Bishop: since 1998

Chapter 4 98 Draft!

On the stage, Stern's face was unhurried, revealing the suspense of the final No. 1998 pick: "In the [-] NBA Draft, the first pick in the first round, the Los Angeles Clippers selected...

Center from Pacific University, Michael Olavokandi! "

There is one thing to say, this is an answer without suspense!

Clippers manager Elgin Baylor is so amazing and so good!

There are 10 answers in a multiple choice question, eight of which are wrong and only two are correct.

With his eyes closed, the Great Immortal Baylor was able to choose one of the two correct answers.

The property of poisonous milk is simply beyond the sky!
How could there be suspense in this choice?
To put it bluntly, this is a victory of human design!

To blame can only be blamed on Benzema... No, it is Olavokandi's draft promotion, which is really too confusing.

His character design copywriting is too successful and story-telling!

Like Olajuwon, his name also begins with Ola.

Like Olajuwon, he was born in the same country, Lagos, the capital of Nigeria.

Like Olajuwon, he also became a monk halfway. He didn't have a long time in basketball, but he got started quickly and achieved dazzling results.

In his junior year, in the Pacific Division, Olavokandi can be called the existence of the big devil, averaging 22.2 points, 11.2 rebounds and 2.88 blocks per game.

And Olajuwon...just read Olajuwon's ID number and forget it.

It was just a matter of putting a label of "Dream II" on Olavokandi's forehead.

How can this just rely on 'Baylor Lord' to ignore the difference between the two and only slander Olavokandi's body?
Olajuwon's body can be flexible or rigid, tall and tall, but he has guard-like skills. His shooting touch is soft, and he can be near or far. It can be called an all-round attack.

Olavokandi is a rough guy, he can only bully people with his body, his shooting feels stiff, and he will not attack when he is out of the paint area, which has become a display for emptying.

Amidst the exclamation, Olavokandi's face froze for a moment, and he immediately put on the Clippers cap in surprise, and stepped onto the main stage excitedly, feeling that his life had reached its peak! !
At this moment, he realized the powerful charm of the book "On the Personal Recreation of Human Design".

At this moment, he decided in his heart that he would use his whole life to fulfill a promise and create a character set that belonged to him.

When he retired, the moment he turned around, he could announce loudly to the world: "Actually, he's just a pitcher!"

People are designed to collapse.

"Parallel import champion" went to the main stage, embraced, communicated, shook hands, took photos with President Stern, and stepped down...

……

Immediately afterwards, the draft conference continued.

Stern folded the letter and read calmly, "In 1998, in the draft, the Vancouver Grizzlies chose..."

"Point guard from the University of Arizona, Mike Bibby!"

Amid the sounds of surprise and blessings, Bibby stood up, put on the Grizzlies cap, smiled and hugged relatives and friends, waved to the auditorium, and stepped onto the main stage.

In fact, he was a little upset in his heart!
You know, in his freshman year in 1997, he led the school to win the NCAA championship, averaging 19+7 per game.

Last time, he was the top three favorites in the NBA draft.

The limelight at that time was similar to that of Anthony in the Platinum Generation in 03.

Of course, the last No. [-] pick was the least suspenseful.

All the teams that are bad or trying to be bad are desperately losing without a bottom line, just to grab Tim Duncan, this cornerstone.

Losing to Duncan, he has to admit it!

In addition, the Celtics are advocating Bird II, Van Horn.

This is another stress!
So, it's really not avoidance, it's for academics, Bibby decided to fight the NCAA for another year before bringing his talent to the NBA.

This year, in order to live a better life for his girlfriend and family, he decided to participate in the selection meeting of this year's draft, bringing his talent into the NBA.

Unexpectedly, he dodged the stone Buddha Duncan, but he couldn't dodge the Great Dream II.

In the young year of the 98th draft, he still failed to be selected as the No. [-] pick, so how could he be convinced!
In all fairness, Bibby, nicknamed the "White Devil", is still capable.

The choice of the Grizzlies also has a conservative meaning.

Bibby's immediate combat prowess is impressive, but his future growth potential is still a bit lacklustre.

After all, the Grizzlies, who only entered the NBA in 95, can't afford to play too coquettish operations. They seek stability in everything and can't afford to lose!

Today next year, the Grizzlies are "wild-minded". Even though Francis clearly refuses to play for the team, they will still choose the next boss.

As a result, the game collapsed, and the team's attitude was not tough enough, and finally lost everything.

……

The draft continues.

Stern opened the third envelope and read: "The third pick in the first round, the Nuggets select..."

"Inside from the University of Kansas, River LaFrentz!"

LaFrentz, a tall white insider, has a good three-pointer and excellent shot-blocking ability.

It was a bit unexpected to be selected as the Tanhua Show.

Pierce fiddled with his suit and clenched his fists tightly.

In the evaluation of the media, he is the top three favorites in this draft, and the bottom line is the top five.

As a result, the No. [-] pick, No. [-] pick, and Tanhua were all gone.

Why is he still staying in the little green house?
Is it totally underrated?

Do not!
Not to underestimate.

The reason why Pierce was not selected is because the Nuggets are a team with a tradition of run-and-gun tactics and fall into paranoia.

Pierce, who has a kaleidoscope of offensive skills, seems to have no solution to the offense.

However, he has a flaw: he is not a fast guy.

It is said that the playing style is too slow, and the running is not fast, so how to play the running and bombing tactics?

Moreover, LaFrentz is very prestigious in the college league, he is the boss of Pierce, and his strength is not bad.

In addition, the head coach of the Nuggets has been replaced this season, and now the future generation of running and bombing master Mike D'Antoni is in charge.

At this time, D'Antoni, the master of running and bombing, looked unhappy.

His fancy is Mike Bibby.

His tactical style of play requires a super point guard to execute it in order to be able to play it.

Since he can't pick a potential super point guard, he can only choose a space-type insider to return to the Denver Nuggets, the kind who can shoot three-pointers.

……

"In 1998, in the draft, the fourth pick in the first round was chosen by the Raptors..."

"Forward from the University of North Carolina, Antawn Jamison!"

It was cut off in advance.

What the hell, who leaked the secret?
At this moment, the war room of the Warriors team was in chaos. The general manager was taken aback for a moment, and then shouted in his heart that there was an undercover agent.

Then, looking like he was waiting to be slaughtered, he hurriedly contacted the Raptors.

Therefore, there is the next choice, the fifth overall pick.

"In 1998, in the draft, the Warriors chose the fifth pick in the first round..."

"Outside line from UNC, Vince Carter!"

Subsequently, the Warriors used Vince Carter + $100 million to redeem Jamison from the Raptors.

With a smile on Vince Carter's face, he can finally fight side by side with his cousin McGrady and play brother basketball.

It's really exciting and fun.

Don't ask, the question is that McGrady's celestial lone star attribute is not so obvious.

In Carter's heart, there is no burden.

In this battle, the Raptors played a beautiful battle.

The small teams are not rich, and they can count other teams and get money, and when it is time to make a move, they will not be relentless.
