Chapter 88

Outside the Continental Airlines Stadium in New Jersey, fans who bought tickets entered the arena in an orderly manner.

The composition of these fans is relatively complex. There are fans of the New York Knicks, fans of the Nets, and fans from Philadelphia, Boston and other places.

They spend money to enter the arena, watch the specially built stage, and want to know the team's operations in the draft as soon as possible.

Because so many fans came, the parking space was relatively tight. After two laps on the ground, Qin Fei and others found a parking space. As a result, Aunt Julie couldn't get in when reversing the car.

"Let me do it"

Qin Fei couldn't stand it anymore, and tried his best to recall the driving skills in his memory, and under the amazed eyes of Aunt Zhu Li and others, he put the car firmly on the spot.

"When did you learn to drive?"

Aunt Zhu Li knew that Qin Fei had never learned to drive, how did he reverse the car?Looks like an old driver.

"Athletes are fast and learn everything quickly."

Qin Fei laughed, and led them to the arena.

There is a special channel for the players participating in the election, and the red carpet is laid straight, looking dignified and mysterious.

Except for Qin Fei, the others were quite nervous. The two girls, Helena and Mandy, followed Qin Fei arm in arm.

The two of them are about the same height, about 1.7 meters [-]. They are slender and slender. They specially wore grand dresses with a little makeup.

Where did this star come from?

While the reporter was frantically taking photos, he always felt that these two girls were not very familiar, as if they had never seen each other before?Can't help but doubt my professional level.

After entering the arena, Qin Fei met Iverson in the toilet.

"Hey, brother!"

Iverson was very happy to see Qin Fei. This is his teammate who fought side by side in college, the "Georgetown Pippen" who helped him win the championship.

Qin Fei clapped his hands and shoulders with him, and then Iverson pointed at his neck excitedly.

"Qin, look what this is?"

Isn't this a long and thin neck?

Qin Fei followed his fingers and took a closer look on his neck. It turned out that there was a tattoo of the word "loyalty".

"handsome!"

He gave a thumbs up, from the bottom of his heart.

"Haha, it's still your suggestion. I think the Chinese characters are very beautiful, and I'm thinking about the next character pattern." Iverson pulled Qin Fei to walk in, and then the two met the agent Tellem and David Falk who were chatting with each other at the entrance of the passage.

David Falk should have met Qin Fei for the third time. The first two times were in the arena in Georgetown. At that time, he really did not expect that the market behind Qin Fei would be so good. He entered the first round and entered the small green house. Tellem has a set. He signed the two youngest players in the draft.

"Hurry up and sit down, the draft will start soon."

Tellem and Qin Fei said.

"Aaron, stay emotional and get ready."

Here's what David and Iverson said.

In the pitch-black arena, dim lights shone on the temporary stage. Behind the stage was a large wall made of NBA logos, on which were pasted the logos of the 29th overall picks in the first round, as well as exposed blank boxes.

Everyone knows that whoever writes their name in this box can become a millionaire overnight.

Wearing a pair of round-rimmed glasses, David Stern, the president of the league with a few strands of black in his thick white hair, walked slowly onto the stage, smiling in front of 1.5 fans and hundreds of millions of viewers in front of the TV.

As usual, everyone sends a wave of boos first

Stern took his time, read the manuscript, and made a very professional and skilled opening speech.

Qin Fei's support team was sitting next to Iverson's family. He saw Iverson's mother, Iverson's girlfriend and Iverson's daughter, three generations of grandparents and grandchildren living together.

On the other side are the Kobe family, Ray Allen family, Marbury family and so on.

Although they are very familiar with Qin Fei, at this critical moment, they are all very nervous and serious, sitting closely with their families and sharing the moment.

Helena kept staring at Qin Fei.

"what happened?"

Qin Fei looked a little uncomfortable, and pulled the tie on his chest. He hasn't worn a suit for a long time, and sportswear is more comfortable.

"Don't move, the tie is crooked."

Helena stretched out her hand and helped Qin Fei rearrange his tie.

The two got closer, and this action naturally revealed a kind of intimacy. Mandy, who was on the side, saw it, and was immediately unhappy, and turned her head away with a snort.

Helena wore a long white one-piece dress, with two white and delicate arms showing off her shoulders. Looking down from Qin Feidan's angle, it seemed that she could see a different scenery.

"You look good today." Qin Fei whispered in Helena's ear while no one was paying attention.

"Be serious." Helena gave Qin Fei a blank look, and took her hand back.

