Chapter 789 Charlotte Sword Immortal, set up! 【Subscription】
Madison Square Garden in New York, the 2004 NBA draft was held as scheduled.
Lin Long knew that because of his arrival, the strength of his butterfly flapping his wings was too great. Even if he had retired, the entire NBA had undergone tremendous changes.
For example, in the season just ended, the Detroit Pistons didn't even make it to the Eastern Conference finals because they didn't get Ben Wallace, and they fell down in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
This year, it was the Toronto Raptors led by Carter, Walker and Brooks who entered the finals on behalf of the Eastern Conference!
But although the Raptors enjoyed the taste of the finals fifteen years in advance, that's all.
They faced the three Musketeers composed of Kobe, O'Neal and Payton. The Lakers defeated the Spurs, the Timberwolves and the Mavericks in the West and successfully reached the finals.
After many years of teaming up for the championship, the Lakers finally fulfilled their dream this year. Phil Jackson, the 'Zen Master', with OK and Gary Payton, finally tasted the taste of the championship. !
The rest can only continue to wait for the next opportunity.
Even the championship has changed, so the number one pick has also been changed from the Magic to the Sword Immortal team, which is very reasonable, right? I don't need to express my embarrassment to the Magic at all.
They didn't know they had won the 2004 No. 1 pick in another world anyway!
Lin Long casually comforted himself by the way, while casually watching the player report in front of him in the office.
In fact, there is nothing to pick. They have the No. 1 pick this year and the No. 1 pick in the second round. For Lin Long, at least this No. 1 pick does not need to hesitate at all.
Dwight Howard!
Apart from him, there is no need to consider other options at all.
Lin Long also reported the final choice to David Stern.
The ghost knows why this little old man doesn't come out quickly.
Instead, he had to wait until the countdown was over before he walked onto the stage with a smile and said, "The first pick in the 2004 first round, Charlotte Swordsman's choice: Dwight Howard 々~!"
In the temporary draft office of the Sword Immortals, it can be regarded as a gathering of big names at this time. Owner Lin Long, general manager Bird, head coach Carlisle, head of scouting department Spoelstra, shooting coach Dale Curry , Stephen Curry, who wants to be drafted by Charlotte in 5 years, plus several staff members, in a small office
There were more than ten people gathered!
Not long after, Howard, who had finished the interview and hugged with Stern, grinned his big mouth and walked into the office with a cheerful air. When he entered the office, he was too tired. Joy jumped too high and slammed his head against the door frame.
Howard stood up without feeling the slightest embarrassment at all, and continued to smile: "Gentlemen! I am very happy to be selected by you and join Charlotte. I am extremely honored and proud! I hope to build a successful team with you. !35
"Come on, Dwight, don't lie to us with the manuscripts you've memorized." Lin Long shook his head and laughed. Howard didn't get stuck or hesitated in what he said, but he was emotionless and his tone was flat like a choir The nun was reading a poem, Lin Long waved his hand and said: "Here, there is no need for those fake things.
Hearing this, Howard's smile was still there, but the whole person was obviously relaxed, and he said: "It's great Lin! I'm your fan! I love you to death! I've been a fan since I was 8 years old. Look at you playing, and fighting! And bubbles! You are my idol, I want to play like you, and bubbles! God, your scandals are so enviable and yearning, they are all true What? Can I too?"
..."
Everyone at the scene felt that Howard was a little too happy. After he left, Bird couldn't help but said: "々. I still think that there is something wrong with this guy's brain. It seems that apart from muscles, there are only Mi Qingye and Mi Qingye. Smirk. Lim, why do you think he can be a superstar instead of being a dead body like the rest of the league?"
"I just believe it!" Lin Long was confident, but he didn't explain it to Bird, he continued: "But Rick, you still have to watch him, don't let him do too much, especially the illegitimate child. , I think if this guy is allowed to mess around, maybe the whole Charlotte will be his bastard!"
"Dad, what is doing? Can I do it too?" Little Curry, that is, Seth Curry suddenly raised his head and watched old Dale ask a soul question.
"You bastards! There are two children here! Pay attention to me when you talk!" Dale Curry resignedly looked at the group of greasy bastards and protested.
"It's okay, Dad, I understand! I'm not a child anymore, I can teach Seth what exactly is that." Little Curry Stephen suddenly patted his chest and assured that he would be able to make good his brother.
"If you dare to teach him those things, I'll break your leg!" Old Curry's desperate scolding caused the whole office to burst into laughter.
Lin Long shook his head and said, "Larry, sign Stephen to me and let him teach our players what to do. Hahahaha, Stephen, you must come to our team in the future!"
"Of course! I am willing to come, and I am also willing to teach everyone what to do!"
