After Duncan was selected, a collection of Duncan's college years was playing on the big screen.

To be honest, Duncan played very well in college.

Flying in the sky, strong dunk, there are everything.

Unlike in the NBA in the future, there are only a few shots that are infinitely looped: hitting the board, touching the head, hitting the board, touching the head, laughing, and a big windmill...

The draft continued, with the second pick, and the Philadelphia 76ers selected Keith Van Horn, who is known as the second Larry Bird.

As a man with the second highest pick in the draft after Duncan, Van Horn's popularity in the beautiful country is well known.

In order to mislead the Spurs to choose Van Horn, Auerbach even blew him to the sky.

But the old thief Vicci smiled slightly: "You bad old man, I believe you a ghost!"

If the old thief Vicci doesn't believe it does not mean that others don't believe it.

There is no way, the second name like Bird is so famous.

Not to mention 1997, even in 2006, the name "Second Larry Bird" is still quite intimidating.

Haven't you seen the old hooligan let Roy go in 2006, and Guy and others didn't choose, but he chose Adam Morrison, who was known as the successor of Bird, in the third pick.

Just play.

In fact, Van Horn should have been a member of the 96 Golden Generation.

But because he wanted to take care of his child who had just learned to walk, he temporarily decided to postpone the draft until 1997.

Look, what is a good man?

This guy is really uncontested and devotes himself to his family.

This seems to be destined, and he will not achieve much in his career.

Of course, it is not that the Gu family's men definitely can't play basketball well, but that this guy has no ambition at all.

In the third pick, Lu Kai could only win Chauncey Billups with tears in his eyes.

At this time, the flounder on the stage was killed and unexpectedly, as a young man, he would be sold off by Lu Kai after only half a season, starting his wandering career.

There is no way, and it is not surprising that Green Kai does not value Billups, mainly because Green Kai's goal has always been Duncan. For Duncan, Green Kai scored a crazy 15 wins and 67 losses last season.

However, Stern is absolutely impossible for Green Kai to get Duncan.

Stern would never allow himself to fail in this war with Auerbach.

So Billups was just a spare tire from the beginning.

How did you say that sentence?

Some people are born in Rome, while others are born in cattle and horses.

Thinking of Billups' twists and turns in his career, Li Ang couldn't help but look at the big book beside him.

Things are really impermanent.

Who would believe that they ended up getting together in the 1996 draft and in the 1997 Treasury?

In this way, he reached the seventh pick. The Toronto Raptors, who had just been established for only two years, won the best high school student of the year, Tracy McGrady.

Although the draft pick has changed, the person selected by the Raptors has not changed.

When he heard Stern chanting McGrady's name, Da Ben almost laughed out loud.

"Why did you choose a girl's name?"

According to the bet, Li Ang won $50 from Da Ben.

Looking at the knife in his hand, Li Ang couldn't laugh.

no......

Why did it become the seventh pick?

Could it be that it is because of my arrival that affected the results of the draft lottery?

Yes, no one dares to guarantee that the result will be exactly the same even if the draft draws are done again.

With the Raptors' record last season, whether they were seventh or ninth, they were actually within a reasonable range.

Thinking about it now, the kind of draft picks written in the novel are almost the same as those in the original history every year, which is actually extremely unreasonable.

This is a bit fucked, which means that there may be more or less deviations in every subsequent draft.

Although this deviation may not be too large, sometimes this subtle deviation is enough to bring huge changes to history.

Think about it, what would happen if the Knicks became the seventh pick and took Curry early in the 2009 draft?

If the Heat won the No. 1 pick in the 2008 draft, then where will Ross go? The combination of Wade + Ross is enough to attract another superstar to join.

If the Supersonics won the No. 1 pick in the 2007 draft, would they still choose the king of temperament?

Li Ang swallowed his saliva, and it was terrifying to think about it carefully.

The basketball world I am about to face may be completely different from the one I was originally familiar with!

