The Cavaliers said in an interview that other teams do not need to try out LeBron James, the best high school student in the United States from Ohio State. Their only target in this year's draft is James.

The Cavaliers are an Ohio team, and James' hometown is Akron, a small city in Samiga County on the banks of the Cuyahoga River northeast of Cleveland. Who would you choose if you didn't choose James?

Although they experienced the Kwame Brown tragedy two years ago, this time the Cavaliers announced that no one other than James was a candidate for the No. 1 pick, but not many people felt it was inappropriate.

Kwame Brown also performed very well in high school. If the team were to change to another team, even if Jordan hadn't selected him, Kwame Brown would still have been selected as the No. 1 pick. That was a senior year for high school students.

But although Kwame Brown performed well that year, he was not invincible. It was more similar to Tracy McGrady in 1997. He showed talent in high school and was famous for a year with Tyson Chandler, Eddie Curry and others.

, but relying on the success of Garnett, McGrady, Kobe and O'Neal after changing teams in the 2000-01 season, and the fact that there were really no good college students in the 2001 class, the high school candidates became very popular in 2001, with the top four picks

Except for Gasol, who was the strongest in Europe at the time, they were all high school students, and Kwame was the most talented among them.

But James is different. When the Cavaliers announced that James was the only candidate for the No. 1 pick, James' entire high school resume was revealed.

He started wandering with his mother at the age of 5, and started playing rugby to make money at the age of 9. He was injured while playing rugby at the age of 12, and had to wander with his mother again. At the age of 13, coach Walker Frank, whom James called the "godfather", found out and took him to his home.

, took James to play basketball. He was sent to St. Mary's High School by Coach Frank when he was under 15 years old. James, who was only 15 years old in his freshman year of high school, led the team to an unbeatable record of 27 wins and 0 losses, and won the championship in the Ohio Secondary High School League.

As a sophomore, he led the team to a record of 26 wins and 1 loss. James, who was under 16 years old, became the youngest first-team player in the history of the United States. In the same year, he also won the Ohio High School Football Player of the Year and Ohio Basketball Player.

James, who is 16 years old, is ranked fifth among high school students in the United States.

In his senior year, James' team advanced to the top high school league in Ohio. James led the team to a record of 23 wins and 4 losses, winning second place. He gave up rugby due to a finger injury while playing rugby, but was selected to the All-American First Team for the second consecutive year.

Won Ohio Mr. Basketball, became the best high school student in the United States, ranking first in the list of high school students in the United States.

In his senior year of high school, before the start of the season, James stated that he would not enter the NCAA but would directly enter the NBA. His mother took out a loan to buy a car. Her strength cheated her son, which violated the regulations of the National High School Basketball Association. In the first game

After the game, he was almost suspended, and then James actually won the lawsuit. James had a record of 26 wins and 1 loss in his senior year of high school. The only game he lost was the game he was sentenced to lose due to a violation of regulations. He was selected to be the No. 1 player in the United States for three consecutive years.

First team and Ohio Mr. Basketball, he also scored 52 points in a nationally broadcast game against California's strongest high school team in Los Angeles.

To describe James' high school basketball career in one word, it is - dominance! It is comparable to Kobe Bryant's performance in high school.

After Liu Mang finished the team meeting in the morning, he read the newspaper. It was all about James, covering up the glory of the playoffs. Seeing James' resume, Liu Mang couldn't help but sigh. James was too young when he was a child.

It’s hard. I have been earning money to support my family since I was 9 years old. This can be regarded as a great responsibility given by God... It’s just that a high school student is so arrogant and actually dominates the screen! He squeezed the news of the second game of the Eastern Conference finals tonight.

I went to the sub version, and I must teach this future rookie a lesson in the future.

"James must be the first pick. This guy may be as good as Kobe in the future. Ace, do we still want to play? The Cavaliers are unlikely to be affected by us. They dare not not select James." He was having lunch aside.

Jason Terry asked.

They are all outsiders, so strong in high school. Seeing Kobe's current strength, and James's physical fitness is even better, the team that got the No. 1 pick will not select him, especially the Cavaliers are James' hometown team, I guess the Cavaliers boss

Will be sprayed to death by Cleveland fans.

"Of course we have to play. We can't control who is the first pick, but we can create some trouble for them. James may be as good as Kobe, but he is not as showy as Kobe. Kobe actually invited Bu to a mere high school graduation dance.

With a big star like Randy as a dance partner, a high school student can't learn well at all." Liu Mang complained, and then asked Jason Terry seemingly casually: "By the way, Jason, you seem to be in the same class as Kobe.

A high school student?”

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"No, you look older than him..."

"Damn! Don't run away if you have the guts..."

…

On May 30, the second game of the series between the Hawks and Nets is coming.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Eagles came to the Gross Athletic Center in the small town of Rutherford to prepare for the game. After the simple tactical training, there were no other training arrangements. The players were interviewed, rested before the game, studied the opponent's video, etc.

.

Since there is a guy like Liu Mang in their team, the coaching staff is worried about their players being interviewed.

Not only were they afraid that Liu Mang would make some bold statements, but they were also afraid that other team members would be led astray by Liu Mang, and they would irritate their opponents by attacking them during interviews.

Therefore, for interviews, the players have to participate. The coaching staff will not stop them, but they will not wait eagerly for reporters to interview like other teams. Because the Eagles have Liu Mang here, they have no shortage of exposure, unlike many other teams.

