There will be no major differences between the next draft and history.
The Cleveland Cavaliers chose Luke Jackson. God knows why they chose a tough small forward when they already have James.
Then both Biedrins and Swift were drafted.
As the No. 17 pick approaches, Edison becomes more and more nervous.
The Portland Trail Blazers used the 13th pick to select Marbury's cousin Sebastian Telfair, another New York street ball king. Telfair was born in Brooklyn, New York, and loved playing basketball since he was a child.
Basketball, at the age of 9, Telfair was already one of the most famous players in the New York streetball world. After attending Lincoln High School, Telfair became more famous and was known as a genius boy. Telfair in high school
It has won the favor of many big-name stars. The king of rap, Jay-Z, and the famous director Spike Lee often come to watch Telfair's games. New York Yankees star Derek Jeter is also a fan of Telfair.
Before entering the league, he was signed by Adidas as a sneaker spokesperson early. But like many players with a street ball background, the NBA is not suitable for them. They rarely achieve amazing results on this stage, and Telfair is no exception.
Then Humphries was selected by the Jazz. Edison had no particular impression of this player. He only remembered that he was a good inside blue-collar man. But his later wife Edison was deeply impressed - the coquettish socialite and big-butt Kim Kardashian.
, in order to find the video of her and rayj, Edison visited 6 major forums. It is indeed the "best in the world".
The Boston Celtics selected Al Jefferson with the 15th pick. This was a player that Edison was very optimistic about. On his candidate list, Al Jefferson was just behind Josh Smith. He later and
Howard and Josh Smith were also known as the three major insiders in 2004. They once regarded 20+10 as a treasure. They are a double-double expert, the league's first-class power forward, and the new Wolf King. Jefferson has strong offensive ability with his back to the basket and solid skills with his feet.
, his low-post footwork is unpredictable, and his outstanding strength and wingspan also help him not suffer in the penalty area confrontation. In fact, in terms of ability, Edison even rated him higher than Josh Smith, but he is also a glass man with feet.
He was injured constantly, so he fell behind Josh Smith. (ps. Jefferson is Yao Ming's nemesis. When Yao Ming was at his peak, he had an advantage in statistics whether he was playing Howard or O'Neal, but he only met Jefferson.
It's a tragedy that Jefferson was beaten on both offense and defense every time.)
At this point, Edison had nothing to hesitate. If he waited any longer, the day lilies would be cold, so Edison directly grabbed the phone in the box.
"Hello, Proportion, I'm Edison from Orlando (there's a little change this time)."
"Hello, Paul, do you have any plans?" The call at this time must be for a transaction, not for afternoon tea. In fact, the draft changes so quickly, and every moment
A large amount of information can be generated, and every manager must concentrate and think quickly to make decisions, otherwise no transaction will be completed.
"We traded Pat Garrity for your No. 17 pick and a salary-matching contract that you don't want, and you used the No. 17 pick to select Josh Smith." Edison stated his trade plan neatly.
"Garrity? Is he in good health?" Billie Knight said with deep doubts.
"There is no problem anymore. He has rested for a whole season, and he has never been a physical player. Think about it, he is 6 feet 8, barely 6 feet 9, but his three-point ability is very good, how about.
"Edison emphasized Garrity's height in response to Knight's special hobby.
Sure enough, as soon as this move came out, Knight lost his composure and became immediately tempted.
"Okay, but one Garrity alone is not enough. You add guard Tyronn Lue. I will provide Josh Smith and Boris Diaw. If Garrity passes the physical examination, then trade." Although Knight was not calm, but
He has not completely lost his mind. He also knows that his previous desire to be 6-foot-8 directly led to the team's forward group being severely stagnant, but there are few defenders. And Tyronn Lue is a target he has long desired. You know
In 2001, Tyronn Lue fought against Iverson with the Lakers and became famous. Iverson is a figure that no Eastern team can avoid...
In the original history, Tyronn Lue was used by the Magic as an addition to McGrady's trade, and then the Hawks directly traded with the Rockets to acquire Tyronn Lue. Now that the Magic directly proposed a trade for him, Knight's first reaction was Tyronn Lue.
.
Although Billie Knight spoke very calmly and casually, Edison was still keenly aware of the slight anomaly in his tone when he said "Tylen Lu", and then quickly deduced the truth through his recollection of history.
"With this salary mismatch, you still have to spend 2.5 million US dollars." Edison said calmly. Tyronn Lue's contract this year is about 1.5 million, Garrity has 2.8 million, and Diaw's rookie contract is 1 million, and Josh
Smith has just entered the draft.
"2.5 million is a bit much."
"That's it, we split the transaction into two parts. Tyronn Lue exchanges the No. 17 pick and executes it immediately. Then Garrity exchanges Diaw and 2.3 million. This transaction will be subject to Garrity's physical examination. If the performance is qualified, the transaction will be carried out. Otherwise
How about invalidating it if it passes the test?"
Billy Knight thought about it. Tyronn Lue traded for the 17th pick, and he made a profit, because he already has a lot of forward personnel. He just selected Childress, and he will definitely focus on training him. As for Josh, he is purely
I feel that I have no choice, so I might as well satisfy my own addiction. But Tyronn Lue is different. He is able to fight, which is the team's shortcoming. As for the subsequent transaction, if Garrity's health is indeed fine, then that's okay.
I just lost a little money, not much, only about 200,000. After all, the salary matching of both parties must be met. If you have physical problems, you don’t need to trade. You have earned Tyronn Lue in vain. This still needs to be considered.
What? So Knight immediately made a decision.
