“%…%?”

Chen Xiao is really confused by Boss Qiao now.

By the way, Boss Qiao, have we become friends long ago?

So, what do you mean?

Is this tempting me?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao smiled, and everything was silent.

With the help of Boss Qiao, the biggest problem of the Cavaliers has been solved now.

A 11 million garbage contract!

He was picked up by the bobcat in this way.

This news is like a pie falling from the sky. Let's just say that, if Jordan doesn't take action, the Cavaliers' general manager is really going to let the Bulls brothers take over for him.

Anyway, the bulls still have to be bad now. Instead of doing this, it is better to let the bulls continue to be bad, the blood transfusion knight, and the tiger-killing brothers.

Now, before my brother has taken action, Jordan helped the Cavaliers solve the biggest problem of the "poor" team. Paxson doesn't know whether to thank Jordan or Jordan is a fool.

In fact, at this time, Jordan gained nothing but Chen Xiao's thanks.

The doubts of the assistants, the confusion of other management teams in the league, and the ridicule of all the fans.

Originally, before this military expansion draft, Boss Qiao was a legend in the NBA, and he could see Chen Xiao’s potential at a glance.

However, after this military expansion draft, Boss Qiao fell from the clouds and died in the light.

Boss Qiao really doesn't care about such controversies around the world.

He is Jordan, and even if he plays casually with Bobcats, no one dares to care about him.

Therefore, after completing the expansion draft for the Bobcats, Boss Qiao plunged into the 2004 NBA draft.

Two days after the military expansion draft ended, on June 24, 2004, on the morning of the draft, Boss Qiao was still discussing with his assistant who to choose.

The No. 1 pick in the NBA draft this year is the Spurs, the No. 1 pick is the Supersonics, the Tanhua is the Chicago Bulls, and the Bobcats are the fourth.

As for the Cavaliers, this year's draft picks are 18 picks in the first round and 48 picks in the second round.

The Bobcats' draft picks this year are actually very good, and the 2004 NBA Draft was also a small draft pick.

There are many young players in this year's draft that are considered very high-quality by the American media.

For example, Okafor and Howard, who are competing for the No. 1 pick this year.

At present, Okafor is more optimistic in the United States.

I heard that the Spurs and Popovich already have answers, but according to the analysis of the US media, it seems that this year's NCAA champion UConn center O'Carver has more hope to become the third No. 1 pick in the Spurs history.

The reason why Okafor is more supported in the competition with Howard is mainly because Okafor has strong strength at the basket, and his rebounds and blocks are excellent.

In addition, Okaver's mid-range shooting is also good.

The only thing that worried the Spurs was that Ocarver was suffering from back injuries, which could be an "unsettled" factor.

And what are the advantages of Howard over Okafor?

Well, maybe the only advantage is that Dwight Howard is a younger player and believes he will be the hope for the future of the NBA center position.

The US media predicted that Dwight Howard could become second in his idol Garnett, well, that's what he said himself.

Although this high school player has not had much experience in playing games, he is indeed very capable.

Howard and Okafor are the two best rookies this year. It is basically impossible for these two rookies to fall out of the top two, because both the Spurs and the Supersonics lack a potential center.

Therefore, Jordan did not pay much attention to these two people, but instead looked at the American media to predict the lottery rookie.

The third most popular among the American media is Andre Iguodala, 6 feet 7 inches, 217 pounds, and the small forward of the scoring guard of the University of Arizona in Oregon. The upper limit of the template is Chen Xiao and the lower limit is Richard Jefferson. He is a versatile player, able to play multiple positions, has strong athletic ability, and has a bit rough shooting.

The fourth place is Devin Harris. Yes, it is the one who abused Chen Xiao in college for the University of Wisconsin. Since Chen Xiao rose in the NBA, Devin Harris has begun to attract much attention in the NCAA. Although he led the team in average, he is definitely one of the most popular players in the NCAA. The more Chen Xiao became popular in the NBA, the more he was paid attention to.

It is precisely because of the special bond between Devin Harris and Chen Xiao that Jordan also put a certain eye on him.

The fifth most popular player in this year's draft was Livingston, and the template was a magician. Everyone is familiar with this. He has become a well-known genius in the United States very early on.

The sixth most favored is Pavel Bodekozini, 7 feet 5 inches, 300 pounds, Russia, center, Pavel Bodekozini is very strong, and tall and strong.

Let's just say that, as long as O'Neal can still play and has dominance, players like him will not lack markets. The lower limit of the draft template is Bugo and the upper limit is Sabonis.

