On the 29th, the 2000 NBA Draft was held at the Target Center Arena in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The "Slam Dunk King" who was originally supposed to join the SuperSonics, 201cm tall small forward Desmond Mason, was selected by the 76ers. He had little chance to play and was about to sit on the bench under coach Larry Brown.
With rising star Vince Carter as the core, the Raptors, who were widely optimistic by the media, selected 201cm tall small forward Maurice Peterson, preparing to continue to form a swingman lineup.
This choice indicates that sixth man Tracy McGrady will definitely leave the team. Otherwise, the Raptors will have too many swingmen. Even if McGrady and Doug Christie do not renew their contracts, Artest will still be on the team.
.
In this draft, the Bulls stole the show. They hoarded a bunch of draft picks and selected six rookies, three in the first round and three in the second round.
The behavior of the Bulls management is simply awesome.
Manager Jerry Krause is like Tang Bohu who is eager to chase Qiuxiang. The boat he chose is famously fast.
Later, everyone the Bulls selected in 2000 proved to be "waste." Krause actually wanted to use one draft to rebuild the Bulls, and it was the best draft.
The only bright spot of the Bulls was the instant trade, which sent the No. 7 pick, white center Chris Mihm, to the Cavaliers in exchange for the No. 8 pick, Jamal Crawford. If not for this transaction, the Bulls would have created a super
What a joke, none of the six rookies in the same year can play.
Yang Jian did not watch the draft and has no interest in this draft class. It doesn't matter which team they join, they will not bring a big improvement to the team, and they will not threaten the SuperSonics.
Even if Michael Redd is a player, Yang Jian doesn't like him, and he has no interest in helping him win a championship ring. In his previous life, he had watched many Bucks games and felt that this guy indirectly ruined Yi Jianlian's career in the NBA.
In the parallel world, Reed has nothing to remember, except for that 10-for-14 shooting game. Reed played 20 minutes, and other than scoring, his other statistics are 0. This means that, except for scoring, I
He is unwilling to do anything and is a worthy "scorer".
Not long after, the Bucks welcomed the addition of Yi Jianlian. At that time, the Bucks' lineup was not bad, but it was a pity that Reid was addicted to shooting, leaving Yi Jianlian and Bogut, two high-ranking rookies, to watch from the sidelines.
Reid's shooting was still unstable, and Yi Jianlian was almost moldy in the paint. Reid was still keen on throwing shots and forging iron. In addition, the Bucks management at that time was already preparing for reconstruction, and Yi Jianlian became a victim and was sent away in just one season.

The SuperSonics won the playoffs and won the championship. If they keep their core lineup, they will be strong next season. Yang Jian doesn't have to worry about trades. In the summer, the team randomly selects a few players to fill up the lineup, and he will be confident to lead the team to defend the title.
As for recruiting free agents to join, Yang Jian has not thought about it at all. He is very satisfied with the team's current lineup. Players in the free market can come or go as they please.
Yang Jian had never recruited anyone before, even Charles Barkley came to him on his own. Moreover, Barker contacted him and Payton a year in advance and expressed his desire to join.
The player's data can only be used as a reference. Choosing those who fit the system is the key. Even those who have produced good statistics in other teams may not be able to perform well when joining the SuperSonics. Then some people will say that Yang Jian is a waste of his teammates.
The Hawks' cancer player, Isiah Leder, is this kind of player. Last season, he averaged 19.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game. Who would have thought that he was a waste just by looking at the data?
If he joins the SuperSonics, Leder will not even average 10 points per game. He will not have a lot of shots to score efficiently. If he is asked to play off the ball and be responsible for catching and shooting, he will not be able to do it well.
Yang Jian knows that the only more troublesome opponent next season is the Lakers.
If the Lakers can send away Glenn Rice and replace him with a power forward who is good at defense, like in a parallel world, they will be even stronger next season.
Yang Jian cannot stop the Lakers from reinforcing the Lakers, because the Lakers' total salary exceeds the salary cap. If they want to sign someone, it must be through a trade, or in the free market, they can sign players who are willing to reduce their salary to join.
