A different point guard path

&nvp! "

"An epoch-making player is born! "

"Full of gold, Lin Rui completes self-salvation! "

"The Knicks finally win the championship! ! "

"In the next ten years, the alliance will be ruled by Lin Rui! ! "

"Lin Rui averaged 60+ triple-doubles in the finals! "

"His time has come! "

"The ownership of this championship means that the league will officially enter the era of Lin Rui. "

.........

This season is considered to be the season for Lin Rui to establish his status in the league. He has changed from a superstar to the number one star in the league.

Lin Rui performed crazy miracles one after another, and he made many records pass away.

Looking at Lin Rui's various statistics, the fans and the media seem to have returned to the ancient times of the NBA, and Chamberlain at that time was nothing more than that.

Brand owners who have invested in Lin Rui since last season have also made a lot of money this season.

Now Lin Rui's worth is not comparable to when he first entered the league.

The value of Lin Rui's investment company is also increasing rapidly. As Lin Rui's popularity increases, his investment actions are also attracting more and more attention.

Many financial magazines in New York rated Lin Rui as the athlete with the most investment vision this year.

The added value of the companies Lin Rui invests in is far higher than the wages and endorsement fees he earns from playing basketball.

"Investment Genius", "Basketball Genius"

Lin Rui was gradually dubbed these titles.

Many entrepreneurial teams hope to be favored by Lin Rui.

The workload of Lin Rui's investment company has increased dramatically, and now Lin Rui doesn't pay much attention to those things.

After returning to New York, it was another crazy celebration all night.

On the fourth day after winning the championship, a grand championship parade party was held in New York.

After the parade party ended, the team announced its disbandment, and the players completely entered the holiday.

And the coaching staff and management have devoted themselves to the next important task.

Draft!

The day before the draft, the Knicks announced a deal.

The Knicks packaged Jordan + Crawford + Richardson to the Timberwolves, and got the No. 5 pick + Darko Milicic from the Timberwolves.

This is big deal news.

No one would have thought that the Knicks would send three rotation players in exchange for a No. 5 pick and the No. 03 pick in [-].

Milicic averaged 5.5 points and 4.5 rebounds per game last season. His value is not as good as any of the three main players in the Knicks trade.

There is no doubt that the No. 5 pick is the main body of this transaction, and Milicic is just to balance the salary.

The deal was sprayed by the Knicks media.

"Does Isaiah Thomas think he can still pick a rookie like Lin Rui?"

"Losing three immediate combat power, in place to get a No. 5 pick?"

"Isaiah Thomas breaking up the Dynasty lineup?"

"Although Jordan and Richardson are not important in the playoffs, Crawford is also the chief substitute who has reached the finals in two years, so he is sent out like this?"

"Jordan averaged 6+6 per game, Crawford averaged 13 points per game, and Richardson averaged 7+4 per game. These three are all qualified role players. Isaiah Thomas and James Dolan would not think that they It really depends on their draft to win the championship."

"What the Knicks need to do is to stay the same and adapt to the changes!"

"The Knicks don't need to change, let the opponent change."

"Fake!!!"

The Knicks media and fans once again blasted Dolan and Isaiah Thomas on the forum.

Many fans even went to Lin Rui's social platform to shout, asking Lin Rui to take care of his boss and general manager.

These two guys are so stupid.

Lin Rui looked at the messages on the social platform and smiled.

Naturally, he won't take care of the boss and the general manager, because these two people are doing things according to his wishes.

Of course, it wasn't Lin Rui who said he would trade so-and-so.

Lin Rui just said that he hopes to get a high pick, and then the executives will choose the trading chips according to the players' own intentions.

Crawford himself also wants to get a big contract, and Jordan and Richardson have been complaining about playing time.

Leaving the Knicks is better for their future.

Lin Rui has goals for this draft.

There is no doubt that Lin Rui has become indispensable in the Knicks management as the list of signings provided by Lin Rui last season played a huge role.

Isaiah Thomas is almost obedient to Lin Rui, and Lin Rui has proved his vision.

