I really just want to strike

slightly.

"With the first-round, eighth pick, the Dallas Mavericks chose—"

When hearing about the eighth pick and the Dallas Mavericks, Su Feng always felt that something was wrong.

And soon, he knew what was wrong.

Let me turn the clock back a little bit a few minutes...

Not long after the Clippers selected Lorenzen White, in the Mavericks' front war room, the Mavericks uniform team has become a mess.

Because next, it's their turn to make a choice.

However, there is still no movement in Los Angeles.

And just one day before, Jerry West just had a face-to-face meeting with the Mavericks uniform team.

"I want your first-round pick." When the guy with the logo came up, he got straight to the point.

"But Jerry, you know, this was the eighth pick in the first round in 1996."

Clemens, the new Mavericks coach who participated in the talks, laughed.

"I know, therefore, we will send Verratti - Divac to Dallas." West said calmly.

Before the old Nelson went to Dallas and before Cuban bought the Mavericks, I'm sorry, even if the Mavericks next season will have the "Dallas Three Greats", they are not afraid to poke the hearts of the bullies, they are still——

Garbage in spicy chicken.

As we all know, Dallas is notoriously racist, so this makes it difficult for the Mavericks to recruit stars.

The period when Nowitzki is about to retire after winning the championship in the future is an example. At that time, no matter how the old driver cut his salary, no superstar was willing to go to Dallas.

Until the man named 077 appeared.

Therefore, when West said he was willing to send Divac to Dallas, the Mavericks uniform team was moved.

Because the Mavericks at this time are trying to select an inside player in the draft.

What's more, an excellent white center like Divac?

However, Clemens, who felt that he was very good at negotiating, said after thinking for a while: "Verati's salary is a problem. I think you need to increase your bargaining chips."

West seemed to have already responded, "No problem, so how about I give you our second-round pick next year?"

"Next year's second-round pick?" Clemens shook his head.

"Then, I'll give Ceballos and Eddie Jones to you too."

"How about I give you the entire Los Angeles Lakers?"

After speaking, West turned around and was about to leave.

At this time, the Mavericks uniform team was in a hurry.

What an international joke, this year the Mavericks are planning to choose Samaki Walker. From the perspective of the Mavericks uniform team, Divac is more fragrant...

You know, Divac was 28 years old at this time, and he was in his prime.

In this era of more conservative thinking, in the words of the Mavericks uniform team: the Lakers are giving us a big gift package!

In Su Feng's previous life, the reason why West did not trade up for a higher pick was not only the objective fact that the first-round pick of the 96 golden generation was valuable, but another reason was that the Hornets were an Eastern Conference team that "lacked a center". Team.

You know, sending Divac to trade Kobe is just the first step in West's next game of chess.

How could West not know how powerful Divac is?

West is unwilling to give Divac to opponents in the West, whether it is emotional or threatening.

However, with the appearance of Su Feng in this life, West couldn't stop thinking about Mavericks.

To put it bluntly, the LOGO man wanted to jump out of the LOGO and beat Su Feng.

At the moment, the Mavericks are short of a center, and at the same time, the eighth pick they got seems to West to be the safest choice for Kobe's pick.

West believes the Mavericks will agree to the deal.

But in order to ensure that the deal can be completed, he is willing to add another second-round pick, and this is already the limit that West can bear.

no more...

That's not a transaction, that's really being blackmailed.

Well, despite a lot of talking, the PY deal between the Mavericks and the Lakers was finally reached.

According to the agreement, the Mavericks will be responsible for using their No. [-] pick in the first round of the draft to help West choose someone, and then the Lakers will complete the deal with them.

"Who do you want to choose?" the Mavericks uniform team asked curiously.

"You will know when the time comes." In order to ensure that there will be no further mischief, West is also tight-lipped about his trading partners who are about to PY.

Then, let's turn the camera back to the Mavericks' front war room.

"It's only 5 minutes away, the Lakers are not lying to us, are they?"

Feeling fooled by the Lakers, the Mavericks uniforms are dying after waiting for instructions from Los Angeles...

Because next, it's their turn to choose.

"Forget it, don't wait, if it doesn't work, then..."

And just when the Mavericks uniform team decided not to wait for the notice from Los Angeles, the Lakers called.

"Please help me choose Kobe Bryant." Jerry West said on the phone.

……

"With the first-round, eighth pick, the Dallas Mavericks chose—"

"From Lower Merion, Kobe Bryant!"

At the draft meeting, when Kobe heard his name, he let go of Su Feng's left hand...

However, while Kobe was busy getting excited, Su Feng was dumbfounded.

ha?

No. [-] rookie?

Dallas Mavericks?

"Isn't the Mavericks the ninth pick? Wait..."

Although he didn't want to understand why the Mavericks became the eighth pick for a while, Su Feng remembered that the Mavericks didn't really lack outside players at the moment.

