Super Small Forward

On June 28, 2014, the NBA Draft was in progress at Madison Square Garden in New York.

As another draft year after 2012, this year's draft is highly regarded. From the first to the fourteenth overall, the lottery area is full of talented rookies.

The luck of the Cavaliers really goes without saying. They won the No. 1 pick for the second year in a row, and they won the No. 1 pick three times in the past four years, although the record is still not very good.

This year's No. 1 pick has three candidates. The first is Wiggins from Canada, the second is Parker from the United States, and the third is Embiid from Africa.

The three of them are the top three in this year's draft rankings, and there is no surprise. It happens that the top three in the draft are the three of them, and the ranking is also the same as the ranking.

Liu Ren also watched TV at home and followed the draft. From the first to fifth pick, there is no difference in his memory. Wiggins has gone to the Cavaliers and may soon be traded away. Parker is known as a minor. Anthony went to the Bucks, and Embiid, the old wounded name, went to the 76ers. I don't know if it can be played. In Liu Ren's memory, Embiid has been injured for the next two years.

After that, changes began to occur. Since the Lakers were no longer in the lottery zone, the draft picks of the teams starting with the seventh overall increased by one. Randall, who should have been drafted by the Lakers, was exposed to a knee injury. The market has been declining. When the Lakers selected him, they were questioned. Now the Lakers do not choose him, the lottery team dare not consider him until the twelfth overall pick is traded by the Warriors with two future picks. The draft picks him away!

Seeing that Randall was selected by the Warriors, Liu Ren wondered if it was a "big and small Green" swap?

Finally arrived at the thirteenth overall pick that Liu Ren was concerned about. The Timberwolves originally had the fourteenth overall pick. Because the Lakers were out of the lottery, they moved up one place.

Judging from the fact that the Timberwolves management loves to collect talented men, they will definitely choose LaVine, which Liu Ren is very certain.

But precisely because the Timberwolves love to collect talented men, in fact their backcourt talent is about to explode, and there is also Rubio who has already played a quasi-first-class point guard level, so if they are given some benefits, they will simply put this Trade the picks! Both Liu Ren and Kupchak’s team are quite certain about this.

There are three minutes for the team to consider before each pick, because their target candidates are likely to have been selected by other teams before.

Before the Timberwolves was about to submit the draft envelope, the official announced a three-way deal.

The Lakers handed out the 29th overall pick in the first round of this year and the second round draft pick from the Bucks in 2015. The signing rights of the European player Faried Gines with the 49th overall pick in the second round in 2007 and 3 million cash For compensation, Jeremy Lin from the Rockets, the 13th overall pick of the Timberwolves in the first round of this year!

The Rockets sent Jeremy Lin and the 20th overall pick in the first round of this year, and got the right to sign the Lakers' second-round rookie in 2007.

The Timberwolves gave out the 13th overall pick in the first round of this year, and the Rockets won the 20th overall pick in the first round this year, the Bucks' 2015 second-round pick and 3 million cash!

The owner of the 13th overall pick became the Lakers!

The Lakers used this pick to select Zach LaVine from UCLA!

Not one of the top ten picks in Lavin’s draft, he already wants to scold him. His initial draft ranking can be ranked in the top eight, but other teams have always been skeptical of a perimeter player with only physical talent and relatively average skills. , He already thought he was going to fall out of the lottery zone, and he might even fall into the second round like the Clippers' little Jordan!

Jordan was also a member of the Little Green House when he was drafted. He did not expect that the first round was finished and no team selected him. He was picked up by the Clippers.

Just when LaVine felt that the world was in darkness, a super big pie smashed on his head and he was selected by the Lakers!

The draft year is very eye-catching, but the same suspense is not big. Almost all teams will choose talents. For example, Wiggins will choose Parker, Parker will choose Embiid, every team Will pick the best of the rest.

Therefore, what fans pay most attention to is not which team selects who, the previous draft rankings are basically predicted, they are more concerned about whether there is a deal!

The Lakers raised the 29th overall pick to the 13th overall without paying anything, which caused a sensation.

No one talks about the Timberwolves, because the Timberwolves got more draft picks they wanted, and also got a cash. This 3 million cash is enough to pay for the first year of the Timberwolves' two draft picks this year!

It’s not surprising that the Lakers drafted LaVine. When LaVine was running, he said he wanted to go to the Lakers ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and went to the Lakers draft training camp many times for trial training. The Lakers also lacked point guards. McCollum has always been a shooting guard. It is relatively wasteful to play a point guard. Nash is old. Farmar and Marshall are actually useless. In this era when all team point guards are blowout, the Lakers' point guards have always been Very big loophole.

Jeremy Lin was traded, LaVine was selected, and Nash, who had more than ten minutes of combat effectiveness, was used by fans to describe Kupchak’s trade as a magical operation!

The only thing that makes people complain is the Rockets. Everyone can tell that the Rockets are trying to save money.

The Rockets now have Beverly, the defensive champion, and Harden and Howard. Jeremy Lin and Asik, who signed the big contract that year, have become tasteless, and even tasteless for the Rockets, leaving them useless. They also need to pay 30 million in salary each season. Although their three-year contract occupies a salary of 8.33 million each year, they will actually earn 15 million in the third year.

But overall, this is just a painless deal for the entire draft. Jeremy Lin is no longer the same Lin crazy back then. LaVine is just a rookie with excellent physical talents but mediocre skills. It is not certain whether he can play or not. , This year, like LaVine, the talents are much better, and people just complain about the Rockets' utmost in order to save money.

People’s opinion this time is not wrong. Whether it is Liu Ren or the Lakers management, they all know that LaVine cannot be referred to in a short period of time. It took Kobe, who was more talented that year, to become the main player. LaVine No matter how talented you are, you have to exercise for two or three years. When the two veterans of Kobe and Nash retire, it will be when LaVine and McCollum are on top.

So after choosing LaVine, the first thing the Lakers management should do is ideological work...
