NBA: Starting CBA system

"Yeah, RC Buford has had so many years of vision, how could the Spurs choose the wrong person??"

"I guess I'll just take a look. Is there anything wrong with FMVP recalling his feelings during last year's draft? To satisfy his regret of not being drafted."

"That's right, undrafted! He's showing off to the league, slapping the league in the face!"

"It's possible that many managers at the scene were also whipped repeatedly."

"Then he's too coquettish, this young man."

The Green Army scout sitting next to him knew yin and yang and deliberately said loudly:

"Hahahaha, he is indeed the man who forced James to leave early in the finals. He is really awesome when he comes to the draft."

Riley glanced back with sharp eyes like a falcon at this time, and all these scouts shut up! ! !

But Angie won’t shut up:

"Pat, he was supposed to be sitting next to you!"

"Old guy, mind your own business."

While the team and league officials were discussing, the backstage staff who adjusted the large-screen camera also pointed the camera at Jiang Hao. The rookies in the Little Green Room became agitated when they noticed that Jiang Hao was walking towards the Spurs seats in the stands. Before the live broadcast of the conference started, everyone rushed to Jiang Hao to take photos.

I can't help it, I can't help it!

This is a real star!

The superstar in their hearts!

They have not yet entered the league and become stars, but this is already an NBA superstar! !

Thick Eyebrow also made a video: "Yeah! Look who I saw, JIANG!! So lucky!"

Bill made scissor hands to the camera like a little fanboy, and also wanted to shake hands with gentleman Jiang Hao.

Waiters: "I can't wait to go to the NBA and beat you."

Jiang Hao patted him on the shoulder and retreated: "It's a good thing to be strong. Welcome to the NBA. Come on. I don't want to take the spotlight."

Then the giant Zhuang Shen who just rushed over directly saw Jiang Hao going to the Spurs' seat at lightning speed and sighed:

"Is this the speed of NBA guards?"

RC Buford asked Jiang Hao to sit next to him:

"I heard that your boy is planning a decisive victory thousands of miles away?? He just arrived this morning?"

Jiang Hao smiled bitterly:

"Hey, aren't you busy? Just catch up."

10 minutes later.

The lights in the arena were turned on, David Stern appeared in a suit, and the draft officially began!

The current draft has not been as commercialized as later generations, and even the broadcasting rights will not be purchased by the Central Government, because it is unnecessary, and the conference is long and does not attract attention.

And the most attention was paid to the lottery in the first half hour, and it became more and more boring as it went on.

How can today's rookies be as good at marketing as future generations? If they are strong, they will be strong. If they are not strong, they will just wait. If they lose, they will lose. If they go to other leagues and perform well, scouts will naturally see them.

There is no saying that the Lakers, who are marketed like Ball, have to choose. Fans don't know who the team will choose, and the final result will be the same.

This is indeed the case. Just like the name of the draft, it is essentially an internal allocation meeting, assigning this year's newcomers to each team one by one.

Netizens even found out that Jiang Hao went to the scene through mobile phone photos of New York audiences, which also triggered a wave of small-scale discussions. However, everyone thought more that Jiang Hao went there to have fun and reminisce about himself last year. But in For real ginger fans, this seems boring enough:

"From Jiang Hao's point of view, it would be more meaningful for him to interact with basketball fans in China for half a day than to suddenly return to the United States to reminisce about the draft. He must have a purpose for going there!"

But no one is interested, and the lottery picks are all hot. Who cares about the Spurs, who only have the 29th pick, and they can't make any splash with this pick.

Zeller was also snatched away by the Nuggets with the 20th pick, and the Mavericks selected Fournier first.

After a little analysis, Jiang Hao and RC Buford knew what the Mavericks meant. In the West, they wanted to defeat the Spurs. Therefore, the right way to strengthen the outside line is to strengthen the outside line when the Spurs have little weight inside.

Therefore, he did not choose Taylor Zeller, who he had pre-selected, but chose a sharpshooter from country F. In the eyes of the outside world, it meant that he was choosing instead of banning.

Commentary on Little Smith:

"It's hard to imagine what would happen if the Spurs got Fournier with the 29th pick! The chemical reaction and team tactics would definitely be seamless!"

Other managers also breathed a sigh of relief:

"so far so good!"

And when the 26th pick came, Middleton and others were still there. At the beginning, Jiang Hao also sent RC Buford a list of players he thought were good, but he didn't say anything about it.

So now when the Spurs' turn was about to come, they had an intensive discussion.

RC Buford:

"Middleton is really good. He is from Texas A\u0026M University. He studied here in Texas and he loves this place enough.

In the NCAA 2011-12 season, Khris Middleton averaged 13.2 points and 5.0 rebounds per game, ranking second on the team in both statistics, and became the subject of the Wooden and Naismith Awards.

He missed a total of 12 games due to a knee injury at the beginning of the season.

