Chapter 421: 2005 NBA Draft

Latest URL:
Kobe Turned Back Shot Package: Increases the waist and abdomen strength by 10%, and increases the stability of the Turned Back Shot by 20%!
Unlike the previous Jordan turned and broke through the badge, this is a complete shooting bag!
This is not surprising. Five years ago, Sun Hao and Kobe were very different in strength, but the system issued such a hidden mission.
Looking back now, it was basically a big pie drawn by the system for Sun Hao.
Of course the cake was there after it was drawn. After five years, Sun Hao finally ate it!
With this combination of backwards and turning around, he will have another "killing weapon" in his arsenal next season!
Kobe was a little unconvinced, and went head-to-head with Sun Hao. This time he played even better, scoring three goals.
But in the end, Sun Hao defeated him 5 to 3.
It was not until the third game that he relied on his excellent touch to win a game 5 to 4.
After the fight, Kobe actually realized that he could not prevent Sun Hao, but Sun Hao had a certain chance to prevent him.
Although the possibility of the two being singled out is more likely to explode, the odds of Sun Hao winning are already greater than him.
Or in other words, Sun Hao has already beaten him in the singles he is most proud of.
Of course, consciousness belongs to consciousness, Kobe will not admit it, because he knows that he will continue to grow stronger!
This heads-up is the motivation to stimulate him to work harder!
At the end of the exhibition match, Sun Hao, Kobe and Scarlett left the carrier together, and the soldiers cheered them enthusiastically.
Before leaving, Moses also gave them two customized naval medals to thank them for their performances for the soldiers.
Although it is not the same thing as the Navy Cross, this practice still makes Sun Hao and Kobe happy.
After leaving the aircraft carrier, Scarlett returned to the villa to rest. Sun Hao and Kobe sat on the beach and chatted.
"I actually always have a question, how did you make progress so fast?"
The two chatted for a while, but Kobe couldn't help turning his head to look at Sun Hao.
"I mean I haven't seen how hard you train, but your progress is so hard to imagine."
Kobe finally asked this question that many people might have.
Sun Hao didn't expect Kobe to ask about this at this time, but his reaction speed was still very fast.
"talent."
Just as sometimes when you encounter something that you can't explain, you put him in the category of metaphysics. When you can't explain your openness, talent is the best excuse.
Kobe froze for a moment, then nodded with a wry smile.
Talent, just like McGrady.
It's just that McGrady is a visible physical talent, and Sun Hao is an invisible talent.
In fact, this is a dark and refreshing thing. It is obvious that Sun Hao has practiced more in the system than Kobe, but from Kobe's point of view, Sun Hao belongs to the kind of person who can make rapid progress without much training.
One sentence of talent, full of fun.
"Kobe, Shaq is a good guy. You should try to ease the relationship with him. Not everyone has the opportunity to be a teammate for 8 years in your life."
After talking about talent, Sun Hao remembered O'Neill's previous decision and turned to Kobe.
After listening, Kobe looked at the distant sea for a moment of silence.
He did not respond to Sun Hao's words until the two separated.
There is no answer, which means that we can only use time to see how Kobe answered.
...
After the trip to Hawaii, Sun Hao returned to Los Angeles.
At this time, another thing that attracted the attention of fans immediately began: the 2005 draft.
Compared with last year's draft, this year there are fewer top talented players like Howard, but the topic is a little bit more.
Among them, the existence of Deron, Paul and Felton at the top of the NCAA has given this draft the label of a guard year.
This is relatively rare in the drafts that have always admired big men.
In addition, the "Fourths of North Carolina" also attracted attention.
Marvin Williams, Felton, Sean May, Rashard McCants.
These four are not well-known at first glance, but that is because their overall performance in the NBA in the future is not satisfactory. They were full of popularity in the draft year.
Marvin Williams is 2 meters 06, with comprehensive skills, offensive and defensive, is the most talented of the four, and is also the most highly expected.
Felton is 1.85 meters tall, but his physical fitness is superb. With the examples of Iverson and Sun Hao ahead, his draft prospects are also very optimistic.
