On June 26, 2003, at Madison Garden Square, New York, the president of the league, David Stern, walked onto the rostrum excitedly with boos.

The booing of New York fans tonight is still so loud, but why is David Stern so excited and excited?

Of course, the 2003 class he has been looking forward to, the diamond generation rookies are finally coming to the NBA!

The protagonist he values ​​most, LeBron James, who will finally make his debut with the choice man who will carry the hope of revitalizing the NBA in the next decade!

So, amid the booing, as soon as David Stern walked up to the rostrum, his eyes were already looking at the small round table in the green room.

James' suit tonight was milky white, and the white one was super white like snow. When everyone was wearing black and gray, James' white outfit was really conspicuous.

It's like the stars in the night sky.

"LeBron, you said, how could you be so eye-catching?"

Seeing David Stern on the stage, other rookies on the court and reporters constantly focusing on James, Chen Xiao asked in a low voice in James' ear.

Even if Chen Xiao’s appearance is amazing, Chen Xiao and James sit together, passers-by will definitely see James at first sight. This kid is so eye-catching!

“Born.”

"Isn't it really scheming to choose clothes for most of the day, and I came here deliberately to steal the spotlight?"

"No, born."

Humph, I'm born anyway.

James, who was sitting upright in front of the small round table, was sitting in a straight seat. Compared with Anthony, who was nervous in a silver-gray suit, who was licking his tongue, who was nervous.

If Anthony's appearance can crush James, then James' temperament can definitely crush Anthony at this time.

Anthony is really nervous tonight. The Raptors don’t want to go, and the Nuggets don’t want to go. Since I woke up this morning, I have been praying to God for my talent show prospects to keep falling.

In this draft, Chen Xiao, as an active NBA player, came to the scene as a group of relatives and friends of James.

At this table at James, there are James's mother, James's agent, Chen Xiao and James' high school friends.

Compared with Anthony, who was so nervous next to him, James is one of the youngest in this year's draft, but he looks the most calm.

This does not mean that James looks mature, so he looks calm, but mainly his temperament.

Compared with Chen Xiao and Anthony's casualness, James can always present his best side outside.

This is very awesome.

As the No. 7 pick and best rookie last year, the NBA first team player and the finals MVP this season, Chen Xiao's appearance at the draft was still very eye-catching.

At the age of 20, he has won two of the highest honors in the American basketball world, NCAA champion + MOP, NBA champion + FMVP. To be honest, Chen Xiao’s status in the American basketball world is really not a joke.

Even David Stern had to give him face on such occasions.

Before the draft began, David Stern specifically introduced Chen Xiao, thanking Chen Xiao, and at the same time, he also hoped that young players as outstanding as Chen Xiao could appear in this year's rookies.

I have to say that this NBA president is really wise and makes the rookies on the scene excited and scream one by one, and also makes many Chinese journalists on the scene and the Chinese audience watching the draft proudly.

Isn’t David Stern bragging Chen Xiao like this just bragging them?

I feel comfortable listening to it.

Speaking of which, the Cavaliers have three first-round picks in this draft, and CCTV has always reported that as the boss, Chen Xiao has the right to decide the draft in the Cavaliers, so many Chinese audiences are looking forward to what kind of helpers Chen Xiao can bring to him in this draft.

Chen Xiao didn't have much worry about leaving the Nets to be the boss of the Cavaliers, but Chinese fans were much more worried than Chen Xiao.

Since Chen Xiao took the Nets to beat the American experts and Nets general manager in the face with him, CCTV now particularly likes to report on reports that the United States is not good for Chen Xiao.

For example, with Chen Xiao's style of playing, he left Kidd and led the team alone, and he might not even be able to enter the playoffs in the Eastern Conference. For example, in order to get Chen Xiao, the Cavaliers sent away all three of the strongest players in the team.

Even with James's assistance next season, it will be difficult for the Cavaliers to develop combat effectiveness.

For example, Chen Xiao has no outstanding players such as Kidd, Richard Jefferson, Martin, Boozer, etc. Chen Xiao probably has no room for scoring, and the defensive pressure is probably too great. Chen Xiao's data may plummet by then.

Therefore, next season, Chen Xiao's record and data in the Cavaliers will both decline significantly.

In the end, Chen Xiao will become a team that everyone can stomp and so on.

To be honest, what these experts say is quite reasonable, and all kinds of analysis are very clear.

In the United States, most people do believe what these experts say.

But in China, I don’t believe that no one will play rational analysis with you except Chen Hei.

My Xiaobao is the number one player in the NBA. Even if the Cavaliers are good, what are the problems with bringing them into the playoffs?

