Chapter 82, 6th pick
On June 23, local time in the United States, today is the day of the start of the draft at the Barclays Center Arena in Brooklyn, New York. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
There are a lot of people at the draft today, and there are also many people watching the draft in front of the TV or on the Internet, and there are countless Chinese fans who are paying attention to this draft conference, but they are not He Dong, but for another Chinese rising star, "Big Demon King" Zhou.
In the studio of the Antarctic Animal NBA, a special guest came at this moment, who was Zhou's elder, chatting with the two hosts, looking forward to Zhou being selected by the NBA team.
After a year of silence, Huaguo's fans seem to have forgotten He Dong, who averaged 40 points per game in the winter trials.
Of course, attentive fans know that the NBA needs to be 19 years old to run, and He Dong is only 18 years old this year, not yet old.
As for He Dong's candidacy for this year's NBA, except for Tie Lei and other He Dong's friends in China, no one knows that Wang Nuo is hiding from his father Wang Qiangjun when he helps He Dong handle the relevant domestic procedures.
At this moment, everyone who knew that He Dong would run for election was watching TV in their respective homes.
In the arena, He Dong and Jerry found their place to sit, but the former's gaze kept scanning around, looking for a shadow he hadn't seen for a long time.
Lu Qing, his girlfriend who hasn't met in person for two years, what will happen when he meets in a foreign land now?
There was a vibration on the phone, it was Lu Qing calling, He Dong answered the phone with an excited face, and then heard the former's slightly mature voice.
"Where are you? I'm at the door. ”
Although there was a slight change in his voice, He Dong was sure in his heart that this was Lu Qing's voice.
Getting up from his chair, trotting to the door in three steps and two steps, a breeze drew the attention of the bystanders, and the young man seemed to be in a hurry.
He Dong just rushed to the door, and suddenly a graceful figure appeared in sight.
The girl is about 170cm tall, with a delicate eyebrow, and it is summer, wearing a pair of canvas shoes, simply wearing the popular clothes of this summer in the United States, and a baseball cap on her head. Looks like a pure American girl.
Seeing He Dong's appearance, the girl was stunned for a moment, then screamed and rushed to the former, jumping up directly and hugging the former like a koala.
"You've eaten Jin Kela, and you've grown so big."
Lu Qing pinched the strong chest muscles on He Dong's chest and quipped.
"If you don't grow so big, how can you beat those rivals who are trying to snatch you away from me."
He Dong said with a smile, a cheerful and lively girl like Lu Qing and a beautiful girl are pursued by many people in the United States, but she refused, no why, just He Dong.
Lu Qing snorted and laughed, pinched He Dong's muscles again, and then issued an order like a queen, "Carry me in, I want to announce to the world that my sweetheart has stepped on the colorful auspicious clouds to pick me up." ”
He Dong couldn't help but be a little stupid when he saw the seriousness in Lu Qing's eyes the moment he gave the order, and immediately kissed it.
In the face of the former's sudden attack, the latter did not dodge, closed his eyes and enjoyed this sweet moment.
The security guard at the door saw that the two kissed like this, and immediately felt uncomfortable vomiting a liter of blood, but they would not disturb the two, He Dong looked so strong, the security guards were afraid that they would not be able to beat him alone.
I don't know how long I kissed, He Dong felt that he was about to suffocate, and immediately separated, panting for breath, the feeling just now was really excited!
Although the kiss was over, Lu Qing's body was still wrapped around He Dong's body like a koala, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then He Dong carried He Dong into the draft venue.
The two of them naturally had a high rate of turning their heads like this, and there were laughter all around, accompanied by the cheers of everyone, He Dong hugged Lu Qing to his place and sat down.
"Hey, can you introduce this beauty?"
Jerry has long heard He Dong mention that he has a girlfriend, and now when he sees the real person, he can't help but be a little admired, He Dong is a bless kid.
"This is my fiancée, Lu Qing."
He Dong held Lu Qing's hand tightly, raised his head and introduced to Jeris loudly.
Fiancée, this is a completely different statement from his girlfriend, Lu Qing couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart when he heard these three words, but he still beat the former's chest, and pretended to be angry: "What do you say?" ”
Although there was accusation in the tone, there was a hint of crimson on the pretty face, and the shyness of the Chinese girl was showing her charm at this moment.
“woooo!”
With bursts of cheers, the NBA Draft officially began, NBA Commissioner Adam Shaw held the first round of the draft list in his hand, and then said loudly: "Welcome people from all walks of life to participate in the 2016 NBA Draft Conference, and I would like to express my gratitude to everyone on behalf of the NBA." ”
Xiao Hua then began to announce the draft rosters of each team in the first round.
"The Philadelphia 76ers drafted Ben Simmons from Louisiana State University with the first pick in the first round!"
With Xiao Hua's announcement, Simmons came to Xiao Hua wearing a hat printed with the 76er LOGO, although he was not very happy, but he still had to smile, otherwise it would make people feel that they were very cold.
After shaking hands, taking a group photo, and sending the president's blessings, Simmons immediately returned to his seat and was greeted by the cheers of the audience, he was the top pick in the 2016 NBA draft!
"The Los Angeles Lakers drafted Brandon Ingram from Duke University with the second pick in the first round!"
In the cheers of the audience, Ingram wore a hat printed with the Lakers LOGO to Xiao Hua to take a group photo, going to the Lakers such a team with a glorious history is what he dreamed of, even if the current Lakers are lonely, but the rich background is unimaginable.
As the star of the draft, Ingram also received cheers from the audience when he returned to his position, and his face looked high-spirited.
At this moment, an NBA draft staff member walked up to He Dong and handed He Dong a hat with the Pelicans logo printed on it.
He Dong also knows a little about the NBA's draft rules, and before announcing on the court that a team has selected you, there will be staff members who will issue you a hat to the team that selected you in advance.
"Hey, congratulations, the Pelicans have the No. 6 pick, and it looks like they're going to pick you with that pick."
Seeing that it was the Pelican's hat, Jeris looked satisfied, his efforts were not in vain, and He Dong successfully became a lottery rookie, and the position was still so high, ranking 6th.
In fact, the Pelicans originally planned to draft Buddy Hield with the No. 6 pick, but after they saw Ho Dong's tryout performance a few days ago, they changed their minds.
He Dong is the best helper they need for "thick eyebrows" Anthony Davis.
With He Dong's immediate combat power, he should soon be able to reverse the Pelicans' current decline, and Brother Thick Mei is already putting pressure on the management, and he doesn't want to waste his time anymore.
In the distance, Popovich and Kerr couldn't help but feel a little frustrated when they saw the Pelicans hat on Ho Dong's table, and such a good super rookie was actually cut off.
Both of them watched He Dong's trial performance on the spot, and the extraordinary strength shown by the latter left a deep impression on the two, both of them wanted to recruit He Dong under their command, but now they were snatched away by others first.
But the two did not give up the pursuit of He Dong in their hearts, after all, they can still trade on draft night.
