The Rest, Only Noise
Chapter 657: Relics fall from various bags
"We selected the best player in this draft class with the 14th pick in the first round!"
In Zhao Yuanzheng's eyes, Sean Camp is a definite choice.
Because he believes that under Louie, Camp's future is limitless.
Louie wasn't so excited, but now the Knicks' core talent has really spilled over.
For him, there are only two things left in the draft.
One is using late draft picks to build as much depth as possible, and the other is disgusting Jerry Krause.
The Bulls' top pick this year was the 17th pick in the first round.
Louie found one of Krause's main targets in the draft, Edward's B.J. Armstrong PG.
Louie knew that Armstrong was one of the legacy of this draft class.
In the main timeline more familiar to fans, he was an All-Star alongside Horace Grant when Jordan went to play baseball.
In some people's eyes, this even became another black spot for Jordan, because they were not All-Stars when they were with Jordan.
Now that Louie doesn't care what his future is, the Knicks don't need Armstrong, and he won't destroy the team's roster just to disgust Krause.
When it comes to the draft, if he wants to disgust Krause, there is a way.
Louie picked up the phone and started calling the teams with the three picks ahead of the 17th overall pick.
The Nuggets, Bucks, and 76ers.
Louie, ostensibly interested in their draft pick, was actually trying to imply that Armstrong was a good choice.
Moreover, in addition to these three, Louis also put the wind on other teams.
Just a few minutes after the Nuggets, who had the 15th overall pick in the first round, were thinking about it, the calls of each team rang frequently.
The Nuggets don't believe in Louie's evil, but there are a few teams that are willing to believe in Louie's vision and are ready to make an interception.
Just when Lou thought Armstrong would be taken by the 76ers or the Bucks in nine out of ten situations, Lewis Shafir stepped in.
Shafir sent Grant Long + this year's second-round pick to Denver in exchange for the 15th pick in the first round and used that pick to select B.J. Armstrong.
The moment his favorite candidate was intercepted, Jerry Krause stared at the phone, wanting to smash it.
His assistant hurried over to protect the phone: "Jerry, don't smash it! The draft isn't over yet, we don't have a backup phone!"
"LittleLu is so deceiving!" Klaus growled.
What makes Klaus even more angry is that Louie knows his plans well. If it wasn't for a mole, how could the Knicks even know who they want to choose?
Thinking of this, Klaus can be sure that there is a spy inside them.
"Check it! Check it hard for me! I want to know who has contacts with them in the scouting department, don't let one go!"
Louie was very content to screw up the Bulls' draft plan.
As for the rest of Krause's plan, Louie doesn't plan to obstruct it, because it looks like Armstrong is the only thing the Bulls will get in this draft. As long as he doesn't get drafted by the Bulls, his plan will be completed.
Louis made a phone call to Shafir by the way.
"Lewis, what happened to that deal?"
It's not that he didn't want to recommend Armstrong to the Heat.
After all, his plan now is to turn the Heat into a strong team that can occupy a place in the East, so the rationality of their lineup must be considered.
Although Armstrong is good, his combat power is definitely not as good as Brian Shaw, not to mention that they still have a Cheeks who is at the peak. If Armstrong has no resources to train, it is better not to choose.
"Coach Lu, if you want B.J so much, I think he must be a talent." Shafir asked nervously, "You won't be unhappy if I do this?"
Louis smiled helplessly.
This deal really has an air of unwise follow-through everywhere.
"I don't blame you, but why did you hand over Grant Long?"
"Denver named it."
"You can bargain with them!"
"The situation is urgent. If I don't make a decision, they will choose someone."
Louie was sure that Denver had exerted extreme pressure on Shafir, but Shafir was so full of damage that they got their way, really...not surprising at all.
"Although you have Hank Gaithers, he has a heart problem. He must strictly control his playing time. If there is no strong 4-position substitute, there will be a big problem in the rotation."
"I really couldn't care less at the time..."
Louis was speechless to him. Since the transaction has already happened, it is meaningless to care about this.
