Kobe Bryant through time

Chapter 191
"Then." McGrady's expression darkened instantly, and he looked at Ling Yu with some depression: "Then do I still have a chance to go to the Lakers?"

If you don't say anything, isn't it obvious that there is no way to say it?

"There must be. It's because I want you so much that I don't want to talk to you." Ling Yu was a little dizzy. When did McGrady get so entangled? It doesn't matter, but why are you worrying so much today?It's so unlike him.

"They are just like me. They are also worried that you will be selected by other teams, so they will not talk to you first." Ling Yu didn't care about anything, anyway, he had finished talking, and it was not so short of words. Besides, these What you say is what you think, it's up to you whether you say it or not, so it doesn't matter.

When it was over, Ling Yu was still a little worried, afraid that McGrady would think too much, so he said comfortingly: "McGrady, don't worry, as long as you stay at home, the Lakers will definitely choose you."

McGrady thought for a while, and his eyes suddenly became calm, as if he had already made a decision.

"Okay! Then I'll tell the public that I sprained my ankle when I go back tonight." McGrady was still a little worried, staring at Ling Yu, and said: "You must tell your coach, don't let them think that I have a sprained ankle , If you don’t choose me after the end, it will be bad.”

McGrady's worries are not unfounded. How to say, the outside world predicts that he is a rookie in the lottery zone. Even if he can't go to the Lakers, he will be selected in the lottery zone.However, once the news of the foot injury came out, it was hard to say whether he could be selected in the lottery.

"This bag is on me." Ling Yu patted his chest and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll go there first, and you probably have to go back too. Bye, see you next time."

"Bye-Bye."

The two said goodbye softly, and Ling Yu walked towards West and the others. West just happened to look over and saw Ling Yu walking over with a smile, so he hurried forward to hold Ling Yu, and whispered: "Bryant , do you know McGrady?"

Because before Ling Yu said that he probably knew each other, West was also confused. I don’t know if Ling Yu really knew Maddy. However, seeing Ling Yu and Maddy talking happily just now, unlike the first meeting, Therefore, West also took an extra care.

"I know." Ling Yu suddenly felt guilty. He knew McGrady, and this was the first time he saw a real person.However, Ling Yu's current body has been seen before, so, with Kobe's light, Ling Yu is very happy to say that he knows him.

"Then can you do me a favor?" West is happy now, as long as Ling Yu and McGrady look at each other, then his calculation will be easy.

"What's the matter?" Ling Yu knew very well that West wanted to persuade McGrady by himself, that is, what he had done before.Although he had already told McGrady, Ling Yu could only pretend not to know in order to see and confirm West and Del's views on McGrady.

"Go and ask for me, if McGrady wants to come to the Lakers." West whispered carefully. Basket and water are all in vain, nothing.

"Him?" Ling Yu looked at West with feigned surprise, and said, "He wanted to come, but he was worried that his ability would not impress you. So, I persuaded him to try on another team, maybe it would be beneficial." The results are not yet certain.”

Ling Yu's heart is very happy. If he is really allowed to go to another team, he might be taken down in advance. At that time, you will regret your ignorance and arbitrariness at the beginning.

"Bryant, how can you say that?" West was a little anxious. With such a good seedling in front of him, he didn't care about his own image. He pulled Ling Yu and said hastily, "Didn't you just recommend him?" He, do you want us to give him a chance? Why not keep him?"

West couldn't figure it out, he recommended it so strongly just now, why is it so indifferent now?Could it be that he forgot to take his medicine when he went out?
"He's not doing well, you can't help him." Ling Yu sighed softly, and said helplessly, "I can't just choose him just because I want him to come. If that's the case, I'm too Disregarding the interests of the team."

He didn't know what Ling Yu was talking about, he just wanted to vent the anger in his heart.

"This." West was at a loss for words, stared blankly at Ling Yu, and then at Del, feeling very helpless.West can naturally hear that Ling Yu said these words to himself. His arbitrariness just now, based on some performance, concluded whether a player is worth training, and said that McGrady's qualifications are mediocre. Now that I think about it, this seems to be all is wrong.However, it doesn't mean that Ling Yu is targeting him so much, how can I say that, Del also said those words.Therefore, West said defensively: "Dell just said that McGrady's performance is mediocre."

