NBA: The best team doctor in history

Chapter 205: Quack

Is there a reversal?

A line of text appeared on the LCD screen at the scene, detailing the transaction:
"The Portland Trail Blazers traded White Chocolate + Blake + the 15th pick for the 6th pick and got Stephen Curry."

Portland Trail Blazers???
Now Curry's eyes suddenly became much clearer.

He did think the Trail Blazers would be interested in him.

I just didn’t expect them to really choose it!

And in such a "violent" way.

Directly changed to No. 6 pick!!!
But Curry was in a good mood because he also liked the Trail Blazers. Mainly because Jiang Ming gave him a lot of good suggestions. Which rookie would refuse such a master team doctor?

Adjusting his shooting and landing posture is just the beginning. If he really goes to the Trail Blazers, wouldn’t he become super durable?

But the entire hall was filled with loud boos. Of course, the boos were not directed at Curry, but at the Knicks' army of strategists. Some Knicks fans even held their heads in their hands, looking annoyed, as if they couldn't believe that the Trail Blazers had snatched away their ideal man!
Are the Timberwolves crazy or are the Trail Blazers crazy?
The Warriors and Knicks management were both dumbfounded.

that's all.
Gone? ? ?

They haven't decided who to choose next!
Choose Jordan Hill?

Old Nelson, who was about to make a choice, was dumbfounded. Mainly because he did not expect the Trail Blazers would be willing to give up two point guards, Bai Qiao and Blake.

Does this mean that now they suddenly only have Dragic as a pure point guard?

Now add Curry, that makes two.

Is this a all-in game or something?
Is Curry worth all the money?

Just let two rookie point guards play next season???
You know, if they were offered this price, they would not be able to resist making the trade. Who doesn't love White Chocolate, not to mention Blake who has been trained by the Trail Blazers.

I just didn't expect them to be so decisive!

It seems like the Timberwolves made a profit from this deal!

Donnie Walsh and old Nelson have a blank mind now, what the hell???

They planned for a long time, but someone stole their chicken!!!
Or a strong team like the Trail Blazers!

Why would a team like the Trail Blazers, which is in the top 4 of the Western Conference in the regular season, want such a rookie?

indeed.

Don’t look at the Knicks fans at the scene making noises and expressing their dissatisfaction.

The Trail Blazers fans in front of the TV started cursing. They were also dissatisfied:
"Is Pioneer eating shit? What's the point of having such an internet celebrity player?"

"Letting Blake go too??? He's our starting point guard! Can Dragic handle it without him?"

"Can Curry, with his small body, be the starting point guard? Is Dr. Jiang blind? Or did Curry give money to the Trail Blazers?"

"quack!!!"

"Absolutely a quack! I can see that Curry's body won't last long in the NBA. Is that why the Trail Blazers want him so much? Huh? @Blake @WhiteChocolate, did you guys get notified? So ruthless!"

"@Blake@WhiteChocolate, I also want to ask, you guys have worked so hard for the past two seasons, and you were sold out like this!"

"Jiang Ming should not be a member of management @Paul Allen!!!"

"A team doctor working in the management is like a Jinyiwei taking charge of the government. It's like not specializing in your profession!"

"Damn it, the Trail Blazers won't even make it to the Western Conference semifinals next year. The most experienced veteran in the team, White Chocolate, has been thrown away."

"GG ​​Smecta!!! Expert Jiang Muyan can return to China, and Jiang Ming the quack doctor only wants traffic now!"

In fact, the Trail Blazers had already informed Blake and the others in advance, but at that time they only expressed uncertainty that it was a possibility and hoped for understanding.

Although neither of them quite understood it, it was better to tell them in advance than to trade them suddenly.

This also made both of them mentally prepared after the news came out. After sending each other "the future is fine" messages in the group, they sadly took the initiative to leave the group.

But overall it was a peaceful breakup.

In the words of white chocolate:

"Without you, I might have retired two years ago. You let me enjoy two more years of playoff basketball. Thank you, and I wish you continue to move forward on the road to the championship. Come on, I'll be watching you!"

He also privately told Jiang Ming and Paul Allen that what they were doing was correct, because Bai Qiao herself knew that she had no more energy left.

He also made it clear to the two that even if they did not trade him, he would not sign with any team after his contract expired next year and would announce his retirement.

No matter how good Jiang Ming's physical therapy is, he is already tired. The main reason is that he has become the main point guard and won the championship, so he is not as motivated as other young people of the Trail Blazers. He thinks that this group of people must win a championship!
Only Blake felt this way.

So he was really a little angry, and said half-jokingly:
"Don't let me run into you again, I'll beat you to pieces!"

"Go ahead and blast us! We all want you to blast us and slap us in the face. Sorry!"

