Chapter 177 Who are the remaining two draft picks?
Wade and Anthony are still lamenting that James actually made the Cavaliers choose Paul quietly, and Paul is still in a state of excitement.
Instead, James patted Paul and reminded him, "You are going to go on stage to take our team's hat."
Paul hesitated for a moment before recovering, stood up and walked onto the stage.
After Paul walked up, James smiled and said, "Look, Paul's performance is not much better than my performance last year, isn't he also looking confused? Hahaha..."
Both Wade and Anthony shook their heads with a smile, this guy is a bit hateful.
Paul went up to speak and came back, and it was the turn of the 76ers, who held the ninth pick in the first round, to choose.
They chose Andre Iguodala.
James sighed in his heart. It would be great if the team had two relatively high draft picks and could win Paul and Iguodala at the same time.
But things don't always go as expected.
They also have a pick with the 19th pick in the first round and a pick with the 40th overall pick in the second round.
I hope that these two draft picks can select two of the rookie candidates he has circled. He doesn't really remember the specific draft picks of those players that year, but he just has a general impression.
He just relied on his general impression and his understanding of their future career achievements to delineate them and put them in a priority order. If they really fall into the Cavaliers' pick, they can be selected Give selected.
After Paul decided to participate in the draft this year, Paul was mentioned by him at the top of the list of candidates. James is looking forward to working with such a point guard who can enter the Hall of Fame in the future.
Moreover, the future development trend of basketball will rely more and more on point guards. Grabbing Paul means that they can be one step ahead and don't need to wait for Irving to appear in the future. That guy Irving is not willing to be his deputy.
What's more, how things will change and develop in the future, he is not sure now, the future has changed because of his time travel, isn't Paul the best example?
According to the script of the previous life, Paul will not participate until next year. He will be selected by the Hornets and then become the queen bee. He will compete with Deron Williams for the top position of the new generation of point guards in the West.
Now he has come to the East, to the Cavaliers, and stood with him.
James remembered the deal that Paul had the opportunity to join forces with Kobe in Los Angeles in his previous life, but was rejected by the league for basketball reasons. As a Kobe fan at the time, he still scolded the league for it.
Who would have thought that one day Paul would join forces with him?
Things in this world are really unpredictable.
James couldn't help laughing, and he was.
Wade noticed that he was smiling all the time, "LeBron, you have been laughing all the time today. It seems that Paul was selected by you. You are super happy."
"That's a must." James nodded with a smile.
"When we were on vacation, we imagined playing together. We didn't expect the two of you to become reality first." Anthony said with a smile.
Paul said: "It's called happiness coming a bit suddenly, haha..."
"Next, who will you choose?" Wade was still quite curious about which two players the Cavaliers would choose from the remaining draft picks.
"Didn't you say you want to pick a shooting guard?" James blinked.
"Now the 14th pick is selected, JR-Smith and Kevin-Martin have not been selected yet, maybe you can really select them." Anthony continued.
"Maybe it's really okay." Wade was a little happy for James, but he turned his head nervously to look at the stage, and he was about to go to the Heat to choose.
With the 16th overall pick, the Heat selected Dorell Wright, a player with outstanding physical attributes.
Wade feels that his team's selection is not bad, and they have selected the players they need, which is in their plan.
Next is the Eagles selection with the 17th overall pick. They won Josh Smith. This is a good choice. They have selected the future Eagle King.
"It seems that you can choose one of JR-Smith and Kevin-Martin, neither of them has been selected yet." Anthony patted James on the shoulder.
"These two seem to be good as my backcourt partners." Paul said happily. He has completely spoken from the standpoint of Cavaliers players.
With the 18th pick, the Hornets chose JR-Smith.
"Oh, JR was drafted away, this guy is very capable of scoring." Paul said with a bit of regret.
"It's up to you, you can choose Kevin Martin, but he always feels a little thin..." Anthony said.
Wade nodded in agreement with Anthony's statement, "There is no way to pick a general among short people, and the 19th pick is okay."
James smiled and shook his head. He never said that he would choose JR-Smith and Kevin-Martin.
Yes, yes, these two people are among the candidates he circled, but they are not the first choice after Paul.
That person hasn't been elected yet.
With the 19th pick, the Cavaliers selected Tony Allen from Oklahoma State University.
Wade scratched his head, "It's not Kevin Martin?"
Anthony was also a little surprised, "We can't even guess what the Cavaliers chose today."
After the Cavaliers picked Tony Allen, James quietly clenched his fist and waved it, YES, the Cavaliers' defense line has Paul and Tony Allen, which is quite solid.
Of course, the premise is that they can all play at the same level as in their previous lives.
But James believes that this problem is not big.
Kevin Martin was selected by the next Kings, which shows that many things are still developing in the direction of the previous life, and have not been completely disrupted by James' time travel.
The Cavaliers also have a second-round pick, which can be used for Taobao.
If the second round is selected well, some very good players can still be selected, such as Manu Ginobili of the Spurs, general Arenas, and the future teacher Yue.
The second-round picks just have a low probability of becoming talents, but it doesn't mean they don't have any. It takes a unique vision to select these good players.
James just doesn't lack this vision, and it is estimated that no one has a better vision than him.
With the 1st pick in the second round and the 30th overall pick, the Magic selected Anderson Varejao.
Picked all the way down, and soon at No. 38, the Chicago Bulls selected Chris Duhon.
The Raptors selected Albert Miralles with the 39th overall pick.
Now that the Cavaliers are here, James let go of his clenched fists and grinned. The Cavaliers' harvest in the draft today is very good.
With the 40th overall pick, the Cavaliers selected Trevor Ariza from UCLA.
