I have a lot of skills in the NBA

Chapter 46 The Destined Order (Please collect recommendation tickets)

Time is slowly passing by, and when the Los Angeles Clippers, holding the 12th pick, select Miles Bridges from Michigan State University, the lottery draft will come to an end, leaving only two seats.

At this time, Li Yang and the others who were sitting in the small green room felt like they were sitting on pins and needles. There were only fourteen seats in the lottery show, and more than fourteen people were invited to enter the small green room.Therefore, those who are not selected are bound to be embarrassed!

The 5-minute wait this time is very long, especially for the players who are still in the small green room.

At this time, Li Yang could only look at the rostrum, hoping for a miracle.There are only two seats left in the lottery show, and the chances are getting less and less. He is so nervous that his palms are sweating.

Finally, after nearly a century of long waiting, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver walked out of the backstage again in the anticipation of everyone.

"The 2018th pick in the first round of the NBA in 13, the Los Angeles Clippers chose..."

Still the same smell, still the iconic smile, and that maddening iconic pause.

Li Yang's heart rose to his throat, his hands firmly grasped the armrest of the seat, his eyes stared straight at Xiao Hua on the stage, expecting Xiao Hua to read his name.

"Li Yang, a point guard from Shenzhen No. [-] Middle School in China."

"Huh"

In an instant, all the teachers and students in the gymnasium of Shenzhen No. [-] Middle School went crazy.

Li Yang's good friend Wu Qian was the first to jump up from his seat, waved his fists excitedly, and screamed at the sky. The next second, the entire gymnasium erupted, and everyone cheered excitedly. As a high school in China, they unexpectedly became an NBA player, and they made history.

"Yeah! Yay! Yay!"

In An Ran's home, An Ran jumped up, couldn't help but yelled excitedly, and then wept with joy.

An Ran shed tears of happiness, hugged her best friend Li Yan, and cheered: "Li Yang was selected by the Clippers, he was selected by the Clippers. Haha, Li Yang is going to play in the NBA, I am so happy!"

At the same time, when Adam Silver said these words, countless Huaxia fans who were guarding in front of the computer instantly went crazy.

Li Yang is completely unaware of all this happening in the country.When happiness came, he felt that he was hit by a pie with a "boom", his mind went blank, and everything around him seemed to disappear.

Seeing that Li Yang was still sitting in a daze, Duffy patted him hard.

"Is it me, is it really me? I was finally selected, and I was selected at the 13th overall!!!"

Li Yang grabbed the shoulders of manager Bill Duffy excitedly, then shook vigorously,

"Stop shaking it, it's you, it's you! If you shake it any longer, my old bones will fall apart!" Bill Duffy tried to persuade the other party to calm down intermittently.

Only then did Li Yang come back to his senses, and when he looked up, he saw that all the cameras were pointed at him, and everyone around him was looking at him, and not far away, fans of the Los Angeles Clippers were screaming excitedly.

The 13th pick, Li Yang was also very surprised to be selected in this pick, this is a magical pick.

The 13th pick is definitely a magic pick.Logically speaking, the success rate of this pick should not be higher than that of the top ten picks. However, not only historical superstars such as Malone and Kobe have been born in the 13th pick, but also talents have emerged in recent years, like LaVine, Booker and Mitchell. They all came from the 13th pick in the first round.

Clippers, this will be the most correct choice you have made, Li Yang clenched his fists hard and muttered firmly.

"Fake!!"

"Oumaiga!"

"He's going to Los Angeles." Sexton and Alexander, who were talking, were immediately stunned when they heard the news, but they were going to two remote places, Cleveland and Charlotte.

Where is Los Angeles?Are Charlotte and Cleveland comparable? ! !
There is no harm if there is no comparison. The superiority of the two people who were selected ahead of Li Yang was smashed in an instant, and the high ranking immediately became unsatisfactory.

The parents stood up and gave Li Yang a hug.It wasn't until this time that he fully recovered. He was really selected, and now he is a member of the NBA. Duffy's operation has been successful.

And it seems to be much better than expected!
Duffy also gave Li Yang a hug. During the hug, Duffy said calmly, "I told you not to worry, everything is under my control."

"Yang, go up!"

"Ok!"

Li Yang patted him on the shoulder, then turned and walked towards the rostrum.

At this time, a staff member came to him and handed him a baseball cap with the Los Angeles Clippers logo on it.

The size of the hat was a little too big, probably because he didn't expect the Clippers to choose Li Yang. Li Yang could only adjust the button on the back of the hat while walking, and walked towards the rostrum.

After feeling the cheers from the audience, he smiled and waved to the audience on both sides.

No matter what, the temperament must be handled firmly! !
Of course, as he walked forward, he could feel the envious eyes from the players who were still sitting in the green room without being drafted. After all, his selection meant that there was only one lottery spot left.