After that, the Knicks selected Doug WestSG with the 26th pick in the first round, and used the 1st pick in the second round from the Heat to win both small forwards and power forwards. The Brutalist flank of Chucky Brown.
At this point, the operations on the Knicks draft are all complete.
Louis originally wanted to suggest that Shaffield take Clifford Robinson (PF/C/SF), who fell to the second round, but he did not expect the Blazers to have a keen sense of smell. In addition, one of the biggest relics of this draft conference is in the bag.
If Louie knew Robinson, he might have given up on Kemp.
The only thing he knew about Robinson was Jordan in that famous shrug fight in 1992.
When Jordan set the finals halftime three-point shooting record with a hot touch, he made a shrug of "I can't control myself". At that moment, Robinson appeared in the camera.
That's why Louie remembers Robinson.
He only knew that Robinson was an important role player at the finals level, but he didn't know that he was a decathlon wing Spider-Man.
Style-wise, he's like Rasheed Wallace before Rasheed Wallace.
When the Blazers got this man, it was an even stronger feat, making them even stronger with the talent, depth, and strength of the league's first flank.
Just under Rick Pitino's "culling" system concept, can this team play to its full potential?
Louie is not optimistic at all. You must know that at the beginning of next season, the Lakers will usher in a center in team history, that is, David Robinson, who officially debuted after finishing his service.
The Blazers managed to get rid of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and now the Lakers directly added a young Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Just thinking about Louie makes Jordan worried, won't he be blocked by the Lakers in the West again?
And, in addition to Robinson, the Lakers also picked up Vlade Divac in the draft, which was an oversight by Louie.
He forgot there was Divac in this draft.
In addition to him, Zhao Yuanzheng and R.C. Buford's scouting department will not pay attention to overseas players.
Robinson + Divac's twin towers, just thinking about it makes the Blazers suffocate.
After that, the Knicks sold their 27th overall pick to the Heat for $200,000.
Since this was the last draw, Louie didn't have much to choose from, so he let Shafir play freely.
The result... Shafir was sold to the Orlando Magic for $210,000.
This gave Louis another call in anger: "What do you mean, Lewis?"
"Coach Lu, to be honest with you, I don't want to buy it. If it wasn't for your sake, I wouldn't do this kind of business..."
"So you sold it to Orlando?"
"What do they want...and, Minnesota outbid Orlando, I didn't sell them the pick for your sake..."
He really couldn't fix it for Louis.
"You don't think I'll thank you, do you?"
"Coach Lu, the weather is really nice today."
"goodbye."
Louie hung up, and Baylor looked amused.
"Why do you think this person is the general manager? The more I think about it, the more angry I get!" Louie suddenly felt that this year's draft was extremely aggrieved. Except for the disgusting Klaus, nothing good happened.
Baylor reassured: "Indeed, you really shouldn't interfere in Miami's affairs, and now this person is relying on you."
"In the long run, it's a good thing, at least we can keep track of what's going on in Miami, the guy is like you, the general manager is not doing well..."
"WTF!" Baylor yelled, "leave me alone!"
Louie didn't expect Baylor to be allergic to this joke~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but the more anxious Baylor is, the more he likes to joke about it, what can this old guy do.
"Elgin, you can understand what I mean. Armstrong's trade, I just let out some wind, and didn't inform him, but he moved quickly and got Denver in front of the other teams, although it was a bit clumsy, but in that case , if you want to get Denver quickly, you can only do that.”
Louis smiled lightly: "This guy, the news is very well-informed."
Baylor said unhappily: "I don't care what he does. If you compare me with him, I'm really anxious for you!"
"What are you in a hurry? Do you think you are much better than him? I haven't settled with you on the expansion of the draft!"
Baylor would never have imagined that Louis would be so unprofessional. It's been a few days, and he's still going through the old accounts?
"I...I didn't expect this to happen?"
"I'll go to you, when you think about it, Lao Tzu's **** has turned into the shape of that **** Klaus!"