"I'm sorry, brother. Come to Portland more often when you have time!"

But what can I say? His agent comforted him, saying that the NBA is a place where winners take all, and now Blake has shown that he is not suitable for the current Trail Blazers.

The Trail Blazers' perimeter defense was not very good, Blake was still a big leak, and the offense was mainly based on organization. To be honest, it slowed down the rhythm of this young guard team.

Blake himself is aware of this, so he plans to practice spot-on three-pointers and three-pointers with the ball during the offseason to enhance his personal offense.

But obviously the pioneers are unwilling to wait and go straight to the finished embryos.

Doesn't Curry now feel like Blake, whose dribbling and shooting are faster and smoother? And looking at the physical test data, he runs faster than Blake too.

So it seems that the transaction is going well???

After all, White Chocolate only has a one-year contract, which is equivalent to a free pick, and the 15th pick is of little use in a weak draft year. By the time the 15th pick is selected, there will be no good players left.

Back to the draft scene.

The Timberwolves hat that the staff originally held was replaced with a Trail Blazers hat in seconds. After Curry put it on, he felt an unreal feeling. This was the big basketball market that his father had been talking about for so long.

So you ended up going to the city where Adidas’ headquarters is located?

Going to a team that ranked third in last year's playoffs, he is obviously the luckiest among all the rookies.

The players in the green room all had envious expressions on their faces. They all knew that if Curry joined the Trail Blazers, they would definitely be able to play in the playoffs next year no matter what.

Most of these players in the green room will go to bad and weak teams, and they will never be able to make the playoffs immediately the following year.

And what’s even more terrifying is that when you think about it carefully.

The Trail Blazers spent one draft pick and two point guards in this trade.

Now there is only one point guard, Dragic, so if Curry joins the Trail Blazers, he will definitely have the opportunity to rotate!
So comfortable!

We can make the playoffs and play on our own!
It is still unknown whether Curry is the best performing rookie of this year, but he is definitely the luckiest.

Didn’t you see that Curry’s dad’s expression was actually pretty good? Because he also knows that compared to a big basketball market, personal honor is more important in the NBA.

For example, he has never missed the playoffs since entering the NBA. If he can make the playoffs as a rookie, it will be difficult for him to go to a weak team. Because the natural law of a rookie is to either lead a tank team for a few years to become a representative player of the city, and then be traded to a playoff team to strengthen it. No tank team will want immediate combat power.

Or the team will provide them with retirement support, but when they become stars, they usually retire on their own initiative before the team is about to fall into disrepair if they see that the team cannot make the playoffs.

In other words, if a player lingers in the playoffs after growing into a combat-ready player, he will always be in the playoffs team.

And if a rookie doesn't perform well at the beginning, then there will be no value in trading him later, and he will most likely retire where he is.

Therefore, the Trail Blazers are indeed a good choice in the eyes of Curry's father.

According to the fans:
"According to the laws of nature, the Blazers will make it to the Western Conference Finals this year."

Curry's wife Ayesha was confused.
I guess she's still thinking, where the hell is Portland? I haven't heard of it before. Didn't we say we were going to New York?

Because Ayesha is from Toronto, she doesn't know much about the United States. She doesn't know where this is or what Curry is doing. (Illustration)
Her selfish motive must be that the seventh generation fell behind and was chosen by the Raptors, so that he could return to his hometown of Toronto.

But a text message from her grandfather made her much happier.

right!

It’s a good choice to be chosen by the Trail Blazers!

The Trail Blazers have the miracle doctor Jiang Ming!
It was only with her grandfather's reminder that she remembered that she had some Chinese ancestry, because Ayesha's grandfather was Chinese, and Ayesha's grandfather also liked Chinese medicine.

So Ayesha’s grandfather was the happiest when Curry was going to the Trail Blazers. He will definitely have the opportunity to communicate about traditional Chinese medicine with Jiang Ming in the future!
“Welcome to the NBA.”

"Thank you!"

Curry and David Stern hugged each other warmly on stage.

When Curry arrived backstage, he was greeted with a hug from the Trail Blazers management.

“Welcome to the Pioneer family!”

Jiang Ming also stretched out his arms and said excitedly:

"Let's do something big!"

He really thinks Curry's shooting will definitely shine in the NBA. You know, no one in the NBA will double-team Curry, and NBA teammates are not like those in the NCAA where there are always weak links.

Like at Davis College, Curry was surrounded by colored pencils, so other teams would double-team him without thinking.

But this won’t happen in the NBA. Who dares to double-team?
What if Roy is double-teamed?
How about Maggette, Ade, and Oden?
Therefore, Curry's joining can not only enhance the three-point firepower, but also completely open up the space.

