked Channing Frye for ninth place. This is a relatively thin interior lineman, good at shooting, played four years in college, is a good instant force, but has not much potential.
Frye's characteristics are very suitable for partnering with "Warcraft" Howard, the team does not need him to guard the restricted area, block, grab rebounds, need a big forward to pull out to shoot, the two complement each other.
The Magic aren't weak now, Jamal Nelson, Richard Jefferson, Sido Turkglou, Fry, Howard. Also off the bench are Tony Barty and Chaki Atkins, who will make the playoffs next season as long as the players are not injured.
In this life, Maddie did not join the Magic, so that the team had plenty of salary space, and did not exchange Francis and Cato from the Rockets for two garbage contracts. If the Magic can trade another star, Howard will be the favorite to win the championship when he is in his prime.
The tenth place of supersonic was chosen by Ek Diogu.
This is a strong power forward, with a height of 203cm and a weight of 113kg. In Yang Rui's previous life, Chinese fans were very familiar with him, because he joined the CBA Guangdong Hongyuan team, was the right-hand man of the United Arab Emirates, and an important contributor to Guangdong's regaining the championship.
Diogu also left his name in the NBA, although his career statistics were only 6 points, 3.1 rebounds and 0.3 assists, but on March 15, 2006, in the Pacers vs. Warriors game, Diogu was opened, really opened.
In the second quarter, Diogu came off the bench and scored 12 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists in a single quarter, creating a historic record of a quasi-triple-double in a single quarter for a substitute. God had gone a minute earlier, or he would have been in triple doubles.
A couple of potential players still fell behind, and the Bobcats traded for a high draft pick and signed Shaun May, a power forward with serious injury concerns.
Shaun May was the most famous player in the first round of the 2005 NBA Draft. In the 2005 NCAA Finals, he faced the University of Illinois led by Deron Williams, Rutherhead and DeBlanc and scored 26 points and 10 rebounds on 10-of-11 shooting, leading the University of North Carolina to regain the NCAA championship after 11 years and was elected MOP in the Final Four.
If it weren't for frequent injuries, Sean May would have been a star in the NBA.
Forward Danny Granger was still drafted by the Pacers at No. 16 and was selected as an All-Star in the future, averaging 25.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game at his peak, which was also ruined by injury.
In the first round, many players joined the same team as Yang Rui in his previous life, the difference is only the order. It's all decided by the scouts during training camp.
The biggest variable is that the Knicks did not select David Lee, a white interior lineman, at the 30th pick, but instead drafted swingman CJ Myers with the Lakers' pick, presumably to fill the No. 2 vacancy left by Sprewell.
The Knicks will definitely not renew his contract with the "madman", he is 34 years old, his form has seriously declined, and although he has not yet shouted the classic statement that "no 10 million is not enough to support his family", Knicks management feels that he is useless.
Jackson's vision is not particularly accurate, and CJ Myers' potential is not comparable to David Lee's. Seeing this time, Yang Rui was thinking about whether to call Kupchak at the scene and find a way to choose David Lee.
In Yang Rui's previous life, David Lee was the biggest surprise of the Knicks' draft, with two double-doubles, two star game selections, a rookie challenge MVP, and a championship with the Warriors in 15 years.
His offensive skills are extremely gorgeous, he can shoot with both left and right hands, excellent footwork, flexible ball control, superior passing vision, and is a player with no blind spots in offensive skills. But on the defensive end, David Lee is famously a colander, and his only positive role may be grabbing rebounds.
Yang Rui thought about it for a while, but still didn't make this call, and according to the original plan, he was going to choose two speed guards.
Although this cheap is picked up for nothing, the Lakers' interior lineup is too strong, as long as Yao Ming, Rashid, and Odom do not break up, they can only be substitutes when they are selected inside.
Moreover, Dio can also play as a big forward, playing better than playing a small forward, no matter who comes from the inside, the end is to be a marginal person.
Next season, the Lakers' goal is to succeed in defending the championship, that is, power is more important. If Odom insists on leaving in the summer, he can also change back to the strongman, and it will not be the turn of the rookie on the inside.
Even if David Lee falls to the second round, the order will be relatively high, and there are still people who are more cost-effective than him. In Yang Rui's previous life, "Polish Hammer" Massin Gortat was only selected in the second round at No. 27.
Gortat peaked with 15.4 points and 10 rebounds, and in 2016-17 he averaged a double-double of 10.8 points, 10.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game with the Wizards. He has a balanced offense and defense, and his strength is not much worse than David Lee.
Young asked Kupchak to trade the first-round pick because he felt the second round was full of gold.
Before the conference, Yang asked Kupchak to trade three-point power forward Brian Cook to the Magic in exchange for the No. 9 pick in the second round. Cook's defense is too bad, he obviously has the body but he doesn't want to fight, and no matter how accurate his shooting is, there is no future at all.
In addition, the Lakers also have the Hawks' second-round pick with the 3rd pick, which Devin George traded for Dior, and the Lakers' own final draft pick was traded to the Pistons.
Yang Rui feels that there are too many newcomers to cultivate, and there is no shortage of strong players inside and outside, and it is enough to properly repair the lineup in the summer. If he is allowed to choose, he can still pick up Chuck Hayes in the 60th, and it doesn't make much sense to be an inside blue-collar worker.
In Yang Rui's previous life, the Lakers also engaged in two second-round picks this year, selecting Turiaf and Vaughn Weaver. Neither is a star, but has played multiple seasons in the NBA and left their mark.
Now that Yang Rui has the memory of rebirth, of course he can choose a more reliable person. Last season, the Lakers' counterattack was not strong enough, and the fastest player, Mo Williams, also had the biggest specialty of shooting. Therefore, Yang Rui wants to improve his speed and strive to play a stronger offense next season, averaging more than 120 points per game.
He wants to prove to everyone that the Lakers weren't at their peak last season, and that they still have room to rise and be more attractive to fans!
At this time, the Jazz selected David Lee first in the second round......
