NBA: Evil Striker, Hold the Shark!

Chapter 68 Crazy Draft War! Li Ba, champion!!

With the Atlanta Hawks winning the top pick, a question followed.

So who exactly will the Hawks pick in the draft?

This question became the hottest topic after the NBA Finals this year.

Is it Li Ba, who cut 550+16+5 in the NCAA Finals and MO~P in the Final Four?

Or led the University of Illinois to the end, DeLong Williams?

Or Li Ba’s personal comrade-in-arms, Chris Paul?

There is almost no answer other than these three people.

The Hawks obviously don’t have a qualified All-Star, and the core of their offense last season turned out to be Antoine Walker, who is the height of a power forward but has a shooter’s heart.

This guy started to go crazy, that is, he shot a wave outside the three-point line, and the more he shot, the more addictive he became.

The key is that the hit rate is still low, and the lower it is, the more you want to vote!

Obviously Antoine Walker is not the right fit for the boss of the team.

They need a leader who can really lead the team.

Who is this person?

……

Meanwhile.

Fields Firm, the general manager of Atlanta’s old manager, has already smoked victory cigars

Not only did they win the top pick with the second highest probability, but they also received trade requests from various teams in a very short period of time.

“In this year’s draft, we must make the most of the value of the top pick!”

Above the Eagles meeting, general manager Fields spoke.

Like the Milwaukee Bucks, the Hawks didn’t set all their sights on the youngsters in the draft, and if they had good trade chips, they wouldn’t recommend sending the pick to another team.

This is an opportunity for the Atlanta Hawks to fight back.

The champion signature is not easy to come by, and all the use value must be squeezed dry!

Fans all over the world didn’t wait long.

Two weeks after the draft draw, the 2005 NBA Draft finally arrived as scheduled.

Madison Square Garden, United States.

This arena is full of talent!

Li Ba, Chris Paul, and including O’Neal appeared on draft night.

The difference is that Li Ba and Paul sat in the small green room.

To be honest, Li Ba was also surprised by the draft draw, because according to the normal historical trajectory, it should be the Bucks before winning the 2005 draft.

Now that the butterfly effect has appeared, the Eagles, who should have been the top pick, have successfully counterattacked!

Since a traverser has intervened, history will naturally not develop exactly according to the trajectory.

On the night of the draft, Li Ba also met many comforting faces.

DeLong Williams cast a look full of hatred at Li Ba and Paul.

Andrew Bodog also had a vicious look in his eyes, as if he was staring at the enemy, and of course, the three high school spirit guys.

Obviously, before entering the NBAL, Li Ba has already formed a bond with many players! These people, it can be said that they are all members of the Avengers!

“Bully, which of us do you think will become champions?”

Before the draft began, Chris Paul asked Li Ba with some expectation.

“If Atlanta isn’t ready to trade, obviously you and DeLong are their answer.”

What the Hawks are missing is a leader who can attack from the outside.

If they left the champion for the team to use for themselves, Li Ba felt that they would not choose their own.

Of course, these are all speculations, and the devil knows if the Hawks will trade in the first place after winning themselves.

“There are still a few minutes to reveal the answer, and I also think Atlanta will choose me.”

Paul said confidently.

“This is CTV5! Hello everyone! I am host yoga! ”

“I’m the host Zhang Reasonable!”

It is worth mentioning that the Celestial Empire actually broadcast the whole draft live on the whole process.

The broadcast of the NCAA Finals received huge ratings, and CTV simply broadcast it to the end, and also broadcast the draft live broadcast.

This is the first time in the history of the Celestial Empire that the NBA draft has been livestreamed, and there is no doubt that the focus is on Li Ba!

In the CTV5 live broadcast room, the number of real-time online users is close to 50 million.

“We have the opportunity to witness a great moment tonight!”

“Li Ba from the Celestial Empire, he will be selected by the NBA and is likely to become the next Celestial Empire champion!”

The commentators of the Celestial Empire did not hesitate to praise Li Ba.

Soon, in the broadcast footage.

A little old man with white hair and eyes appeared on the announcement stage.

That person was none other than the NBA’s then-commissioner: David Stern.

As soon as David Stern appeared, the discussion on the scene stopped abruptly.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Madison Square Garden!”

“I’m coming up with you for the 2005 NBA Draft!”

“I announce! The 2005 NBA Draft has officially begun! ”

It’s still the same skillful opening statement every year, and then comes a tense time.

“The first to make the selection was the Atlanta Hawks, who had five minutes to think about it!”

David Stern’s words fell, and the newcomers in the little green room who had the opportunity to become champions were nervous.

There’s no one who doesn’t want to be a champion!

Even Li Ba was the same, he was waiting for Stern’s answer with great anticipation.

……

0000 at the same time.

In the Eagles’ office, the uniformed crew was already busy.

“Joe Johnson, averaging 17 points per game, still wants me to send Li Ba to them, dream? Don’t waste my time! ”

General manager Fields looked at the Suns’ trade application and threw it directly into the trash: “Those players who average less than 18 points per game, don’t report to me!” ”

“Don’t they want Li Ba? Yes! Write Amare Stoudemire’s name on the transaction application report for me! ”

Meanwhile, in the Suns office.

“What！ Fu＃k！ ”

The general manager of the Suns directly cursed after seeing Fields’ words.

I had a good chat before, but I didn’t expect that in the draft, the general manager of the dog thief in Atlanta actually sat on the ground and started the price!

You think Joe Johnson is a bit cheap, it’s understandable, I’m adding some other chips to you, but you open your mouth to Stoudemire!

Really take our Suns as an injustice?

