NBA: Art is trash talk

Chapter 391 07 Draft Conference
The topic of the Celtics' Big Three has exploded for several days. After all, this is the first time in NBA history that these three superstars at their peak have joined together.

Some fans are expecting this combination to play a wonderful performance, and some fans are complaining about this kind of grouping.

After a few days, the heat dropped slightly.

"Now we can announce the news."

Bryant asked.

He is eager to announce his transfer, which means a new beginning.

At the same time, he hasn't been on the hot news for a long time, and needs some exposure to maintain his popularity.

If this continues, fans will easily ignore him.

"Tomorrow is the NBA draft."

Bryant's agent reminded.

It doesn't seem like a good time to announce the news at this time.

In any case, the draft is only once a year, and there are many people who pay attention.

In desperation, Kobe could only wait.

On June 6, the 29 NBA Draft was held in New York.

He Xinghui didn't go to the scene. Anyway, the Clippers' draft position is not high, and they can't pick any potential superstars, so they don't need to work hard.

He Xinghui and O'Neal watched the live broadcast together in front of the TV. After watching the talent show, they were about to go to the crew to start filming.

Their movie has done all the preparatory work, and now they are waiting for the actors to be in place.

"This Oden is not bad, he may be able to take over from me in the future."

The draft has not yet started, and O'Neal expressed his views on this rookie class.

However, his opinions are basically based on the analysis of the media.

Now the media is advocating that Oden is the great emperor, and his nickname is louder than the little emperor.

In this kind of hype in the media, no one will think that Oden can't play, and the same is true for O'Neal.

"I don't think he can."

He Xinghui laughed.

At present, he is probably the only one in the world who knows that Oden will not be able to play and will be ruined by injuries.

Moreover, it is still the kind of unavoidable injury.

"That's right, if you want to achieve my level of achievement, it's too difficult to succeed me."

O'Neill laughed out loud, he obviously misunderstood what He Xinghui meant, and thought He Xinghui was praising him.

As everyone knows, what He Xinghui meant was that Oden couldn't play.

"."

He Xinghui was speechless for a while, let’s just say it, it’s easy to hurt O’Neill’s heart, don’t point it out, it’s awkward to see O’Neill in such a frightened manner.

Then, the draft began.

First up was the Trail Blazers.

The Blazers manager, holding the No. [-] lottery, handed over the envelope happily.

"Holding the No. [-] pick means that the team's record is bad. I don't understand why he can laugh so proudly."

He Xinghui complained.

"."

O'Neill.

At the scene, Stern opened the envelope and read: "The Blazers' choice is-Greg Oden, congratulations Greg, congratulations to the Blazers."

"Damn it, they still chose Auden."

The manager of the Supersonics scolded, originally he also wanted Oden.

It just so happens that Ray Allen is gone, and Oden can be trained as the cornerstone of the team.Both strength and popularity are perfect for a team in a small city like the Sonics.

Unfortunately, Oden is gone now.

In desperation, they could only choose a spare tire and put a card with Kevin Durant's name in the envelope.

At the scene, Oden had already come to the stage to take his hat, hugged Stern, and thanked XXX for his speech by the way.

Now Auden is full of spirits, and he speaks very generously in his testimonials.

A few minutes later, the Sonics manager handed the envelope up.

"The Sonics' pick is, Kevin Durant."

Stern announced.

This is also a choice with no suspense. In the past few months, Oden and Durant have been among the top two draft prospects.

"I knew it was the result."

Some viewers complained.

For the fans, they still hope to see some upset choices, which is interesting.

The third came to the stage was the Eagles, and they chose Al Horford.

This is also a choice that everyone expected. After all, Al Horford led the team to win the NCAA championship for two consecutive years and beat Oden's team in the schedule.

In that game, Al Horford only scored 7 points against Oden, but he scored 11 points and 11 rebounds.

There is nothing wrong with the choice of the Eagles. Al Horford can also play in the future. He has won five All-Stars in history.

The Celtics got the fourth pick, but they traded the pick for Ray Allen.

So, now this pick is the Sonics.

The Sonics got two high-ranked draft picks at once by relying on bad performance and trading.

The Sonics' pick was Mike Conley.

"I'll go, the Grizzlies are miserable."

