The perfect life of basketball

Chapter 15 015 The Most Disappointed Probe in History?

After the exchange, the owner of the Bulls took the initiative to show his kindness, invited Ye Yingjie and Bernie Lee to dinner with head coach Thibodeau and old George, and invited him to participate in tomorrow's draft.

Ye Yingjie thought that there was really nothing to do tomorrow, so he agreed.At the same time, he told Chen Xiaoyu about today's situation and tomorrow's arrangements.

Chen Xiaoyu jumped up from her pink bed when she received the news.Then immediately replied.

"Brother Jie, I knew you would be fine! Good luck tomorrow!"

Because this year's NBA Draft was held at the Prudential Center Arena in Newark, New Jersey, which is far away from Chicago, so after dinner in the evening, I took a special plane to New Jersey with the Bulls owner.

After arriving in New Jersey, while Ye Yingjie was lying in the luxury suite of the hotel and chatting with Chen Xiaoyu, the general manager of the Bulls was still on the phone in the office. Offer, in order to improve the team's draft pick, to ensure that Ye Yingjie can be selected.

The time came to the next day, June 6th, because the draft time was from 24 to 7 in the morning, so Ye Yingjie and Bernie Lee had breakfast early and came to the Prudential Center Arena together.

Rumors about the draft were still circulating.

"If Irwin becomes the champion, it will set a record in the history of the two schools. The five schools are comparable to La Masia."

"Quasi second place Williams will become the new wolf king"

"ESPN said that the No. [-] pick has already been determined to hold the lottery. Why is the Jazz so embarrassing?"

The report pointed out that the Jazz is very awkward in this position. If Kanter is not selected by the Timberwolves, then most of the Jazz will choose Kanter.However, the problem facing the Jazz is that Kanter himself is a very talented insider. This is a guy that everyone covets, but what the Jazz themselves need is a point guard.

Therefore, the actual situation in the draft is likely to be that if the Timberwolves select Kanter with the second pick, then the Jazz will pick Williams at the third place.Then, the Jazz still have the No. 12 pick in the first round, which they will use to select Kimmel Fredette.The Jazz uniform must be an embarrassment, and maybe a trade would be a better option.

. . .

The latest heavy news "The Bulls traded up to use the 28th and 30th picks in the first round and the 2012 and 2014 first-round picks in exchange for the Jazz's third pick!"

When Ye Yingjie received the news from Bernie Lee, he knew that his draft was stable, and he was also very satisfied with the sincerity of the Bulls. Next, he will definitely do his best to help the Bulls build a dynasty with Rose.

At this time, the outside world is still discussing.

Because everyone knows that what the Bulls lack the most is a second-position scorer, and this year there is no particularly physically talented second-position scorer. Klay Thompson, the highest scoring guard in the mock draft, is only ranked 12th. I don't know what idea the Bulls are playing.

The owners of the other 29 teams didn't know what the Bulls were thinking, and they couldn't get any definite news after asking around.But even if they get the news, they can't change anything, because the owner of the Cavaliers likes Irving very much and thinks he will be the next little emperor.The Timberwolves hope that there will be a wolf king in the fourth position to lead them out of the predicament.

The time came to 7 o'clock sharp, and the draft officially began.

As in previous years, this year's NBA draft is still divided into two rounds, in which the top 14 picks in the first round are called the lottery area.Draft rounds: A total of 60 picks in two rounds.

Draft process: According to the practice in recent years, every year the NBA draft will invite some rookies who have the strength to be selected in the lottery, and take their families and agents to sit in a special room (commonly known as the small green room) to participate in the scene draft.

When their names were called at the draft, they left the room and walked upstage to shake hands with NBA Commissioner David Stern.In this year's draft, a total of 14 players will be invited to enter the small green room, led by the top picks Kyrie Irving and Derrick Williams.

The 14 players invited to this year's draft are: Kyrie Irving (Duke), Derek Williams (Arizona), Ennis Kanter (Turkey), Brandon Knight (Kentucky) ), Kemba Walker (Conn), Jonas Valanciunas (Lithuania), Kawhi Leonard (San Diego State), Chris Singleton (Florida State) , Tristan Thompson (Texas), Klay Thompson (Washington State), Jimmy Friedett (Brigham Young), Marcus Morris (Kansas), Alec Burks (Colorado), and Markieff Morris (Kansas).

Although there is a quota limit for the small green room, other potential rookies can also enter the draft site to participate in the draft.The difference is that these rookies can only sit in the stands with the fans and wait, and only when their names are called can they go to the front desk to shake hands with the president.At this time, Ye Yingjie and Bernie Lee were sitting in the audience watching the draft.

First, NBA President Stern took the stage to speak!
Some fans at the scene applauded and some booed. Of course, Stern was calm.

After Stern's speech, the big screen gave Irving a close-up shot for a while, and Williams for a while. It seemed that the No. [-] pick was produced between them.

