Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 832 The 2011 NBA Draft
It was already the end of June at this time, and Qin Hao hadn't been able to relax at all since he returned to Philadelphia. The advertisement for the endorsement contract he signed before hadn't finished filming yet.

Later, because of the "Rising Stars Training Camp", Qin Hao couldn't spare time, so he suppressed two advertisements first.

Now Qin Hao is no novice in shooting commercials, so it's not a big problem, it just takes some time and energy, and Martin will handle trivial matters.

"Huh, it's almost over."

After the makeup artist removed Qin Hao's makeup, Qin Hao heaved a sigh of relief, finally feeling relieved.

The last commercial was filmed today, and Qin Hao will not sign a new endorsement contract for at least a few months, so he will not shoot another commercial either.

"Qin." Martin was right next to Qin Hao, and said with a troubled expression, "Although the filming of the commercial is over, there are other things to do."

"what?"

"The first is Anta's custom-made exclusive sneakers for you. The initial design has already come out. They will bring samples tomorrow and ask for your opinion." Martin said: "In addition, in addition to shooting commercials, you also have to participate in the endorsement agency. Some promotional activities arranged."

Qin Hao wants to cry but has no tears, so troublesome?
But since he signed the contract and took the money, he naturally had to do it right, he waved his hand to show his understanding, and suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Martin, I told you last time that you were asked to buy a house, did you buy it? "

Because Qin Hao signed several endorsement contracts, and Martin also got a lot of brokerage commission, buying a house should not be a big problem.

Martin smiled and said: "I bought it. After you told me before, I asked my wife to go to New York to look at the house, bought an apartment in New York, and paid the mortgage."

Qin Hao said with a smile: "After these contracts, your agent's commission is not too small, and the mortgage loan should be repaid directly."

"No." Martin smiled, a little embarrassed, "I don't plan to use the money to pay off the mortgage. I plan to buy another house in Los Angeles. I believe your vision. Since you said that you will never regret buying a house, it means that the price It will definitely go up. The money is used for mortgage loans, it is better to buy another set."

"666." Qin Hao gave a thumbs up.

He didn't tell Martin to let him speculate in real estate before, but he can be regarded as self-taught.

In fact, what Qin Hao didn't know was that the house that Martin bought in New York had already started to rise. He was a little superstitious about Qin Hao now, and he was simply worshiping him blindly.

Back home, Jiang Xue had already prepared dinner.

The table was full of Qin Hao's favorite dishes. Qin Hao ate to his heart's content. After eating, the two sat on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Today is June 6th, which is also the day of the 24 NBA Draft.

The draft was held at the Prudential Center Arena in Newark, New Jersey at 7 pm local time in the United States, and was broadcast live by ESPN to the United States.

At this time, the draft meeting is about to begin, and the live camera scans a group of players participating in the draft.

Qin Hao saw many acquaintances, such as Kyrie Irving, Tristan Thompson, Klay, Kemba Walker, Nikola Vucevic and others.

In addition to TT and Clay, Owen, Walker, Vucevic and Qin Hao all had intersections in NCAA.

There are also some that Qin Hao is familiar with them, but they are not familiar with Qin Hao, such as Enes Kanter, Jonas Valanciunas, Morris Brothers, Kawhi Leonard.
"I don't know if the results of the draft will be the same as I remember." Qin Hao paid attention to this draft mainly because of Clay.

Now that he and Clay have become friends, according to Qin Hao's past experience, he has a lot of contact with him, and those who are close to him are easily influenced by him, and are also easily affected by the "butterfly effect".

After returning to Philadelphia, Qin Hao approached the team's management, hoping that they could trade up the draft pick, get an 8-10 lottery pick, and use this pick to win Klay.

But the management didn't agree.

Now the 76ers have no shortage of guards. Iverson, Iguodala, Lu Wei, and Holiday have already piled up several. What are you doing with Clay?
What is missing is the inside line.

Moreover, the 76ers want immediate combat power more than a rookie who still needs to work hard and time to develop.

The 76ers lineup changed a lot last season, and they still made it to the playoffs in the end. This made the 76ers management excited. They want to add players who are ready to fight, and they can improve the team lineup when they come, which is very helpful. The team will perform better next season and go further in the playoffs.

What's more, it is not a simple matter to trade draft picks up. It depends on whether people are willing or not, and they have to pay a lot of money.

Qin Hao can only be regarded as a "future star" now, and his words can only be used as suggestions, and cannot determine the will of the management.

In the NBA, players are players, coaches are coaches, and management is management. There is a clear division of labor and each perform their duties. It is not a good thing to overstep their authority.If it weren't for the 76ers general manager Stefanski and Qin Hao's good relationship, knowing Qin Hao's personality, this matter might cause conflicts between Qin Hao and the management.

If this kind of thing gets out, it will not be good for Qin Hao's reputation.

In the end, that's all.

The team is unwilling to trade up the pick, and Qin Hao has no choice. Otherwise, even if he can't win Clay, he can win Xiaoka.

However, in Qin Hao’s memory of the top ten, the 76ers selected Nikola Vucevic with the 16th overall pick, which is not bad, but it’s a pity that they traded Vucevic away after only one season. .

Whether it is Clay, Kaka, or Vucevic, they are not the kind of players who are at their peak when they debut, which can be seen from their draft picks.

That said, they take time to grow.

But as the 76ers management considered, they need immediate combat power and players who can improve the team's strength as soon as they come. Even if they don't have one, they have to choose an insider.

so.
On the TV screen, the draft has officially started.

NBA commissioner David Stein steps onto the stage and begins the announcement.
There is no suspense about the first pick, and it has been locked almost before the draft. Kyrie Irving was selected by the Cavaliers with the first pick and won the title of No. [-] pick.

With the second pick, the Minnesota Timberwolves selected Derek Williams.

With the third pick, the Utah Jazz selected Enes Kanter.

With the fourth pick, the Cleveland Cavaliers selected Tristan Thompson.

fifth pick
In a blink of an eye, it has reached the tenth overall pick. In the end, the Charlotte Bobcats, who held the tenth overall pick, selected Kemba Walker.

These are the same as what Qin Hao remembered in his previous life, and there is no difference.

With the tenth overall pick, the Milwaukee Bucks selected Jimmer Fredette.

"The 11th pick is coming soon." Qin Hao stared at the TV screen. In his memory in his last life, Clay was selected by the Warriors with the 11th pick in the first round, and formed the "Splash Brothers" with Curry. .