"Come on, one day, I hope I can see you and Stern shake hands on the TV, Lee."

After watching the talent show, Da Ben turned off the TV and encouraged his unscrupulous junior brother.

Li Ang wants to be selected, but now...

He hasn't even settled the place to play next season.

After the training the next morning, Oakley called Leon alone into the locker room during lunch break.

Li Ang thought Oakley was in high spirits and wanted to practice alone with him.

As a result, when he entered, he found Oakley holding a cigar in his mouth, posing as a big shot.

"Li, did you watch yesterday's draft?"

"Yeah, I've seen it."

"Are you envious?"

"What's the use of envy? I'm now..."

"Well, I'm just about to ask you, have you received an invitation from the NCAA Division I League team?"

"Not yet." Li Ang shrugged, and he also knew that his hope of playing in the first-tier league was already very slim.

Although I have made great progress now, no one knows. College scouts will only evaluate Li Ang’s performance in high school.

"It's okay, let me tell you the truth. Daben and I have never played in the first-tier league game back then.

So it is not the end of not being able to go to the first-level league for the time being, but I don’t recommend you to play in the second-level league.

I was eating stool, and I remember that I was able to be selected in the ninth pick when I played in the second division.

But Da Ben fought so hard in the second-level league, but he was eventually defeated.

After losing the election, he went abroad to play basketball and was cheated by the group of bitches. He didn't get a penny of salary. He spent a lot of effort to return to the NBA.

And because it was a draft pick, your brother’s salary last season was only $250,000.

In this era, second-level alliances are no longer a good choice.

Listening to Li Ang, I think you have great potential and ruthlessness, and you are the material for playing basketball.

Therefore, I don’t want you to go around the wrong way like Daben.

If you really want to play the NBA, then I recommend you to play from junior college and play the NJCAA."

After so many days of contact with Oakley, this is the first time that Li Ang has seen this LSP expression so seriously, and it doesn't look like he is joking.

"NJCAA?" As a senior fan in his previous life, Li Ang also had a certain understanding of NJCAA.

NJCAA is a sports league composed of major junior colleges across the United States. According to the way Chinese people can easily understand it, it can be regarded as a junior college league below the NCAA.

"Don't rush to refute me first. I know that with your grades, there is no problem in going to college.

But if you want to play, there is no benefit to go to the second division.

Students in the NCAA Second Division all have one thing in common, that is, they can’t play the ball well.

But NJCAA is different. There are many talented players out there who are super high basketball skills and are simply unable to go to college because of poor grades.

Players who play in the second division may never be able to be promoted to the first division.

But as long as players who play in NJCAA pass the academic level, they will immediately send invitations to the first-tier league team. The scouts in the first-tier league are all staring at the NJCAA.

Your grades are definitely fine, so what you have to do is very simple - play dominant power in NJCAA and use it as a springboard to enter the first-level league!

In today's era, only when you enter the first-tier league to play will NBA teams pay attention to you and you will be selected. It is really difficult to be selected to play in the second-tier league.

I know there are risks, and in fact, as long as I want, I can immediately put you into Virginia United University, my alma mater and I will let you play NCAA Division II games.

But the same goes, the second-level alliance is no longer an option.

From a basketball perspective, NJCAA is your best route at the moment!”

Li Ang looked at Oakley, and to be honest, he was a little surprised.

He really didn't expect that the old Oak tree would help him with advice.

Li Ang is just one of the many students in his training camp, and he is likely to be the poorest one.

Oakley: It doesn’t matter if you are poor, the key is that you can beat the pig! I’ll be happy if you think about the scene of you beating the flying pig in the future~

Oakley has this kind of personality. As long as he thinks he has potential, he doesn't want to be buried.

This is the case with the big book back then, and so is Li Ang now.

If it weren't for Oakley, which hair salon could Daben get a haircut now?

Unexpectedly, I didn’t expect that besides playing basketball, my best thing is to cut hair.

