Injuries in basketball only make me stronger

"You can't put your eggs in one basket."

Old Curry repeated it again: "You can't put your eggs in the same basket."

"I know...but New York..."

"Listen, if the Hornets don't draft you with the 6th pick, then the New York Knicks with the 8th pick is your best destination."

Curry thought for a while. Although his father was right, there was still a Warrior holding the No. 7 pick. And... the Warriors seemed to have wanted to sign him for a long time.

In order not to be selected by the Warriors, Curry's team even rejected the Warriors' tryout request. Currently, Curry has only tried out with the Hornets and the New York Knicks.

As a new rookie, Curry came into contact with the NBA earlier than many players, but in terms of social experience, he still chose to accept his father's advice.

"But I still have a question."

"Um."

"Will the Hornets give up on me at the last moment? But... didn't we already agree before the trial training, and... Lian Feng likes me very much..."

Old Curry sighed: "Maybe Lian Feng really likes you, and the Hornets' tactical system is also very suitable for you. Even before this trial training, I thought you would definitely be able to join the Hornets. But...

Because of that guy, your position is less stable."

"Uh...you mean James Harden?"

"Yeah. Look, here's how I think about it, if James Harden is drafted earlier, then there's no question that the Hornets are going to take you and George Sheehan is going to do that. But what?

...If there is something wrong with the heads of those guys ahead of the pick and they let James Harden go, then...it's hard to say whether the Hornets will choose you or Harden."

Curry said helplessly: "This feeling of fate being in the hands of others is really bad."

Old Curry patted his son on the shoulder: "Don't think so, listen, even in the New York Knicks, it may not be worse than the Hornets. Maybe... it is not easy to win the championship there, but there is a good chance to win a bigger one."

contract."

"But..." Curry's eyes were blazing: "I want a championship!"

…

Don Nelson doesn't care what other people think.

He has invented many epoch-making things so far, such as "ball-controlling small forward", "shark-cutting tactics", "pulling big men to the outside to shoot three-pointers"... and so on. Whenever he invents a new tactic, the outside world will laugh at it.

He was deviant, but the final facts proved that they were classics.

And this time, he set his sights on the kid from Davidson College. He knew that guy would definitely become a superstar in the future! He wanted to select that kid, even though many people on the team were against it, and the old Curry even publicly stated

, tell them not to choose Curry.

Ha, but how is this possible?

He really liked that boy so much.

But now, it seems that they are not the only team interested in Curry.

The New York Knicks, well, big market.

There is also the Hornets. However, because people who know about Curry and Harden’s training with the Hornets have signed confidentiality agreements, Nelson feels that the Hornets may take action, but if James Harden is not eliminated in the first few rounds,

If selected, then the Hornets are likely to choose James Harden instead of Curry.

And will Harden be selected in the top five?

hehe……

In fact, it can probably be analyzed.

First of all, Griffin is definitely the No. 1 pick. There is no doubt about this.

Then the Los Angeles Clippers, who hold the No. 1 pick, will definitely take Griffin. If they don't do that, they must be crazy.

Next, the Memphis Grizzlies, who hold the second pick, should choose Hasheem Thabeet because the team lacks an inside player.

Then there is the Kings, who have the No. 3 pick. It is said that they have been flirting with Tyreke Evans for a long time... Compared to Harden, Evans was once the No. 1 high school student in the United States, with excellent wingspan and horizontal direction.

With his quickness, he is a talented player that is rare to see in the NBA in ten years. Given his preconceptions, the Kings should choose Evans.

So, before the Hornets, the only players who are likely to sign Harden are the Timberwolves, who have two good picks, 4 and 5.

Nelson has always scorned the vision of the Timberwolves head coach and team management. Except for Garnett many years ago, they basically have not selected better players.

Moreover, James Harden did not go to the Timberwolves for a tryout, so with the blind eyes of the Timberwolves' management, they may not be able to select James Harden.

Of course, it's not absolute.

But no matter what, as long as James Harden falls to the 6th pick, the Hornets will definitely pick James Harden, and then Curry will be theirs.

As for the New York Knicks, haha, just eat it if you want.

…

Time flies and the day of the draft arrives.

Curry sat a little closer to the front. Basically, his draft pick could already be judged, so this position was convenient for him to stand up and shake hands with David Stern for a photo.

"In the first round, with the first pick, the Los Angeles Clippers selected Blake Griffin from the University of Oklahoma!"

White Monster stood up, put on a baseball cap symbolizing the Clippers, looked calm, stood on the stage calmly, and shook hands with David Stern.

Curry looked at Griffin in silence. That position is what many rookies dream of. However, there is no doubt that it will only be given to the most talented guy in this class.

Subsequently, in a tense atmosphere, just as Nelson predicted, the Grizzlies selected Hasheem Thabeet, and the Kings used the third overall pick to take Evans.

Um……

Those players whose names were called naturally could not hide their excitement, but there were more players who did not have their names called and waited silently.

His eyes are full of longing.

Then, the time came that made Nelson nervous.

"Don't pick Harden!"

"Don't pick Harden!"

Old Nelson thought silently in his heart.

As for Curry, he is not too worried.

After all, there are only a few people who can discern gold.

Stern continued: "The Minnesota Timberwolves, who have the first round and fourth pick, selected with the No. 4 pick...Ricky Rubio from Barcelona, ​​Spain!"

Old Nelson breathed a sigh of relief. However, there was still one more sign.

"Don't pick Harden, don't pick Harden!"

Old Nelson began to pray again.

"Next, it's still the Timberwolves. They selected Jonny Flynn from New York with the fifth pick in the first round!"

Old Nelson jumped up excitedly.

Then...the Hornets will definitely choose James Harden, there is no doubt about it.

Then, it was finally the Hornets' turn.

Curry took a deep breath, and what he was most worried about happened. Players like James Harden were not interested in the first three rounds! It is incredible... Although, James Harden's data was not available during the joint trial.

The performance was very shocking, but he felt that it was too outrageous that Harden's name did not appear in the top five.

Then, next, I will have to compete with Harden for the No. 6 pick.

Later, David Stern began to think about the Hornets' selection.

"The New Orleans Hornets, who have the sixth overall pick in the first round, select... Stephen Curry from Davidson College!"
