Chapter 195 The 2001 NBA Draft(1/2)

The one-on-one confrontation ends, followed by three-on-three and five-on-five.

Yao Ming's performance is better than one-on-one.

However, Brown also performed well at this stage, and his rebounding and defensive abilities were demonstrated.

After the trial, Jordan chatted with Brown and Yao Ming respectively.

"Mr. Jordan, if you pick me in the first pick, I will never let you down, and I will beat you."

Kwame Brown said that classic line to Jordan.

Jordan was a little surprised, but he immediately smiled.

Look, what a pious and self-conscious, and ambitious child, he is still so young.

He couldn't help but pat Brown on the shoulder.

Yao Ming and Jordan were relatively poor when chatting because his English level was not good enough, and they needed an interpreter to communicate.

But in the end, Mr. Qiao also reached out and patted Yao Ming on the shoulder.

Sun Hao was watching from a distance. To be honest, Yao Ming beat Brown up, just like he beat everyone else in Chicago.

Theoretically, the probability of him being elected as the No. 1 pick will become very high.

But Jordan's reaction is really hard to understand.

After all, Klaus of the Bulls has experience because of his experience, but Jordan cannot figure it out.

"Yao, what did Jordan talk to you?"

When the trial was over and when he walked out with Yao Ming, Sun Hao couldn't help but be curious.

"I didn't say anything, I just asked about my domestic football game. Oh, by the way, I also asked about my diet."

Sun Hao had no idea after hearing this.

Sometimes you really can’t figure out Jordan’s thoughts or guess.

It seems that I really have to wait until the day of the draft to find out.

Sun Hao's training continued in an orderly manner. After mastering the training methods, he no longer had to train with Jordan.

With a systematic ratio of 1 to 3, it is much more beautiful to train.

But at this moment, there was a very interesting rumor.

There were rumors that Kwame Brown wanted to withdraw from the draft, but eventually gave up after his agent dissuaded.

The rumors before the draft are true or false. This news may be true or just suppressed by competitors.

Time keeps passing by, and the talent show is getting closer and closer.

The day before the draft, espn also announced the final draft prediction.

First pick, Wizards: Kwame Brown;

Second pick, Bulls: Tyson Chandler;

Third pick, Clippers: Yao Ming;

Fourth pick: Warriors: Eddie Curry;

The fifth pick, Grizzlies: Mark Gasol;

Sixth pick, Hawks: Jason Richardson;

The seventh pick, Nets: Sean Bathir;

...

The ranking of this issue has not changed much from the previous issue.

Yao Ming is still ranked third and is predicted to be taken away by the Clippers.

This kind of calm looks more like the tranquility before the storm.

Time is coming on June 27th, and the 2001 NBA Draft will be held in Madison Square Garden.

In the hotel, Yao Ming, who arrived one day in advance, was trying to dress up.

Unlike in history, Yao Ming is about to appear officially at the draft.

Moreover, Yao Ming's name is listed in the list of small green houses previously announced by NBA.

Including Yao Ming's parents, his mentor Li Qiuping, who was in the Shanghai team, and members of Yao Zhi's team also arrived in New York in advance.

No matter what pick Yao Ming is selected in the end, this will be a historic moment for Chinese players.

Yao Ming's mother is still tidying up Yao Ming's suit.

Sun Hao stood at the door and watched. He suddenly remembered that he was experiencing similar things during the draft last year.

As expected, all parents in the world are the same.

After finishing the work, the group took a bus to Madison Square Garden.

Zhang Weiping and Su Qun were already waiting there.

"Hey, Yao Ming, I have a red flag. You will stick to the suit later, and wait for the stage..."

Zhang Weiping is really, he needs assembly line operation.

Yao Ming took over the national flag, but did not follow what Zhang Weiping said, but stuck directly to the position of his chest.

The approach is very Yao Ming and looks very domineering.

Before the draft could begin, Jordan came in and cheered the crowd.

The Wizards have the No. 1 pick and Jordan may make a comeback, and the topics have been discussed in the forum.

Of course, journalists will not miss such an opportunity.

He seized the opportunity of Jordan appearing, then went up and asked.

Who will the Wizards choose this year and whether they will make a comeback.

Jordan avoided talking about the draft issue.

However, when talking about the comeback question, his answer made everyone around him excited.

“I’m 50% chance of making a comeback.”

This answer is like dropping a bombshell before the draft.

You should know that the last time Jordan answered was that he would not make a comeback, which means he would make a comeback of 10%, but in a blink of an eye it had become a 50% chance of a comeback!

The probability of this instant is increasing, and it is unrealistic to think that people can guess it!

It can even be said that Jordan is hinting that he is going to make a comeback and everyone needs to be prepared!

Everyone was talking about it, which attracted the attention of a group of people in the small green house.

Sun Hao and Yao Ming turned their heads unconsciously.

But because it is far apart, I don’t know what happened there.

Yao Ming turned around and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Let's relax, and strive for one."

Sun Hao said and patted Yao Ming on the shoulder.

Compared to last year's self, Yao Ming's draft is much more stable.

Of course, he also knew that everything was possible before the draft ended.

He didn't want Yao Ming to be like himself, after being selected, Duffy also said, "Yao, you've been traded."

At this moment, boos sounded.

Stern, come out.

"Gentlemen, ladies, welcome to..."

Stern smiled and waited for the boo to fall, and then began the annual draft opening remarks.

Yao Ming looked really nervous at this time, and his hands were rubbing back and forth under the table.

And from time to time he picked up the "oral liquid"-shaped bottle in front of him and drank water.

These are the natural manifestations of people in a nervous state.

Taking advantage of Stern's recitation of the lines, Sun Hao also turned to look at the reactions of the others in the small green room.

Everyone's expressions were actually similar. The young faces were full of youth, waiting for the NBA to call.

The experience of participating in the talent show as a bystander is indeed different for Sun Hao.

Speaking of which, he didn't go to the Little Green House last year, but this year he came in with the relationship between the players' relatives and friends...

What made him curious was that because of Yao Ming's joining, there would definitely be one person who fell out of the lottery in history, and I don't know which unlucky guy would be.

...

Wizards Draft Office.
