Chapter 433 Don't Step Up When Playing Balls (Adding Changes to the Blue Splash)
In the auditorium, Brother Antetokounmpo stood up with a dazed face, and a hundred thousand reasons in his heart howled like a strong wind.

"Raptors fellow Ujiri said he wanted to draft me, Hawks coach Budenholzer said he wanted to draft me, Bucks general manager John Hammond also said he wanted to draft me, but the Kings chose me, I was so popular ?Why wasn't I invited into the Little Green Room?"

"Seventh overall, I thought it would be the second round!"

While thinking about it, Antetokounmpo took the King's ball cap handed over by the staff, put it on the top of his head, strode up to the stage, excitedly held Stern's hand, smiled and forgot to look at the camera to take pictures, and asked Stern En reminded twice in a row.

Laughter erupted throughout the Barclays Center, and a Lakers fan shouted from the sidelines: "This guy looks so stupid!"

Many fans nearby laughed.

ESPN analysis desk, the draft expert Chatford is a little frustrated, mainly the first seven picks, which are very different from his previous predictions. First, the Cavaliers did not choose Noel, and then the Bobcats did not choose Alex Len. As a result, the Suns did not choose Ben McLemore, the Pelicans did not choose Trey Burke, and the Kings unexpectedly chose Antetokounmpo, who should be the 17th pick in his opinion.

Slightly cheering up, Chatford said: "Giannis Antetokounmpo is from Greece. His physical condition and technical characteristics are somewhat similar to Kevin Durant. He can handle the ball and shoot three-pointers, and he has an amazing wingspan." , but it will take a long time for him to become a qualified NBA player, this should be the decision of Kings boss Su Yang, he likes Durant too much..."

"That's an exaggeration..."

Bill Simmons rushed to say: "This young man named Giannis Antetokounmpo is indeed in excellent static physical condition, but he comes from the Greek second-tier league, which is even behind the Chinese CBA. In that league, I think that after Su Yang became the boss, his behavior was no longer under control, and he became like Michael Jordan, who likes to take risks and gamble for luck..."

Jaylen Rose went on to say: "I actually think that is the right choice. There are obviously no talented players this year. With Su Yang's character of pursuing the ultimate championship, he is definitely not willing to choose a player who can see the upper limit. If this A player named Giannis Antetokounmpo can reach 80% of Kevin Durant, Su Yang's choice is the best in this draft!"

"Don't be funny!"

Bill Simmons laughed: "Compared with Kevin Durant, this Giannis is at least one LeBron James!"

Everyone laughed after hearing the words, and LeBron, who failed to win the championship, can laugh at will, which is no different from before in the Cavaliers.

On the draft stage, Brother Antetokounmpo finished taking a group photo and walked off the stage in a daze. Su Yang and Battier could be seen from afar.

"Am I strong? The boss came to greet me in person?"

Brother Antetokounmpo couldn't help speeding up, took three steps and took two steps to stand in front of Su Yang, and raised his hand salute.

"Hi boss!"

Su Yang thought how this was different from the Brother Antetokounmpo he knew before, and then he waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and then said: "I came here to welcome you, because I want to give you a piece of advice, that is, don't step on your feet when playing, and you must learn to defend whether you want to or not. Mr. Teal..."

"I remember!" Antetokounmpo nodded sincerely, wondering why he would not step on his feet, anyway, just do it.

Su Yang raised his hand and patted Brother Antetokounmpo on the shoulder to encourage him. He felt that he didn't have much muscle, and said: "Take advantage of the off-season to gain muscle and weight quickly. I will equip you with a professional trainer and accept an interview with Mr. Battier. It's my phone number..."

Handing Brother Antetokounmpo a business card, Su Yang turned away from the draft venue and returned to the King's Operations Office.

Hinkie was also leisurely eating ice cream and watching the live broadcast of the draft. Seeing Su Yang enter the door, he said with a smile: "The negotiation with the Nuggets is going very smoothly. The transaction has been reported to the league and will be approved soon. The price we paid was the 36th pick this year and $80 in cash, but I asked the league and the Nuggets not to announce it for the time being to make sure there is no problem."

"very good."

Su Yang nodded in agreement. If it was revealed in advance, others might guess that the Kings would have a potential target at the end of the first round, causing other teams to compete. Choose Gobert, that blood loss.

