The Best Choice in Everyone's Heart!
Jerry West's planning is not much slower than the Cardinals'.
But in terms of selection conditions, he is indeed at a disadvantage compared to the Celtics.
In any case, the current Green Team also holds the No. 6 pick, which gives them a significant advantage in winning Lin Tianhui.
If the top five teams in the league give up Lin Tianhui, then Lin Tianhui will indeed join the Celtics!
If that happens, it will undoubtedly be the worst outcome for the Purple and Gold Legion.
Therefore, West is very clear that he must convince the draft teams with the top five picks.
At the very least, he needs to reach a consensus with one of the parties.
Currently, the Raptors and the Grizzlies are his focus.
At this stage, the management of the 76ers is becoming more and more interested in Iverson, and he is basically the frontrunner!
Trying to trade with the 76ers is obviously not an easy task.
And as long as the 76ers don't choose Lin Tianhui, that won't have a significant impact on the Lakers.
What they need is to avoid losing Allen Iverson.
Although previously Iverson was indeed the most suitable candidate in Jerry West's heart, after the NCAA final, only Lin Tianhui is in his heart.
The Purple and Gold Legion has been silent for too long; it is time for them to return to the arena.
Today's league is still dominated by Michael Jordan and the Bulls!
If they want to rebuild quickly, they must have the strength to challenge the Bulls.
Currently, they are secretly vying for Shaquille O'Neal, and from the development point of view, it seems certain that the Shaq can join Los Angeles.
Now, they just need to find a strong partner for him and a reliable teammate, and then they can set sail in the new season!
Lin Tianhui is obviously the most suitable candidate.
No matter what, they must secure him.
The Raptors and Grizzlies are both upstarts in the league, and they are still relatively unfamiliar with some of the league's routines.
Although it is not easy for the other party to change, there is always room for negotiation!
At the same time, Popovich of the Spurs is quietly preparing his plans.
No matter from which angle you look at it, the Spurs are not the city Lin Tianhui yearns for the most, and they will not be the final destination that everyone can anticipate.
After all, the Spurs' record this year is not bad, there is no lottery draw, and San Antonio is also a small market, not as rich as other teams.
To win the prize from the giants and get Lin Tianhui is akin to reaching for the sky.
But Popovich obviously won't sit idly by. Whether he can get Lin Tianhui or not, he has to fight for it.
His strategy is similar to Jerry West's: to focus on the draft and try to get one of the top picks.
As long as they can get one, the Spurs definitely have the potential for a comeback.
Although this is very difficult, challenging work makes it even more exciting!
Many others share this idea.
Pat Riley is also racking his brains, trying to secure the best interests for the Heat.
When many giants join the battlefield, Suns coach Cotton Fitzsimmons is also putting in a lot of effort for the final push.
Previously, he had several communications with Barkley.
The opponent still had the same attitude. If Lin Tianhui can come to the Suns, he will continue to fight here.
If the team does not get him in the end, Barkley will not hesitate to choose to leave.
Although this choice is a bit extreme, it seems reasonable.
In the 1992-1993 season, Barkley led the Suns to the Finals, although they ultimately lost to the Bulls led by Michael Jordan.
But the changes in the Suns after his arrival were obvious to all.
In such a situation, any management with a brain would not let him leave like this!
Moreover, Lin Tianhui's performance in the NCAA is also well known.
If the two can really unite, the combined force might have the chance to challenge Jordan's Bulls!
Now, if Lin Tianhui can join the Suns, the team's future development will definitely benefit greatly.
However, managing this matter is truly a headache!
After all, there are too many teams coveting Lin Tianhui. With their current resources, it is undoubtedly very difficult to secure him!
But this is a struggle that must be faced. For the future of the Suns, this is a step that must be taken!
Clearly, in today's league, there is a lot of competition; everyone is making their own efforts privately and does not want to lose their favored players this year.
But it seems that who will end up with whom can only be known when the draft arrives.
What is certain is that this will be an unforgettable selection ceremony!
