"Congratulations to the host for being selected in the 2000 NBA Draft, and the system will be upgraded to version 2.0."

"Version upgrade, 0.1% ......"

"Version upgrade, 0.2% ......"

……

On the way that Sun Hao took out to celebrate, the prompt sound of the system kept coming from his mind.

It felt like a fish spitting bubbles in its head.

He was actually quite curious, why did the system update have to keep prompting the progress, was it to strengthen his relatively weak sense of existence?

As a result, Sun Hao's celebration this night became very weird.

"Congratulations, Sun, now you're a real NBA player! Come, drink! ”

"Version upgrade, 6.6% ......"

"Sun, Benita said she wanted to go for a walk in Manhattan tomorrow, would you come with her?"

"Version upgrade, 6.7% ......"

"It just so happens that Benita is fine, so let her go to Los Angeles with you."

"Version upgrade, 6.8% ......"

……

Just when Brubru was bubbling in Sun Hao's mind, Su Qun finally finished his article about Sun Hao's draft.

As soon as he finished it, he sent it to the headquarters of Sports Weekly by e-mail.

Just like a baby waiting to be fed, the moment he sees **, he starts to suck wildly, and this article is also printed as quickly as possible.

When Sun Hao finished celebrating and returned to the hotel to fall asleep, this article titled "The Little Emperor Brings Talent to the NBA" appeared in front of the Chinese people.

"'I don't have the goals I had when I started as a basketball player'.

When Michael Jordan announced his retirement from the NBA a year ago when he announced his retirement from the NBA, Chicago's second Bulls dynasty came to an abrupt end.

Jordan retired again, but unlike five years ago, he was 37 years old.

Will Jordan come back?

I don't think so, like he said, basketball doesn't challenge him anymore.

The challenge for him, as he said in his retirement declaration, is the challenge of being a parent.

As a result, Jordan is no longer there, and the 'Jordan successors' can't wait, Iverson, Hill, Kobe, and Carter are all ready to move.

Who will be the next Michael Jordan? Or is there a next Michael Jordan?

We don't know the answers to these questions, but what we can see is that when O'Neal swept the Finals with an insane stat of 38.0 points, 16.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 2.7 blocks per game and was elected FMVP, the league will once again enter the era of giants.

In this era, O'Neal, Duncan, and even Garnett and Wallace are the protagonists of the league.

So, like the just-concluded 2000 NBA Draft, four of the top five picks were inside, and eight of the 14 lottery picks were inside.

The big guys are starting to get so popular, regardless of whether they are really talented or not.

As long as you're tall enough, as long as you're physically fit enough, you're going to get a high pick.

It's the NBA's trend, it's the trend of world basketball, and the same, ours.

In fact, long before Jordan retired, we had already started to set off the giant movement, Wang Zhizhi, Battle, Yao Ming.

We keep up with the pace of the times, we have our own mobile Great Wall, and we want to create our own place in the world basketball world.

Then, Sun Hao appeared.

He scored the most points in a single game in a European professional basketball league, won the Champions League and La Liga, and became a double MVP.

This is the first time in the history of basketball that a Chinese is standing at the top of Europe, and he was only 18 years old when he did it all.

And he's a defender, a defender who was 1.75m a year ago and 1.83m now.

Maybe if we dig a little deeper, we will find that he is a so-called short defender who has been eliminated in the country.

He was like a lightning bolt that pierced the sky, brightening the sky and startling us.

At this time, we realized that when we were trying our best to cultivate the tall insider, our little quick, that 'small' was slowly disappearing before we knew it.

Just yesterday, I had the privilege of visiting Madison Square Garden, the "Basketball Mecca", the sacred place of basketball in the world.

When NBA commissioner David Stern read Sun Hao's name, I couldn't help myself.

For the first time, Chinese, Asian, and even yellow guards have stepped onto the NBA stage! And it's the 24th pick in the first round that made history!

When the torrent of big men in world basketball has become unstoppable, he swims against the current and tells us that yellow guards can also play in the NBA!

We should be glad that Sun Hao's appearance has sounded this alarm for us in advance.

At the same time, he also raised a series of questions for us.

Do our guards have the ability to shoot independently?

In addition to shooting, is the breakthrough of our guards enough to tear apart the defense on the big stage?

Is it really that we can only do this with our physical strength and confrontation?

In Europe, Sun Hao did these things and did these things well.

His three-point shots shot through the opponent's nets again and again like a storm, making people's blood boil.

But when the opponent frantically went up to make a three-point defense, his first step broke through and passed the road like the early morning.

He is not afraid of confrontation, he is even good at confrontation, he is a small steel cannon full of momentum.