NJCAA sounds very low-level, but in fact, Li Ang really knows a few stars who played from NJCAA.

The first person to be hit is Jimmy Butler, a guy who has an indefinite relationship with the old hooligan, played from NJCAA to NCAA first-level league, and then entered the NBA to become a star.

Jay Claude also had the same mental journey. After winning the NJCAA, he entered Marquette University and then successfully gained a foothold in the NBA.

In addition, Mr. Tony, whom Li Ang was familiar with, also made a call from NJCAA.

Lao Ge also mentioned in his book "Insider" that Tony was called the number one junior college player in the United States at that time.

In short, the probability of scoring into the NBA from NJCAA is indeed much higher than the probability of scoring into the NBA from the second-tier league.

"You think about it and discuss it with your family. If you think it's good, I can arrange a school for you immediately.

But remember, boy. There are all kinds of kids in NJCAA. There are about three reasons why people go to junior colleges. First, poor academic performance. Second, poor physical performance. Third, bad kids.

Do you understand what I mean?

You have to always keep your mission and purpose in mind and don’t learn bad things.

OK, I'll tell you so much. Go and have some rest, and I'll have to train in the afternoon."

Li Ang nodded and left the locker room. He knew that he had reached the intersection of life.

This time the choice is extremely important to him.

At this time, far away in Maryland, a middle-aged man sighed at a report card handed over by his assistant.

"So, he didn't pass the exam?"

"Yes, it's only a little bit short, but it still doesn't meet the standards."

"Oh, the best, the best poor student." The middle-aged man sighed.

Why are the achievements of talented players so poor these days?

There are really fewer and fewer talented players like Duncan who are both good at character and academics and who can talk about quantum mechanics with Admirals at the beginning of their mouths.

It's been a year since he's been waiting for this guy for a whole year.

Do you know how he spent this year?

If the results are not qualified, it means...

He has to wait another year!

"Damn it, it's so fucking!" The middle-aged man slapped the table angrily and smashed the transcript on the table.

This person is Gary Williams, the head coach of the University of Maryland Turtles.

He served in 1989 and began to achieve results in 1994.

Since 1994, he has led his team to the March Crazy Championship for three consecutive years, but the team has not been able to go further in the championship.

The reason is that the players are not strong enough.

The division where the University of Maryland is located has famous basketball schools such as Duke and North Carolina.

All the talented players were attracted by them. It is really difficult for Maryland to achieve success under the influence of these two powerful men.

So Gary Williams decided to take the initiative and kill the geniuses in the cradle... Well, no, it was when the geniuses were not in college, they held them tightly in their own hands.

Don't say that such a genius has really appeared.

So Gary asked the guy to study for the preparatory course at the University of Maryland, play in the reserve team at the University of Maryland, and train him with all his heart.

What do you think? This genius didn't get into college!

Williams had a voice in his heart at that time - holding the sun!

I keep all the scholarships for you, and you tell me you won’t pass the exam?

There was no way, Gary had to send him to NJCAA for a year.

In the first year of NJCAA, the performance of that genius really lived up to expectations and was completely killing.

His team lost a game in one season!

With his strength, there is no problem in playing in the NCAA Division I league games.

Just when everyone was looking forward to him entering the NCAA, he failed this year, and failed...

Facts have proved that reading really depends on talent. That guy probably put all his talent on basketball.

"It doesn't matter, it's good to let him play for another year. Last season, he scored an impressive record of 36 wins and 1 loss at San Jacinto Junior College. If he works hard for another year, he might get a huge improvement. At that time, you will get a complete person."

Gary's assistant comforted her.

Gary nodded, and there was nothing else he could do except wait.

Who made him a genius?

The guy who is known as the "self-discipline version of Iverson" doesn't matter if he waits for him for another year.

Of course, next season, I must remind that guy to study hard.

Knowledge changes destiny, genius!