Good guy, Bug has become a template in the NBA.

The seventh most optimistic player in this year's draft, Ben Gordon, 6-foot-2 inches, 192 pounds, University of Connecticut, guard, is also Chen Xiao's old friend.

The eighth-proud rookie, Luke Jackson, 6-foot-7 inches, 212 pounds, University of Oregon, shooting guard, tall and large shooting guard, the template is also Chen Xiao.

Because of Chen Xiao's rise, such a high-large shooting guard is now very popular among the NBA general managers.

The ninth player favored is Andris Biderlins, 7 feet, 240 pounds, Latvia, power forward, a young potential power forward.

Josh Childries, the tenth rookie who is favored by the American media, is a small forward at Stanford University.

The 11th most favored player, Al Jefferson, 6-foot-10, 263 pounds, Mississippi High School, power forward.

The 12th most favored player, Kirk Schneider, 6-foot-7 inches, 228 pounds, University of Nevada, shooting guard, template Chen Xiao.

The thirteenth player is favored, Chris Paul, 1.83 meters, Wake Forest University, organizational guard, template Isaiah Thomas, close friend, Chen Xiao.

Looking at the thirteenth pick in the list compiled by the Bobcat management this year, Boss Qiao stopped again.

There was no way to stop because this 1.83-meter-old man was carrying two names that he cared very much.

The first one is assassin, Isaiah Thomas, and the second one is Chen Xiao.

"Chen Xiao's best friend..."

Especially the second one, this made Jordan very excited.

Although his ultimate goal of being the president of operations of Bobcat is to get Chen Xiao over, he definitely cannot say this.

If you tell me about this, even if he is Jordan, others will think he is a lunatic.

However, he is a stubborn person. Since he set his goal at Chen Xiao, the goal will not change.

He needs to collect all the elements in the Bobcat that can allow Chen Xiao to join.

And it is obvious that Chen Xiao’s close friend is one of the elements.

So seeing Jordan staring at Chris Paul desperately, the other management teams of Bobcats were really scared.

This great master won't want to use the team's No. 4 pick to choose Chris Paul, right?

Never not!

Who is not good for the No. 4 draft pick? Choose a 1.83-meter-long point guard?

As long as it is 1.83 meters, their height is definitely not 1.83 meters. Those defenders who are less than 1.8 meters tall like to make their height the same as Iverson.

"Michael, Chris Paul has excellent athleticism and excellent skills. He is a very outstanding young point guard. However, he is not the best choice for the Bobcats to choose with the No. 4 pick. In this year's NCAA Championship, he was abused by the backcourt composed of Deronti West and Jamil Nelson, which put a huge question mark on whether his ability and potential can gain a foothold in the NBA."

"Yeah, Michael, we have the No. 4 show, not the No. 14 show."

"Even if we have the No. 14 show, we should choose Josh Smith, JR Smith and Jamil Nelson, and even Deronti West."

Good guy, Boss Qiao just showed a very interested look at Chris Paul, and was persuaded by his assistants next to him.

Obviously, the other management of Bobcats are now confused about Boss Qiao's vision.

On the other side, not far from New York, Celtics general manager Danny Angie was also watching the draft report prepared by Celtics assistants for him after mocking Jordan for a while.

And he and Jordan are staring at almost the same person now.

This year the Celtics have the 10th pick, and it is very stable to choose Chris Paul for this pick.

He has been watching the player Chris Paul for a long time.

As a player who plays as a defender in his career, as a player who likes traditional defenders very much, let's put it that way, in his eyes, Chris Paul is simply the most fragrant defender.

A perfect point guard in his eyes.

Such a point guard has not improved due to the poor NCAA play.

All I can say is, thanks to his height, thanks to Jamil Niels and Delonti West.

A point guard like this can solve the Celtic problem was sent to the Celtics.

According to the predictions of Chris Paul by major media across the United States, the No. 10 pick is very stable.

Now, he is waiting for the draft tonight, and Chris Paul has chosen the Boston Celtics.

On the evening of June 24, 2004, Chen Xiao, James and Anthony accompanied Chris Paul to the draft at Madison Square Garden.

Chris Paul is one of the Green House players invited by the NBA.

Paul's draft pick this year has always been lukewarm, with around 14 places hovering, just enough to reach the edge of the Green House.

However, compared with Chen Xiao, who could sit in the center, James and Anthony, Chris Paul's small round table is a bit off.

But, the position is not relevant.

As long as Chen Xiao, James and Anthony are assisted, that's it.
