I'm really good at shooting.

In history, Arenas was poached by the Wizards in the summer of this year, and the famous Arenas clause was born.

Although that is a matter in history, what is Arenas' nickname now?

Little Sun Hao!

Before Jordan came back, he thought about trading him, but failed.

Then, the next best thing is to seek a "Little Sun Hao"... Isn't it too much?

The combination of Arenas and Yao Ming?

This sounds very reliable.

With another wave of Hamilton contract renewals and a trident team, the Wizards may not be much weaker than before, and the future is promising!

Of course, Jordan is a person... always makes you feel that life is full of surprises.

There is no need for Sun Hao to help his competitors strengthen, so he will only be a bystander, and then look forward to what will happen in this year's free market.

……

In the blink of an eye, a week has passed, and the 2003 draft is about to begin.

Sun Hao temporarily bid farewell to the training camp, and then flew to New York to join Yi Jianlian.

Such an important moment in Yi Jianlian's life, Sun Hao will definitely not miss it.

The first day in New York was also the day before the draft.

Fu Paulo is also Yi Jianlian's agent now. After Sun Hao arrived, he communicated with him for a while, and learned about Yi Jianlian's current situation.

Neither the No. [-] Nuggets nor the No. [-] Pistons will draft him.

This is basically expected.

The third Cavaliers did not give a clear answer, and no team gave Yi Jianlian a real draft promise.

Compared with Sun Hao at the beginning, the upper and lower limits of Yi Jianlian's final draft results will fluctuate more.

It may be so good that it will be a talent show, or it may take an elevator and fall out of the top ten.

After all, the platinum generation has too many outstanding talents.

"Do you have any regrets?"

Sun Hao looked at his brother whom he had known for five or six years and had the deepest affection, and asked seriously.

If Yi Jianlian waits a year later to enter the league, there is a high probability that the draft will be better than this year.

"No regrets."

"Ok?"

"Because... no matter what, it's better than Brother Hao."

Yi Jianlian said with a smile.

"..."

Sun Hao patted Yi Jianlian on the shoulder, and then laughed too.

After so many years, Yi Jianlian's personality is really much more optimistic than before.

No matter which position is selected, he has reason to believe that the latter will play a better career than in history.

On the draft day, Zhang Weiping and Su Qun also came.

They're really busy in the NBA right now.

And this is the third consecutive year that Chinese players have landed in the NBA.

Although he does not have the ability to compete for the No. [-] pick like Yao Ming, he is at least a lottery.

Talented people come forth in large numbers. These four words perfectly fit the current situation of the Chinese men's basketball team.

For Chinese fans, such a day is simply not too happy.

"I have prepared all the articles about the UAE draft."

Su Qun did not forget to speak.

Sun Hao was full of curiosity. After he participated in the draft, Su Qun's article "The Little Emperor Brings His Talent to the NBA" was thought-provoking.

Even Sun Hao, a traveler, was shocked by the things Su Qun mentioned.

That was an absolutely advanced idea, and it really served as a wake-up call to the men's basketball team.

"What's the name?"

He couldn't help asking.

Su Qun reached out to help his glasses, his eyes were full of pride, and then he said the name of the article.

"Easy to Fly to the Sky".

Chapter 313 The 2003 NBA Draft!

Yi Fei soars to the sky with a pun.

Soaring into the sky, the literal meaning is that the bird spreads its wings and goes straight to the sky, implying to shock others.

Yi Fei Soaring to the Sky also refers to Yi Jianlian's style of play, the yellow race with the best physical fitness, flying into the sky and escaping from the ground.

A literati is a literati, and every word can make people feel cultured.

But whether he can soar into the sky or not depends on the final result of the draft.

That night, fans of each team gathered in New York's Madison Square Garden, far more than in previous years.

With the rapid development of network information, fans' attention to the draft has also continued to rise.

Moreover, the presence of media professionals also broke the record.

