Chapter 2: The Stranger at Madison Square Garden
Chapter 2: The Stranger at Madison Square Garden
"Where is this?" Zhang Kong opened his blank eyes and looked around, it seemed to be a very large hall, and there were noisy voices all around, and many people were sitting here, whispering in English.
Wait a minute...... English?
Zhang Kong was taken aback because he found that he could vaguely understand what the foreigners were saying. For English, Zhang Kong, who has scored 40 points in the college entrance examination, is definitely nine out of ten tricks, and he doesn't know anything, and there is absolutely no reason to be able to understand, but now, as long as the conversation of the people around him enters his ears, he can immediately understand the meaning, which is easier than listening to Mandarin. Looking around, there were some English slogans posted around him, and he could understand all of them, as simple as looking at the Chinese characters in the squares.
What's going on?
Zhang Kong's head was full of mud at the moment, and he couldn't figure out what was going on. How did he go to a foreign country and still be able to understand English and read English!
Madison ...... Madison Square Garden? How am I in Madison, how am I in America!! ”
At this time, on the stage in front, a fat old man wearing a blue-black suit, full of white hair, and glasses walked onto the stage.
Is that...... Stern!
Zhang Kong, who knows a lot about basketball and the NBA, just recognized at a glance who the fat old man standing on the stage was, NBA commissioner David Stern, a person who was all too familiar.
Here it is......
Suddenly, Zhang Kong's head thumped.
Countless messages poured into his mind like a tidal wave, sending his head to the ground. Fortunately, the tidal message came and went quickly, and when the tide gradually subsided, Zhang Kong, who reacted, also understood what kind of situation he was in.
He crossed!
To be precise, he possessed the body!
Attached to the man now.
Zhang Kong, still called Zhang Kong, is still a Chinese with black hair, black eyes and yellow skin. It's just that this Zhang Kong is two meters and eighteen meters tall and weighs two hundred and twenty pounds, and he is a basketball player with a center position on the court. There's only one reason it's here, to participate in the 2007 NBA Draft!
He actually crossed the possession, and he also participated in the NBA draft!
Zhang Kong's eyes were full of shock, and then he discovered something that shocked him even more. That's this Zhang Kong, this Zhang Kong...... It's clearly the character he created when he was playing NBA2K12. That's right, that's absolutely it, that's absolutely the case, all the data is exactly the same as when I created my character, including...... The anti-heaven attribute that he modified with a modifier!
When Zhang Kong's spirit finally recovered from the shock, his mind was immediately attracted, because the NBA2007 draft has officially begun!
In 2007, the first pick in the NBA Draft, the Portland Trail Blazers selected a six-foot-eleven-inch, 285-pound center from Ohio State University. Greg Oden! ”
When Zhang Kong saw Auden with a confident smile on his face, hugging his family and friends to celebrate, taking the cap with the trailblazer logo, and walking on the stage to shake hands with David Stern, he mourned in his heart for this 'old guy' who was twenty years old but more mature than forty years old.
Zhang Kong, who traveled from later generations, is very clear about Oden's future, known as 'a center that only comes out in 20 years', and came to the NBA with the halo of countless geniuses, but he was knocked down by injury without playing an official game, which became another regrettable case in the NBA.
Of course, no one can really predict the future except for Zhang Kong, and now everyone is optimistic about this big man center, thinking that he is the hope of a center in the United States. And the Trailblazers' uniform team shouted excitedly. They think they've got a future and are confident in the Roy-Oden-Aldridge combination.
In a few years, the championship will be in the bag.
The uniforms of the other teams had a look of envy and hatred. Everyone wants Oden, and whoever gets the top pick will choose Oden, which is no suspense.
After Oden thanked him for returning to his position, David Stern continued his NBA draft process.
In 2007, the Seattle SuperSonics selected a six-foot-nine-inch, 160-pound shooting guard from the University of Texas with the second pick in the NBA Draft. Kevin Durant! ”
Durant also got up from his seat and hugged his family to celebrate, and when he took the Seattle SuperSonics cap and walked onto the stage, Zhang Kong obviously saw that Durant had an unwilling look on his face.
Obviously, even if he becomes a role model, he is still unwilling, perhaps in Durant's view, the champion is his rightful position!
Zhang Kong, who came from later generations, also believes that Durant is fully worthy of the position of champion, not to mention other honors, the scoring champion for three consecutive times is not something that can be won by any cat or dog. Three consecutive scoring champions are enough to show that Durant's scoring ability is definitely the top line in the league.
Of course, the current Durant is still very young, and the future 'Du Shen' will mature quickly after several years of training in the NBA. Now he's just a tall, skinny, erratic shooter.
After Durant, the Atlanta Hawks chose Al Horford as the prospect. Greg Oden's alumnus Mike Conley became the fourth rookie.
Then Jeff Green was selected by the Celtics in fifth place, and he ran onto the stage with a surprised face, saying that the Celtics are a great team, he has been a Celtics fan since he was a child, and it has always been his dream to be able to play for the Celtics.
Zhang Kong looked at the excited and nervous Jeff Green, and couldn't help but sigh secretly for him in his heart, I don't know what this guy would think if he knew that he didn't have to play for the Celtics in a single game, and was used by the Celtics as a bargaining chip to trade Ray Allen, and was dumped to the Seattle SuperSonics to be with Kevin Durant.
And after Jeff Green, a name that made Zhang Kong feel familiar sounded from David Stern's mouth.
"In 2007, the Milwaukee Bucks were the sixth pick in the NBA Draft, and they chose a seven-foot, 200-pound power forward to come to China. Yi! ”
Seeing the tall and thin bamboo pole, wearing a baseball cap with a serious face, walking on the stage, Zhang Kong couldn't help but think of the future again.
To be honest, Yi Jianlian is actually a very powerful player, as a seven-foot man, with comprehensive skills, coordinated movements, flexibility, and an accurate mid-range shot. The talent is much higher than Yao Minglai, the symbol of Chinese basketball.
It's a pity that God gave him perfect physical fitness, but didn't give him a strong heart. He couldn't play in the NBA for a long time, in addition to communication and adaptation problems, the more important reason was his weak mentality.
Control the career of Yi Hei who had a period of time, on the Internet, on the forum, desperately sprayed Yi Jianlian, weak, unstable, and waste. But more often than not, it comes from the mentality that hatred of iron does not make steel.
Next, Zhang Kong continued to follow the progress of the draft. He had no idea if he would be selected, even though the information in his head said he was coming to the NBA Draft. Zhang Kong didn't take it to heart either. In his memory, there was no Chinese named Zhang Kong in the NBA draft this time.
With the first round of the draft completely over, none of BA's thirty-team uniforms were made up of mentally retarded people, and after the first round, almost all of the strong rookies were picked.
When it comes to the second round, the uniform team is not selecting potential rookies, but looking to see if they can pick a baby from the second round of the show.
There is no shortage of second-round picks in the NBA who were drafted in the second round but played at a price that the major uniform groups regretted. But after all, such people are very rare, such as Arenas who become superstars in the second round, and the NBA is only so unique.
Zhang Kong didn't pay much attention to the second round show, so he scattered his attention and began to pay attention to other situations. He tried hard to recall the information that suddenly entered his head, compared them with those rookies who could be played in the future, and remembered their appearances in his heart.
It was at this time.
"NBA2007 the draft of the year, the 30th pick in the second round, the Dallas Mavericks selected Zhang Kong from China, who is six feet eleven inches, weighs 220 pounds, and is a center on the court!"