Stern took the stage a few minutes later to make the announcement.

The Cleveland Cavaliers selected Kyrie Irving, a 19-year-old dual American/Australian point guard from Melbourne, Australia.

Owen hugged relatives and friends one by one, then put on a Cavaliers hat, walked onto the stage and shook hands with Mr. Stern.

At this time, the big screen showed the highlights of Irving's college play, and then analyzed his technical characteristics and advantages, and finally released his template as Chris Paul.

Kyrie Irving's father was interviewed by reporters at the scene, and it was really beautiful.

Stern announced on stage a few minutes later.

The Minnesota Timberwolves selected Derrick Williams, a 20-year-old power forward from California.

The fans in the audience gave bursts of blessing applause.

Derek Williams was not particularly happy when he came on stage, because he might have become the No. [-] pick.

After a few more minutes, Stern read from the card.

The Chicago Bulls chose the 18-year-old Chinese shooting guard, Jay, Ye Yingjie!

Wow~ The fans in the audience were confused, and immediately reacted and let out a burst of boos.

There was even a small fan at the scene who threw his bull hat on the ground, stepped on it a few times, and shouted loudly: "We have such a good pick, why should we choose a yellow man!"

There was a moment of embarrassment at the scene.

There are no Chinese in the upper lottery area on the big screen!

At this moment, Bernie Li took out the prepared bull hat from his bag, and Ye Yingjie took the hat from him with a confident smile and stood up.

The camera uncle at the scene quickly reacted and pointed the camera at him.

Ye Yingjie hugged Bernie Li calmly, smiled brightly at the camera, and walked to the stage.

When Ye Yingjie's face was shown on the big screen, many female fans had already calmed down, and many of them had even rebelled from the bottom of their hearts. After all, girls couldn't resist Ye Yingjie's prosperous beauty combined with East and West, and he was confident and sunny. His smile made him look even more charming.

At this time, Huaxia on the other side of the ocean was already boiling. Sohu and Live Bar and other platforms that were broadcasting the NBA draft instantly poured in a large number of fans.

I thought this year's draft was just to watch the excitement, but I didn't expect a Chinese name to appear. Although I don't know if it is good or bad, but if you are a Chinese, you have to support it!Huaxia people protect their weaknesses like this!There are also many female fans who directly swiped the screen, "So handsome, so handsome, I want to give birth to a monkey for him".

Chen Xiaoyu in Polis Songhe Tower had already screamed when he heard Ye Yingjie's name, and Ye Yingjie's acquaintances who were watching the live broadcast of the draft together in the lobby also thought of the burst of applause!
"Xiaojie is doing well, I know you can do it!"

"Xiaojie is great, I will never miss any of your games in the future."

. . .

In an ordinary small apartment in Chicago, an ordinary couple also watched the draft in front of the TV.When Stern announced that Ye Yingjie had been selected, the middle-aged man seemed very excited, "He is indeed the man our little fish likes, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future."

"Then you called to blame her before." The middle-aged woman who looked somewhat similar to Chen Xiaoyu blamed her.

"Hmph, my daughter is still young, and it's not time to fall in love, so no one can come."

The middle-aged woman gave him a blank look and said nothing.

. . .

Ye Yingjie walked to the stage confidently, shook hands with Stern, and faced the audience.

At this time, the reports of the reporters on the scene have already begun to write, and they have already thought of the name of Tomorrow Toutiao.

"The most water exploration in history has been booked?"

"Is it the loss of morality or the distortion of human nature, the Chicago Bulls have embarked on the road to failure in advance?"

"There is another person after Yao Ming, is he worthy of Tanhua?"

In Huaxia, the draft live broadcast room has already been rummaged, and comments are quickly swiping the screen.

The live broadcaster finally found Ye Yingjie's report, which was the news that he won the MOP of the NCAA Final Four two months ago, and he immediately posted the news link in the live broadcast room.

"This Ye Yingjie is very mysterious and deeply hidden. He didn't show much at first, but in the finals he came off the bench and directly led Butler University to comeback and win. It's like a plot in a novel."

In fact, he wanted to say that Ye Yingjie's performance was not enough to get the No. [-] spot, but for his own career, he continued.

"Although we haven't got Ye Yingjie's physical test data yet, it is worth investing in because of his accurate three-pointers and potential to become a defensive expert. The Bulls still have a good eye."

His commentary won a lot of likes.

"Sure enough, it's better to follow the fans." The broadcaster thought ideally.

"After the draft, our front reporter will conduct an exclusive interview with Ye Yingjie. Fans, please don't leave. You can call your friends to pay attention. He might be the next China star." up the ad.

It seemed that Ye Yingjie stole all the limelight, and then the Chinese and foreign media focused on Ye Yingjie. Ye Yingjie and Bernie Li were directly surrounded by long guns and short cannons.
