Harden is currently one of the strongest offensive players in the league. He was only selected with the third overall pick in the 2009 draft. What kind of monsters are there in the 2009 rookie?
In the 2009 NBA Draft, the brutal power forward Griffin locked the top pick in advance, and when the guards and strikers were not short of people, the Grizzlies chose to give Marc Gasol an inside partner, defensive inside Hasheem Thabeet, However, Thabeet’s NBA road was very bumpy. This year he went to the Hsinchu Siege Lions of the Taiwan P+ League, and Harden was selected by the Thunder in the third overall pick. Therefore, the reason why Harden was selected with the third overall pick was not because of the number of talented players in 2009, but because the Grizzlies, who held the second pick, made a fatal mistake.
However, the rookies of 2009 can be considered as talented. Up to now, there have been six All-Stars, Curry, Harden, Griffin, DeRozan, JRue Holiday, Jeff Teague. Among them, Curry and Harden have won the most regular seasons. Value player awards. In the same year, Tyreke Evans, Rubio, Taj Gibson, Beverley, Patty Mills and other starting-level players entered the league. Looking back, it is not an exaggeration to say that 2009 was the draft year.
