The relativity of being chosen

The selected players can never act in NBA

Draft has a somewhat complex operation that is worth the trouble to explain: one is an election system that involves to all the smaller basquetbolistas of the world of 22 years with aspirations and certain capacity like entering in NBA.

For that election, the equipment previously obtains an order that settles down of two ways: those that they were not classified for playoffs are drawn for (those of worse campaign have a greater percentage of possibilities) and occupy the first places; the others, those that disputed the postemporada one, are staggered of inverse way to the final position. For example, the Lakers, winners of the title, chose last.

Clear that there are equipment that can have three elections in the two wheels and other one; this happens because previously they negotiated his seats in exchange for players or places in others draft. Once the tax exemptions choose their man, they can exchange it with another equipment or to leave the one continues obtaining experience in another competition. That is the case of Emanuel Ginóbili, that it was taken by San Antonio, in 1999, and who only now, after its successes in Italy, decided to incoporar it. Others, like Marcelo Nicola, chosen by Houston, never were attemped to arrive at NBA.

Equal players by outside draft can be chosen, as it happened with Pepe Sanchez, who was taken later by Philadelphia. Those that they appear in first wheel have high probabilities of playing, because they have guaranteed contract, not therefore those of second, of which a reserve of rights is only made.
