Howard was stunned. This guy was too honest to be joked about. What should I do?
His agent regretted it so much. He had a tryout with Roy on the same day, so that Howard could use his technical strength to suppress Roy.
Because in yesterday's competition, Howard had already achieved a small advantage over Okafor.
And Howard was 18 years old and Okafor was 22 years old. The age advantage was too obvious.
So today, although Howard's agent disagreed with Howard's matchup, he actually had the same idea as Howard. He looked down on Roy from Asia.
In his eyes, Okafor of Duke University in the NCAA finals only lost to Roy by a little bit.
Then, according to the formula, Howard should be about the same as Roy.
Unfortunately, they didn't take into account Roy's intensive training in the past two months.
Roy's goal after goal, even a fool could see that it was a one-sided advantage.
Fortunately, in order to avoid unnecessary high-intensity confrontation and avoid injury, Roy did not defend Howard seriously, so he was beaten a few times.
Howard saved some face.
He regained his confidence again, thinking that Roy was just a guy who was strong on offense but weak on defense.
It was Roy's turn to face Okafor in the next game.
This guy had learned a lesson, and he was cautious in defending Roy.
He didn't provoke, but showed himself honestly. Unexpectedly, the effect was surprisingly good.
It was just a tryout, so I couldn't not give him face. I beat him to death. Moreover, only the Magic had no desire to show his performance.
Especially the Magic manager's inexplicable disdainful look throughout the game. Anyone with a discerning eye could see how Roy beat the other two inside players with ease.
The other party obviously didn't see it, and the stupid senior management didn't need to. Although Roy wanted the No. 1 pick, he would definitely not have a peaceful life after joining the Magic, so he secretly gave up this plan.
The next tryout was jointly organized by the Bulls, Bobcats and Wizards.
This time it was once. Roy was ruthless.
On both offense and defense, Howard was beaten to a panic.
Okafor lost all the confidence he had just regained.
The Bobcats, who had the Black Jesus Michael Dunk on the sidelines, hinted to Roy's agent Fegan that he was optimistic about Roy.
Fegan was quite happy. If Roy ran for the second pick, it would be a good choice.
The Bulls, holding the third pick, seemed a little uninterested. They were not very interested in the three centers this year.
Their annual tradition began again, focusing on finding Jordan's successor.
During the tryout, although Ben Gordon's body shape was not very similar, the two sides inexplicably fell in love.
Looking at the whole court, it seemed that only Ben Gordon was worthy of them using the third pick.
Looking back to 1984, they selected Michael Dunk with the third pick and then dominated an era. The manager of the Bulls still can't help reminiscing about it.
The Wizards, who hold the fifth pick, are worried, as if none of the above people have anything to do with them.
Fortunately, Livingston, the strongest high school guard in the United States, seems to be in demand. Why don't I try him?
He is the same height as McGrady, and he is just as elegant. If the bet is right, it will be a big profit!
Each team has its own plan.
Roy also received invitations for tryouts from non-lottery teams, but he rejected them one by one.
You dare to invite me at any level.
It is impossible for someone like me to fall outside the lottery area. You have to face yourself. If you want me, go trade for a high pick!
Roy ran around the tryouts of the top 8 lottery teams.
According to Feigen's private contacts with various teams, the top five picks are already in the bag.
Black Jesus McDunk, who has the second pick, hinted that Roy smiled and could not deny it.
Because he knew that the draft had targeted Jordan and bought him back, and the villa was by the sea!
He may be the best player, but among NBA team managers, he is undoubtedly the last. Especially from the perspective of draft picks, he is a god, and a god of bad luck.
He even bought the entire Bobcats just to satisfy his desire to be a manager, just like buying a large toy.
However, he got a blessing in disguise. The team was later sold, and his net worth increased several times.
This is also one of Jordan's successful investments that people talk about in the investment field.
Soon, life returned to peace.
Roy had moved out of USC, rented a big house with a private gym, and started training day and night.
McInnis went to several teams outside the lottery for tryouts. After coming back, he was stimulated and took the initiative to ask Roy to train.
Training with a partner will not be so boring. Every day will pass quickly with someone together.
