On May 13, this morning, the NBA draft draw was officially held. In the end, the Dallas Mavericks became the biggest winner, and they unexpectedly won the No. 1 pick. In this case, Duke's super freshman striker Flag has great hope of joining forces with Irving and Anthony Davis next season.
The Mavericks can also form a brand new Big Three. If Irving and Davis stay healthy next season and Flag can realize their talents normally, we can say that this team has a chance to break out of the West and even have the chance to win the NBA championship trophy. I don’t know if this is the compensation from the NBA to the Mavericks. After all, the Mavericks sent their superstar Doncic directly to the Lakers this season in exchange for inside superstar Anthony Davis.
In short, Flag has basically locked in Dallas, so the Dallas Mavericks will become the top team in the West next season, but the premise is that Davis and Irving, who are prone to injury, must stay healthy. And the Mavericks also need to adjust their character lineup and strengthen their positions.
For the Houston Rockets, seeing that the Tongzhou brother Mavericks are likely to win a No. 1 pick like Flag, their first round pick has been officially released. According to news, the Rockets' first-round draft pick from the Suns finally won the 10th pick.
Rockets' legendary superstar center Olajuwon did not bring miracles to the Rockets. There were many predictions before that the Rockets' draft pick is guaranteed to be the ninth place in the first round, but now because the Mavericks have won the No. 1 pick, the Rockets' draft pick has also dropped from the ninth pick to the tenth pick in the first round. It can be said that the Rockets' first round pick pick is a bit lower than expected, but the No. 9 draw and No. 10 draw are indeed not much different.
The Rockets did have many outstanding features in the draft, with many mid- and low picks. The Rockets can train players into stars, such as Ethan and Rockets center Alperen Shin-kyung. Both of them were selected in the middle of the first round and eventually became star players. Shin-kyung also became the NBA Western Conference All-Star Center this season. Although it was not as expected, the No. 10 pick can also win a suitable rookie for the Rockets. How do the Rockets deal with this draft pick? There are actually two options. The first type is that the Rockets can use it themselves. After all, what the Rockets lack this season is a stable outside shooter, and they also need a substitute from Van Vreet, who is a player who can hold the ball and pass the ball.
In addition, if both Adams and Langdale of the Rockets leave the team, the Rockets should also take a center to add a substitute to Shin Kyung. After all, both the centers, Langdale and Adams, have expired in the offseason contract this summer, and they have not promised to stay in the Rockets and reach a contract renewal agreement with the Rockets. So using this No. 10 mark by yourself is a solution.
In addition, although the Rockets' No. 10 pick doesn't seem to be a high pick, in fact, this summer after this season can be said to be a year of drafts, and many star-level newcomers will participate in the draft. So this No. 10 draw looks very valuable. If the Rockets are determined to chase a superstar, in addition to some new players and immediate combat players, the Rockets should also send these first-round picks to other teams as bargaining chips, which is likely to include this No. 10 draw in the first round. Therefore, although this first round No. 10 draw is not high, it has a great effect.
