God's hand behind the scenes

Chapter 434

Seeing Chang Wei expressing his determination as if swearing, Brown and Dumars couldn't help laughing. After a while, Brown said helplessly: "Chang, we haven't found a suitable player, and there is some truth in your words, so let's look at the draft first." Bar!"

The flow of free agents during the offseason in previous years can be said to be quite frequent, but this year it is like a pool of stagnant water, with occasional waves.The Pistons' inaction did not attract much attention, because most teams in the league did the same. Everyone's eyes were all on the upcoming lottery draw, and everyone hoped to change the fate of the team.

Compared with other lottery teams, the Grizzlies can be said to be the toughest among the toughest. Although the Spanish insider Gasol they selected the previous year showed good talent, they must take this year's pick Handed over to the Pistons, it cannot be used to help the team further accelerate the reconstruction.It is precisely for this reason that the general manager of the Grizzlies was criticized by the local media in Memphis. Some Grizzlies fans even ran to the entrance of the arena and held up a banner asking the team to replace the general manager, embarrassing the team.

But no matter how they toss, the Grizzlies' draft picks cannot be returned to their own hands, no matter how high they are, they have to be given to the Pistons.The fans could only curse under their breath, hoping that the Grizzlies representative would pick a less high pick in the lottery, so that they might feel better and not think that they had suffered such a big loss loss.

Soon came the day of the lottery draw ceremony. Representatives of 13 lottery teams came to the league's official lottery venue. Of course, the worst face of all was the general manager of the Grizzlies and the famous Lakers Jerry. West, that is, the logo man of the NBA, the portrait on the league logo is based on him.

In fact, the Grizzlies still have a chance to keep the pick, but it is very slim, because they have to win the No. [-] lottery.In addition to the No. [-] pick, any draft pick will be sent to the Pistons.When the host announced the start of the lottery draw, everyone who followed the lottery ceremony held their breath, no matter on the spot or in front of the TV.

For teams that aren't that bad and don't make the playoffs, it's almost impossible to move up because the odds of that happening are so slim.From the 13th pick to the 6th pick, nothing went wrong. Each team basically got their own draft picks according to their own record rankings.

However, when the fifth pick was drawn, a sudden change occurred!Logically speaking, this is the pick of the Grizzlies, because their record ranks fifth from the bottom among all teams, but unexpectedly, it is not them who are drawn out, but their record is one less than theirs. Clippers!Originally, West had closed his eyes, but when he heard "Los Angeles Clippers", he opened them suddenly, his mouth opened as if he could plug a light bulb, which means that the Grizzlies' draft pick has improved!
The Clippers' lottery representative's face froze. He didn't expect that he would be the first to suffer, but he couldn't get angry under the eyes of everyone.Moreover, the lottery draw was originally a ceremony to test luck, and getting the fifth lottery with the fourth-to-last record can only prove their bad luck, and now the league has no chance to cheat in the legend.

Before everyone could react, it was the fourth pick. Surprisingly, this time it was still not the Grizzlies, but the Heat, who also had a worse record than them.West still has not recovered, but the Pistons management and coaching staff in front of the TV are even more tormented. Is the Grizzlies going to take the No. [-] pick this time?This is so nonsense!

Chang Wei also felt a bit pained. This time the lottery draw was obviously different from the previous life. The Grizzlies were able to give the Pistons the second pick in the previous life, so why couldn't they draw themselves the No. [-] lottery?But if that's the case, the Pistons' previous preparations will be in vain. This is the first time Chang Wei is worried about his rebirth, for fear of disrupting his plan.

Fortunately, the host did not let him suffer for too long, and finally read the name of the Memphis Grizzlies at the third pick.On the TV screen, West smiled reluctantly. After all, he lost a lottery pick in vain, and no one would be happy.In stark contrast to him, in the conference room of the Pistons, everyone cheered, and Chang Wei secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

There is nothing to say about the remaining two draft picks. The second pick was awarded to the Nuggets, the bottom one in the West, and the No. [-] pick was given to the Cavaliers, the bottom one in the East.When the lottery ceremony ended, everyone cast envious glances at the representatives of the Cavaliers. Chang Wei guessed that there must be many teams calling the Cavaliers management to ask the price of the No. [-] lottery, but only fools would sell it!

The Pistons will also not sell their No. [-] pick. Although it is one pick lower than in the previous life, it is still higher than the Heat. This also allows Chang Wei to safely and boldly suggest that the team choose Wade at this position.Of course, this is not to say that Hamilton is not an excellent shooting guard, but compared with "The Flash", he is still inferior.

Now Chang Wei's only concern is whether the Nuggets will take Wade first. If so, the Pistons can only choose Anthony. With Thomas, Chang Wei does not consider letting the team choose Bosh.As for Milicic, let alone, although this big man certainly has his advantages, is it possible that he can still be stronger than the grown-up Wade?

However, after the Nuggets got the No. 7 pick in the previous life, they still chose Anthony. This time they should still choose him with the second pick, which made Chang Wei more or less relieved.The next thing to do is to invite Wade to try out. Chang Wei knows that the Bulls who got the No. [-] pick have always wanted to win Wade, a native of Chicago, but unfortunately their pick is still too low.

Then what Chang Wei has to do next is to invite Wade to Detroit for a trial training in the name of the Pistons. He believes that this guy's performance will definitely impress Brown and Dumars.Especially Brown, the old man finally began to face up to the player's talent after being eliminated by the Raptors in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Presumably Wade, a rookie who is arrogant but lacks skill, mentality and execution ability, will be favored by him.Moreover, in the past three seasons, Brown has intentionally or unintentionally transformed into a head coach who is willing to give opportunities to young people. It will be staged again, otherwise, what rookies will the Pistons train?
