Basketball League of Legends

Chapter 15
After David Stern delivered a long opening remark, he took a note and slowly opened it. The atmosphere in the venue became tense in an instant. The fans watching were curious about the 76ers' choice. And those players who are expected to become the No. [-] pick are even more nervous.

"The first overall pick in the first round in 1996, the Philadelphia 76ers chose point guard Allen Iverson from Georgetown University!" When David Stern called out the final name, the audience A small man in the crowd stood up excitedly, and hugged his mother excitedly.

The fans in the audience were cheering, and even Iverson's opponents stood up and applauded for Iverson.In the entire venue, perhaps only Jonny sat calmly in his seat, motionless.Johnny knew that it was impossible for the Spurs to trade the first few draft picks to select him, even the first-round pick, so Johnny could only sit in his seat boredly, waiting With the start of the second round of the draft.

And not far from Johnny's seat, Johnny's old enemy Kerry Kittles stood there, looked at Johnny, and then whispered: "What an egomaniac!"

Jonny didn't like this little man who was selected first, and he didn't take what Kerry Kittles said to heart, but he felt a little familiar with the name Iverson, and it seemed that he would be a star player in the future , but thought in his heart: This little man is too short, he looks easy to deal with.

Then, David Stern announced the choice of the Raptors with the second pick in the first round. They chose Marcus Camby. The big man Camby also stood up excitedly. Then the Vancouver Grizzlies chose Sand Liv Abdul-Rahim, the Milwaukee Bucks selected Stephon Marbury, the Minnesota Timberwolves selected Ray Allen, and then they made a deal with the Bucks, using Ray Allen for Marbury brie.

Then, Boston Celtics general manager Michael Leon Carr hesitated for a while, and finally wrote Anthony Walker's name, and then he made up his mind to select Jonny Lee in the second round.

And one of Johnny's enemies, Kerry Kittles, was selected by the New Jersey Nets with the eighth pick in the first round. I saw him jumping up from his seat excitedly, and then happily chatting with his relatives and friends In the end, he did not forget to show a smug smile to Johnny, and the meaning in the smile was self-evident.

Johnny pouted, but also ignored him, turning his head away.

But Kerry Kittles' friend Prest Lauderdale didn't want to spare Jonny, he said sarcastically: "Haha, look at Kerry, he has already been selected, and then look at a certain Some people, are you here to play?"

Johnny glared at Lauderdale, meaning you wait for me. In fact, Johnny can't deal with these arrogant guys now. He can't jump up and fight this annoying guy. It's not what Johnny did. In fact, looking at Johnny's combat effectiveness now, he probably can't beat Lauderdale, a 2 meter tall man.

The No.13 pick in the first round, when David Stern pronounced the name of Kobe Bryant, Jonny finally reacted a bit. As a fake fan, he is most familiar with Kobe in the NBA Bryant's name.

And when Johnny saw the appearance of Kobe Bryant, he opened his eyes wide and was stunned: "Damn, it's this guy!" Johnny recognized Kobe at a glance, this guy is actually that weird guy!Kobe is that weirdo!
"It's unbelievable, Kobe is such a weirdo!" Jonny muttered.

Soon, the first-round picks passed one by one, and Jonny also dozed off. There were more than a dozen players, none of whom he felt familiar with, and when David Stern called out the fact that the Lakers selected Derek Fisher When it came time to name, Jonny finally heard the name of an acquaintance.

"Prest, it's your turn, hurry up and get ready!" At this time, Prest-Lauddale's agent in front of Jonny reminded Lauderdale, Lauderdale Sit up straight now.

In response, Johnny sat in the back and sneered.

Lauderdale heard it, and immediately turned his head and glared at Johnny, although he said with a smile: "Boy, I have already got a first-round commitment from Atlanta, are you envious? Haha, do you have such treatment as me?"

Lauderdale laughed, his disdain for Jonny was obvious, and he continued: "The Hawks' pick is the 28th pick in the first round, just wait and see me"

Lauderdale didn't stop laughing, and before he finished speaking, Johnny stood up suddenly, looked at the rostrum in a daze, and then roared, while Jimmy Adams was beside Johnny, jumping wildly , celebrating.

Lauderdale didn't know what happened, he stopped talking, as if a mouthful of phlegm was stuck in his mouth, and looked at the rostrum in a daze, David Stern was looking here at this time, and Soon, a staff member took a hat for Jonny, with the Magic team logo printed on it.

"What's going on?" Lauderdale murmured.

"He was selected by the Magic, the 27th pick in the first round." Lauderdale's agent answered in a low voice.

Johnny walked onto the stage step by step, he still couldn't believe it, magic?Where did it come from?
It's not just Johnny thinking about this question, Gregg Popovich is thinking about it too, he's already prepared for the 31st overall pick in the second round, and the result is 4 picks short, Joe Ni was robbed.

Also feeling depressed is Michael Leon Carr, who is groaning in the Celtics draft room: "What's going on? What's going on? How could anyone look at him!?"

In the draft room of the Magic, Anfernee Hardaway raised his right hand and shouted: "Yes! John, great!"

Beside him, Magic general manager John Gabriel said with a smile on his face: "Okay, Anferney, I just hope this choice is correct."

Jonny walked all the way to the stage, and then shook hands with David Stern. At this time, he had already realized that he was selected by the Magic?Wouldn't it be better?After all, Jonny knows that the higher the draft pick, the higher the salary, and all this is thanks to the rookie Glenn Robinson in 94. He forced the Bucks to sign a 10-year contract with him, with a total salary of 6800 million As a result, the league introduced rookie salary cap regulations in the second season.

David Stern said a few words in Jonny's ear, but Jonny didn't hear him. He just took the microphone and delivered his acceptance speech: "I'm very happy to be selected by the Orlando Magic. I didn’t have the chance to shake hands with Mr. David Stern, but there was an accident in the sky. I am very happy. I can finally shake hands with Mr. David Stern. It is my dream to play for the Magic.”

The first few sentences were made up by Johnny now, but the last few sentences were taught by Jimmy Adams. He memorized this passage for a whole day. When he came back from Michael Leon Carr the day before, Jimmy Adams took a copy of it. The template was given to Johnny.

As soon as Johnny finished speaking, there was a huge applause in the venue. Of course, if an upset like Johnny was selected, there would naturally be booing voices, but Johnny couldn't care about it anymore. He is very happy now. For Johnny didn't want to pay attention to these annoying guys.