In addition, Sean May, who won the MOP, had his talents in the NBA if it weren't ruined by injuries in history.
McCants is North Carolina's scoring leader. His height and style of play are easily reminiscent of that man.
In history, the four North Carolina minors were selected 2/5/13/14 with four lottery picks. This is the best proof.
In addition, there is also Bogut, an overseas player who is very likely to become the top pick.
Sun Hao's success has increased the NBA's attention to European guards, and Yao Ming's success has made overseas big men a sweet potato.
Of course, these are not the points that Sun Hao focuses on. What he focuses on is what the Bulls will do on draft night.
The lottery for the draft has ended before, and the ownership of the lottery is very different from the history.
Charlotte Without Jordan, our European team, the Bobcats team, succeeded in winning the No. 1 pick after being automatically assigned the No. 4 pick by the league last year!
From some perspectives, this is understandable. The current prosperity of the league makes Stern eager to train the Bobcats, and it is not too much to give a junior champion.
The second pick belongs to the Milwaukee Bucks.
The third overall pick belongs to the New Orleans Hornets.
The fourth overall pick belongs to the Chicago Bulls (traded for draft picks from the New York Knicks).
The fifth overall pick belongs to the Atlanta Hawks.
The sixth overall pick belongs to the Utah Jazz.
The seventh overall pick belongs to the Portland Trail Blazers.
The eighth overall pick belongs to the Toronto Raptors.
The ninth pick belongs to the Los Angeles Clippers.
The tenth overall pick belongs to the Chicago Bulls.
Well, compared with history, this should be considered a mess.
So even Sun Hao doesn't know what will happen in this draft.
Because according to this order, if the Hornets choose the same as in history, then the Bulls must fully trade with the first and second teams.
But even in the young draft, the value of the champion and second place is very high.
Even if the Bulls hold two lotteries and want to trade them, they have to pay some young players.
...
On draft night, Sun Hao flew to New York by plane. He met Yi Jianlian at the hotel.
Yi Jianlian performed well with the Bulls last season and can even be said to be the core of the Bulls. Therefore, he received the treatment that he helped the Bulls in the draw before and accompanied the team to watch the draft.
Of course, even if the Bulls won't let him come, he will come.
Sun Hao said that this year's draft will give him a leap in his career. He also wants to know who will be his future partner on the scene.
"How about the national team?"
Sun Hao first cared about the situation of the national team. Although this is not the first time that he and Yao Ming have not participated in an Asian event, this is the first time Yi Jianlian has carried the banner and was given high hopes. The pressure is certainly not small.
"There's no way out."
An extremely familiar answer, and Yi Jianlian said with a smile.
The change in personality, coupled with the experience of the Bulls last season, has made him much more cheerful and confident than in history.
In fact, this is how people are. The same person will eventually become two very different people under different circumstances.
Also like Milicic, he was depressed under Brown in history, and finally became the second best in history.
But now, he is also in Cleveland.
Yi Jianlian became an All-Star by virtue of his strength?
Following this rhythm, as Francis said in front of reporters in New York, that is something that must happen.
"I'm waiting to see you win the championship, remember to let me touch your trophy."
Sun Hao said with a smile.
"Don't you own it yourself?"
Yi Jianlian was stunned when he heard that, and the subsequent answer made Sun Hao a little embarrassed.
Sun Hao continued to laugh.
As long as he is not embarrassed, others are embarrassed.
"Do you want to partner with Chris Paul or Deron Williams?"
After laughing, Sun Hao changed the subject.
He had asked Yi Jianlian this question before, but the current situation has changed since then.
At that time, the NCAA had just ended, and there was still relatively little information about rookies.
However, after the trial training, many agents will also dig out and promote some gimmicky stories of rookies. Popular rookies like Paul and Deron are already relatively transparent.
Moreover, this time point is no better than when Sun Hao first joined the alliance. The network has developed rapidly, especially in North America, where Facebook is available, and the spread of this information is naturally faster.
"Chris Paul."
Yi Jianlian also gave an affirmative answer this time.