The relationship between James Dolan and Lin Rui is also in the honeymoon period. Dolan even told Lin Rui that as long as he stays in the Knicks, the Knicks will give shares to Lin Rui after he retires.

Regarding Dolan's big pie, Lin Rui just smiled.

Lin Rui doesn't like that share. If he wants to own an NBA team after he retires, he must be the biggest owner. Smaller owners are meaningless.

......

During Li Feifei's pregnancy, Lin Rui didn't plan to leave her side except for necessary business activities back home.

6 month 25 day.

Not long after the finals ended, the draft kicked off at Madison Square Garden.

The finals are just a grand event for two teams, while the draft is a carnival for the entire league, and all teams will participate in choosing a part of the future team.

Except for the Knicks and the Lakers, they are almost ready.

In the latest draft predictions, Blake Griffin is predicted to be the No. [-] pick this year.

The Knicks have two picks this year, one is the No. 2 pick that was just traded, and the other is the 5th pick in the first round.

nba选秀抽签是没有获得季后赛资格的14支球队将在抽签日排定前14号首轮选秀权的顺序，进入季后赛的16支球队将按照战绩排定15-30顺位的选秀顺序。

The Knicks have the first record in the regular season, and their own first-round pick is the last one.

In the transaction operation of last season, the Knicks sent almost all the draft picks in the next few years, with the exception of this first round pick this year.

The nba draft conference also requires tickets, and it is full of fans, media, and family members of draft players.

Each NBA team will have its own small room, and they will hand out a small note in it, and give the rookie selected by their team to President Stern, and let Stern announce it on the stage!

Because there is a lot of uncertainty in the draft, it is very likely that the rookie you pick will be picked by another team, so you must immediately adopt an alternative plan.

This also poses a huge challenge to the management's resilience.

When Lin Rui appeared at the Madison Square Garden Theater in casual clothes, the fans cheered loudly.

Lin Rui is the master here, and the fans here love him!

Although he is not a rookie candidate, Lin Rui has attracted the attention of all the media.

Lin Rui deliberately walked over to the small green house.

Griffin, Harden, Curry, and DeRozan were waiting for the draft picks, and they all came over to chat with Lin Rui one after another.

Both Griffin and Curry were a little nervous. When they saw Lin Rui, they seemed to be a student meeting a teacher, and they were a little speechless.

Harden's eyes were blurred, as if he hadn't recovered from the nightclubs in New York last night.

Lin Rui said to Curry: "Stephen, don't be nervous, your three-pointers are cool."

Lin Rui said to Griffin: "Blake, I like your dunk."

Lin Rui said to Harden: "James, you play very smart..."

Lin Rui was familiar with their characteristics and names.

Lin Rui's personality is originally that kind of approachable, with a handsome face and friendly language.

This surprised Curry, Griffin and others.

They all thought that Lin Rui didn't know them.

I didn't expect Lin Rui to know them so well.

Lin Rui's enthusiasm and smile are beyond annoying.

"Lin, I'm your fan. I like your three-pointers. I want to play with you." Curry said excitedly.

Curry told the media on many occasions that he likes New York, he wants to play in New York, and Lin Rui is his idol.

Originally, the Knicks had no chance to choose him, but yesterday Curry learned that the Knicks got the No. 5 pick in a trade, so he couldn't wait to explain his thoughts to Lin Rui.

"There will be a chance." Lin Rui smiled.

Griffin, Harden and others didn't think there was anything wrong with Curry's words.

Lin Rui is a superstar and the No. [-] point guard in the NBA. Who wouldn't want to be his teammate?Griffin also thought about it. His characteristics are suitable for eating Lin Rui's pie, but Griffin knows that he is the favorite of the No. [-] pick, and it is almost impossible to be selected by the Knicks. Where will I probably play...

...

...

Lin Rui walked into Nix's room after high-fiving everyone and encouraging exchanges.

Before entering the Knicks room, Lin Rui glanced in the direction of Curry intentionally or unintentionally.

Just right, Curry was still looking at Lin Rui.

Both looked at each other and smiled!

Curry secretly felt that his fate would change from tonight.

...........

After entering the Knicks office.

James Dolan, Isaiah Thomas, D'Antoni and a series of executives are all listed.

