481: Martian animals counterattack(1/3)
If Du Laoer and Roy can stay healthy, this will indeed be an imaginative combination.
Judging from the history of his entire career, Roy is definitely not as good as Ha Ji-seok.
Ha Jishi is the MVP after all, while Roy's biggest career honor is just being in the second team.
But in terms of immediate combat power, the combination of Roy and Durant may be able to unleash greater power.
Durant came on stage and shook hands with Stern. At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Oden, who had just been selected by the Celtics. Little did they know that this big boy with a unique temperament was the real devil of the 2007 class.
His appearance directly improved the temperament of NBA players.
After Durant stepped down, he actually felt a little disappointed inside.
Because he feels that he is no worse than Oden.
Damn it, that guy in Oden who looks like he's in his 20s but looks like he's in his 50s can't even drink the bath water warm!
How can you compare with my temperamental and handsome man?
Forget it, let the Celtics regret it.
Regret? Anji was so happy.
Ten years ago, the Celtics missed Duncan. Now, ten years later, the Celtics got what they wanted and got Oden.
In Anji’s view, Lukai’s revival plan has already begun to take off!
And Ainge firmly believes that Oden's influence is enough to attract some stars.
Even if Pierce does leave, the Celtics are not afraid that no other star will take over.
The first two players in this year's draft are already considered the top picks.
The show was so good at the beginning, which made the rest of the draft look a bit boring.
The Hawks still selected Horford with the third pick, and the Grizzlies took Conley with the fourth pick. The fifth pick became the Trail Blazers, and they also took reverse Pachulia and Jeff Green.
The subsequent drafts will basically be very different from the original history.
Li Ang has also been waiting for A Yue's name.
Finally, all the hard work paid off. At the 30th pick, A Yue made a sure kill!
With the 30th pick, the Philadelphia 76ers selected Sun Yue. Following Li Ang, Yao Ming and Arab League, Sun Yue became the fourth Chinese player to be selected in the first round of the NBA.
Fortunately, the current general manager of Philadelphia is not a dog, otherwise Ah Yue's situation would be somewhat embarrassing.
Although he is not a lottery pick, considering that Sun Yue is already 22 years old, it is quite good to enter the first round.
Because of the Chinese market and the fact that Sun Yue was predicted to be selected in the first round, Sun Yue in this history was invited into the Little Green Room.
Ah Yue walked onto the stage, put on a 76ers hat, and shook hands with Stern cordially.
Stern looked at Sun Yue with joy, as if he was seeing a bunch of green and colorful knife music.
Another player from the world's number one basketball team has arrived in the NBA.
Is this an honor for Chinese players? No, this is an honor for the NBA!
Li Ang also smiled. This history is because Sun Yue has been playing CBA systematically, so his strength is stronger than the original history.
The 76ers are now a bad team. In a bad team, Ayue can get more playing time than in the Lakers.
This was an excellent training for him.
After A Yue plays in the NBA for one year, his strength will definitely improve to the next level.
Yao Ming is the absolute core in the Bulls, A-Lian is stable in the Warriors, and he is generally a stable rotation player in the Hawks. Now, there is another Sun Yue who has a chance to establish himself in the NBA.
The Chinese Legion in 2008... was truly unprecedentedly powerful!
The matter of the draft has come to an end for the time being. Originally, Li Ang suggested that the team take Gasol in the second round, but the Lakers took the lead.
But it doesn't matter. As a championship team, the Suns didn't pay much attention to this draft.
The dust of the draft has settled, but Li Ang knows that this crazy summer transfer market has just begun.
However, before the transfer market started and the players had not started to transfer, the team was the first to make a transfer.
One day after the draft, the NBA officially announced that the Los Angeles Clippers had changed ownership.
Although Sterling publicly apologized and begged, he was still ordered to sell the team.
Although Stern doesn't have many ways to deal with Li Ang, he still has many ways to deal with others.
In desperation, Sterling sold the team and severed ties with the NBA from now on.
As expected, the person who took over the Clippers was the NBA's largest money-maker, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer!
How capable is Ballmer? It’s not difficult to see from the price he paid to acquire the Clippers.
Because the Clippers were to be sold, there were many bidders, including Magic Johnson.
The market value of the Clippers is also between $400-500 million.
Although the Clippers are located in Los Angeles, because the Lakers are in the same city, the Clippers' popularity has never been high, and the team's image is also very average.
You see, the Clippers are often ridiculed by fans as the second team in Los Angeles.
This shows that the Clippers' position in the league is almost equivalent to Artest's position in the Bulls.
Just when everyone was bidding in full swing, Ballmer directly launched a wave of dimensionality reduction attacks.
He directly invested 1.5 billion, three times the market value of the Clippers, and pocketed the team!
Those who really do big things will get a fixed price.
Ballmer's bid directly silenced other bidders.
Isn’t this just killing people?
What the hell, it's like when a group of people were still discussing how to find a girlfriend, one person suddenly said: "Girlfriends change, don't they?"
It's simply heart-wrenching.
What is the concept of 1.5 billion? When Savo bought the Suns, he set the record for the highest change of ownership of an NBA team, but it was only over 400 million.
This is the first time in NBA history that someone has spent more than one billion to buy a team.
When Ballmer made the bid, Sterling's wife was stunned.
She even called to confirm: "Brother, did you drink too much last night?"
Ballmer smiled slightly: "I did drink too much. I originally thought of 2 billion."
As soon as the offer of 1.5 billion came out, everyone else also gave up, saying they couldn't afford it.
If this continues, I am afraid that I will boldly take over as the banker in the first year of junior high school, and leave my hometown in the second year of junior high school.
Ballmer's incident proves that there is indeed a superhero in Mi Li's family. Even if he uses all his super powers, he still can't be called a super hero?
In this way, Ballmer got the Clippers without any suspense. The owners of the other 29 teams in the NBA have also voted to approve Ballmer's appointment.
However, some people think that Ballmer is just a big bastard. If he buys the Clippers for 1.5 billion, let alone make money, it’s up to him whether he can get his money back.
However, Ballmer doesn't feel bad at all. This little money is just a waste of money.
Most NBA owners are worth just over a billion or several billion. The owner of the Spurs who sells tractors is only worth 200 million.
Currently, the only person with a net worth of tens of billions is Paul Allen, the tycoon of the Trail Blazers.
As for Ballmer, his net worth is already approaching 100 billion!
In the NBA, his level of wealth is the same as Paul's playoff points difference, and he is a unique existence.
If he really gets his act together, no one in the league can stand his game.
Li Ang shook his head. In the original history, Ballmer invested 2 billion to buy the Clippers. However, considering that it is only 2007, the price of 1.5 billion is also very exaggerated.
It's a pity, because the NBA has many restrictions and complicated rules on transfers, so just having money may not be useful.
This Clippers, I don’t know when they will be close to the championship.
Ballmer's purchase of the Clippers settled Stern's worries.
After Sterling was cleared, the person who is most likely to affect the image of the league now... is Li Ang!
Li Ang regains the top spot!
In the heat of this 1.5 billion dollar offensive, the lively transfer market has finally begun.
Because the Suns are the defending champions, and Savo has a good personality, the Suns will definitely not be deeply involved in the transfer matter.
At best, it's just a minor repair.
But other teams are rushing to directly change their appearance.
For example, the Celtics' Ainge is set to acquire several stars this summer.
The first person he found was Tracy McGrady of the Mavericks.
Why Tracy McGrady? Because it’s only the first day of free agency, and many big fish have already been caught.
Carter and Milicic both announced their contract extensions with the Bulls and will continue to assist Yao Ming in his success.
To be continued...
