Chapter 643 [Don't choose the brain-dead, pick up the missing list]

In mid-June, Clippers manager Nel Olhi reached out to Bucks general manager John Hammond with an offer to trade the team's fifth-overall pick for second-year rookie point guard Stephen Curry.

The No. 5 pick may select "cousin" DeMarcus Cousins, even if he misses it, there is Paul George behind him, and even these two people can't be compared to Curry in Yang Rui's mind.

Curry finished his rookie season with 17.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.9 steals, finishing second in the Rookie of the Year selection, shooting 46.2 percent from the field and 43.7 percent from three-point range.

Curry and Ellis, two small guard starters, are not black holes? This is not a problem at all, it will be solved by changing to the orthodox No. 2 position and partnering with him.

Cousins and George have the strength to become All-Stars, but Curry is the one who plays with the plug-in, and besides him, there is no second player in the NBA who can win two regular season MVPs from beyond the three-point line. Although Curry has not won FMVP in the Finals three times, it is also because the opponent is strictly defending, no one dares to let him shoot, and he helps his teammates create space.

In the 17 Finals, Curry averaged 30 points and 10 assists per game and still couldn't get FMVP, which was unlucky, because Durant's performance was even better, averaging 35.5 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists per game, and he scored a 3-point overrun in Game 3.

The biggest weakness of the Bucks is the lack of good wing defenders, and Hammond has his eye on Wesley Johnson, a small forward who is 201cm tall and weighs 98 kilograms.

Not much has been discussed about who the 2010 NBA rookie was was named the No. 1 pick. The draft hasn't even begun, and John Wall, a terrifying point guard, seems to have become the inevitable pick.

Who will be his rivals? According to ESPN, Wesley Johnson has considerable quality. He averaged 22 points per game in the NCAA tournament and shot 50 percent from three-point range.

On the offensive end, he has great physicality and skill, and on the defensive end, he is an excellent off-ball defender and co-defender, who can quickly run from the weak side to the side with the ball, using his long arms and explosive bounce ability to deliver blocks.

If you miss Johnson, you can still choose an interior lineman and trade Bagnani back to a small forward. Now the Bucks management is a little broken by the soft egg of Bagnani.

People say that Nowitzki is soft is a smear, and the driver averages a lot of rebounds per game and a lot of low-post offense; Bagnani is really soft, just like Van Horn back then, the 213CM big man doesn't grab rebounds at all, and he is afraid of confrontation, so he will float outside to shoot.

The evaluation of this rookie is not low, Curry was a defensive black hole last season, and the Bucks management decided to trade after a meeting to discuss, but it can't be exchanged for one, and the Clippers still have to take a second-round pick.

After Orsie called Yang Rui to discuss, he immediately agreed that the first-round and second-round picks of this season would be given to the Bucks in exchange for Curry.

After the deal was confirmed, Yang Rui jumped up excitedly.

Nina asked, "What is so happy?" ”

"The manager changed back to a guard according to my request, and the Clippers will have a star in the future, can you not be happy? In the future, I will buy the Clippers, and in a few years I will definitely replace the Lakers and become the No. 1 basketball team in the NBA. ”

"With $200 million buying only 30% of the shares, is the Clippers worth that much? They couldn't even make it past the first round of the playoffs before, and they finished at the bottom every year. Nina sighed, she suspected that Yang Rui had been cheated by Sterling.

"No, it's definitely a big profit. The Clippers may not be worth a billion in the past, but with me joining, this team will be worth at least 3 billion in five years, and you will know then. ”

It's just that Sterling has been with the Clippers for less than 15 years and can't wait for the NBA to raise his salary collectively. If Sterling was forced to sell the team by the league in 2014, Yang Rui would definitely be much cheaper to buy.

No matter how shrewd Sterling is, he can't be considered a person who can predict the future.

Moreover, the agreement between the two parties has not been announced to the public, Yang Rui is a small boss is kept secret, and when many people form a group to buy a clipper in the future, Yang Rui will light up the contract, and it is estimated that those people will go crazy, and he finds it interesting to think about it.

At the end of June, the day of the draft came, and the league announced a trade for the Clippers and Bucks.

Most Bucks fans know that Curry is a bit sorry after leaving, but not to the point of being angry because there is still All-Star Monta Ellis on the team.

Ellis has a championship ring, statistics, sharp breaks, fancy 360-degree layups, and a style of play that attracts fans, better than Curry, who mainly relies on jump shots to score.

Clippers fans are a little disappointed, believing that Curry is not a good fit to partner with Eric Gordon, and the team's outside defense will definitely be worse next season, so it is better to pick two new players.

Yang Rui has no regrets or disappointments, he knows that this rookie is not easy to cultivate.

Cousins is a well-known brain-dead child, and the best choice for the second-round pick to the Clippers is Lance Stevenson, another brain-dead, if these two get together, the picture is so beautiful, they can't often blow at each other when they practice......

As long as Yang Rui announces the news of joining the Clippers, there must be people in the free market who are willing to join, and there is plenty of salary space, and there are currently two high salaries in Carman and Dunleavy.

On the same day, Yang Rui still watched the live broadcast of the draft conference on TV, wondering if there was any leakage to pick up.

The Wizards drafted point guard Wall in the first round, and the countdown to Arenas' departure has begun.

The Timberwolves drafted Evan Turner, a 201cm tall and 93-kilogram swingman with Grant Hill as a template. That's also one of the goals of the Bucks, which missed.

The Nets drafted Derrick Favors, a super-physical big man with a combination of reach, speed and matchup.

The Kings drafted Cousins with the No. 4 pick, and they would love to trade Thabit right now, but no one wants it.

The Bucks drafted Wesley Johnson with the Clippers' No. 5 pick, and they will regret it in the future.

Later, Aminu went to the Pistons, Haywood joined the Jazz, and the Pacers chose George.

The Bucks also traded a draft pick in the first round and selected interior Larry Sanders 15, and even with the swingman, they want to trade Bagnari out and try to rise next season.

Sanders' experience is very similar to that of Hanamichi Sakuragi, the hero of the famous comic book "Slam Dunk", who only learned to play basketball in his sophomore year of high school, and varsity coach Karimi Rodriguez discovered his talent.

Relying on super physical fitness, in the last season of high school, Sanders averaged 19.9 points, 12.1 rebounds and 5.9 blocks per game. In his junior season, Sanders averaged 14.4 points, 9.1 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game. He was named to the CAA Division First Team and won the Defensive Player of the Year award.

It's clear that the Bucks are ready to go the defensive path next season.

The Thunder drafted point guard Eric Bledsoe, and in Young's previous life, the Clippers traded Bledsoe to the team with a first-round pick next season. THIS PERSON'S PHYSICAL FITNESS IS SUPER STRONG, 185CM TALL, WITH AN ARM SPAN OF 198CM, AND A SUPER EXPLOSIVE POWER OF 101CM IN VERTICAL TAKE-OFF.

Now that the Clippers don't trade, Bledsoe will be guilty next season, and can only be used as a substitute for Harden and Westbrook, and it will be difficult for him to play beautiful statistics without enough balls.

Bledsoe thus entered Yang Rui's "missing list", and Yang Rui would jot down the names of several rookies in each draft, because the overlapping positions might not be typed. He won't trade for the time being, and in a few seasons he can consider signing to the team at a lower cost.

There is no strongman in the rookie behind, and Yang Rui directly changed the channel.