These people were all wearing suits and leather shoes, and Lin Rui's sportswear looked very special.

But no one would say that Lin Rui didn't dress seriously enough for such an important occasion.

"Lin, where are you going on vacation?" Dolan came over with a smile and put his shoulders on Lin Rui.

"I'm still thinking about going to places like Miami and Los Angeles." Lin Rui laughed.

"If necessary, I can give you the luxury yacht." Dolan said proudly.

"Well, lend me your private jet as well." Lin Rui said.

"No problem." Doran said.

Dolan is a generous boss, and Lin Rui has a great relationship with him.

Lin Rui helped Dolan earn a lot of money and face, and Dolan also knew how important Lin Rui was to the Knicks!

Soon, Lin Rui chatted and laughed with the executives, coaches, and general manager.

As a championship team, they are the least panicked among the 30 teams.

Because the other 29 teams need to imitate through the draft or try to bring in immediate talent to beat them, they have no pressure on themselves.

soon.

Stern stood on the stage, greeted the boos of the audience, and began to say into the microphone: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Madison Square Garden Theater, I know you don't want to listen to my nonsense, so, we Now on to the topic."

When Stern said this, he stopped, and the scene was booed again.

The booing is often caused by fans feeling that the draft picks are being manipulated....

Of course, it's like this every year, and Stern is used to it.

Stern put his hand to his ear and listened for the boos.

ESPN commentator McBrin, who is broadcasting live, said: "The Clippers should choose the best college forward in the United States, Blake Griffin. Grabbed 30 rebounds, and was still the "scoring leader" in the Big 14.4, averaging 12 points per game. In the ncaa finals, Griffin's average data increased to 22.7 points and 28.5 rebounds per game, and finally led the team into the elite eight Strong, and ultimately lost to this year's NCAA champion North Carolina."

Van Gundy said: "Griffin is also known as "Barkley II! ""

soon.

Stern received the envelope from the staff!

On the stage, after disassembling, Stern said: "In 2009, the first pick in the first round of the NBA, the Los Angeles Clippers chose Blake Griffin from the University of Oklahoma."

This choice was not a big surprise. Griffin took the hat and excitedly ran to the stage to shake hands with Stern.

Los Angeles is a big city, and playing for the Clippers is not bad.

Lin Rui saw Griffin happy.

Griffin was really good in the early stage of his career. He had great physical talent and top dunk skills. He averaged almost 20+10 per game in his rookie season, which is very fierce.

However, the wingspan is too short and there are many injuries, which have restricted his further growth into a superstar.

Of course, Griffin is now very beautiful, and Clippers fans also hope that Griffin can lead the team to rise again like Lin Rui, the No. [-] pick two years ago.

The situation of the Clippers is not much better than that of the Knicks in previous years. The two teams can be called crouching dragons and phoenixes!

The Knicks got rid of the bad team title with a No. [-] pick, and the Clippers are also full of expectations for their No. [-] pick.

With the second overall pick, Memphis selected University of Connecticut's Tanzanian center Hashim Thabeet.

Thabeet didn't start playing basketball until he was 15 years old, which also led to his poor basic skills and sense of the ball.

In the three years at the University of Connecticut, Thabeet's statistics have shown a trend of year-on-year improvement, but the blocking is very different.

Thabeet averaged 3.8 blocks per game in his freshman year, 4.5 in his sophomore year and 4.2 in his junior year.

Thabeet's 417 blocked shots to Connecticut rank second in school history, second only to Okafor.

He is also the 13th college player in NCAA division history to average more than 4 shots per game in his career.

The Grizzlies obviously took a fancy to Thabeet's defense.

But Lin Rui knew very well that Tabet's water had dropped.

Thabeet's skills at the basket are lacking, rebounding and blocking shots rely more on physical talent, there is no advantage in the inside position, the movement speed is not slow, but the footsteps are not fast enough.

These flaws were infinitely magnified in the nba, and he was quickly eliminated by the nba!

Soon, Stern read the third pick, and just like Lin Rui remembered in his previous life, Presti finally chose James Harden.

