Chapter 655: NBA lockout

　　 "The 11th overall pick in the first round of the 2011 NBA Draft, the Golden State Warriors chose Kemba Walker. The 1.85-meter point guard is from the University of Connecticut."
　　 When Stern announced the Warriors' results, there was no cheers, only restlessness.
　　 Including Sun Hao in front of the TV was also taken aback.
　　 The Warriors chose the most unlikely person.
　　The only possibility of such an abnormality is that there is a transaction!
　　 Or in other words, whose replacement is Walker.
　　 Curry is really going to be traded?
　　 Sun Hao thought about this problem.
　　He is waiting.
　　 Although this wait may not have results.
　　 Because even if there is a deal, it may not be reached so quickly.
　　 The draft is still going on.
　　 At this time, the camera switched back to the TNT Big Three.
　　 The Big Three are also talking about the unusual choice of the Warriors.
　　 Even O'Neal, a semi-China player who has been Sun Hao's teammate for many years, has begun to tease whether the Warriors are going to join a table to play "Chinese Mahjong".
　　 But their discussion was suddenly interrupted. O'Neill picked up the phone and looked at it, then read a transaction message.
　　 is related to the Warriors.
　　 The Warriors made a deal with the Bucks.
　　 With the 11th pick in their hands and the 30th pick in their hands, they were traded for the 9th and 39th picks from the Bucks.
　　 And this transaction was basically reached before, and it was not announced because the two parties had some differences in the details of the transaction.
　　Because the Bucks want the Warriors' Danny Green, but the Warriors are more inclined to send their No. 30 pick.
　　 This also means that, in fact, it was the Bucks' decision to choose Walker, and Thompson was the Warriors' decision.
　　 As for the trade between the two teams, it was obvious that it was also to avoid the Kings, who also aimed at the three-point shooter.
　　 When Sun Hao saw this again, he was stunned again unconsciously.
　　 This draft is really a twists and turns.
　　 But in this way, Curry stayed temporarily.
seems not?
　　 Not choosing Walker is not a direct replacement for Curry, but according to the analysis of previous fans and the TNT Big Three, the Warriors will choose Thompson as a major premise, that is, the Warriors may have to abandon Oden or even trade Curry.
　　 At the thought of this, Sun Hao finally couldn't sit still, picking up the phone and preparing to call Mullin.
　　 Curry is his eldest nephew after all, he needs to know about Curry.
　　 But as soon as he picked up the phone, the phone rang first.
　　 Mullin called here.
　　 It seems that there should be no time for negotiation before. Now that the negotiation is over, I will talk to Sun Hao the first time.
　　 Sun Hao answered the phone, and Mullin said almost exactly what he guessed.
　　 The Warriors did have the idea of ​​sending Curry. When Thompson was selected, it was just waiting for Bell to retire, and Thompson would just be able to top it.
　　 "We think this is also a good thing for Stephen. Here he has a chance to become an All-Star, but we think his upper limit is more than that."
　　 Mullin said that the management has thought through it.
　　 Curry's shooting talent is too suitable for the Warriors, but salary space is a problem they have to face.
　　 And indeed in the Warriors because of Sun Hao, Curry can't fully exchange his talents.
　　 "If you really want to send it, give it to the team that suits him best."
　　 Sun Hao made the only request after coming to the Warriors.
　　Although Curry's upper limit is suppressed, we still have to see what he has learned in the Warriors over the past two years, which has also benefited him a lot.
　　 For a team, Curry may explode like Harden.
　　 The premise is that it must be the best team for him.
　　Mulin will naturally not object, but it will take some time to operate.
　　 Sun Hao finished the phone call, and the draft had already reached the 18th pick. The Wizards picked Kawhi Leonard in this pick!
　　 Sun Hao, he was taken aback.
　　 But soon, the deal was made on the screen, and the Spurs replaced Leonard!
　　 Sun Hao hadn't had time to express that Yao Ming finally had the chance to return to the finals, and then he vomited a mouthful of old blood.
　　 But this wave is actually normal.
　　 The abilities of the draft teams of each team also have their own focus. The Thunder are good at high-position picks, while the Spurs are low-position Taobao.
　　 It is true that Leonard was traded to the Spurs by the Pacers in history, but in fact the deal had been reached before, and the Pacers were just acting instead.
　　 Now the Wizards should also play a similar role.
　　 As for the drop of this pick, it is also related to the early advent of the small ball era.
　　Having the opportunity to develop does not mean that it will be developed.
　　 Leonard now looks more like Tony Allen, so it’s not surprising that he dropped out.
