All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball

Although because I participated in the draft a year early, the stars of the 2005 rookies were dimmed a lot.

But in terms of overall quality, the 2005 draft was full of surprises.

With the 29th pick in the first round, the Dallas Mavericks selected David Lee, who came from the University of Florida. If he didn't play well in the NBA, he would have to go home and inherit a billionaire family fortune.

In Su Feng's original time and space, Li was originally a treasure found by Knicks.

At the peak of his career, Lee was named to the All-Star reserve team twice.

Nicknamed the "Double-Double Machine", his offensive skills are quite gorgeous and he can attack with both hands.

During the tryout with the Mavericks, Lee attracted the attention of the Mavericks front office by virtue of his performance in beating Nowitzki in 1V1.

But then again...

In the NBA...

Beating up the little driver in a V-1 doesn't seem to be something worth showing off.

Previously, when discussing the selection with Riley, Su Feng had also considered recommending David Lee.

But after understanding Riley's thoughts on the Heat's lineup in the summer, Manager Su finally chose to give up David Lee.

Because the Heat's priority for contract extension in the summer will be Haslem, they will definitely not have the salary space to complete a contract extension with Alston by then.

In addition, Payton will be one year older next year, so at the point guard position, what the Heat urgently need now is a new ball-handling tool.

David Lee has good offensive ability, but considering his growth period and the fact that on the defensive end it is difficult for him to provide other contributions to the team besides rebounding...

In Su Feng's view, it is a wise choice for the Heat to use the team's only mid-level exception to renew Haslem's contract this summer.

In the NBA, building a roster is like building a computer.

No matter how powerful your AU is, it must be equipped with AMD's exclusive A-board.

In Su Feng's previous life, when reading basketball articles, he could often see some writers who didn't know much about basketball muddle-headedly selecting a bunch of star players into a team.

But judging from Su Feng's own actual experience...

Even if you are given five All-Stars, when you launch an offense, won't you only have one basketball on the court?

If a basketball game only depends on the number of stars you have, then how did the U.S. men's basketball team lose in the 2006 World Championships after their defeat in Athens?

Therefore, although the selection of David Lee can indeed bring the Miami Heat back to the peak of the "good-looking traffic team", but because he is not very compatible with this Heat...

Therefore, after some careful consideration, Su Feng gave up the "F4" set composed of him, David Lee, Korver, and Ginobili on the Heat field when entering the second quarter next season. "line-up.

"This is not training my teammates, this is simply torturing myself!"

Thinking that the Heat would be full of defensive black holes inside and outside the field, Su Feng couldn't help but feel nostalgic for the time when he and Ben took a bath together.

With the 30th pick in the first round, the Heat selected high school player Lou Williams, who skipped college directly.

Because before the start of this year's draft, the NBA has officially announced that starting next year, high school players must be one year after graduation before they can participate in the draft.

Therefore, in the 2005 draft, many talented high school students with poor grades chose to skip college.

For example, Bynum was previously selected by the Cavaliers.

At the time of his candidacy, he was still four months away from turning 18.

And compared to players who have had one or two years of college experience...

Except for a few high school players, you definitely can't count on them in terms of immediate combat ability.

But what a coincidence...

In Su Feng's eyes, Lu Wei is that rare player who dares to throw it at you as long as you dare to give him a chance.

In Su Feng's previous life, because Iverson was still at his peak after being selected by the digital player, Lu Wei did not play a lot of playing time in the first two seasons.

But starting from the 2007/08 season, after getting enough playing time, this thin young man proved his value.

In Su Feng's view, it doesn't matter that Lu Wei is inexperienced and can't adapt to the intensity of NBA competition for a while.

As long as he can get the ball across half court with his gorgeous dribbling hands.

And if he can strengthen his three-point ability in the summer...

At that time, why do the Heat need bicycles?

But now the problem comes again.

That is......

Since David Lee can hardly contribute anything other than rebounding on defense...

Could it be that Lu Wei can make other contributions to defense besides missing people?

So, either, if you don’t understand football, don’t look at the choice of Manager Su and Riley with a questioning eye?

As we all know, on the basketball court, missing people inside and missing people outside are completely different concepts.

Admittedly, given Lu Wei’s small body...