McInnis' hard training paid off. In the subsequent tryouts, several teams threw himAn olive branch was extended.
On June 25, at Madison Square Garden in New York,
This arena with the highest market value in the NBA is about to welcome the 2004 draft.
Before the game, Roy was invited to the green room. This was the same as all the media had predicted, so there was nothing surprising about it.
NBA Commissioner David Stern hosted the event himself.
This old man is the man who promoted the NBA to the world. He is the best commissioner in NBA history. He brought the NBA to an unprecedented height.
In particular, his strategic vision is uninterrupted and leads the way, which is 50 stories higher than that of Silver.
Think about the NBA 20 years later, which was made a mess by his own appointed Silver.
Competitive games openly introduced gambling, so winning or losing was meaningless. The later NBA was more like a script, which made those money-making bookmakers make a lot of money.
If the old man knows about this in his grave, I wonder if Newton can hold down the old man's coffin.
The draft started soon. David Stern held the Magic envelope.
Everyone in the green room sat up straight. The most tense and anticipated part began.
"Ding ding" Roy's mobile phone received a text message from his agent Feigen:
"The plan has changed. The Magic chose Dwight Howard."
Sure enough, after a while, David Stern read out Dwight Howard's name.
He winked at Roy proudly. The meaning was very clear. No matter how strong the offense was, I was the No. 1 pick!
Roy had a blank expression. The weird senior management of the Magic team voted publicly in the newspaper before the draft, calling it obedience to public opinion.
In the case of more black people in Orlando, Howard narrowly won the vote.
So there was this dramatic scene of the Magic team.
The draft was all based on voting, so what was the team manager doing?
Some netizens reminded: The manager's job is to initiate voting!
Roy was speechless. What the stupid netizens said made sense.
Howard Xin excitedly went on stage and shook hands with David Stern,
A bright smile rippled on his face, unable to hide his excitement.
Next, it was the turn of the Charlotte Bobcats.
Jordan, who is still a minority shareholder, attended the first draft in the history of the Bobcats.
After thinking for a long time, Jordan, who trusted his old rival Duke in college, hesitated for a long time between Roy and Okafor, and finally chose Okafor.
Black Jesus broke his promise, and Roy's agent was so angry that he squeezed the mineral water bottle into a ball.
Sure enough, Jordan's draft vision has always been stable and has always been bad.
The Bulls, who were the third pick, were a little nervous. The Bulls manager never dreamed that Roy would fall out of the top two. Then should I still want Ben Gordon, my successor to Jordan?
This almost made the Bulls manager's hair shatter.
When he tried to look at Ben Gordon again from a professional perspective,
the phone rang at the right time. The Nets made an offer to the Bulls that they could not refuse.
Corey Kidds plus the No. 5 pick in exchange for the Bulls' No. 3 pick plus Tyson Chandler.
The Bulls knew that the Clippers, who had the No. 4 pick, were not interested in Ben Gordon. As long as the No. 3 pick selected Roy for the Nets, the team would basically get Kidds for free.
The Bulls did not care about Chandler, because since the arrival of the Little Shark Eddy Curry, Chandler's position has become increasingly marginalized.
The insignificant person was exchanged for the backcourt rotation and experience that the team urgently needed. This account this season was not a loss at all.
Kidders can contribute 13+4+3 per game this season.
Kenyon Martin was traded by the Nets to the Nuggets in exchange for the No. 5 draft pick and two future first-round picks.
In order to get All-Star forward Kenyon Martin, the Nuggets first traded the No. 5 draft pick and then paid their own two future first-round picks, which can be said to be a huge investment.
The Nuggets' goal is very clear, which is to stock up the front line to fight against the West, Duncan, Garnett, Webber, Nowitzki and other power forwards.
In their view, the Nets, who have an amazing record in the East, are inseparable from Kenyon Martin's amazing performance. Jason Kidd strongly praised this statement.
As soon as the Nuggets agreed to the deal, the Nets manager called the Bulls manager.
The Bulls manager only thought about it for less than 20 seconds and agreed to the deal he regretted most in his life. Every time he thought about it later, he wanted to slap himself in the face!
