June 29th.

Madison Square Garden, New York.

Green House.

Those who can enter this venue are the best of this rookie, and the moment Sun Xiaotian walked in, his heartbeat exploded.

At this time, the green house was full. The surrounding auditorium was filled with fans who witnessed the miracle, and round tables were surrounded by fans. By the time it starts, it will be filled with rookies in the lotto area.

As the live broadcast was broadcast from time to time, the young talents who attended the draft came in one after another.

9 o'clock sharp.

With David. Stern's appearance erupted in manic voices at the scene. There were cheers, but mostly boos.

But David. Stern smiled slightly, raised his hands, and motioned for everyone to be louder.

Americans just love to joke, and they booed Stern, mainly because of last season's collective bargaining agreements. This lengthy negotiation led to the reduction of the number of games in the season, which caused dissatisfaction among many fans. So, as the president of the league, it is only natural that Stern was booed.

While joking, Americans are also rational. David. No one can erase Stern's credit. So, cheers are also quite normal.

"Ladies and gentlemen"

It's the same in the United States, and the leader has to make a speech before any event. The same is true for Stern, after all, he is also from a law background, so he is eloquent and not allowed to show off?

But when he talked about the Heat's championship last season, the audience erupted in a tsunami of boos, but his speech had to be stopped.

However, old-timers are old-timers. For Stern, he has not seen anything in the Vertical and Horizontal Alliance for more than 20 years. He didn't feel sorry for the boos of the fans at the scene, but put his right hand in front of his right ear, imitating the player's habitual movements, with a smile on his face, which showed the relaxed attitude of the president.

……

The round table where Sun Xiaotian was sitting was in the second row, and in addition to his parents, Dan was sitting at the same table. Fagan, Song Qian, Selena and Xu guided.

Maybe it was because he heard that the Bucks were going to cut off Sun Xiaotian, so Sun Xiaotian was uneasy at the moment.

Due to his injury affecting his draft pick, Sun Xiaotian has slipped from the top 10 he had been predicting to the 10th to 15th pick. And the Bucks' highest pick this time is the 14th pick, and it is very likely that they will be selected. And listen to Dan. Fagan said that when communicating with the Bucks, the Bucks didn't care about anything at all, saying that as long as Sun wasn't picked with the top 13 pick, they would definitely pick him with the 14th pick.

This is simply a scoundrel, typical of the heart of a small town.

At this time, Song Qian saw Sun Xiaotian's face solemn, but he guessed what Sun Xiaotian was thinking.

"Don't worry, the Bucks can't pick you off." Song Qian lay on Sun Xiaotian's ear and told him.

"What? Is it true? Sun Xiaotian hurriedly asked.

"That's right! That's what Mr. Fagan told me. It's inconvenient to say the specific details now, but you'll know in a moment, so put your heart in your stomach! ”

Song Qian's words made Sun Xiaotian's heart fall to the ground.

It was at this time that David. Stern's speech is over, and he is about to reveal the top pick in this NBA draft, although there is no suspense, but the process still has to go.

"The New Orleans Hornets selected the No. 1 pick with Anthony Brown from the University of Kentucky. Davis. ”

Anthony. Davis' selection was a no-brainer, as the University of Kentucky's interior champion won six of the seven awards of the year in one season, with endorsements from the Associated Press, the Basketball Writers Association of America, and the Basketball Times, as well as the Woolden Award, the Adolf Rupp Award, and the Naismith Award.

In addition to his numerous individual awards, he also helped the University of Kentucky win the NCAA championship. It was a perfect end to my first and final season in college.

"The Charlotte Bobcats selected Michael Kidd-Gilchrist from the University of Kentucky with the No. 2 pick."

"What! It's the University of Kentucky again! But Michael Kidd-Gilchrist was really surprised to be selected with the second pick! In the previous prediction, he was not the second favorite in the second round, it seems that no one can guess Old Man Qiao's thoughts! "The commentary on the scene was very unexpected.

What is Michael again, and Kidd again, Sun Xiaotian was completely confused by this person's name. If the name is printed on the jersey in the future, it is estimated that it will form a circle.

The first two brothers, Sun Xiaotian didn't have a chance to fight against them before, but there will be many opportunities in the future, and he will learn their true level at that time.

