Chapter five hundred and sixty-eight [rich second generation, losers]

The Clippers' manager "Belle" chose a striker named Yaloslav Korolev with his godlike eyes. Guo Xu didn't know how this man entered the lottery.

The 76ers actually selected forward Danny Granger with the No. 12 draw, which was also a huge change.

Granger was selected by the Pacers in his previous life, and there was no Auburn Mountain Palace battle. The Pacers' draft pick was very low, and Granger's fate changed. He was a star small forward with excellent offense and defense, but unfortunately his injury ruined him. He won the Fastest Progressive Player Award and was selected as an All-Star. In 2010, he followed the United States to compete in the World Championships in Turkey and won the championship.

However, joining the 76ers may not be a good thing for Granger. Iguodala already has on the team, and the two overlap the positions. How much playing time can he get and whether he can have the ball rights is a question.

What is certain is that the 76ers' wings have become super strong, and with Korver and John Salmons, they are enough to compare with the Suns in terms of their potential in swinging positions.

The Nuggets traded two first-round picks and chose forward Hakeem Varick, who can play 3 and 4 positions, and heavy point guard Jared Jack, who is 191cm tall.

The Grizzlies also changed, choosing small point guard Nate Robinson.

The Grizzlies were miserable by Guo Xu in the playoffs. They wanted to choose a small defender to try to train them. When they face the Suns in the future, Nate should be able to keep up with Guo Xu's speed.

However, Nate's weakness is very obvious. He is much shorter than Guo Xu. 175cm is falsely reported, but in fact it is at most 170cm. When he participated in the dunk contest in his previous life, he stood with Weber, 169cm "Potato" and the two were almost the same tall.

Otherwise, Nate's superhuman physical fitness would not fall to the last few places in the first round. His speed, bounce, strength, and flexibility are top-notch in all aspects. Another embarrassment is that his style of play is like a shooting guard and his organizational ability is average.

The Rockets' choice has also changed because they have fired Jeff Van Gundy and invited Old Nelson to join.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Old Nelson commented on the "Yao and Mai combination" like this.

"He is the best player in China. He is praised on the court and off the court. Everyone is eager to get a dominant center like him, so I really want to coach him." However, Old Nelson then said helplessly: "Well, but there is no chance to coach Yao Ming."

In addition, Old Nelson believes that McGrady is underestimated. Although McGrady has never led the team to the first round of the playoffs, his ability has always been recognized by people in the league circle, which is unquestionable.

He said: "McDy is an underrated star in the league. I know he can change the end of the game on the court. He has the ability. When I lead the team to meet him, he always brings a lot of trouble in the game."

Now that Old Nelson has the opportunity to coach the Rockets, he is ecstatic. Yao Ming definitely doesn't need to gain weight anymore. Old Nelson attaches great importance to the mobility of inside players. Bradley's nickname "Big Bamboo Pole" is so thin that he can't stand people, and he never gains weight in the Mavericks.

Old Nelson looked down on Luther Hyde, who had no organizational ability. It was a tragedy to play the shooting guard at 191cm tall. He suggested that the Rockets choose Lithuanian forward Linas Kreza.

Creza may not be left behind. Old Nelson chose him for trade. The forward has average physical fitness and comprehensive skills but no tricks. Old Nelson is also preparing to trade Zhu Wan Howard. Old Horse has played in the Mavericks. His defense is very bad, and his only advantage is central shots. Old Nelson looked down on him when he was in the Mavericks.

What the Rockets need is a good point guard, but it is not easy to trade Howard. His middle-class contract is obviously too big, with high salary and low ability. In addition, there is also a lack of good point guards in the free market.

It was the Suns' turn, and Brian chose David Lee in the 30th place, a handsome white guy, 206cm tall and 111kg power forward.

David Lisong, who was staying in a luxurious villa to watch the live broadcast, breathed a sigh of relief. If he couldn't play NBA, he could only follow the arrangements to work in a family business and manage dozens of fast food restaurants and dozens of chain supermarkets. What a boring life?

This is not an exaggeration. David Lee is an absolute rich second generation. His grandfather always donates millions of dollars to charity. His family owns a huge industry and even invests in the construction of forest parks and zoos for the city where he lives. David Lee is purely interested in playing basketball, and even the amount of money that is maximum salary is nothing to his family.

David Lee was a recognized winner in his previous life. He proved himself in the NBA. He was selected as an All-Star twice and won the championship in the Warriors in 2015.

As long as David Li Guoxu is selected, it is enough. There is no need to poach rookies. He will become an excellent fighter.

David Lee was a famous double-double machine in his previous life. His offensive skills were very gorgeous, his movement speed was fast, and he was suitable for running and bombing, and his attack was strong and his defense was weak. In the current situation of the Suns, it almost didn't matter if he defended at one position, but he would kill his opponent by attacking.

The second round draft is a group of people who are not favored, and there are still some changes.

The Lakers 31st selected Turiav, a short and strong inside player. They also selected double-season defender Monta Ellis with the 36th pick from the trade.

This change surprised Guo Xu. The Lakers should have chosen Vaughan Weiffer, who has strong physical fitness.

After Guo Xu succeeded, the speed guard became more and more popular. All teams wanted to choose a fast defender to deal with Guo Xu, just like each team would find a meat shield center to fight O'Neal.

Judging from the potential, Ellis is definitely better than Weiffer, but it is hard to say what he can play in the Lakers. If he can successfully transform into a point guard and have a physical advantage, it would be a tragedy to play No. 2 like his previous life. Kobe averaged about 40 minutes per game, how many opportunities can he give him to perform?

Ellis' transformation into a point guard is only theoretically feasible. He is good at fighting in chaos, not controlling the rhythm.

The biggest change in the second round was that the "Polish Hammer" Massin Gotat was directly defeated.

The Suns in the previous life only chose Gotat in the 57th place, but have not signed a contract yet. Now Guo Xu has not proposed to choose him in the second round, and no team has paid attention to him. The Magic chose Bynum and will no longer stare at Gotat.

If Gottard does not play in the summer league in the future, people may not know that Europe has this excellent center who can play in the NBA well. Guo Xu is preparing to save him in the future, and he is worth saving.

It is normal for Gott to lose the election now, because this person's resume makes people feel unreliable. The Suns would choose him in the second round that year because no one was available at the center position, and only Steven Hunter. Later, in order to strengthen the inside, the Suns were forced to trade with the Knicks and exchange Quentin Richardson for veteran Cott Thomas.

Gotat's athletic career started in football and used to train in the youth team of the Polish lks Lodz. Later, because he grew too tall, Gotat turned to practice basketball and was exposed to basketball very late.

He didn't go to high school, but went to a technical school. In addition to playing basketball, he spent four years studying car repair at school, and after graduation he worked as an apprentice in a repair shop.

Who would have thought that such a person would become an excellent center? Gottate, the last rookie counterattack.

He is very fast, good at pick-and-roll, has a mid-range shooting range, and can hook on both sides of the low singles. He is good at pick-and-roll defense, but his disadvantage is that his body is not strong enough and his confrontation is worse.

In the peak season of Gotat, he averaged 15.4 points, 10 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 0.7 steals and 1.5 blocks per game.
