Chapter 166 The Eve of the Draft
The NBA draft has attracted the attention of the world.On the one hand, the overall level of this year's rookies is very high, and there are several who can be the core value of cultivation.There are not only super rookies from the United States like top pick Derrick Rose and Michael Beasley, but also CBA Finals MVP Ying Xiong from the Pacific West Coast and an ancient civilization, and Italian striker Danilo Gallinari from the Apennine Peninsula. .

With the increasing internationalization of the NBA, more and more outstanding international players have poured into the NBA, making it a more competitive and internationalized basketball league.The NBA is also sparing no effort in promoting the NBA brand to the world.

In May, the lottery ceremony of the draft ended, and the draft picks of each team were also determined.Among them, the Chicago Bulls won the No. 5 pick, the Miami Heat won the No. [-] pick, and the Minnesota Timberwolves won the No. [-] pick.

After the lottery, many teams contacted Yingxiong's agent Bill Duffy, expressing their strong interest in Yingxiong.Of course, no matter how "strong" interest you show, if you don't choose in the end, it will be meaningless.On the other hand, even if some teams did not show "strong" interest before the draft, they may not be selected.Because it is very likely that their favorite player will be intercepted. If you are a backup plan, you are likely to be selected.The draft is like a trade fair for commodities, and teams with high draft picks are eligible to be selected first.

According to the information held by Bill Duffy's team, the Chicago Bulls with the No. [-] pick seem to be determined to win the core guard Derrick Rose from the University of Memphis.You know, Derrick Rose is a native of Chicago, and the Bulls also need a point guard.

The Timberwolves with the No. 10 pick are the team with the highest possible pick.Among the top 6, the most likely candidates are the New York Knicks with the 9th pick and the Charlotte Bobcats with the 25th pick.Yao Ming's owner, the Houston Rockets, is also interested in Xiangxiong.However, their pick is [-]. It is unlikely that Yingxiong will fall to this position.

Ying Xiong is very satisfied with the analysis of Bill Duffy's team.According to Bill Duffy's team's forecast, if all goes well, Yingxiong will be selected in the top 10 of the first round.Of course, falling to the middle of the first round is not ruled out, but the possibility of falling out of the top 20 is not very high.

Ying Xiong asked Bill Duffy whether he might be selected by the Milwaukee Bucks with the 8th overall pick.What Bill Duffy meant was extremely unlikely, unless something unexpected happened.Because the relationship between the Bucks and Yi Jianlian is not good.There have been rumors recently that the Bucks are likely to trade both Yi Jianlian and Bobby Simmons.Simmons is a contract that the Bucks have been trying to get rid of, and there is a position overlap between Yi Jianlian and Villanueva.According to the current situation of the team, Yi Jianlian is more likely to leave.

In view of this, the Bill Duffy team believes that the Bucks will not use this lottery pick to select a Chinese player for the second consecutive year.

Such an analysis is reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it.And the Bill Duffy team does not want Yingxiong to go to the Milwaukee Bucks.Milwaukee, located on the west bank of Lake Michigan, does not have a large Asian Chinese market, nor is it a big city like Chicago and Boston, nor does it have a glorious team history, and even the strength of the current team lineup is not high or low.For this kind of team, it is better for high-ranked rookies to go to those rebuilding teams, at least they have enough playing time to exercise.

Bill Duffy's team most hopes that Yingxiong will go to the New York Knicks with the sixth overall pick.As the largest city in the United States, New York City, Yingxiong's commercial value can be fully developed.If he can become the core or one of the core of the team, it will be bright for his future.

Of course, the Los Angeles Clippers with the 7th pick are not bad either.Los Angeles is a big city with a well-developed entertainment industry. If Ying Xiong can join the Clippers, it would be a good opportunity.

But everything will have to wait for the draft to announce the answer.No matter how well planned, it cannot affect the result.

2008年NBA选秀将于2008年6月27日在美国纽约市的麦迪逊广场花园的剧院内举行。选秀大会透过美国ESPN电视台向全世界203个国家和地区进行直播。
