Legend Raiders

Chapter 1440: Draft and Trade Together

Amazing.

Sitting on the sofa at home, Qin Tao couldn't help applauding the previous transaction.

These transactions may not be high-level, but they are enough to show the spirit of these league underdogs.

honestly.

What they do is really important.

With the current level of development of the league, if you want to buy suitable stars, you really don't have to have money.

Since it is a weak team, it must be that the team's bargaining chips are not very sufficient.

And they are all teams that have been rebuilt for several years. It is not cost-effective to spend a lot of money to adjust the team.

one more.

Now there are quite a few teams that have completed rebuilding, and almost half of the relationship is related to the players they cultivated.

What's more, in these years of drafts, there are really many newcomers that can be brought out!
Don't say far.

Let's just say that the Celtics got Jokic.

think about it.

In a championship-level team, Jokic can get such a good opportunity. Apart from his own hard work and talent, the team really gave him the opportunity, and he got it.

in this way.

This year is another draft year that looks good. As long as one or two, or even only one player can be found, the team that picks him will be sure to make a profit.

Otherwise, this year's picks will be so expensive?
Just one lottery of this round, the price is as high as 200 million!
Now.

The trade that Qin Tao wants to applaud the most is naturally between the Suns and the Kings.

The Kings can be said to be the most active team at present. They first completed the transaction with the Hornets, and then completed the transaction with the Suns. Their appetite seems not small.

And the deal between them and the Suns will send them the No. 13 pick, and the Suns will send Bogdan Bogdanovic's signing rights, as well as this year's No. 28 and No. [-] first-round picks Give it to the king.

have to say.

The Kings have a bit of a reverse upgrade idea.

After all, the picks in their hands are the top ten this year, and there are still many talented players to choose from.

But they traded down and got so many chips from the Suns, it can be seen that this year's high-ranking picks are really not cheap.

at the same time.

The Suns also have the name of the player they spent a lot of chips on.

The Kings acquired Marquese Chriss from the University of Washington for the Suns, and then the deal was considered complete.

have to say.

Marquez Chris hasn't played a game yet. For rookie players, his worth is not too low.

If you convert the Suns' chips into players, he alone is worth three players.

Even if those three are fringe players, they add up to some weight.

And with the top eight picks and the transactions that have come to an end, the next few candidates in the small green room will be revealed.

Due to a trade made by the Raptors at the time, they still got the ninth pick despite their good performance this season.

When the trade between the Kings and the Suns fell on the scene, the Raptors' choice came up very aptly.

They are about to win is the young center Jakob Boertel from Austria.

This rookie from Austria has won some heavyweight awards in college.

For example, the Skyhook Kareem Award is almost the best center forward award in the United States.

It's not a problem to enter the United States for a while in two years of college.

And the most rare thing is that his playing attitude is very good. As a white center, he plays very toughly. This is already very good for the current basketball concept.

After all, real traditional centers are very rare now, and Bertel still has a certain mid-range shooting rate and good low-post offensive skills. Presumably the Raptors won him because they wanted to find a player for Valanciunas. Qualified substitute.

But this is somewhat wasteful, but it depends on how the Raptors operate and whether there will be any trades next.

The tenth-ranked Milwaukee Bucks did not make people wait long, and they gave their own choices.

The player's name is Thorne Maker, a center player who was born in South Sudan and also has Australian nationality.

He may not be familiar to most people, but the draft road he has walked along the way is somewhat different.

I don't know if it's because of his family, but after graduating from a high school in Canada, he didn't choose to go to university, but waited for a year and directly participated in the draft.

have to say.

He is very confident in his talent, but looking at the current basketball style, it seems not uncommon for the Bucks to win him.

He has a height of [-] meters and a very good wingspan. Although his body is a bit weak, he can pull out from the outside to shoot three-pointers, and he can also complete some frame protection inside or finish tasks.

in this way.

In terms of his technical characteristics alone, he is very suitable for this basketball era.

It's just that before he participated in the draft, he was not favored by others, and was generally placed at the end of the first round by some experts.

At this stage, the Bucks will take him with the [-]th overall pick. It is conceivable that they have strong expectations for Meck!

After all, the new core of their team, Antetokounmpo Antetokounmpo, is very similar to him. He was also born in South Sudan, but has grown into a super core in the team.

And after the Bucks gave their roster, a blockbuster deal suddenly happened on the scene!

This season can be called the miraculous Thunder team, and they actually sent their current No. [-] player, Serge Ibaka, to the Magic!
And with Zach Lavin, they actually traded from the Magic for Victor Oladipo, Yin Sanyi Yasuowa, and the No. 11 pick of the Magic this year!

have to say.

This blockbuster deal of the Thunder is completely incomprehensible!
After all, they played an astonishing season, and with the existing players, they almost defeated the Warriors. How strong is this combat effectiveness!
But now what?

Even though Ibaka seems to have reached the peak of talent at this stage, he is still one of the best power forwards in the league!

His defense and gradually comprehensive skills are also adapting to the current era!

But they said that one of the heroes was traded away after trading, which is simply a self-destructive operation!
but.

When Qin Tao watched the deal happen with a frown, he had some disagreements in his mind.

If you insist on finding a reasonable reason for the Thunder, then Ibaka's departure is to make way for Westbrook and Zach LaVine!
Even if Ibaka isn't a player who must have the ball in his hands, it seems that some people don't want their status to be damaged!
In exchange for Oladipo, a guard with a very strong offensive ability, people have to fantasize about it.

Zach Laven has finished his second year. Although there are still two years left on his rookie contract, why isn't this the Thunder's method against him?

of course.

This is all a weak analysis, and we can only see some signs of it after next season.

Under the shock of this transaction, while the scene was full of noise, the No.11 pick that originally belonged to the Magic team finally had their candidate!
They almost didn't have any waiting, and directly took down the legend of the Blazers, the son of Avidas Sabonis!
In this way, the Thunder will definitely focus on training him!
