Yi Jianlian was the No. 6 overall pick in '07. 12 years have passed, how are the top five all doing today?

Evaluation: not too many injuries, may be the important factor to create Horford's career stability. Currently, Horford is still at the peak of his career and still has a place in the league.

There is no doubt that Durant's achievements nowadays, the same session has long been the back of his head, hard to come out of his right.

During the Thunder's time, Durant has shown himself to be a superstar, leading the team to the playoffs for many seasons. In the fierce competition in the West, the Thunder has always been ranked among the ranks of the teams competing for the title. However, the Thunder's brainless operation, so that Durant can not see the hope of the championship.

Fortunately, in the Warriors period, Durant got the championship as he wished, and two consecutive finals FMVP. 2018-19 season finals, Durant for the Warriors to spell the last part of the force. Inevitably, injuries are as fierce as tigers, and Durant was still unable to save the day even though he was playing with an injury.

In the 2019 offseason, Durant officially announced that he joined Irving to join the Nets. Only, the return is far away. According to expert estimates, Durant's fastest return time should be next season. Absent a season, Durant's performance can still be the same as always, "God of Death" mode, or difficult to return to the peak?

So far in his career, Durant has averaged 27 points, 7.1 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.1 caps.

Evaluation: even if, Durant choose to retire now, the Warriors will not hesitate to retire the No. 35 jersey. Only, this one once rivaled James basketball genius, but also to continue to catch up with the footsteps.

The 2007 first-round pick, now often teased as "water goods first-round". But at the time, Oden did force Durant to become the first runner-up. Oden is a combination of Bill Russell and David Robinson, and has the strength to become a historical center.

Unfortunately, injuries have plagued Oden since he started playing in the NBA. After quitting the NBA, Oden even logged a brief season in the CBA for basketball. But it didn't take long for Oden to say goodbye to the game altogether.

Today, Oden serves as an assistant coach for the Ohio State men's basketball team. Throughout his NBA career, Oden has appeared in 105 games, averaging only 8 points, 6.2 rebounds and 0.5 assists per game.

Evaluation: If the choice again, the Blazers will choose who? That must also be Oden. If not for injuries, Oden is bound to be a dominant center in the league.

1, Greg Oden center

Portland Trail Blazers (now retired)

Greg Oden was selected by the Portland Trail Blazers as a first-round draft pick, and is known as the combination of Russell and Admiral, with top physical talent and excellent under the basket skills, and is considered to be a dominant center of the next generation, and the university one-handedly blew up Noah and Horford is even a classic. But due to injuries, during the five years of playing for the Trail Blazers, only played 82 games.In the 2013 off-season, Oden signed a one-year contract with the Miami Heat.In 2015, he briefly played in the CBA, and on October 28, 2016, Greg Oden officially announced his retirement. The talented lineman, who was ruined by injuries, currently serves as an assistant coach for the Ohio State men's basketball team.

2, Kevin Durant small forward

Oklahoma City Thunder (now playing for the Brooklyn Nets)

Kevin Durant was drafted in the first round, second overall, by the Seattle Supersonics (now the Oklahoma City Thunder), and won numerous honors during the ten years he played for the Thunder, including scoring champion and regular season MVP, and grew up to be a superstar in the league, but never reached a championship.

On July 4, 2016, Durant joined the Golden State Warriors as a free agent. In the three seasons since then, Durant has won two of the three Finals and has been named Finals MVP

On June 27, 2019, Kevin Durant chose not to execute his player option for the 2019-20 season and became a full free agent. on July 8, Durant and Irving signed with the Brooklyn Nets at the same time.

