Chapter 192 The Focus of the Draft - Los Angeles Clippers! [Third update! 】

There is a small green room at the draft site in Madison, which is an NBA practice. Every year, some popular rookies are invited into the "green room". The normal number is thirteen to 16 people. They will experience the entire draft process in the small green room. For the rookies waiting to be selected, it is undoubtedly a kind of affirmation, and even more an honor.At this time, in the small green room, there are sixteen players selected by the general managers of the [-] teams who are most likely to be selected for the lottery zone, Michael Beasley from Kansas State University and Derek Rose from the University of Memphis. Undoubtedly the best among them, tonight's No. [-] pick will be born between the two of them without accident.

The remaining fourteen are the talented guard OJ Mayo of the University of Southern California, Jerry Bayless of the University of Arizona, Kevin Love of the University of California, Los Angeles and his teammate Russell Westbrook, and Brook of Stanford University. Lopez and his twin brother Robin Lopez, DJ Augustin of the University of Texas, Brandon Rush of Kansas State University, Anthony Randolph of LSU, Eric Gordon of Indiana University, Andre Jordan from Texas A&M, Danilo Gallinari from Milan, Italy, Darrell Arthur from Kansas State University, and the last one is Joey Alexander from West Virginia University from China.

Sixteen young talents are waiting for their opportunity. When the white-haired David Stern stepped onto the stage and made a speech using a set of templates that he had used for decades, he also officially announced that the draft is about to begin. David Stern The draft rankings of 30 teams appeared on the big screen behind Tenn, and behind each team was a box that would show the names of the players selected by each team.

And the staff in each team's draft war room are actively preparing, like a war.

"John, are you sure you want to choose Derek?" Bulls coach Styles asked.

"Sure!" Paxson's tone was extremely firm, he lowered his head and quickly wrote something on the letter paper in his hand, and then handed it to the official NBA staff.

And the other locker room is the temporary war room of the Miami Heat. They are waiting for the Bulls to choose. The right Chicago Bulls chose..." David Stern drew his voice out on purpose.

Derrick Rose and Michael Beasley of the Little Green House both pricked up their ears and waited.

Pat Riley of the Heat stared closely at his letter paper, which was still blank at the moment, and they were waiting for the Bulls' choice. "Don't choose Michael, don't choose Michael!" All the staff of the Heat team prayed in their hearts.

David Stern slowly opened the envelope, with the same smile on his mouth, he slowly unfolded the letter, raised his head to the microphone, and stabilized, "It's Derek from the University of Memphis... Ross... ...! Congratulations to him!"

As David Stern's voice fell, Pat Riley smiled, and his assistant immediately wrote Michael Beasley's name on the letter paper happily. At this moment, they didn't feel that the draft lottery was depressed. Yes, because their goal was originally Beasley!
Derrick Rose jumped up excitedly, excitedly hugged his parents and agent, and then took the Chicago Bulls baseball cap.

But at this time, there were a lot of boos from the Chicagoans, "Why is that guard our first choice? We already have Kirk, so we don't need a guard!"

Sitting at the top of a long conference table, Neil Orshu was quietly listening to the hands-free voice from the phone in front of him. Inside was the scene of the New York Draft, and he was reading every 30 seconds for a total of 5 minutes.He already had his own plan, as long as there was nothing serious in the first few rounds, they would stick to their choice.

"Thank you to the great Bulls, thank them for giving me this opportunity, here I am in the NBA!" Rose finished his last speech and stepped down.

David Stern came on stage again, "The Miami Heat chose Michael Beasley from Kansas State University!" When David Stern announced their choice, the Heat let go of a big stone in their hearts. The big screen behind Stern began to replay Michael Beasley's college highlight video.

In the battle room of the Thunder team, they also quickly handed in their choices. This young army is still working hard.

Who will the Thunder choose?Talented guard OJ Mayo?Or UCLA's hot boy Russell Westbrook?
With the announcement of David Stern, this doubt was revealed, and they chose Westbrook.

Immediately after the fourth place, the Grizzlies chose the talented guard OJ Mayo. Unfortunately, Mayo had already said that he would not go to the icy Minnesota. The first transaction of the conference was born!

"Wow, the Timberwolves chose to trade!" Everyone couldn't help shouting.

The Timberwolves sent Mayo to Memphis and got the fifth pick of the Grizzlies, and the Timberwolves used the fifth pick to take Kevin Love away.

