Chapter 388 When will the expected name appear~? !

There are completely two worlds in front of the draft and behind the scenes.

In front of the stage, the audience and the participating players sat there quietly, waiting for the selection of each team.

Crowds waited for their home team's picks, and players waited for a chance to don a team hat and come on stage to shake Stern's hand.

But not all rookies who enter the draft have such opportunities.

Generally speaking, the front of the stage is relatively quiet and peaceful.

But behind the scenes it was a completely different story.

The scouting teams of each team are busy in their own office areas, or want to trade with other teams, or start to select players, they race against time, in order to achieve the best result for the team.

Dawei and Lan Shengli, who were waiting in front of the TV, were also looking forward to what they thought was the best result.

That is, the Chinese players Yi Jianlian and Gasol Jr. were selected as early as possible.

The top five picks have passed, and it's the sixth pick.

"In the 2007 NBA draft, the sixth pick in the first round, the Milwaukee Bucks chose Yi~Jian~lian~ from Guangdong, China!!!"

Just when Dawei said that he didn't want the Bucks to choose Yi Jianlian, the Bucks chose Yi Jianlian.

Stern said Yi Jianlian's name in that very awkward tone.

"Yeah!!!!!!"

Madison Square Garden also received a lot of cheers, even higher than that of Jeff Green and Conley before, perhaps because of Yi Jianlian's special status as a yellow race, an Asian, and a Chinese~! !

Since Yao Ming in 2002, there have been no Chinese in the draft. Today, Yi Jianlian has filled this vacancy.

And because Yao Ming was injured before and did not go to the scene, Yi Jianlian became the first Chinese player in the history of Chinese basketball to go to the scene of the draft, put on a hat, and shake hands with Stern.

Before Yi Jianlian officially entered the NBA, he had already created his own history.

"Hey, haha~!! I really want to plant flowers so that they won't bloom, but I don't intend to plant willows and willows to make shade~!!!"

Dawei looked at the TV, shook hands with Stern, and Yi Jianlian, who smiled confidently at the camera, sighed.

"The sixth pick is really a very high pick. You can look at the level of the players ahead of him. Players like Yi Jianlian who have never played in the American basketball circle , was selected with such a high pick, which shows that the Bucks really value Yi Jianlian~!!"

Lan Shengli still analyzed calmly.

"I believe that the Bucks value Yi Jianlian's basketball value more than his commercial value. Although Milwaukee is a relatively small place, for Yi Jianlian, it is still such a high pick that a team can choose him. It is also an affirmation to him, it is a good thing for him to be able to enter the NBA~!!"

Lan Shengli continued.

"Hey, the sixth pick is really good, but this team is not likable. Even if it is the Timberwolves who fall behind, it is best to be the Kings, that's fine~!! Sacramento is not very far from Los Angeles. You can often go to the game, but when you go to Milwaukee, you can only wait for the Bucks to play the Lakers or Clippers away, which is a fly in the ointment,,, "

Dawei sighed.

"Being selected by the team does not mean that he will definitely play for him. There have been rookies who refused to sign before. Let's see how Yi Jianlian's team will deal with it. I think we should be more sincere and sign with the team. After all, the NBA It’s not a place where you can come and go whenever you want~!!”

Lan Shengli continued to sigh.

"Hey, that's right, you can gain a foothold in the NBA before you can have the capital to negotiate with the team. No matter what, next season the NBA will have another thing to watch besides the Rockets~!!"

Dawei continued.

"Yeah, the game between the Rockets and the Bucks, and the Chinese derby at that time will definitely attract crowds~!"

Lan Shengli also sighed.

The two people were talking, and the draft continued.

"In the 2007 NBA Draft, the seventh pick in the first round, the Minnesota Timberwolves chose,,,"

"The eighth pick in the first round,"

"The ninth pick in the first round,"

Stern read the letter again and again, reading each new player entering the NBA.

Of course, after all, he is still in the "Little Green House" pick, so Gasol Jr. will definitely not appear.

"I think we can go to have dinner. When we come back, maybe Gasol hasn't been selected~!"

Because Yi Jianlian had already been selected, Dawei's expression relaxed and he spoke with a slightly mocking tone.

"Soon, soon,,"

Lan Shengli did not refute anything, but simply responded.

"In the 2007 NBA draft, the 14th overall pick in the first round, the Los Angeles Clippers chose ~, Al Thornton ~!!"

Soon, Lan Shengli's "old club" also made their choice. With the 14th pick in their hands, they selected Al Thornton, a striker from Florida State University.

"Shorton~?! What did Brooks think~?! Why did he make such a choice~?! Fernandez hasn't been selected yet~!! This choice is a bit incomprehensible~!!"

Lan Shengli said with a questioning expression.

"Although I don't know much about Thornton, but judging by his size, he should be a forward player, but the Clippers already have Maggette and other players in this position. What they currently lack most is the guard line~! In this way, the investigation work of Brooks and I was all in vain~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to question.

"Hey, do you still think about this~?! The Clippers are not just a scout for Brooks, it must be the report of other scouts, or something, which impressed the management and made the team decide to choose this player Yes~!!"

Dawei said.

"Well, it's also possible, but it's a pity that Fernandez was not chosen, but it has nothing to do with me anymore,"

Lan Shengli continued.

"Yeah, you still care about it, your little Spanish brother, when will he be selected~!!!"

Dawei sighed.

The draft is still going on, and the picks after the first round have not heard the name of "Little Gasol" being called out by Stern.

"Mark, you will have a chance, you will~!"

Lan Shengli prayed.

"When will my name appear~!!"

Here little Gasol sat in front of the TV, his tone also melancholy.

I am no longer as confident as I was when I first started.

Soon, the second round began.
