Chapter 281: Stone Buddha heading east

May 26
The Eastern Conference and Western Conference finals have been played for two games. On the Western Conference side, the Jazz lost in the second game and lost their home advantage. The big score was 1-1 and the Supersonics were equal.
In the east, the Bulls struggled to defend their home court, leading the Heat 2-0.
On this day, there is one more thing that affects everyone's heart.
Lotto lottery.
The twelve teams participated in the lottery. In fact, they all have only one goal, but unfortunately, this time the rookie contest is combined. The 76ers, Celtics and Magic have occupied the top three seats in the pendulum contest extremely stably.
Among them, the Celtics have double insurance.
Compared with the 1996 champion battle, the birth of the champion in 1997 seems so logical, but perhaps the 1997 champion battle is more worthy of our aftertaste. Boston had a tremendous 15-67 season.
If you think about how difficult it is to win 67 and 15 in reverse, you will know that 15 wins and 67 losses is not that easy.
In this way, they have a 37% chance of winning the top two picks!
Few players care like Mo Mengchen who symbolizes the future of draft picks.
Tonight, Mo Mengchen specially invited Dumas and Hill to dinner at his house.
He cooks himself, and then watch the live broadcast of the lottery.
Green pepper chicken wings, spicy dry pot potatoes, fried rice noodles with shrimp...
It's the same again. For professional players, these are contraband, and the trainer requires everyone to quit these things like abstinence.
It's a pity that Mo Mengchen relied on his youth and didn't take these warnings seriously. His thoughts are also very simple. His life has been troubled by all kinds of worries. If he can't make himself eat better, then What are you doing here?
He will not suffer.
Therefore, he is basically abstaining from the vegetarian diet, at least not now. When he gets older, the recovery system becomes degraded, and he wonders whether he will follow the healthy diet plan seriously.
"Mo, can we really eat these things?"
Hill is a good boy, a kind of good boy that the teacher will not let him do.
"Grant, don't be so disciplined, you will miss a lot of good things like this."
Dumas tilted his big fat legs, which used to be full of muscles, but now they have disappeared, leaving only regrettable fat and fat, which also made his master lose vitality.
"But the trainer doesn't lie to us?" Hill looked at the delicious food and still couldn't help.
Dumas said: "Excuse me, who is the doctor?"
"Who knows our body structure better?"
"Who cuts our body every day?"
"Not bad!" Mo Mengchen turned around and brought out a plate of egg roulades. "It's right down!"
"Haha, right? Mo, you tell him, is it harmful to eat these?"
Dumas saw that an expert supported him, and he became very stubborn.
"These foods will really slow down our body's recovery speed, but we are still young, and all functions are in the best condition. Don't worry about it, you should enjoy it while you are young." Mo Mengchen smiled.
Dumas clapped the table loudly and praised, "I'll say it!"
Hill interrupted him awkwardly: "Joe, my dad is talking about young people, you shouldn't be here."
Dumas pretended not to hear it.
"Joe, you can't eat, you are old."
Repeated this many times, the veteran of merit of the Pistons finally could not bear the nerd Hill.
Joe Dumas declared angrily: "Although I am older, my heart will always stay at 18!"
Finally, Mo Mengchen waited for the soup to come out.
This dish is called white radish and mutton soup, because Europeans and Americans generally don't have the habit of drinking soup, so he basically wraps himself.
Mo Mengchen waited for the soup to come out, while Hill and Dumas had already given up treatment, and their mouths were full of oil.
At this time, the first result of the draw conference appeared.
The 13th overall pick was the Cavaliers.
After the short glory of the 1980s, the Cavaliers gradually entered an underestimation. Before the son of the natural selection became an adult, they failed to find another strong man who could help them climb out of the abyss.
This team has had a glorious past, but only won the championship, just like this cursed city.
So far, the Cavaliers' most classic scene in the history of the NBA is for Jordan's "The Shot" as the background.
"Mo, if you are given the thirteenth pick, who would you choose?" Dumas asked.
"Bobby Jackson." Mo Mengchen turned his back to them and said the name.
This makes them wonder, who is Bobby Jackson? They have never heard of it.
Hill asked, "Who is that?"
"A defender is very talented. Fortunately, he is not in the lottery, which means that we have the opportunity to get him." Mo Mengchen pointed at the stunned and gentle duo with a spoon lamely-sorry, they What he looks like now is really not a good manner.
Dumas asked: "Is it so powerful?"
"Sufficient to suppress you so that you can only play at garbage time, aren't you serious?" Mo Mengchen pricked Dumas' heart a little.
It was not two days or two since Dumas was struck by Mo Mengchen, and there was no other indication.
The 12th overall pick was the Indiana Pacers.
The fall of the Pacers is baffling because they were still among the strong teams last season.
In fact, throughout the 1990s, they only missed the playoffs this year and fell into the lottery.
