But...
With Wallace still at the peak of his career, Butler, who needs developnt, can instead gain a more beneficial growth environnt, much like Curry as a backup for Nash, and have a ntor who can help him grow quickly.
anwhile, at the draft venue...
The Kings’ managent team breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that the Warriors agreed to the trade.
Although when the Kings proposed this trade to the Warriors’ managent team, the Kings’ managent was also worried that a 27th pick in a draft considered weak might not impress the Warriors.
But since the chief decision-maker for this Warriors team is Qin Yue.
Even the ever-shrewd Warriors president, Riley, couldn’t stop this new GOAT from having a sudden burst of "inspiration."
However, before the Warriors and the Kings could make the trade, they still had to patiently wait for the draft to progress.
At the 13th and 14th picks in the first round, the "Morris Brothers," Markieff Morris and Marcus Morris, who in the future would confuse even seasoned fans when playing for the sa team, were selected by the Phoenix Suns and Jazz, respectively.
And at the 15th pick in the first round...
According to the agreent with Budenholzer, Kawhi Leonard, who refused tryouts from other teams—leading to no one but the Hawks and Qin Yue knowing his potential—was recruited by the Hawks.
In Qin Yue’s past life, it was Budenholzer’s recomndation that ultimately prompted the Spurs to trade Popovich’s beloved George Hill for Leonard.
It was rumored that this trade nearly made Popovich break down on the spot.
Because at that ti, Hill had almost fully realized his potential, yet the Spurs wanted to trade him for a young forward with unknown potential.
Fortunately, since in this life Budenholzer left the Spurs early and established his own path, Popovich didn’t have to break down.
Qin Yue believes that under Budenholzer’s careful nurturing, Leonard unlocking his potential to beco the warrior god is just a matter of ti.
It’s just unclear...
Whether this small-town big city of Atlanta can capture the heart of this clip-fra version of Jordan in the future?
Additionally, in Qin Yue’s mory, the well-known first-round picks of 2011, like Nikola Vucevic, Iman Shumpert, Tobias Harris, Donatas Motiejunas, "Half-Beastman" Faried, Nikola Mirotic, Reggie Jackson, and the future CBA legend Marshon Brooks, were selected by the 76ers, Nuggets, Pistons, Rockets, Supersonic, Bulls, Knicks, and Bucks, respectively.
This is what scouts generally considered the 2011 draft year as a weak draft.
With the 27th pick in the first round, according to the agreent with the Warriors, the Kings helped the Warriors select Jimmy Butler and then imdiately traded him to the Warriors in exchange for Josh McRoberts, who was highly favored by the Kings’ managent team.
ESPN’s A-Smith sharply comnted on this trade at the first opportunity: "What kind of magic did the Kings use on the Warriors? Isn’t this outright robbery?"
Yes, if not viewed through the lens of ti travel,
Then this was definitely a robbery.
What level of player is McRoberts?
He’s a champion forward with two rings already under his belt.
He’s a high-power player with both shooting range and playmaking ability.
And Butler?
Just a late first-round pick in a weak draft year.
Does he really deserve to be traded one-for-one for McRoberts?
In fact, the mont the trade was completed, Warriors president Riley had ntally drafted a "self-repentance letter."
After all, the Warriors couldn’t let Qin Yue take the bla for a bad trade.
So, as it was rely a trade made to satisfy the GOAT’s requirents, Riley naturally prepared in advance to take the bla for Qin Yue in the future.
As for Butler himself?
In the interview hallway, when Butler learned he was traded to the Warriors...
This young man, a fellow disciple of Wade from Marquette University who resembles Jordan, imdiately felt elated inside.
Whether in past or present life, Butler, who always aid for winning above all, had the biggest dream before entering the draft to play for a strong team.
Even if it ans he might not start as a starter early in his career, it doesn’t matter.
Because compared to being a starter, Butler has always preferred winning gas.
Moreover, to Butler’s surprise and delight, the renowned GOAT even called him through his agent after the trade.
Although Butler couldn’t understand why the GOAT’s advice was:
To shave a clean, fresh head.
To choose the Warriors’ number 23 jersey, which has been vacant since Jason Richardson left, as his number to compete in the NBA.
But upon learning that the GOAT plans to personally ntor him in playing basketball this sumr, Butler excitedly said, "It would be my greatest honor to receive your guidance!"
This sumr, even though Grover and Ma Long planned to give Qin Yue a break until the regular season started,
Qin Yue, who couldn’t just stay off the court, had already made up his mind.
"Tim, I can refrain from high-intensity systematic training," Qin Yue said, "But what if I’m just teaching young players to play?"
Upon hearing this, knowing that Qin Yue only truly loves basketball, Grover couldn’t help but chuckle, "If you just want to teach young players basketball, that’s perfectly fine."
Given that his current talent evaluation skills have been seriously questioned by the Warriors managent team.
