NBA Please Answer 2007

Chapter 232 Shaq Retires, Signing Target
Other teams in the Western Conference are also not doing well. The Rockets will not even have a draft pick next season. In 2007, the Rockets Warriors Spanoulis exchanged for Luis Scola's signing rights, and at the same time gave away the 2009 second-round pick.

Last season, in order to get Ron Artest, the Rockets sent veteran Bobby Jackson and rookie Dongte Green to the Kings, and by the way, they also took the 2009 first-round pick.Originally, this deal was no problem. Artest and Luis Scola were worth the money. If McGrady and Yao Ming were not injured, this lineup could compete for the championship, but McGrady and Yao Ming were injured successively.

Artest is a free agent this year. With the Rockets full of wounded soldiers, it is not certain whether Artest will stay or not.Artest was also depressed, shit, I wanted to hug my thigh, but I didn't expect to become a thigh.

If it weren't for Artest's extraordinary performance in the Western Conference Finals, the Rockets would not have lost too badly. Therefore, Artest was also chased by various teams in the summer.Among them are the Heat, Magic, and Cavaliers, but Artest rejected them all. His goal is the championship.

The Heat are no longer among his options, and the Magic were swept away by the Warriors, and he doesn't like it either.The Cavaliers were good, but he didn't play the small forward position he likes, and he didn't want to go.Finally, when depressed, the Lakers extended an olive branch...

When the Rockets fans were depressed, their general manager Morey brought good news to everyone.The Rockets are planning to use some of the cash to bid for a draft pick from another team, and that cash is the rest of the money to send Francis.

The Warriors are busy with the internal shake-up, and they are going to be busy with the draft again.General manager West and his deputy general manager Richmond were very busy.Richmond originally didn't plan to continue, but Li Zhi's "quadruple double" made him feel hopeful, and I'm sorry for the Warriors if he doesn't continue.

Although Chris Mullin was GG, the trade for David Lee was also a failure, but he left a first-round pick.The draft pick traded by New York is the seventh pick, and Jerry West intends to use this pick to select Stephen Curry.

There was no need for Li Zhi to remind him of this. Nelson yelled next to Jerry West all day long, threatening "I will go on a hunger strike if I don't choose Curry", and finally Jerry West had to compromise.

O'Neal announced his retirement, ended his 17-year basketball career, and left the NBA, a place full of memories, with five championships.As soon as the news came out, the media was shocked, and countless media rushed to Oakland to interview O'Neill.

The reporter asked why O'Neal retired bravely, and O'Neal said calmly: "I am tired, and now I have won another championship, which is enough. I don't want to wait for those who can't move to be bullied by young people. Instead of doing that, it is better to retire like this."

O'Neal told the truth, without this championship, he might have continued to play for a few years, but now that his dream has come true again, he chose to leave.

In the conversation with Li Zhi, O'Neill revealed that he might be a commentator after retiring.Li Zhi smiled and nodded, no matter what, history hasn't changed much because of his existence.

O'Neal retired suddenly like this. The happiest thing is Jerry West, not because he is ruthless, but because the team has room for signings.O'Neal's contract next year is as high as 2000 million. With this 2000 million, the Warriors can make some reinforcements this summer.

In June, Li Zhi participated in the team's trade and draft plan, and led the team to win the championship. Jerry West did not ignore Li Zhi's opinion, not to mention that this person is a friend of the boss and the star of the team.

On June 6, Li Zhi, the coaching staff and the management discussed the possibility of trading together.

Nelson said: "I already have a candidate in the free market this year, Jason Kidd. He is a free agent now, and the Mavericks will definitely give him a big contract. Although the funds are abundant, we are not in a hurry. He is old. We can't take this risk. We can only wait for the Mavericks to make an offer first, and we will raise the price later."

Li Zhi was taken aback by what Nelson said lightly. The old man is really black-bellied. Mavericks, Nelson's old boss, would definitely yell at him if he knew that Nelson was cheating.

Li Zhi agreed with Nelson's plan. Jason Kidd can definitely come to the Warriors. He is too old to play for a few years. It is just right to come to the Warriors. He can be a teacher for Curry next season. When he can't play anymore, Curry will also mature.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Nelson was very happy.How evil Kidd is, Nelson knows best.Back when the Mavericks were coaching, Nelson coveted Kidd, his favorite type of player.He is a ball demon, can break fast and play positionally, and defends well. He has been selected to the league's best defensive team many times.

Now as I get older, my shots are getting more and more accurate, and my three-point shooting percentage has reached 40%, and my shots are mainly from the outside, without taking up the right to shoot.Nelson originally had his eye on Nash, but Nash was not in the contract year, and he would have to be scooped up at least next year, when the day lily was cold.

If Kidd can join this season, Li Zhi will be the happiest.Li Zhi is both a father and a mother this season. He is proficient in assists, scoring and defense. Others seem to be cool, but Li Zhi doesn't like this style of play. He likes scoring, just like Arenas.

Kidd averaged 9.0 points, 8.7 assists and 6.2 rebounds per game this season. With his help, the Mavericks won 50 games, but they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.

Kidd's only enemy is age. His physical strength is getting worse every year, but his passing and shooting are more accurate, and he has rich experience in the finals. He also led the team to the finals that year. If the Warriors continue to reach the finals this season, Kidd will bring great help.

On June 6, Li Zhi, West and Richmond attended the draft together.

The media said that 2009 was a small year for the draft. There were very few outstanding inside players and even forward players.

This year's rookie's overall strength and attention are predicted to be the worst rookie class in the past ten years, and there may not even be any player who becomes the team's leader and All-Star player.Even the 2000 rookie class, which now looks the worst, now seems to have a much better voice than this year's rookie.

ESPN's evaluation of this draft is "a paradise for role players." Even Li Zhi, a latecomer, was a little suspicious of himself by ESPN's professional analysis.

In the draft in the past five years, the number of centers this year is the least. Perhaps only two centers, Thabeet and Mullens, can enter the first round.It doesn't matter if there are fewer centers, and there are fewer forwards. If that team wants to choose an insider, just don't come.

The most guards in this draft are all kinds of guards, only you can't think of them, and you can't see them without the draft.Those who can shoot, those who can pass, those who can break through, those who can run fast, those who can jump high, and those who are strong, they have everything.

Many people think that this is not a good thing. Guards are not easy to train or choose, which is far more difficult than training an insider.Just look at Jordan. As long as you have a body and a good head, and the team gives you time, you can gain something.

The draft is about to start, and David Stern appeared again. With a professional smile, he talked about the talk show on the court, and thanked all the bosses and managers of the NBA over the past year.

New York is a big city, and the fans are also of high quality, and they all gave Stern applause.

Who was the "golden boy" Rubio selected?Will the Clippers really choose "Gilifen"?What pick did the Rockets trade to?Will the Nets use the No. 10 pick to select an insider or an outsider?

The 08-09 season can be described as a season of highs and lows for the New Jersey Nets. The team had a surprising start despite being underestimated, and even climbed to the middle of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

What player the Nets choose is what domestic fans are worried about. If they choose an insider, the future of the UAE will be unclear.