"I heard Cameron talk about him, saying he is a leading guard."
Yi Jianlian also gave an explanation.
Sun Hao nodded when he heard this.
Yi Jianlian is now in the 03 generation. After his personality change, he has a good relationship with several people in the 03 generation.
This can be seen from the exchanges between them during the previous All-Star Game.
Some people will say that the relationship is so good. Why did James invite Yi Jianlian to train with him?
Because Yi Jianlian is preparing for the Asian Championships!
And Yi Jianlian said that Anthony, the two are in the 03 generation and both are in the east, and it is normal to communicate more.
In addition, Paul also went to James' training camp under Duncan's recommendation. It is reasonable for Yi Jianlian to answer this way.
This is similar to what Sun Hao expected.
One is that Paul's career is longer than that of Deron;
Second, Paul’s character is more suitable for Yi Jianlian than Delong;
Third, Deron’s success has a lot to do with Sloan, but Paul has his own coaching attributes on the court;
Of course, there are four. Paul's own air-receiving team attribute fits well with Yi Jianlian's ability to run and jump.
Then the question now is whether the Bulls can pick Paul.
"By the way, didn't Xiao Zhu come with you?"
After talking about Yi Jianlian's partner, Sun Hao asked Zhu Fangyu by the way.
Last year, Zhu Fangyu attracted some attention, but at that time there was no team trial for him, and he did not sign up in advance.
But this year, Zhu Fangyu has reached the age for automatic election.
"He said he didn't want to be sad."
Sun Hao was stunned when he heard Yi Jianlian's answer, and then couldn't help laughing.
What Zhu Fangyu said is cute.
But also, it seems that there is no team looking for him to try out this year. It would be a bit sad to watch him lose the draft on the spot.
That night, the 2005 NBA Draft was held at Madison Square Garden in New York.
The scene is still packed, but something different from previous years is that the number of New York fans this year may be the fewest.
Don't ask why, the question is that last season's suffocation operation not only prevented the Knicks from making the playoffs, but also gave the draft pick to the former rival Chicago.
With this kind of operation, New York fans have the heart to kill "Smiling Assassin" Isaiah Thomas.
If it weren't for Thomas to resign and slip quickly at the end of the season, there might be a personal safety issue.
But it turned out to be such a result. The Bobcats fans were the most visited.
The first pick in team history! What an exciting moment!
Although this team has only two years of history...
Sun Hao and Yi Jianlian were also there, but instead of sitting in the auditorium, he went to the Lakers draft office.
The things he suggested to Jordan had already been said last year after Jordan was drunk.
Kupchak and Little Buss are already dependent on Sun Hao, and with the champion last year, they value Sun Hao's advice even more.
Of course, "The Emperor's Wrath" exudes the light of the right way.
Therefore, at such an important moment as the draft, they pulled Sun Hao to the draft cabin and operated normally.
"Are there any candidates for the second round show?"
Little Buss asked directly.
And there is nothing wrong with his questioning method.
The Lakers' first-round pick has been traded to the Mavericks.
Now they only hold their No. 60 pick, which is basically air.
They want to operate in the draft, the only way is to use future draft picks and cash to exchange other people's picks.
This kind of transaction is difficult to get the first round, but the second round is relatively easy.
When Little Buss said, the assistant had already handed Sun Hao the list of this year's draft.
Sun Hao looked through it, and many of the names on it also awakened the memories deep in his mind.
He didn't pay attention to it before, and only then found out that this year's draft is a Taobao new year!
These names are second-round picks in history: Monta Ellis, Louis Williams, Brandon Bass, CJ Miles, Eisen Ilyasova, Andre Blatche, Ryan Gomez, Marcin Gortat, Vaughan Weaver, Ronnie Turiaf...
Among these people, there are All-Stars, main players and substitutes. The common point is that they have played their own places in the NBA as second-round picks.
Sun Hao's eyes finally swept back and forth between Blatche and Williams.
Among this group of people, Ellis is the strongest at the peak, but his style of play is a bit waver to be honest, and his career efficiency has not been very good.
