In 2003, the San Antonio Spurs broke the Lakers dynasty's domination of the league.

In the impression stream of most fans, it seems that the civilian Pistons killed the Lakers F4 in 04, which was the beginning of the collapse of the Lakers dynasty.

But in fact, before the Pistons came, the Lakers were no longer championships.

In the Western Conference semifinals in '03, the Spurs led by Peak Duncan eliminated the Lakers in six games.

There are many reasons why the league supremacy lost to the Spurs, even going back to last offseason.

In the '02 offseason, the three-time Sharks completely let themselves go and postponed the surgery he was supposed to have started in the offseason until the end of the offseason, resulting in him missing the team's preseason training and the previous month's games.

And in that month, Kobe, who had been bound, was finally liberated and obtained the right to fire unlimitedly, which gave Kobe a taste of sweetness.

So when O'Neal came back, Kobe, who was already ready to move and tasted the sweetness, never wanted to give way.

People, it's easy to upgrade consumption, but it's hard to downgrade consumption.

People who have experienced eating eighteen kinds of fruits every day are hard to go back to the life of being able to rely on the right lady every day.

Similarly, Kobe Bryant, who has experienced unlimited firing rights, is no longer willing to play only support.

The contradictions between the two became irreconcilable.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and when Kobe and the shark had a quarrel, the locker room controller Zen Master was absent because of kidney stone surgery, which made the entire locker room directly into a pot of porridge.

The atmosphere of the team was ruined.

In the playoffs, the Zen master was again absent because he had to have heart surgery.

Also, the role players are dead because of their age and poor locker room atmosphere.

Horry, who had high hopes, made 0 of 18 three-pointers in the series against the Spurs.

Another important substitute, Fox, was all about going to the San Fernando Valley to shine in the art industry, and he didn't have basketball in his heart.

On the other hand, on the Spurs' side, all the role players can stand up, and the whole team is vibrant.

And the most critical point is that at the end of the Spurs bench, the giant man with the eastern face, is a huge deterrent to the Lakers, especially the Sharks!

Even if he just sat there, Shaq was panicked.

There is a will in the dark, and the Spurs winning the championship is already doomed.

The Lakers dynasty collapsed overnight, and Tim. Duncan proved once again that he would be the best player of this era.

But at this time, Duncan would never have imagined that half a month later, a group of new opponents would pour into the alliance and completely change the pattern of the alliance!

After the season, the most talked about by fans was the 2003 NBA Draft.

This may not be the most expensive draft in history, after all, there are Olajuwon, Barkley, Jordan and their jewels in front of them.

But it's definitely the most high-profile draft in NBA history.

Before the draft, the names of Ryan, James and Anthony were already resounding all over the world.

Especially Ryan, who won the dream team after graduating from high school, won the championship in the NCAA in his freshman year, and took the lead in signing a 120 million sneaker endorsement contract before he played in the NBA.

He is in the big news every day, and he has long become a superstar in people's hearts.

Some people want to see him become the champion, some people want to see him become a joke.

But whether it is a real fan or a black fan, at least Ryan's traffic is indeed incomparable to other rookies in history.

For a while, people were looking forward to Ryan's performance in the joint tryout.

However, Ryan's agent Leon. Rose announced: "Lane will not participate in joint tryouts, and we will only accept tryouts from teams with the top three picks." ”

How confident is that? Leon. Ross was telling the rest of the league:

"Come on, we're talking about a super genius. Teams outside the top three, don't join in the fun, there's no need, you can't choose anyway. ”

This wave of rhetoric made Ryan be ruthlessly marketed before the draft.

Cleveland fans laughed at the time:

"Look at him, he won't participate in the trial. Cut, as if the top three picks would definitely invite him to a tryout, we Cavaliers disdain, who hasn't seen a super talent. ”

Then the next day the Gram village newspaper: "The Cavaliers have officially invited Ryan to a tryout!" ”

Fans:......

Some men scolded, "This woman is really sassy, a fool is looking for this". But if you really have the opportunity to have it, you really can't put it down!

Although the Cavaliers' first target is still James, although the chances of the Cavaliers picking Ryan in third are low.

But...... After all, there is still a little chance to get it!

And every team that has tried out Ryan has been intimidated by his near-full body.

In terms of static talent, Ryan is now 2.03 meters tall when he takes off his shoes, instead of 2 meters measured in his freshman year.

Secondly, people were surprised to find that Ryan had actually reached 110 kilograms!

It's the result of Ryan's pre-draft training, and he's been hanging on to meat, building muscle, and preparing for a more intense NBA.

Now his body plays directly in the NBA, and there is no problem at all.

Although he has gained weight, in the dynamic test session, Ryan's ability such as bounce and speed is still explosive.

Previously, each team's talent for Ryan could only be judged by "looking".

