Chapter 5 2007 NBA Draft

Author: Dust and Flowing Years

Soon, on June 28, the draft was held at the Madison Square Garden Theater as scheduled.

"Taylor, why are you here at the talent show? Are you preparing for a concert?" Li Tian came to New York and found out that Taylor also came to New York.

"I'm ready, and I'm here to support you when I have time." Taylor said happily.

"Taylor, let me introduce you to you. This is Yao Ming, and this is my teammate Horford."

"Hello, Yao Ming, Horford." Taylor said hello and stopped talking next to Li Tian.

"Li, I don't know how they line up. I think who you should be more likely to enter the 'Little Green House'? Are their eyes scared?" Horford complained sincerely.

"Haha, Arenas lost the election, is it different? It doesn't matter, the ranking cannot determine everything." Li Tian doesn't care, his ability has nothing to do with the draft pick.

After saying that, Horford went to the ‘Little Green House’.

"Brother Yao, why are you here too?" Li Tian remembered that Yao Ming should have returned to China.

"This is not. This year, Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue and you both participated in the talent show. Yi Jianlian will come here later. He is going to enter the 'little green house'. I also want to witness the prosperity of the Tianchao basketball world. The Tianchao TV station's memory is also here.

I've been interviewed and I can introduce you to you later." Yao Ming was very happy. He was no longer lonely. With more people from the Celestial Empire, he had the opportunity to enter the NBA, and his future was promising.

"Haha, Brother Yao, I thought you came to me to sign the contract. Have you prepared a CBA contract for me?" Li Tian teased Yao Ming.

When Taylor heard this, his heart tightened, and a look of loss appeared on his face, but it quickly passed.

Looking at Li Tian and Yao Ming nervously, she learned the Celestial God and can now understand their simple communication.

"Li Tian, ​​have you received the draft promise? Why did you go to the CBA?" Taylor was too nervous and interrupted.

"Taylor, he is joking with me. Your Chinese deeds are very good." Yao Ming knew that Taylor didn't see that the two were joking, so he quickly explained with a smile.

Yao Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Tian, ​​as if asking Li Tian, ​​"What's the situation? How do you know her? And her Celestial Chinese Speech is so good?"

"Oh, that's it, then I understand." Taylor got the answer he wanted, so he retreated behind Li Tian and stopped talking.

"Li Tian, ​​I'll introduce them to you later." Yao Ming did not enter the draft house of the special mosaic team, but chose to chat with Li Tian outside.

The two of them talked a lot, life, basketball, and the future.

Finally, he talked about Taylor's song. Taylor became energetic in an instant, listening to the two of them chatted with concentration, looking forward to their evaluation of themselves, and waiting for the teacher to evaluate themselves like a primary school student.

"Good evening, ladies, welcome fans from all over the country, as well as fans of the country watching on TNT and Canadian fans watching on CBCTV, welcome to attend the 2007 NBA Draft held in Madison, welcome to join you.

We, and some fans who are rushing here, thank you for your attendance."

Stern is still like he has been with his familiar lines for decades, and his style remains the same.

Li Tian, ​​who was sitting in the audience, was still filled with a thrill of enthusiasm and felt a sense of enthusiasm. My youth came back.

Before Stern finished speaking, there were booing in the audience. The audience in New York hated Stern very much. The Knicks had not signed the No. 1 pick for too many years.

"The next thing we started was that the 2007 NBA No. 1 pick was from the Portland Trail Blazers, who had five minutes to make the decision."

Stern announced the start of the draft.

"Li, who do you think will become the No. 1 pick this year?" asked Li Tian University teammate Tao Lin-Green.

"Green, you should ask the No. 1 pick, we are the No. 1 picks in 2002." Li Tian joked, this is teasing Yao Ming again.

Li Tian even suspected that he was a little sick and liked to see Yao Ming's embarrassing face.

"I think it's Durant. His talent is very strong, and Oden has been injured." Yao Ming believes that injury has a great impact on players, and for drafts, Li Tian is the best example.

"No, I think it's Oden. His talent is too strong, no one will be willing to miss it." Li Tian knew that the Trail Blazers chose Oden. Even if it was replaced by himself, he would still choose Oden instead of Du

Rand, Oden's talent makes no choice but to give any chance to get his team.

Five minutes later, Stern walked onto the stage again.

"I announced that the Portland Trail Blazers chose the first pick in the first round of the NBA in 2007, 2.13-meter center Greg Oden, who is from Ohio State."

Stern announced the final result and Trail Blazers fans began to welcome Oden.

After announcing Portland's choice, the Seattle Supersonics draft house finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Will Supersonics choose your teammate?" Yao Ming saw that Li Tian successfully guessed the No. 1 pick.