3, Al Horford center

Atlanta Hawks (now playing for the Philadelphia 76ers)

Al Horford entered the NBA through the draft in 2007, and has played for the Hawks, Celtics and 76ers, and has received relatively few honors, but through solid fundamentals has grown into an all-star player, hoping that the 76ers will be able to Round championship dream

4, Mike Conley Jr. guard

Memphis Grizzlies (now playing for the Utah Jazz)

Mike Conley in the 2007 NBA draft in the 1st round of the 4th overall by the Memphis Grizzlies, as a traditional type of guards, Conley's data has been steadily advancing to the point of the NBA's largest contract in 2016 to extend the contract, 5 years 150 million, and on June 19, 2019, Mike Conley was traded by the Grizzlies to the Utah Jazz

5, Jeff Green Small Forward

Boston Celtics (now with the Utah Jazz)

Jeff Green was drafted in the first round, 5th overall, by the Boston Celtics. Then came the Seattle Supersonics (now Oklahoma City Thunder)

Played for the Supersonics/Thunder, Celtics, Grizzlies, Clippers, Magic, Cavaliers, Wizards, and Jazz, and was named to the first-team of the Best Rookie Draft in his rookie season, starting out on a high note!

The 2007 draft conference that year was called comparable to the 1984 Diamond Generation event, when the geniuses gathered, both inside and outside, and even in the international arena, there are a lot of talented potential characters.

Which Yi Jianlian is one of the representatives of the international field, he was selected by the Bucks in the sixth place, and later returned to play in the CBA for various reasons, so now the first five players are living how?

The first and top picks in 2007 were Oden and Durant, but unfortunately Oden ended up exiting the NBA stage due to injuries, and now serves as an assistant coach for the varsity team at Ohio University. And in his college days, Oden was a terrifying presence, known as the combination of Bill Russell and David Robinson when he was in the draft, and was an epic center that could rule the NBA.

But compared to Durant, Oden is now an undisputed waterboy, Durant is a four-time scoring champion, but also got the regular season MVP and two All-Star FMVP, in terms of scoring ability, has come to the level that can be a class with Jordan.

In addition, because of joining the peak of the Golden State Warriors, Durant two consecutive years to get the championship and FMVP, became the history of the top five small forward, now joined the Brooklyn Nets, but because of the Achilles tendon rupture can not be on the court, I hope that he will return to his peak state in the future to continue to fight.

In addition to Oden and KD, the third and fourth Horford and Conley, is still one of the core of their respective teams, Horford in the Hawks played the price, and then transferred to the Celtics, the best amount of results is to play in the Eastern Conference Finals, to join the 76ers this summer, to assist Embry-Riddle and Simmons, two potential superstars shock championship.

Conley in the Grizzlies team dedicated service for 12 years, this year transferred to the Jazz, is also hoping to assist the new star Mitchell, in the Western Conference to kill a bloody road, for the Jazz, he is an important reinforcement, as the team's starting point guard.

And the fifth down Jeff Green is not so lucky, when because and Durant on the same team can not get too many opportunities, so after the continuous bouncing around a number of teams, have not been reused, and now in the Wizards and Wall, Bill **** thing, basically has been obliterated.

Overall, this rookie is still good, just not to the extent of people's ideals, and no capital can be compared with the 84 rookie, should belong to the middle of the road.

The first five draft picks of 2007 were Greg Oden, Kevin Durant, Al Horford, Mike Conley, and Jeff Green, and the next step is to briefly talk about the basketball story of these five players.

Durant is clearly more representative of the 2007 draft class than Oden. Not only has he won two championships and been named FMVP twice, but he's a ****10-time All-Star, a four-time scoring champion, and a member of the "50-40-90 Club" for the 2012-2013 season.

Horford, a two-time NCAA champion in college and an All-Star, has played for the Hawks, Celtics and 76ers, averaging 14.1 points and 8.4 rebounds per game so far.

Mike Conley is a modest player, but in 2016, he teamed up with the Grizzlies to create a "big story": he extended his contract with them for 153 million dollars over five years, making him the highest-paid player at the time. A player who has never been selected for the All-Star game, can get such a generous salary is indeed a little crazy, but for a team have the courage to give Parsons a big contract, so crazy is normal. However, slightly embarrassing for the Grizzlies, this summer they still sent Conley to the Jazz, again with action to prove that their decision was not sensible enough.

Compared to the above four, Jeff Green is obviously a lot of bland, this summer transferred to the Jazz, he has played for eight teams, in these games, he averaged 13.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists.

