After the Finals, the NBA will hold a draft meeting with representatives of all 30 teams, NBA officials and players to be selected.

There are two rounds of drafts, the first round of the draft is in the order of the top pick, the list of the eye, the scout and the regular season record from bad to good, and the second round of the draft is in reverse order of the regular season record.

The team with the top pick is selected from all the players who participate in the draft, and the players selected by this team are the "top picks", who are usually the best of all the players or the most needed by the team.

Then the team with the "Eye Pick" is selected from among the remaining players. As you can see, the further back you go, the fewer players you can choose from, and the fewer good players you usually have.

Many of the procedures and rules of the NBA draft, even today, are still like "seeing flowers in the fog" for some Chinese fans. By time, the annual NBA draft can be roughly divided into two parts. The first part is the draft draw:

The NBA has been drawing drafts since 1985, and every year when the playoffs are in full swing, the NBA will convene the teams that failed to make the playoffs to hold a lottery ceremony to determine the ownership of the future No. 3 rookies. In the lottery ceremony, the host will take out 14 table tennis balls numbered 1-14, put them in a container of Qihui, and draw 4 balls from the 14 balls at random, regardless of the order of numbers, a total of 1001 possible combinations can be generated, and remove the 11-12-13-14 combination, there are exactly 1000 kinds left. Before the draw, teams that did not qualify for the playoffs were ranked in reverse order of their regular season record and were given the number of combinations (probabilities) that would win the top pick.

For example, there are 14 teams that did not enter the playoffs this year, and the 76ers, who have the worst record among the 14 teams, will get 250 combinations, that is, they have a 25% chance of winning the top pick, and the Lakers, who have the second worst record, will get 199 kinds of chances, and so on, and the best record among the 14 teams will only have 5 combinations, that is, the chance to win and chain the top pick. After the top pick is drawn, the four table tennis balls are put back into the container to decide the ownership of the No. 2 and No. 3 picks, and then the remaining No. 4-30 picks in the first round and the second-round draft picks will be determined in reverse order according to the results of the regular season.

To put it simply, the probability of winning the champion lottery is related to the ranking, that is, the lower the ranking, the higher the odds. But that doesn't mean that the last place will necessarily get the top spot.

After you draw the top pick, you can pick any rookie who you like to fit your team, such as James, Anthony, Wade in '03, and the Cavaliers got the top pick and drafted James, so he is the top pick. In addition, the champion is part of the nationality, as long as you have a champion rookie is the champion, such as Yao Ming. In addition, the champion is not necessarily the strongest among the rookies, such as Durant and Oden, Portland wanted a center so he chose Oden, and here is a big impact on Oden's injury.

1.At the end of each season's regular season, the NBA conducts a lottery draw in which 14 teams that fail to make the playoffs participate in the rankings of each team.

2.After the finals, the NBA will hold a draft meeting, with representatives of 30 teams, NBA officials and players to be drafted in attendance, and a total of two rounds of drafts will be held.

3.The order of the first-round draft is: the top pick, the list pick, the scout pick, and the team with a bad to good regular season record; The second-round draft picks are in reverse order of regular season record.

4.The team with the top pick is selected from all the players who participate in the draft, and the players selected by this team are the "top picks", who are usually the best of all the players or the most needed by the team. Then there is the list of eye signs, the flower exploration lot, and so on to select people.

NBA Draft Draw.

The NBA Board of Directors met in Salt Lake City in June 1984 when they voted on the order in which first-round rookies were selected for teams that missed the playoffs. This system began in 1985. Prior to that, between 1966 and 1984, the team with the worst record in the East and West would decide who would be drafted first by flipping a coin.

In the NBA Draft draw, the team with the worst regular season record is the most likely to get the first pick, while the team with the best record that doesn't make the playoffs has the least chance. The draw will determine the order in which the first three teams are selected, while the remaining teams that do not qualify for the playoffs will be selected in reverse order of their regular season results.

During the draw ceremony, the host will place 14 table tennis balls numbered 1 14 in a drum-shaped container. Drawing 4 balls from 14 balls at random can produce 1001 possible combinations, regardless of the order of choice. Prior to the draw, teams participating in the draw were given 1,000 combinations based on their regular season rankings.

The four table tennis balls are drawn to the top of the container in turn to form a four-digit combination, and the team that wins this combination will receive the top pick. The four pong balls will then be returned to the bottom of the container, and the previous situation will be repeated to determine who owns the No. 2 and No. 3 picks. If the drawn combination is not within the allocated range, then the draw will be re-conducted.

After the 13 NBA first-round picks, teams that participate in the playoffs will receive draft picks in reverse order of their regular season record. In the second round, all teams will be selected in reverse order of their regular season record.

NBA pre-draft training camp.

Pre-NBA Draft Boot Camp provides a draft opportunity for players to play against NBA players before the draft. The camp was scheduled for practice and games, and the audience included general managers, head coaches, and scouts of NBA teams whose goal was nothing less than to discover new stars. NBA pre-draft boot camp is considered not to be counted by many"Big names"A great opportunity for players to show their talents.

NBA teams sometimes require draft-qualified players to undergo a series of tests before the draft. Players are usually divided into teams of two according to their position. After measuring height and weight, players will take personality tests, basketball drills, and sports tests to judge their abilities.

During these tests, teams have the right to ask questions about a player's character, height, talents and weaknesses.

How teams are chosen.

In the draft, some teams select players on a need-to-be-based basis. For example, when a team needs to improve their rebounding and blocking capabilities, they will choose the right player to fill in both areas.

But others select the best players possible, regardless of position. In the 1998 draft, the Boston Celtics selected Paul Pierce at No. 10 in the draft, a no-brainer they couldn't miss, even though Pierce was in the same position as Anthony Walker at the time.

The first part is the draft lottery: The NBA has implemented the draft lottery since 1985, and every year when the playoffs are in full swing, the NBA will call the teams that failed to make the playoffs to hold a lottery ceremony to determine the ownership of the top three future rookies. During the draw ceremony, the host will take out 14 table tennis balls numbered 1-14, put them in a container, and draw 4 balls from the 14 balls at random, regardless of the order of numbers, a total of 1001 possible combinations can be generated, and remove this 11-12-13-14 combination, there are exactly 1000 kinds left.

The bottom 14 teams (lotto teams) all have a chance to get the top pick, and the worse the results, the higher the chances. If the bottom three are not drawn, then at least the fourth. In the year of Yao Ming's draft, the Rockets used a four-percent chance to draw the top pick and selected Yao Ming.

However, it is rumored that the NBA official manipulated the draft pick in the Stum era, and Stum deliberately gave the Rockets the top pick in order to expand the Chinese market, because Yao Ming said that only the top pick would enter the NBA, and at that time, only the traditional interior team of the Rockets would use the top pick to select Yao Ming.

That's too much, you have to watch the game often to know it.