"Okay, that's settled, we'll contact the staff right away."
"Okay, happy cooperation." Edison was satisfied at this time, secretly happy in his heart.
In fact, Edison's trade this time used a small psychological negotiation skill. He first asked the Hawks' Knight to confirm that he wanted to trade Josh Smith, and he gave a sufficiently tempting bargaining chip, and then waited until the other party was really determined to trade, and then
Change the chips. But at this time, Knight is already ready to lose Josh Smith, so if the chips you give are slightly worse, then he will accept it. And if Edison later directly says "Garrity + Tyronn Lue"
Exchange for Josh Smith + Diaw + US$2.3 million." Knight may not necessarily agree, because under this clause, the Eagles will pay slightly more, and Knight will definitely cut the price to about 1.8 million in the end. Edison will deal with it in two steps.
It made Knight feel that he had started to take advantage, and that he might take advantage to the end. His greed defeated rationality. The greed derived from the huge benefits can blind the eyes and reason of people. Driven by the huge benefits, people
He would make up some reasonable excuses for some obvious loopholes or reasons. This was the case with Knight, and he finally fell into the trap dug by Edison.
In fact, there have been many similar cases in the league, and it was the same when the Thunder and Celtics traded. The Thunder first told the Celtics to trade Harden for Parkinson, and then continued to do work for the Celtics.
The Celtics instilled the concept that "Parkinson is of no use, you can trade him out." When the Celtics were convinced that keeping Parkinson was of no use, then trading Parkinson was a foregone conclusion. The results have arrived.
At the last moment of the transaction, the Thunder changed their mind again, "Sorry, Harden is out of the game, but how about Green, he is also very good." At this time, the Celtics had made up their mind to trade Parkinson and add a good back-up player.
After seeing Green's statistics as a player, he agreed in a daze.
Thunder made money using this method, but now Edison is making even more money.
Originally, Josh Smith was already very good, and Edison's original intention had been achieved. Unexpectedly, the eagle would be just and marry a daughter-in-law and a concubine...
Boris Diaw, is there anyone who will be the most improved player in the future? The famous French magician, although he is 6 feet 8 tall, his dribbling ability is beyond the average defender in the league, and his passing awareness is even better. He is a natural.
A master of support. When he arrived with the Spurs in 2012, he was already a ball that couldn't run or jump high, but he was still invincible. Although the statistics were not particularly eye-catching, his effect was very obvious. Knight's many 6-foot-8
Among the choices, he never discovered or thought that the Frenchman was the most versatile. He could organize offense, but point guard was not his most suitable position, although his ability to control the ball was indeed very strong.
Dr. Carter previously told Edison that Garrity's body has fully recovered and there is no problem playing games. In other words, he will definitely pass the physical examination and the Magic will 100% get Diaw.
Originally, I didn't expect to get Diaw, but now that I have, Edison's original draft plan can change. Originally, Edison planned to select a point guard as Nash's substitute, and the candidate was Beno Udri. But now that Diaw is here,
Then Edison doesn't need to be a backup point guard. When Nash is on the court, Diaw helps him support him. Nash comes off the court and Diaw organizes the offense. This is much more reliable than Udrih.
Soon, the Jazz selected Kirk Schneider with the 16th pick.
Then the Hawks and Magic submitted a trade report, and the league's working group quickly approved the deal.
"The Orlando Magic exchanged Tyronn Lue for the Atlanta Hawks' No. 17 pick. Now please fill in the draft picks from the Magic."
As soon as the news came out, the whole place was in an uproar, and everyone was whispering and discussing.
Commentator Steve Kerr shook his head and said in confusion: "It's another trade of picks. The Magic have already drafted Howard and Iguodala, and they still have 3 draft picks. Isn't that enough?
They actually traded draft picks again. In fact, trading draft picks is not impossible. You can choose to get the Hawks' draft picks for next year. Select 6 players in one year's draft. This is crazy. The Magic's management is completely crazy.
."
Barkley even directly sarcastically said, "It seems that the Magic are determined to rejuvenate the team, but it makes sense if you think about it carefully. If you don't find a bunch of rookies, but find veterans, then the Magic players will be older than head coach Paul."
Edison is big, and the team will definitely be difficult to manage by then. In other words, the Magic are determined to mess up from now on, and set their goals for next season. Then they really set a new record for the league's mess."
Edison was sitting in the box, and all the comments from the outside could not affect his good mood. No one in the world now knows how much Magic made from this deal. It was like robbing the Eagle.
"The Orlando Magic selected Josh Smith with the 17th pick, to Oak Hill College."
In fact, Josh Smith was quite disappointed when he fell out of the lottery, but he didn't expect God to give him a surprise right away, and the Magic immediately chose him.
Josh walked onto the stage excitedly, and Howard was also very excited. He said before that the two of them are very good friends. When they were young, they dreamed of playing together in the NBA. Unexpectedly, the dream came true. The two hugged each other tightly.
They slapped each other hard on the back, and their excitement was beyond words.
Winning Howard, Iguodala and Josh Smith. Edison's team goal has basically been completed, center Howard, power forward Josh Smith, small forward Marion, shooting guard Iguodala, point guard Nash
Not to mention other aspects of this cosmetic surgery, the rebounding ability is definitely the best in the league, and the shot-blocking ability can be directly said to be the first in the league. The defensive ability is also good, after all, there are 4 individual defensive experts. As for the offense
, it seems that Edison has already appeared in front of his eyes, the scene of these Energizer boys constantly bombing the basket under the command of Nash.
Edison laughed so hard that his mouth watered. He was as lewd as he could be.
