NBA: I Really Have No Talent

Chapter 22 : Your second dynasty is gone!

In the NBA 94-95 season, the Rockets finally swept 4-0 in the finals led by Olajuwon. It was still a sophomore, but the Magic led by Shaquille O’Neal, who had already revealed his talent, successfully defended the title. The championship ends.

The Rockets have won two consecutive championships!

But the limelight was still overshadowed by Michael Jordan.

Even the god of basketball didn’t even make it to the finals!

At the end of the regular season, Michael Jordan, who returned from the line of fire at the end of the regular season, quickly found the rhythm of the game after the initial discomfort and downturn. Did not return to the peak, the final step in the Eastern Conference semifinals, lost to the Magic.

In the game, Nick Anderson, who was responsible for defending against Michael Jordan, said [No. 45 without No. 23 Bull B]’s trash talk was widely reported and spread after the game. It can be said to have caused an uproar, lost the game, and lost people. , Jordan’s comeback was clearly a failure.

Winning the championship was not as simple as he thought.

The impact of this rubbish was beyond everyone’s expectations. After the finals, there were even many people discussing this topic.

There are even rumors that Michael Jordan will re-wear the retired No. 23 jersey next season.

Originally, according to the rules of the league, it is not allowed to wear the retirement number, but if the target is Michael Jordan, whether it is the league, the fans, or the players and management of each team, most of them will be open. Close one eye.

After all, as long as Michael Jordan is still playing in the league next season, the NBA’s ratings and attention will continue to increase, and their benefits will also increase. After all, the NBA is a business league. Money does not make a bastard. No one will have trouble with money.

With the end of the NBA Finals, the draft was put on the agenda immediately, that is, half a month later, in Toronto, Canada, the 1995 NBA draft officially kicked off, even if this year is not a draft year. Because of Jordan’s presence, there is still a high degree of attention.

It can be seen that Jordan did not feel too frustrated because he failed to win this season, smoking a cigar, and his expression was very calm.

At the same time, a rented house in Chicago’s West Side…

“Wang, why don’t you go to Toronto with Kevin? The atmosphere is very lively!”

Watching the draft conference that has already started on the TV screen, Ronnie Fields’ eyes are full of yearning, and he is determined in his heart. He will definitely participate in this event in the future, and he will definitely enter the small green house. He has this confidence.

At the same time, he was very puzzled about Wang Pan’s decision not to go to the scene.

Hearing this, Wang Pan seemed very calm: “It’s impossible to pick me as the top pick. Why should I go there.”

“Forehead…”

Just like Dorn’s reaction when he heard this, Ronnie Fields was also stunned.

This f*ck tone is really big, Kevin never thought of winning the top pick, why does Wang Pan?

At this moment, he really wants to say something to Wang Pan…Brother, what’s your own situation, don’t you order the batch?

Seeing this guy’s face now, Wang Pan wouldn’t know what he was thinking, and immediately cast a deep-meaning look:

“Are you suspicious of me?”

“No…No~”

After several months of scientific and high-intensity training, Wang Pan’s figure is already different from what he used to be, and he can’t see it when he wears clothes. Now in the rental house, with the air conditioner turned on, and only wearing short sleeves, Fields can be clear. See the enviable JI meat texture of Wang Pan.

It’s not the dead JI meat of a fitness person. As a basketball player, Fields knows that Wang Pan’s muscles are extremely explosive, and the opponent is already decarbonized!

Now if the two of them are real people PK, they really may not be able to win, so it is logical to choose from their heart.

“En~”

Nodding lightly, Wang Pan turned his attention to the screen.

His face was very calm, but there was still a little nervousness in his heart. In case the teams didn’t know the goods and temporarily changed their minds and didn’t choose him, then his suspension from university was not in vain, and the rental house during this period was also in vain.

In the process of thinking like this, the president of the league, David Stern, has already stepped onto the stage and presided over the first round of the draft.

The most eye-catching aspect of the draft is undoubtedly the ownership of the No. 1 pick. TV footage frequently scans the top picks in the little green room, as well as the No. 1 picks who hold the Golden State Warriors team representatives. .

