NBA opening draw to twilight Shaquille O'Neal

Chapter 34 King doesn't like Houston's...weather

On the night of the lottery, Wang Zelin did not go to training, but recharged his energy and prepared for the team's trial training from tomorrow.

"Uncle Zhou, how is my draft prospect now?"

At this time, Wang Zelin was fighting against the large piece of grilled salmon in front of him.

Since he brought Tom Bruce under his command, he has formulated a strict diet plan for Wang Zelin.

Wang Zelin also accepts this. Take James, who is often referred to as a professional player template, because of his extremely rich and nutritious eating habits and extremely strong self-discipline, so that he can still maintain a very strong after his thirties. explosive power and athleticism.

Not everyone is as talented as Baisuishan in a barrel.

Therefore, keeping your mouth shut and strictly abiding by the recipes tailored for you by the trainer are the professional ethics that every professional athlete must have.

Take the well-known entertainment industry actors as an example, reciting lines is their basic conduct. This is like a soldier and a gun. Whoever goes to the battlefield will not carry a gun.

"Currently, your popularity in the draft is five stars with full stars, and your potential is four stars. Among the predictions of 21 draft forecasting agencies, your highest pick is the seventh in the first round, and the lowest pick is No. 30 in the second round. position." Zhou Yang said the data report he had already collected.

After the end of the CBA finals, Zhou Yang began to mobilize his energy to build momentum for Wang Zelin, money, connections, naval forces, all the resources that could be used.

Therefore, when Wang Zelin officially stepped into the United States, his name has spread all over the United States.

It's just that he is hot in this time and space, but he still lacks the recognition of his strength by NBA teams.

"Oh, which team is willing to give me the seventh pick?" Wang Zelin was mentally prepared for his draft situation.

Because times have changed!
Yi Jianlian was selected with the sixth overall pick. In addition to his physical qualities that are rare among Asians, it was also because many NBA team owners saw the hope of a second Yao Ming in him.

Yao Ming has only played for the Mosaic team for eight years, and the net worth of the team owner Alexander has turned over several times. It is a lie to say that such economic benefits are not envious.

It's a pity that the performance of Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue later made everyone realize that there is only one Yao Ming, and at the same time gradually dispelled their curiosity about the Chinese players because of Yao Ming.

Therefore, even though Wang Zelin's performance in the CBA is no less than Yao Ming's performance, there are still not many people who are optimistic that he can play in the NBA, even if there are many such voices in China.

This is also the reason why Wang Zelin's fan value is only more than 300 million, and the CBA champion is not enough to prove himself.

"The seventh pick is held by the Golden State Warriors, followed by the Portland Trail Blazers' No. 11 pick, No. 12 pick, hehe, this team is familiar to you and me . " Zhou Yang also made a fool of himself.

"Mosaic?" Wang Zelin frowned quickly.

"Yes, now that Dayao has just retired, the Chinese atmosphere in Houston is still very strong. I think Mosaic is the most suitable team for you so far. You will be a new team base there..."

Just as Zhou Yang was excited to introduce the prospect of the Mosaic team, Wang Zelin disturbed him.

"I don't think Houston is right for me, is there any other team?"

Teaming up with the future Deng Ge is indeed a very tempting choice. After all, Deng Ge is a league superstar who wants to be the scoring champion, and the assist king if he wants to be the assist king. .

He and Harden really want to combine, and the future potential of their internal and external combination is definitely much stronger than that of Yao Mai back then.

Not to mention other things, just in terms of endurance, it has far surpassed Yao Mai.

But since he knew what stupid things MG would do in the future, he would never let himself become a mosaic.

"Ah! Why?" Zhou Yang was a little puzzled.

"Mosaic is willing to choose, and your talent is enough to match the No.12 pick in the first round. Moreover, their team is currently in the rebuilding period. Going there will not lack ball rights and playing time. Isn't this a multi-purpose thing? ?”

"Alexander is too stingy. Dayao helped him make so much money, and he is still reluctant to pay the luxury tax. I want to go to a team that has the hope of winning the championship."

Wang Zelin's reason made him unable to refuse.

After all, every NBA player has a natural desire for champions in the NBA.

Throughout the more than 40-year history of the Mosaic team since its establishment, only one luxury tax was paid in 2010, and it was still 76. Later, for the championship of the Light Bulb Group, it was paid again, but that's it.

So, who can resist this?

"What about the Warriors? It's located in San Francisco, the Chinese market is quite good, and it ranks among the best in the whole rice..."