At this time, whoever is the most embarrassed player sitting in the small green room is Michael Porter.His pick has fallen all the way from the initial No. [-] pick, and he is about to fall out of the lottery zone.

Li Yang stepped onto the rostrum and shook hands with Xiao Hua.It was the first time that Li Yang observed the president of NAB so closely, and found that he and Stern belonged to two completely different personalities.

Stern gives the impression that he is a stubborn old man who likes to preach, has a bad temper, and is arbitrary.

Adam Silver gives people the impression of being gentle and gentle, with a kind tone (in fact, he is a smiling tiger, a gentle scum), and he is a person who can see the overall situation while talking and laughing.

"Congratulations, young man, how do you feel now?" Xiao Hua asked while extending his hand.

"It feels great," Li Yang said, "First of all, I can finally realize my dream of playing in the NBA, and second, I joined a team that is very suitable for me, so this feeling will be even better."

"I'm really excited. I'm a player with a strong desire to win. I like the feeling of winning. The Clippers now have a very good personnel composition. I think Alexander and I can quickly integrate into the team. I hope we can strive to enter the playoffs. I am born to win, thank you." Li Yang said with a smile.

"Very good, I look forward to your performance." Xiao Hua saw his nervousness and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

Li Yang nodded, and the two held hands tightly together again, then Li Yang nodded, and immediately unbuttoned his suit when he turned around, revealing the national flag inside.

The two faced the flashing lights off stage one after another, this moment will be remembered forever!

"Kakkaka!!"

Facing the cameras, Li Yang showed his iconic smile.As a handsome guy, Li Yang is very photogenic.

Then Li Yang walked off the stage, came to the media visiting area next to him, and accepted the reporter's interview.

Unlike the fans, the Los Angeles reporters were obviously very surprised that Li Yang was selected by the Clippers with the 13th overall pick. This greatly exceeded their expectations. They felt that Li Yang was pressed hard on the ground, rubbed against the ground, and slapped his face.

"Yang, do you think it would be a mistake for the Clippers to select you with the 13th pick?" The reporter from the Los Angeles Times asked a very sharp question with a strong smell of gunpowder.

"Of course not, this will be the luck of this city." Li Yang said without hesitation.

……

Li Yang was selected by the Los Angeles Clippers. The Spurs general manager Kobe Altman was completely dumbfounded. What drove him crazy was that he was about to reach a negotiation with great difficulty, and in the end he was amputated by the Clippers. This made him fly into a rage and doubt his life!
After Li Yang was interviewed, the Clippers staff soon came to pick him up, including the Clippers general manager Dave Wall who selected him and owner Steve Ballmer.

Although it was a surprise to be selected with the 13th overall pick, he still had some doubts about the Clippers' choice. At that time, the Clippers were more interested in Jerome Robinson during the trial training, and they were just superficially polite to him.

But the doubts are all doubts. My future general manager and boss greeted me, and I knew what to do after thinking about it. He was naturally an avatar, and he went up to shake hands and hug with excitement.

After the process was over, he suddenly remembered the shock in his head at the end of the draft, and the feeling is still very clear now.

Obviously it wasn't that he had a convulsion or a concussion, the only possibility was the system.

He clicked on the god-level skill exchange system interface, and he found a red exclamation mark on the side of the taskbar panel.It seems that the previous brain shock is probably because of this exclamation mark.

He clicked on the exclamation point, and at this moment, a very familiar mission symbol appeared in front of his eyes.

"Ding dong! Congratulations to the host for officially stepping into the gate of the NBA, and now the task is issued!"

Stage task: Win the best rookie of the 2018-2019 season. "

Current task: "Rookie takes off".

Task requirements: win the first summer league win and score 30+ points in a single game.

"Phase task reward: 1 lucky draw opportunity for s-level skills of the specified category (category can be specified).

Current task reward: 1 lucky draw card.

"Well, it turned out that the system mall was officially opened only after logging in to the NBA, which made me almost suspect that I had opened a fake system."

Three days later, the Clippers will hold a press conference for Li Yang and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.That's right, you read that right, another player is Alexander who was cast out of the shadow by Li Yang, and Alexander who was traded from the Hornets by the Clippers.

Alexander was selected by the Charlotte Hornets with the 11th overall pick in this year's draft, but was then exchanged with the Clippers' 12th overall pick and a future second-round pick.

When Alexander knew that he was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers, the whole person seemed very excited.At this time, Sexton, a good friend next to him, suddenly patted him sympathetically: "Brother, it seems that Li Yang is also on the Clippers!!!!"

"Eulixite!!!"

"How could this happen!" Alexander held his head in his hands and muttered, still unable to believe this cruel fact.

"No, I can still save it. I'll hug my thigh in a while! I think he will definitely agree!!" After finishing speaking, Alexander smiled triumphantly.
