Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 351 Cut Hu and Cut Hu
"You can't put your eggs in one basket."

The old Curry repeated again: "You can't put all your eggs in one basket."

"I know...but New York..."

"Listen, if the Hornets don't pick you at No. 6, the New York Knicks with the No. 8 pick is your best bet."

Curry thought about it, although what Dad said was correct, there was still a warrior in the middle holding the No. 7 pick.And...the Warriors seem to have wanted to sign him very early.

In order not to be selected by the Warriors, Curry's team even rejected the Warriors' request for a trial.Currently, Curry has only tried out with the Hornets and the New York Knicks.

As a fresh rookie, Curry has been exposed to the NBA earlier than many players, but in terms of social experience, he still chooses to accept his father's advice.

"But I have one more question."

"Ah."

"Will the Hornets give up on me at the last moment? But... didn't we agree before the trial training, and... Lian Feng likes me very much..."

Old Curry sighed: "Maybe Lian Feng really likes you, and the Hornets' tactical system is also very suitable for you. Even before this trial training, I thought you would definitely be able to enter the Hornets. But... because of that guy, your position is not so stable."

"Uh... you mean James Harden?"

"Yeah. Look, the way I'm thinking about it is that if James Harden gets drafted early on, there's no question the Hornets will take you, and George Sheehan will definitely do that. But...if the guys at the front pick something wrong and let James Harden go, then...it's hard to say whether the Hornets take you or Harden."

Curry said helplessly: "It's a terrible feeling that this fate is in the hands of others."

Old Curry patted his son on the shoulder: "Don't think so, listen, even in the New York Knicks, it may not be worse than the Hornets. Maybe...it is not easy to win a championship there, but there is a good chance to get a bigger contract."

"But..." Curry's eyes were burning: "I want a championship!"

……

Don Nelson doesn't care what other people think.

He has invented many epoch-making things so far, such as "ball-holding small forward", "shark-cutting tactics", "pull the big man to the outside to shoot three-pointers"...and so on. Whenever he invents a new tactic, the outside world will laugh at him as deviant, but the final facts prove that those are classics.

And this time, he fell in love with the kid from Davidson College, and he knew that guy would definitely become a superstar in the future!He wanted to draft the kid, even though a lot of people on the team were against it, and Curry Sr. even publicly said that they should not choose Curry.

Oh, but how is this possible.

He really liked that kid.

But now, it seems that they are not the only teams interested in Curry.

New York Knicks, um, big ball market.

And the Hornets.However, because people who know Curry and Harden's trial training with the Hornets have signed a non-disclosure agreement, the old Nelson thinks that the Hornets may do it, but if James Harden is not selected in the first few rounds, then the Hornets are likely to choose James Harden instead of Curry.

And will Harden be selected in the top five?
Ha ha……

In fact, it can probably be analyzed.

First of all, Griffin must be the No. [-] pick, there is no doubt about this.

Then the Los Angeles Clippers, holding the No. [-] pick, will definitely take Griffin.If they don't, they must be crazy.

Next, the Memphis Grizzlies, holding the second pick, should choose Hashim Thabeet because the team lacks an inside player.

Then there is the Kings with the No. [-] pick. It is said that they have been flirting with Tyreke Evans for a long time...Compared to Harden, Evans was once the No. [-] high school student in the United States, with excellent wingspan and lateral movement speed.

Then, before the Hornets, the only players who could sign Harden were the Timberwolves with 4 and 5 good signings.

For the vision of the Timberwolves head coach and the team management, the old Nelson has always sneered.Except for Garnett many years ago, they basically didn't pick better players.

Moreover, James Harden did not go to the Timberwolves for trial training, so from the eyes of the Timberwolves' blind management, James Harden may not be able to be selected.

Of course, not absolutely.

But in any case, as long as James Harden falls to the 6th pick, the Hornets will definitely pick James Harden, and then Curry will be theirs.

As for the New York Knicks, huh, huh, I want to fart.

……

Time flies and it's the day of the draft.

Curry sat a little closer to the front.Basically, his draft position can already be judged, so this position is convenient for him to get up and shake hands with David Stern for a photo.

"In the first round, the Los Angeles Clippers with the first pick selected Blake Griffin from the University of Oklahoma!"

White Warcraft stood up, put on the baseball cap symbolizing the Clippers, looked calm, stood on the stage calmly, and shook hands with David Stern.

Curry looked at Griffin in silence. That position is the dream of many rookies.But, make no mistake, it's only going to be for the most talented guy in the class.

Then, in a tense atmosphere, as Nelson Sr. expected, the Grizzlies selected Hashim Thabeet, while the Kings picked Evans with the No. [-] pick.

Ok……

Those players whose names were called naturally couldn't hide their inner excitement, and there were more players who had not been called by their names and waited silently.

Eyes full of longing.

Then came the time to make old Nelson nervous.

"Don't choose Harden!"

"Don't choose Harden!"

Old Nelson muttered in his heart.

As for Curry, he wasn't too worried.

After all, there are only a small number of people with discerning eyes.

Stern continued: "The Minnesota Timberwolves, who had the first round and the fourth pick, chose with the No. 4 pick... Ricky Rubio from Barcelona, ​​Spain!"

Old Nelson breathed a sigh of relief.However, there is one more sign.

"Don't choose Harden, don't choose Harden!"

Old Nelson began to pray again.

"Next, it's still the Timberwolves. They used the first round and the fifth pick to choose...Jonni Flynn from New York!"

Old Nelson jumped up excitedly.

So...the Hornets will definitely choose James Harden, there is no doubt about it.

Then, it was finally the turn of the Hornets.

Curry took a deep breath, and the thing he was most worried about happened. A player like James Harden was ignored in the first three rounds!It's incredible... Although James Harden's data did not perform very shockingly during the joint trial training, he felt that Harden's name did not appear in the top five is too outrageous.

Then, next, I have to compete with Harden for the 6th pick.

Subsequently, David Stern began to read about the Hornets' selection.

"The New Orleans Hornets, who have the sixth pick in the first round, choose... Stephen Curry from Davidson College!"