And once the opponents don't take Curry seriously, Curry's open three-pointer ability will teach them a lesson.

Curry also excitedly punched Jiang Ming's chest:

"You really chose me! I will definitely do my best to repay you!!"

Curry also understands that the Blazers spent so much to get him, which means they really trust him, so he has to repay them well! !
"It's okay, train hard, everything will be fine with us here."

Jiang Ming didn't say much, but he couldn't wait for the next season to start.

This is a more powerful version of Blake. According to Curry himself, he has three-point accuracy even in the logo, and his double-team passing ability has also been well developed in the NCAA.

If he practices more on organization in the NBA, his three-point threat will definitely make the whole team flow smoothly!
Didn’t we see that Parker eliminated the Trail Blazers this time with his accurate mid-range shot and defeated the Trail Blazers?

And Curry is an accurate three-point shooter!
This kind of three-point shooter won't lose his accuracy just because he's on an NBA court, because his hands are still there.

"We have to choose. Let's win the championship together. We'll go to the venue first. McGowan will contact us later about the specific contact information and what to do. Come on."

"Okay, no problem!"

Curry grinned, his baby face looked like a 10-year-old elementary school student.

"Let's think about the next round."

When Jiang Ming and his friend returned to the draft, they happened to see a magical scene: Johnny Flynn was selected by the Warriors with the seventh pick. They really wanted a point guard!

So the only one left was Johnny Flynn, who was chosen directly. Johnny Flynn is also a point guard, but unlike Curry, he is good at breaking through, just like Iverson.

But Jiang Ming and the others felt that this was just to disgust the Timberwolves.

Because isn't Alice in their own team this type of player?
Want to choose another one?
Obviously upset.

The Knicks did not choose the boss, but to fill a gap and selected Jordan Hill, a flexible inside player, which is in line with the trend of basketball in recent seasons.

To be honest, this choice is really good. Jordan Hill is a very strong defensive inside player who can switch defense infinitely. If the offense can be improved, he can be another Bosh.

Toronto in the North selected DeRozan, while the Bucks chose Jennings.
Jiang Ming and the others stopped watching and went straight to the next round.

But with Patty Mills being drafted by the Spurs, it seems that the only player left for the Trail Blazers is North Carolina captain Danny Green???
"Another three-pointer, are you sure?"

Larry Miller hesitated and said that in fact, in general, teams would not select players for the same position in the first and second rounds of the draft.

Basically, they choose one inside and one outside, so that they can deal with emergencies when the new season starts. No matter which position has problems, there will be rookies to replace it.

Jiang Ming nodded:

"He's not a three-point shooter. You can count the three-point shot as a gift. The main thing is his defense. Second-round picks usually have their weaknesses magnified. The biggest weakness is that he's a guard but doesn't have much dribbling ability. But he's definitely a second-round pick."

Larry Miller took a final look at Danny Green's stats.
In his sophomore season, Green averaged only 5.2 points and 2.8 rebounds per game. In any era, such dry data would never be able to bring him to the NBA and gain the favor of any NBA team boss or coach.

But he was also smart and did not choose to participate in the draft in his sophomore year.

So, after the end of his sophomore season, Green once thought about transferring schools and wanted to go to a college team that could give him more roles.

But fortunately he didn't leave, fortunately, he persisted in order to complete his studies...

大三赛季，格林的场均输出突然飙升到11.5分4.9篮板2助攻1.2抢断1.2盖帽。

In addition, his three-point shooting percentage has also improved significantly. The 37.3% three-point shooting percentage finally allows him to have the attribute of "fixed-point attack" in a team's tactical system.

But his three-point shooting is just like what Jiang Ming said. He is just a three-point shooting point in the bottom corner. If there is a little interference, his shooting rate will drop rapidly.

The reason is that he does not have Curry's ability to combine with the ball and shoot. He cannot create shooting opportunities by himself and can only rely on how well his teammates pass the ball to him.

Entering his senior season, Green became the captain of North Carolina. Under his leadership, North Carolina has achieved great success this season. They made it all the way to the finals of the "March Madness" and won the fifth National Championship in team history.

It was also during his four years in college, under the careful training of coach Roy Williams, that Green grew into a player with an indomitable character and realized the true meaning of basketball as a team sport.

When he left North Carolina, Green was already the most meritorious player in team history with the most appearances and the most wins...

But he was described as mediocre in all scouting reports.

The success the North Carolina captain had during his four years in college, especially his senior season, did not help Green in today's NBA draft.

In the eyes of NBA draft experts and scouts, he still has the inherent impression of being mediocre in talent, and his position is still in the category of a supporting role.

"There are also gold medal extras for extras! Our Trail Blazers also need players like Ariza from the Lakers!"
