For the Laker.
They wanted Chu Han to wear the purple and gold number 7 jersey next season, which was obviously impossible.
First of all, they didn't have a first-round draw.
Secondly, they had no bargaining chips.
This was a common topic.
The NBA overdrafted their future and focused all their attention on Dwight Howard.
However, the truth was.
The Warcraft team did not promise to renew the contract with the Los Angeles team.
The big gamble of the Los Angeles Clippers was undoubtedly a failure.
They were still some distance away from the playoffs.
In the final stages of the game, they had to play a high win rate to ensure that they could catch the last bus in the playoffs.
Even if they made it to the playoffs, they would still be a team in the bottom half.
They faced a strong team in the upper half of the Western Conference.
Judging from the current lineup of the Los Angeles Clippers, it might be the end of a one-round trip.
If the gamble failed, the future would be lost.
The future of the Laker was already dark.
They were different from a team like the Los Angeles Clippers, which had no draft picks and no bargaining chips.
The last few teams in the league were doing their best to defeat them.
The fans also focused their attention on the showdown between the New Orlean Hornets and the Phoenix Suns.
These two teams were currently ranked first and second from the bottom in the Western Conference.
Their battle records were also the first and second from the bottom in the entire Alliance.
The two of them were clearly the most popular teams for the first draft pick this season.
So, when a wasp meets the sun.
That would be the ultimate battle of placing cards.
When the other teams in the league met, no one wanted to lose.
The Hornets VS the Suns. No one wanted to win!
In the end, the competition for the Oscar winner was won by the Hornets reluctantly.
"This is a pretty good victory…"
During the post-match interview.
Monty Williams, the coach of the New Orlean Hornets, had an ugly expression.
The key was that he did not want to win, but he won the game. He had to say something about how happy he was after the game.
Who could withstand this?
The most ridiculous thing was:
There were also reporters who wanted to make Coach Monty Williams smile.
After all, this was a live broadcast.
The Wasps commander glared at the other party.
Why?
Do I still have to laugh after winning this match?
In stark contrast to the Hornets 'manager, who felt as if he had swallowed a piece of sh * t, was the Suns' manager, Lin Qi Hunt.
"This is a great match!"
Lin Qi Hunter was just short of stripping and partying in front of the camera."Although we lost the game, our players showed 120% attention on the pitch.”
"We should pay more attention to things other than winning and losing.”
"Sometimes, losing is more worthy of our pride than winning!”
The post-match interview between the Hornets and the Suns became a classic clip that was repeatedly broadcasted on the US Internet.
Especially Lin Qi Hunter's sentence:
"This is a great match!"
This sentence directly reached the top of the trending list on Twitter.
ESPM also used this sentence as the headline on the front page of today's news.
At the end of every season.
Other than the battles between the teams in the playoffs.
The competition for the top pick of the last teams was also a good show.
Everyone wanted to be the final winner.
But who would be the real winner?
Was it really their individual record that determined the fate of each team?
Obviously, not all of them.
NBA Headquarters.
In the CEO's office.
David Stern looked at the results of each team.
In the end, among the last teams in the Eastern and Western Regions, these were the few teams that were circled.
Eastern Conference: Orlando Magic, Orlando Cavaliers, Charlotte Bobcats.
Western Conference: Phoenix Suns, New Orlean Hornets, Sacramento Kings.
They were currently in the bottom three of the Eastern and Western Regions.
He was also a strong contender for the top scorer.
There was no doubt that Mr. CEO of the NBA was planning who the top pick would belong to.
The NBA announced that the draft picks were fair and open.
The management of the Alliance was 100% not involved.
But even a fool knew.
The NBA's management definitely had a secret operation when it came to the draft pick.
For example, now.
Chu Han, a super rookie who had been in the top 13 for 13 years, had locked in the top spot in advance.
Whoever could get the first pick might decide the league's structure for the next 10 years!
David Stern had no choice but to intervene with a rookie of this level.
After hesitating for a moment.
David Stern removed Charlotte from the list.
Chu Han was the long-awaited top scorer of China, and the first top scorer in NBA history.
How could such a popular superstar be given to Ke Village?
Oakland doesn't deserve a name.
As for Charlotte.
Stern felt that the football market there was too cold.
He couldn't waste the huge commercial value contained in Chu Han.
Actually, Stern didn't want Chu Han to go to Orlando either.
Magic's management was really brainless. Even if they gave him Chu Han, he probably wouldn't be able to use him well.
However, he had to give the Eastern Conference team some face.
Which of these four teams would be the lucky one?
This was what the NBA executives were going to decide in the next meeting.
While the NBA teams were fighting for the playoffs and the draft picks, they were also playing games.
The top 16 of the NCAA Tournament began.
Wichita State University, the super dark horse, continued its dark horse nature.
They had overthrown the favorite to win the championship, Gonzaga, in the top 16 and became the first team to enter the top eight.
" This is the NCAA!"
Once again, he overturned the favorite to win the championship and displayed his dark horse position to the fullest.
Wichita State's commander, Gregg Marshall, was extremely excited.""From now on, any team must face us squarely.”
"Any team can be defeated by us!”
On the other side.
The other favorites, Michelle and Syracuse University, also successfully advanced to the quarter-finals.
In the face of absolute strength.
A dark horse?
It didn't exist!
Then, the No. 1 seed, UCLA, finally welcomed their opponent in the top 16.
They were going to play against the University of Louisville, a top four team, in the Neutral Arena!
"We won't make the same mistake as Duke.”
In the pre-match interview segment.
The one interviewed by the media was Louisville's manager, Rick Pitino.
This was the disciple of the legendary NBA coach, Cardinal Auerbach.
He had also been the manager of the Celtics.
It was just that his set of tactical ideas did not work well in the NBA.
On the contrary, Pitino was doing well in the NCAA.
Facing the camera, the bishop's student was full of confidence.""We have our own tactics. We can take care of UCLA.”