But after the tryout and detailed testing, to borrow a phrase from an ESPN reporter, it was:

"Almost all team management who tried out Ryan felt that Ryan's talent was underrated."

The world was in an uproar, and Ryan was already a talent visible to the naked eye. As a result, after the trial, can you still come to a conclusion that you are "underestimated"?

This Nima ...... How horrible were his tryouts?

I don't know how terrible the results are, but in order to further verify Ryan's ability, Nuggets owner Kroenke made last season's Nuggets scoring champion Juwan. When Howard took time out to play a simple heads-up with Ryan.

Second Uncle Huo refused on the grounds that "the wife of the next-door neighbor has a child".

Laughing to death, can Second Uncle Huo go? He has become a free agent this summer and has yet to reach a contract amount.

If this Nima loses to a college student alone, will Lao Tzu's new contract be signed?

After this incident was exposed, Zhu Wan. Howard was very speechless in an interview:

"I said that my neighbor's wife gave birth to a child who looked very similar to me, so I didn't have time to go. Don't spread rumors, I'm not afraid of Ryan so I won't go alone! ”

It's nothing new for NBA players to lose to student players.

But NBA players don't dare to face student players directly, and this is the first time that Nima has opened the world.

This wave of hype of "Ryan deterred NBA players" has made Ryan's call to become the champion a little higher.

Second Uncle Huo was convinced, he didn't dare to deal with the war, and he didn't know how it leaked out.

It can only be said that Wesley has eyes and hands. He knows exactly what is going on in the alliance.

Falck, the greatest agent of the last century, who served Jordan, once said:

"Leon. Ross? That guy doesn't have the skills. The reason why he was able to rise in the broker field in a short period of time is all due to Wesley behind him! ”

In short, people's expectations for the '03 draft have been pulled to the top.

Although Nike is also frantically marketing Ajan, under Wesley's operation, the current highest traffic is still Ryan.

Not only North America, but also Chinese fans are paying attention to this year's draft.

In the last year, Mr. Yao has made the N.B.A. more popular in China than ever before.

So this year, there are countless people who are paying attention to Ryan's draft.

In this way, the time flew to June 27th, the draft day!

Madison Square Garden is bustling with fans from all over the country gathering to see firsthand the team's history-changing choices.

Before the draft began, TNT TV was still making predictions.

Kenny. Smith said bluntly: "Ryan is not necessarily the champion, he has shortcomings after all. His passing ability is not as good as LeBron's, and his versatility is a little worse. ”

Barkley laughed: "O'Neal is going to play in the high school league, and he can also be the most accurate three-point shooter!" Come on Kenny, are you talking about the passing and control skills of the high school league? Ryan, but he really played a season of winning all the championships in the NCAA! ”

"But you have to admit that he's really weak on the ball as a player in the number three position."

Barkley and Kenny. Smith was arguing, and fans were discussing:

"The champion has to be James! He has more potential! ”

"It's almost there, Anthony's skills are the best and most mature of the three, and fools know that they should choose him as the champion!"

"Don't brag about these useless things, let me ask you, which NBA star would be afraid of James and Anthony? But there are NBA stars who dare not go head-to-head with Ryan!

Don't worry, if the Nuggets don't sign Ryan, Denver fans will directly blow up Pepsi Center the next day! ”

Of course, there are also many Nike who use commercial means to use some media to suppress Ryan:

"I haven't seen an outside core who can't play with the ball, and Ryan has no future in the NBA at all. LeBron is different, he's a combination of Jordan and Magic! ”

"Ryan may be in the best defensive team, but he's never going to be the MVP. LeBron is different, he must be an MVP-level player in the future. ”

"Ryan? I'm not saying he's bad, but he's just a high-level blue-collar worker.

Who would use the champion to sign a normal IQ version of Artest? ”

It can only be said that capital recognizes money and does not recognize people. Nike was still kneeling and licking Ryan before, but now it's starting to get dark.

But Wesley believes the remarks will have no effect on Ryan.

Compared to previous achievements, this discredit is nothing at all.

Under the discussion of the whole world, the rookies began to enter the little green house, and everyone had anxiety and nervousness written on their faces.

James and Anthony are no exception.

They all hope that they can become champions, but they are completely unsure of their hearts.

Everyone was scared, pinching heart disease medicine and waiting for the draft to begin.

Only Ryan, when he entered in a black suit, there was no nervousness on his face, only confidence and calmness.

He has a $120 million endorsement contract, he has a trial performance that amazes everyone, and he feels that he has nothing to worry about.

When reporters interviewed James, James said: "I hope the Nuggets really think about me." ”

When interviewed by reporters, Anthony said: "Hopefully I can be selected at the first place. ”

But when interviewed with Ryan, Ryan said: "I have nothing to be nervous about, I know what kind of pick I deserve." ”

Ryan's confident aura simply exploded the other two.

After taking their seats, Ryan and Agua hugged and chatted for a while.

