Chapter 197: SM Combo
The first round of the draft is coming to an end, and this year's draft is really a variety of trades, and the draft pick doesn't change hands frequently.
To sum it up:
First pick, Wizards: Yao Ming;
Second pick, Houston: Kwame Brown;
3rd pick, Bulls: Tyson Chandler;
Fourth pick, Celtics: Pau Gasol;
Fifth pick, Grizzlies: Sean Battier;
Sixth Pick, Hawks: Eddie Curry;
7th Pick, Houston: Eddie Griffin;
Eighth pick, Cavaliers: Desagana Diop;
Ninth pick, Pistons: Joe Johnson;
10th pick, Warriors: Kitson Richardson;
……
In fact, in addition to the lottery show, people like Randolph were interrupted in the first round, and Gerard Wallace and Parker were all at the end of the first round.
Speaking of Parker, Parker was eventually picked by the Spurs as in history.
The first of his little fans to land in the NBA ended up on his rival's team.
A lot of things in the NBA are really unpredictable.
After all, Sun Hao was still in Europe at that time, and he couldn't have predicted that he would enter the Mavericks and play with the Spurs like this.
If you had joined the Spurs in the first place, you would have trained yourself in advance.
In addition to the first round, there are also rookies like Arenas and Oku who can be Taobao in the second round.
This rookie can really play a lot.
It's just that as I thought before, Sun Hao didn't have the right to speak at this time, and could only act as a bystander.
This year, the Mavericks were traded out in the first round, and they only made one choice in the second round.
They spent some cash, traded the 28th pick in the second round to the 24th in the second round, and then drafted a meat shield center, Jalen Collins.
Well, you're not mistaken, it's Collins who will become the first person to come out of the NBA in the future.
Of course, at this time, he was still a fierce muscular man.
The Mavericks chose him in preparation for a possible future against the Lakers.
Of course, not every rookie can play as impressively as Sun Hao, and this is the end of the second round.
The real reinforcement of the Mavericks will depend on the free market in July.
At the end of the draft, Yao Ming didn't go to a place to celebrate with great fanfare like other rookies.
He soon returned to the hotel with a group of relatives and friends.
Sun Hao met with Parker and Lopez, and after saying some words of congratulations, he also went back with Yao Ming.
Back at the hotel, probably still very excited, Yao Ming ran to Sun Hao's room again.
"Brother Hao, there is something I want to ask you."
"Huh?"
Sun Hao looked at Yao Ming suspiciously.
Since the first time the two met, Yao Ming has always been like a curious baby.
"Do you think Jordan wants to make a comeback?"
"Why do you ask?"
Jordan's comeback must not have been publicly announced now, which can be seen from the fact that Jordan would rather be blackmailed by Sun Hao than admit it.
"It's just that when he talked to me, he kept asking me about some of my playing habits, and I thought, he's not playing center either."
Sun Hao smiled, Yao Ming was as thin as him.
Jordan may not be very good at hiding his thoughts.
Speaking of the draft, he also asked Yao Ming about his diet.
Now it seems that isn't asking Yao Ming if it is possible to become stronger and gain muscle?
After all, what if it's a little Peggy Chow?
"I don't know, but I want to ask you something?"
Sun Hao suddenly remembered a question that might have been a question he had to ask now.
Yao Ming was full of doubts.
"I got in touch with Jordan and knew that he was a very strict person for young people, and I mean really harsh, when you make a mistake during the game, he will point it out, and if you make a big mistake, he will even scold you, can you stand it?"
Sun Hao looked directly at Yao Ming when he spoke, and his expression was unprecedentedly serious.
This, in fact, is not something he learned from contact, but a recognized thing.
In history, Kwame Brown performed so well and had a lot to do with Jordan.
It is said that Kobe Bryant is strict, and Jordan is actually not much worse.
A typical example is a story shared by Luke Longley at the beginning.
At that time, Longley had not been with the Bulls for a short time, and in a game against the Pistons, he had to eat and drink inside, and he had 18 points and 6 rebounds in the half.
"You're playing so well, we're going to win a championship, you're an All-Star, why don't you play that every game? I know you have that ability. ”
At halftime, Jordan praised Lang Li in the locker room, gave Lang Li a high-five, gave him a warm hug, and continued to encourage.
