2006 was actually a well-known year for the draft, as evidenced by several draft prediction sites: they didn't even have a recognized No. 1 pick, and the lotto roster was very volatile.

This is very different from the past few years, where the top pick and the top five picks were basically locked in a month before the draft.

But this year. Some people think Aldridge will be the champion, some people think that the Italian will be the champion, some people think Morrison has a chance, and some think that Brandon Roy, Rudy Gay... There is not a single player in this rookie class who can outperform the talent and power.

So, the competition at Orlando training camp was very intense, like a 'Colosseum' atmosphere.

Every day there is news about players making a name for themselves here. Like what... Rodney Kani performed an earth-shattering 720-degree turn shot the day before. Redick hit 38 consecutive three-pointers in training camp. Brandon Roy completely overpowered Rudy in a heads-up with Rudy Gay. Randy Foye played a great ...... in a three-on-three match.

When all the rookies showed a 100% attitude, the scouts and general managers who came to inspect were quite satisfied.

And as all kinds of news spread from here, the rookie market also fluctuated fiercely.

Sometimes, the same player's draft pick can go up and down a dozen or so rankings in a single day.

However, Bruce Lee was instead an accident. Staying in Los Angeles and away from the center of the storm, he has been firmly maintained at the 15th pick since receiving Kwame Brown's endorsement, so to speak.

This makes the rookies who are scheming and working hard to perform quite unhappy.

Why can he soak in Hollywood female stars and still sit firmly in Diaoyutai? Why didn't he come to the tryout, and he could still dominate the media page?

This sour grape psychology in Li Zhen flew from the West Coast to the South Coast... Reach the top when you arrive at the gym.

And it became a different mentality: I had to teach this kid a lesson in front of everyone.

So, from the first second Bruce walked into training camp on May 17, he was the center of everyone's attention.

And reporters quickly gathered to ask questions about the long-lost hot rookie.

These basketball reporters are very concerned about the recent news from various teams, and hope to get a response from Li Zhen.

Recently, there have been rumors in the Charlotte media that Michael Jordan is doing his best to convince all executives to draft Bruce Lee with the third pick. The San Antonio Spurs team reporter revealed that Greg Popovich has been watching videos of Stamford Crimson games lately and recommends them to the players, and he thinks Bruce Lee has the style of Stephen Nash. Watching him play helps the Spurs limit their upcoming opponents, the Phoenix Suns.

In addition, the latest news from the New York media shows that Isaiah Thomas, who traded the first-round pick (that is, the Chicago Bulls' pick this year) last year, is trying to find a high-pick lottery pick, and some sources point out that Isaiah Thomas is really very bullish on Bruce Lee.

There are also the Houston Rockets, who have tasted the sweetness from Yao Shu and desperately hope to form a Chinese version of the OK group. But various sources show that they are shrewd and picky, and they don't intend to come up with the eighth pick.

"My agent told me that being favored by Michael Jordan ahead of the draft was not good news." Bruce Lee said self-deprecatingly, and he once again teased Michael's draft vision.

"I'm very happy to have Coach Popovich recognise that the Spurs have always been a team I love a lot and their style of play has been very positive for me."

"New York is the city where I grew up, and I lived there for 16 years. If I could go back to my hometown, I think my parents, my friends, my neighbors, and my neighbor's dog would be very happy. ”

"I was recently working in Los Angeles on some non-basketball related work, and I made a music album with the help of Double Stars. Our collaboration was very pleasant and smooth, and soon everyone will be able to hear my songs, which should not be difficult to hear. ”

"I'm still single. My ability to be in love is not much different from my ability to compete for rebounds in the open court. I can only get an occasional frontcourt rebound when my teammates are completely stuck in position. ”

Bruce Lee was unavoidable of reporters' questions. And shows his humor.

But this kind of humor also brings new questions, and the ESPN reporter asked him with a wicked smile: "So, you like the girl who takes the initiative to help you get a seat?" Preferably an automatic transmission that she can move herself? ”

Forehead... This speed is a bit fierce.

The surrounding reporters burst into laughter.

Bruce, the innocent little boy, scratched the back of his head, he didn't even understand what it meant to be fully automatic. He is also considering the advantages and disadvantages of dual-clutch transmissions versus automatic transmissions.

"So, what do you think of this training camp? There is not much time left for training camp now, and before that, there have been many players who have performed well. How are you going to seize the time you have left to show everyone what you're capable of? ”

TNT's female reporter helps the handsome and charming Bruce Lee out of the way, and she doesn't want the sassy bad guys in the sports world to bully Bruce. She got to the point.

"Uh... I'm going to try to be my ......."

Li Zhen's words are not finished.

A black dude ran over and shouted, "Hey, Bruce." NCAA MOP, do you dare to go head-to-head with me? ”

This guy named Shannon Brown is from Michigan State University, and he is looking at Li Zhen with a defiant expression.

Shannon Brown had an extremely eye-catching high school resume, and at that time he was even known as LeBron James for his physical toughness, and was also selected as a McDonald's High School All-Star. If he had announced his participation in the draft that year, he might even have won a lottery pick in 2003, when there were many strong players. In fact, even after he entered college, he was ranked in the lottery every year.

But this year, his market has been very bad. On the one hand, it is because he is a little older, and on the other hand, his performance in the round of 64 tournament is so poor that people worry about whether he will be able to adapt to the NBA in the future. So, his draft ranking has been hovering in the second round.

These days, he's training hard in the training camp.

But... I never got a chance to make a splash. Even in a five-on-five contest, he was taught by Lagarondo from the University of Kentucky. Seeing Lagalondo talking happily with the Boston Celtics scouts after the game, he was anxious. I can't wait to seize the last chance before the draft and make a name for myself.

And today, Bruce Lee is on the field. He knew that many people were targeting Bruce Lee.

So, he was ready to fire the first shot.

However, Bruce Lee only smiled faintly, and he calmly told the eager Xiangnon Brown: "I'm sorry, sir. I have no interest in taking on your challenge. Moreover, the whole world knows ... My value is not one-on-one. I'm a point guard. ”

These words blocked Xiangnon Brown in place at that time.

He was even a little annoyed: Is this scolding me for not being pure enough?

But just then, another voice came: "So, are you interested in a 5-on-5 match?" ”

Li Zhen turned his eyes and a player wearing a No. 9 training uniform walked up. And he was followed by five or six players of different sizes, and it was clear that he had already taken the lead in forming a team.

And, judging by his jersey number. His status in this training camp is not low: the training camp generally gives the jersey number according to the popularity, strength and other aspects, and he can wear the number 9, which means that he is at least the lottery candidate in this rookie.

"His name is Randy Foye, Villanueva's super defender, and he's a very strong senior." TNT's female reporter whispered to Bruce.

At this time, the surrounding players, scouts, and staff gathered one after another.

are all people who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.
