v2 Chapter 291: 2009 NBA Draft (3/4!)

Morey didn't see it directly, and Xibodu came over to say hello to Tang Tian.

Tang Tian's previous guess was correct. Even without official announcement, Xibodu has already begun the job of head coach.

"I let John be my temporary first assistant." Thibodeau turned to introduce Tang Tian.

"Don." John Lucas II stood out from behind at this time and greeted Tang Tian.

"Very good, help Tom well."

After Tang Tian spoke, he greeted Smith, the first scout at the back.

All old acquaintances, but he did not see the team's deputy general manager Keith Jones.

"What about Case?" Tang Tian asked.

"Tom, what are you doing?" Just then, a urging voice came from the far end.

When Lucas II and Smith heard that, they turned and walked there, and Thibodeau was leaving.

"Case was fired shortly after you left the Rockets." Before he left, Thibodeau said.

Fired?

Tang Tian hasn't had much contact with Jones, but knows that Jones is a ten-year veteran of the Rockets, so he was fired?

Go back and ask.

With confusion, Tang Tian and Dante continued to move forward and entered the Cavaliers draft cabin.

The hut is not big, but only the two of them, the feeling is still weird.

However, this also saves the trouble of discussions, whoever he wants to choose is up to him.

The Cavaliers ranked third in the league in the regular season record last year, with the No. 27 pick in the first round. In the second round, they have traded one last season and have the No. 46 pick.

Two picks, this is what a team should normally have, but it is obviously not enough for Tang Tian who opened the eyes and defined the goal as a bad one this season.

The cornerstones of this year's draft are all in the top ten. The Cavaliers can't trade chips other than James. As for the lottery, it's not worth the big price, so Tang Tian's goal is still wheel.

The success rate of this year's round show is surprisingly high.

Tell Dante the signing you want, and the latter will soon communicate with the teams.

Negotiations are underway, and at this time, the 2009 NBA Draft in small TV officially kicked off.

Due to changes in performance and trading, some changes have occurred in the draft pick this year and Tang Tian's memory.

However, these lottery picks are almost the same as in previous lives, and are basically in the hands of those who put the team down.

"The 2009 NBA first round first pick belongs to the Los Angeles Clippers. They have 5 minutes to consider."

The first pick still belongs to the Clippers. Five minutes later, without any surprises, Blake Griffin, who is considered to be far superior to other rookies, was successfully selected as the draft pick for the new year.

The stingy big boy, wearing a hat belonging to the Clippers, walked quickly to the stage with anticipation. His shoulders already bear the hope of reviving a team.

"The 2009 NBA second-round pick belongs to the Minnesota Timberwolves. They have 5 minutes to consider."

Because of Gasol's trouble, the Grizzlies' signing eventually turned into the 9th overall pick, and the second-place pick belongs to the Minnesota.

At this time, Tang Tian also focused on the small TV. He has no idea what will happen to history here.

Judging by the pre-draft market and the Timberwolves configuration, it is entirely possible to choose Harden or Evans.

Five minutes later, Stern walked out of the background again, holding the envelope with the result in his hand.

"The Timberwolves chose Hashem Thabbit, a 21-foot-2 center from Tanzania."

When Stern uttered the final result, Tang Tian gave a stun and then smiled unconsciously.

Changed the team, but the position of Thabeet has not changed, it seems that the executives of the league still prefer big men.

Subsequent draft picks and previous life did not fluctuate much.

The third-ranked Thunder chose James Harden.

The fourth-ranked king chose Tyreke Evans.

The fifth pick is still the Timberwolves. They chose Golden Boy Rubio this time, which is the same as in previous lives.

The sixth pick belongs to the Golden State Warriors, one pick higher than the previous life, but their choice is the same as the previous life, choosing Stephen Curry.

The seventh pick belongs to the New York Knicks. They chose the magical defender Jonny Flynn from Syracuse University, who led the team in the NCAA to fight 6 overtime to beat the top NCAA leader in the UConn. He averaged 17.4 points, 2.9 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 1.4 steals.

For New Yorkers, having experienced failures in Francis and Marbury, they need another guard to hold the sky.

In the eighth overall pick, the Toronto Raptors chose DeMar DeRozan from the University of Southern California, whose model is exactly Tracy McGrady.

"The ninth pick in the 2009 NBA Draft belongs to the Houston Rockets. They have 5 minutes to think about."

When the draft came here, Tang Tian's heart showed some fluctuations.

The 9th pick, this is the Rockets ushering in a high-draft pick once again since Guy.

Because of Gasol's troubles, Morey's wishful thinking was not achieved, but it was indeed a high-scoring position.

But this signing is a bit awkward.

The cornerstone players are almost picked in the first eight picks, and even if they open their eyes, there are not many people who can choose at this time.

If Tang Tian is still on the Rockets, he will definitely use the No. 9 pick to make a deal with the Timberwolves at all costs.

The Timberwolves have two first-round picks, the Rockets have more chips, and the probability of a deal is very high. Harden will be there.

Yao Ming + Artest + McGrady + Harden + Billups lineup, there are veterans, peak players, immediate combat power, and the cornerstone of the future, the other teams simply do not play.

But all this is no longer possible because of Morey and Alexander.

After a while, Stern came out of the draft backstage, and Tang Tian also looked curiously at this time ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ I don't know what the Rockets will choose at this time.

"In the first round of the NBA in 2009, the Houston Rockets chose Jordan Hill. The 2.08 power forward came from the University of Arizona."

Morey is still Morey. Although Artest renewed some problems, he did not choose the small forward blindly, but believed his data and made the most secure choice.

Jordan Hill is a junior in this year's NCAA. He is the first player in the University of Arizona to average double-digit points (18.3 points) and rebounds (11.0 rebounds) in nearly 30 years. He can also contribute up to 1.7 blocks per game.

If Artest loses, he will be a good addition on the team's defensive end.

Tang Tian couldn't help laughing after watching it.

This choice is honestly no problem, but Morey may be wrong this time. In Hill's words, because of the rough technology in the previous life, he was only a very ordinary role player in the end, and he couldn't get at the cornerstone.