Because they have Jim Jackson and Mashburn...

Huh?

Yes, the Mavericks don't lack outside lines at this time, but they lack inside lines!

And the Mavericks uniform team in this period is quite NC...

Because they didn't choose Dampier at the back, they ran to choose Samaki Walker instead. As a result, the future went around, and Dampier still went to the Mavericks after a few years.

After thinking about it seriously, Su Feng felt that he had already guessed the answer.

Sure enough, just after Kobe wore a Mavericks hat and showed off on stage...

Back at the meeting place, beside his family, besides hugging his parents, he whispered in Su Feng's ear, "Su, do you know that my manager told me not to rush to accept the interview."

Su Feng nodded, pretending that he didn't know anything, looked at Kobe curiously and asked, "And then?"

"He told me that the Lakers have proposed a deal, and I'm going to the Los Angeles Lakers!" Kobe was excited like a child at the moment.

"..."

LOGO man, he is LOGO man.

Even if Kobe goes to the eighth pick, he can be brought to Los Angeles.

Su Feng convinced...

However, the trajectory of history seems to be different from before.

Because Su Feng remembered that in Kobe's biography, Kobe knew that he was going to the Los Angeles Lakers, at least a few days later...

Well, although I don't know what went wrong, but seeing Kobe's change from the No. 13 rookie to the No. 8 rookie in this life, don't tell me, Su Feng doesn't think it's against the law...

"Su, I'm not going to interview for now, I want to see which pick you will be selected."

Excited, Kobe sat beside Su Feng. At this moment, he no longer felt nervous before.

"Don't be nervous!" Kobe said with a smile and patted Su Feng's shoulder.

Su Feng: "..."

After Kobe was selected with the eighth overall pick, the Nets with the ninth overall pick swapped the pick with the Mavericks, but they still chose Corey Kittles.

"Well... It seems that the reason why the Lakers chose Kobe with the eighth pick should be that they knew that if they didn't choose Kobe at the eighth pick, then the Nets would probably pick Kobe at this pick Kobe."

Su Feng knew that because of his appearance, the situation in this life was completely different from the previous life.

In the previous life, according to many media, Kittles was ahead of Kobe in this period.

But in this life, a few days before the draft, Su Feng discovered that many media believed that Kobe's potential was higher than that of Kittles.

"The LOGO man is so stable. In his previous life, he got the No.13 pick, and in this life, he got the No. [-] pick precisely..."

Su Feng felt that if he had the opportunity in the future, he must find a way to test the LOGO man.

Because this guy is too much like a time-traveling party.

Next, with the tenth pick, the Pacers chose Dampier, a man who claimed to be the No. [-] center in the Western Conference in the future, and was abused by Yao Ming and O'Neal successively.

But the complaints belong to the complaints. One thing to say, Dampier is indeed relatively good among the future meat shields.

In the No.11 pick in the first round, the Warriors who had previously looked down on Su Feng chose Todd Fowler.

Well, this choice is as bad as the Warriors uniform group during this period.

With the No.12 pick in the first round, the Cavaliers selected Peter Tappan, the Ukrainian meat wall.

Perhaps because he was still excited after being selected, Su Feng could clearly feel that Kobe couldn't wait to be interviewed.

"Why don't you... go to the interview first, I feel that it will take a long time on my side."

Su Feng estimated that he would have to be around the 20th place to be selected, so looking at the impatient Kobe, Su Feng laughed.

"No...I'll stay with you." Kobe said after struggling for a while.

Su Feng was overjoyed, it really was a friendship of iron and steel, it really deserved to be a plug-in for his long-term investment, it was reliable!

And while Su Feng was chatting with Kobe...

"Having the first round, the No. 13 pick, the Charlotte Hornets, they selected—"

"It's from Raul Merian, Su Feng—!"

Su Feng: "..."

When he heard Stern pronounce his name, Su Feng was taken aback for a moment, and then he was dumbfounded.

Especially after Kobe, who was more excited than him, shook him several times, Su Feng was stunned, dazed, and dizzy...

"Wei Guo, is our son chosen?" Wang Yuanyuan was surprised.

"It seems to be!" Su Weiguo echoed.

In 1996, the No.13 rookie in the first round...

Su Feng pointed to himself.

between......

When Su Feng came to the stage, he could no longer hear cheers or boos around him.

Looking at the amiable president on the stage, Su Feng always felt like he was dreaming.

"Congratulations, Su Feng." Stern patted Su Feng's shoulder, and Su Feng also put on...

Charlotte Hornets hat.

Su Feng, who was familiar with the Hornets' lineup during this period, knew very well that the Hornets did not lack outside lines at the moment.

And I didn't go to the Hornets to try out.

So after calming down, Su Feng's first reaction was:
