"Congratulations to the host for being successfully selected in the 2000 NBA Draft, and the system will be upgraded to version 2.0."

"In the version upgrade, 0.1%..."

"In the version upgrade, 0.2%..."

...

On the way Sun Hao took him out for celebration, system prompts kept coming from his mind.

It felt like a fish was constantly spitting bubbles in its head.

He was actually quite curious. Why did the system updates have to keep prompting for progress? Is it to strengthen his weaker presence?

So, Sun Hao's celebration that night became very strange.

"Sun, congratulations, now you are a real NBA player! Come and have a drink!"

"In the version upgrade, 6.6%..."

"Sun, Benita said she wanted to take a walk in Manhattan tomorrow. Do you go with her?"

"In the version upgrade, 6.7%..."

"It just so happens that Benita is fine, so let her go to Los Angeles with you."

"In the version upgrade, 6.8%..."

...

When Sun Hao's mind was just bubbling, Su Qun finally completed his article about Sun Hao's draft.

As soon as he finished, he sent it to the headquarters of Sports Weekly by email.

Just like a hungry baby, he started sucking wildly the moment he saw him, and this article was also published as quickly as possible.

When Sun Hao finished celebrating and returned to the hotel to sleep soundly, this article titled "The Little Emperor Brings Talent to the NBA" appeared in front of the Chinese.

“‘I no longer have the challenge goals I had when I was a basketball player at first’.

After Michael Jordan said such words a year ago, he announced his retirement from the NBA, and Chicago's second Bulls dynasty came to an abrupt end.

Jordan retired again, but unlike five years ago, he is 37 years old.

Will Jordan come back?

I don't think so, as he said, basketball has no challenge for him.

What challenges him, as he said in his retirement declaration, is a challenge for parents.

So, Jordan is no longer there, and the "Jordan successors" can't wait, Iverson, Hill, Kobe, and Carter are all about to move.

Who will be the next Michael Jordan? Or is there another Michael Jordan?

We have no idea of ​​the answers to these questions, but what we can see is that when O'Neal averaging 38.0 points, 16.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.7 blocks per game in the Finals, and when he was elected FMVP, the league will once again enter the Giants era.

In this era, O'Neal, Duncan, and even Garnett and Wallace are the protagonists of the league.

So, just like the 2000 NBA draft that just ended, four of the top five picks were insiders, and eight of the fourteen lottery picks were insiders.

Big guys are starting to become so popular, regardless of whether they are really talented or not.

As long as you are tall enough and as long as you have good physical fitness, you can get high rankings.

This is the trend of NBA, the trend of world basketball, and the same is ours.

In fact, long before Jordan retired, we had already started the Giants movement, Wang Zhizhi, Battel, and Yao Ming.

We keep up with the pace of the times, we have our own mobile Great Wall, and we want to create our own place in the world basketball world.

Then, Sun Hao appeared.

He won the highest single score in the European Professional Basketball League, he won the double championship in the Champions League and La Liga, and became a double MVP.

This is the first time in basketball history that a Chinese stands at the top of Europe, and he is only 18 years old when he accomplished all this.

And he is a defender, a defender who was 1.75 meters a year ago and now 1.83 meters a year.

Perhaps if we go deeper, we will find that he is a so-called short defender who was eliminated by the country.

He was like a lightning bolt that cut through the sky, making the sky bright and also shocking us.

Only then did we realize that when we were working hard to cultivate tall inside, our little quick spirit, the "little" slowly disappeared without us knowing it.

Just yesterday, I had the honor to come to Madison Square Garden in "Basketball Mecca", this sacred place for basketball in the world.

When NBA President David Stern read Sun Hao's name, I couldn't help it.

China, Asia, and even the yellow defender has made the NBA stage for the first time! And he is the 24th pick in the first round of history!

When the torrent of the big guy in the world basketball world is unstoppable, he goes upstream and tells us that the yellow guard can also play NBA!

We should be glad that Sun Hao's appearance sounded this alarm for us in advance.

At the same time, he also raised a series of questions for us.

Does our guard have the ability to shoot independently?

In addition to shooting, is our guard's breakthrough enough to tear the defense on the stage of the competition?

Is it really possible for our physical fitness and confrontation to do this?

In Europe, Sun Hao did these things and did them well.

His three-pointer shot through the opponent's Nets again and again like a storm, making people excited.

But when the opponent went up and made a three-pointer, his first step was to break through and cross the road in the early morning.

He is not afraid of confrontation, he is even good at confrontation, he is just a very energetic small cannon.

He refreshed the fans' cognition time and time again. He was called Napoleon, China by European fans, and that was a name that represents the emperor!

Now, after conquering Europe, he has stepped onto the NBA stage.

We don’t know what kind of performance Sun Hao will perform in the NBA, because no one can predict the future.

Just like we don’t know whether the men’s basketball team can create new glory this time.

But we began to look forward to it.

Because this is the first time that a yellow race has appeared on the NBA stage.

Every step he takes will inspire us to move forward and guide us in the direction.

And I also believe that more and more ‘ordinary people’ like him will no longer be given up because of their insufficient height.

More and more people will also devote themselves to the sport of basketball to create the lowest part of the pyramid.

This is actually the power of idols.

I personally prefer to call Sun Hao by the little emperor because of the things he did in Europe and even more because of his competitive temperament.

That kind of temperament that faces Steve Nash's devastatingness.

The temperament that never fears fighting against Kobe Bryant.

And that is the charm of competitive sports.

Now, we can shout.

Little Emperor, it's time to bring the talent of the yellow race to the NBA!"

This article by Su Qun quickly caused a sensation in the country.

While the fans were excited that Sun Hao became the first first round pick, they also began to think about a question: Can I also play professional basketball?

Sun Hao has done it, why can't I?

He is not taller than me either!

This is a completely different feeling from seeing O'Neal, Kobe and others playing.

One is high above, the other is within reach.

Especially for those players who love but are blocked from professional basketball because of their height.

Maybe I can’t play NBA after I finish my efforts, but I believe I can pursue my love and dreams!

...

After Li Yuanwei arranged for the Chinese men's basketball team to play in the United States for the summer league, he picked up the "Sports Weekly" on the table and read it.

After reading it, he found that he fell in love with this reporter a little.

After seeing Sun Hao's rise, his views changed little by little, but he could not say some things.

Su Qun said all these words for him.

He is now full of expectations for the future of the men's basketball team.

Sun Hao, with his current forward and inside line, at most, the Chinese men's basketball team will make a splash in the next Olympics.

And as Su Qun said, more and more small people will emerge.

What Sun Hao did was not just his own business.