He refreshed the perception of fans again and again, and he was called the Chinese Napoleon by European fans, which is a title that represents the emperor!

Now, after conquering Europe, he is stepping onto the NBA stage.

We don't know how Sun Hao will play in the NBA, because no one can predict the future.

Just like we don't know if the men's basketball team will be able to achieve another glory on this trip to Sydney.

But we're starting to look forward to it.

Because this is the first time that a yellow person has appeared on the NBA stage.

Every step he takes, he inspires us and guides us in the way.

And I also believe that there will be more and more 'ordinary people' like him who will no longer be given up because they are not tall enough.

There will also be more and more people who will devote themselves to the sport of basketball and create the bottom part of the pyramid.

This is actually the power of idols.

Personally, I prefer to call Sun Hao the little emperor because of what he has done in Europe, and because of his competitive temperament.

That kind of temperament that is devastating in the face of Steve Nash.

The kind of temperament that has never been afraid to fight against Kobe Bryant.

And that's the charm of competitive sports.

Now, we can shout a word.

Little Emperor, it's time to bring the talent of the yellow race to the NBA! ”

Su Qun's article quickly caused a sensation in China.

While fans were excited about Sun Hao becoming the first first-round pick, they also began to think about a question: Can I also play professional basketball?

Sun Hao has done it, why can't I?

He's not taller than me!

It's a completely different feeling from seeing O'Neal and Kobe Bryant play.

One is high, the other is within reach.

Especially for players who love it, but are blocked from professional basketball because of their height.

Maybe I won't be able to play in the NBA after all my efforts, but I believe I can chase my love and my dreams!

……

After arranging for the Chinese men's basketball team to go to the United States to play in the summer league, Li Yuanwei picked up the "Sports Weekly" on the table and read it.

After reading it, he found that he had a little liking for this reporter.

After seeing Sun Hao's rise, his views are also changing little by little, but there are some things he can't say.

Su Qun said all these words for him.

He is now looking forward to the future of the men's basketball team.

Sun Hao plus the current forward and interior line, at most in the next Olympics, the Chinese men's basketball team will definitely be a blockbuster.

And just like Su Qun said, there will be more and more small people popping up.

What Sun Hao did was not just his own business.

"Boom~"

He was thinking about it when there was a knock on the office door.

The secretary pushed the door in.

"Director, Coach Yang Wei is looking for you."

Hearing what the secretary said, Li Yuanwei's brows furrowed.

In the past six months, Yang Wei has called him intermittently several times.

What I want is nothing more than to let him say something and transfer him back to the Guangdong Provincial Sports Bureau.

But he couldn't do that.

Yu Gong, this is not in accordance with the system.

Yu privately, Sun Hao was unable to play in Hongyuan at the beginning, although it was more because of the system, but to find someone to take the blame, it was Yang Wei who couldn't be him.

So he has been avoiding it all the time, but he didn't expect Yang Wei to come to the National Sports Bureau.

"Say I'm not there."

The secretary answered and went out.

After being busy for a while, he got up and went out to do something.

But what he didn't expect was that he was stopped by Yang Wei before he took two steps.

This guy keeps smiling, and he hasn't left yet.

"Bureau Li, I really can't find the next home, you can help me!"

Yang Wei almost pleaded.

Li Yuanwei looked at no one around him and lowered his voice.

"Do you know that Sun Hao was drafted by the NBA?"

"I ...... I know. ”

Even if Yang Wei's news is blocked, it is impossible for him to ignore such a big news as a basketball player.

"If he returns to China and knows that you are in the Guangdong Provincial Sports Bureau, what will he, a Dongguan native, think?"

Yang Wei was speechless.

He also knew that Sun Hao was not a person in the system, this kind of person was the kind of person that the country needed him.

Li Yuanwei's meaning is also obvious, it is impossible for him to annoy Sun Hao because of himself.

Those who are officials will weigh the pros and cons.

Compared with Sun Hao, he is not a fart now.

"Don't come to me again in the future, lest it be spread by outsiders."

After Li Yuanwei finished speaking, he left Yang Wei, who was staying on the spot, and left directly.

Yang Wei was stunned for a while, and suddenly couldn't help but want to slap himself.

However, his thoughts at this time are completely different from half a year ago.

Five years ago, why didn't he think about giving Sun Hao a chance to enter the youth team?

Really speaking, Sun Hao's performance during the trial was also among the best among his peers, and it was also worth a chance.

Even if he had given Sun Hao a chance back then, he wouldn't have let alone the Provincial Sports Bureau, the National Sports Bureau would have entered!
