After communicating with Guo Xu, Wang Zhizhi immediately returned to China.

Guo Xu is already a recognized genius in the media. After a song became popular all over the world, many people said that his IQ is much higher than that of normal people, and he is not only good at playing basketball. Wang Zhizhi dared not believe what such people say.

Whether he wants to fulfill his obligations to win glory for the country, or wants to go back and use Yao Ming and Bater as free training, the ending is much better than his previous life.

On June 26, the 2002 NBA Draft was held in Madison Square Garden, New York, and Yao Ming became the top pick.

This is actually an unexpected lucky sign. The person who had the most hope to become the No. 1 pick was Jay Williams, Duke University double-seater, 188cm tall and weighed 90 kilograms. He is the undisputed best player in the United States, won the Naismith and Wooden Awards, and was selected by the Associated Press as the Best Player of College Basketball of the Year.

If other teams draw the No. 1 pick, there is a high chance of choosing Jay. However, the Rockets only have an 8.9% chance of winning the No. 1 pick. Yao Ming will be the No. 1 pick all of a sudden. Because the Rockets' current core is the backcourt double-gun composed of Steve Francis and Mobley, they will not be able to choose a double-energy guard.

Guo Xu watched the live broadcast of the talent show at home.

As expected, the Rockets selected Yao Ming with the No. 1 pick.

Because the Basketball Management Center has not issued a certificate of approval to Yao Ming's departure from the CBA League, Yao Ming could only see himself becoming the No. 1 pick on the TV of TNT TV station in Beijing, put on the rookie hat and accepted an interview.

Madison Square Garden booed when President David Stern announced the results.

Yao Ming is the first foreign top pick in NBA history. The reaction given by New York fans is enough to show how exclusionary they are. This even has a little racial discrimination, as if the Rockets are not choosing Americans is an unforgivable mistake.

In fact, the Rockets' choice is really smart. Even if Jay fulfills his talent and becomes an All-Star in the NBA in the future, his business value is not comparable to Yao Ming.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Yao Ming not only had the potential to become an NBA superstar, but also had the Chinese market behind him. He dominated the Forbes Chinese Celebrity List from 2005 to 12. Even in the entire sports world, Yao Ming often ranks at the forefront.

In terms of wealth and influence, Yao Ming may not be anything in the history of NBA, but his appearance directly opened up the entire Chinese market for NBA! Later, there were more NBA fans in China than the entire United States, and most of the credit was Yao Ming. At that time, he had already turned into Chairman Yao and was considering how to commercialize CBA.

The Bulls selected Jay Williams with the second pick, and all five positions have potential new players. Although the Bulls won a game last season, it cannot change the fact that they are bad teams, and they are in the top five draft every year.

This time, New York fans applauded, as if the Bulls had picked up a huge treasure and would definitely rise next season.

At this time, only Guo Xu knew that the Bulls chose a "double-unable guard" who likes to ride heavy motorcycles.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Jay played as a shooting guard when he was at Duke University. After coming to the Bulls, he seemed a little unacceptable to the local situation. His performance in his rookie season was not satisfactory, and the Bulls' record continued to be at the bottom, and there was no hope of recovery.

As soon as he signed a four-year rookie contract, Jay began to be proud. One night, he drove his heavy motorcycle at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour and directly hit the telephone pole on the side of the road. He was thrown out from a distance. The consequence was that his left knee ligament was broken, three nerves on his left leg were severely damaged, and he was facing lifelong amputation and even life-threatening danger.

Although he was rescued from his life, he was completely scrapped and said goodbye to NBA from then on.

Guo Xu's butterfly effect failed to allow Jay to join other teams. Whether he would have another car accident depends on his luck.

The signing of the Titanhua also changed. The Warriors did not choose small forward Mike Dunleavy, but chose inside player Drew Gooden. With Sean Bathir already in the team, there is no need for a high pick small forward.

The fifth place in the Nuggets chose Nick Roz Sgotishvili, an inside player who had no impression of Guo Xu at all. Stern did not read his full name. If the middle name was added, he would probably become the first generation of "Antetokounmpo".

The Grizzlies chose Mike Dunleavy as the sixth place, strengthening the team's weakest wing position. However, Dunleavy is a player with strong offense and weak defense, and I don't know what level he can play.

The Cavaliers chose Dajuan Wagner in the seventh place, which is basically a waste of draft picks. The Cavaliers managers include high-quality inside players such as Neil Hillio and Amare Stadamire. What is his vision?

Of course, if the Cavaliers didn't choose Wagner and Xiao Si, the butterfly effect would be too great.

With strong men like S, who are partnering with Ilgoskas, Ricky Davis, Boozer and others, the Cavaliers will never be able to have the bottom record. At that time, the team that has the most chance to choose LeBron James will become the Pistons. If James plays under Larry Brown and averages 5 minutes per game in a rookie season, the picture will be too beautiful.

There is probably an episode in the American drama "The Magical Detective" about President David Stern kills Larry Brown with a sharp weapon during the halftime break of the Star Weekend, and uses the rules of the stadium to clear the suspicion. The protagonists Casol and Beckett investigated a group of stars such as James, Iverson, Hughes, and Kukoc and Nike executives, and finally revealed the truth and arrested Stern and his assistant Adam Silva into prison. The world is quiet.

The Clippers used the eighth draft pick they traded before to select the powerful forward Chris Wilcox, who was a powerful player. This is Odom's replacement. The stingy boss obviously does not want to renew Odom's contract with a high salary, even if the team entered the playoffs last season.

The ninth place in the Suns selected the "little bully" Stardameier, who has the strongest physical fitness in this class.

The Heat selected forward Caron Butler in the tenth place.

The overall strength of the players in this draft is not strong, and many people behind Guo Xu didn't remember it, but the templates were scarier than the other. When "experts" predicted the player template, they were purely showing the lower limit, and there was almost no time to say it correctly.

The most valuable ones in the first round were forward Tyshoen Prince, who joined the Pistons at the 23rd. He relied on his excellent movement speed and long wingspan. He was a combat power as soon as he entered the league and was an excellent defensive player.

The Lakers chose the last place in the first round, Dandy Kao, who is 183cm tall and weighs 86 kilograms, a small point guard who is very fast. Fisher will be responsible for the substitute next season.

No one is optimistic about Dandy Cao's replacement for Guo Xu. His performance in college was average, and the gap between the two was huge, but the Lakers could only do this, and they had no salary space to introduce famous defenders in the free market.

The best player in the second round was Carlos Boozer, who was 206cm tall and weighed 120 kilograms, and a total of 34 were picked up by the Cavaliers.

His ranking is so low because he is older, poor defense, shorter, etc. Any low-court rookie who counterattacks is basically related to these factors.

In fact, Boozer is only 4 days older than Guo Xu. He is very strong at Duke University. His shooting percentage is 63.1% to set a school record. He participated in 101 games in three seasons, and averaged 14.9 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game.
