The Pope of Basketball Community - Chapter 875
The 2016 NBA draft had a little tidbit.
The 76ers were lucky to have won the penultimate record in the league. The last time they won the top pick was in 1996. Allen Iverson was selected. The top pick this time is the Louisiana State University striker Ben Simmons, known as Little James.
Embarrassingly, Ben Simmons’ agent has clearly informed the 76ers that either Simmons will be selected by the Lakers or he will become a popular champion. The psychological shadow area of the 76ers coach Brett Brown is quite Big.
Fans on the Internet immediately expressed their dissatisfaction: “You are all called “little James”, destined to be a deceased boy who has not won a championship for more than ten years, why are you so dragging?” (James: what?!)
In fact, it is not Simmons. Many drafts are reluctant to go to the 76ers. The 76ers have problems with their own team building ideas. It is no wonder that others can’t refuse so bluntly.
The 76ers’ management simply didn’t want to keep the star, nor did they give the star a chance to be loyal. As long as the player’s status fell and the playing was not good, they would be sent away immediately.
In contrast, the Lakers, although at the bottom of the years, at least Kobe in the Lakers, the boss position is still vacant.
Unfortunately, the threat of Simmons didn’t work. The 76ers still chose him, not a fool.
The Lakers once again made the list and chose Brandon Ingram, the template is Durant.
The Timberwolves selected forward Jaylen Brown in the third place. The template was Josh Smith.
The penultimate Bucks in the Eastern Conference only won the fourth overall pick, selected the inside Dragan Bender, and a seven-footer with a three-pointer. Now such players are particularly popular.
The Raptors picked Marquez Chris as the fifth pick, the power forward, and the template was Stoudemire. This draft pick originally belonged to the Knicks and they were exchanged when they traded the soft guy Bagnani.
Don’t look at the rookies’ templates are very fierce, in fact, the credibility is not high, at that time Sun Yue’s draft template was still Boris Dior.
This year is a well-recognized draft year. Not many rookies have been followed. Yang Rui didn’t even watch TV, waiting for a phone call at home.
The Clippers selected the combo guard Malcolm Brogdon, with a height of 196CM, a weight of 98 kg, and a wingspan of 210CM. Looking at the body side data, he knows that he will be a tough role on the defensive end, only 77CM bounces slightly Show mediocrity, the template is Aron-Afflalo.
In the 2015-16 season, Brog played an average of 34.1 minutes per game, scoring 18.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.1 assists. His shooting percentage was 45.7%. He led the University of Virginia to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament, was elected the defensive player of the year by the National Association of Coaches, and was voted the best team in the United States, becoming the first player in the history of the Atlantic Coast League to win both the player of the year and the best of the year. Defensive player player.
In Yang Rui’s previous life, in the 2017 NBA Rookie Selection, the Bucks’ second-round rookie Brogdon defeated the 76ers’ “Emperor” Embiid, which is a good inspirational story.
Although multiple statistics indicate that Brogdon is the best rookie winner in NBA history, averaging only 10.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 4.2 assists, shooting 45.7% from the field and 40.4% from the field. But the reason why Yang Rui chose him is very simple. No matter how good he is, he is the best rookie. Why not choose him if there is no better choice for the 30th round?
Veteran Miller retired, there is no individual in the point guard position, Brogdon is an excellent instant combat strength, running tactical catching jumpers is his strength, passing consciousness is also good, just suitable for the Clippers system.
As long as Brogdon plays well, Yang Rui will send away Zac LaVine in the summer of 2017. This is an enduring love. A talented player like LaVine will definitely give him a premium once the rookie contract expires. The contract, the Clippers are too many people, can not renew the contract.
In the 35th place, the Clippers selected Zhou Qi with the Timberwolves draft pick. Yang Rui was about to sign a four-year long contract with him directly. He would not let him practice for another year at the CBA like the Rockets. Pull a Chinese basketball.
Wang Zhelin was selected by the Grizzlies in the 57th place, and Chinese fans were delighted. However, it is very difficult for Wang Zhelin to land in the NBA. In the second round of the show, which is particularly late, few can get a contract.
On July 1, the NBA free market officially opened, and many players signed on the first day.
In the NBA, the annual salary of 6 million was regarded as a high salary, but now it has become a situation where 20 million people walk around, more than 10 million are like dogs. People like Barkley, Pippen, etc. must be very depressed.
Pistons outside star DeRozan jumped the salary for the Raptors, he did not want to stay in Detroit, is completely free.
After 2013, Detroit filed for bankruptcy and became a sinister city, with garbage everywhere and items burning, and many streets where only the most terrible black poor lived. GPS has failed in some places in Detroit because many street houses no longer exist.
It is said that the dangerous East Detroit has the risk of being shot during the day. This kind of local civilians are reluctant to wait, not to mention the stars?
The only good news for the Pistons is to leave the rebounding king Drummond. The two sides signed a five-year 130 million contract. If this rough brother won a super fat contract, he would definitely not want to stay.
Al Horford joined the Celtics for 114 million in 4 years. The Hawks failed to rush to the crown and began to rebuild.
The Lakers dug up the Pelicans’ three-point forward Ryan Anderson in 4 years, and the contract is fully guaranteed. Because of the signing of Bosh, the Rockets are no longer able to chase the star, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Anderson has a single role, general defense, and enough pits.
The Hornets and last season’s starting small forward Batum signed a five-year contract of 120 million US dollars, of which the fifth year is a player option. Now the second-rate stars with senior qualifications can sign the contract of the top superstar of the year.
Batum can at least help the team, and some signings are pure throwing money.
The Pacers gave Solomon Hill 4 52 million in four years. This averaged 29 minutes per game last season, scoring 8.9 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists. He shot 39.6% from the field and 32.7% from three. The reason for the high salary is The defense is not bad.
Wounded ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Center Qiaojin Noah, who has been in a state of decline for two consecutive seasons, joined the Knicks for 72 years.
Last year’s playoff defensive Wizards power forward Bi Yongbo joined the Magic in 4 years. Both of them are blue-collar workers, and the signing of the team’s high salary is a mental illness.
Even Jeremy Lin, a role player who played on the Hornets’ bench last season, joined the Trail Blazers for a three-year, $36 million contract. He deserves this annual salary, and now the middle-class contract is ten million.
There are many premium contracts this year, and of course there are teams with high salary to dig the Clippers.
The Blazers had the most adequate salary, and gave Middleton a four-year premium contract of 75 million. Middleton decided to leave the Clippers without much consideration. The contract is too large. He also wanted to see if he could do more if he had the ball, and the Blazers now lacked the core.
The Trailblazers left Aldridge without Lillard and McCrum. They had to sign high salaries in the free market and meet the minimum salary standard. Middleton benefited from this.
The Blazers also signed a four-year $64 million contract with Cavaliers center Mozgov. The team needs a meat shield center.
Originally Mozgov would go to the Lakers, because Embiid will pay next season, so the Lakers did not want a high center.
Yang Rui called and blessed Middleton, so he could get together and get away. Next year, Brother Alphabet can get more playing time, and Covington will also have more performance opportunities. Although it is a bit regretful, there are players in the Clippers who can replace Mi. Delton.
Then, the Clippers renewed Draymond Green for 5 years at 85 million. This is a conscience price reduction of 10 million. There are weak teams that give Draymond a top salary, but he wants to stay with the Clippers. You can win here.
On July 5, the league’s most shocking big news appeared…
