"National subsidy" No. 1 pick! The NBA officially announced the inside story! The secret operation of the stone hammer is also related to James.

On May 14, the Mavericks won the No. 1 pick with a 1.8% chance at the NBA lottery ceremony held yesterday. The Jazz, Hornets and Wizards, the executives of the team who were badly slapped each other for a moment. In addition, according to US media reports, the Mavericks will not trade the No. 1 pick, but will use him to choose Kubal Flag from Duke University. This result has aroused strong doubts, and many people say it was because the Mavericks traded Doncic to the Lakers (one of the most shocking deals in NBA history), and the league allowed them to draw the No. 1 pick in order to compensate them.

In response to the rumors of "national subsidy" top scorer, the NBA officially released a video of the whole lottery process today, but this "self-proving innocence" action had little effect, and even felt that it became darker and darker as it was. The US media even cited several examples to prove that the league had previously manipulated the draft, and these drafts were all related to James. Including 10 years after James brought his talent to the Heat, the Cavaliers won the No. 1 pick with a 2.8% chance in 11 years, helping the Cavaliers to rebuild quickly and lay the foundation for James' return and winning the championship; the Pelicans traded Davis to the Lakers at a low price, personally prompting James to win the championship in the rematch park. The next year, they selected the Prodigal Zion with the No. 1 pick.

It can be seen that the alliance has learned from the past, and the doubts from the outside world are not groundless.

But there is another thing that makes sense. The Mavericks did not sign the first prize in the first place. They got the Mavericks to win the moment. The arrival of the Mavericks has indeed improved the overall strength of the Mavericks. No one expected that after the transaction was completed, the Mavericks began to suffer from large-scale injuries. For a period of time, they could not even afford to play with six people. Although Thanime, Gafford and others later returned from injury, Irving's seasonal reimbursement made the Mavericks lose the possibility of competing for the championship, and in the end they didn't even enter the playoffs.

Therefore, according to common sense, if the Mavericks did not have these injuries, they might still be in the playoffs, and the Mavericks would not have the only remaining 1.8% chance of signing. The only possibility is that the league has previously given the Mavericks some kind of promise to compensate them at the right time, and this 1.8% chance is just the best time.

Judging from the results, everyone was happy with this transaction. The Lakers have won James' successor, so they don't have to worry about James' reconstruction afterwards (Danime has proved that he can't afford to be the boss for many years); and the league can continue to make Doncic famous after James retires and earn enough ratings; the Mavericks have won the No. 1 pick, and will not only be in the championship window in the next few seasons, but also get the No. 1 pick and rookie bonus; Doncic has gone to a larger market, and its commercial value has risen. With center partners like Gafford and Lefly around him, he can finally return to the power forward position.

Therefore, whether there is a conspiracy theory or not, the purpose of the alliance is achieved, and this is the most important thing.
