Chapter 3 Minnesota?

Chapter 3 Minnesota?
After deciding to participate in this year's draft, Li Shihao began to hire an agent to plan the draft for him. Finally, under the recommendation of Yao Ming, Li Shihao chose Bill Duffy as his agent.

After Yao Ming's landing in the NBA in 02, Bill Duffy's agency BDA Sports Management has gradually become one of the world's famous agency companies. Because he is good at playing emotional cards, he always serves his players with sincerity and kindness. Attitude These characteristics are widely circulated in the brokerage circle.

The role of a good agent is undoubtedly very helpful. Duffy set up a special agent team for Li Shihao based on the Yao team as a template. The news spread across the ocean through the Internet.

When it was learned that there would be Chinese youths participating in the NBA draft this year, countless otaku online chatting late at night in front of the computer were excited!
New faces coming to the NBA again?Or point guard?

Leading the team to reverse the University of Connecticut in six overtimes, such a cool deed happened to our compatriots!Some well-known basketball portals such as Hu Pu and New Wave have put this matter on the top, and the forum exploded.

许多在美利坚有关系的记者在第一时间搞到了李世浩的大学联赛数据，场均19。4分3。2篮板7。2助攻2。2抢断的数据亮瞎了无数人的双眼。

If this data can still maintain its value after Li Shihao enters the NBA, Li Shihao will definitely be able to play his own shining point.

Many domestic news media are already preparing to place the title of Asia's No. [-] defender on Li Shihao, and even speculate how much attention this title will get after it is published!

However, at Duffy's request, Li Shihao hired a professional trainer to carry out professional and high-intensity training every day, trying to ensure that Li Shihao's competitive state would not be affected by previous injuries and decline.

As the draft is approaching, the Clippers from Los Angeles have won this year's No. [-] pick, and released the news that Griffin would not be selected. As soon as this news came out, it aroused widespread enthusiasm in the United States. As a result, Griffin's worth also rose instantly.

After learning the news, the remaining 29 teams in the league had to make a backup plan and prepare to find another player target.

Under the operation of Duffy and his agent team, eight teams expressed their optimism for Li Shihao and sent him invitations for trial training.

After a series of measurements of commercial value and team strength, Duffy finally determined four options: Golden State Warriors, Oklahoma City Thunder, New York Knicks and Minnesota Timberwolves.

As soon as the plan was released, it was placed in front of Li Shihao in the afternoon. Duffy expressed his analysis to Li Shihao:

"The Thunder's pick is the most valuable. The pick they hold is the No. [-] overall pick. Bruce, if you are selected by them, the commercial value will increase a lot, and the strength of the Thunder has increased tremendously last year. Progress, the combination of KD and Westbrook will become an emerging storm in the league. If you join them, I believe you can enter the playoffs in the West. But in front of them is James Harden. Their choice The uniform team is more inclined to Harden!"

After finishing speaking, Duffy paused, and said with a smile: "But as your professional manager, I will not give up any chance to make you better, and I will try my best to fight for it!"

Li Shihao nodded with a smile, motioning for Duffy to continue.

"The New York Knicks are a big city. Once you are selected by them, your commercial value and exposure will be greatly improved. I believe that many contracts will flock to you!"

…………

"According to reliable news, the Golden State Warriors will choose a high-quality point guard as the core of the team to rebuild this year. Their goal may be between you and Stephen, but their record last year is even second to last in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks have a few more wins than them, you have to be mentally prepared!"

"This year the Timberwolves will hold three picks in the first round, and two picks will be cashed in the top ten. According to the team's prediction, the No. 18 pick will be traded, so your goal for Bruce should be in the top ten. The fifth and sixth pick, according to news, the Timberwolves are more interested in Rubio, who is far away in Europe, even though his contract with the home team has not yet ended, but they are optimistic about the potential of the Spanish golden boy!"

"So your order with him will determine how important you are to the Timberwolves team!"

"Next, it depends on Bruce, which choice do you prefer?" Duffy took a sip of coffee, turned his gaze to Li Shihao, and waited for Li Shihao's answer.

Li Shihao reached out to pick up the plan and looked at it carefully, his brows furrowed: "Bill, which option do Stephen and the others like?"

"I had some communication with Stephen's agent, Austin, and they said they wanted to go to the New York Knicks, but they revealed a message that the Golden State Warriors would have a great possibility of cutting their beard in the draft. Will definitely win against Stephen Curry!"

"However, anyone can see their secret thoughts. I am afraid they are more inclined to go to the Golden State Warriors. Maybe they have reached a certain agreement with the Golden State Warriors."

"Since Stephen wants to break into the Western Conference with the Golden State Warriors, then Minnesota is my best choice!"

Duffy was stunned and hesitated, "Bruce, Minnesota is a small city. Since KG left for Boston, the ball market there has been in a green state, and it will be more conducive to your development if you go to the Eastern Conference team!"

Li Shihao waved his hand, rejected Duffy's kindness, and said with a slight smile: "Bill, I understand what you mean, the overall strength of the western part is indeed far stronger than that of the eastern part, but I can also sharpen myself there, without competing with the top teams. Fighting against each other, how can I grow up? And I believe that Stephen chose the West for the same reason as me!"

Duffy smiled and nodded.After understanding Li Shihao's thoughts, as an agent, it is very good for the players under his banner to have a heart that will never admit defeat while being strong!

After deciding on the draft team, Duffy and his agent team flew to Minnesota overnight to contact the Timberwolves.

After a busy period of time, the 2009 NBA Draft was held at Madison Square Garden as scheduled. Media from all over the world gathered their spotlights in the center of the venue, waiting for the start of the draft.

Li Shihao's parents died early, and he was raised by his grandfather since he was a child. After communicating with his grandfather, he decided to attend the draft with the head coach Jim and his agent Duffy.

When he arrived at the seat in the small green house, Li Shihao was surprised to find that his seat was adjacent to Stephen Curry. When he saw Curry's cute smiling face, Li Shihao sincerely had a kind of expectation for the future in his heart!
Today, he will enter the league with Curry to fight, and what awaits them is an unknown fate and choice!

His eyes seem to have crossed the Madison venue, seeing himself who is still fighting ten years later...