Ling Yu fainted in an instant. This is a man in his 60s and [-]s, and he still shirks like this. Isn't this looking for smoke?
Similarly, Del also had a look of astonishment on his face, and said in confusion, "When did I say that? You seem to be the one who said those words."

Ling Yu was even more dizzy now, is this the rhythm for the two old guys to fight?Ling Yu didn't want to see such a thing happen, and then he would have to break up the fight among them, what would it look like.So, Ling Yu hurriedly said: "Don't you just want to choose McGrady, if you have anything to say to him, just say it."

What should be said has been said, and the indignation in his heart can be regarded as vented, and Ling Yu has nothing to hold on to.

"That's right, haha." West glared at Del, leaned to Ling Yu's side, and whispered, "Please help me ask McGrady what he thinks, see if he wants to come to the Lakers, and , Is there any team that is particularly fond of him?"

"He is so talented, there must be other teams wanting him." Ling Yu didn't even think about it, why is there no team wanting a talented player like McGrady?It's really abnormal for West, who is usually so wise, to ask such irrelevant questions.

Ling Yu took a deep breath and said seriously: "He really wants to come to the Lakers, and he has been looking forward to joining the Lakers."

"That would be great." West cheered softly, and continued: "Then you can do me one more thing."

"He said that when he got back, he sent a message saying that his foot was injured." Ling Yu didn't want to hide it anymore. He always wanted to tell them about these things. Sooner or later, it would be better to say it now.Slowing down, Ling Yu continued: "Of course, he's just a fake injury, the purpose is to alienate other teams, and the real intention is to hope that you will take a fancy to him and select him at that time."

Ling Yu was stunned by West, and sighed in his heart. This guy thinks more than himself, and he is also more cunning.Fortunately, now that this kid has made such a move, those who are lazy or not are useless at all.

West is still a little contemptuous of such an approach, but in order to get a good seed like McGrady, he can't care so much.

"Thoughtful." West sighed, although there was a feeling of conspiracy, but if he could get McGrady in this way, there was nothing to worry about.

"Okay, it's getting late, I should go back too." Ling Yu waved his hand lightly, walked out with a smile.

What should be done, what should be said, I have done and said, as for the result, no one knows.Although I very much hope that McGrady can come, but sometimes the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. Besides, these things are not something that can be achieved by my own hope, everything depends on West.

Ling Yu naturally thought it through, with a smile, humming a little tune, and left the arena.In the past few days, Ling Yu didn't think about that matter any more. Except for training, he just slept. It wasn't until the day of the draft that Ling Yu got on the plane to New York and rushed there.

The NBA draft is said to be an annual festival, and the degree of attention it receives is no less than the finals and the All-Star Weekend.

At this time, the outside of the clubhouse and the place where there was a live TV broadcast on the street were full of people.Seeing this, Ling Yu felt dizzy for a while. Fortunately, he asked his agent to reserve a seat earlier, otherwise, he would really have to hang out with these people here.

Ling Yu found a place with fewer people, called the agent, and asked about the seats in the clubhouse. He learned that the agent had already prepared them, so he just had to go in, tell the security guards about his identity, and there were still seats. No. Just fine.

Ling Yu didn't say anything, hung up the phone, and walked into the clubhouse without looking back.At this time, a security guard stopped him and said politely, "Sir, do you need any help?"

Ling Yu took off his hat and said with a light smile, "I'm Kobe. Bryant, I want to go to the second floor, row 74, No. [-]."

The security guard naturally knows Ling Yu. Although he is not a fan of Ling Yu, he always pays attention to the NBA. He still knows Ling Yu, the best rookie.In addition, the old captain had reminded him before that as soon as he saw Ling Yu, he had to be politely sent to his seat.The security guards didn't dare not listen to the old captain's words.

"Mr. Bryant, please follow me, I will take you there." The security guard politely made a gesture of invitation.Ling Yu was not polite at all, and walked straight forward, and the security guard also hurried to the side and led him politely.

Sure enough, he knew the way. After a while, Ling Yu found his place, and the security guard also left.

"There are quite a lot of people here." Ling Yu looked around and sighed.

At this time, on the stage in the middle of the auditorium, David.Stern walked up calmly.
