Vol 2 Chapter 1337 grand prize unveiling

grand prize unveiling

Although Louis is a member of the Lakers’ selection team, he did not participate in the specific lottery ceremony.

Before the ceremony began, Louis sat directly on the lifetime VIP seat given to him by Madison Gardens.

Since the Grizzlies are not the bottom four team, if the league wants to operate secretly, then, the record is genuine, and it is hoped that it will be wonderful, and if it is a strong top four team, there must be a team that will be unlucky.

The specific response to this bad luck is that although they betrayed the sports gods and tortured the fans for an entire season-though the fans didn’t think they were tortured-but luck was not on their side.

Giving up a season for a lottery pick outside the top four is unacceptable.

But tonight, there must be a team that wants to be this unlucky guy.

Moreover, in order not to make this unlucky guy look so deliberate, there is a high probability that more than one unlucky guy will fall out of the top four.

Louie met an acquaintance in his seat — Minnesota Timberwolves general manager Kevin McHale.

After McHale retired four years ago, he has become acquainted with all walks of life in New York. Although he is not on the front line, the news has never been broken.

Last year, the Timberwolves finally had enough of Jerry Krause’s ineffective rebuilding, fired him, and wisely chose McHale to succeed him.

McHale had no experience in management work before, and he did not show talent in this area during his player days. Instead, he was repeatedly criticized for his unprofessional professional attitude.

Some critics analyzed that the Timberwolves did not really value McHale’s ability in this move, but wanted to use it to integrate into the Louis family.

As a low-level bad team that just joined the league not long ago, and failed in addition to failure, if they want to get ahead, they must have allies.

Looking at the league, the Celtics are all over the place, but the Louis family is the most powerful.

Whether it is the coaches under Louis who have gone out, or the management that he has become friends with, or the famous people who have played for him and now choose to go to the management direction after retiring, they have condensed together to form the largest faction in professional basketball.

Unless a guy like Klaus is really a genius and can complete the reconstruction without the help of others, in the cold Mingzhou, his reconstruction is destined to be far away.

The Timberwolves boss stopped the loss in time, introduced McHale, and hoped to become a member of the Louis family through him.

McHale knew very well why he was able to sit in a high position, so since he took office, he has been actively contacting Louis.

Today, he purposely sat next to Louis, as respectful as if he was still the opponent’s player.

“Coach Lu, do you think Tim Duncan is the cornerstone of this team?” McHale asked.

Louie smiled and asked, “What do your scouts say?”

“They made Tim a flower and said he couldn’t be missed,” McHale said with a wry smile. “It seems like every year there are rookies like this, but there are not many players who really live up to their reputation.”

Louie said directly: “I basically agree with the outside world’s perception of Tim.”

“basically?”

“Yes, but it’s a little bit different,” Louie said. “In my opinion, Tim Duncan is the most unmissable inside cornerstone since Bill Russell.”

Listen to how many people were skipped by this.

Chamberlain, Jabbar, Walton, Sampson, Olajuwon, Ewing…

McHale said incredulously, “Better than Patrick?”

Louie acted like he heard a joke.

“Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying he’s better than Patrick. In fact, I think it’s not easy for Tim to reach Patrick’s level. , Tim is really much better.”

It is said that McHale’s desire for Duncan is a bit more.

The Timberwolves now have a good team, but they just lack a cornerstone that the whole team can rely on.

If Duncan is really as good as Louie said, then

So as long as he can get him, the Timberwolves will immediately become a strong team in the West.

After a while, the drawing of lots officially began.

The first team to run out was the Seattle SuperSonics, who took the No. 12 pick.

This is also in line with their record.

Then complete the lottery is the Dallas Mavericks.

The Mavericks are a half-baked team. They had hopes of hitting the playoffs, but they were forced to switch legs due to injuries.

The No. 11 pick is not a happy compensation for them, because although there are big fish like Duncan this year, the overall quality of the candidates is not high.

Subsequently, the No. 10 pick was drawn by the Denver Nuggets.