And the next few teams made their favorite choices. The Los Angeles Lakers used the Knicks' draft picks obtained by Lin Fei's three-way trade to select Italian handsome guy Gallinari, while Milwaukee was still the seventh pick. Bringing their favorite Chinese boy Joe Alexander back to the cold home, the New Jersey Nets with the eighth pick happily brought Brook Lopez back to New Jersey, the Charlotte Bobcats with the ninth pick need a point guard, Seeing that DJ Augustin has not yet selected the Bobcats, the general manager Jordan wrote Augustine's name cheerfully. The 11th pick Pacers picked Jerry Bayless, and the No. Sen Thompson, the Portland Trail Blazers with the No. 12 pick sent Brandon Rush to the Rose Garden. The Golden State Warriors with the No. 13 pick selected Anthony Randolph, and the Denver Nuggets with the No. 14 pick Eric Gordon.

At this time, Darrell Arthur and Andre Jordan in the little green house were all green, and there were only two of them left among the sixteen.

"It seems that we can choose a newcomer we are satisfied with!" Orshu's mouth was full of smiles.

"Yes, the Suns will definitely choose Robin Lopez, they don't want Stoudemire to be alone!" The assistant echoed with a smile.

"The Phoenix Suns chose... Robin Lopez from Stanford University!" As David Stern's voice fell, Orshu clenched his fists fiercely.

"We choose Roy Hibbert! I like this big man!" Olshu announced their choice on the phone.The general manager of the 76ers on the other end of the phone nodded and signaled his subordinates to write Roy Hibbert's name on the letter paper.

When David Stern just announced that the Philadelphia 76ers chose Roy Hibbert, the big screen behind David Stern immediately displayed a transaction message.

The Los Angeles Clippers sent Sean Livingston plus 300 million compensation cash for Roy Hibbert and Andre Miller!

"He's a fucking idiot. Andre is so much better than that glass man. Did the damn Philadelphian get his head kicked by a donkey?" Kupchak slapped the table fiercely. What he wants to see is the strength of the Clippers. The Clippers have already made him feel dangerous in the playoffs this season. Now he has traded Livingston for Andre Miller. As for the 300 million cash and Roy Hiber Te was directly ignored by Kupchak, not only Kupchak, but other uniforms in the Western League were scolding the 76ers uniform.

O'ershu lit a cigar and smiled leisurely, Chen Xiyan frowned slightly looking at the thoughtful Lin Fei.

The draft is still going on. The faces of Darrell Arthur and Andre Jordan in the small green room have turned from green to black. It was not until the No.20 seventh pick of the New Orleans Hornets that Darrell Arthur was selected. Let's go, and after expressing his speech with a black face, he walked off the stage angrily, and there was only Andre Jordan left in the small green room.

When the first round was over, Andre Jordan was still not selected. There is no doubt that he became the biggest joke in this draft.

"Okay, it's time for our performance!" Olshu snapped his fingers and called the general manager of the Timberwolves.

"My old friend, yes, now we can announce it, 100 million cash plus Paul Davis, yes, I hope we have the next cooperation!" Hanging up the phone with a smile, Orshu pointed to the assistant nodded.

The Clippers staff wrote a name on the letter paper.

"What? The Los Angeles Clippers bought the Timberwolves' second-round pick with the fourth pick?" Kupchak couldn't believe it when he heard the assistant's report.

"Mitch, yes! The Clippers bought the Timberwolves' draft pick!"

Jackson, the vice president of the NBA, was standing on the stage announcing the continuation of the second round of the draft, and Andre Jordan listened to Jackson's selection with a cold face.

First pick in the second round, Timberwolves: Nikola Pekovic Second pick in the second round, SuperSonics: Walter Sharp Third pick in the second round, Trail Blazers: Joey Dorsey and Joe Idosi was immediately exchanged for 200 million cash and sent to Houston.

Jordan has no confidence to listen to it anymore, because he has created the most shameful record in the small green house. In 2001, the general Arenas waited in the small green house until the first pick in the second round was selected by the Warriors. And it turns out that the front uniforms had problems with their eyes.

"The Los Angeles Clippers took Andre...Jordan out of Texas A&M with the fourth pick in the second round!"

"Andre, Los Angeles has chosen you!" Jordan's mother excitedly pushed her lost son.

"Los Angeles? The Lakers?" Andre Jordan, who was still feeling lost, looked at his mother and asked.

"Son, it's not the Lakers but the Los Angeles Clippers, the team with Super Lin!" Andre Jordan's mother hugged her son, hoping to comfort him.

"What, the Clippers bought the pick again?" Kupchak slapped the table hard again.

And the Clippers, who bought consecutive draft picks, undoubtedly became the focus of the 2008 NBA Draft, not only because of the consecutive shots, but also because the Clippers bought consecutive second-round picks. Are they so confident? ?This is a thought shared by all.
