Chapter 57: Draft


   Press conference after the game.
  Reporter: "Wang, how do you feel about winning the NCAA championship with a complete victory?".
  Wang Hao: "It's a pity that I have left a record that is difficult to break for my junior pupils in the future, sorry.".
  Reporter: "Will you participate in this year's draft?".
  Wang Hao: "Of course, the tyrant is about to conquer the NBA."
  Reporter: "Which team do you want to play?".
  Wang Hao: "Do I have a choice? It's not that I choose the team. It's the same to go there.".
  Reporter: "The outside world has always said that you are one of the top picks. Do you agree with this?".
Wang Hao: "Of course I don't agree." Looking at the reporters' unbelievable expressions one by one, Wang Hao continued: "I am the champion, why am I one of them? Isn't the other champion favorites beaten by me? ?".
   The reporters were helpless; "Can we have a good conversation this day, and we won't leave a way for others to live, you are so direct, we can't answer the conversation."
Wang Hao: "Okay, let me tell you directly, I will participate in this year's draft, and then I will submit my draft application. Also, I am Chinese, not Chinese American. Let's come here today. Let's take part in the draft. see.".
   The NCAA schedule ended in April, and the NBA playoffs have just begun. Unfortunately, the Lakers have entered the playoffs, and Wang Hao’s desire to travel out with Kobe tickets was lost. The worse news is that the Raptors won the No. 1 pick, and the Lakers are in talks with the Raptors. Fortunately, Aomei is off for summer vacation. Wang Hao is still not doing nothing.
   The Lakers, who originally thought they would be swept by the sun, fought with the sun for 7 games before they regretted losing. As a result, Wang Hao's travel was not mixed, but Huang Jinxiang, who had already signed a brokerage agreement with Wang Hao, brought Wang Hao's first endorsement. A Mercedes-Benz endorsement, 4 million US dollars in 2 years. Three vehicles are also provided as transportation.
   The high taxes in the United States made Wang Hao scared at the sight. Only half of the 2 million dollars in a year can be obtained. That's not good. The cheapness cannot be taken by the old United States.
   Smart Wang Hao and Huang Jinxiang jointly registered an economic company in China, and the contract with Mercedes-Benz was also completed by Mercedes-Benz China. This is a reasonable tax avoidance. More than half of the $2 million endorsement fee is left.
  As the draft draws near, the issue of the Lakers and Raptors trading the No. 1 pick has to be intensified.
Finally, the helpless Lakers took out Luke Walton, who averaged 10 points per game in the playoffs, Reaper Parker, Chris Mihm, and the second-in-chief Odom, who successfully traded for the No. 1 pick in the Raptors. Contract with a bunch of garbage. If Wang Hao couldn't play the Lakers, he would cry to death.
   It can be said that the Lakers' starting game was split in half. Alvin Williams, who averaged 1 point per game with an annual salary of 6.3 million, and Aaron Williams, who averaged 1.9 points per game, with an annual salary of 4.3 million, and Morris Peterson, who averaged 16.8 points per game, with an annual salary of 4.5 million. . Obviously, the contract for the goods has been opened this year. Plus two junk contracts, the No. 1 pick, and the second-round pick.
   Although the Lakers paid a great price, the Lakers thought it made a profit. As soon as the deal was concluded, a photo of Wang Hao wearing the Lakers No. 0 jersey was released in the most conspicuous position on the official website, with the text "Welcome the tyrant to the Lakers.".
   The news caused an uproar in the United States. But when the Lakers were aware of the bargaining chips, the wind fell to the Raptors and praised the savvy Raptors management.
   In addition to returning two draft picks for the Lakers, only one Maurice Peterson is worth seeing, but you know the contract year breaks out. (For details, please refer to Chandler A Sens)
   2006 Draft.
  Wang Hao, who was determined to be the champion, was invited into the small green house.
   Wang Hao met many acquaintances in the small green room. Wang Hao naturally had a friendly relationship with Roy, Aldridge and others.
   As for JJ Redick? Tyrus Thomas? "I'm sorry, people who are not worthy of being friends with a tyrant."
   The draft will begin soon. As usual, David Stern came to the stage and BB received boos from the audience. Finally, the long speech is over, and the draft meets the subject.
   "Next I announced that the Los Angeles Lakers, who had the first overall pick, chose Wang Hao, a Chinese small forward from the Bruins.". There is no routine stoppage for appetite. It seems that the Lakers' secrecy measures are really not very good.
   "Congratulations to your king." "Congratulations." Except for JJ Redick, everyone in the little green house, whether they knew it or not, sent blessings. It's just that one of the handsome white guys obviously blessed it not so natural. Wang Hao hugged Ao Mei, Kobe, and Yao Ming who came to watch and walked onto the stage.
   The staff was very witty and handed a microphone over.
"I am very happy to be selected for the Lakers. My home is in Los Angeles. It feels great to be able to play for my hometown. I also want to thank the NBA for providing us with a bigger stage and better showing our own. Opportunity, I will definitely... (some words are omitted here. "Thank you".
   Stern was exasperated when he heard what Wang Hao said. "It's a child who grows up under the red flag. The mental consciousness is high. You see, those brains are full of muscles. They only want to make money when they come on stage. It's really vulgar."
   "By the way, I think the Blazers management should thank me.". Wang Hao, who was about to step down, suddenly added.
  ? ? ? …"What do you mean? Now is the battle?". Stern is not calm anymore.
   "What does this Chinese kid mean?" The Blazers management and fans were even more calm. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
  Wang Hao, who was back off the court, specially explained the meaning of this sentence with Kobe.
  Hahahaha... Kobe off the court laughed unscrupulously.
   Even Yao Ming, who has high EQ, blushed.
   There is no suspense in the next draft. The Bulls selected Aldridge in second place and the Trail Blazers who selected Tyrus Thomas in fourth place to swap teams. Adam Morris was still selected by the Bobcats in third place, and Roy was also selected by the Timberwolves in sixth place. Gay was selected eighth by the Rockets. In the previous life, there was some tragedy in the champion Bargnani. The ninth place was selected by the Warriors, and Patrick O'Brien, who was originally selected by the Warriors, was squeezed out of nowhere. The Lakers used their first round to select Wang Hao's college teammate Jordan Farmar.
   In the second round, the Lakers selected PJ Tucker with the 35th overall pick from the Raptors trade.
   used his 51st overall pick and some cash to trade with the Timberwolves to the 36th pick and chose Paul Millsap.
   Of course, these two people were selected by Wang Hao through Kobe's mouth, and only two second rounds, Kobe didn't care very much, "My little brother wants to find two younger brothers."
   It's no surprise that in the new year, the Lakers' lineup will compete for posts except for Kobe and Wang Hao to be able to start. Even in addition to Kobe, the Lakers will start with four rookie contract players. But all this will not be known until the start of the season.
   "Boy, if you can't play, you don't need the Lakers to do it, I will shoot you myself.".
   "An la, an la. Waiting for the eldest brother to take you to the championship.".
   "Don't go in a hurry, let's find a place for a cup of tea." Yao Ming sent a message, "What is mysterious?".