Although Harden's growth rate in the Thunder in the early stage was not as fast as that in the Rockets period, he can be regarded as a qualified sixth man.

Harden's style of play is also doomed that he will not be able to be the second or third leader of the team. He needs to become the leader of the team.

Let Harden be the boss of the team, and he never has the temperament to lead the team to success.

So much so that at the end of his career, he played in various teams...

In recent years, Thunder is still in the growth stage, so there is nothing to fear.

The Kings chose Tyreke Evans with the fourth overall pick.

This rookie is the pinnacle guy.

In the rookie season, 20+5+5, this kind of data is comparable to Jordan and James in the rookie season.

The main reason is that his style of play and talent are limited. His talent is far less outstanding than that of Jordan and James, and he has reached this height abruptly.

In the later stage, it is only natural for everyone to disappear.

Of course, the current Kings management is still very excited, and their excitement is enough to last a season.

Fifth place!

When the Knicks traded, they made a guarantee to the Timberwolves that they would not rob Rubio from them!

Of course, the Knicks have no interest in Rubio! !

Stern took the Knicks envelope on the stage and said: "The first round, the fifth pick, the Knicks selected Stephen Curry from Davidson College!!!"

CCTV studio.

Zhang Weiping quickly took out Curry's information: "Stephen Curry, 1 meters tall, 91 kilograms in weight, serves as a point guard, and a junior at Davidson College. In his freshman season, Curry averaged 83 points per game to become a sec The league's best rookie and scoring champion.

In his sophomore season, Curry led Davidson College into the quarterfinals of March Madness.

In March 2008, Davidson College successively defeated Gonzaga University, the seventh seed in the country, Georgetown University, the second seed in the NCAA, and the University of Wisconsin, the third seed in the United States. Curry became the fourth in history to score 3 points in the first four games of the NCAA knockout one of the players.Against the University of Kansas, Curry made his 30th three-pointer of the season, creating an NCAA record for three-pointers in a single season.

In his junior season, Curry completed the transformation from an attacking guard to a point guard, leading the nation with an average of 28.6 points per game, and also contributed 4.4 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 2.5 steals.Curry used this to surpass the legendary John Gatti to become the historical scoring leader of Davidson College. Curry scored 42 points against Oklahoma City with Blake Griffin, setting a new NCAA single-game scoring record . "

Zhang Weiping told all the fans about Curry's information.

Domestic fans are very unfamiliar with nba rookies. After hearing the introduction from Director Zhang, they realized that Stephen Curry was also a fierce man in college.

Xu Jicheng said with a smile: "Stephen Curry is very similar to Lin Rui in one thing, and that is the three-point shooting. Curry's father is Dell Curry, who is also a famous shooter in the NBA. Stephen Curry's shooting talent is from a family. genetic."

Zhang Weiping said: "Of course, Stephen Curry's shortcomings are also obvious, that is, his body is very thin. Maybe after going to the NBA, he may not be able to adapt to that kind of confrontation. Some players who have shined in the NCAA cannot adapt to the NBA. a lot of."

Xu Jicheng said: "The Knicks selected Curry mainly to add a substitute for Lin Rui. Lin Rui's playing time in the first two seasons was too long...."

Indeed, the Knicks chose Curry to make him a substitute for Lin Rui.

Curry's style of play is similar to Lin Rui's to a certain extent, except for dunks, of course.

Lin Rui is the number one dunker in the NBA, but Curry is obviously not.

When Curry heard Stern calling his name, his nervous heart instantly relaxed, and he ran over to the stage to shake hands with Stern!

Curry is very excited to be teammates with Lin Rui! !

Of course, Knicks fans are still dissatisfied with choosing Curry at the No. 5 pick.

After all, they traded three rotation players out and then brought back a frail point guard.

If you want a point guard, Flynn, Rubio, Jennings, these point guards are all good, why choose a guy who may not be suitable for NBA confrontation?

Now Curry looks really too thin, even among ordinary people, he is not so strong and eye-catching.

As long as it is a slightly stronger player, it seems that he can be knocked into the air.

Isaiah Thomas was also smiling when he saw Lin Rui's pick of Curry as he wished to win.

