"Who do you think this year's No. 1 pick will be?"

On the evening of the 26th, Zeller, who was watching the draft together in Zhou Si's big villa, asked.

Zhou Si glanced at him angrily. In order to enjoy the world between him and Ye Qin, he deliberately did not go to Brooklyn. Who knew that a group of bad friends came directly to find him.

Last year was a big year for the draft, and this year's draft was average. But Zhou Si knew that although there were no cornerstone players for the championship this year, there were still many good pieces to win the championship.

"All-round center" Towns, "low-post offensive beast" Okafor, "CBA supernova guard" Mudiay, "super combo guard" Russell, "European weirdo" Porzingis, "Optimus Prime"

Cauley Stein…

But when it comes to the No. 1 pick, Zhou Si can't guess because the Celtics hold the No. 1 pick this year.

As the butterfly effect gets bigger and bigger, not only has the team's draft order changed, but Zhou Si has never seen the names of many players.

The future will inevitably be even more chaotic.

"Towns or Okafor."

Oladipo cheered.

"After all, the management prefers big men, and the Celtics don't have cornerstone players inside."

Zhou Si nodded, Oladipo's analysis was reasonable and well-founded.

When NBA President Xiao Hua stepped onto the main stage, he was still booed like he was last year.

But Xiao Hua doesn't take it seriously, as long as you are happy.

After a simple opening and speech, the audition officially began!

"In 2015, the player selected by the Boston Celtics with the first pick in the first round was... Okafor from Duke University."

Okafor put on a Celtics hat and took the stage with a happy face.

The Celtics are a wealthy club, Boston is also a big city, and the team is clearly on the rise, so the new season is off to a promising start.

"It's really an insider..."

Oladipo said with an expression of "I just said it was so great."

With the second pick, one of the favorites for this year's No. 1 pick, Mudiay, the former No. 1 high school student in the United States, was selected by the Jazz. After undergoing my socialist transformation, Mudiay will partner with Wiggins, who has unlimited potential!

With the third pick, the Bucks selected Towns. He has solid skills and is versatile, and is called "the perfect center in the small ball era" by the media!

Moreover, Towns has both immediate combat ability and potential, and the Bucks management has obviously found a treasure.

Antetokounmpo, Jabari Parker and Towns, Zhou Si knows that given time, the Bucks will definitely become a powerhouse in the Eastern Conference.

With the fourth pick, the Mavericks selected Kristaps Porzingis, and the veteran player has a successor.

With the fifth pick, the Pistons selected Russell, the favorite for the No. 1 pick.

Through the close-up shot, it is obvious that Russell is a little unhappy, and this selection is obviously a bit different from his heart!

With the sixth pick, the Heat selected Towns' teammate, Willie Cauley-Stein!

…

The Nuggets selected Devin Booker with the 13th overall pick. With the 13th overall pick, you deserve it.

…

"The 30th pick in the first round of the 2015 NBA belongs to the Portland Trail Blazers, and they have five minutes to consider it."

"Hey, Zhou, we're on your team."

"Who is your team going to pick?"

Zhou Si shook his head, he really didn't know this time.

In fact, Zhou Si doesn't care very much. It's just a substitute anyway. If he really cared, he would definitely fly to New York to welcome this new teammate.

"With the 30th pick in the first round of the 2015 NBA, the Portland Trail Blazers selected Josh Richardson!"

Looking at the excited black guy who came on stage to shake Xiao Hua's hand, Zhou Si looked up Josh Richardson's information.

"Selected to the Southeastern Conference All-Defensive First Team and All-Defensive Team in the 2014-15 season."

Seems to be a good defensive back.

This was Zhou Si's first feeling.

"Well, I only participated in the draft in my senior year, so it doesn't look like my potential is very high!"

This is Zhou Si's second judgment.

Zhou Si threw the found information aside.

It's okay if you focus on defense, so you only need to find another three-pointer at the second position.

Because the 60th overall pick in the second round was traded by the Trail Blazers for cash, the draft for the Trail Blazers has ended early.

It's not that the Blazers' management is stingy, but rather than searching for treasure, it's better to save a spot and choose a strong player to sit on the bench.

This year the Trail Blazers won the championship. Although it is more difficult to renew players' contracts, they are also more attractive to veterans. They don't have to worry about not having strong veterans to invest.

Although Zhou Si did not pay too much attention to Josh Richardson, as the leader of the team, he still had to do some face-saving work.

After sending a message to welcome the rookie, Zhou Si also asked for Richardson's contact information from General Manager Orsi.

"Hello, I'm Zhou Si, welcome to join the Trail Blazers family.

I'm training in Portland right now, you can come with me if you want."

Richardson was immediately overjoyed after receiving the news from Zhou Si!

Zhou Si is his idol!

…

The next day, looking at the black guy outside the villa, Zhou Si had to sigh:

This guy is too honest.

However, Zhou Si did not dissipate the young man's enthusiasm. After renting a house for him, he took him to join the "Demon Training Camp".

For this black guy, in addition to polishing his defense, Zhou Si also asked him to practice open three-pointers and catch-and-shoot three-pointers.

If you want to be successful in the Trail Blazers, you must have three-pointers!

…

After the draft is over, the free agent market is coming.

While Zhou Si was practicing hard at Ganba, he was enjoying his two-person world with Ye Qin.

Some things are hard to find, and now he understands why those bad friends like to go to nightclubs so much.

The happiness there is truly indescribable to outsiders.

In the past two days, rumors have been rife in the media!

Everyone knows that next year's contracts are about to explode, so there aren't many big fish in the free market this year.

There are only four players in the first gear: James, Love, Aldridge and Marc Gasol;

James has announced that he will exercise the player option to opt out of his contract, but according to reports, he will definitely renew his contract with the Cavaliers.

Love directly exercised his player option, so that he will play for another year with the Warriors and sign a big contract when his contract expires next summer.

Therefore, the only targets that other teams are chasing are Ade and Marc Gasol. Considering that these two people have basically left the team, the main rhythm of this summer is obviously the calm before the storm!

There are more players in the second round than in the first round, but most of them are rookies in 11 years - restricted free agents, and the home team can match any offer.

Klay Thompson, Leonard, and Jimmy Butler's rookie contracts all expire this summer.

However, it is said that they tend to stay on the team.

In addition to them, there are also many second-tier stars left: Dragic, DeAndre Jordan, Ellis, Brook Lopez, Thaddeus Young, Gay, Rondo.

There are even more players in the third gear.

Obviously, it is unlikely that a new super team will emerge this year. The alliance, which is about to be destroyed, can finally take a break!
Chapter completed!