"That was the first time I've been complimented, and Jordan doesn't usually praise people very much."
Years later, Lang Li still knows Jordan's eyebrows fluttering to encourage him.
But in the second half, Longley, who ran out of luck, barely contributed.
"I got as many stats in the whole game as I did in the first half."
Longley teased his performance.
However, despite his poor performance in the second half, the Bulls still won a bloodless victory over the Pistons.
Beat the Pistons, the old enemy, and the locker room was jubilant and happy after the game.
At this moment, Jordan walked up to Longley with an unhappy face and said to Longley.
"I'll never compliment you again."
This is Jordan.
A peek at the leopard in the tube, perhaps from this can also be reminiscent of what happened to Brown when he was with the Wizards.
Rookie Brown's strength is definitely worse than that of the peak Longley, and he must have been sprayed more times.
It took some time for Yao Ming to adapt to the NBA, and now he entered the NBA a year earlier than in history.
Sprayed by Jordan, I can really think of it with my toes.
"How can I not stand it, I'm still worried that he won't say it, a player of his level, saying that you are for your good, if you don't talk about you, it is really hopeless."
Hearing Yao Ming's next words, Sun Hao felt that it was right.
Yao Ming's ideological level is high enough.
He suddenly felt that Yao Ming and Jordan could really make something in the East next season.
If you want to know the Wizards, there is also a Richard Hamilton!
Sun Hao cautiously judged that Yao Ming's wave was stable, but the domestic fans were already high.
"I'm ready to grab tickets to the Mavericks and Wizards regular season, and I have to go this time!"
"It's difficult, they play two games a season, but I won't miss the live broadcast!"
"Washington Wizards, my second home team!"
"Think about that picture, Sun Hao and Nowitzki, against Yao Ming and Jordan, I'm already wet!"
"Michael Jordan, Michael Jordan, Yao Ming, this is a MM combination!"
"That's a good name, it's easy to hear!"
"Anyway, what are Sun Hao and Nowitzki called by the Mavericks? SD Combo? ”
“…… I think you're a good fit, stupid. ”
"Forget it, Nowitzki and Sun Hao still have a Nash over there, three friends in the Dallas grass, and three musketeers!"
"Anyway, it's still early to compete next season, I'm looking forward to the Asian Championships now, and I have already said that Sun Hao and Yao Ming will play!"
"Haha, I'm good at this, SM combination!"
"Smack! Just copy it away! ”
……
Fans are still talking about the grand occasion of the draft, but by the beginning of July, Sun Hao has returned to China with Yao Ming.
As the fans said, the Asian Championships will start soon, and they will also return to China to join the national team.
In basketball, run-in is very important.
After returning to China, Sun Hao and Yao Ming separated.
Yao Ming went to the national team to report first, and Sun Hao went home first.
"Son, are you going to stay for a few days when you come back this time?"
Mom and Dad have only been with him for one day in the past two years, and I'm really excited to see him again.
But after the excitement, my mother couldn't help but care about Sun Hao's itinerary.
They know that Sun Hao is now a big star.
"Mom, I'll stay for another week this time, and I've already agreed with that side to accompany you well."
Sun Hao's words are from the heart.
It's been so many years since the crossing, and he has basically treated his parents as relatives.
Counting him, he is either in Europe or in the United States, and the time to spend with them is really a little little.
Take advantage of this opportunity to accompany more and buy something by the way.
"Son, great!"
Sun Hao thought so, but his mother's reaction surprised him a little.
It always feels like something is not right.
Dad also nodded meaningfully, as if it was a big deal.
Sun Hao couldn't guess or guess.
The next day, he took his parents to the mall.
Gold and silver jewelry, jade watches, you can buy whatever you want.
He doesn't usually spend much money in the United States, which must be spent on his parents.
And this money is spent in the country, and he also changes his direction to contribute to the national economy.
Mom and Dad also seem to know that he is a piece of heart and cooperate throughout the whole process.
When they were done shopping at the mall, they found a place to eat inside.
Don't say that my mother is quite emotional, I deliberately chose a Western restaurant.
In this era, Western restaurants are still relatively tall.
