725. Join the national team and the draft that goes the most unnoticed!

"Ah...... Woowoo...... Little love! I'll get up right away!"

Liu Ren simply felt that this cute big Lori was getting more and more "excessive",It seems that the last time I thought the effect was good,After Liu Ren finished the season,,The way the big Lori asked him to get up has become a "murder" love hug......

Although Liu Ren struggled every time, he did not say that it was forbidden......

This mouth shouts don't want it, but the body is still very honest......

I just wanted to tell Da Lori to go out quickly, otherwise I would see a discordant picture when I changed my clothes, but Liu Ren suddenly thought of a question, today...... I don't think there's anything to do!

"Xiao Ai, is there any big news happening today?" Liu Ren asked strangely.

"Big news? No, there hasn't been any big news since Owen was clamoring to leave the team. Big Lori's eyes went up, obviously trying to remember.

Liu Ren was angry, got up and picked up the big Lori's and pinched it wildly: "It's okay, you told me to get up so early and sleep lazily in the offseason, is it easy!" ”

"Yes...... Something's up! Otherwise, Xiao Ai will keep watching the master sleep, and will not wake up the master. Big Lori was rubbing her face and couldn't speak clearly.

"Something? Uh, haha, what happened earlier...... By the way, what do you say about me sleeping? Liu Ren was a little guilty for inexplicably bullying Big Lori, but it felt like something was wrong.

"Xiao Ai's matter is not important, just now when Nini went out, I asked the master to wake up early, and I received a notice this morning, it seems that Yao Ming from the center is coming to Los Angeles to talk to you about joining the national team in this year's Olympic Games." Big Lori tried hard to recall, but she still couldn't remember what the center was.

However, language has the advantage of being able to guess without having to finish speaking.

Basket Tube Center! National! Yao!

Liu Ren instantly put aside what he felt was wrong before!

Serving the country, if you have the opportunity, and you are not destined to be pitted, I believe that every countryman will choose to do so!

Liu Ren is the same!

But he had a confrontation with Cheng Lanxin, the owner of the basketball center, in 2013, and he thought that he had no way to join the national team, and he never paid attention to it.

Cheng Lanxin has been the director of the basketball center for half his life, and he has used a few words to describe his great work performance, which can be described as a stale, flattering, obedient, despicable and shameless, not enterprising, and without any achievements, in addition to prohibiting this from joining the national team and forcing that to join the national team, Chinese basketball has hardly made any significant progress in decades, but the world ranking has not even been able to keep the first place in Asia after Da Yao, Wang Zhizhi, Battle and others have retired.

But this year, Liu Ren actually saw a little turning point, that is, Cheng Lanxin was thoroughly investigated in the great domestic tiger fighting operation, and Yao Ming, who has always been the biggest pursuit of changing domestic basketball, came to power, giving Liu Ren the opportunity to return to the national team, and domestic fans are calling for Liu Ren to be recalled more and more.

But due to the domestic system problems and the face problems of officials, Liu Ren does not think that those so-called executives of the basketball center will let him enter the national team, and even if Yao Ming is the new director of the basketball center, who knows that if he enters the big dye vat of officialdom, who can guarantee that he can do things according to his own ideas?

However, this time unexpectedly, Yao Ming actually personally recruited Liu Ren to join the national team, and he came to Los Angeles!

And it can be seen that Yao Ming came to Los Angeles in a hurry after confirming this matter, and he didn't even give Liu Ren time to prepare in advance.

Liu Ren excitedly hugged the big Lori and spun around twice in the air, which made the big Lori look confused, isn't it just to join the national team? Isn't it natural that his own master is the strongest basketball player in China?

As a member of a developed country, Lori certainly can't understand what it means to be a person in a developing social country......

……

……

Every time I look at it, Liu Ren feels that Yao Ming is really tall, Porzingis is tall enough, Yao Ming is taller than Porzingis, and bigger, and compared to the horizontal area when he retired, it is simply three or four five six seven or eight laps larger.

Now Yao Ming is completely smiling like a big fat man of four hundred pounds.

Yao Ming had a smile on his face: "Boss, we solemnly invite you to join the national team, although we had some unpleasant things before, but you know, sometimes some things that have happened are not beyond the control of those of us who come after." Now that everything is getting better in domestic basketball, in order to bring qualitative change to the men's basketball team and let people know that our country's basketball can have a better future, I hope you can come back and lead us to the Rio Olympics and lead us to victory......"

"Okay, I promised." Liu Ren didn't hesitate.

However, Yao Ming didn't seem to hear clearly: "Boss, I know that I rejected you to join before, and now I invite you again...... What? Promised? ”

It's too simple and decisive!

Doesn't it mean that this young man has a bad temper, a bad personality, and everyone is a famous thorn in the face? He was also banned for more than a month during the regular season......

"There's nothing to hesitate about, when is the training camp? We haven't had a good time this year, you know, we're too strong. ”

Yao Ming felt a little weird, this kind of player who is full of enthusiasm for the game has not been seen in China for a long time.