He Xinghui said something that O'Neal couldn't understand, because the draft pick in the original time and space belonged to the Grizzlies.

Now that Mike Conley is intercepted, can the Grizzlies still rise?

"Yes, you abducted their Gasol."

O'Neill said.

The fifth pick was originally the Knicks, but they were traded to the Bucks.

The Bucks chose Jeff Green.

"interesting."

He Xinghui continued to speak words that O'Neill could not understand.

He really wanted to know where Ah Lian would go next.

Soon he knew the answer.

grizzly.

The manager of the Grizzlies has long been looking for the next He. After looking around in China, he found Yi Jianlian who is relatively close.

Compared with He Xinghui's talent in the draft, Yi Jianlian is many times better.

The Grizzlies manager thought that even if Yi Jianlian couldn't create miracles like He Xinghui, as long as he could display his current talent, this choice would be a good one.

It is enough to average 20 points per game, be selected as an All-Star, and harvest the Chinese market.

"How is your compatriot's strength?"

O'Neill asked.

"If the Grizzlies are determined and willing to train him and give him enough possessions, it will be no problem to average 15 points per game. But his defense may not be up to standard, so it's hard to say."

He Xinghui analyzed.

Yi Jianlian's rookie in the original time and space only scored 8.2 points in his first year, but He Xinghui now dares to predict 15 points boldly, because he has already matched Mark and Yi Jianlian.

Because of He Xinghui's relationship, Mark also likes to sign Chinese players.

Because of He Xinghui's relationship, Yi Jianlian naturally chose Mark Collins first.

As long as He Xinghui makes a few points, Mark will not mess around like Dan Feigen, which is a good thing for Yi Jianlian.

As long as Yi Jianlian has a good relationship with the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies will definitely be willing to train him.

Durant's shooting percentage in his first year as a rookie was only 43%, and Yi Jianlian's shooting percentage was 42.2%.

As long as the Grizzlies are willing to gamble and give Yi Jianlian more ball rights, maybe he can get a different life from the original time and space.

"15 points, a bit poor."

O'Neill said.

"How many points did you average last season?"

He Xinghui complained.

With 15 points, in a garbage team like the Grizzlies, he can be regarded as the second leader. In most teams, he is the third leader, an absolute star.

"I think I was 24+14 when I was a rookie."

O'Neill doesn't mention the present, he can only miss the past glory.

"I remember it seems to be 23.4+13.9."

He Xinghui said.

"Remove the decimal point for a while and you can die?"

O'Neill is angry.

"That's also 23+13."

He Xinghui.

At the same time, on the other side of the world, Chinese fans began to celebrate together.

"Sixth pick, this position is already very good."

"Last year's Rookie of the Year, Roy, was the No. 6 pick."

"Grizzlies, small place, garbage team."

"The garbage team is good. They have the ball. When Brother Xing went to the Clippers, the Clippers were also a garbage team. Maybe the UAE can lead the Grizzlies to rise like Brother Xing."

"This is a bit exaggerated. People like Brother Xing are born martial arts prodigy. This kind of person is one in a million. Obviously, Ah Lian is not."

Fans' expectations for Yi Jianlian are not particularly high, fans are satisfied if they can reach the height of Yao Ming, and they have no extravagant hope that Yi Jianlian will become the next He Xinghui.

Dreaming also has to pay attention to propriety.

At the draft, Yi Jianlian was very happy to go on stage.

Before the start of the draft, Mark explained to him the benefits of going to the bottom team, so Yi Jianlian did not dislike the Grizzlies.

Moreover, the Grizzlies made a lot of promises to him before the draft, full of sincerity.

It all made him feel comfortable.

"Come on big man, I hope you can be as good as He."

Stern gave a word of encouragement.

Subsequently, the Timberwolves selected 'company commander' Brewer.

The Bobcats selected Brandon White, a career average of 7 points per game.

This pick, this score, Jordan's vision is still stable.

Then the Bulls chose Joakinoah, a man who won the best first team, best defensive first team, best defensive player, and two-time All-Star.

He Xinghui didn't know if Jordan had any regrets.

Next came a string of people He Xinghui had no impression of, until the Wizards selected Nick Young.

Until the 30th, the Clippers chose Marc Gasol.

