Vol 2 Chapter 698 2015 draft

Of course, this is defined by Wang Zelin’s vision as a latecomer. In the eyes of many media and fans, many talented sons have emerged in the past 15 years, which is undoubtedly a draft year.

That’s right, this is the mainstream speech in the media: 2015 is a big year for the draft!

But Wang Zelin is clear that the 2015 draft that was blown to the sky, and then even put it in some draft young years, is not considered an output, but it is quite mediocre.

But then again, no matter whether this year’s draft is a big year or a small year, this group of young people in the little green house all have one thing in common, that is, they have never appeared in the Blazers’ training camp…

In fact, since 12 years have passed, the rookie video pioneers in the following years have gradually lost the word “genius”, because the real talent has already been captured by them.

You can count on how high the draft picks the team with the best record in the league can have, not to mention that the real high-draft rookie is unlikely to come to a championship team like the Blazers.

After all, talent needs time and soil to grow. In the Blazers who are aiming to win the championship, they are destined to not get too much resources and effort from the management.

It is precisely because of this that when Wang Zelin followed Orsi into the draft hut, it only caused a brief sensation on the scene and then returned to dullness.

In the annual draft, the group of teenagers who are about to land in the NBA are the protagonists of today. Even the arrival of the first person on active duty cannot change the tone.

Because they represent the future of the entire league!

After finding a seat and sitting down, Wang Zelin saw the popular rookie sitting in Xiaoli’s house. In a flash, he had played in the league for three years, and his rookie contract was about to end. He also wanted to become a senior in the eyes of young people.

Sure enough, the years don’t pass, and the seasons flow!

While Wang Zelin was looking at the little green house, the young rookies in the little green house were watching Wang Zelin silently.

In fact, from the moment Wang Zelin entered the draft hut and caused a sensation, Towns, Okafor and others all turned their attention to Wang Zelin.

Is this the influence of the first person in the league?

After sighing with emotion, this group of young people also had great arrogance in their hearts, and even more directly exchanged glances with Wang Zelin, their faces were full of fighting spirit, and they burst out with a kind of high-spirited spirit of “he can be replaced.”

In this regard, Wang Zelin always had a light smile on his face, and he didn’t care too much. There are 14 people in the lottery this year, but there are 18 people in it, and 10 people are destined to be kicked out of the lottery.

Among these 18 people, only three or five people attracted his attention.

Towns, according to “NBA Bai Xiaosheng” Wo Shen, after the Timberwolves’ separate trial training, he has already squeezed out Okafor to become the No. 1 pick!

Russell, according to a slogan circulating in the NBA, “the champion and the second place must have water”, he is a typical parallel importer. In the original time and space, regardless of whether it was the Lakers era, the Warriors era or the Timberwolves era, he did not play his worth, Only a short trip to the Nets found his place, and also replaced the injured Oladipo into an All-Star.

However, as the second place in the year, compared with Towns in the same session, his performance undoubtedly failed to meet people’s expectations.

Muedi, because the league stipulates that players who graduate from high school must study the NBA for one year or play in overseas leagues before they can participate in the draft. Muedi, who did not play in the NBA, chose to join the CBA Guangdong Hongyuan team for a short time to start his professional basketball career, so he Also has a nickname of “Celestial Boy”.

In the end, the template is Okafor of Duncan and Porzingis of 2.21 meters of the European Great Pyrenees.

However, there is nothing to say about these two. One withered early, and the other had a brief highlight but quickly became a typical representative of the NBA’s high salary and low energy.

Olsi is still busy here, and the draft has already started over there.

Bald Touhua came out from the backstage, first made a familiar opening speech, and then announced the start of the draft.

At this time, the Timberwolves fans were undoubtedly the most excited. Even if influenced by a small butterfly, the Cavaliers’ big three had become Cousins ​​instead of Love, but this did not affect the Timberwolves’ bad record.

After all, Love’s ability to lead the team has always been very stable, and may be slightly better than Owen in the east, but it is not much higher.

What’s more, not long after the All-Star, Love was on and off due to injuries, and in the end, the Timberwolves handed over a record of 20 wins and 62 losses, stabilizing the bottom of the Western Conference, the second last in the league, and the Knicks, the rotten team in the east. , was selected as this year’s champion.

Like the news that broke before, Towns was successfully selected as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2015 NBA.

There are Towns + Love inside, Kevin Martin, a scorer with an average of 20+ per game, LaVine, a genius guard, and Rubio, the old golden boy in Europe…

Not to mention, the Timberwolves in the new season are quite exciting.

