Chapter 759
"The Knicks are a great team, and they have Lamar, the greatest player in the league, and I never dreamed of playing with them. Now, my dream has finally come true, and all of this is so important to me! I would like to thank my family, friends, and thank you for being here today to share this joy with me!"
"I'm going to live up to anyone's expectations, I'm going to give 100 percent to prove to everyone that the Knicks are right! Our goal this season is the championship, we have the best coach, the best players, the best leaders, and it's not difficult for us to win the championship at all. ”
After all, Devon Wade is still a young man after all, no matter how good his kung fu is, he has his own wild side. Just got the identity of Tanhua, and he couldn't wait to release the pride of winning the championship to people.
If this sentence were applied to other people, it might be regarded as arrogant and ignorant, but when it comes out of Devonwade's mouth, the situation is completely different.
This is not because of how wonderful Wade's strength is, although his potential and future are optimistic, but not to the point where he can call the wind and rain as soon as he enters the league. The point is that the Knicks now have a team that can fully move towards a championship, and the addition of Wade only adds a little more security to this possibility.
Watching Wade happily sit on the stage with a report similar to an acceptance speech, the hearts of the other team managers were all sour. At the same time, it has also strengthened their determination to expand the arms race without limits!
Devon Wade stepped off the podium, but instead of returning to his seat, he walked straight in front of Lamar and Jeff Van Gundy.
Lamar was naturally very enthusiastic about his new comrade-in-arms, and when he stepped forward, he gave Wade a big hug. And Jeff Van Gundy's attitude is a little intriguing, he still sits motionless, as if all this has nothing to do with him.
Wade saw it in his eyes, and his heart was also sad for a while, he knew very well that although he was a Tanhua, he could enjoy some privileges in the team. But there is another annotation before this Tanhua, rookie! As a rookie, if you don't get the approval of the team's head coach, it's a very cup of things. But Wade has full confidence in himself, and he believes that when the manager sees his quality on the field, he will definitely change his opinion.
History has changed again because of the Knicks, or Lamar. The New York Knicks chose Devin Wade, which was completely unexpected by everyone. Now that the facts have come out, this also makes those team managers happy in their hearts, and the opportunity to pick up the leaks has come!
"Damn! Knicks, these bastards have finally found their conscience and done a good thing. ”
"!Anthony?Chris Posh?Who are we going to choose?"
Happiness came too suddenly, and the general manager of the Toronto Raptors, who held the No. 4 pick after the Knicks, was stunned by this sudden surprise, and then began to be a little overwhelmed, entangled in who to choose.
The general manager's monkey-like performance made Vince Carter, the head of the team sitting next to him, frown, but he was soon relieved. Looking at the hat with the Toronto Raptors emblem in his hand, the half-human and half-god couldn't help but lament in his heart, this may be the last thing he can do for the Raptors.
After living in Toronto for six years, Vince Carter thought he would be on this team for the rest of his life and become a symbol of the team. However, the team's poor record still makes it difficult for him to stay here in obscurity, especially after the team was in a bad position last season and decided to start a rebuild, Vince Carter also strengthened his determination to leave.
Vince Carter knew very well that he would never win a championship with the Toronto Raptors, and he could see that the team's retention of him was only formal. In the minds of many Torontonians, he has actually become a stumbling block to the team's progress due to his constant injuries! He needs a championship, the Raptors need to rebuild, and this is much easier to do.
Devonway's incoherent tirade finally came to an end, and the somewhat handsome rookie burst into tears of excitement at the end. However, it is not surprising that he has such a reaction at his age, after all, Tanhua's identity does mean a lot of things for a young player.
The general manager of the Toronto Raptors temporarily took out an envelope from his pocket and walked to the rostrum with a confused expression.
Originally, the general manager of the Toronto Raptors had Chris Bosh in his envelope, because some media had previously revealed that the Knicks were determined to win Anthony, which also made the Raptors, who held the No. 4 pick in their hands, extinguish the last vestiges of illusion in their hearts. But now that the peak is turning, the heart of luck suddenly hit his head, and after struggling for a while, he decisively gave up Chris Bosh.