It’s really hard to say that the number one player in the NBA does not have the ability to lead the team alone!

Didn’t my Xiaobaobao lead the Nets championship alone to win the championship?

Boss Ji: Meow Meow, I’m dead young, I’m really the second leader!

Chen Xiao led the team in the few games that Boss Ji rested last season, and this is indeed a fact.

But it cannot be blamed for Chinese fans for being so rebellious to American experts. This is all CCTV's "credit". Since Chen Xiao came to the Nets to slap in the face to win the championship last year, CCTV has tasted the sweetness. Any small news about Chen Xiao in the United States has been reported hard, and the whole world is the same as Chen Xiao in the United States.

If you think about it, you know that it is not. Chen Xiao is not Yao, NCAA champion + MOP and NBA champion + FMVP. Do you think it's a joke?

When this honor comes, Barkley and Pi Erye have to take a detour, no matter how bad they are, they have to take a detour.

If you are not optimistic about or black, that is a completely useless concept.

In fact, Chen Xiao doesn’t have many black fans in the United States, but there are many black fans in China, which is also a very interesting phenomenon.

Of course, there are not many black fans in the United States, but it may be because his fans are relatively few.

Most of China's NBA audiences are his fans, and this may be said to be less.

On the United States, to be honest, NBA audiences are his fans, not even half of Chengdu. No matter how good he performs in the United States, it is difficult to attract the love of local fans in Los Angeles and New York (except Chinese). Jordan was so strong back then, and he was still an American, and he never saw him conquering fans of Salt Lake City, Los Angeles and New York.

On the United States, he has now barely entered the discussion of superstars, and there are super giants ahead, but he can barely be considered the top ten stars in the United States.

The average superstar traffic is not as high as him.

However, even now, in the United States, he and super giants like Kidd, O'Neal, Kobe, Garnett, McGrady, Iverson and even Carter are completely incomparable in terms of traffic and discussion.

It is not the biggest focus. There are not so many fans, so of course there are fewer people who hate it. It is not like Jordan, Iverson and OK who made headlines every day. There are many fans and black fans.

Because of different perspectives, the world where Chen Xiao is seen by Chinese audiences is different from Chen Xiao’s real world, and it is very different.

In the eyes of Chinese audiences, Yao Ming is the second most popular player in the NBA. They read Yao Ming’s news and reports every day in China, and what Kobe, what O’Neal, and what McGrady is really hard to see several times a day.

In the United States, Yao Ming’s news is really something that I can’t see it a few times a week. When I’m not in the All-Star, I’m just a little fish…

Back to the topic, because of the different perspectives, the audience in front of the TV felt very happy when he heard David Stern yelling Chen Xiao.

"There are still good people in the United States!"

Many Chinese audiences were moved.

Well, CCTV, maybe you should reflect on it a little.

If you reflect on a ball and don’t create confrontation, can you reap attention and pride?

Back to the point, in the opening minutes before the draft, David Stern made Chen Xiao feel comfortable.

James next to him also looked envious.

After the opening session, the draft officially began, and David Stern opened the envelope of the No. 1 pick owner Cavaliers.

"In the 2003 NBA Draft, the Cleveland Cavaliers selected the first pick, the player from St. Vincent St. Mary High School, King James!"

Good guy, King James!

David Stern did not call James' last name this time, but directly called out the nickname plus surname when James introduced himself.

When David Stern shouted this name, there was a burst of exclamation at the scene.

"This is so good!"

"The last rookie who was so well-known was me last year!"

James felt quite happy when he got up and heard Chen Xiao praise the previous sentence, but after listening to a few sentences, he couldn't stand it anymore.

So boastful!

"King-James, congratulations, I hope I can crown you one day."

Chen Xiao stood up and put the Cavaliers Little Red Riding Hood on James' head.

"It's Little Red Riding Hood now, and it's the crown in the future."

"Thank you, God-Chan."

After a little stunned, James looked at Chen Xiao, and the two looked at each other and smiled. Then James walked towards the rostrum with confidence.

What James thought was that the future is mine!

What Chen Xiao was thinking was, Xiao Zhan, I will take you to win the championship.

Just as Chen Xiao was excitedly applauding his newly acquired younger brother James off the stage, when James walked onto the stage, James heard another sentence from David Stern: "The future is yours!"

David Stern's future is yours, and it is definitely from the heart.

After receiving the blessings of Chen Xiao and David Stern, looking at the eagerly anticipated American media in the audience, James, who became the top scorer on the stage and temporarily reached the first peak of his life, really at this moment, the whole world was saying to him. "The future is yours!"

“The future is mine!”