In the last 7 games in the Big 12, he averaged 16.1 points and 4.6 rebounds per game, shooting 44% from the field and 91% from the free throw line. In the Big 12 Tournament, he averaged 19.5 points and 4.5 rebounds per game. "

The Spurs scout next to him said nonstop.

When Jiang Hao and RC Buford heard about the knee injury, their hearts skipped a beat at the same time, but it actually didn't matter because he was the main player in college, but when he got to the Spurs, he would definitely develop in the direction of a pure shooter, and naturally they were interested in him. Projection skills.

"Where's Jae Crowder?"

"In the 2011-12 season, Jae Crowder averaged 17.5 points and 8.4 rebounds per game. He was elected the Big East Player of the Year, and was selected to the Associated Press All-American Second Team and the Big East All-Big East First Team."

"This PASS, OK?"

After hearing this data, RC Buford shook his head and looked at Jiang Hao with questioning eyes.

"Well, I don't want this."

Jiang Hao naturally knew what he meant. There was a big difference between Claude and Middleton. The main reason was that Claude was older than Middleton.

In the draft, being a year older makes all the difference.

Freshmen are the most popular.

Then we compared Button in the same position, and Middleton also had a higher priority. Button's data exploded, but unfortunately his shooting rate was not very good.

"Where's Draymond Green? I've seen this kid at the joint tryout. He plays very tough."

"Draymond Green attended Saginaw Trojans High School and led the team to two state championships.

In high school, Green averaged 20 points, 13 rebounds and 2 blocks per game, helping the team achieve a record of 27 wins and 1 loss, ranking fourth in the national high school rankings in the United States.

After graduating from high school, Michigan, Kentucky, Michigan State and Indiana all issued invitations to Green. "

"In the 2011-12 (senior) season, Green averaged 16.2 points, 10.6 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game, leading the Michigan State Spartans to win the Big Ten championship. This was the 13th time that Michigan State has won points. The district championship is the team’s third win in the past four years.

On March 5, 2012, Green was elected the Big Ten Player of the Year and was unanimously selected to the All-Big Ten First Team; on March 16, Green won the All-Big Ten Player of the Year award in the second round of the 2012 NCAA Tournament against Long Island University. He recorded his third triple-double in his college career, becoming the third player after Magic Johnson and Oscar Robertson to record two triple-doubles in the NCAA tournament.

Green is the first player since Duncan to average 15 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists per game. He was selected to the All-American team by the Associated Press, Sporting News, National Basketball Writers Association and CBS Sports. "

"Haha, there is Duncan here too." RC Buford nodded.

Now Dream Green is sitting a few rows in front of them. This player is predicted to be a second-round pick.

Because the advantages and disadvantages of this kind of senior player are obvious.

"My skills have taken shape, which is pretty good, but I am too old and too tall to play in the post."

Paul Hank also said that Chai Meng is only less than 2 meters tall, but he likes to play power forward and center. Why does he like it?

It's very simple, I can't dribble.

His dribbling, shooting, and offensive abilities with the ball are only at the level of an NCAA star player. He is a Rodman-type player.

"Where's Jermichael Green."

At this time, David Stern was already broadcasting the selection of the 28th pick, and league officials had been waiting for the Spurs' selection results beside RC Buford. The moment the 28th pick was completed, he was about to write down who the Spurs would select. I was quite nervous when I put the envelope in and handed it to David Stern.

JaMychal Green is also one of the rookies pre-selected by Jiang Hao, and he is in the same position as Dream Chaser Green. RC actually has a very clear idea in his mind.

The young scout immediately said:

"Height 2.03 meters, can play positions 4-5, 104kg the same as Draymond Green. He is also a senior at the University of Alabama. In the 2011-12 season, Jermichael Green averaged 14.0 points and 7.4 points per game. rebounds and was selected to the second team of the Southeastern Conference.”

"He has 3-point shooting ability, but he is not very good at defense and has no low-post skills. Compared with Chasing Dream, he has more shooting but less defense."

"It's just..." Paul Hank wanted to say something next to him, but he shut up when he thought that RC himself had mentioned it.

"Just what?" RC looked at Paul Hank and motioned for him to continue.

"It's just that he's predicted to be at the end of the second round of the draft, and it's unlikely that anyone will pick such a mediocre insider, so we can use the second round pick to select him."

"We will not select him in the second round. We can only select one power forward at most. It is impossible to train two power forwards together."

RC shook his head. If he takes a power forward in the first round, the power forwards taken in that round will overlap. There is no need at all:

"You can only choose one of the two. It doesn't matter what the outside world predicts. Just choose one of the two, or just choose one of the shooting guards just now."

What RC said is very consistent with the tradition of the Spurs. They often select players unexpectedly. Other teams only select the strongest players at the back. They only select what they need. For example, in the second round, Ginobili was selected. It was the same as choosing Parker. At that time, the decision was criticized miserably by the outside world.

It all smells really good now.

This is the Spurs!