"The Washington Wizards' third pick was Bradley from the University of Florida. Bill. ”

It's him! Sun Xiaotian was a little inexplicably happy to hear this result, and Bradley. Bill sat at his next table.

Sun Xiaotian was also very polite, he took the initiative to stand up and congratulate him. Bradley. Bill smiled and shook hands with Sun Xiaotian and bumped shoulders, and whispered, "Dude, see you on the NBA court." ”

It seems that Bradley. Bill hasn't forgotten the scene when Yale University eliminated them, and it's no wonder that he was plagued by injuries at that time and didn't play to his true level, so it was natural to be unconvinced. But Sun Xiaotian is not!

There will always be a chance for the two of them to compete again in the future.

－－－－－－

Sun Xiaotian was still anxiously waiting for the old man to call his name, watching the surroundings being called one after another, Sun Xiaotian didn't envy that, what if it was strange? I think I once fantasized about being called in the top five, and now I can't help but feel a little funny.

4 to 8 places, respectively, Dieng. Davis, Thomas. Robinson, Damien. Lillard, Harrison. Barnes, and Terrence. Ross.

To be honest, Sun Xiaotian didn't know any of these people. First, they didn't fight each other, and second, Sun Xiaotian was instantly confused when he heard the name of the West, where do you still remember! Especially in Greece, there is nothing "Si" at every turn, and many names sound similar.

The ninth pick was Drummond from the University of Connecticut, a man Sun Xiaotian recognized. However, Sun Xiaotian feels that his order should be higher, and judging from the experience of playing against him, Drummond is definitely an inside genius.

And the tenth pick is also Sun Xiaotian's old acquaintance--- Austin. Rivers. And he was also picked by the Hornets, and experts predict that his partnership with Champion Lang is very exciting. But what the situation will be, no one can say for sure.

Seeing the names of these people, Sun Xiaotian felt even more lost, they were all defeated by their own subordinates before, but now they are all higher than their own ranks, discriminating! Utterly discriminatory!

When Stern revealed the 11th pick, the Trail Blazers selected Meyers. Leonard, Sun Xiaotian's heart was worried again. At the moment, he is very hopeful that the Houston Rockets, who have the No. 12 pick, can pick him away, because it is the home team of the Chinese. If the Suns, who have the thirteenth pick, can pick themselves up later, it will also be good, after all, it is Selena's hometown!.

However, the Rockets did not pick him because he was a Chinese, they also chose Sun Xiaotian's former opponent ---- Jamie. Lamb.

It's over! Could it be that I really want to go to cold Milwaukee. The Suns have a slim chance of picking themselves, they don't have a shortage of men on the forward line, and with Nash gone, they're even more short of point guards at the moment.

Sun Xiaotian looked at Song Qian, his expression was even more ugly than his own. Go and see Dan again. Fagan, he's long gone, is he going to mediate, or is he planning a deal? Sun Xiaotian didn't want to think about it anymore, he buried his head deeply, and he didn't even want to listen to Stern anymore.

"The Phoenix Suns selected Sun Xiaotian of Yale University with the thirteenth pick!"

"Wow!!"

The scene erupted in warm applause and cheers, and the sound decibel was much higher than before.

At this time, Sun Xiaotian hadn't reacted yet, and it wasn't until Selena went to hug him that he realized that he was picked by the Suns.

"This man led Yale to history, reaching the Final Four in a record time, and if it weren't for his injury, he wouldn't have been so low. And I heard before that the Bucks wanted to pick him away desperately, but this time their wishful thinking failed. The commentary at the scene introduced Sun Xiaotian.

Sun Xiaotian stood up, hugged his parents, kissed Selena ......, and took the hat marked with the sun symbol handed over by the staff and put it on.

As for how he got to the stage, even he himself was in a trance, and he didn't even hear what Stern said to himself.

Knowing that he was pulled off the stage by a reporter on the sidelines for an interview, he woke up, and when he turned to look at Stern, he was gone.

……

After the interview, Sun Xiaotian returned to the backstage with everyone to celebrate. However, Dan was the only one who did not see him. Fagan's figure. Until a long time later, Dan. Fagan only came back, and when he saw Sun Xiaotian and them, Dan. Fagan opened his mouth and said a word, and the big guys were stunned!

"You're being traded!"