Stern took the envelope from his assistant and opened it with a sense of relief. In fact, in his opinion, Anthony is more worthy of the status of champion, but this year's draft is full of surprises, Anthony goes to Toronto, at least he can form a forward combination with Vince Carter to enhance the strength of the Raptors, so that the Raptors will not be left behind too much by other teams at the beginning of the Warring States era.
"The Toronto Raptors have chosen Carmelo Anthony from Syracuse University!"
Neither cheering nor celebrating, Carmelo Anthony stood up with a gloomy baby face and even refused his mother's request to hug him.
Anthony is obviously extremely dissatisfied with his failure to enter the top three, as the biggest favorite before the draft, the champion is not himself, the list is not himself, and even the Knicks, who had a concubine with him before, did not give himself a chance. This is absolutely unacceptable to the arrogant NCAA genius Carmelo Anthony!
"Congratulations, boy, I hope you can show the fans what you're capable of as soon as possible. ”
Stern knew why Anthony had a gloomy face, of course, but he still said his lines stylized.
Anthony, though haughty in temperament, is not as unkind as Lamar. He shook Stern's hand, took the hat that Vince Carter handed him, and put it on his head.
"I'm honored to be on a team like the Toronto Raptors and today is a very big moment for me. I dreamed of getting into the NBA and proving my worth in the greatest basketball league in the world. Now my chance has come, and I will definitely not disappoint anyone, especially Mr. Lamar Odom!"
Anthony's brainless words made everyone present stunned!
Provocation! This is a naked & naked provocation Lamar! Big news, absolutely big news! Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!
After a period of chaos, the draft continued, and it was clear that Anthony didn't have the same appeal as Lamar in the hearts of these managers.
Since Anthony, the big fish, has not been forgotten again, the team that is preparing for the draft next has also pressed the original restless heart.
The most disappointing thing on the scene now is the Miami Heat, who holds the No. 5 pick, Pat Riley's extremely optimistic Devin Wade was unexpectedly cut off by the Knicks, and Anthony was not able to continue his upset.
But disappointment is disappointment, and the draft has to go on. Pat Riley eased his mood and handed over the envelope he had changed temporarily. Although it is a pity that Yu Devin Wade and Anthony missed out, fortunately, God Operator still has the No. 3 alternate character, and this No. 3 character is not necessarily much worse than the first two in his heart.
"The Miami Heat chose Chris Bosh, a power forward from Georgia Tech. ”
Lamar still knows Bosh very well, and the two have already fought in Madison!
Obviously, Chris Bosh still has the strength, but now that the Miami Heat has Alonzo Mourning and Mashburn, there is no shortage of people on the inside. However, looking at Bosh's technical characteristics, it is true that he can form a good pair of interior twin towers with Alonzo Moning.
Next up was Los Angeles Clippers captain Elton Brand. He handed the envelope to Stern's aides and stood directly on the edge of the podium, hat with the Clippers' crest in his hand, and glanced thoughtfully in Lamar's direction. It can be seen that there is still a desire for comparison between him and Lamar, and he wants to surpass Lamar even in electives.
"The Los Angeles Clippers selected center Chris Carman from Central Michigan University. ”
When Stern made this announcement, he finally saw a smile on his face. It's not because he has too much affection for Carman, it's just because in an era when American centers are beginning to wither, Carman's appearance represents the hope of American basketball.
Chris Carman had clearly been waiting for this moment, and he jumped for excitement when he heard Stern read his name. Carman was able to enter the NBA with the No. 6 pick, which he would never have even imagined before. In his opinion, it is a blessing to be selected by a team in the lottery pick, after all, there are too many talented players this year, and it is not as good as Tim Duncan's unique temperament.
Taking the hat handed over by the team's boss Elton Brand, Chris Carman was a little flattered and gave Elton Brand a hug.
"Big man, Lord Baylor and I are very optimistic about your strength, don't let us down!" Elton Brand whispered, and turned back to his place.
The next player to play was the Chicago Bulls, who opted for point guard Kirk Henrich, and it was basically a will-you-go trade. Looking at Henrich's face, you can see that he is willing to go to this emerging dynastic city and feel the charm of the Windy City. 2k reading web
