Next, with the fourth pick, the Magic selected Aaron Gordon, a dunker with a very strong physical fitness.

Richard was startled. It seemed that Aaron Gordon had also missed half of his rookie season...

Good guy, the reason why Wiggins is so healthy has finally been found.

The following three players in the draft have all been reimbursed. Wiggins, the top pick, said he was under a lot of pressure and could only maintain his health and seek safety.

Next, the Jazz picked Dante Essam, a defender, with the fifth pick. Under normal circumstances, the Jazz selected Dante Essam with the fifth pick.

However, because Gobert was replaced by Richard last season, the Jazz currently lacks big men, and the two big men they randomly selected are not useful, so they did not choose Essa this time. Tom, instead chose a power forward player like Julius Randle.

Randle was originally selected by the Lakers with the seventh overall pick.

When the Lakers saw that Randall was selected, they did not panic. Now the Lakers really lack everything. Since the Jazz didn't want Essam, they simply took Essam.

Next came the 13th pick, and it was the Timberwolves' pick again. This time they made a clever move and selected shooting guard Zach LaVine from UCLA, the holy land of basketball.

To be precise, it should be UCLA, the former basketball mecca, because the current basketball mecca is Purdue University.

Embiid and Randall, who were relatively high in this year's draft, both came from Purdue University.

The 13th overall pick is also interesting. Anyway, if you don't know who to pick, you'd be right to pick a shooting guard.

Soon the 22nd pick was reached, and the Jazz selected Rodney Hood at this pick, a very cost-effective choice.

In this year's draft, many teams hold more than two first-round picks, such as the Jazz, Timberwolves and Suns...

The reason for this situation may be that Richard did not accumulate draft picks this year, which caused many teams to bet on this draft and then sold their draft picks.

Next came the Clippers' 23rd pick. Richard didn't hesitate at all and directly used the 23rd pick to select Serbian center Nikola Jokic.

There is no doubt that Teacher Yue must be the best player after the 23rd pick in the first round.

And the choice of Jokic was actually entrusted by others.

Teacher Yok's compatriot Milicic called Richard two months before the draft, hoping that Richard would select Jokic and ensuring that Jokic would never let Richard down.

Milicic is definitely considered a first-line power forward in the league. He has countless honors at hand. With a high status, his pursuits will naturally be different. He has now begun to support some young players in Serbia.

Under normal circumstances, Milicic himself did not succeed. After retiring, he first became a boxer, and then returned to the countryside of Serbia to run a greenhouse vegetable business. How could he be qualified to support his juniors.

Richard naturally agreed. Even if Milicic did not come to intercede, he would definitely choose Jokic.

In this draft, in Richard's opinion, the best player in the first round should be Embiid, and in the second round it must be Jokic.

Even in Richard's view, Jokic is more practical than Embiid.

And in terms of cost-effectiveness, Jokic is definitely much higher...

Embiid is the third overall pick, while Jokic is normally only the 41st overall pick in the second round.

It would be unreasonable not to choose Jokic.

In addition to Jokic in the second round, there are actually some players that Richard is more interested in, such as Dinwiddie of the later Nets. This is a good player.

It's a pity that compared to Jokic, it is definitely not enough. Richard will naturally not do the thing of picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons.

Soon the 24th pick was completed and it was the Spurs' 25th pick.

Whenever the Spurs start to select players, Richard is a little frightened, really afraid that the Spurs will select some more cost-effective players.

"I announce that the San Antonio Spurs selected Clint Capela from Geneva, Switzerland with the 25th pick in the first round." Silver announced the Spurs' selection.

When the audience heard that the Spurs selected a Swiss player, they were quite calm. After all, the Spurs like to use international players, so this is not news.

But Richard's heart was filled with endless waves. Are you kidding me? Popovich chose Capela? !

Last season, the Spurs lost miserably due to inside problems. As a result, they immediately selected an inside player in the draft to prevent Duncan from getting injured again.

It may also be because the Spurs missed Gobert from Ligue 1 last season, so this time they focused on insider Capela, who also came from the French League...

Anyway, no matter what the reason was, Popovich's selection of Capela made Richard extremely painful.

In the blink of an eye, the Spurs assembled a lineup of four young players, and it was not the kind of four young players who were thrown together randomly, but a very harmonious lineup of four young players, playing four positions without any positional conflict.

Coupled with the fact that GDP's combat power is still there, Richard feels that the Spurs are becoming more and more difficult to deal with.

The key is that the Spurs can now free up some salary space, and they still have room for reinforcements.

Such Spurs are too terrifying.

Some fans may think that Capela is just that. Without Harden or Paul to feed him, he is a waste...

In fact, that's not the case. Capela's rebounding alone, not to mention anything else, is enough for him to get a good big contract.

Richard clearly remembers that in the 18-19 season, the top three players in offensive rebounds were Drummond, Adams and Capela.

Only these three players in the entire league average more than 4 offensive rebounds per game.

Among them, Zhuang Shen has the most rebounds, averaging 15.6 rebounds, 5.4 offensive rebounds, and 10.2 defensive rebounds per game.

Capela ranks third in offensive rebounds, averaging 12.7 rebounds per game, including 4.4 offensive rebounds and 8.2 backcourt rebounds.

As for the second-ranked Adams, he is a weirdo. He averages 4.9 offensive rebounds per game and 4.6 backcourt rebounds. There are more in the frontcourt than in the backcourt. Can you believe it...

From this we can also see the value of Capela. With such a rebounding ability, there is no way he can make a living.

Apart from his top rebounding ability, there is nothing special about Capela in other aspects. As for the offensive end, because of Harden and Paul, no one thinks he is very good offensively...

As for the defensive end, Capela's defense can only be said to be slightly above average. Compared with the levels of Jordan and Gobert, there is still a gap.

However, if you can select this kind of player with the 25th pick, the price/performance ratio is completely unspeakable.

Under normal circumstances, the Rockets actually had this year's No. 25 pick, and ended up selecting Capela. Unexpectedly, the Spurs got a big deal now.
