10:21pm, 30 June 2025【Basketball】
After the Mavericks selected Flag with the No. 1 pick, they formed the three No. 1 pick combination of Irving (2011) + Davis (2012) + Flag (2025), becoming the sixth team in history to have three No. 1 picks. On the date, many well-known people bluntly said: Who can defeat the starting five tigers of "Three No. 1 picks + Klay Thompson + Levley"?
Next, let's see what achievements have been made by the previous five top three teams!
No1, the 76ers
Coleman (1990) + Robinson (1994) + Iverson (1996) in the 2003-04 season. Due to injuries, no one played 50 games, and only 25 games were played together, with a record of 11 wins and 14 losses.
The 76ers this season have very obvious shortcomings, weak inside and lack of open space, and eventually missed the playoffs with 33 wins and 49 losses. They lost the team after only one year of cooperation. No, there were also dazzling moments. Overtime ended the 12-game losing streak against the Lakers, and the three of them worked together to score 67 points; two weeks later, the three people scored 67 points again, defeating the defending champion Celtics.
No2, the three No. 1 picks of the Cavaliers
James (2003) + Irving (2011) + Bogut (2005) in the 16-17 season. The encounter between these three was even more tragic, because Bogut ended his career in just one minute. It is worth mentioning that Bogut performed at the dominant level in the 15-16 season. Although his offensive performance was mediocre, his defensive performance was irreplaceable. Among the Warriors' four sets of lineups, he had him in three sets, and his defensive efficiency ranks among the top five in the league.
If Bogut did not suffer any injury, the finals showdown with the Warriors may not be destined to be killed!
No3, the three No. 1 picks of the Timberwolves
Towns (2015) + Wiggins (2014) + Rose (2008) in the 17-18 season. Although all three of them have performed amazingly (Downs is extremely efficient in offensively, Wiggins specializes in killing powerful men and Rose's substitute god), the three of them played together only 19 games, barely getting tickets to the playoffs and were swept by the Rockets 4-1 gentleman.
Downs, Wiggins, and Ross are all very talented stars, but this season's Timberwolves are ranked 22nd in the league in offensive efficiency. In addition, Towns has poor frame protection ability, Wiggins has low defensive focus. Ross moves slowly due to injury, and has outstanding talent, but he fights on his own and ultimately failed to achieve great things.
No4, the three No. 1 picks of the Lakers
James (2003) + Davis (2012) + Howard (2004) in the 19-20 season, played in 59 games, scored a record of 52 wins and 30 losses, ranking first in the Western Conference, defeating the Heat 4-2 on the stage of the finals and winning the championship.
No5, the three No. 1 picks of the Nets
Griffin (2009) + Irving (2011) + Ben Simmons (2016) in the 21-22 season. The three of them have not played in one game in the same game because Ben Simmons was reimbursed for the season. Although Griffin played 56 games, he averaged only 6.4 points per game, and his efficiency was extremely low. Irving was suspended due to the "vaccine incident" and played 30 games.
averaged 27.4 points and 6.4 assists per game. In the six games between the end of February and the end of March, he averaged 38.7 points per game, with a shooting percentage: 58% + 55% + 89%. In the life-and-death battle in the playoffs, he efficiently scored 34 points and 12 assists to lead the team to eliminate the Cavaliers!
The team that has three No. 1 picks and won the championship is only the Lakers in the 19-20 season? The answer is: No! In fact, the Lakers in the 1980s had the super three No. 1 picks from Johnson (1979) + Jabbar (1969) + Worthy (1982), and won three championships.
How many championships do you think the Mavericks' three-league combination of Irving + Davis + Flagg can win? Please stay in the comment section!