And in his peak years in the Warriors, the Warriors never made the playoffs.
If the Lakers want to choose a guard, they either choose a strong defensive player who can start with Sun Hao, or they are the sixth man.
Then Williams will obviously be a better choice.
It's just that he heard rumors that Gary Payton came to the Lakers for a good trial, and the Lakers might sign him.
Then the selection of Williams is used to train.
Considering Malone's retirement, the Lakers will be short of power forwards, and Blatche is a more suitable candidate.
Sun Hao, the player Blatche, can be said to be quite familiar.
Because of Yi Jianlian, the Wizards also have some domestic fame, so Blatche, who later played for the Wizards, is also known.
After that, Blatche couldn't mix in the NBA to the CBA, even if he became a household name.
Of course, his reputation is not too good, he has a strange personality, a bad temper, and a passion for singles.
However, Blatche was a qualified starter in the NBA. Although his defense was average, his offense was more comprehensive, with both singles and mid-range. In his peak period, the Wizards averaged 16.8 points and 8.3 rebounds per game.
More importantly, Blatche is one of the few who can play the sixth man inside.
Even to some extent, the sixth person is the most suitable for him.
In the two seasons before leaving the NBA, he averaged about 20 minutes per game for the sixth man, contributed about 11 points, and hit 50% from the field, making him the two most efficient seasons of his career.
"You get more points if you can score, and you can watch the defense." This is basically the quality that the sixth man needs.
But Sun Hao didn't decide which one at the end, because there was a free agent market behind him, and he didn't know if Kupchak was talking with other people.
Because O'Neal's contract expires this summer, the Lakers can renew their contract.
This means that as long as the team is willing to pay the luxury tax, tens of millions of players can also sign.
If you really sign a strong player, Blatche will not be so good.
So his last advice to Buzz is Williams or Blatche, whoever you choose depends on the situation.
Little Buzz glanced at Kupchak, and Kupchak nodded.
He is following up with these two players, especially Williams, who has trained with Sun Hao before, which is considered to be their favorite.
Sun Hao didn't care about these details. He gave the advice that should be given. Whoever can be selected depends on Kupchak's operation.
When he came out of the draft cabin, he went to the auditorium to sit with Yi Jianlian.
It's just that his hasn't been hot yet, and James leads Paul over to say hello to him.
Asked why James appeared in the draft?
On the one hand, Paul was running for the election, and on the other hand, "The Emperor's Wrath" was not unique to Sun Hao.
"This is my new brother Chris."
When James introduced Paul to Sun Hao, his face was quite proud.
This kind of pride can also be understood. As Sun Hao's fan, now he also has his own little brother.
"Hey, Chris."
Sun Hao held back the half sentence behind "close the door".
People in this era don't know the stalk of his time. Yesterday, I was in that awkwardness when chatting with Yi Jianlian.
"Sun."
Paul was possessed when shaking hands, and his tone was very respectful.
Sun Hao's current achievements are comparable to or even surpassing Kobe, for Paul is the kind of person who stands at the top of the league, and he is just a rookie who has not been selected.
"If you have a chance to go to Chicago, it's a good deal. He is my brother."
When Sun Hao spoke, he looked back at Yi Jianlian.
Yi Jianlian also got up and greeted Paul.
The NBA is actually a worldly human being.
After the greeting here, Paul will return to the little green room first, and the draft will begin soon.
Sun Hao and Yi Jianlian also looked at the stage, and Stern walked out from behind the scenes.
Compared with five years ago, he is much older. The most obvious feature is that the white hair has covered his entire hair.
Regardless of the industry, the person at the helm is the oldest and fastest, because ordinary people can't imagine how annoying things are in that position.
The overbearing president is just something in the movie, the real people, let you do it, you may do it for a few days, and you would rather be an ordinary person.
There were fewer New York fans at the scene, but he was greeted with boos.
As long as it is a basketball game, there will be a controversial whistle every year. The second game of the Finals Big Ben did not blow that foul on O'Neal, which is enough to make fans boo him.
