The Godfather of Basketball

Chapter 742 2017 NBA Draft (1/4!)

The lottery will be completed before the finals, and these lottery positions will be finalized.

The Nuggets' pick is No. 13. This pick was traded to the Jazz by the Nuggets in the previous life, and now it belongs to the Nets.

The Nets' own pick is No. 28.

The Spurs' pick was No. 29.

The four second-round picks are No. 34 (formerly signed by the 76ers), No. 45 (originally signed by the Heat), 48 (originally signed by the Bucks), and 60 (originally signed by the Nets).

Although there are many draft picks, the value is actually not too high.

And because the team only has Deron and David West whose contracts expire this summer, even if they choose not to implement Justin Hamilton's contract, the Nets have only 3 places on the roster.

It is foreseeable that the Nets' trading moves in the draft will not be small.

The day before the start of the draft, Tang Tian had asked Jones to trade as many draft picks as possible. He hoped to get the top ten or even the top three picks.

The Nets now hold a lot of assets and get a lot of offers.

Devin Booker, Jokic, Gordon, Tucker, and Jefferson Jr. are all high-quality assets.

Take Jefferson Jr. as an example. The Cavaliers began to covet last year, and this season's offers are also one after another.

There is also Devin Booker. After playing a good enough season, his value has risen. If the picks of this year's draft are used to correspond, he is worth a top five or even a top three pick.

Undercurrents surged before the draft.

The 2017 draft will still be held at the Barclays Center.

There are still many New York fans at the scene.

The team lost the championship last year, coupled with various trade rumors before the conference, they hope that the team can make big moves in this year's draft conference.

Tang Tian took Jones and Frank to the conference site.

"Tang, can you sell us a draft pick? You have a lot of draft picks this year." In the passage outside the hut, Tang Tian met Cole, who was proud and said with a smile.

"If there is a chance." Tang Tian didn't say much to Cole.

"Okay, then I wish you can draft a superstar-level player." Cole finished with a smile, then turned and walked to his draft hut.

"Look at his smug look." Frank was a little upset after hearing this.

The Nets are short of superstars now, and Cole still said that, which sounds very harsh.

"Let's go." Tang Tian didn't care. He accidentally killed the Warriors last year. It's normal for Cole to feel resentful.

When walking towards the hut, Tang Tian met many old acquaintances. Casey was still the head coach of the Raptors, and Walton also became the head coach of the Lakers this season. Even Stevens, who was rumored to resign , and is still in the position of coach of the Thunder.

As soon as he sat down at the cabin, Jones received more offers than before.

The 76ers hope to trade Booker and this year's No. 13 pick with the No. 1 pick.

The Lakers hope to trade Jokic with the second pick.

The Celtics intend to trade Jokic and Jefferson Jr. with the No. 3 pick.

The Bulls hope to trade Booker with the No. 7 pick.

The Cavaliers hope to trade Gordon and Jefferson Jr. with Love.

...

Tang Tian listened one by one, but it didn't move him too much.

He wanted the top three picks before because he wanted to pick Jayson Tatum. This small forward has the best combat power and potential among the rookies in this class. He has the potential to become the next Paul Pierce or Kobe. Wy Leonard.

The 76ers' offer is reasonable, but if you have to pay Booker and the No. 13 pick, the price is a bit too high.

As for the Lakers and Celtics, they all came thinking of robbery.

The Nets are constantly receiving offers, and their deals with other teams are also constantly negotiating.

Jones was the busiest man in the cabin.

Fortunately, the Nets had many trading partners in the trading market in the past, and their quotations were not bad. Before the start of the draft, all the deals they wanted were reached one after another.

The 28th pick plus the 34th pick was changed from the Eagles to the 19th pick.

The No. 29 pick plus the No. 60 pick was exchanged for the No. 26 pick from the Blazers.

In this way, it means that the original lottery positions have been integrated and become lottery No. 13, lottery 19, lottery 26, lottery 45 and lottery 48.

This time, Tang Tian could basically win all the players he wanted.

"The Cavaliers have changed the bargaining chip. They are willing to offer...Kyrie Irving."

After the negotiation was completed, just as Tang Tian was preparing for the draft, Jones' words surprised him.

Cavaliers willing to play Irving?

Just for a little Jefferson?

"But the chips they're asking for are Butler and Jefferson Jr."

Love becomes Irving, Gordon becomes Butler.

Tang Tian asked Jones to refuse without thinking much.

Although Irving is good, Butler is too important to the Nets. With Butler, he can still compete with the Warriors' striker. Without Butler, it is really necessary to rely on Jr. Jefferson to top the game.

But this trading day reminded him of something.

The conflict between Irving and the Cavaliers in the previous life seems to be in this season?

Think about it, since the Cavaliers formed the Big Three, they have lost to the Warriors once, and then they have been blocked by the Nets for two consecutive years. If this delay continues, James may really pat his ass and leave. You must know the latter Signed with the Cavaliers has always been a short contract.

After rejecting the Cavaliers' trade proposal, the 2017 NBA Draft began soon.

The No. 1 pick originally belonged to the Celtics, but the 76ers had a special liking for the guard after completing the trial training for Fultz. Because they were afraid that the Lakers would cut off, they made a deal with Kyle before the draft. The special team reached a deal, sending out the No. 3 pick and the first round of 2019, and directly switched to the No. 1 pick.

Xiao Hua walked to the front desk, announced the transaction, and announced that the first pick belonged to the 76ers.

Five minutes of waiting time, but in fact, everyone knows who the 76ers will choose.

Five minutes later, Xiao Hua appeared at the front desk again.

"The first pick in the first round of the NBA in 2017, the Philadelphia 76ers selected Markelle Fultz, a 1.93-meter point guard from the University of Washington."

Fultz had been prepared for a long time, picked up the 76ers cap that had been prepared in his hand, hugged and kissed his relatives beside him after putting it on, and then walked briskly onto the stage.

Being able to be selected as the No. 1 pick in the draft year is already an honor in itself.

Tang Tian felt a little helpless when he saw this.

The 76ers, this is another set by Angie.

In fact, if there is no trade, the Celtics will not choose Fultz, which is tantamount to picking up a first round for nothing.

This is also the reason why Tang Tian doesn't make deals with Anji or Morey. Although he is a time traveler, shrewd people and shrewd people always can't agree.