Towns was successfully elected as the No. 1 pick, and whoever can become the second place has become the focus of everyone’s attention.

It was Okafor, who had the same high call for the top pick, or Towns’ teammate Cauley Stein, or Russell, whose template was Brandon Roy.

Wang Zelin also raised his head, wanting to see who this year’s second place belongs.

By the way, it was the New York Knicks who won second place this year, not the rotten Lakers in memory.

Five minutes later, Silver appeared in the front desk again, and he announced the final selection of the Knicks.

“The No. 2 pick in the NBA in 2015, the New York Knicks selected … young center Jahlil Okafor from Duke University!”

After Baltouhua announced the result, there was a commotion at the scene, and then it quickly returned to calm.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, if you don’t open your eyes, Towns and Okafor are indeed the only two popular rookies in this draft. No matter who is the No. 1 pick, it makes sense.

“Okafor went to New York to partner with Melon?”

Witnessing with his own eyes that history has changed again because of himself, even though it has happened more than once, Wang Zelin still feels very novel in his heart.

Of course, human beings have always been afraid of the unknown, but why are they not curious?

He really wanted to see how Okafor, who was able to hand over 17+7 data in his rookie year, would develop after he arrived in New York?

Later, many fans once said that Okafor would definitely be an All-Star if not affected by injuries, not to mention that his 75ers already had a better choice in Embiid, which made Okafor gradually disappear. .

The longer Wang Zelin, the active top center, sat on the throne, the more emptiness and loneliness he felt in his heart. He really hoped that someone in the league would stand up to challenge him and make him feel the pressure again.

There are a lot of talented insiders in this year’s draft. Towns, Okafor, and Porzingis all have the potential to become an All-Star insider. I really hope they can grow up quickly!

After a while, the draft continued.

The Philadelphia 75ers, who held the third overall pick, did not choose Russell, the only popular perimeter player, but chose Porzingis, the big white bear from Europe.

Because of the 75-man management team, it seems that they already have a group of young outsiders such as McAway, Tony Roten, and Isaiah Kenan, and Russell is not so attractive.

In contrast, Porzingis, who is 2.21 meters tall and has abundant offensive methods, has become their best choice.

Embiid + Porzingis, in addition to both having glass attributes, it seems that they also have a head start!

In the Little Green Room, when he was selected by the 75ers, a visibly surprised look appeared on Porzingis’ face. He remembered that he went to the 75ers for a trial training before, and the 75ers management did not give him any promises.

However, after a brief period of doubt, a pleasant smile quickly filled his face.

Being able to be selected by a higher draft represents the recognition of him by others…and a rookie contract with a higher salary.

No matter how you think about it, this is something to be happy about.

Compared to Porzingis, who jumped all the way to the bald head, Russell’s face was visibly darker.

I remember that before the draft, he was hailed as a popular candidate for the No. 1 pick. As a result, the top three picks ended but he still stayed where he was.

For young people who are arrogant and want to conquer the NBA, this is undoubtedly a huge blow.

However… the Orlando Magic, with the fourth overall pick, still ignored Russell, who was staring at them, and chose Towns’ teammate, also a potential insider Cauley Stein from the University of Kentucky.

“Wow!!!”

There was another commotion at the scene.

They never imagined that the first four draft picks were all inside players and not a single outside player.

In NBA history, this is extremely rare. The last time a similar situation occurred was back in the 2001 draft.

The top four picks in that draft were all insiders without exception. They were Kwame Brown, Tyson Chandler, Pau Gasol and Eddie Curry, all of whom were more than 2.1 meters tall. big man.

But don’t forget, Shaquille O’Neal was at its peak at that time, and the league was still in the era of insiders being king. Therefore, the mainstream of the league was still to choose insiders as the cornerstone of team building.

Strictly speaking, however, after 2006, as the last super center O’Neal gradually slipped into his prime, the era of the inside line was gradually gone, and every year’s draft favorites gradually tilted toward outside players.

This point can be seen from the data alone. Before the 21st century, there were only a handful of defenders who were selected as the No. 1 pick, and there was often a gap of more than 10 years between them.

Even in the first ten years of the new century, from 2000 to 2009, except for James in 2003 and Rose in 2008, the rest of the 8 years were all insiders without exception.

But after entering the second decade, in the past five years, Wall and Irving became the No. 1 defender one after another, and after 12 years of Davis, there were two No. 1 outsiders, Bennett and Wiggins.

All of these are all proclaiming that the era when the insider is king is gone forever.