　　 In the eyes of Sun Hao, a traverser, it is somewhat embarrassing.
　　 Because Yao Ming may miss his final chance to win the championship.
　　 The draft is still going on, and Sun Hao continues to watch.
　　 There is another one worthy of his attention in the first round is Jimmy Butler.
　　 is not a question of whether the Warriors can be selected.
　　 The Warriors have the No. 30 pick, but they still have to trade up if they want to get Butler.
　　 The Bulls have already revealed their interest in Butler.
　　 The contract of Richard Hamilton on the Bulls has expired. If there is a choice, the management will not necessarily renew the veteran.
　　 Butler was known for his diligence in his college days, plus that face that resembled Jordan, it was a perfect substitute.
　　 This is what I said at the beginning, because the Bulls are holding the No. 27 pick.
　　 If Butler really went to the Bulls, that would also be good news for Yi Jianlian.
　　 The personalities of Paul and Butler are more compatible, including Bosh, this lineup is enough to fight the Knicks in the East.
　　 And the interesting thing to say is that if the Bulls really block the Knicks in the East, the Big Three in New York will probably stand at the top of the historical stigma.
　　 Really the hardest road.
　　 "A transaction happened."
　　 When the draft reached the 24th overall pick, Stern announced a deal ahead of schedule this time.
　　 The Lakers sent out the starting point guard Louis Williams and switched from the Magic to the 24th pick and the next second round pick.
　　 The idea of ​​this transaction is very clear.
　　 The Lakers have picked Knight, and Williams made way for Knight.
　　 As for the Magic, the relationship between Howard and the management became very poor after the team lost the playoffs last season.
　　 Well, this logic that doesn't sound very right is Howard's current logic.
　　 He feels that the team has not done a good job of reinforcement in the past few years, especially Lewis's billion yuan signing directly locks the future.
　　 With the existence of two super teams, the Knicks and Bulls, he feels that he has no early days in the Magic.
　　 is the ethos of not specifying the next house at this time, otherwise Howard is already on the shelf at this time.
　　 Now that the Magic have used the future to replace the current reinforcement, they are also doing their last efforts to retain Howard.
　　 "The 24th overall pick in the first round of the NBA in 2011, the Los Angeles Lakers chose Jimmy Butler, a 2.03 shooting guard, from Marquette University."
　　Hoo!
　　 Sun Hao was inexplicably relieved when he saw this choice.
　　 Butler is not well-known in the university, and Marquette University is not considered a prestigious university. Before this, he was only a Wade.
　　 The Lakers can intercept Hu Butler, this year's draft work is really good.
　　Sure enough, Phil Jackson is still not suitable to participate in management's decision-making. With his departure, Kupchak's ability has returned.
　　 Knight, Butler, Carter, Millsap, Hibbert, although this lineup has no chance to compete for the championship, there is still a chance to return to the playoffs.
　　 Although it was a bit unpleasant to leave the Lakers because of Phil Jackson and Jenny Buss, time can dilute everything. So many years have passed. Phil Jackson has already left the Lakers, and Sun Hao doesn't care about it anymore.
　　 Now that the Lakers are getting better and on the right track, he is naturally happy.
　　 The Bulls didn't get Butler, and in the end they had to go back and choose "Little Kobe" Marshan Brooks.
　　 From the selection point of view, they are ready for Hamilton to leave the team.
　　 The first round of the draft is over soon.
　　 In the second round, Sun Hao focused on the two draft picks.
　　 The Warriors picked Joan Loyle with the 39th overall pick, and then Isaiah Thomas with the 60th overall pick!
　　 These two waves of selection reflect West’s vision of selection.
　　 White Chocolate retired after winning the championship, and now there is a vacancy in the Warriors' guard line.
　　 If Jeremy Lin is now a free agent, the Warriors might open the window of cooperation with him again.
　　 But now Jeremy Lin plays so well with the Houston team, it is naturally impossible.
　　 The Warriors added the inside line first, and then added the outside line. This wave of operations was smooth and there was nothing wrong with it.
　　 Of course, like Jeremy Lin last year, Thomas may not be able to stay with the Warriors, because the Warriors do not lack people to hold the thighs, and the free market that follows is the highlight.
　　 At the end of the draft, the Warriors harvested Klay Thompson, Loyle and Thomas, and the operation was very eye-catching.
　　 But Sun Hao was not happy because of the fact that Curry would be traded.
　　He was going to talk to Curry after he finished his vacation in Los Angeles.
