One month before the draft.

Lewis, as well as three other high school students of the same year, signed up for the pre-election. Among them, the two most optimistic were the 6-foot-10 center Lewis, and the second 6-foot-8 forward Al Harrington. It is predicted to be a lotto show, and Lewis is considered to have the potential to enter the top 10.

At that time, including Olovokandi, Bibby, Kansas doubles Pierce and La Frentz, North Carolina doubles Jamison and Carter were the first group players, in addition to the big tractor Trelle, center Doriak, double Nengwei Hughes is also considered to be a top 10 player, so Lewis can be considered to be in the top 10, which is equivalent to being considered by the draft network. Among all these proven college students (well, Olovokandi cannot be counted) In addition, Lewis is the most worth picking. However, as time progressed, Lewis gradually moved from the mysterious high school students to the foreground.

The closer you are to the front of the stage, the darker the light curtain will be. No matter how much you want to maintain mystery, scouts can always lift your veil unless you can single out the chair under the large crowd like Yi Jianlian.

Harrington quickly dropped from the lottery to the second round, and Lewis remained in the lottery because he is a Houston native and the Rockets have three first round picks, which is the key.

Everyone thought that Lewis was in the pockets of the Rockets, and he didn't expect such a change.

Lewis is about to go to the Pistons he least wants to go to.

His aversion to the Pistons was not as strong as it used to be, because the team where he put the pigeons saved him from that embarrassing situation.

29th was regarded as a shame by him, but this is not the fault of the Pistons. This is the fault of other teams. Those teams that have no eyes have missed him, and he has to find ways to prove himself.

He believes that this team of **** will sooner or later regret their decision.

Then, another unexpected thing happened.

Al Harrington, this high school student was supposed to be selected in the first round 25th, but did not know what happened. Now he is still in his original position. As the Pistons took Lewis, he fell. second round.

Then, the Mavericks picked a striker named Ansu Sasser.

Then the Lakers, they won Al Harrington in the second round of the second round!

Harrington's forecast for the week before the draft had dropped from the middle of the first round to the front of the second round.

The media still believes that the Rockets and Magic, which hold a total of six draft picks, will always take one of them to spend on him. Perhaps the implicit meaning is that they are not optimistic about Harrington’s potential, but just counting on the rich draft picks. Team is willing to gamble.

As a result, no, the Rockets missed him, and the Magic didn't want him.

So, the Lakers who had long been in love with him directly snatched him away.

"Looking at the maturity of these young people depends not only on athletic ability, but also on their understanding of the game, their self-control, and preparation for their career."

The godfather of the Lakers, logo male Jerry West, was interviewed every ten thousand miles, and he had a very high opinion of Harrington.

"Al is definitely able to integrate into our team. He is very talented. He looks very focused. As an 18-year-old, he is impressive and very good."

"High school students need a very suitable environment. For the fourth grade graduates, it is also a very difficult process to transfer to a career, so it is more difficult for high school students."

The narrators are discussing the reasons for this year's high school students' draft failure.

For Mo Mengchen, only one final result remains for this play at the draft.

Who will take Mobley? And, who will the Pistons choose in the last round of the last round with the tasteless taste of food?

Until this time, the Pistons still did not have an accurate answer.

Mo Mengchen is also thinking, who can this order choose?

Is there any remnant of Ginobili falling this year that no one noticed?

He kept thinking, many names flashed in his mind.

He must praise his memory because he really thought of a name.

"Henry, help me check my personal."

"Ho?"

"Brad Miller of Purdue University."

Mo Mengchen remembers clearly that Miller was a draft pick, but he wasn’t sure if Miller was a 1998 draft pick. He needed accurate information. Anyway, it’s still early and there is enough time for Haasman to take care of it.

In less than ten minutes, Hasman found Miller's information.

Like Encyclopedia, he feeds Miller's information to Mo Mengchen: "Yes, he is a freshman this year, just a senior, and he is a senior player who automatically participates in the election. He has comprehensive means and strong response capabilities, but his physical fitness There is a huge shortage, and scouts generally do not like him to survive in the NBA, so he can say that there is no draft market."

"very good."

Mo Mengchen smiled and called Dean Osgers.

"This is the Pistons Draft War Room."

"This is Mo, let Dean answer the phone."

Mo Mengchen said directly.

"The transaction has been completed. Do you have anything to add?" Osgoth thought that Mo Mengchen had come to ask about the progress of the transaction.