Yang Jian stayed at home for a day on the 30th. In the early morning of July 1st, she couldn't wait to call up the system page to check the refresh status of the system mall.
Now there is nothing more attractive to him than the system mall. He wants to know if there will be any new black technology.
The result really is, the first one is.
Disguise glasses worth 2 points: As long as you wear these glasses, you can randomly disguise yourself and no one will recognize you.
Yang Jian had been able to recover from the sun before, but now that he saw this pair of glasses, he suddenly felt that he was a superhuman being.
Now I am only one girlfriend with a very perky nose between me and the "Heng Chao" of the DC movie universe. Superman's girlfriend Amy Adams had a particularly bad time in the early stage. It seems that I can find her to film a movie and give her a little help...
No, now it’s a matter of black technology glasses. Why did I think of it on a woman?
Yang Jian immediately bought the disguise glasses. This black technology was not only useful, but also very useful. Although he enjoyed becoming famous, as his fame grew, he had a lot of troubles.
Now he can hardly go out and attend official events with bodyguards.
It was impossible for him to date his girlfriends in crowded public places. He was often chased and intercepted when he went out, asking for autographs and photos, and some female gangsters wanted to snatch him home and give birth to his baby.
When he was just a basketball star, he wasn't so exaggerated. Ever since "I Sing Rock, Too" became popular, fans have become more star-chasing than fans.
The album was number one in the United States for 11 weeks and topped the charts in 30 countries. It was certified as an 11th platinum album in December last year and sold a total of 36.7 million copies worldwide, making it the fastest-selling album in history in one year.
Many people don't watch basketball games at all. They only know that Yang Jian is an outstanding person who won 4 Grammy Awards for his first album.
If the disguise glasses work well, Yang Jian can go out and play like an ordinary person again. He likes to pretend, but he can't have no freedom at all.
This month another Elixir of Agelessness was released, which is still worth 3 points.
Eternal Youth Elixir (intermediate level): After use, youth will remain forever and it will be effective within 5 years.
Yang Jian bought the mid-level elixir of life, but felt that the low-level one was a bit uneconomical. In reality, he has more money than he can spend in a few lifetimes, but here in the system mall, he is an out-and-out poor man and must budget carefully.
.
Foot orthotics worth 2 points: Using foot orthotics, having beautiful feet is not a dream, and the results will be seen in one month.
This is a useful black technology, not for Yang Jian’s own use, but for her girlfriends.
Frequent wearing of high-heeled shoes can lead to hallux valgus deformity. This is because the front end of high-heeled shoes is narrow and the heel is high, which produces asymmetric stress on the joints between the big toes, causing hallux valgus deformity.
Some people are so severe that they need surgery and can no longer wear shoes. For example, Michelle Yeoh, the kung fu actress, learned ballet since she was a child. She exercised too much, and later her feet were completely deformed.
Everyone often wears high heels to attend various events, except Gao Yuanyuan. She likes all kinds of flat shoes, casual clothes, and skirts with sneakers. She has such a personality.
Gao Yuanyuan recently returned to China to visit relatives, and she couldn't use Yang Jian's black technology for the time being. However, Yang Jian also gave her a gift and asked her to go back to Beijing to find a house and choose a villa with the largest area and the best location.
The real estate deed is in her name.
Yang Jian wanted to buy one before, but there was no good one. The concept of villa area was first proposed in Beijing around 2000. It refers to the area enclosed by the intersection of Wenyu River and Airport Expressway in the northeastern suburbs of Beijing. It is the earliest high-end villa community.
In short, if a woman wears high heels for a long time, she will have problems, at least not for beautiful feet. Yang Jian believes that this foot orthosis is very useful. In fact, basketball players can also use it, but Yang Jian cannot use it.
Many basketball players have deformed feet that look like aliens. This is the price they pay for long-term training and competition.
Some stars have posted photos showing off their feet, which is a symbol of hard work. Yang Jian also showed off his feet this year, and the fans were shocked. You never train, right?