The Warriors are more than good, they are the NBA hegemons for the next few years.

But it is a pity that in March, the Warriors signed Bo Gte, the No. 3 pick from the Kangaroo Country. For this reason alone, it is impossible for him to go to the Warriors.

After getting this veteran inheritance system, his future positioning is the kind of super insider at the level of the four major centers who once dominated the basket.

The Warriors are undoubtedly the founders who will push the small-ball era to the peak in the future. Joining them will make it easier and faster to step on the top of the NBA. At the same time, he also firmly believes that he has the strength and potential to make the Warriors management abandon Bo Geter. .

But there was still a voice deep inside him that made him reject this very tempting idea.

Rather than joining the opponent, Wang Zelin actually prefers to face the 73-win Cosmic Warriors that will sweep the alliance in the future.

"The Warriors just signed a good center in March. What they need to strengthen now is the forward position. It should be just a routine thing for me to go to a trial. Let's not waste time."

"This... Okay! The teams in the back are basically those who are interested in you lacking inside players or teams that are preparing to rebuild."

As an agent, his relationship with Wang Zelin is like that of a counselor and a lord in ancient times. Although Zhou Yang can give his own suggestions, it is the lord Wang Zelin who decides in the end.

The Trail Blazers with the 11th pick, the Suns with the 13th pick, the Bucks with the 14th pick, and the Mavericks with the 17th pick

……

In the general manager's office of the Houston Mosaic team, general manager Daryl MG was chatting with team owner Alexander, but from the latter's smile, it could be seen that the two had a very pleasant exchange.

"Don't worry, Boss. So far, the team that has given Wang Zelin the highest pick is our team. I promise you that you will see him at the Toyota Center Arena tomorrow morning."

MG is holding his chubby chin, and he looks like the world's major events are in my hands.

"Oh, if you say that, is the market of the Celestial Dynasty moving closer to us again?"

After hearing MG's repeated reassurances, Shizhan Da had begun to imagine that his net worth would be doubled again.

Well, I didn't say, since you've already made so much money as Boss, let's see if we should "slightly" pay extra luxury tax!

Looking at Alexander, who had fallen into Qian's eyes, MG wisely swallowed the words in his stomach.

Although the character of this guy is questionable, I have to admit that among the general managers of the 30 teams in the league, MG's ability is enough to rank among the best.

Otherwise, it is impossible for him to solve the original junk contract of the team shortly after taking office, and help the Yao and Mai combination create the most brilliant one in his career - 22 consecutive victories!

But unfortunately, what he did later would have to bear what kind of consequences.

Beep!
Beep!
At this time, the landline in the general manager's office suddenly rang, MG went over to look at it, and immediately laughed out loud: "Haha Boss, saying that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here, no, Wang Zelin's agent called us, definitely try it. We are discussing the trial training process for tomorrow.”

"Oh, see you soon then!"

Knowing that it was the team's future cash cow who made the call, Alexander immediately cut off the cigar in his hand.

"It's okay, let's hang them for a while, so that they know who has the initiative."

At this time, MG did not forget to play a psychological battle with great interest.

After a while, MG took the time to pick up the phone at the last moment.

"Wow!"

Beep!
……

"what's wrong?"

Seeing MG's expression stiff, Alexander asked anxiously.

"He... they seem to have hung up on us."

All of a sudden, MG suddenly fell silent.

But his silence was exchanged for an explosion of pressure.

"Then why don't you call me back, if you let this God of Wealth run away, then you are asking, call me quickly!"

Alexander instantly threw the cigar in his hand to the ground and shouted with a flushed face.

"Okay, I'll fight right now."

Beep!
After MG dialed it, Zhou Yang responded very quickly.

"Hey Zhou, my assistant poured coffee on my suit just now, and I missed your call. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, the main reason for calling you this time is to tell you about the trial training tomorrow."

"Oh, that's great, we are very willing to train King as Yao's next successor, we will use him as the core..."

"King said that he doesn't like the weather in Houston, so I don't need to talk about the trial training, then, goodbye!"

"Oh, wait..."

Beep!
"Boss, they refused to come to Houston to try out"

"why?"

"According to his agent, King doesn't like Houston's...weather?"

Speaking of this, MG's expression was so full of disbelief that he couldn't straighten his tongue.

"WTF..."

After hearing such a ghost reason, Alexander was so angry that he threw the entire humidor that had just been opened to the ground.