Even when he was at his peak, as long as you were an NBA player and had the skills, you could beat him.

However, as long as he can follow his defender like Korver in normal times, even if he is broken through, Su Feng and the Heat's strong inside players can help him defend and fill the position immediately.

But......

If such a vulnerability occurs on the internal lines...

That was like the Mavericks in this year's Finals.

No matter how well they hide Nowitzki, Su Feng can always take advantage of the loopholes in the Mavericks' interior defense to find breakthrough opportunities.

In the NBA, there has always been a saying that offense depends on the outside and defense depends on the inside.

Because generally speaking, as long as your inside line is not strong enough, your team's defense cannot be good.

Just like the Bulls, who are better than having Jordan and Pippen, they have to keep Rodman to achieve success.

New York, Madison Square Garden scene.

When Lou Williams took the stage as the last rookie in the first round to receive Stern's blessing, tears of excitement slid down his face.

"This...this is really incredible!

For me, who grew up watching the Soviet competition...

I...I...I really can't believe that I'm going to be teammates with him soon! "

Lu Wei, who was wearing a Heat hat, was so excited that he was incoherent.

And offstage...

When he saw that the Heat finally chose this peer who did not perform as well as him in the trial, Monta Ellis suddenly felt like an arrow had been shot in his chest.

In fact, in addition to Lou Williams, during this year's playoffs, the Heat also tried out another talented high school student, Monta Ellis.

Judging from the trial results of the two at that time, the members of the Heat's coaching staff were more inclined to choose Ellis.

Because Ellis not only has a better model than Lu Wei, but his current completion level is also higher than Lu Wei.

But after talking to these two people, Riley chose Lu Wei without even thinking about it.

Because in Riley's view, although these two young defenders have considerable arrogance and drive.

But compared with the catfish effect momentum of Lou Williams that will be a positive help to the team...

Riley always felt that Ellis's aggressive and excessive character would become a big trouble in the future.

In Su Feng's previous life, if you only looked at peak statistics and performance, it would be difficult to tell who was stronger, Ellis or Lu Wei.

But before Su Feng traveled through time and was reborn, why was Lu Wei still earning an annual salary of tens of millions, but Ellis had no ball to play with?

As the saying goes, environment affects growth.

Character determines destiny.

Therefore, after Ellis said the words "Even Sue, I am confident that I can defeat him in one V one" during the conversation with Riley...

The Heat and him...

Destined to miss.

Because as the helmsman of the Heat, Riley knows very well that when a team attacks a dynasty, any internal conflicts that may arise are likely to shake the foundation of this dynasty team.

The scene returns to New York.

After Lu Wei stammered about his journey as Fengmi, he felt that he was old at this moment.

because......

The hot boy back then who grew up watching Jordan play...

Now, you have become the senior that others grew up watching you play.

And as long as I think about the future in my mind, more and more juniors will jump on the technical stage and shout "I will defeat you, senior Su Feng"...

Su Feng had the urge to slap himself twice.

Damn it, Su Feng!

You said you were not good at what you did back then. Why do you have to give such a bad head to these juniors?

In New York, after the first round of the 2005 draft, the Heat added money to trade up their draft pick before the start of the second round.

Considering that the Heat have two veterans who have to play healthy basketball from time to time, Riley knows that in this year's draft, the Heat will have to select a reliable inside substitute.

Among the remaining draft pools in the 2005 draft, the best post player is none other than Marcin Gortat, nicknamed the "Polish Hammer."

But with Gortat still having three years left on his contract with his European parent team...

Therefore, teams that are unsure whether he will land in the NBA after his contract with his parent team expires are afraid to bet on him.

In Su Feng's previous life, Gortat was selected with the 27th pick in the second round for this reason.

It's not as written in many marketing accounts. NBA scouts are all blind, which has just caused the pearl to be covered in dust.

no way.

Because the NBA has very strict restrictions on buying out the contracts of European players and their home teams, even if Su Feng was greedy for Gortat's solid muscles, he would not suggest Riley choose Gortat.

After all, "Huabei C" like my sister-in-law who dares to spend her own money to buy out her contract with her European parent team is only a minority in the NBA.

And as far as Gortat’s current annual salary is in the millions...