There is a talented center named Han Dejun in China, when Yao Ming saw that he was still in the youth team, that performance made Yao Ming feel that his position as the first person in domestic basketball was soon lost.

Then I watched Han Dejun become a fat man of more than 300 pounds after entering the CBA, and he lay down and didn't move after running a few kilometers in the national team training camp.

The current CBA players are also quite profitable, often millions a year, under the education of money first in China, who is willing to play well, and when it comes to signing a contract, this is the biggest feeling Yao Ming has after returning to China.

It may be that after staying in China for a few more years, Yao Ming now feels that Liu Ren is like a fresh and refined lotus.

One wanted to beg, the other wanted to join, and the two hit it off.

"Training camp, maybe the boss you won't be with the domestic players, you may have to train alone with a few players at that time." Yao Ming said this with a wry smile and explained: "The level of domestic players is too far behind yours, except for a very few who can have the strength to partner with you, others estimate that you will train their self-confidence, and you are equivalent to the CBA's foreign aid for our national team." ”

"......" Liu Ren said that it was his turn to feel weird and become the 'foreign aid' of the national team?

……

……

Yao Ming is also very busy as the president of the Blue Association, and after coming to Los Angeles to sign an agreement with Liu Ren to return to the national team, he will return to China to prepare for the summer Olympics.

As we all know, everything in China is troublesome, and you need to stamp a bunch of stamps to do a thing......

The so-called agreement, that is, to sign some terms, and then to negotiate with Nike and other Liu Ren's sponsors, for example, the national team has its own sponsors, jerseys, shoes, and even drinks and towels are sponsored by themselves, which need to be negotiated, but this situation is generally passed, because the American team is the same, this is an opportunity for the Blue Association to make money, after all, it is self-financing.

And joining the national team is definitely a great increase in popularity in their own country for the players, and player sponsors such as Nike and Adi will not refuse, it seems that they suffered a little loss at the time, but after that it was all a benefit.

And Liu Ren got a monthly allowance of 7,706 yuan during his participation in the national team, why is it 7,706 yuan, because this is the average salary in Beijing this year......

Liu Ren's entry into the national team was completed in such a calm manner, just signed an agreement, the official 12-man roster was not announced until the end of July, and the Blue Association invited thirty or forty people to be eliminated from the training camp in batches, and the real national team squad was officially determined.

On the NBA side, after the Durant trade and Irving's fuss, there was a temporary lull.

It's weird enough that there have been so many pre-draft trades this year, and there should have been very few picks traded in such a small year of the draft, and it's just a return to normal.

Taking a closer look at those trades, in fact, except for the Lakers' request for the first pick and the scout, the other deals about draft picks actually have little to do with the draft pick itself, they are all about the transfer of players, and the draft pick is just an add-on, or a draft pick must be paid in order to close the deal as soon as possible.

In the next few days, it was basically a discussion about Durant and Irving, and by the way, some of Irving's dissatisfaction with James's return to the Cavaliers, Westbrook did not comment on Durant's departure and said that he did not know this person, and then renewed his contract with the Thunder for three years and 80 million to express his loyalty.

Then there's some miscellaneous and all sorts of lace reports, and then there's speculation about where Irving will go, or the Cavaliers will stay up and not trade, and finally civil strife or something.

A few days flew by, and on June 26, the 2016 NBA Draft began at the Barclays Center in New York.

This year's draft was moved to Barclays Center, because the Knicks have made a lot of money in recent years, and this summer they will renovate Madison Square Garden, the mecca of basketball.

In this year's draft, compared to the transactions that took place in the previous half month, no one paid attention to it, especially when it saw the two teams with the top three picks, people expressed surprise in this year's draft, and then they just didn't want to pay attention.

In the end, the Lakers selected Ben Simmons with the first pick in the first round.

The main reason for choosing Ben Simmons is to make up for the organizational ability of the bench after Antetokounmpo played the start, Ben Simmons is two meters and eight meters tall and can play from the No. 1 position to the No. 5 position, which is basically the poor man's version of Antetokounmpo, of course, whether he can have Antetokounmpo's performance in the first two years still has time to see.

However, Ben Simmons is a little better than Antetokounmpo when he first entered the league, he is a little older, and he is more technically mature, and his talent is not as brutal as Antetokounmpo is showing now, but his height is already fixed in high school, and it will not take as long to adapt to Antetokounmpo's sudden height.

The Celtics also took the remaining superstar Brandon Ingram with no suspense at the second pick.

It's an obvious decision, is it possible to get the No. 2 pick and pick a role player like Buddy Hield and Jamal Murray, and then give Ingram to the Lakers?

If the Bucks don't trade the No. 3 pick to the Lakers, the Celtics might just give in and pick an instant player to strengthen the team.

In fact, the Celtics were very envious when they saw that the Suns traded LaVine and Monroe back with almost just one No. 1 pick, and also gave away Bledsoe, a player who doesn't know whether it was a time bomb or a future dawn.

But if that team is the Lakers...... The Celts refused, wasn't it just Monroe......

Angie said I don't cry......