The Nuggets are disintegrating internally. If they play normally, they should be able to make it to the playoffs, but because they didn’t deal with Kidd’s problem, the entire team collapsed directly.

Ernie Johnson, the soul of the future tnt group, said: “So far, there have been no surprises.”

The No. 9 pick was drawn by the Bucks.

Seeing this result, Louis felt that everything went too smoothly.

It’s as if a future NBA mock draft list divides lottery picks during the season based on team record.

As for tonight’s lottery meeting, the results of the lottery draw that have been announced are all in line with prior expectations.

Then, the eighth pick…

The shot shows the NBA representatives participating in the lottery.

Jim Bass, in particular, is literally the center of attention.

According to the record and probability of the Grizzlies, the No. 8 pick is the most likely position.

Little Buzz carefully took out a small ball from the crystal ball.

“Don’t…don’t…don’t…” Little Bass muttered, picked up the ball and looked at it carefully, and his face was filled with joy, “Ahahaha! ”

From his laughter, we can know that the Lakers “hidden” the No. 8 pick.

The scene shot was given to the Philadelphia 76ers’ lottery representative, Pat Williams (patillia), known as the master of the lottery.

Louie and Williams had a lot of dealings, the most famous one being the bidding war for the No. 2 pick in the hands of the 76ers on the eve of the 1986 draft.

In the end, the Knicks, who were more fully prepared in all aspects, got the second pick that year from Philadelphia.

The reason why Williams is known as the master of the lottery is because he represented the Milwaukee Bucks as early as 1969 and won the Coin War of the Century.

Then, the Bucks had a chance to select the guy named Alcindor.

In 1992 and 1993, Williams, as the lottery representative of the Magic, won consecutive No. 1 picks, bringing O’Neal and Webber to Orlando.

Unexpectedly, there were also times when the sages missed. The 76ers were the fourth runner-up, and the No. 8 lottery was the lowest lottery they could get.

This is the first unlucky egg tonight?.

Unexpectedly, this is just the beginning of various upsets and accidents.

For the final four that Duncan was determined to win, three teams were squeezed out of the top four.

Jr. touched the ball again and again in a suffocating atmosphere. As a result, there were fewer and fewer people around him, but the Lakers were still “alive”

When it was finally determined that the Lakers’ Grizzlies had entered the top three, the media in Los Angeles had begun to cheer.

McHale jokingly said: “Coach Lu, will Danny’s management career end here?”

Indeed, if the Lakers use the Grizzlies’ pick to win the No. 1 pick, the criticism Ainge will suffer in Vancouver will be unimaginable. At the same time, this will also be a rich black material in his management career.

The reason why McHale is still so distracted is that the Timberwolves, like the Lakers, still haven’t drawn their pick.

At the same time, the Timberwolves are also the only survivors in the top four.

Another small draw, and this time, the team with the shattered dreams was the Houston Rockets.

With their record, it is already possible to win the third lottery

It was extremely lucky, but the lottery representative was as depressed as if his soul had been drawn.

This also means that the Lakers and Timberwolves have entered the final battle.

The team that draws the second overall pick will be the biggest loser of the draw.

At this moment, McHale was too nervous to breathe, and Louis, who had foreseen all this, just watched calmly.

When the final result was announced, Juwan Howard, who represented the Timberwolves in the lottery, soared a national curse for his mouth definition, and the annual top prize of professional basketball fell on the Los Angeles people.

“I got…?”

Little Buss, who won the grand prize, felt like being in a dream~www.readmtl.com~ felt unreal.

Bird beside him laughed and said, “I got it! You brought Tim Duncan to Los Angeles!”

(Louis: Cough cough cough…)

Bass, who was so excited that he couldn’t feel happy, accepted the live interview deliriously, and said something that made Louie’s face turn black: “I’m so lucky, if you want to be as lucky as me, please come back in June On the 20th, I visited ‘Niuzi Xuanxuan’ on 23rd Street in Greenwood, Los Angeles, (1)!”

(1)? Thanks to book friends 41/14 for their ideas.
