Chapter 46 The Knicks' Mess

New York Knicks headquarters.

General Manager's Office.

After a busy day, Isaiah Thomas finally felt that this stage of his work was almost complete.

After the summer league is over.The new season starts.

It will be able to verify the results of his operation during this period of time.

as a retired player.

Isaiah Thomas feels that his career is relatively perfect.

In the 1981 NBA draft, he was selected by the Detroit Pistons as the second overall pick in the first round.

In the rookie season, he was selected to the NBA All-Rookie First Team,

2 times to help the Pistons win the NBA championship,
Won the NBA Finals MVP in 1990,

12 times selected to the NBA All-Star team,
2-time NBA All-Star MVP,

Selected to the All-NBA First Team 3 times,
Selected to the All-NBA Second Team twice,
In 1985, he was also elected as the NBA assists leader.

How could such a professional resume not be called perfect?

But in his mind, his perfection is not over yet.

Because he has become the general manager of the New York Knicks this year.

He wants to write a more perfect chapter in this position.

But any perfection must have a foundation.

You have to have some good assets.

Can I write it down by myself?
But what did the previous general manager leave for him?
"Look at what an idiot Scott Layden has done to this team?"

For my ex.

Isaiah Thomas is angry with contempt.

In 1999, his owner, Dolan, hired Scott Layden as the team's general manager,
Raiden has done a few things since taking office

In the 99 draft, he skipped Artest and selected the injured French player Frederick Weiss,
After that, the problematic young man Sprewell renewed his contract with 5 million in 6190 years. When he was playing for the Warriors, he once made two gestures with the head coach.

In the 2000-01 season, he signed Kurt Thomas for 3 million in three years and sent away New York's totem Patrick Ewing.

Kurt Thomas?
The team's former power forward is now the starting center. (No way, no one is available, only top)
He is 2 meters tall and weighs 06 kilograms. He can average 104 points and 14 rebounds per game.

Such a thing can actually squeeze Ewing away?

Ewing, who is missing a leg, should be stronger than him, right?
In the summer of 2001, this guy gave Alan Houston another 6-year, [-] million contract.

Although Alan Houston was the league's CIC king at the time,

But it was an obvious premium contract, and no other team was willing to give Houston a contract in excess of $7500 million at the time.

But he!Yes, that man, the man named Raiden.

In the 2002 draft, this guy selected Nene, and then immediately sent the potential insider, Marcus Camby and Mark Jackson to the Denver Nuggets in exchange for McDyess, Frank Williams and a 2003 The second round of the year.

The exchanged McDyess ended up only playing 18 games for the Knicks due to frequent injuries.

This guy makes dirty tricks frequently, it only gives people a feeling,
New Yorkers are not short of money, in other words, people are stupid and rich.

There are so many high-quality stocks, but they end up being such a mess.

It is precisely because of this that the boss finally couldn't stand it and fired him directly.
Only then did he bring in this legendary player to serve as the general manager of the team.

But no matter how legendary he is.But it is only the legend in the identity of the player.

The team is now almost full of players with high salaries and low abilities.

What should he do?

Reluctantly, he can only start from the existing foundation,
First of all, he sent away the thorny Latril Sprewell, and then exchanged Keith Van Horn from the 76ers.This guy with a height of 208 is neither good nor bad....

After all, such a player is barely easy to use and easy to manage.

As for his big future, it is only in the making.

Then you can only start with this year's draft.

As we all know, this year is a rare draft year.

The Knicks, on the other hand, have three picks.

They are the 9th pick in the first round, the 1st and 10th picks in the second round.

In theory, these picks are not bad, if done properly.Still can pick a good rookie.

And the position target he mainly wants to choose is a strong big man inside.

Isn't it funny?

In the first two seasons, all the big men available on the team were sent out.

Now I need an inside line urgently.

And it can only be selected among rookies.

This cannot but be said to be a kind of sadness.

But what can be done?

Who made his ex an idiot.

Think back to the days before the draft when he was prepping.

"I don't know the three rookies I have selected now. Is it like Wilson's analysis?"

He had just come to the team.

Because I have to deal with that thorny transaction.

How can there be time to care about this year's draft market?

Thanks to the help of the team's veteran scout Wilson.

Only then did he get the information he wanted as quickly as possible.

And when asking the other party's opinion, the other party also gave a detailed answer.

"It's such a pity, if what we need is a striker, according to our pick, if we work hard, it is still very possible to win Carmelo Anthony.

I have talked with this No. [-] college student in the United States and his coach before, and he very much hopes to stay in the Big Apple. "

If Wang Xiaochun were here now, he would definitely know the Mr. Wilson in front of him.

That's the scout he thought was bullshit.

"Okay, don't talk about that, that's one of the candidates for the No. [-] pick. Don't say that we don't have any bargaining chips now. Even if we do, there may not be any team willing to trade with us.
Let me tell you about the insiders you are more optimistic about this year.

It seems that there are not many high-quality big men this year, and I need your opinion! "

"Okay, sir, happy to serve you."

Wilson should know what he is here for.

So it can be regarded as prepared.

He has a lot of rookie information in his hand.

"The most eye-catching inside rookies this year are undoubtedly Dakomilicic and Chris Bosh.

According to what you said before, it is impossible for us to get these two people...!
So our target should be on Chris Kaman.

But as far as I know, the Clippers seem to want him too, so we're at a disadvantage again.

Can only pick up the leak behind the Clippers... . "

"... man can we get to the point quickly, I think the guys in the lottery, I still know the big picture! I want to know who we're guaranteed to get?"

"Ok..., according to our first round pick, the most likely rookie to win should be Michael Sweetney or Nick Collison.

Michael Swetney, with a height of 2 meters and a weight of 03 kg, is a very strong guy who is not afraid of confrontation. He is competent in the third and fourth positions. His back technology is quite mature. He is a player who knows how to play with his brain.

If we get him, Keith Van Horn's defensive problems can be solved.After all, you also know that Keith Van Horn's offense is okay, but what about defense...!
And then there's Nick Collison.One of the twin stars of Kansas, as an inside player, he is relatively balanced in all aspects. After all, there is an old saying in China that there is no prestige under the prestige?
But I have my doubts about his confrontation.

I don't know if you have watched this year's NCAA National Finals.He was actually knocked out by his opponent's block... "

"I do know this. At that moment, it made the headlines of many local news! It seems that Kansas lost the chance to win the championship because of this!"

"Yes, many NCAA star students can be invincible when they are in college, but once they enter the NBA, they will disappear.
So I think it would be risky to pick Nick Collison!Of course this is just my personal opinion! "

"...Yes, I accept your opinion, then our No. 9 pick is Chris Kaman as the first choice, and Michael Sweetney as the backup!

The two picks in that round?Is there any suitable candidate?After all, Michael Sweetney can only reach the position of power forward at best, and what we lack most now is a center. "

"I also considered the No. 1 pick in the second round, recommending Kendrick Perkins, a former teammate of LeBron James.

Although this guy is only a high school student, his strength around the basket is not simple. He is 2 meters tall and weighs 08 kilograms, and his confrontation ability is quite strong.

But I was very worried that this guy would not fall to the second round, so I also selected a player,
That's the guy I mentioned earlier, the guy who fucked Nick Collison!
　Thanks to the book friend tail number 7845 for the reward!
