All-round Athlete

Chapter 412 Cut off Hu (one more)

"Cuban wants to choose Zhang Guan!" Old Nelson was taken aback, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was quite reasonable and fit Cuban's character.

So the old Nelson continued: "Cuban has always liked Chinese players. When I was still the head coach of the Mavericks, Cuban once appointed Wang Dazhi to the Mavericks."

"Yeah, if it weren't for Nowitzki, Cuban even hoped that the UAE could come to the Mavericks. And now he has taken a fancy to Zhang Guan." Nelson Jr. then added: "A track and field athlete, coming to play in the NBA, It's unbelievable."

"If you choose Zhang Guan, it is tantamount to wasting a draft pick. Even the pick at the end of the second round is still valued by many people. After all, being selected is equivalent to having a stepping stone to enter the NBA." Old Nelson spoke.

"Fortunately, Carlisle vetoed Cuban's idea. Carlisle said that what he needs is a real player. After all, Carlisle has just been the coach of the team, so Cuban decided to respect Carlisle's opinion. I think Carlisle will tend to choose An outside scorer!" Nelson said.

"Actually, I got a gossip that Zhang Guan is likely to be elected. How about it, doesn't it sound crazy?" Old Nelson looked at his son with a surprised expression, and then said: "I talked to Pat a few days ago. - Riley passed the phone, and he told me that CAA had approached him, hoping that he could use the Heat's No. 52 pick to select Zhang Guan. But Pat Riley has resigned, so this matter does not matter. Not achieved."

"CAA Company?" Little Nelson thought about it, and immediately understood CAA Company's intentions. He couldn't help but sighed: "CAA Company has really spared no effort for the Chinese market!"

"That's right, but I guess CAA will definitely look for the next one. And it should choose a relatively large football market, so that it can play the value of Zhang Guan." Old Nelson said.

"Didn't CAA look for you? There should be a lot of Chinese around Oakland, right? If Zhang Guan goes to the Warriors, there should be a lot of market." Little Nelson asked.

"I have the No. 49 pick in my hand. After all, it is the top 50 pick. CAA probably thinks that it will pay a relatively high price. And I think they should have found a next home. Houston already has Yao, and the Lakers also Picked a Chinese last year, I think it will probably be Celtic!"

"The Celtics? They already have the Big Three of Garnett, Pierce and Allen, and they still have this year's championship. Isn't that enough?" Nelson Jr. said with some envy.

"Taking a big step into the Chinese market with a championship attitude, the price is only a 60th draft pick. The Celtics will definitely make a profit from this deal."

...

Domestically, the 2008 NBA draft is being broadcast live on the Internet.

For the ownership of the No. 1 pick, the media has been arguing for several months. Rose, Beasley, Lopez and other names have been favored by the media. When the day of the draft is approaching, Rose and Beasley are already considered to be scheduled. the top two.

The first name that NBA president David Stern read out was indeed Derrick Rose, and the Chicagoans laughed and cheered. They expected Rose to bring Chicago a second glorious era after Jordan.

Rose was selected by the Bulls, and the Heat chose Michael Beasley without hesitation, and then OJ-Mayo took the second place. The fourth-placed Thunder chose Westbrook instead of Jerry Bayless, who had been very popular before. History also proves that the Thunder made the best choice.

After that, the Grizzlies chose Love and traded him to the Timberwolves, followed by Gallinari, Eric Gordon and other familiar names Zhang Guan was also selected.

Bayless, who was considered to be the top ten pick before the game, was not selected until the 11th place, while Randolph, who was also considered the top ten, fell to the 14th place. Obviously, the teams in the NBA lottery area think that Randolph Dove was too thin to adapt to the confrontation in the NBA. In the end, the old Nelson of the Golden State Warriors got his wish and selected him.

Lopez, Hibbert, Ryan Anderson, Courtney Lee, Ibaka, Batum, the names of these players who will be fatal in the future appear in the top 30 one by one. In the broadcast screen, David Stern read out the thirtieth name, marking the end of the first round of the draft.

Taking advantage of the break, Zhang Guan poured a cup of tea, and then returned to the computer.

"The first round is over, and the second round will follow." Zhuge Wenbo pointed to the computer screen, and continued: "I think this second round is like gambling on stones. Most of them are waste stones. Occasionally You may not be able to make money if you see that ray of green, but if you really pick that piece of uncut jade that contains treasures, then you can make a lot of money."

"Hey, in this second round of this year, there are really precious gems in the rough!" Zhang Guan said with a smile.

"You're talking about yourself again!" Zhuge Wenbo thought it was Zhang Guan who was flattering himself, but Zhang Guan was smiling and didn't explain much.

On the live broadcast screen, NBA President David Stern has already taken a break, and Vice President Xiao Hua will announce the second round of the draft instead.

The Clippers selected DeAndre Jordan with the 35th overall pick, and the Spurs selected Dragic with the 45th overall pick. Both of them will become All-Star players in the future, and they can definitely be called this year's NBA. A legacy of the draft.

"The Dallas Mavericks spun Sean Foster at No. 51."

"The Miami Heat selected Darnell Jackson with the 52nd pick."

"The Houston Rockets chose Marty Lenning at No. 54. Zhang Guan is already No. 54, and there are six more to you."

"The San Antonio Spurs took James Gist at No. 57. You've got three more."

On the computer screen, NBA vice president Xiao Hua opened the next piece of paper with a smile on his face, and then his expression suddenly became surprised. He looked at the piece of paper carefully to confirm that he did not misread the name on it.

"What's wrong with Xiao Hua? What is he hesitating about?"

"I guess it must be that the names above are longer when spelled together, such as the names of people in the Middle East."

"Nonsense, the names of people in the Middle East can be abbreviated. I think it may be a Greek. Greek names are composed of dozens of letters, and they are very convoluted. Xiao Hua probably doesn't know how to go. Spell it!"

In the midst of everyone's speculation, Xiao Hua finally spoke: "The Los Angeles Lakers, the 58th pick is... Zhang Guan!"

"Zhang Guan? Doesn't sound like a Greek!"

"Why is this name so convoluted, it looks like an Asian name."

"Zhang Guan, remember that Chinese track and field athlete is called Zhang Guan! He is the fastest man in the world. He seems to have announced that he will participate in this year's NBA draft! He can really be hyped, a track and field athlete, participating in the NBA draft... ...Wait, what did Xiao Hua just say? Zhang Guan! Is it really Zhang Guan!"

...

In front of the computer, Zhang Guan also stood up in surprise.

"What's going on here? How is it the Los Angeles Lakers? Is this a cut-off?"
