NBA draft absurd history……
In 1947, BAA and NBL, the two predecessors of NBA, jointly held the first draft conference in the history of professional basketball. At that time, professional basketball was not as beautiful as today, and the market attraction was quite limited. BAA and NBL could only operate reluctantly. In order to survive, every team hopes to attract more fans, and the best way to attract fans is naturally to sign excellent players. However, the number of good players is limited. If each team competes with each other, the result must be that the price of the players is too high and neither of the two major leagues can afford it. What should I do? The answer given by BAA and NBL is the joint draft. Each team has the priority right to sign the players selected by itself, and it is not allowed to negotiate contracts with the players selected by the non-team. The draft can avoid player bidding to the greatest extent, so that each team can sign players at the lowest cost. The wishes of the two major leagues are wonderful, but from the first ranking of the first draft conference in history, the professional basketball draft showed an “unreliable” side. 01 the No. 1 yuan ran away and stopped playing Everything is difficult at the beginning. The Pittsburgh Steelers, who ranked at the bottom of the 1946-47 season, won the first number one in the history of BAA (later, it was also recognized as the first number one in the history of the league by NBA), they chose the scorer Clifton mcnelli from the University of Texas El Paso campus. Mcnelli The Steelers were counting on the star player salted fish to turn over. However, mcnelli did not take professional basketball seriously at all and rejected the invitation of the Steelers. Later, mcnelli joined Phillips’s 66-member team of AAU (American Amateur Sports Federation) under Phillips oil company. Mcnelli’s choice is beyond reproach. For basketball players in the 1940 s, AAU is a smarter place than BAA: AAU can play basketball while working, and can have a stable job in the parent company after retiring from the stadium. As amateur players are retained, AAU players are also qualified to represent the US national team in the Olympic Games. As for professional basketball leagues like BAA, many teams are so poor that they can’t open the pot. They say bankruptcy is bankruptcy and they have no sense of security. If you don’t believe it, look — seeing that the champion didn’t want to get into the sedan, the Steel team simply stopped playing and directly withdrew from BAA. 02 can people choose their own team? In the 1949baa draft conference, the Providence Steam Roller team, which held the first prize, chose-Howard Shannon from the steam roller team… Yes, they chose a player of our team, and Shannon played 55 games for Providence last season. Shannon This is not an example. At the same draft convention, Boston Celtics and New York Knicks also chose their own players George Kraft Tan and Harry gallatine, both of whom played at least 20 games last season. The appearance of this wonderful situation is related to the emotional breakdown of NBL and BAA. Due to the cooperative relationship in the college talent show, the relationship between the two major leagues was not bad, but in May 1948, four NBL teams, including the Minneapolis Lakers, were bewitched by BAA and chose to change jobs, the two major leagues turned against each other and launched a fierce battle for University stars. BAA ended the draft of that year in May, 1948. In June, Shannon lost the qualification to continue to compete in the University Arena due to the new rules of the competition area. Kraft Tan and Galatin graduated early after December. Because it was too far away from the draft in 1949, BAA decided to allow the three players to sign in advance to enter the league. Compared with sticking to the rules, it is more important that the fertilizer and water do not flow to outsiders. In order to be fair within the league, BAA decided that the three teams participating in signing the contract should use the pick rights for these players in 1949as compensation for signing the contract in advance. This is the reason why the steam roller team chose its own people with the first prize sign. 03 allocation by trouble? In September, 1949, the Knicks announced the signing of star striker Vance Borila of the University of Denver. The Knicks have not used picks for Borila before. Soon some media questioned: “First, Borila still has one year of college competition qualification, and he cannot enter the league yet; Second, even if Borila can enter the league, should he also join the Denver team according to the regional draft rules (an early draft rule, that is, each team has the priority of college players in the area near the home court)?” Borila Morris BADOIT Love, president of BAA, did not respond positively to this matter. In fact, the content related to Borila’s right to sign has never appeared in any official record. Borila himself recalled later: “To be honest, I don’t know how New York got my right to sign the contract until today.” The only explanation is a river rumor: Ned Elish, the president of the Knicks, once contacted BADOIT and asked him to sign Borila, because “without Borila Knicks, he could not survive, if you can’t live in New York, you have to quit professional basketball.” Although Alish’s words were Hu Jiao, BADOIT love worried that the eccentric Knicks president would really withdraw the team, and professional basketball could not afford to lose the New York team. He could only tolerate Alish’s overjudgment. Ned Alish A year later, the Knicks did not use the picks for Borila as they did when signing gallatine. He became a veritable “non-draft player”. 04 want to choose me? Do you have it? In 1949, BAA’s Indianapolis Jets team and Chicago stag team respectively used the first round of picks to choose the University of Kentucky twin stars-Alex Groza and Ralph Beard. Alex Groza (left) and Ralph Beard (right) The home attendance rate of the Jets team and the stag team is not ideal, and the highly popular grozah and beard can be said to be their straw. However, when the two team principal tried to get in touch with their future stars, they received a bad news-the star players of the University of Kentucky will form a team to join NBL as players and management. At the end of the 1948-49 season, Groza, beard and several college teammates temporarily formed a team to tour in Kentucky, Indiana and other places. On the way, Leo Ferris, vice president of NBL, found the agent of the team and asked the Kentucky players if they would like to form a team to join NBL. They could continue playing together and be their own boss. Groza and others could not refuse such conditions. They borrowed 30,000 US dollars from NBL league and Indianapolis municipal government as start-up funds to form a team called Olympians. This is the first team managed by the players themselves in the history of professional basketball. In August 1949, NBL and BAA completed the merger, the new league NBA was born, and the Olympic team was also retained in the NBA. Their first season was quite successful, with a high attendance rate at home, and every player in the team got rich salaries and bonuses. They not only paid off the loan of 30,000 dollars, but also saved nearly 30,000 dollars in the bank. Grozah and Bilde were both selected as the best team in the league. As for the two teams that selected them before, the Jets team withdrew from the professional basketball field before the formal merger of the league, and the stag team also declared bankruptcy after struggling in the new league for one year. The talent show system was born in bad economic conditions and developed in a bad competitive environment, with strong instability. Even after the merger of the two major leagues, the living environment of professional basketball has not completely changed, and the talent show system still appears from time to time to make people feel “amateur. For example, in 1955, at the request of Philadelphia Warrior boss Eddie Gottlieb, NBA allowed warriors to use the regional selection right in advance to “book” Wilt Chamberlain who just graduated from high school (eventually joined in 1959)-before that, the regional draft is only applicable to college players. Later, NBA continuously improved the market attraction by perfecting the rules of the game, absorbing black stars and strengthening Media Cooperation. The alliance gradually moved from poverty to food and clothing to prosperity. In this process, the talent show system also gradually improved and stabilized, and finally became what it is now. The talent show will be what the alliance operates.