Isaiah Thomas likes to use a shooter very much now, and the three-pointer sounds great.

Lin Rui also felt very excited when he saw that the Knicks acquired Curry and changed Curry's original trajectory.

Curry came to play for himself, and the Knicks' bench lineup next season will be stronger.

Others will question whether Curry can adapt to the intensity of the NBA, but Lin Rui can't.

Lin Rui knew how strong Curry grew up!

Crawford is a good sixth man, but compared with Curry, a fool knows how to choose.

Curry put on a Knicks hat for an interview, while Lin Rui and the executives continued to study how to use the second pick.

As the draft continues, the first round of the draft is also coming to an end.

Most of the high-quality rookies have been picked away, and what the Knicks are doing now is to pick them up.

In the end, after discussions between Lin Rui and a group of executives, the Knicks' No. 30 pick also appeared in Stern's injury.

Stern said: "With the 2009th overall pick in the first round in 30, the New York Knicks selected Danny Green from the University of North Carolina!"

Compared with the dissatisfaction with selecting Curry, the Knicks fans at the scene were much more excited when they heard that North Carolina player Danny Green was selected.

No way, the No. 5 pick is a very high pick, and fans naturally expect to choose a future puzzle player, not a player who may be eliminated.

With the No. 30 pick, just choose a role player.

After the end of Danny Green's first season in college, his father, who was a physical education teacher at the time, was imprisoned. Danny Green was under tremendous pressure. He almost quit the team in his sophomore year, but the coach's retention and trust made him The junior became the starter, the senior became the captain, and Danny Green became the player with the most appearances and the most wins in the history of the North Carolina men's basketball team, and finally won the 2009 NCAA championship trophy.

In North Carolina, Danny Green is not a scoring player. Even as a senior, he only averaged 14 points and 4 rebounds per game. What Danny Green can provide is first-hand defense and three-pointers!

He can't become a star player, but he may become a top 3D.

Playing for four years also shows that he is mature enough!

Knowing that the Knicks selected the 30th pick in the first round, Danny Green, who was outside the square, immediately burst into tears.

Danny Green once prepared himself to lose the draft. After all, he is an older rookie and his talent is not good.

Danny Green never imagined that he would be a first-round pick tonight.

The difference between the first-round pick and the second-round pick is that the first-round pick must have a guaranteed contract!

This kind of guarantee contract is too important for Danny Green, whose family is in trouble financially.

Danny Green immediately hugged his mother and family members.

After a while, the phone rang.

An unknown number!

Danny Green picked it up.

"Hi, Danny, hello, I'm Lin Rui."

Hearing Lin Rui's voice, Danny Green stopped crying immediately, and immediately signaled the family to be quiet.

"You, hello, Lin." Danny Green greeted Lin Rui with "Hello!", which he could only speak in Chinese, his voice choked with sobs.

"Welcome to the championship team, buddy, are you ready?" Lin Rui said.

"Of course, I feel honored." Danny Green said excitedly.

Danny Green saw the Knicks' soul-stirring 16-game winning streak in the playoffs this season on TV!

He is extremely excited now! !

"Celebrate with my family these few days. After I finish my work, find some time to come and train with me. Stephen will also come." Lin Rui said.

"Okay, I'll be ready." Danny Green replied.

Danny Green was very excited to have the opportunity to train with Lin Rui.

Lin Rui quickly hung up the phone, but Danny Green still felt like he was dreaming.

"Mom, it was Lin Rui who called me just now!!!" Danny Green was very excited! !

The draft is so amazing!

Overnight, many millionaires were born, and then an ordinary ncaa player and a top nba superstar became teammates!

Soon, Danny Green got a second call, from general manager Isaiah Thomas.

Isaiah Thomas asked if Danny Green was there, and if he was, he went straight in to attend the press conference.

Danny Green bids a quick goodbye to his family and enters the Madison Garden Theater!

Lin Rui met Curry and Danny Green, and left the scene after expressing his expectations for the two.

Lin Rui didn't have much interest in the upcoming press conference.

However, the media still stopped Lin Rui's sports car in the parking lot, and they insisted on letting Lin Rui talk about their views on the rookies.