Finally, Yi Jianlian has returned to the CBA. He played for the Bucks, Bucks, Wizards, and Mavericks, averaging 7.9 points and 4.9 rebounds in 272 regular season games, with his highest single-game point total being 31 for the Bucks.

The 2007 NBA Draft was a big year for me, and there were a lot of potential rookies that year. Yi Jianlian was drafted 6th overall by the Bucks, and the players ahead of him were Oden, Durant, Horford, Conley and Green.

Yi Jianlian didn't stay in the NBA for long and eventually returned to the CBA, so how are the players ahead of him doing now? Most of them are still in the NBA after the last 12 seasons.

The first-place finisher, Oden the Great, was ruined by injuries, and Oden steadily overwhelmed Durant in the draft. Oden was a highly touted interior player who put up dominant numbers when he was healthy. Unfortunately, serious injuries caused Oden to leave the NBA early, went to the CBA, participated in the big3 league, and ultimately returned to school to complete his studies. All things considered, Oden has had the worst career here!

Durant is the most successful, career got almost all the honors. Now a top player in the NBA, the Nets still overpaid to sign him even with his injuries!

Horford can be called the winner of life, career dedicated, into the NBA All-Star, also took a lot of honor. He was teased by fans as a ball blind identifier, his role is not reflected in the data. He is still playing for the 76ers with a good contract today.

Conley is the lowest-profile player here, and he's low-key and powerful, a great point guard. Although there is no All-Star, but he once took the highest salary in the league. Conley is now with the Jazz, launching a championship assault!

When Green first entered the NBA, he was partnered with Durant, and at one point was one of the Thunder Three. Unfortunately, he had major heart surgery, and although he is still playing in the NBA, his role has begun to marginalize, taking a cheap contract.

The NBA is a relatively high elimination rate, the 2007 top 5 in addition to Oden is not playing in the NBA, the rest are still there, they have been competitive, which is a reflection of the strength!

If mention again NBA Chinese players, we will first think of Yao Ming, because Yao Ming in the league stood firm, achieved a lot of honor and status, the best proof is to enter the Hall of Fame. But Yi Jianlian as the No. 6 show in 07 is also in the NBA played a long time, although not as successful as Yao Ming, but just a lot of people remember the name Yi Jianlian.

No. 5 show Jeff Green: Jeff Green and Durant were selected by the Supersonic (Thunder), and Willow composed of the "Thunder Three" prototype, but with the addition of Harden, Green was slowly given up by the Thunder, although later went to the Celtics to play well, can be repeated injuries, and slowly also been marginalized. The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of money to pay for the services you need.

No. 4 show Mike Conley: Mike Conley is the 07 world in the same team to play the longest player, stable performance a team has to be the main player, although not selected All-Star, but the strength can not be underestimated, 2017 signed 130 million high salary is the best proof. Later, small Gasol out of the Raptors, Conley is completely unable to see the hope of winning the championship, so this season was traded to the jazz, the grizzly bears for more than a decade of Conley's loyalty is also considered reasonable.

No. 3 show Horford: Horford career 12 seasons averaged 14.1 points 8.4 boss 3.2 assists, although the data seems to be general, but Horford in the field role is not entirely rely on the data to reflect the role of all the coaches who have taken Horford are full of praise for him.

No. 2 show Durant: Durant is an undisputed top star, is an excellent scorer, because of the desire for the championship 16 years to join the Warriors, three years during the two consecutive championships, if not last year's finals of the injury, is likely to be the three consecutive championships, that is a dynasty ah, and there is no Raptors what happened. This season came to the Bucks, looking forward to an early comeback.

状元奥登：现在联盟都在说恩比德 "大帝"，其实大帝一词是用在奥登身上的，就算现在说起 "奥登大帝 "也绝不违和。 Oden's fame and then the university period has been well known, so many scouts also think he is the next James, but because of the later repeated injuries, resulting in failure to cash in on their own talent in the NBA, gradually to the present no ball to play. This year's first-round pick Zion's stature, position, potential and talent can be completely comparable to Oden, but now the league's worry about him is the same injury, I hope that Zion will not be affected by injuries and illnesses, can be played out it 。。。。
