The so-called Wen Wu first, Wu Wu second, people will always remember the first place. Bryant once said that second place means you're the number one loser. In the NBA's previous drafts, the title is always a high-profile existence, and the list eye is close to the existence of the champion, that is, the person who almost reached the top a little. The list is both an honor and a pity. Let's take a look at who is the player who should be the most important player, but is dropped to the top.
When many people see this, they will definitely think of one person, that is, Kevin Durant. Kevin Durant is already in the league's top three players today, a two-time championship winner, and his unsolvable scoring ability is helping him create his own great career. Although suffering from an injury with a ruptured Achilles tendon, no one doubts Durant's combat effectiveness after his comeback, and the nets' top salary contract with both hands is the best proof. Such a Kevin Durant, naturally worthy of the title.
But that year, Durant was just the top spot, and the winner was Auden. Auden did not leave any results in the NBA League, he was selected by the Blazers, played only 82 games, and then left helplessly. In the first season of the Blazers, Auden did not play because of injury, and the second season was also intermittently appeared in injury, until the beginning of the third season, he played a steady 20 consecutive games. In those 20 games, he averaged 11.7 points, 8.8 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game. Many people think it's not a good result, but he averaged less than 25 minutes per game.
The player who should be the most dominant, but fell to the top of the list, sorry, it is really not Kevin Durant. Although Auden's performance in the NBA was not good, at that time, even if the Blazers were selected a hundred more times, the champion was still Auden the Great. It's not that Durant wasn't good, it's just that Auden was so good at the time. It's just that injuries can't be predicted. So, the most deserving leader is not Durant, so who is it?
If he could be re-elected, he would be the champion, and Popovich succeeded in picking up the leak, but later. The answer to that is Spurs Aldridge. Ade was the top pick in 2006, the year was a draft year, and the winner was Andrea Bagnani. Andrea Bagnani's performance is not bad, at least not a parallel cargo, but compared to Aldridge, that distance is far behind. The reason why the Raptors chose Andrea Bagnani as the winner is mainly because Mario Geratini, vice president and deputy general manager of the Raptors, was the general manager of the Italian Club Bernatone, and Banhni played for Benetton before participating in the NBA draft.
If that year's draft could be re-selected, Aldridge must have been well-deserved. It's just that Popovich picked up the leak a little late, Ade was already a thirty-year-old man when he came to the Spurs, and if he had been at the Spurs from the beginning, the achievement was definitely not now. So who do you think is the one who should be elected the most?
