When Curry arrived at the interview area, he officially learned the specific details of the trade.
And then...
The baby-faced assassin’s expression imdiately beca quite colorful.
So, the Grizzlies chose with the second pick...
Only because the Warriors wanted to ensure they could draft ?
Moreover, in the interview area, the young Curry unfortunately encountered a boorang.
"Stephen, you previously ntioned that ssiah is your idol, you wanted to play for the Warriors, and during tryouts, you only worked out for the Warriors.
Now that you’ve finally got what you wished for, could you share your feelings with us at this mont?"
Feelings?
Curry’s true emotions at this mont were probably as unpleasant as eating a chocolate with the taste of excrent.
If possible...
He would rather not be selected at such a high position!
"I am very grateful that the Warriors value so much." Curry said, forced to smile, "It is my honor to play for the Warriors."
Then, a reporter asked: "Stephen, although you and the Warriors are a mutual pursuit, the Warriors are, after all, a championship-contending team, and you might have to prepare for sitting on the bench for a long ti in your rookie season. What do you think about this?"
At this thought, the sorrowful Curry imdiately teared up and said, "I am very happy to join such a competitive team, and even if I can’t play, I think I can learn valuable experiences from it."
Finally, a reporter asked: "Will you feel nervous about playing with your idol?"
Nervous?
Knowing all too well how an Qin Yue can be, Curry was probably feeling that a part of him just wanted to die at this point, and he would still feel nervous?
"I think this is destined to be an unforgettable experience for ." Curry said, tears streaming down his face, "ssiah has always been my role model and one of the motivations for to play basketball."
Curry clearly still needed ti to digest his experiences at this year’s draft.
And then, the Knicks, who really intended to pick Curry with the third overall pick, had to honestly select Jas Harden from the University of Arizona.
Tabbit, nicknad "Mutombo II," was not within the Knicks’ consideration.
Because even until 2010, the Knicks would still enjoy the young contract benefits of Durant and Westbrook.
Therefore, General Manager Donnie Walsh, who had already gradually cleared salary cap space for the Knicks, hoped more to reel in one or two big whales in the 2010 sumr free agency market.
That’s right, the Knicks did not plan to cultivate inside players themselves.
And with the rookie contracts of Durant, Westbrook, and Harden — three future MVPs — expiring before 2010, the Knicks would still have ample salary space in the sumr of 2010 to recruit superstars.
In front of the TV, Qin Yue, who was pondering how to coach Curry, suddenly felt that a Knicks team full of endless possibilities had already appeared before him.
Because given the Knicks’ strong financial resources...
At so future point in ti...
Qin Yue felt that he might even witness a Knicks team full of MVPs firsthand.
After the Knicks picked Harden, the draft continued.
With the fourth overall pick, the Bucks managent, noticing Tabbit’s unexpected drop, unhesitatingly recruited the so-called "Mutombo II."
With the fifth overall pick, the Kings chose the player they were most satisfied with during workouts, Tyreke Evans.
This is a dual-threat guard who, in Qin Yue’s mory, was once praised as "Jas II."
In his career’s first season, Evans put up versatile stats with averages of "20 5 5."
However, due to the impact of injuries, Evans, who debuted at his peak, was one of the rare players to peak right at the start of his career.
With the sixth overall pick, the Timberwolves selected Ricky Rubio from Spain.
Due to a contract with his European team, Rubio had to wait two years before joining the NBA.
In Qin Yue’s previous life, Ricky Rubio, nicknad "Lu Yizhong," had such stiff shooting that you’d find it hard to believe he was a European player.
Throughout his career, Rubio, who even had nurous epic monts of missing layups, seed to Qin Yue like a human rebound generator.
Then, with the eighth overall pick, the Raptors traded up and selected DeMar DeRozan.
The Grizzlies, using the original Warriors’ first-round pick obtained through a three-way trade, selected Tyler Hansbrough from the Tar Heels.
In Qin Yue’s mory, the youngest "50 " scorer in NBA history, Brandon Jennings, was picked by the New Jersey Nets with the tenth overall pick.
Jrue Holiday was selected by the Philadelphia 76ers with the thirteenth overall pick.
The Nuggets, through trading up, obtained Ty Lawson with the eighteenth overall pick.
The New Orleans Hornets selected Jeff Teague with the nineteenth overall pick.
The Atlanta Hawks chose Darren Collison with the twenty-first overall pick.
The Bulls selected Taj Gibson with the twenty-fourth overall pick.
It wasn’t until the Warriors picked North Carolina captain Danny Green with a late first-round pick.
That night, Qin Yue could only marvel that 2009 was indeed one of the top five draft classes in NBA history, as ranked in his mory.
Even though, before the draft began, 2009 was universally recognized as a weak year.
Yet the first-round picks of this year had an absurdly high success rate, and even in the second round, there were hidden gems like Patrick Beverley, Marcus Thornton, and Patrick Mills.
Unfortunately, the Warriors’ roster couldn’t possibly include every hidden gem player.
Moreover, considering that these young players needed corresponding playing ti and ga environnts to truly succeed, after the Warriors drafted Green, Qin Yue decisively turned off the TV.
The Warriors had already acquired the talents they desired on draft night.
After experiencing two years of turmoil with the team, this was Qin Yue’s first involvent in rebuilding a team.
Now, the Warriors need to strive to cultivate young players in the new season while launching another attack on that cursed championship.