Of course, this is only one reason, and the more reason is that fans have already regarded this as a habit.
Stern also responded with a smile as in the past. After the boo fell, he announced the beginning of the draft with a familiar opening remark.
The first pick belongs to the Bobcats, they have five minutes to prepare.
Sun Hao, his eyes were full of curiosity at this time.
Because the team already has Okafor, who the Bobcats will choose is actually very suspenseful.
The possibility of choosing Bogut to play the Twin Towers is not impossible, but the possibility is not high. After all, Bogut is also a defensive insider like Okafor;
Or they will choose Marvin Williams, who was close to them before, but the latter's talent is obviously not up to the champion level;
Or they will trade the No. 1 lottery to other teams directly, and directly exchange for a famous star. This possibility is the greatest.
Of course, Sun Hao is curious about whether the Bulls can pick Paul or Deron as the top pick, and then there will be one more top pick in NBA history.
Time flew fast, and just as Sun Hao was thinking about it, Stern had once again walked out from behind the scenes.
At this time, Yi Jianlian shook his hands together on his knees, looking a little nervous.
Sun Hao is completely irrelevant, but Yi Jianlian may be his partner next season.
Stern smiled and glanced at the audience, then announced the Bobcats' choice.
There is no trade. There have been rumors about teams interested in Bogut, and the Bucks are ranked first.
But the Bucks have little trade value except for Reid.
And the Bucks also know that the Bobcats will not pick Bogut, so they just need to wait quietly for the Bobcats to finish.
"In the first round of the NBA in 2005, the Charlotte Bobcats chose Marvin Williams. The 2.06 forward was from the University of North Carolina."
The Bobcats finally chose Williams!
Sun Hao's expression upon hearing this result... a bit complicated!
Not to mention that Williams was on the bench for Sean May in North Carolina, just talk about history.
Williams is the second place in history, but his career performance has actually not reached the standard of second place. It is not a parallel import, but at most it is a qualified starter.
Now history has changed, and Williams has gone from second place to top pick!
Williams must have saved the universe in his last life!
Williams was also a little surprised, but the smile on his face already explained his mood.
Becoming the top pick, even if it's a young draft pick, who would be unhappy!
There were boos and applause at the scene.
Sun Hao's choice was to reach out and applaud.
This applause is not entirely a congratulation to Williams, but... Bogut was not considered the champion!
Don't ask why Bogut is not as happy as the champion, but Bogut is not a human being.
Of course, the Bucks are still very happy. After the Bobcats, they picked up a leak and picked Bogut with the second pick.
It's just that Bogut's expression was not very good when he came to power, obviously he thought he should be the number one pick.
After the first two picks are selected, the third pick seems particularly interesting.
Because according to the talent and strength rankings, including the pre-game draft forecast, how the third is also a guard.
Sun Hao also took out his cell phone to communicate with Fu Paul at this time, hoping to get some instant messages from the latter.
It's a pity that woj is not well-known at this time, the media and brokers may not have many channels of information, and the speed is not fast enough.
Until Stern walked from behind the scenes to the front again, Sun Hao didn't get any definite news.
He put the phone down, then looked at the stage.
Stern's first sentence is very important, whether it is a deal or a choice, and who to choose.
At this moment, he found that Yi Jianlian's hand rubbing speed was increasing.
This is obviously a little nervous.
"At least Deron and Paul, one of them will definitely become teammates with you."
Sun Hao patted Yi Jianlian on the shoulder, then spoke.
Yi Jianlian was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.
There is nothing wrong with that!
"The third overall pick in the first round of the NBA in 2005, the New Orleans Hornets chose..."
There is no trade, or maybe the trade is after the draft.
But no matter which kind, this choice will be made by the Hornets.
At this time, Sun Hao showed a wry smile at the corner of his mouth.
It seems that Yi Jianlian is likely to partner with Delong.
Deron is also very good, pick-and-roll master, Yi Jianlian may have less frequency of empty picks, but more dunks after receiving the ball.
Speaking of which, Ma Long has a good relationship with him now. He can ask Ma Long to guide Yi Jianlian.