"Try to hold a press conference for Giannis the day after tomorrow, invite as many media as possible, and then equip him with a full-time trainer. We need to increase his growth rate, try to help him win the best rookie, and establish a strong mentality... "

Su Yang is very confident in the cultivation of Antetokounmpo.

In his previous life, Antetokounmpo was in the Bucks. He met mediocre coach Larry Drew in his first year as a rookie. He did not get the most efficient training. He averaged 24.7 minutes per game, 5.4 shots, and 6.8 points. In the second year, he was under Kidd , Directly averaging 12.7 points per game.

For now, Antetokounmpo can directly start from the point guard instead of small forward in the first year, shooting guard in the second year, point guard in the third year, and even power forward. Reach Superstar status before rookie contract ends.

Spend more money and energy to cultivate stable earning without losing money.

"I've already made arrangements, don't worry..." Xinji briefly explained the itinerary for the next few days, and the plan was very detailed.

The draft will continue at the same time. The Pistons choose Pope, the Timberwolves choose Trey Burke...the 76ers choose Michael Carter-Williams...the Mavericks choose Olynyk, and then exchange the Celtics for the 18th pick, and next year's two A second-round pick.

In a blink of an eye, the 21st pick was reached. The Jazz chose Gorgui Dieng from the University of Louisville and announced a deal with the Timberwolves. The goal is to exchange for Trey Burke. Compared with the Kings, the specific conditions earn the Timberwolves a second round .

"Okay, reject us for a second round..."

Su Yang was a little speechless, but other Sirs also pursued the maximization of interests, there was nothing wrong with it, each was his master.

Between sighs, the draft progressed to the 25th pick, the Knicks chose Tim Hardaway Jr., Spike Lee and the Knicks fans rejoiced, and the four ESPN analysts blew it up, thinking that it was a missed choice, absolutely Will earn double.

The league subsequently announced that the Nuggets and the Kings had reached an exchange of the No. 27 pick, and the four ESPN guests hurriedly guessed the candidate.

Su Yangjue left the combat office, chatted all the way to the draft site, just in time to see the Timberwolves choose Andre Robertson, and then traded it to the Warriors according to the agreement, and the Warriors immediately handed it over to the Thunder, which made the fans quite confused.

After standing and waiting for a while, Stern came out again with a small card, stood in front of the podium, and announced with a smile.

"The No.2013 seventh pick in the 20 NBA Draft, the Sacramento Kings selected Rudy Gobert, from France..."

There were exclamations again in the arena, but it was obviously much smaller than before. After all, the impact of the 27th pick is far less than that of the 7th pick.

Gobert took a photo with Stern on the stage, stepped off the stage in a hurry, stood in front of Su Yang, and nodded nervously to say hello.

Su Yang said with a smile: "In the summer league, I want to see you become the rebounding leader in Las Vegas, find a low screen to catch the ball, and practice turning and hooking. As for gaining weight, take your time and focus on training your thigh muscles. , supporting your huge upper body..."

After nagging, Su Yang left the scene of the draft again, and hurried back to the King's Operations Office, ready to contact the undrafted.

Hinkie said with a smile: "The Jazz called just now, hoping to talk to us about the Gobert deal. How do you ask for a price?"

"Let them trade Gordon Hayward, or next year's first-round pick. If they don't want to, they will ask for more money next time..."

Su Yang asked the price at random, knowing that the Jazz would definitely not agree, and instead asked his assistant to contact Robert Covington, emphasizing that he originally wanted to be selected in the second round, but there was a temporary change and he couldn't make it, and he would go to Covington in person later for details. Chat, hope to give a chance.

The Jazz's sudden change of mind was indeed unexpected, otherwise the 36th pick would not need to be traded to the Nuggets, but could be used to select Covington.

Now we must express our importance in advance, so as not to wait until Covington is completely defeated in the second round and have to compete with the Rockets Morey.

And it’s worth talking about in person. After all, in the first year of Covington’s rookie life, he had no chance in the Rockets. He averaged 4.9 minutes per game and only 2.3 points. In the second year, he got a chance with the 76ers. points, really strong.

 Asking for tickets, brothers, this week is about to recommend, and I have been naked for two weeks.