It's not that Paul Gasol went through the back door, nor is He Xinghui deliberately giving Gasol face, mainly because he knows that among the players behind, Marc Gasol is better.

Although Marc Gasol will not be able to log into the NBA next season, it is not a big problem. Anyway, the Clippers are not short of people now, and Elkin is worrying about how to reject those veterans who want to win the championship.

"I'm going, this is Gasol's brother? He definitely went through the back door."

"Why doesn't Brother Xing let the management choose Sun Yue? Sun Yue is much better than that stupid big guy."

"Maybe the Clippers need a center. It is said that Perkins is already testing the free market and wants to leave the team."

"Damn, he really thinks he's awesome. After leaving the Clippers, he's nothing."

Chinese fans have a lot of opinions on the Clippers' selection.

Entering the second round, each team took turns to pick out garbage, or Taobao.

The media said that this year is the year of the draft, but in fact, there are not many players played this year, that is, Durant, Conley, and Marc Gasol.

No.40, Sun Yue, who Chinese fans care about, was selected by the Lakers.

Fans think that this is because the Lakers were suppressed by the Clippers too badly, and they also want to choose a Chinese player as a mascot to attract the Chinese market.

Their guess is a little bit right.

The Lakers chose Sun Yue because of Sun Yue's strength and potential.

Last season, Sun Yue played well in the ABA League and was selected to the first team.

Of course, the most important thing is that Fisher left the Lakers. This guy saw that the Lakers were out of play, and chose to escape again.

The Lakers are short of point guards, so it's not bad to choose Sun Yue to train them.

What if Sun Yue suddenly awakens like He Xinghui, the mysterious Eastern player, everything is possible, isn't it?
"Hey, now we have 4 players playing in the NBA, breaking the record."

"Chinese basketball is officially on the rise."

"Don't worry, Chen Jianghua has also signed up for the draft. If he is also selected, we will have 5, and we can make up a starting set."

"Chen Jianghua is a bit suspenseful, and he hasn't performed too hard yet."

Chinese fans are talking, and the draft has come to an end.

On the 59th, the Mavericks picked a trash.

On the 60th, the Clippers chose Chen Jianghua.

This is what He Xinghui meant.

Anyway, the team's backup guard Joseph is useless now, and it doesn't matter if it is replaced by Chen Jianghua.

Chen Jianghua may not have many opportunities to perform when he comes to the Clippers, but he can train with the team for a season, and he can improve to some extent, which will definitely be better than the original time and space.

"Good guy, Xiao Chen must have gone through the back door too. Without Brother Xing's care, he would definitely lose the election."

"The Clippers are going too far, nepotism is not advocated."

"It's really too much. Other teams regard the draft as a very serious matter. The Clippers are completely child's play. This is a reinforcement lineup? This is clearly a sophistication of the world. Damn it, why am I not Brother Xing's cousin?"

"At this rate, the NBA will soon be our world."

"What about your compatriot, how is your strength?"

O'Neill continued to gossip.

"The high probability is to make up the number."

He Xinghui said.

"It's so arrogant. You plan to bring these rookies and Barkley, who is panting when he walks, against the Celtics' Big Three?"

O'Neill complained.

If the Clippers' Perkins and Mobley leave and add Chen Jianghua and Barkley, the strength of the lineup will undoubtedly drop a lot.

"Don't get me wrong, they are the ones fighting against me, and I am the big devil, the challenged one."

He Xinghui said.

"I feel that you are playing a bit off, which is very dangerous. It is still difficult to become the best in history with only one championship. You have to win at least four like me."

Inadvertently, O'Neill looked back at the past glory.

"You don't understand this, right? Leading a group of rookies to win the championship is highly evaluated. You have won 4 championships. Does anyone think you are better than Jordan? The fans will only say that you rely on Kobe and Wade. And As for me, some fans have already said that I surpassed Jordan in one championship, and when I win another championship, I will be the first in history, and I can retire early, and I don’t plan to play for too long.”

He Xinghui said.

"Although what you say makes sense, why do I sound so unhappy?"

O'Neill complained.

"Stop talking, let's go and start our movie."

He Xinghui.

"Cool, I can't wait, especially now that I know Vanessa will be in."

O'Neill chuckled, the smile was quite wretched, and he didn't know what was going on in his head.

"."

He Xinghui was speechless.
