Chapter 51 The draft is coming, the time to witness history has arrived!

With the return of the Chicago Bulls, the 1995-1996 NBA season has come to an end.

The next thing everyone has to face is the recruitment and planning for the new season.

As the champion Chicago Bulls, they can be as wild as they want and celebrate like crazy.

Because they are the most successful team this season, they are the champions!

But for other players, especially those teams that are still struggling in the playoffs, it is a critical period for their rise.

How to plan in the offseason and how to get the players you want through trades have become everyone's biggest concern.

The luckiest team this year is the Philadelphia 76ers!

They got the No. 1 pick and had the capital to make the first pick in the draft. at the same time.

He also has the capital to negotiate with other teams!

The Celtics, whose leader is in red, got the No. 6 pick, which was very embarrassing for the Celtics.

Their goal from the beginning was Lin Yan or Allen Iverson.

But it is almost impossible to get two people in this position.

But the red leader is obviously unwilling to surrender and is eager to persuade the Philadelphia 76ers to complete the transaction through operation! but.

While communicating with Philadelphia, their targets are also set on the Vancouver Grizzlies and Toronto Raptors with the second and third picks!

The Philadelphia 76ers announced that what they lack most is guards, especially point guards.

This is very consistent with the goal of the red leader.

In this case, Auerbach had to make a choice.

Between Lin Yan and Iverson, he had to choose one to give to the 76ers. after careful consideration.

The Celtics' negotiation goal with the Philadelphia 76ers is that they hope the Philadelphia 76ers can choose Allen Iverson.

At that time, the Celtics are willing to use the player selected with the No. 6 pick, as well as any current Celtics player, as bargaining chips to trade with the Philadelphia 76ers.

As long as Philadelphia is willing to send Iverson away!

Subsequently.

The Celtics negotiated with the Toronto Raptors, who held the second overall pick, and the Vancouver Grizzlies, who held the third overall pick.

As teams that have just joined the league, the Raptors and Grizzlies have a simple goal, which is to gain a foothold in the league.

As for competing for the championship or reaching the playoffs, they are not issues they will consider in the short term.

Based on this.

In this era where those with insiders win the world, they set their sights on insiders.

When the time comes, the person chosen will most likely be an inside player.

Auerbach captured the psychology of the Raptors and Grizzlies and expressed the sincerity of the Celtics to both teams.

They hope that either the Raptors or the Grizzlies will select Lin Yan in the first three picks.

The fourth-ranked Bucks and fifth-ranked Timberwolves also target defenders.

In this case, the Celtics can at least guarantee to get a high-quality insider with the No. 6 pick.

By the time.

The Celtics are willing to use the available inside players, plus any player from the Celtics' current lineup, to trade Lin Yan!

No matter who makes this deal between the Raptors and Grizzlies, they will get a star player for free without disrupting the team's construction. have to say.

The red-clothed leader killed three birds with one stone, which was amazing.

What he longed for most was Lin Yan, but he deliberately showed in front of the 76ers that he was more optimistic about Iverson.

In this way, the 76ers will definitely increase their emphasis on Iverson.

This way.

Lin Yan's draft pick will be postponed.

The Grizzlies and Raptors are both hungry for inside players.

In addition, the subsequent Bucks and Timberwolves do not have much demand for inside players. Naturally, the leader in red will have the opportunity to operate! but.

Man proposes, God disposes!

The plan is there, but whether it will come true in the end depends on the draft!

It's not just the Celtics who want to gain something in this draft.

The Los Angeles Lakers, also a traditional giant, also hope to use this draft to obtain the cornerstone of reconstruction.

Compared with the Celtics, the Purple and Gold are more difficult to operate.

After all, the draft picks they have this year have fallen out of the lottery, and they only have the 24th pick in the first round.

It is simply unrealistic to get the player you want at this pick.

Based on this situation.

There is only one choice they can make.

That’s the deal!

By trading up the picks, or letting the team that owns the picks choose the players they like and then trade them!

Jerry West put a lot of thought into this matter.

Those who can survive in the NBA are veterans.

You can imagine how difficult it is to take advantage of them.

Their primary target is also the 76ers with the No. 1 pick!

West hopes the 76ers can take Allen Iverson in the first round.

The Lakers are then willing to trade any two players plus their own draft picks.

When there is not enough draft chips, Logo Man can only trade based on the existing basis. but.

Like the Cardinal, he never thought the Philadelphia 76ers would agree.

His main target is also the Raptors and Grizzlies that will follow.

These two teams are both teams that have just joined the league.

In terms of experience and influence, there is no way to compare with established teams like the Lakers and Celtics.

If you choose to discuss it with them, to put it bluntly, you are picking on the weak!

Logo men also target their need for insiders.

But what he gave was Lakers star center Divac.

In the words of Jerry West.

The risks involved in developing a player are still very high.

Whether it's the Raptors or the Grizzlies, they have a huge thirst for inside players.

If they choose a rookie insider who has no injuries and can fulfill his talent, that will naturally be the best result.

But if injuries occur and talents are not realized, it is equivalent to a direct waste of a draft opportunity.

Rather than doing such an uncertain thing, it would be better to use the center that the Lakers have already trained.

In the past season, Divac averaged 16 points, 10.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 2.2 blocks per game.

The performance is very impressive.

How to choose between such an All-Star player and a rookie who is uncertain about his future potential? I believe they can have the answer! and.

Jerry West also gave his strings attached.

The Lakers' draft pick that year, and the Lakers' draft pick in 1998!

What these two teams want is the future, and the draft pick means the future!

The logo man is also discussing with the two teams according to his own plan, and his ultimate goal is also Lin Yan!

Except for two people.

Managers of other teams are also looking for opportunities in every possible way.

Try to get the players you want in the draft.

This time, almost everyone's first target was Lin Yan.

But everyone was very cunning enough to bypass the Philadelphia 76ers.

After all, what they lack most now is a point guard!

Once they choose Lin Yan, many teams' plans will be in vain!

In the New York Knicks president's office, Patrick Ewing went directly to team owner James Dolan

"If you want New York to win the championship, trade Lin!"

………………

Transactions and discussions before the draft are ultimately uncertain.

Before the draft happens, everything is subject to change.

Who will be the No. 1 pick and which team Lin Yan will join? Everything will be answered on the day of the draft!

On June 28th, United States time, the NBA draft for the 1996-1997 season arrived as scheduled.

The moment to witness history is here!
