Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    June 28th was destined to be a restless day.  This world is still going on its original track, but now, the arrival of Zhang Weifeng will completely disrupt everything here.  There are people who are called "The Great" and dare to call themselves "The Great" even before entering the NBA. Even the "Chosen Son" LeBron James only received the title of "Kings" after entering the league.  kings is an all-around warrior who has the potential to become the number one player in the league. No one like this dares to call himself the emperor, but some people dare to do so. He is this year¡¯s definite No. 1 pick: Greg Oden. Some say he is the best player in NBA history.  A combination of powerful insiders, a genius rarely seen in decades.  But Zhang Weifeng doesn¡¯t think so. Not everyone can do it, and it really takes a lot of luck. After all, not everyone dares to get into the Blazers¡¯ so-called ¡°center graveyard.¡±  Zhang Weifeng thought more than once whether his career would be "reimbursed" if he went to the Trail Blazers.  He wanted to think about it, but he didn't have the courage to replace Oden, the "league brother".  "Petrie, try your best to win this player Zhang Weifeng. You really can't replace the one you originally planned to select." Petrie left the hotel and was on his way to the event when he heard his cell phone ringing and reflexively put it on  on the ears.  The voice of the boss, Ma Rufu, made him dare not have the slightest idea of ??disobeying him. To put it bluntly, the general manager is a more general manager. Of course you have to listen to whatever the master asks you to do.  Petrie would not be stupid enough to ask why. After hanging up the phone, he started thinking about today's draft. Which team wouldn't want to get one or two potential stocks at this time.  The quality of this year's rookies is very good. Although it is not as good as the 1984, 1996, and 2003 seasons, it is enough to attract the attention of the bosses.  As for other teams, every general manager is busy scratching their heads. The annual draft is also a very important thing in the NBA. Everyone hopes to get great luck and get some leftovers.  Like "The General" Gilbert Arenas, like "The Beast" Carlos Boozer, etc.  Eagles general manager Billy Knight really feels that he has a lot to gain. He has two lottery picks in his hands at once.  Before leaving, the boss naturally had many requests, hoping that he could bring a real star of hope to the team.  Indeed, in recent years, the Eagles have not been a strong team at all. Every time he looks at the poor record, even as the general manager, he begins to feel shameless.  This year, the Eagles, who have two lottery picks, have every opportunity to turn around.  It was time to test his eyesight, and Billy Knight only regretted that he didn't bring a few more eyes with him. Yali Shanda was of course a must.  ¡°There are indeed athletes with outstanding physical fitness in such a big China.¡± After watching the game video sent by head coach Larry Drew, Billy Knight couldn¡¯t help but sigh.  "I'm also betting on the lottery draft. Now, this well-hidden Chinese kid will fall into my hands without any pressure, hehehe." He felt that these young players also made him stand out.  With energy.  Betting?  Which draft is not a gamble? College and career are completely different. No matter how outstanding you are in college, this professional league is not as simple as imagined. This is a watershed for players. With the saying "one day in heaven, one day in hell"  "It's not an exaggeration to describe it.  With so many thoughts on his mind, in a moment, the car slowly drove into Madison Garden.  Los Angeles, Zhang Weifeng¡¯s residence, is an apartment with two bedrooms and one living room.  "Ah~ why are you still sleeping! I thought you had gone to New York a long time ago." Opening the door and looking at Zhang Weifeng lying on the bed, Bell covered his mouth in surprise.  Zhang Weifeng had a bad smile on his face: "Why are you going to New York? You can attract people in Laoshizi's draft! We haven't seen each other for a week, but I came back just after leaving Atlanta." A pink color appeared on Bell's face, which was obviously  I didn't expect Zhang Weifeng to say such ambiguous words.  Turning on the TV, the draft was being broadcast live. Bell walked to the bed and was about to pull Zhang Weifeng up. Before he could reach out his hand, he rolled into bed with a burst of laughter.  "Hmm~" The sounds of the slapstick were naturally ambiguous, but the TV was turned on too loudly, completely suppressing the natural sounds created by Zhang Weifeng and Bell.  In China, some "dedicated" fans stayed by the TV early.  Major sports TV stations immediately broadcast the entire draft process live. This year, three Chinese people participated, which is considered a big news in the sports world, and the ratings are naturally high.  The commentators made long remarks everywhere, and the fans naturally refused to be outdone and secretly competed with each other. They each supported their favorite stars and even pretended to be experts in predicting this year's draft.  Except for Zhang Weifeng, it is estimated that?Everyone who is paying attention is looking forward to the final draft pick.  What?  You ask Zhang Weifeng why he doesn¡¯t look forward to it?  This, this, am I going to tell you he's from the future?  America, the largest city in the world, New York.  It¡¯s approaching 7 o¡¯clock in the evening, and the night has not yet fallen, but New York has already lit up with colorful neon lights.  Madison Square Garden was already in full swing.  "Petrie, long time no see. I heard you gave up on that Chinese boy." Entering the lobby of the theater, Billy Knight immediately saw the General Manager of King sitting in the corner meditating.  "Well, I heard that you are the only one who agreed to try out that young man. How about it? Are you satisfied?" Petrie's eyes shone with wisdom and he said not to be outdone.  "Of course, he is a once-in-a-century genius, hahaha. Fortunately, you gave up on him. I am ready to sign him." Billy was smiling all over his face.  The general managers who had already arrived all around laughed when they heard this. Only a ghost could believe it.  If it was better, it would probably be hidden long ago.  Would you still be so arrogant?  Chinese players, they have the mentality of throwing as far as they can.  However, except for one person, Harris Jr., the Bucks' general manager.  It is said that he has his sights on Yi Jianlian of China¡¯s Guangdong Hongyuan team.  There is also the Lakers, regardless of whether general manager Mitch Kupchak needs Chinese players, but Lakers star Kobe Bryant has expressed his appreciation for the "Chinese Magician" Sun Yue.  So only Zhang Weifeng is left, and most American fans think this is a guy who wants to achieve success in one fell swoop.  Some domestic hackers have compared Zhang Weifeng's image to "Honorary Captain" and "Rugby King Zhang Weifeng". These titles are completely incompatible with basketball, which is already a great irony.  At 8:30, the draft finally started, and of course the person hosting it was David Stern.  Having been the head of the NBA for more than 20 years, he is used to big scenes and is very comfortable hosting them.  "Gentlemen and ladies. Welcome to the scene, to participate in this conference, to witness this important day for these children, welcome Now I declare that the 2007 NBA Draft has officially begun." Of course, Davidster  After Eun-jae finished speaking, and after receiving warm applause from the fans and guests present, he retreated behind the screen on the stage with the logos of the 30 teams printed on it.  The fans at the scene suddenly became excited, because in five minutes, the biggest expectation and the biggest answer will be announced to the world. Will the Trail Blazers choose Greg Oden, a talented beast center that is rare in ten years?  Will select Texas State University's talented scorer Kevin Durant, it will all be known.  Even so, the short five minutes were the most heart-wrenching moment, and the atmosphere at the scene gradually became heated.  "Old friend, do you want to choose Zhang Weifeng?" Petrie remembered his boss Maloof's instructions, and had no choice but to bite the bullet and talk to Billy Knight in private.  With two plans, if the Eagles really wanted to win Zhang Weifeng, he would have to find another way.  After all, the Hawks' No. 3 pick is the biggest obstacle.  Although on the surface Billy pretends not to care, he actually says things he cares about, true and false. This is what general managers are good at playing.  Petrie is certainly afraid that the Hawks will draft Zhang Weifeng before him.  "No, no, after careful consideration, I am ready to give up. Al Horford is our target. The King will not just like Zhang Weifeng. If necessary, I can give up the No. 11 pick." Billy Nye  Te now looks like a real businessman.  Petrie frowned and got another lottery pick?  !  He had already smelled a hint of meaning in the other party's words.  Although after the King's No. 10 pick, there is indeed a great temptation, but he knows clearly that pie will not fall in the sky. Of course, businessmen will always focus on profits, not to mention this man who is known for his careful calculation.  The human spirit.  "What conditions?" Petrie said straight to the point.  "I have prepared the agreement. If you agree, we can trade it tonight." Billy Nate ignored head coach Larry Drew's entrustment. After answering, he whispered to the assistant beside him.  Three minutes later, a transaction document fell into Petrie¡¯s hands.  Frowning, he was confused, completely confused. He vaguely felt that he was being plotted, but now, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and push forward.  Watching Petrie sign the contract silently, and thinking of the conditions he put forward in the contract, Billy Knight laughed strangely.  Suddenly, the scene became quiet, and it turned out that the "head" Stern came out holding a card with the NBA logo printed on it.  There was a pause of 10 seconds, when several people on the sceneWhen he could almost hear the heartbeat of the crowd, Stern opened the card, glanced at the fans in front of him, and slowly told the final answer.  "The Trail Blazers selected Greg Oden from Ohio State University with the No. 1 pick." Oden became the No. 1 pick, and Kevin Durant was selected by the SuperSonics without any suspense.  Then, Billy Nate kept his word. The Hawks really chose Al Horford, and three rookies were released.  However, Petrie suddenly became uneasy. He had a hunch that Zhang Weifeng was very likely to be "hijacked" by someone. The specific person must be one of the 4th to 9th picks.  As his eyes swept across the seven general managers of different shapes at the venue, Petrie became confused and uneasy.  The Grizzlies draft Ohio State¡¯s Mike Conley!  The Celtics selected Georgetown University¡¯s Jeff Green!  !  On the high platform, David Stern walked out again and opened the card in his hand in front of everyone. The look of surprise on his face flashed away.  Of course, this scene will not escape the eyes of those who are interested. The atmosphere suddenly became weird. Petrie immediately clenched his fists, and his feeling became stronger and stronger.  Stern smiled slightly and slowly spit out the sixth answer: "The Bucks selected Zhang Weifeng, a Chinese player from the University of California with the sixth overall pick~" After the words fell, the venue was audibly quiet.  "Sure enough!" Petrie said two words with difficulty.
