The old man was very happy.
When Han Yi walked off the stage, Allen Iverson took the lead and jumped directly on Han Yi:
"Brother, you will hang out with me from now on, let's turn the NBA upside down together!"
Han Yi drove around, but did not see Auerbach in the Celtics camp. Although Han Yi was quite excited to team up with Iverson, with Han Yi in this life, Iverson would no longer be the tragic god of war without help in the previous life.
But seeing the Celtics patting their chests and making tough remarks before the draft, and finally giving up on themselves, it was inevitable that they were a little lonely!
"It seems that I am still not strong enough. Not only can I not compete with the complete Duncan, but I will not even let the Celtics spend a lot of money on me."
At this time, the answer to the third pick is about to be revealed!
In the original history, in the 1997 NBA draft, the San Antonio Spurs selected Tim Duncan with the first pick, the Philadelphia 76ers selected Keith Van Horn with the second pick, and the Boston Celtics selected Chauncey Billups with the third pick!
But since the 76ers selected Han Yi with the second pick, the past history has no reference significance. Han Yi is also a little curious about who the Celtics will select!
David Stern opened the envelope of the Boston Celtics at this time and read:
"The Boston Celtics selected Keith Van Horn from the University of Utah with the third pick!"
"YES! YES!"
Keith Van Horn, holding his daughter in his arms, proudly lifted his one-year-old girl over his head, and then hugged and kissed his wife.
If it weren't for taking care of his wife who had just given birth, Van Horn should have participated in the NBA draft in 1996.
If you want to draw a list of good family men among NBA players, Van Horn can easily be in the top three.
But the Celtics' selection of Van Horn with the third pick made Han Yi feel a little unhappy.
He knew that Keith Van Horn in the future was indeed a qualified NBA-level starting power forward with good rebounding ability. At the same time, he had a long-range shooting ability that was absolutely rare among big players from the 1990s to the early 21st century. In such a small year for the draft, whether he was selected as the second or third pick, it would be a good choice!
However, Han Yi recalled the scene where Auerbach swore to him:
"Why, even Auerbach thinks he can replace me?"
"Van Horn's nickname is the next Larry Bird. Others can be fooled by such a title, but Larry Bird, whom you personally discovered and coached, would also believe this nonsense?"
But just as Han Yi was thinking about it, a 76ers staff member suddenly said to Han Yi:
"Han, you have been traded to the Boston Celtics!"
Han Yi: ??????????????????????????????
Iverson: ????????????????????????????????????
Iverson grabbed the staff member by the collar:
"What the hell are you talking about? This is not something you can joke about!"
The staff member said calmly: "Allen, this is the decision of our 76ers general manager, and the boss also agreed to it."
"I'll call Billy King now!" Allen Iverson cursed: "Trade Han? Then trade me too!"
"Hello, hello?"
Iverson desperately dialed the phone, but no one answered the phone of the general manager or the boss at this moment...
"Fuck! Shit, it's all shit!!!"
"I'll go find them now!"
Iverson rushed out of the venue in anger!
When Iverson went crazy, David Stern, who was hosting this year's draft on the stage, was also numb!
What's going on? How could the seed of my opening up the Chinese market be dug up by the old monster Auerbach?
The script I originally planned was to have Han Yi and Iverson team up to become a new generation in the East to snipe Jordan, and to have a super beautiful change of dynasty.
Of course, it is impossible with their current strength, but with my help, they may not be powerless!
But what should I do now?
Han Yi actually went to the Celtics, whom I hate the most!
And this Celtics is still a poor mess!
Is Auerbach going against me and deliberately destroying this kid? ?
…
At this time, the Celtics staff had come over and stretched out their hands to Han Yi and said:
"Han, congratulations
Join our Boston Celtics. We paid for you with this year's No. 3 and No. 6 picks, and next year's first-round picks, plus two absolute main players!"
At the same time, the TV broadcast signal revealed the details of this transaction: the Boston Celtics exchanged Antoine Walker, Eric Williams, Rick Fox, this year's No. 3 and No. 6 picks, and the 1998 first-round picks for Han Yi and Derrick Coleman of the Philadelphia 76ers!
The Celtics staff solemnly handed the Celtics' cap to Han Yi and said in a deep voice:
"Mr. Auerbach said that you will be the cornerstone of our team building in the next ten years. The future of our Celtics is in your hands, young man!"
Han Yi scratched his head uncomfortably: "Why do you Celtics talk so vaguely, not at all real!"
"How could it be? "Before Auerbach arrived, his voice came first:
"I know Ben Wallace, I have called him, come to our Celtics for a tryout tomorrow, I will give him a fully guaranteed two-year salary!"
"And now you need to use the power as the cornerstone of the future team building. This is our No. 11 pick and No. 35 pick. It's up to you to decide who to choose in the end! ”
This is the power that the old fox Auerbach promised to Han Yi as the cornerstone. This time it is finally no longer an empty promise!
But this power cannot be thought about carefully. As long as you think about it carefully, it seems to be useless!
After all, this year is a famous year for the draft. The top ten picks are all a bunch of duds. Outside the top ten, it can be said that there is no one who can play. Even if Han Yi opened his eyes and knew the careers of these players in his previous life, he couldn't choose any tricks!
What's more, Han Yi has no impression of these old players who are not All-Stars.
The 97 draft picks that Han Yi knew in his previous life were Tim Duncan, Keith Van Horn, and Chang Billups, Tracy McGrady, and then there are no more...
This is very embarrassing, I am the 11th pick, and these guys are all in the top ten!
Ah, no, when Han Yi saw the second round prediction, he found that he knew a genius: Stephen Jackson!
In his prime, he was definitely an All-Star forward-guard swingman. Except for his bad temper and love of making trouble, his offense and defense were very good.
But the problem is that he is only a second-round pick in the top ten, so wouldn’t it be a big loss to choose him with the 11th pick?
"Haha, Auerbach, this old fox, you really can't choose a decent guy, but you give this thing to me as a favor, right?"
"And, can this really be considered a favor?"
Han Yi looked at the old fox Auerbach's eyes looking at him up and down, and felt his hair stand on end.
"Why does it feel more like a test? ”
At this time, the draft was still going on. After the Celtics selected Keith Van Horn with the third pick, the person selected with the fourth pick was also announced!
Just like the original timeline, the Vancouver Grizzlies selected Antonio Daniels with the fourth pick, thus leaving out Chauncey Billups, who was supposed to be selected third in the original timeline!
Then, the fifth pick did not change, and the Denver Nuggets chose Tony Battie as in the previous life!
This gave Han Yi, who had already given up hope, suddenly new hope!
"Oh my god, it can't be Chauncey Billups who was left behind!"