How can he dare to bet that after he uses "Huabei" to buy out his contract with his European parent team, he will definitely make a lot of money in the NBA to pay back the "Huabei" he owes?

Therefore, when he learned that Riley planned to trade up the draft pick and select Amir Johnson, Su Feng discovered...

Riley is indeed the most worry-free head coach and general manager he has ever worked with.

In Su Feng's original time and space, as one of the dusty pearls in the second round of the 2005 class, Johnson's tireless running and jumping on the court were an important guarantee for his survival in the NBA.

As a qualified blue-collar tool man, in 2017, he even received a contract extension worth tens of millions offered to him by the digital people at that time.

Next season, because Su Feng will devote more of his energy to personal offense, high-quality tool players like Johnson are indispensable in Riley's eyes.

Originally, Su Feng had tried to advise Riley to choose Turiaf in this choice.

But considering Riley's stingy attributes are similar to those of Arsenal coach Wenger next door...

Su Feng finally gave up this idea.

And from the perspective of the price-performance ratio of tools, Johnson just doesn't have the personality of Turiaf.

If you only look at the role on the field, then Johnson is definitely more suitable for this Heat than Turiaf.

In Su Feng's previous life, as a second-round pick selected by the Lakers in 2005, Turiaf had a very touching story with the Lakers.

Shortly after being drafted by the Lakers, Turiaf was diagnosed with a heart disease. Therefore, considering that Turiaf, who was still a second-round pick at the time, had no money for treatment, the Lakers paid a corresponding fee for Turiaf. the cost of surgery.

You know, according to the corresponding regulations of the NBA...

The Lakers could not have paid for Turiaf's surgery at that time.

but......

As the most popular team in NBA history...

If you want to ask what the Lakers mean to the Lakers...

The most loyal Lakers honey will definitely tell you that it is precisely because of these little things that make the Lakers become the Lakers in people's minds.

In Su Feng's original time and space, many people didn't understand why the Lakers had such a fatal attraction for superstars.

And some young fans who watch the game late even think that it is because of Kobe that the Lakers became successful.

But little do they know...

Compared to the other 29 teams in the NBA.

The Lakers have done too many things in history that attracted fans.

For example, Jim Bass is often hacked to the point where he has no underwear left, and he himself has a bit of cerebral palsy.

After Buss passed away, if Jim Buss, who was under the pressure of a "three-year agreement" with his sister, had not wanted to fulfill Kobe's wish and give him the most perfect retirement ceremony, how could he have lost that bet? ?

You know, just based on the relationship between Buss Jr., Kupchak, and the LOGO man...

As long as he wants...

The other two people can completely rebuild a competitive Lakers for him in a short period of time.

Therefore, when Aunt Jenny successfully recruits Lao Zhanzhan in the future...

Just when everyone is thinking that Aunt Jenny is the savior of the Lakers...

If history repeats itself and Bass Jr. is still in office, then judging from Bass Jr.’s almost brain-dead Comet attributes...

Try to think about it. In the Lakers' subsequent rebuilding process, will the Lakers choose Tatum based on Kobe's suggestion?

In addition, Kobe believed that the Lakers should give Ingram more opportunities to help him complete his leveling...

And there is a high probability that LOGO Man will return to the Lakers to assist Buss Jr. after leaving the Warriors...

Is it possible that Leonard will be hired to the Lakers by Buss Jr.?

Then comes the problem.

May I ask about the lineup of Leonard + Ingram + Tatum...

Is it really worse than Lao Zhanzhan + AD?

Perhaps, judging from short-term achievements, by choosing the following lineup, the Lakers will have a greater probability of winning the championship in the short term.

but......

What about the future?

Of course, history is history.

That's precisely because history has no assumptions. UU read www.uukanｓshu.net

As Su Feng remembers, shortly after the Heat selected Amir Johnson, the Lakers also used their seventh pick in the second round to select Ronny Turiaf.

At this time, Su Feng, who discovered that there was another pearl in the draft pool, also made an urgent call to Riley.

"Pat...can we buy another pick?"

"sure."

“Then buy one and use it to choose Aysen Ilyasova from Turkey.

My teammates from the national team have played against him before at the World Youth Championship.

I've seen his game tape and he has great potential. "