　　 In a blink of an eye, the end of June, according to the NBA's usual practice in previous years, as the door of the free market approaches, all kinds of rumors are already flying.
　　 But this year, the sky is full of rumors, not rumors, but labor-management negotiations.
　　 The two sides simply can't talk about being together now.
　　According to the current trend, the suspension is inevitable.
　　 Based on this matter, once the free market is closed, the free market will automatically close, so rumors will naturally disappear.
　　 This also caused a lot of time to stop unconsciously.
　　 Such as Sun Hao's contract extension with the Warriors, such as Curry's trade.
　　 On July 1, 2011, labor and management still failed to reach an agreement after 18 hours of continuous negotiations, and the NBA officially entered a lockout.
　　 The impact of the suspension is direct and huge.
　　 After the lockout, players will not receive salaries, and NBA teams cannot negotiate with players, nor can they sign or trade players.
At the same time, players cannot use the team’s training facilities for any reason, and the team cannot hold any summer training camps, exhibitions, team meetings, and coaching meetings. The NBA team website can no longer use the image of the player or use the player as a promotion. representative.
　　 Or to put it more directly, the lockout will cause a large number of NBA-related staff to temporarily lose their jobs, and even some NBA players will face serious financial crisis as a result.
　　 Because for many players, playing is their only income.
　　 The suspension made them lose their income, but their expenditures will not decrease.
　　 In order to survive, many players have already planned to go overseas to play.
　　 This includes Deron Williams, who suffered another "58 tragedy" last season.
　　 It is rumored that he will go to Turkey to play because the teams there are willing to provide a good salary and have an "NBA exit clause", that is, if the NBA lockout ends, they will be able to return to the home team as soon as possible.
　　 Many players also plan to go to China to play.
　　 The basketball influence brought by Sun Hao, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian and others is huge. Now the domestic basketball market is much larger than in the same period in history.
　　 Sun Hao knows that this year in history will be closed, but the distribution of interests is not something that can be controlled by personal power.
　　 He has no interest in the commercial negotiations.
　　 On the contrary, the suspension is not entirely bad for him.
　　 He can think about Curry.
　　 Just the day before he was about to end his vacation and return to Auckland, Sun Hao suddenly received an unexpected call.
　　 The call was from Kupchak.
　　 After leaving the Lakers, Sun Hao didn't have much contact with the Lakers management, and the few contacts were with Kupchak.
　　 So the matter of receiving Kupchak’s call is not unexpected in itself.
　　 But what was unexpected was what Kupchak said on the phone.
　　 Old Buss’ body deteriorated very quickly, and now he wants to see Sun Hao.
　　 This incident was completely beyond Sun Hao's expectations.
　　 If he remembers correctly, Old Buss has at least two years to live.
　　 Now it seems that the children's struggle that arrived early has made Old Buss exhausted.
　　 Don’t underestimate the mood, especially for cancer patients.
　　The good or bad mood will largely determine the length of life.
　　 Sun Hao had no reason to refuse such a request. After explaining to Scarlett, he drove directly to the manor of Old Bath.
　　The old Bath family members are all in the backyard of the manor, including the children of Bath and Jenny, as well as Kuocek who called him before.
　　 He walked over and greeted all the acquaintances he knew, and then he saw Old Buss.
　　 Not far from the golf hillside, Old Buss was sitting in a wheelchair with only a doctor by his side.
　　 It was already 6 o'clock in the afternoon, the sun had set, and the horizon was already setting sun.
　　 The afterglow shot through the clouds ~EbookFREE.me~ and sprinkled on Old Buss, there is an indescribable sense of twilight.
　　 "Sun, my father said he only wants to see you alone."
　　 After greeting Sun Hao, Little Buss continued to speak.
　　 Sun Hao nodded, and then a bodyguard guided him towards the hillside.
　　 approached, Sun Hao noticed that Old Buss was wearing an oxygen respirator and his eyes were closed.
　　 If it weren't for the chest to fall, you wouldn't know that this was a living person.
　　 It seems that he is really not far away.
　　 But as soon as Sun Hao walked closer, Old Buss opened his eyes.
　　 He motioned for the doctor to take off the oxygen mask for himself, and then motioned for the bodyguard and the doctor to leave.
　　 "Sorry to trouble you at this time."
　　 Old Buss took a deep breath, then spoke.
　　 "I have a lot of time now."
　　 Sun Hao squatted down beside Old Buss’ wheelchair as he said.
　　 When he was with the Lakers, Old Buss was not bad to Sun Hao.
　　 Moreover, a legendary figure who has survived, Sun Hao did this to give his due respect.
