NBA: About Me Being Reincarnated As Yasuo, the Wind Walker

The Lakers were not invited to tonight's lottery draw, and general manager Jimmy Buss still chose to come just to determine the order of each team tonight so he could trade up.

But there may be something wrong with the original plan. Zhang Jun has become the most popular player in the United States, and now he can no longer win with the fifth pick.

Zhang Jun is at least the top three picks in the draft!

This also means that the Lakers may have to pay more chips to get him.

The top three picks are determined by drawing lots. After the teams that receive the top three picks are determined, the remaining first-round picks will be arranged in reverse order of the record of the remaining 11 teams.

"Hey Steve, are you here to attend the lottery ceremony in person?"

"Is this necessary? The Trail Blazers' record is ranked seventh from the bottom in the league. How do you still want to get the top three picks with such a small chance?"

Angie, who was born as a player, has the same mouth as his style on the trading floor, very vicious.

Steve Patterson responded: "Don't be too happy too early. The Celtics may not be able to get the top three picks."

Anji said with a proud smile: "The total probability of becoming the fourth and fifth picks is only 28%. Which pick do you think I will take?"

After finishing speaking, Ainge looked at Atlanta Hawks general manager Billy Knight next to him with a proud look on his face.

"Billy, why are you here like Steve? Don't get the No. 9 pick and cry on the spot."

Billie Knight snorted and turned his head away. He was upset when he saw Angie.

Although the Hawks' record ranks sixth in the league, there is theoretically a chance of winning the No. 9 pick, but the probability is so low that Ainge really can't spit out ivory.

The lottery ceremony begins!

"NBA executive vice president Adam Silver and Darlington Hobson of Ernst \u0026 Young took center stage and the envelope was placed on the podium."

"ESPN will broadcast the final order of this draft lottery throughout the entire process. I wish everyone a happy future."

ESPN host Nichols pointed to the stage behind her and said expectantly. Beside her were Barkley and Kenny Smith.

The general managers, executives or player representatives of each team in the league focused their attention on the center of the stage. Adam Silver methodically took out one of the envelopes and said.

"Thank you Nichols, the NBA 2007 lottery drawing ceremony has officially begun, and the No. 14 pick will belong to the Los Angeles Clippers!"

The management of the Los Angeles Clippers sent player representative Chris Kaman, and the white center was neither happy nor sad there.

The Clippers' record was the fourteenth from the bottom in the league. They originally wanted to make the playoffs, but they missed the mark by one move. In the end, they were only one game away from making the playoffs.

So it's not surprising to get this pick.

"The No. 13 pick belongs to the New Orleans Hornets."

"The No. 12 pick belongs to the Philadelphia 76ers."

"The No. 10 pick belongs to the Sacramento Kings."

"The No. 9 pick belongs to the Chicago Bulls."

"The No. 8 pick belongs to the Charlotte Bobcats."

"The No. 7 pick belongs to the Minnesota Timberwolves."

Hearing that his team was mentioned so early, Timberwolves general manager David Kahn looked melancholy and cursed.

The Timberwolves' record ranks fifth from the bottom in the league. With such a good record, it is reasonable to think that they can win the top four picks. But who would have thought that they only got the No. 7 pick.

Ainge gently patted David Kahn on the shoulder from behind and said: "Relax, man, the draft picks are like the lottery, you never know where you are."

"Think carefully about which player to select with the No. 7 pick. The Celtics have to move forward. We will get the top three picks."

Steve Patterson on the side looked around in confusion. The Trail Blazers, whose record is ranked seventh from the bottom in the league, have not been mentioned until now. This is really good luck.

Adam Silver continued to take out one of the envelopes and said, "The No. 6 pick belongs to the Milwaukee Bucks."

Hearing this, the general manager of the Bucks immediately became furious in his seat. The Bucks have the fourth-worst record in the league. Is there any mistake with the No. 6 pick? !

Off the court, the general managers of each team were happily cursing, and it had already turned into a mess. However, Adam Silver on the court still maintained a calm mood and continued to read.

"The No. 5 pick belongs to the Boston Celtics."

Angie: “……..”

"What is he saying???"

"Celtics pick No. 5?"

"Is this possible with an 8% probability?"

"Did you make a mistake!!!"

Anji stood up furiously, with anger written on his face.

Eagles general manager Billy Knight, whose name had not yet been read, patted Ainge on the shoulder with a calm expression and said in the same tone that the other party used to mock him just now.

"Man, why did you come to the lottery ceremony? Don't cry at the scene if you got the No. 5 lottery."

Ainge's face turned red, and he happened to see Steve Patterson, the general manager of the Trail Blazers next to him, whose regular season record had dropped to seventh in the league.

"Why haven't Trailblazers been remembered yet?"

Steve Patterson continued to look confused. He also wanted to ask what happened and why the Trail Blazers hadn't been read yet.

Did Ernst \u0026 Young's Darlington Hobson get the team's record wrong, mistaking the Celtics' record for the Trail Blazers?

The Trail Blazers were originally in a crazy state at the end of the season, but who would have thought that all the teams in the league would be so shameless and make the game almost unbearable, causing them to drop to the regular season record with only three wins. The seventh to last position.

Originally, Steve Patterson didn't even expect to get the top three draft picks, but now he was given a chance.

This kind of scene happens every year at the lottery ceremony. Adam Silver has long been used to it, but it is indeed a bit rare to see so many general managers from various teams here and they are so furious.

After all, this is a hot year for the draft.

The three talented players with the No. 1 pick are all freshmen. It has been 12 years since the league has had a freshman No. 1 pick.

Such a scene reminded Adam Silver of 1996.

I'm afraid the alliance will cause another bloody storm because of these three boys.

Adam Silver continued to open the remaining envelopes.

"The No. 4 pick belongs to the Memphis Grizzlies."

The general manager of the Grizzlies is Jerry West, the legendary NBA logo man. The old man is used to big scenes. At this moment, he did not get furious in the entire venue like Ainge, but his chest continued to rise and fall, and he was obviously slightly angry.

Even though it is a high pick with the No. 4 pick, if you don't get the first three picks, you won't be able to select one of the three picks. This is an extremely ordinary draft pick, just the first choice.

But even Jerry West, who is used to seeing big scenes, couldn't help but whisper at this moment, "The Grizzlies have the worst record in the league!"
