After communicating with Guo Xu, Wang Zhizhi immediately returned to China.

Guo Xu is already recognized as a genius by the media, and after releasing a song that became popular all over the world, many people said that his IQ was much higher than that of normal people, and he did not only play basketball. Wang Zhizhi didn't dare to disbelieve what this kind of person said.

Whether he wants to fulfill his obligations to win glory for the country, or wants to go back to Yao Ming and Battle as free sparring partners, this ending is much better than in his previous life.

On June 26, the 2002 NBA Draft was held at Madison Square Garden in New York, and Yao Ming became the top pick.

This is actually an unexpected lucky lot, and the person who was the most promising to become the top pick was Jay Williams, Duke University two-way guard, who is 188cm tall and weighs 90 kilograms. He is the undisputed All-American Collegiate Player of the Year, winner of Naismith and Wooden Awards, and was named Collegiate Basketball Player of the Year by the Associated Press.

If other teams draw the champion, there is a high chance of choosing Jay, but the Rockets only have an 8.9% probability of winning the champion, and Yao Mingdang will be stable all of a sudden. Because the Rockets' current core is the backcourt duo of Steve Francis and Mobley, they can't pick another two-way guard.

Guo Xu watched the live broadcast of the draft at home.

As expected, the Rockets selected Yao Ming with the top pick.

Due to the delay in issuing a certificate of approval for Yao Ming's departure from the CBA league, Yao Ming could only see himself as the top pick on TNT TV's TV in Beijing, wearing a rookie hat and giving an interview.

When President David Stern announced the results, Madison Square Garden booed.

Yao Ming is the first foreign champion in NBA history, and the reaction of New York fans is enough to see how xenophobic they are, and even a little racist, as if it was an unforgivable mistake for the Rockets not to choose Americans.

In fact, the Rockets' choice is really smart, even if Jay cashes in on his talent and becomes an All-Star in the NBA in the future, his commercial value and Yao Ming are not comparable.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Yao Ming not only had the potential to become an NBA superstar, but also the Chinese market, and he dominated the Forbes China Celebrity List in 2005-12. Even in the entire world of sports, Yao Ming is often at the forefront.

Yao Ming may not be much in the history of the NBA in terms of wealth and influence, but his appearance directly opened up the entire Chinese market for the NBA! Later, China's NBA fans were larger than the entire American population, and most of the credit for this went to Yao Ming, who was already thinking about how to commercialize the CBA as Chairman Yao at that time.

The Bulls drafted Jay Williams with the No. 1 pick, and all five positions have potential rookies. Although the Bulls won one game against the Lakers last season, it doesn't change the fact that they are a bad team, with a top-five draft every year.

This time, the fans in New York applauded, as if the Bulls had picked up a big treasure and would definitely rise next season.

At this time, only Guo Xu knew that the Bulls chose a "double guard" who likes to ride heavy motorcycles.

In Guo Xu's previous life, because Jay played mostly as a point guard when he was in Duke University, after coming to the Bulls, he was entrusted with the responsibility of point guard, and his performance in his rookie season was not satisfactory, and the Bulls' record continued to be at the bottom, and there was no hope of recovery.

And just after signing a four-year rookie contract, Jay began to get carried away. One night, he drove his heavy motorcycle at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour, directly hit the power pole on the side of the road, and he himself was thrown far away, the result was a rupture of the ligament in his left knee, three nerves in his left leg were seriously injured, and he faced lifelong amputation and even life-threatening danger.

Although his life was saved, he was completely scrapped and bid farewell to the NBA.

Guo Xu's butterfly effect failed to get Jay to join other teams, and whether he will have another car accident depends on his luck.

There was also a change in the scouting pick, with the Warriors not selecting small forward Mike Dunleavy but interior player Drew Gooden. With Sean Battier already on the team, there is no need for a high-pick small forward.

The Nuggets chose Nickroz Scottishvili for the fifth place, an interior player who Guo Xu had no impression of at all, and Stern didn't pronounce his full name, if he added the middle name, he would probably become the first generation of "Brother Alphabet" in the NBA.

The Grizzlies selected Mike Dunleavy for sixth place to bolster the team's weakest wing position. However, Dunleavy is a player who is strong in attack and weak in defense, and he doesn't know what level he can play.

The Cavaliers drafted Dajuan Wagner for seventh place, which was basically a waste of draft picks. The Cavaliers manager has high-quality interior players such as Nene Hilario and Amare Stoudamire, so what kind of vision is it to choose a 188CM scoring guard?

Of course, if the Cavaliers didn't choose Wagner and chose Xiaosi, then the butterfly effect would be too great.

With a strongman like Xiao Si, partnered with Ilgoskas, Ricky Davis, Boozer and others, the Cavaliers will not be at the bottom. The team with the best chance of selecting LeBron James will become the Pistons, and if James plays under Larry Brown and averages five minutes per game in his rookie season, it will be a beautiful picture.

There is probably an episode in the future "Mystery Book" about President David Stern who killed Larry Brown with a sharp weapon during halftime during the Star Weekend and used the rules of the court to clear his name. After the protagonists Cassell and Beckett investigate a group of stars and Nike executives such as James, Iverson, Hughes, and Kukoc, they finally reveal the truth and put Stern and his assistant Adam Silva in prison, and the world is quiet.

The Clippers used the eighth draft pick they had previously traded to select the physical power forward Chris Wilcox. This is Odom's replacement, and the owner of the slam is clearly reluctant to give Odom a high-salary extension, even if the team made the playoffs last season.

The ninth place of the Suns selected the most physical "Little Overlord" Stoudeyer.

The Heat selected forward Caron Butler for the tenth spot.

The overall strength of the players in this draft is not strong, and many people behind Guo Xu are not impressed, but the templates are more scary than the other. When it comes to predicting a player template, the "experts" are purely showing the lower bounds, and there is little time to say accurately.

The most valuable of the last few in the first round is forward Tyshawn Prince, who joined the Pistons at No. 23, and is an excellent defensive player with excellent movement speed, super long arm span, and instant combat power as soon as he enters the league.

The Lakers chose Dandy Cow, a point guard who is 183cm tall and weighs 86 kilograms, at the end of the first round, a small point guard who is very fast. Fisher starts next season and he is on the bench.

No one is optimistic about Dandy Kao replacing Guo Xu, his performance in college is very average, and the gap between the two is huge, but the Lakers can only do this, and there is no salary space to bring in a good guard who has become famous in the free market.

The best player in the second round was Carlos Boozer, who is 206cm tall and weighs 120kg, and the total 34th place was picked up by the Cavaliers.

He's so low because he's older, defensively poorer, shorter, and so on. All low-ranking rookies who counterattack are basically related to these factors.

In fact, Boozer is only 4 days older than Guo Xu, and he is very tough at Duke University, shooting 63.1% from the field to set a school record, and participated in 101 games in three seasons, averaging 14.9 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game.

It won't be long before he benefits from the second-round draft renewal rule.