Chicago Shuangsha?
It sounds good too!
"Deron Williams, 1.91m point guard, from the University of Illinois."
However, the choice Stern announced after a pause made him stunned for a while.
What? The Hornets choose Deron? !
This...this is not right!
He said that the queen bee is just gone?
"Great!"
Yi Jianlian's excited cry from the side pulled him back from shock.
After returning to his senses, Sun Hao decided one thing: In history, the Hornets chose Paul not because they wanted to choose, but because Deron was selected in advance!
It's right to think about it, not all 1.83 meters are him. Compared with Paul, Deron is as high as 1.91 meters. This is his biggest advantage.
And really to say that the pure personal strength of the two rookies, Deron is better than Paul in combination.
Playing Paul during dinner and sleep is a true portrayal of the two in the early stages of their NBA career.
So with this analysis, the Hornets are completely fine with Deron.
It's just that this greatly changed history really makes people look forward to it.
Deron became the queen bee, what height the Hornets can reach, this sounds like a very interesting thing for Sun Hao, a traverser.
And just like Yi Jianlian’s excitement, it means Paul is going to Chicago!
Oh huh! The city of Chicago is coming!
He turned his head and patted Yi Jianlian on the shoulder and was also happy for the latter.
Those who play outside hope to have a good inside partner, and those who play inside naturally want to have a good outside partner.
Not to mention next season, the Bulls are likely to rise in the next few years.
Five minutes later, Stern once again walked from behind the scenes to the front of the stage.
Although the Bulls are very likely to pick Paul, both Yi Jianlian and Sun Hao are staring at the stage intently.
Klaus has done quite a lot in the past. If he comes to exchange for Deron with a draft pick, it will be able to flash their waists.
"The fourth overall pick in the first round of the 2005 NBA, the Chicago Bulls chose..."
Because the draft picks have already been traded, it has nothing to do with the Knicks whether it is the draw or the draft announcement.
With a habitual pause, Stern attracted everyone's attention.
"Chris Paul, 1.83-meter point guard, from Wake Forest University."
Fortunately, Klaus stabilized this time, he chose Paul!
Comfortable now.
Sun Hao felt comfortable for Yi Jianlian.
A good guard can make everyone taller, just like Chandler in history.
and many more!
Chandler seems to be still in the Bulls?
This is, a replica of the Hornets? !
It's just that West is replaced by Yi Jianlian!
Now it's more stable.
Sun Hao suddenly felt that everything in UU reading www.uukanshu.com was operated by the hand of God.
Yi Jianlian used to go to the Bulls, and now the Bulls will select Paul, it is a matter of heaven!
Paul was in a good mood when he got up.
Although he was one place lower than Deron in the pick, it made him a little unhappy.
But Chicago!
Not to mention that Chicago is a big city, just because of Jordan, there is the basketball mecca for players.
To have the opportunity to chase the of basketball, this sounds like a very exciting thing.
Not to mention that when James took him to greet Sun Hao before, he had already met Yi Jianlian's future partner.
The NBA version is so friendly and sophisticated, and it goes live!
The draft is still going on, and Sun Hao continues to pay attention.
Until the ninth overall pick, Sun Hao's attention was drawn again.
The Los Angeles Clippers drafted Andrew Bynum with the ninth overall pick!
"The Little Prince of Bowling" is his nickname, but what you can't deny is that Bynum, in the Lakers era, once succeeded Howard and became the league's first center.
This choice is actually very interesting.
One is that Bynum was selected by the Lakers in history. Now the Lakers are the defending champion, it is naturally impossible to pick him again.
It turned out that he was destined to start his career in Los Angeles. If he couldn't go to the Lakers, he would go to the Clippers next door!
The second is the growth of Bynum and Kobe, and the coaching team of the Lakers are inseparable. It is a big question mark whether the Clippers next door can play like in history.
After all, Bynum's pure talent is actually not that outstanding, otherwise he would not have fallen to this pick in the draft.
The 2005 draft, which changed because of him, is getting more and more interesting!