However, this is a trend under the normal development trajectory, and the current development situation is obviously abnormal.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for this year’s draft conference to have a rare insider event in a row in ten years. The teams with the top four picks all chose insiders.

The reason for all this…

The next moment, the director showed the camera to someone who was playing with his mobile phone, and the scene suddenly became quiet. The management members of the teams in charge of today’s draft looked at him with extremely complicated expressions.

Yes, if it weren’t for this guy’s birth, the era when the outside line was king would have been interrupted.

Overnight, the entire alliance seemed to have returned to the barbaric era of the last century, back to the era of endless **** by the supernatural beasts on the inside.

“Stop playing, everyone is watching you.”

Aware that the atmosphere at the scene was starting to go wrong, Orsi quickly reminded Wang Zelin next to him.

“Ah…Fuck! What happened, why are everyone looking at me? I don’t owe you money either!”

Wang Zelin looked up and saw that everyone was looking at him, he hurriedly put away his mobile phone, and he was completely at a loss.

“Ha ha ha ha!”

Everyone was amused by Wang Zelin’s actions, and they all laughed out loud.

After a brief interlude, the draft continued.

With the fifth pick, the Sacramento Kings chose Russell, who had been sitting on the bench for a long time. Not only was Russell himself relieved, but his relatives and friends also got up excitedly and hugged him.

With the sixth pick, the Nuggets chose Mudiay.

It is worth mentioning that this guy pulled off his suit when he stepped down, revealing a touch of oriental red, which is the flag of the Celestial Dynasty!

This scene made many fans watching the draft in China very excited. Those who didn’t know it thought that a domestic defender was selected.

With the seventh pick, the Detroit Pistons chose…

……

……

Soon, the first round of the draft was over, and the bald head Hua stepped down to rest. The person who turned to play was Stu Jackson, one of the league’s vice presidents.

He will be in charge of the next second-round draft.

“Ladies and gentlemen, with the 31st overall pick in the 2015 NBA, the Portland Trail Blazers selected…”

When Jackson opened the letter in his hand and read “Portland Trail Blazers”, everyone raised their heads and looked at the stage in unison.

Everyone wants to see who the Portland Trail Blazers, the two-time champion team that is the biggest boss in the NBA at this stage, will be their only draft pick this year!

Since 2012, the management of the Blazers has been open to the eyes of the team. They are familiar with the future. First, they selected Lillard and Wang Zelin in the first round of 2012. The former became an active first-line defender, and the latter even Became the first person on active duty.

Even Will Barton, who was selected in the second round, has become a high-quality rotation with an average of around 8+4+2 per game this year.

If you let them know that Will Barton in the original time and space will grow into a forward and guard swingman with an average of 15+5+4 per game in the Nuggets in the future, then they must not be sour!

Then Adams, who was selected in 2013, and Jokic, who was selected in 2014, became a starting center in the Mavericks.

Although Jokic’s data is not as good as Adams’s, his potential is far better than Adams’s. In the past season, there have been many high-profile performances, and the playoffs have also proved that he can fight tough battles, and now he has become the inside core of the Blazers second team.

Given that the Blazers have had a very high rate of success in selecting rookies in the past three years, in a sense, young players recognized by the Blazers management mean that they can successfully establish themselves in the NBA in the future!

You must know that even if dozens of young players join the NBA every year, it is impossible to save one out of ten who can really live a long-term and stable meal.

Jackson paused for a moment, feeling the eyes of the crowd on him, and then continued:

“Monterres Harrell from the University of Louisville, let’s congratulate this young man for being recognized by the defending champion!”

At this moment, when Harrell heard that he was selected by the Blazers~www.readmtl.com~ excitedly stood up and hugged his parents and friends around him one by one.

The Trail Blazers have just successfully defended their title, becoming one of the few teams in NBA history with two consecutive championships, and the establishment of a three-peat dynasty is imminent…

This is a potential dynasty team!

Considering that the Blazers have already been linked with the Timberwolves, Garnett’s return to the home team is almost a certainty. important rotation for the team.

To put it another way, if the rookie year can get a championship ring with the Blazers, that would be a great thing!

It should be noted that how many NBA legends have played for more than ten years, and finally ended up with a tragic ending without a championship for life.

And he, Montrezl Harrell, is very likely to see the supreme championship glory in his rookie season.

After seeing Harrell put on his team’s hat, there is nothing to do with the Blazers.

Orsi and Wang Zelin gradually lost their minds on the draft. The two played their own way and waited for the draft to end.

Once the draft is over, it also means that the free market is about to open, and that is the main battlefield of the Blazers this summer!
