Chapter 124 "Proud" Thompson

Five minutes later, Stern came out from behind the stage again.

This time it's the Pistons fans' turn to look forward to it. Since the disbandment of the "Five Tigers", they have been sinking for a long time. Now that they have finally won the second pick, they naturally hope to choose a cornerstone for the team.

The suspense of the No. 1 pick is not much, but there are more choices for the No. 2 pick.

Derrick Williams, Monroe, Kanter, even Tristan Thompson, Walker are potential candidates.

"The second pick in the first round of the NBA in 2011, the Pistons selected Greg Monroe, a 2.11-meter center, from Georgetown University."

Hearing the final result announced by Stern, Tang Tian nodded, which made sense.

Monroe stayed for an extra year, and he really deserved the pick.

The Jazz with the third overall pick selected Kanter as the No. 3 pick.

The Timberwolves took Derrick Williams with the fourth overall pick.

Williams' expression was very ugly. He was originally the No. 1 pick, and even the top two candidates in the major prediction lists, but he did not expect to fall to fourth.

But this is the uncertainty of the draft. Both the Pistons and the Jazz want to choose a big man, and Williams does not meet their requirements.

The Cavaliers selected Tristan Thompson with the fifth overall pick. Thompson finally earned himself a rocket-like promotion through his excellent performance in training.

"A deal happened, and the Charlotte Bobcats have the sixth pick." Just when the draft was at the sixth pick, Stern's first words changed from before.

The first trade of this year's draft was born.

On the large scrolling screen in the background, the details of the transaction were displayed.

The Charlotte Bobcats traded their starting point guard DJ Augustin, this year's No. 9 pick, to the Raptors for the No. 6 pick and Jarrett Jack.

Augustin averaged 14.4 points and 6.1 assists per game as a junior last season, and he has grown up. The Bobcats use him to trade the No. 6 pick at this time, which is obviously going to pick a point guard.

Walker, Knight, and Fredette are the most likely candidates to be selected.

"The sixth pick in the first round of the NBA in 2011, the Charlotte Bobcats selected Kemba Walker, a 1.85-meter point guard from the University of Connecticut."

Walker breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his name called.

The sixth pick is actually not bad, especially except for the Cavaliers, the other four teams are all big men. He was selected at this pick, and he can be regarded as the second best point guard after Irving this year. Ball back again.

Walker stood up and was the first to hug Calhoun, followed by his parents, and other relatives and friends, who took the Bobcats hats handed over by the staff.

Walker deliberately glanced in the direction where Tang Tian was sitting before taking the stage, and winked at him.

Tang Tian smiled when he saw Walker's eyes.

It seems that after watching UConn's previous game against North Carolina, Mr. Joe valued Walker a lot. This was because he was afraid of being cut off by other teams. He would rather trade Augustine and choose Walker.

However, this may also have something to do with Walker's performance in the trial training. Procopio's guidance still allowed Walker to make a lot of progress.

When Walker took the stage for a group photo, he revealed the red jacket he was wearing underneath, which drew cheers from the audience.

When he stepped off the stage, he pointed at Tang Tian's jacket and winked.

Tang Tian also smiled and revealed his red jacket.

The two of them are matching signs.

After Walker stepped down, he went to the media room for an interview under the guidance of the staff.

The Wizards with the seventh pick selected Brandon Knight and traded him to the Pistons for Ed Davis (the seventh pick in 2010, averaging 9.7 points and 6.7 rebounds in his rookie season), Austin Daye and a future second-round pick.

When the eighth pick came, a big three-party deal appeared on the scene, and it was also related to the Bobcats.

The Bucks sent Corey Maggette, John Salmons and this year's No. 10 pick for Benno Udrih, Stephen Jackson, Sean Livingston and the Bobcats' No. 19 pick.

The Kings sent Benno Udri and the No. 8 pick to get John Salmons and this year's No. 10 pick.

The Bobcats sent Stephen Jackson and Sean Livingston and the No. 19 pick to get Corey Maggette and the No. 8 pick.

The Bobcats selected Bismack Biyombo with the eighth pick, a 2.06-meter power forward from Congo.

With the ninth overall pick, the Raptors selected Valanciunas from Europe.

The Kings selected Jimmer Fredette with the 10th overall pick.

There are only fourteen picks in the lottery show, and at this point in the draft, there are only the last four lottery spots left.

In the small green room, there are still 7 people sitting, that is to say, at least three of them will fall out of the lottery.

It's a cruel thing. Rashad Lewis was there at the time. He knew that he was selected by the team in the second round. He must have collapsed at the end of the sitting.

"With the 11th pick in the first round of the NBA in 2011, the Golden State Warriors selected Klay Thompson, a 2.01-meter shooting guard from Washington State University."

Thompson sat in the small green room for a long time. When he got up, he took a long breath, smiled and hugged his relatives and friends, and then took the Warriors hat from the staff and went on stage.

Thompson was selected, and Tang Tian was the only one left among the three hard-working brothers during the offseason.

The draft on stage is still going on.

At this time, Fagan had already returned, and it seemed that Walker had finished accepting media interviews.

"Kemba went chatting with Michael (Jordan)." Fagan came over and sat down next to Tang Tian, ​​and then said.

Tang Tian nodded.

Walker can be selected with the sixth overall pick, and Fegan must have played a big role in it.

At this moment, his cell phone vibrated, and he took it out to see that it was from Thompson.

"I won this time, and I am waiting for your good news."

There is not much content, and it can be seen from Thompson's words that he is still a little proud.

That's right, he has been abused by Tang Tian every day for the past two months, but he has a higher draft pick than Tang Tian, ​​so he naturally wants to be "complacent".

"Soon." Tang Tian put away the phone after replying to the message.

By this time the lottery picks were almost done.

The Rockets used their No. 14 pick to take Marcus Morris, the remaining brother of the Morris brothers.

The lottery show ends here.

The lottery show is actually a dividing line. Before this, all the rookies went to the lottery team of last season, and they will get a lot of opportunities, but the outside of the lottery are all playoff teams, and they want to play. Time can only depend on strength.

Except for the lottery, the selection of each team is relatively random, which is quite different from the previous prediction list of the media.

The draft has come to the 25th pick without knowing it, and this is the time for the Nets to choose.

"Tang, where is Tang?" At this stage, the four members in the commentary booth were tired of chatting, and Kenny Smith suddenly said.

After the fight between UConn and Duke, Smith was very optimistic about Tang Tian, ​​and now he finally remembered him.

Thank you for loving yogurt 1. Dede get the rewards.
