Card Bishop of Basketball

Chapter 73
The selection of Martial Saint in the first round was the result of Meng Yifan's deliberation.

Although it is said that the former time-space Wusheng came to the Suns, he contradicted the head coach of the Suns at the time, Danny Angie, a guy named Angie who was an angel with a devil in his heart, and directly kicked Wusheng out of the team.

However, the turning point came. At that time, the Suns had Finley in the second and third positions, and there was no shortage of people, but now, Finley has gone to Toronto to become the Dragon King. This problem will come, if Danny Angie , hold your breath, hold back the uncle Wu Sheng, then where can I find such a high-quality player as Wu Sheng?

As for whether Wu Sheng will come to his subordinates to get nervous, Meng Yifan has already figured it out, let the bus talk to Wu Sheng first, and then come forward to chat with Wu Sheng after the chat, but the warrior still needs someone who can calm down These guys are...

After checking the second round of the 97 draft in the original time and space, Meng Yifan found an interesting guy, and quickly asked Kamil to contact the Lakers and buy their second round pick with cash. The Lakers also asked for it directly. US$20 is said to be needed to buy a high-end printing machine to distribute flyers.

Well, it's a pity that this guy is not as strong as Korver, otherwise they would have become a legend in the NBA. At his peak, this guy was only a qualified starting player. He exchanged 20 for draft picks, signed a child labor contract, and earned his worth. Trading a first-round pick would be nice, too.

With the fourth pick in the second round, Meng Yifan chose Mark Jackson just like the original time and space. Well, here is a popular science. Among the two Mark Jacksons of the Warriors, one is a point guard and the other is an inside center.

Meng Yifan's newly drafted center, although he was drafted in 97, did not make his debut in the NBA until 00 due to various reasons, such as injuries.

Then after Meng Yifan chooses this product, the commentator will probably collapse. Visually, the commentary of the Warriors in the new season is as follows:
Mark Jackson grabbed a defensive rebound!He handed the ball to Mark Jackson, and after Mark Jackson gave Mark Jackson a pick-and-roll in the frontcourt, Mark Jackson passed down, Mark Jackson had quick eyes and hands, and made a fast ball, assisting Mark Jackson with a flying dunk.

Hmm... you put the matryoshka here, and the audience directly reported backhand that the commentator was out of his mind.

With the fifth overall pick in the second round, the Kings unexpectedly selected Cedric Henderson, a small forward with a height of 2 meters.

Why is it unexpected? Because the king didn't choose this player in the original time and space. This player is actually the player Meng Yifan planned to choose.

Meng Yifan's original plan was pretty good. One draft conference brought just the right set to the Warriors. Billups played point guard, Wu Sheng shot guard, Henderson small forward, Mark Jackson power forward, plus himself After thinking about it, he found that the guy played center forward, which was quite nice, but Henderson was cut off, which Meng Yifan didn't expect.

However, Meng Yifan did not suspect that someone leaked the secret or something. Only he knew about this draft plan. The Kings probably chose Henderson based on their own lineup. , Can shoot three-pointers and defend, it is simply a weakened version of Philadelphia Ma Jian.

Although Ma Jian was amazing in the series against the Heat, and almost didn't kill his own team, Ma Jian's hard power is obvious to all. Scores in chaotic battles where the ball is quickly switched, even if it is not suitable for being a master, but it is definitely more than enough to be a perfect second master assistant.

Meng Yifan didn't feel panicked. What is the traverser's system for? It's just for pretending to slap your face... Ah bah, it's just to solve this special situation. Meng Yifan looked through the 97 times With the performance of the round show, he found a more reliable player in an instant.

One is Chris Crawford, a 2-meter combo forward who can play both small and big forwards. At the peak level, he can be regarded as a so-so starting-level player.Well, for a pick that doesn't slip in the second round, it's not bad to have a qualified starter.

With the support of systematic training, he can quickly reach the peak level, and then sell it at that time. Other teams think that they will be the starters if they are trained casually. It is definitely worth digging deeper. Unexpectedly, this has already been discovered by Meng Yifan Formed players…

Another reliable player is the point guard selected by the Kings in the original time and space, Anthony Johnson. His name is really big, and his strength is that of a starting point guard level. By.

One thing worth mentioning about this guy is that his NBA career is quite long, a full 13 years, a small point guard with floor skills, has never suffered any serious injuries in his career, and has a good maintenance status.

Another point worth mentioning is that after the former king of time and space selected him, because of the good performance of this kid, he directly squeezed out the No. 10 pick that year, and became the starting point guard for the king at that time for a whole season.

He even said that if Meng Yifan wanted to do something, it would be fine to take all the big men in the second round. Apart from the reliable rookie he discovered at the end of the second round, there was another big man who performed well. , but the NBA career is too short.

Montenegro's 2m center forward, Pedrag Drobiak, this big man is remarkable because he has a three-point shooting rate of about 11%. The peak is also a starting-level insider, but the rebound protection The aspect is too bad, training and training to sell the first round of picks is the right answer...

However, Philadelphia, which cast a wide net, helped Meng Yifan solve his difficulty in selection. Last year, with the help of Meng Yifan, he selected many reliable inside players. As a result, this year, Philadelphia also had a lot of second-round picks, so they directly cast the net everywhere. , directly netted away Chris Crawford, and Pedrago Drobiak.

Well, to avoid entanglement with Meng Yifan, the 14th pick in the second round won Anthony Johnson, and then the Lakers won Mark Blunt in the second round.

Mark Blunt, a 2 meter tall insider, has served as the team's starting insider for many seasons, and his performance is conscientious. For various reasons, he only landed in the NBA in 13, and he has also played in the NBA for 00 years.

However, the reason why this guy failed to land in the NBA was not because of contracts with other clubs or injuries. It was simply that the SuperSonics management at the time had the mentality of trying to pick up an insider and got him back.

After picking it up, he gave up the product without giving him any time to perform, so Blunt has been playing in leagues like the Development League until 00 when no team was willing to give him a chance...

From here we can also see that the Supersonics, including the later Thunder, have a good vision of the scout uniform team, but the coaches don't know how to use it...