"When did I become unserious?" Qin Fei smiled slightly and turned his eyes back to the stage.

At this time, David Stern on the stage began to announce the selection of the Philadelphia 76ers with the first pick in the first round.

"The No. 1996 pick in the 76 NBA Draft, the Philadelphia [-]ers selected—"

"Sophomore guard from Georgetown - Allen Iverson!"

The audience instantly boiled and gave thunderous applause.

History will remember from this moment that a 1.8 meter [-] guard has become the new No. [-] pick in the NBA draft.

He represents a kind of miracle, and has illuminated the light for many young people who are confused on the road of basketball. From now on, people know that in the field of basketball, heroes are not judged by height, success or failure is not judged by thinness, as long as you have dreams, you can reach the other shore.

Everyone is drunk.

Only Qin Fei is awake.

It's all a fucking lie. As far as Iverson's physical fitness is concerned, although he is not tall, his speed and explosive power are at the historical level. If ordinary basketball players have neither this physical fitness nor height, it will be a real disaster.

What is real?

Specific analysis of specific issues is true.

Individual cases and the general public are often not to be confused. It is possible to use it as a spiritual inspiration and promote various tasks in reality to a new level, but it is a bit nonsense to use it as a dream.

But Qin Fei is really happy for Iverson.

This young man who loves to tell the truth and treat others with sincerity has finally stepped onto the stage of history that should belong to him. At this moment, he embraces his mother who has given everything for him, and thinks of the tragic experience in his childhood. The countless damp and dark days and nights are really hard work, and he can't help but moisten his eyes.

By the way, there is also Qin Fei!

Iverson deliberately walked to Qin Fei's side, Qin Fei immediately stood up, and the two hugged each other big.

The camera immediately zoomed in on Qin Fei, letting him show his face.

Then ESPN, FOX and other media began to introduce and analyze, and the TV cameras also began to show some highlights of Iverson's college days.

When the dust settled, Marbury was probably the most disappointed.

Because the 76ers also interviewed him before, Marbury always knew that the 76ers were hesitating, hesitating between him and Iverson.

Marbury felt that the reason why Iverson was elected as the No. [-] pick was because they won the championship in college.

But that was not due to Iverson alone, Qin Fei also helped a lot!

As he thought about it, he felt how he couldn't meet a reliable teammate in college, so he could only fight alone all day long. He was obviously a team player.

After taking a photo with Stern on the stage, Iverson stepped off the stage to accept the interview.

Then the second and third picks were followed in turn. At the fourth pick, Marbury was selected by the Bucks, and at the fifth pick, Ray Allen was selected by the Timberwolves.

The number of players in the small green room decreased one by one, and the atmosphere became more subtle. There were no rookies talking anymore, and they all hoped that Stern would hurry up and announce the result.

Iverson was the first player to finish all the agenda, and the only thing left was to take pictures, but that had to wait for all the players to be selected. Under the leadership of David Falk, he went to the box of the 76ers uniform team and met with the head coach and general manager.

The bigwigs first congratulated Iverson on being elected the No. [-] pick, and then invited Iverson to sit together for a while.

"Aaron, you were very successful in college. Do you think there are any players who are suitable for our 76ers?" General Manager Brad is also new, and he dared to ask a 21-year-old kid.

If it was any other rookie, he would definitely say something modest, but Iverson's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said honestly: "I suggest choosing my teammate from college, Qin Fei."

"Qin Fei?" The general manager frowned.

Head coach Johnny coughed lightly. He didn't expect Iverson to actually answer, and said, "Qin Fei is a good player, but we want an inside player more."

"Yes, and we tried out Qin Fei. Qin Fei is mediocre, with poor shooting and average potential." General Manager Brad also echoed.

"Average potential?"

Iverson's eyes were full of doubts, how did they try out?Have they seen Qin Fei's strength a year ago, and what strength is he now?This kind of progress is actually a mediocre potential?Really ignorant of potential

But Iverson had to consider the issue of the team needing an inside player, so after hesitating, he named another inside player, his college teammate Osella.

The general manager nodded after hearing this. It's reliable. Let's use the second-round pick to select this Osella in a while!

Off the court, the sixth pick in the first round of the draft, the Celtics.

Kobe's hands were sweating slightly, staring at David Stern.

That's right, the Celtics later selected their favorite young man.

He wore the No. 34 jersey when he entered the league. He has outstanding physical fitness, outside shooting, and inside offense. He and his good partner, a strong man wearing No. [-], formed a famous duo