And after entering, my parents didn't seem to have any intention of ordering food, just sat down to drink tea and chat.
Sun Hao also followed them, took out his mobile phone to play with the snake, because the seat was right by the window, and he also turned his head from time to time to look at the scenery outside the window.
It was at this turn of his head that he saw a pair of slender and long calves.
It's a pity not to pedal three wheels on this leg.
Moving his gaze up again, the face was also very good-looking.
It's not white, it's a very healthy complexion, and it's very good at looking at endurance.
Beautiful women always make people look at each other twice.
Sun Hao was about to retract his gaze after reading it, but found that the woman had walked forward for a while and entered his own Western restaurant.
After a while, the woman walked directly towards his table.
What's the situation?
Sun Hao didn't react, but his mother had already smiled and went up to greet people.
"Son, come and get to know, this is Sun Jing, just call her Jingjing."
I want to be quiet?
And the surname is Sun, and there is no question of whose surname the baby is named with in the future.
"Smack!"
Sun Hao felt that he was cranky again.
And he also guessed why his parents were so excited yesterday, this was arranging a blind date for him.
From the time my father gave him such a box of things when he was a child, to the blind date for him so early now, the old couple's thinking is really not ordinary avant-garde.
He sometimes even wonders if his parents are just like him.
"Hello, Sun Jing."
Sun Jing smiled and took the initiative to reach out to Sun Hao.
"Sun Hao, this family."
Sun Hao also politely stretched out his hand to shake hands.
Well, the hands are not very slippery.
Looking at this skin color and body type, it is likely that he is practicing sports like himself.
"Jingjing is our city's beach volleyball, and you are also engaged in sports, you have a common topic, that old grandson, go, I still haven't finished reading the shoes just now."
Mom is quite straightforward, and she has already pulled her father to flash people.
"I saw you when I was watching TV, you played in the NBA, the first Chinese to play in the NBA, very powerful."
Sun Jing looks quite talkative.
"It's okay, you still watch basketball?"
It has been many years since he was separated from Joselin, and although his parents arranged it behind his back, he did not resist.
It's not a bad thing to have contact with different women, he can't really be a monk for the rest of his life, right?
"Well, I usually have time to look at it, I don't spend most of my time training, and I also want to be in the provincial team as soon as possible, and then into the national team."
"Good thing, I usually spend most of my time training, do you have any hobbies?"
Sun Hao has already begun to enter the role.
"Hobbies, I like to stay at home and watch movies when I'm not training, oh yes, maybe it's mostly when it's hot when I'm training, and I like to drink ice water, which is also a hobby."
Likes to drink ice water......
After the calf, the almighty hot water also has a day when it is defeated.
Speaking of ice water, Koreans are particularly fond of it.
And this hobby is the complete opposite of him.
One likes to watch movies at home and drink ice water, and the other likes to travel and drink wolfberry tea.
However, Sun Hao felt that the other party was very comfortable talking, and it was completely the kind that could be contacted again.
During a meal, the two also left each other's contact information.
Coming out of the Western restaurant, Sun Hao suddenly felt that he might be about to usher in the second relationship in his life.
Although compared with the original Joseline, there is less beauty, an innocence, but more calm, a truth.
Athletes and athletes should be able to talk a lot.
In the next few days, Sun Hao was either accompanying his parents or asking Sun Jing out to play.
Slowly, he realized that he actually enjoyed this life.
On the court, he was the boy who killed all sides, but off the court, he was just an ordinary ordinary person.
"Recently I bought a new movie from the United States, do you want to watch it together?"
After dating a few times, Sun Jing also sent an invitation to Sun Hao to watch a movie together.
Of course, there are very few movie theaters at this time, and there is nothing to see, which is equivalent to asking Sun Hao to go home to watch it together.
Go to the girl's house, Sun Hao readily agreed.
Don't think about it too much, he just wants to watch a movie together.
After Sun Hao returned to China, he also bought a car and drove Sun Jing to her house together.
On the way, the two also talked about the movies they wanted to watch.
I haven't heard the name of the movie Sun Hao before, but it sounds like it should be similar to what he watched little Nelson's daughter Anna before, a family drama or something.
The name is "American Paradise".