"They should choose Durant."

Supersonics chose Durant. When Li Tian saw Durant step on stage, he was still very angry because Durant's own career was almost ruined. Fortunately, he got the system.

I will definitely avenge this revenge. Durant has become Li Tian’s first enemy to enter the NBA.

Then Horford was selected by the Eagles.

When Horford stepped onto the stage, he looked at Li Tian and nodded vigorously.

"Li Tian, ​​do you think you will be selected in that ranking for Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue, and your ranking?" Yao Ming looked a little unnatural when he saw Li Tian just now.

"I think they should be able to choose them all. I remember that there was news that the Bucks were ready to choose him."

Without Li Tian's words, Yi Jianlian was selected for the Bucks in the sixth pick.

It can be seen that when Yi Jianlian's name was called, Yao Ming was also very excited.

"Brother Yao, you are no longer alone. Yi Jianlian's ranking is just a little behind you."

"Haha, I'm really happy. I don't know if he can hit it."

Li Tian knew that Yi Jianlian had to bear too much development, but even if he gave him his own advice, Yi Jianlian would not accept it. Let's talk about it later.

"I hope he can fight."

More than an hour has passed, and the first round draft has been settled. The University of Florida was selected for four players in the first round, which can be regarded as a small creation of team history.

"Your team is very strong and you deserve the NCAA championship. Four people have entered the first round, and what is even more surprising is that three people have entered the lottery zone." Yao Ming was also surprised.

, The champion is not so easy to get, and I understand why Oden is said to be more talented and fight against such a powerful opponent alone.

"It's almost the second round, Li Tian, ​​why are you a little nervous?" Green still saw that Li Tian was a little nervous.

The Celtics' second round draft pick is about to arrive.

Bill also came over, and he also hoped that Li Tian would be selected soon.

"Li, don't be nervous, several teams have made promises."

The draft continued, and the second round of reading began, and this was soon.

"The second pick in the second round, the Boston Celtics announced that they chose Gabe Pruitt, who is 1.93 meters tall."

When Li Tian heard that the Celtics chose the defender, he knew that Anji's promise had no meaning anymore.

"Li, don't be nervous. I will contact Anji immediately and ask what the reason is."

Bill Duffy called Angie continuously, but no one answered.

"It's okay Lee, there's the Cavaliers behind it, they'll trade and choose you."

Bill Duffy left here and continued to contact Angie. At the same time, he also asked the Cavaliers about their next arrangements. He knew that the Cavaliers did not have a draft pick this year. If they did not trade, they would not choose Li Tian.

The draft continues.

When he reached the 39th pick, Li Tian kept swallowing the saliva. This was the Miami Heat's draft pick. I wonder if Riley would choose him.

Another blow.

When it reached the 40th pick, the Lakers chose Sun Yue.

Yao Ming was very happy. Another person was selected, but he did not show it. After all, Li Tian has not been selected for this ranking so he was a little worried about Li Tian.

"Li, I really don't know what the management of these teams are doing. Are they all stupid? Why don't you choose?" Horford ended the interview and came to Li Tian's side again.

Horford complained for Li Tian. Now Li Tian has guessed that the Cavaliers will not trade draft picks this year and choose themselves.

Bill Duffy is back, too.

"Sorry, Lee, Anguitar didn't keep his promise, they seemed to be brewing big deals, they felt your position overlapped with the rest of the team, and they were worried about knee injuries, so at the last minute, Anji

I regretted it, I'm sorry, I."

The agent has a wide connection, so does Bill, and he soon found out the reason.

He also realized that the Heat did not choose Li Tian. He was a little upset that he should not agree to them at that time and asked them to announce the news to the public.

"It's okay Bill, I'm ready to play in the summer league. You can help me contact me in advance. Of course, for these teams, forget it, I won't go where they are again."

Begin to prepare for the defeat.

Yao Ming and Horford both said that they would contact the team and let him participate in the summer league of their team.

I didn't want to stay any longer, but I still held hope.

"Lee, it's bad news. The Cavaliers management said that they hope that the team can continue to strengthen, and they need combat power, no need for rookies, and they don't want to accept rookies with hidden injuries." Bill regretted it very much.

I should have done more trial training at the beginning, so this won’t be the case.

"It's okay." Li Tian wrote down Angie, James and Riley, and he must slap them in the face in the future.

Immediately afterwards, Green was also selected by the Portland Trail Blazers at the 52nd pick.

"Congratulations, Green." Send your blessing to Green.

I also gave up my hope for this draft.

Angie and Riley also contacted Bill Duffy, but they were both killed by Li Tian. This grudge has already arisen and it is impossible for him to make up for it.