Mo Mengchen asked: "Last pick, did any of you choose?"

"Nick has a good candidate, because it is the last one, we don't have many choices." Osgers believes that even if Mo Mengchen is here, he can't provide any good candidates in this position. Desen gave a suggestion.

He didn't say that Adelson was okay. As soon as he talked about Adelson, Mo Mengchen remembered the game.

Mo Mengchen first said: "His advice has always been bad, why not listen to my advice?"

Osgers was very happy: "Speak, I am listening."

"Brad Miller of Purdue University, we need him!"

If Mo Mengchen just made a suggestion casually, Osgers might also consider this suggestion and the person offered by Aderson.

But he added "We need him", the meaning is different.

This is not a suggestion that one can hardly find someone to plug in. This is Mo Mengchen really want to get Miller.

Although Miller is destined to lose, Mo Mengchen hopes that Ming Media will marry him to the team and sign a formal rookie contract.

If it is like Big Ben to sign the draft, it is naturally very convenient, but like Big Ben, he is destined to rise. If he rises too fast and the team does not have room for renewal, it is a pity.

Regardless of whether the Pistons have room to renew Miller's contract in the future, get him first and sign a regular 2+2 contract, even if he can't keep it in the future, he can still enjoy the four-year rookie bonus.

Suddenly, Mo Mengchen felt that his thinking pattern became more and more like the team's general manager, not a player.

After that, the Bulls took Catino Mobley in fifth place in the second round.

No one knows what kind of surprise this Mobley will bring to the Bulls in the post-Jordan era, and no one will pin the hope of rebuilding the dynasty on this second-round show.

At this point, in the 1998 draft, Mo Menchen's all concerns were over.

Mo Mengchen turned off the TV.

Hasman asked: "Now you should always tell me, what will happen next?"

The day of the draft conference is also the day when NBA deals are the most intensive throughout the year.

Comparable to this is the trading deadline after the All-Star break.

However, in the draft conference, the teams have more chips and dare to take shots, because the season is over, how the cards in hand played in the last season, I have a lot in my heart, and I have decisive shots. For those rookies who have not yet inspected, If you are dissatisfied from the beginning, putting it on the shelf is also a matter of minutes.

"The Pistons will have two deals."

"Oh?" Hasman took it seriously.

Mo Mengchen said: "The first deal, we will trade Bobby Jackson to Houston, in exchange for this year's No. 18 show, Ricky Davis."

"Wait a minute, trade b-jax?" Hasman said in surprise, "You only have this one substitute, and the Pistons aren't short of forwards? Grant Hill, Don Reid, even you and Alan Houston can swing to the spot, why should he get Ricky Davis in exchange for Bobby Jackson with great room for improvement?"

Because we cannot open mandatory trading here.

Mo Mengchen also wants to exchange some marginal people for Ricky Davis, but the Rockets are not Kaishantang.

"Because he is valuable." Mo Mengchen said.

Hasman calmed down and asked, "Then? What is the content of the second transaction?"

"You drink some saliva first."

Hasman did the same.

Mo Mengchen said slowly: "We shot Theo Ratliff and Don Reid to get Rashid Wallace."

"Hat?"

"This is a three-party transaction."

"The Washington Wizards shot Chris Webb."

"Portland shot Rashid Wallace."

Hasman's mouth widens and widens: "So say"

"Yes, Portland got Chris Webber, Washington got Theo and Don, we got Rashid."

Hasman took a deep breath and said, "Can I publish this news?"

"This is what you should do." Mo Mengchen said.

So ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Before the official announcement, Hasman reported on the two transactions that the Pistons made on the day of the draft through "The Communicator."

As soon as the report came out, the topic suddenly culminated.

The Pistons' trade hurt the depth of their roster, but it also brought the team's talent to the extreme.

Fundamentally speaking, it is still those highly talented players who decide the game, the so-called depth, the more critical moment, the less useful.

As for Bobby Jackson in exchange for Ricky Davis, the outside view is that because the three-party deal involves Don Reid, Hill needs a replacement, so they switched back to Davis.

Despite losing Jackson, the Pistons still have the old Dumas to use. As soon as the deal is released, Dumas can basically determine the last year that the contract will be executed.

The wind was turning around, the Pistons made a good start for Draft Day, the first thunder detonated, the second thunder came faster and louder. Remember the site's website, www. biquxu. Com, easy to read next time, or enter "" on Baidu to enter this site