Anthony's body was trembling: "Ryan, why aren't you nervous at all!" ”

"There's nothing to be nervous about, no matter how bad it is, you won't fall out of the top three."

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, no matter how bad it is, it will not fall into the top three."

Wade also leaned over: "Ryan, what are you doing sitting so far in front?" ”

"Of course, it's convenient to be the first to pronounce my name, so it's convenient for me to go out."

Ajan had been silently watching Ryan from behind, his fists clenched nervously.

Oh, the first to say your name?

Who will be the first to read it and say not necessarily!

Previously, the Nuggets told James' team that they would seriously consider Ajan.

What does this mean? It shows that Ryan is not so stable!

From that nationally broadcast high school game to now, Ajan has been overwhelmed by Ryan.

I thought that the 90 million sneaker contract was in hand, and I could surpass Ryan once. Unexpectedly, Ryan actually signed a contract of 100 million yuan.

All this time, Ajan has been suppressed.

Today, Ajan believes that the day has finally come for him to turn over!

Nike also thinks so, if James becomes the champion, the heat will undoubtedly surpass Ryan.

When the time comes, Nike will trample Reebok under his feet and let him call Daddy!

The draft began quickly, and David Brown. Stern came to the stage and gave a brief speech.

At this time, in the box of the Nuggets, their phones were flooded.

The unwilling old logo said directly: "You can pick the whole team, including Gasol, and then you can take the draft picks in the future, I just want Ryan!" ”

The price tag is still very attractive, after all, Gasol and Battier are very good players. And, predictably, the Grizzlies won't be too good in the next few years, and the draft pick will definitely be worth it.

In addition to this, the supersonic is willing to pack the mine directly . Allen and Lewis.

The Nets said that everyone except Kidd would pick at will.

The Celtics even directly took out Pierce, who averaged 25.9 points per game last season, and directly exchanged the star list for Ryan!

Nuggets general manager and former Nuggets legend superstar Kiki. Vanderwich was dazzled.

The whole league put their beauties in front of them and chose them at will...... The Gold Club you used to talk about, I guess that's how it feels, right?

This was the first time he had seen so many drooling offers sent to his door.

Merely...... All the offers came in the hope of getting the No. 1 pick to sign Ryan, and no team was hoping to trade the No. 1 pick to sign James......

Fortunately, the Kecun fans don't know this, otherwise they would have been.

Kiki. Vanderwich looked at Stern, who was still speaking on TV, and touched his chin.

Like what Pierce, Ray. Allen, Gasol and others are all sure to be stars in the NBA.

And Ryan, no matter how talented he is, he is also a lottery ticket, and whether he can win the lottery is another matter.

It's just that once this lottery ticket is really scratched out, the amount will be immeasurable.

On one side it is 1 million, and on the other side there may be hundreds of millions or nothing.

Kiki. Van der Wijk didn't expect that he would one day fall into such sweet happiness.

After Stern finished speaking, the first and most high-profile results were about to be announced!

The Celtics are full of confidence, and Pierce is already a superstar, so it's not a big problem to change the champion, right?

Supersonic is also very confident, Ray. Allen + Lewis, I've got all the best players for you, can you stand it?

Stern took the stage, smiling.

Both Anthony and James closed their eyes, as if they were having trouble breathing.

Only Ryan, who confidently sat in his place and waited for the result.

"In the 2003 NBA Draft, the first pick in the first round, the Denver Nuggets selected ......"

James felt the air freeze and the silence around him was eerily quiet.

Anthony felt like time had stopped, because Stern's pause seemed as long as decades.

What was Ryan doing when these two were already nervous to death?

Ryan stood up half a second before Stern pronounced his name!

Just as people marveled at Ryan's confidence, Stern pronounced the name:

“...... I chose Lane, from the University of Wisconsin, from China! ”

The ESPN commentator shouted excitedly:

"Ryan! It's Ryan! Sure enough, it was him!

He stood up directly in advance, which represented his self-confidence!

He was the top pick in the 2003 draft! The undisputed top pick in the draft!

Ladies and gentlemen, a legend begins! ”

At the scene, the cheers of Denver fans seemed to drown out the whole of New York.

Countless Chinese fans are also cheering at home, and for two years in a row, Chinese players have become the top picks in the draft, and the NBA is nothing more than that!

The Kecun fans were happy and ashamed at this time, happy that they had the opportunity to get Ajan.

Shamefully, Ajan, who they worshipped as a god...... The Nuggets can't even look down on it?

What do you mean?

Ajan clenched his fists unwillingly, lost again, lost again! When will you be able to win him once!?

Nike was also very helpless, and smeared Ryan for a long time before the draft, but the fart didn't work.

It seems that in the future, we will have to increase the intensity of praising Ajan!

It's just that Nike and Ajan don't know yet that Ryan became the top pick in the '03 draft, but it was just the beginning of their long nightmare......
