Chapter 21 Super Oriental Dragon

Xie Kai continued to browse the news. There was a lot of news about the NCAA finals on the Internet, and of course there was also a lot of news about the draft.

Since the end of this year's NCAA championship finals, it has been called by the media as a drama comparable to Hollywood, with ups and downs in the plot and unexpected ending.

In this regard, the headline of the "Associated Press" is "Kane Xie's magical play helps Kansas win its first national championship since 1988".

ESPN's headline was "Missed Free Throws Cost Memphis National Championship."

The title on CBS is "Unforgettable Memories."

The title of the NCAA official website is "Super Oriental Dragon".

Xie Kai thinks that the imagination of the media people is really good, especially the title of the NCAA - "Super Oriental Dragon", hehe, it is obvious that he is Xie Kai!In his impression, the thinking of Americans is always straightforward, and they also use such implicit and somewhat special nouns.

However, there is no shortage of disparaging remarks on the Internet. A reporter wrote an article saying that Xie Kai was "traveling on dog shit luck", and some said that he was "playing a game for a lifetime".

Seeing these comments, Xie Kai couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable. He would desperately want to prove himself, and would want to let those who underestimate him know that his thinking was wrong.

A lot of news about the draft is predictions, such as who will be the most likely to be the No. [-] pick!Who are the players in the lottery area?How many talents will not participate in the draft!Etc., etc.

However, one of the news has been confirmed to be true.The news is about this year's draft pick, freshman Eric Gordon from Indiana University.

According to ESPN, Eric Gordon has announced that he will participate in the NBA Draft in June this year.

Gordon's performance this season is remarkable.He led the scoring list with 20.9 points per game and also set a freshman record with 669 points per game.In addition, his 231 free throws in a single season ranked third in the history of the team's single-season free throws, and he also tied Mike Woodson's record for scoring more than 3 points (30 times). Overwhelming many talents was named the best rookie of the year.

Although Gordon suffered a wrist injury in January, despite his Indiana University being eliminated by Arkansas State in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, it is difficult to really affect his draft prospects.According to NBAdraft.net's mock draft, he has never fallen out of the top 1, and some experts even predict that he may become the top 10 or even the No. 5 pick (Ross Beasley is the top 2).

It depends on whether Gordon is in the top 10 or the top 5. A large part of the factor comes from whether other talents participate in the draft. As a 2 player with outstanding scoring ability, except for the first-year talented guard OJ Mayo of the University of Southern California, there is no one in the field. The potential No. 1 rookie can compete with him in the draft.

Xie Kai pays special attention to the No. 2 players who may participate in the draft. Of course, he knows that his draft position cannot be compared with Gordon or Mayo, but he can also play the No. 2 position. Many, it also has a great impact on your own draft prospects.

For Xie Kai, perhaps North Carolina's Danny Green and Wayne Ellington, and Western Kentucky University's Courtney Lee will be his most direct competitors.

Not only Xie Kai saw the news that Gordon announced his participation in the draft, but his teammates also saw it.I saw Chalmers exclaiming as if he had discovered a new world: "Eric Gordon announced his participation in the draft. It seems that my pick will be moved down one place!"

Arthur, who was sitting in the back row of him, joked: "Dear Mario, it's a pity that you are going to become the second place!"

"Darrell, let me tell you that your satirical skills are really getting better and better. Remember to return the canned cod that you stole from me. Fuck, if I can become the No. [-] pick, I will participate in the draft last year ’” Chalmers said.

Suddenly there was laughter in the bus.After the NCAA Tournament Finals, draft talk will overtake Kansas' Jayhawks for the next two months.

The University of Kansas is located in Lawrence, Kansas, USA. Founded in 1865, it is a century-old school.

The Jayhawks arrived at Kansas on the night of April 4.School leaders and the mayor of Lawrence honored the NCAA Tournament Finalist.

Of course it was a celebration again, Xie Kai and the others drank a lot of wine.For Xie Kai, the total amount of wine he drank during the two years he joined the Jayhawks at the University of Kansas was not as much as he drank in the past two days.

Xie Kai laughed at himself in his heart that if he held this kind of celebration for a month, let alone participating in the NBA team's trial training, he probably would have a hard time passing the CBA team's trial training.

Fortunately, such situations will not be too many after all.According to the Mayor of Lawrence's plan, the University of Kansas' championship parade celebration will be held on the morning of April 4.

Xie Kai naturally agrees with this plan. The sooner this celebration is held, the better, so that everyone can put more effort into the next draft.Both training and tryouts take time and energy, and celebrating takes time and energy.

……

On the evening of April 4, Xie Kai appeared downstairs in the student dormitory where Zhou Jing lived.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Jing, who was wearing casual clothes, held Wang Mengqi's arm and appeared in Xie Kai's sight while talking.

Wang Mengqi's eyes were very sharp, and she was the first to spot Xie Kai who was standing next to the propaganda window. She gently supported Zhou Jing with her elbow, said hello to Xie Kai, and then excused herself to get out of the way.She's not stupid, she's pretty, why should she be someone else's light bulb, otherwise, let alone Xie Kai, she won't buy delicious food for herself in the future, even Zhou Jing might blame herself for her lack of vision.Why should I do such a thing that is not pleasing to both parties so stupidly?

Zhou Jing is 170cm tall, but weighs less than 55kg, and has a very good figure.Today's set of slim-fitting casual clothes set off her tall figure more vividly.

She saw Xie Kai put on a straight face on purpose, walked one meter away from him, gave him a blank look and said, "Why are you wearing a mask and a hat so mysteriously, why are you doing underground work!"

Xie started cocking his head and said, "I'm considered a basketball star at this school anyway, and walking around the campus without any scruples like this will attract the attention of others."

"You are really a stinky fart. When did you become a star? We ordinary people can't afford big stars!"

"Hey, I heard from Mario that a new western restaurant opened next to the school tastes very good. I want to try it. There are too few people alone. Please accompany me, okay?"

"Let's go, or there may be no place!" Zhou Jing urged.

Xie Kai stretched out his left arm slightly, and Zhou Jing immediately took it cooperatively when he saw this, and the two walked out of the school side by side.

Xie Kai made a "V" sign with his right hand behind his back without Zhou Jing seeing it!

——For a foodie, the appeal of delicious food is far more effective than pale words.