This is the serious platinum generation, a historic moment that no one wants to miss.

Before the start of the draft, Sun Hao sat down with Yi Jianlian, his parents, high school and college coaches.

At this critical moment, key people will be present.

There is still some time before the draft starts, and the table at Sun Hao's side is a bit lively.

James saw the person he was going to beat in the future, so he came over to say hello;

Anthony saw the idol he respected and trained with him, so he also came to say hello;

Wade, who played against Sun Hao at the Nike Adidas sneaker promotion in the past, um, let me introduce myself again;

In the end, Sun Hao felt that he was bothering Yi Jianlian's family too much, so he went to the toilet for a while.

As a result, it ran into Dior again.

The little boy who came to the Real Madrid locker room with Parker to find him, also came to participate in the NBA draft this year.

The two chatted for a while.

Sun Hao suddenly felt that the 03 generation really had a lot of connections with him.

When he returned to the little green room and sat down, the draft was about to start.

On the commentary side, Barkley, who has announced his retirement, has already had a lively chat with Kenny Smith.

"LeBron has a 99.9 percent chance of being drafted by Denver."

This time back to the commentary booth, Barkley turned back to the "big mouth" that fans are familiar with.

And such a familiar scene also made fans a little excited.

Cole was paired with Kenny Smith last season, and while Cole's analysis was accurate most of the time, it always felt like something was missing.

Yes, entertainment.

The commentary is the same as the live broadcast industry that will appear in the future, and what you watch is lively.

Professionalism is not the first priority.

Moreover, TNT also put a lot of money into this draft, and they invited Jordan, who was still resting at home, as a guest.

Jordan has just retired, and the topic has exploded. Barkley's return, coupled with his appearance, has made TNT's ratings skyrocket.

After Barkley finished his judgment, Kenny Smith turned around and asked Jordan's opinion.

Jordan's views are very different from Barkley's.

"Melo's immediate combat power is stronger than LeBron's, and his future development will be better. His rich offensive methods will become a more threatening scorer."

Jordan had a soft spot for Anthony.

This is not difficult to understand.

Jordan went to watch Anthony's game before, and the latter's offensive skills are really rare for a college student.

Anyone who has watched his college game will be amazed like that.

"Michael, I have explained more drafts than you, I promise I read more accurately."

Barkley looked confident and tried to convince Jordan.

Jordan's inaccuracy in seeing people is not something that happened after he became the boss.

"You mean I can't see Yao right?"

Jordan followed up with a rhetorical question, leaving Barkley with his mouth open for a long time, unable to refute.

Jordan couldn't help laughing when he saw Barkley's expression.

Sun Hao's previous words really hit the nail on the head. The selection of Yao Ming gave him one more thing to pretend to be, and it was big.

"Okay, let's skip the topic of who is better."

Barkley finally spread his hands directly.

"Kenny, what pick do you think Yi will be drafted at?"

Barkley successfully changed the subject.

Because of Sun Hao, but also because of Yao Ming, the popularity of Chinese players in the NBA in the past two years can be described as a mosaic-like rise.

Yi Jianlian's athletic talent is the best ever, not to mention his strength, but his attention. He is even higher than Bosh and Wade, and is about the same level as Milicic.

"The question you asked, you talk about yours first."

Kenny Smith is really a smart little ghost, a wave of moves, a backhand is a Q.

Barkley pointed to Smith, and finally looked at Jordan.

"I think there's a good chance he'll go to Chicago."

Compared with these two old fritters of TNT, Jordan has almost zero experience in commentary career, and he jumped into it very quickly.

"reason?"

"I hate to say it, but I know Klaus well."

The reason given by Jordan is very simple, but it sounds very reliable.

"I think Yi will be cut off by the Clippers. He spent his high school career in Los Angeles, where he showed the most talent."

Barkley's views once again diverged from Jordan's.

"I chose Yao."

Jordan threw another trump card.