The latter is very calm, the former is a bit nervous.

Wen has no first, Wu has no second!

In competitive sports, people always have a great yearning for the first!

Without procrastination, David Stern quickly announced the result.

In the end, the Golden State Warriors did not take a risk. They chose Joe Smith from the University of Maryland who has proven himself in the NCAA!

The top pick was settled, and Fields was a little dissatisfied, muttering: “I don’t have any eyesight, Kevin must be better than this guy.”

“I think so.” Wang Pan replied in the affirmative.

With God’s perspective, he naturally has reasons to say so…

In the following period, David Stern announced the results of the selection of each team in turn. The Los Angeles Clippers, who have the second-most pick, selected the inside player Antonio McDyess from the University of Alabama, and then they were selected. Traded to the Nuggets!

The guy just came on stage, ready to thank the Clippers, who knew he changed teams, he looked embarrassed…

In the subsequent flower show, the 76ers chose Jerry Stackhouse.

Kevin Garnett did not appear in the top three picks, which made Wang Pan and Fields a little disappointed.

Fourth overall, the Washington Bullets chose the future roaring god Rasheed Wallace!

Until the fifth overall pick, the Timberwolves chose Kevin Garnett just like the previous life.

Seeing my friends excitedly expressing thanks to the Timberwolves and yearning for the NBA, I finally did not forget to advertise for Wang Pan in front of the camera. I have to admit that at this moment, Wang Pan is really moved. .

After Garnett stepped down, the draft went on. Bryant Reeves, Damon Stoudemire, Kurt Thomas…they were named by David Stern in turn. , The first round ends soon.

No team chooses Wang Pan.

Although this result has been expected for a long time, but when it does happen, it will still be disappointed.

But he quickly adjusted his mentality. Wang Pan couldn’t help sitting upright, staring at the vice president of the league who appeared on the stage, with a little expectation in his heart. I don’t know which team would be lucky enough to let him join?

With the first pick in the second round, the Pistons chose Luis Rowe.

With the second pick in the second round, the Chicago Bulls chose Doragan Talak.

Seeing this, Wang Pan is basically certain that he should have no chance with the Bulls because the Bulls have no draft rights. The other side chose an inside player in the end, and he was a little bit disappointed.

His performance during the trial training was not bad, and after months of intensive training, he is no longer what he used to be.

With him in the team, the establishment of the Bulls’ second dynasty will undoubtedly be smoother.

Unfortunately, the Bulls did not choose him.

“Since there is no shortcut to winning the championship, I can only apologize, your second dynasty is gone!” Wang Pan resolutely said in his heart.

At the same time, at the scene of the draft, the most conspicuous position of the audience, Jordan and Pippen sat here, whispering exchanges…

“Why don’t you choose the rookie you value with the second pick in the second round, wouldn’t that be more secure?” Pippen asked puzzled.

Jordan smoked a cigar and said calmly: “Since it can be obtained at a lower price, why should we waste it so much?”

“Are you not afraid of him being picked by another team?”

“Don’t be afraid, except for us, no team should choose that kid, oh no, the Timberwolves might bet for their new core, but the Kings who finalized the deal with us have a higher draft pick than them. One, so the Timberwolves are destined to not get him.”

Jordan looked strategizing, while Pippen was skeptical.

But then the development of the matter seemed to confirm Michael Jordan’s words. The teams that had originally spread the idea of ​​Wang Pan had no choice Wang Pan.

Seeing that he was about to reach the Kings draft pick, Jordan had already shown the winner’s smile, but the change appeared at this moment…

When the vice president of the alliance on the stage saw the note in his hand, his face was unabashedly surprised, and he announced loudly:

“Let us congratulate Wang Pan, a high school student from Farragut College, who will be dressed in the new season…”

Hearing this, Jordan’s expression was stagnant. On the other side, Garnett, who was already expecting himself to play with Wang Pan on another team, was also stunned. After reacting, he couldn’t help but explode…

“WHATFK?!!!”
