Chapter 437: [Target, 2 swingers! 】


The next day, Yang Rui sent Kupchak an e-mail, four draft goals, two first choices, two alternatives.
The No. 8 pick preferred Andre Iguodala, height 198CM, weight 95 kg, template is Pippen.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Iguodala's greatest achievement was to win the 2015 championship and finals MVP, and played a significant role in defending James. He is an all-round fighter, but he is not suitable for being a leader, so when he has good stats, he is leading the 76ers to the edge of the playoffs.
Alternative Andris Biedrins, a Latvian center with a height of 211 cm and a weight of 109 kg. His physical fitness is explosive and his offensive ability needs to be developed.
The Lakers can only play Yao Ming, Odom, Robert Holly, Brian Cook, and still need a big man.
Biedrins is too skinny, fighting against the average, free throws and Ben Wallace level. Yang Rui is not interested in training, knowing that he can't practice shooting. The reason for choosing him is that the inside is valuable and can trade with other teams in exchange for the people the team needs. For example, if you change Josh Smith down, the opponent can also get a second-round pick next year.
Yang Rui believes that the most valuable people in this draft are Iguodala and Josh Smith. Both of them have superb physical fitness and are both slam dunk kings. They have high defensive enthusiasm and versatility, and are worth training. Whether they play positional battles or fast breaks, they can play a role.
In the second round, Trevor Ariza is the best role player, with strong mobility and the potential to become a 3D player.
He is 203 cm tall, weighs 98 kg, has a wingspan of 218 cm, and has excellent body data. The reason why he will fall to the second round is because his offensive technique is too rough.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Ariza had not practiced the offensive technique of holding the ball, and it was excellent without the ball. If you let him hold the ball to attack, he is "iron slag"...
Second choice point guard Chris Duhon, 185CM tall and 84 kg weight, is a real guard.
Du Hong graduated from Duke University. After four years of college, he lacked the potential. The advantage is that playing steadily will not mess up. He made breakthroughs and his organization ability was average. His main scoring method was three-pointers. He won the McDonald's High School All-Star Three-Point Contest in 2000. He is also more active in defense and suitable for the Lakers system.
Yang Rui remembered that Ariza was late in the ranking and should be able to be selected. The point guard is more inclined to find veterans in the free market. He does not need to have the strength to play the starter. The focus is on imparting rookie experience.
On June 25, the 2004 Draft was held at the Garden Theater in Madison Square, New York.
As always, David Stern was still booed by fans. Last season's playoffs were fair, but useless, fans just like to boo him, boo is healthier!
The Magic won the No. 1 pick, and the outside world agreed that Emeka Okafor would become the No. 1 pick, and he was an instant center. Magic chose high school student center Dwight Howard, the management is more willing to bet on Howard's talent.
Jordan's Bobcats selected Okafor, an outstanding defensive center.
Jordan called Yang Rui and proposed to join forces. Yang Rui said that he already had a choice and refused.
The Supersonics picked the pick and selected the dual energy defender Ben Gordon.
The Bucks fired George Carl, leaving Ray Allen as the core team. Supersonics, after Payton left, no star joined, playing badly. Ben Gordon will definitely be supersonic as the core training, Rashard Lewis is not the boss's material, will not the ball, the two do not know what kind of sparks can be created.
The Clippers, who had been at the bottom for consecutive years, ranked fourth. Manager Elgin Baylor chose high school student guard Sean Livingston. Livingston looks thin like a drug addict, but it doesn't work at first glance, but the Clippers management believes he can be a 201CM star point guard.
This is Lord Baylor's vision, and soon ships.
The Hawks selected the swingman Josh Childress in fifth place. Although there were rumors that the Eagles would trade guard Terry, they skipped Devin Harris.
In sixth place, the Warriors chose point guard Devin Harris, the fastest player in this rookie.
The seventh place is the 76ers, which is the team that makes Yang Rui most nervous. Fortunately, the 76ers' first choice is not Iguodala, they chose the swingman Roal Deng, the immediate power of the small forward position.
Luo Erdeng is not as good as Iguodala, but has a comprehensive skill. In Yang Rui’s previous life, Luo Erdeng was selected by the Bulls, so they went second.
In the eighth place, the Lakers successfully selected Iguodala, and a Superman got it.
In front of the TV set, Yang Rui was relieved. Iguodala is an excellent young man, and he has immediate combat strength. He played well in the first season of the 76ers. Both offense and defense can help the team, and he is very powerful during the fast break.
With Kobe on the team, Iguodala doesn't need to hold the ball, just do what he is good at. Yang Rui is going to train him to become a player like Marion. He mainly scores in air cuts and fast breaks. If the position is well-trained, he will pass the fixed-point three points. If the training is good, he will be a perfect 3D player.
In Yang Rui's previous life, Iguodala did the core in the 76ers, peaked with 19.9 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.8 assists, but the efficiency is not high. The 76ers hope that he can become the boss, the fact proves that he is not the material at all, he is more efficient to play without the ball.
The Cavaliers ranked ninth with their low and low record. They chose center Rafael Arauyo, 211CM tall and 125 kg body shield center. Poor physical fitness and wingspan bad.
In Yang Rui's previous life, this man was selected by the Raptors eighth overall ~ EbookFREE.me ~ only three seasons without a ball to play, poor defense makes him unable to gain a foothold in the NBA. When he was in college, he could bully his peers with his weight and entered the NBA. Too many people could resist him, and his speed became a disadvantage.
Yang Rui suspected the James tragedy, at least next season, the Cavaliers record is difficult to improve.
The teams behind the strong players and Yang Rui's previous life have not changed much, and there is no change in the changes.
Al Jefferson still went to the Celtics. The Green Army lacks a meat shield center. He is an underrated rookie, but has obvious disadvantages and weak offense and defense.
JR Smith was selected by the Hornets. He has potential. Yang Rui does not know whether he will meet Byron Scott. The Hornets will change coaches this summer. If Smith meets a good coach, he may be stronger. some.
In the second round, the Lakers selected Ariza in the 8th position. As a result, the Lakers 2 and 3 starting substitutes are all available. A strong man like Devin George who plays by the body has no place in the team. Trading out in the summer is a good bargaining chip, and Yang Rui already has someone in mind.
After the draft meeting ended, Yang Rui called Kupchak and expressed his satisfaction.
Kupchak asked, "What do we do next?"
"Change someone, try to send out George, and hope that the other party will like it." Yang Rui answered.
"Is this okay? Although George had average figures last season, he played 5 seasons and has rich experience. If he leaves and does not renew Fox in the summer, our strikers are all newcomers." Kupchak smiled wryly.
"Trust me, the striker is okay. If we can, Robert Horry, we have to trade. Cook can make a three-pointer. The two of them overlap. Horry can’t run, it’s difficult to play in my system. There is no way to make a meat shield."
"With whom?"
"eagle!"