The two superstar embryos have been selected, and the remaining third pick, people are curious about who the Lakers will pick.

Is it the all-around offensive and defensive brilliance of Buddy Hield? The addition of this player will immediately help the team that selected him, a senior who has good physical fitness and well-rounded skills, but basically has no potential to tap.

Or Bosnia's big centre-forward Draco Bender?

Last year, Porzingis was picked up by the Knicks with a low pick and played an amazing rookie season, and if it weren't for the outstanding performance of last year's rookie Towns, Porzingis would have won the best rookie award.

After the Italian champion of the year, Banjani, lost confidence in the white Europeans, and was finally raised by Porzingis.

Speaking of Europe, there is a very strange thing about the players who have been selected by the NBA with high picks, that is, their statistics in Europe are miserable.

Porzingis fell to the 20th pick, if it weren't for the logo man who got the news that the Lakers wanted to choose Porzingis and gave it to the Zen master, maybe he would have been picked up by the Lakers at the end of the first round, and the reason why Porzingis was not selected was because of his average of 6 points and 3 boards per game in European data.

Then this year, because the players in the draft are so bad, Draco Bender has also suddenly become the draft favorite, and his statistics in the Israeli league are "on par" with Porzingis, averaging 4 points and 4 rebounds per game......

Speaking of Gasol in Barcelona that year, he only averaged 11 points and 5 boards per game, and then he almost became the champion, if it wasn't for the old man Joe who forced him to choose high school students, and the data of Gasol Jr. in Barcelona was 3 points and 4 boards, but because the champion Lang Banyani was really cheating in 2006, the NBA team once lost confidence in the white Europeans, and it fell to 2 rounds.

Jamal Murray is also a player that people think the Lakers might pick and is a great shooter, and the Lakers are just in the process of accumulating pitchers.

In addition to these few...... There's really no one.

Then, when people finally had a little suspense about this year's draft, the Lakers did not choose, but unexpectedly selected a local player from California, the University of California, Berkeley (UCB) defensive titan Jaylen Brown.

This little upset is an upset, although Jaylen Brown's draft prediction is also in the lottery area, but there are only about a dozen, because this player is quite average in other aspects except for excellent defense and counterattack during college, that is, the standard defensive coolie type, this kind of player is regarded as a top ten even in the super year of the draft, and in a normal draft year, it is the middle and late stage of the first round.

The Lakers selected Jaylen Brown, and it was his defense that they looked at, although there was still a 12th pick behind, but it had already been selected by others by that time, because there were only a few people who could be favored this year, and if it was a draft year, the Lakers could naturally wait, but this year they had to spend the No. 3 pick on a defensive coolie.

Because the Lakers continue to share the pressure of outside defense with Liu Ren with such players, Liu Ren is undoubtedly the Lakers' longest-playing player, with Antetokounmpo in the starting lineup, and there must be someone who can share the defense in the second lineup.

As for Jaylen Brown's poor shooting, you can practice it! Can't practice...... Besides, the first thing is to find a defensive striker for Liu Ren, and Jaylen Brown has good physical fitness, so it's good to play defensive counterattacks.

The top three picks were selected...... This year's draft is completely out of sight.

Several hot rookies Buddy Hield were drafted by the Kings, Jamal Murray was drafted by the Nuggets, Chris Dern was drafted by the Timberwolves, and Draco Bender was drafted by the Pelicans.

The Lakers unexpectedly selected a European pitcher with the 12th pick, selecting Gasol's national teammate, pitcher power forward HernΓ‘n Gomez from the Spanish league Atletico Madrid.

……

After the draft, Lakers management returned to Los Angeles.

Then, in Kupchak's office, as in the previous two or three years, there were people who started to put up a dozen photos on top of the strong top, and these were the Lakers' current roster.

Point guards: Antetokounmpo, Clarkson, Jaylen Brown, point guards: Thompson, Nick Young, Kobe, small forwards: Liu Ren, Ben Simmons, Korver, power forwards: Green, Gasol, Gomez, centers: Whiteside, Thackeray, Black.

There are also two two-way contract players, Ci Shiping and Henry, Ci Shiping basically has to come back after being terminated by the Rockets, Henry's words are a good option to prevent injuries, and it is not expensive.

There was another sigh in the office, how could the lineup be together again this year.

But this year, it was not one person who sighed, but two.

Jaylen Brown is a Californian, and was naturally signed by the chick who got the first month in the water, and then the Lakers sent LaVine and Monroe away, weakening Liu Ren's own players in the Lakers, and then the chick recommended Jaylen Brown to them, and in the case of just in line with the team's selection, the Lakers management can't refuse, Liu Renke jumped out of the contract and hasn't renewed it.

"Mitch, have you spent the offseason like this for the past few years?" The magician asked with a worried face.

"That's right, back then, I casually asked who the boss wanted to be his teammate, and then I didn't have to be the general manager every year, I was responsible for poaching people." Kupchak said bitterly.

"It's okay, we still have a two-way contract position, come on Mickey, you can travel this summer, I'll also travel, take a long vacation!" The magician said sympathetically.