Like a team, they all want to do something to expose themselves.

Fortunately, Eagles players are used to interviews. Since the second half of last season, the Eagles have been conducting interviews continuously, and they are not that keen on interviews now, except for headlines.

After Coach Kruger completed the pre-game tactical training, he was ready to wait leisurely for the evening game. He had already gained a home court advantage. The Eagles now have a psychological advantage, so Coach Kruger accepted a pre-game interview.

with a smile on his face.

Just when Coach Kruger was being interviewed, he suddenly felt a little uneasy, and then he saw that the players who had taken a shower after training did not go to rest, but formed a group and came to the training ground, and the reporters who were waiting swarmed...

Originally, after every training, although there were reporters waiting, the only ones who came to be interviewed were those who liked to show off, such as Jason Terry, Barnes, Emmanuel and others.

If Shim and Mohammed want to be more sultry, they have to be called by the press officer. Liu Mang has become more honest in recent times. Apart from a few exclusive interviews on major TV stations, he has not been in the limelight much these days.

But this time, Coach Kruger actually saw Liu Mang, Jason Terry, and Raheem taking the lead, and a group of people came together for an interview!

Coach Kruger is going crazy. This troublesome disciple hasn't done anything for almost a month. Is he trying to hold back his big move?

Oh my god! Coach Kruger is heartbroken at the moment, but he can't stop the players from being interviewed. If the players don't come and the reporters don't interview them, they will at most say that the players are acting like celebrities. Next time there is news, they will still do it.

They come all the way, but if the team comes forward and prohibits pre-match interviews, it means that the team is directly at odds with the media, and Coach Kruger doesn't want to take the blame.

So Coach Kruger could only smile on his face, with blood dripping from his heart, and get closer to listen to what nonsense Liu Mang, the bastard disciple, told these teammates to talk about.

When Coach Kruger came up to him with grief and anger, he discovered that he didn't seem to be causing trouble, but just had opinions about this year's draft!

Since the Eagles' pick was the 14th pick in the first round, the team management didn't pay much attention to the draft lottery and just looked at the final results.

Coach Kruger was half relieved, but he still didn't dare to relax completely. He was listening there, and if someone said something to irritate the Nets, he would immediately interrupt, because the interview had been going on for a while, even if it was interrupted,

It won't make the media unhappy that much.

However, Coach Kruger didn't hear anything bad at the end. The team members were collectively praising a college student whose name he had only heard of. He was a candidate for this year's draft provided to him by the scouts.

Possibly the most talented junior outside the lottery.

Coach Kruger's head was full of questions. Why are these players praising this guy? Is this guy really so good? If other teams believe this, their own team won't be able to select him!

So it's not like forcing the team to draft this rookie, it's purely to build momentum for this rookie, and they seem to have a good relationship.

This makes Coach Kruger depressed and puzzled. If you like this rookie, can't you just ask the team to select him? Although this year's 14th pick is valuable, it would be good if this guy can become a qualified substitute. The team

It doesn't lack talent, and if it's that good, it can be used for trading.

But what does it mean to praise him as if he is the number one draft pick?

And after they finished boasting, a group of people just left... left...

Coach Kruger stood there and eavesdropped, feeling like a fool. What on earth were these players trying to do?

…

…

In the late afternoon news, there was a very interesting interview video circulated on major TV stations.

More than a dozen members of the Eagles team expressed their opinions on this year's draft.

This is not an unusual thing. In a draft year like this year, there are more T1 rookies than in the previous three years combined. It has already attracted a lot of attention. It is normal for active players to express their opinions. Wait until the end of the season and before the draft.

The major TV stations themselves will interview the rookies about their opinions.

However, it seems that the people from the Eagles are collectively recommending an "unknown" college student and touting him highly!

"I heard there was a very good guy at Marquis University. Yes, during the All-Star Game, I went back to my hometown, yes, Milwaukee, and watched one of his games. It was great. He was the best I had ever seen.

The best college student ever!" This is Milwaukee-born Dean Grove, even though he moved to Charlotte before he was even a year old...

"If we had the No. 1 pick, I would suggest the management pick Wade... You don't even know who Wade is? Then you might be out of a job, he would be the No. 1 pick! He's great,

He's like Jordan who is 6 centimeters shorter!" This is Raheem.

"Do you know who I am most optimistic about in this year's draft? Dwyane Wade from Marquis University! I think he is the best rookie this year. Believe it or not, he will definitely be the first pick! Cavaliers

It'll change their minds!" This is Jason Terry.

"The Cavaliers made a wrong statement. They will definitely regret not drafting Wade, for sure!" This is Boozer.

"James and Anthony are both very good. Both of them can be selected with the first pick, but I hope they can't ignore the little brother Dwyane Wade..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

…

One by one, the Hawks players praised Wade lavishly.

Finally, finally, Liu Mang was about to speak, and all the reporters gathered around him.

"LeBron? Yes, he is great, he is my brother... Yes, we met at the McDonald's All-Star Game. His talent is much higher than mine. He deserves to be selected as the No. 1 pick, but he

Too young, I think he might be as talented as Bryant, but you see, it took Bryant two years to adapt to the NBA, I think the Cavaliers should draft Wade, Wade is great, you can watch it

Look at his game and his training attitude, he must be the first among this rookie class to become a superstar. He can directly turn the Cavaliers' current situation around like my teacher did, believe me!"