This season, the Suns routinely take first place in the middle of the competition, but in the playoffs, they didn’t even make it to the Western Conference Finals.

The reason for the failure is that they are not strong enough inside, although they mainly play a fast-paced small-ball style, but there must also be an inside lineman in the team

So no matter what, they are determined to bring in a quality insider this summer!

“Reply to them, Amare Stoudemire can’t move!”

“If we could, we’d put Joe Johnson and Quentin Richardson on the shelf!”

After thinking for a moment, the general manager of the Suns made up his mind directly.

This time, he really got the blood.

Quentin Richardson averaged 14+6 per game last season!

14+6 Joe Johnson averaged 17 points per game last season!

Joe Johnson is full of talent and has a very high probability of the future.

Quentin Richardson is also a very good player.

These two players join the Eagles.

The future can cultivate Joe Johnson! It can also improve the combat effectiveness of the moment!

“Head! The Lakers have a strong desire to get Li Ba, but they really can’t get any good chips, and all they send is money! ”

“The Lakers are in the same situation as in New York, they are willing to trade anyone except Stephen Marbury, but those people are not good leaders!”

In the Eagles office.

The uniformed team members of the Eagles are still busy.

“We don’t want money!!”

Fields said categorically: “What is the use of money? We want stars! ”

“Atlanta, a city that gives money, can’t hire any good stars!”

This is a common problem for many small city teams.

No matter how much money the team gives, superstars are reluctant to join teams in smaller cities.

So the Eagles’ idea is straightforward! No money!

It is to have both combat power! It’s about the future of the team!

“Head! Phoenix sent another trade application! ”

Just then, the assistant shouted.

“Are they willing to send Amare over?”

Eagles general manager Fields looked pleasantly surprised.

“No, Head! They say both Amares Tadmeier and Steve Nash are non-tradable players! ”

“Then talk about a fart, let them get out!”

“But they sent Joe Johnson and Quentin Richardson!”

4＋6！

“These two, one averages 17+6 per game! A 14+6 average Joe Johnson and Quentin Richardson! ”

This made the general manager of the eagles hesitate a little.

“Head! Philadelphia has added chips! ”

Before Fields could come to his senses.

The Philadelphia 76ers trade report is back here.

“Who did they add?”

“They are willing to send Chris Webb + Aaron McGee!”

As soon as these words came out, Fieldsz’s eyes lit up!

Chris Webb!

That’s the all-star power forward of yesteryear, averaging more than 20 points per game last season!

Although Aaron McGee is no longer at his peak, he is also a player who has won the best sixth man, and his single-hand ability is still there.

According to the general manager of the Hawks, they want a player who averages more than 20 points per game.

But!

What the Eagles really need is not an inside player, but an outside!

Joe Johnson sent by the Phoenix Suns has a strong ability to single out from the outside, and it is not impossible to develop into an All-Star in the future, and even a team leader

Plus a Quentin Richardson, both combat power and very good, Quentin Richardson’s practicality does not have to be Aaron McKey!

That left the Eagles’ general manager tangled.

Seeing that there are only 2 minutes left in the draft thinking time.

The general manager of the Hawks said: “Go and forward the 76ers’ trade application report to Phoenix and let them give higher chips!” Otherwise we’ll make a deal with the 76ers! ”

However.

In another office.

The Philadelphia 76ers management is also anxious.

Because they just sent the Hawks a trade application for Chris Webb plus Aaron McGee, just to be able to get Li Ba…

This trade application for the 76ers can be said to be full of sincerity!

“Those greedy guys in Atlanta shouldn’t have refused, right?”

Delayed in receiving a return, 76ers general manager Billy King became uneasy.

Aaron Iverson next to him also had sharp eyes: “This is already the biggest bargaining chip we can give!” ”

There are still two minutes left in the time.

Whether you can join forces with Li Ba depends on the answer in two minutes.

The Suns side.

After seeing the trade chips sent by the 76ers to the Hawks, he was directly shocked.

It actually put Chris Webb and Aaron McKee on the shelf.

Just to get Li Ba!

“That’s Chris Webb! Philadelphia’s desire to get Li Ba is very strong! ”

To be honest, when Suns management saw the names Chris Webb and Aaron McGee, even they were dumbfounded.

Because these two are so suitable for their Suns!

Webb came to the Suns and could pestle a big man on the inside in the small-ball offensive system.

It plays a crucial role when necessary!

As for Aaron McGee, the reason why he didn’t play well last season was because he didn’t have a playmaker beside him, and Steve Nash could have given Aaron McGee more opportunities to perform!

Even creating a best sixth man is not impossible!

“The most we can give is Steven Hunt! The general manager of the Suns team said after thinking for a long time. ”

“Head, I have a better idea.”

The person who spoke was Nash, the child of the wind.

“Instead of us trading Quentin Richardson + Joe Johnson + Steven Hunt for Li Ba.”

“It’s better to… Trade these chips for Chris Webb and Aaron McGee! ”

Is Li Ba important? Or is Chris Webb + Aaron McGee important?

The Suns’ general manager took only ten seconds to think, so he called the Philadelphia 76ers.

There are only 20 seconds left!

Meanwhile.

At the draft!

The rookies who enthusiastically await answers are already impatient.

The audience friends in front of the TV watched the rookies’ game highlights three times back and forth.

Finally in the last 10 seconds.

An envelope was delivered to David Stern.

The eyes of fans all over the world lit up.

Is it coming?!

Is it going to be revealed?! Who the hell will it be?! After tearing open the envelope.

David Stern showed a satisfied smile: “In 2005, the Atlanta Hawks were drafted as a top pick…”

“Li Ba!”

“Height 2.06m! Devil Deacons from Wake Forest University! ”