Lin Rui was forced to roll down the car window: "This will be a big draft year, Blake Griffin, James Harden, Stephen Curry, DeMar DeRozan...these people are very good, they will Be a future All-Star."

Lin Rui left after a few polite words.

On the third day after the draft, the Knicks signed a rookie contract with Curry and Danny Green.

The rookie contracts are all 2+2 models. There is a team option for the third year. The salaries of the No. 5 pick and the No. 30 pick are fixed, and there is a certain fluctuation range.

..........

There is still a lot of news surrounding Lin Rui in the draft.

Some media revealed that Lin Rui's position in the Knicks is very special. He has the right to directly trade players and determine the draft!

After the news broke out, it caused some shock.

Lin Rui's interference with the Knicks management still caused dissatisfaction among some sunspots.

"Lin Rui likes to mention the title of Manager Lin."

"Hey, don't you want to be a player and a manager?"

"I don't like the privilege of Lin Rui."

"I said why the Knicks' trade and draft are so awesome. It turns out that Dolan and Thomas are puppets, and Lin Rui is the mastermind behind the scenes."

.......

The relationship between Isaiah Thomas and Lin Rui was not affected too much by the comments of these black fans.

Isaiah Thomas won the title of the best general manager last season.

Lin Rui will interfere with some work of the management, but not much, and the way of interference will not be offensive.

Of course, based on Lin Rui's own strength, these privileges are taken for granted.

Kobe and James also have the right to make suggestions on the introduction of the team lineup!

Lin Rui doesn't care, it doesn't mean the media don't care.

Lin Rui was asked this question by a reporter when he returned to China to attend the fan meeting.

The reporter asked: "There are many voices saying that you have interfered with the management's operations. What do you think?"

Lin Rui said: "Our ultimate goal is to win the championship. We are working around this goal. I believe this is not our team's first championship!"

Lin Rui did not directly answer the reporter's question.

Lin Rui's meaning is very clear, just to win the championship, he will do this.

Reporters are not good at saying anything.

At this stage, Lin Rui does have the ability to influence the management.

But the Knicks won the championship under the influence of Lin Rui.

16 consecutive victories swept the opponent to win the championship!

Want another 29 teams?

They also want to, but they don't have Lin Rui!

This is just a small episode of summer.

...........

The free agency in 2009 didn't make any big moves.

Most of the big fish are ready to enter the free market next year.

Kobe had the right to terminate the contract early, but he chose to renew his contract with the Lakers.

Kobe has passed the age of trouble. The Lakers have reached the finals for two consecutive years. He has a bunch of helpers around him, and he has nothing to criticize.

The Lakers signed Ron Artest and sent Ariza to the Rockets.

The move of the Lakers to sign Artest is considered to be specifically to restrain Lin Rui.

In addition, in the East, the Cavaliers didn't do much. They renewed the contracts of Big Z and Varejao, and James flirted with many All-Stars, but in the end, no one wanted to go to Cleveland, a place where no shit.

The Celtics have signed Rasheed Wallace. …

There aren't too many superstars changing doors, they're basically additions in the corners.

Lin Rui didn't wait too much to pay attention to the free market, he has many, many things to do.

Lin Rui has invested in many companies.

New energy vehicles, the Internet, football teams, basketball teams.

Lin Rui is too busy with things to finish every day.

After holding various events in China, Lin Rui also returned to New York.

Lin Rui's parents and Li Feifei's parents also came to their home in New York to accompany Li Feifei while she was about to give birth.

On September 9, Lin Rui's child was born, a boy.

After discussing with Li Feifei, Lin Rui named her Lin Yuanxi.

Yuan Xi means to hope for a bright future.

After Li Feifei gave birth, Lin Rui also focused on accompanying the child's growth and basketball training.

Lin Rui invited Curry, Danny Green, Gasol Jr., Tucker and others for special training. There are external trainers for special training, and Lin Rui will also give them technical guidance.

On October 10, the Knicks' training camp officially opened, and the Knicks generals also returned from the vacation.

The Knicks team has also started preparing for the new season! !