Some people say that it is because of their inner core, Swiss Rick Schmidz missed 30 games, but this does not completely explain their fall from the power of the east to the lottery.
The Pacers have a big problem with the game this season. As a strong Eastern team with a stable record of around 30 in the main players, not only did they not reinforce, but instead replaced the point guard and the main substitute at the beginning of the game. , And then straightened the second grade to start.
The exchanged Jaylen Rose should have been a good sixth man, but his overall ability was basically used as a million dollars, from 1 to 3 in the season, there is no guarantee of playing time, even because it does not meet Larry. Brown's request was DNP for a long time.
Coupled with the main injury and Miller’s contract renewal, even if Schmidz came back (25 wins and 27 losses) and replaced Mark Jackson (14 wins and 16 losses), the team’s chemical reaction has already been destroyed. , So they came to the lotto area after a long absence.
Mo Mengchen knew exactly what happened after that. Larry Bird entered the home to the Pacers as a head coach. Then, the Pacers returned to the ranks of the Eastern Powers. Byrd's understanding of the Bulls, Created a team that is extremely targeted at the Bulls.
Byrd's Pacers are also the only team on the Bulls' second three consecutive championships to force them into life and death.
The king got the eleventh round in the first round;
The Raptors got the tenth pick in the first round;
The Bucks got the ninth pick in the first round.
Did you find a weird?
Mo Mengchen looked back, no mistake, the tenth pick of the Raptors.
All McGrady fans know that the Raptors won McGrady with the ninth pick this year, but now the Raptors have fallen to the tenth pick.
Will this change something?
Does McGrady go to the Raptors? is it possible?
Mo Mengchen glanced at the Bucks upstairs. It should be said that this team's draft vision is not enough to make such a determination. They should not bet on McGrady. That is to say, the Raptors are very good. There is a chance to get McGrady, even if it is the tenth pick.
The eighth overall pick goes to the Warriors.
The seventh pick fell to the Nets.
"The Nets fell to seventh!"
Hill called out.
"So the Grizzlies are in the top five." Mo Mengchen said. "The only good thing so far."
"Good thing?"
"What a good thing?"
The traverser is lonely, how can he explain to these two guys how awesome Duncan is? How beneficial is it for them to go to the west with the bulls?
Although everyone dares to pack the ticket, as long as Duncan is not injured, he can contribute to the star level as soon as he enters the NBA, but no one still correctly recognizes Duncan's ability.
People are not ready to accept the arrival of another supernova who can contribute double-strikes in the rookie.
The sixth pick belongs to the Nuggets.
"Next is the top five!"
Mo Mengchen's soup was also cooked.
Carrying soup, he came to the dinner table and filled himself with a bowl.
"Mo, what is this?"
"good stuff."
"Give me a sip!"
Mo Mengchen gave him half a bowl: "Promise me, drink it all, even if it doesn't taste good."
Dumas drank.
His complexion became particularly exciting.
Although Mo Mengchen's craftsmanship is very good, the taste of mutton soup is not everyone can bear.
In order not to disappoint Mo Mengchen, Dumas took a deep breath and drank half a bowl of soup like poisoned wine.
Hill's attention has always been on TV.
The fifth pick came out!
"Celtic!"
The fourth pick is the Grizzlies.
"Fuck!"
Mo Mengchen exploded a swearing.
"What's wrong?" Hill asked.
what happened? Duncan is coming east!
The third pick belongs to the Philadelphia 76ers.
Then comes the top two.
Magic, or Celtics?
Mo Mengchen's heartbeat accelerated.
"Who do you want to win the top pick?" Dumas asked.
Hill Road: "Boston."
"Why?" Dumas continued to ask.
Hill said: "Boston is still rebuilding, Orlando just needs to wait for the penny to heal, plus Tim Duncan-if he is as powerful as the legend..."
It was at this time.
The second order lights up-Orlando Magic!
Even if the scene was silenced, Mo Mengchen still heard the slight cheers in front of the TV. Boston's wait for a whole year became a reality at this moment.
For the other eleven teams, this is disappointing.
The spell of the nineties disappeared, and the Celtics planned for a whole year, and finally got the starting power in the draft conference one month later.
After the draw, the Celtics' new head coach, general manager, and president of operations, Celtic Basketball Association Chairman Rick Pitino, showed the Green Army No. 21 jersey with Duncan's name on the spot.

PS: Before I finished this chapter, I didn't actually think about where to let Duncan go. Going to the magic is difficulty for the protagonist; going to the 76ers may overlap with some of the chapter settings that follow; for the Western team, it’s not interesting to go to the Spurs. Some book friends have recommended the Grizzlies, but this The team has no history, the management is like that, and it doesn’t make much sense. Thinking about it, it’s lazy to choose a Celtics who is not surprising.
