"Aix, what do you think of this dress? Is it too plain?"
"How about this one No, no, will it be considered too open?"
"Will you be scolded for wearing high heels? I heard from my Chinese student friends that Chinese girls don't wear high heels when they are pregnant"
¡°What gift should I buy?¡±
"Aix"
"Aix"
"Hey" Zhang Hao felt pain in his head. He suppressed his complaints and said bravely: "We still have half a month to go back. You can choose slowly, don't be in a hurry."
It has been five days since the finals ended. The post-win celebrations and championship parade back in Los Angeles have ended long ago and it is already June 20th.
This season the Lakers have played 97 games, with 88 wins and 9 losses, and are unmatched in the limelight. But after a few days have passed, people's attention has been focused on the upcoming draft.
There are championships every year, and it will not affect the next season's championship competition just because of how great last season's championship was. On the contrary, it will affect the next season because last season was a failure.
The Lakers played the most glorious season in team history, but the post-game celebration was short. They returned to Los Angeles on the 15th, a fan appreciation event on the 16th, a championship parade on the 17th, and a holiday on the 18th.
??For the Lakers, the draft is nothing important, but there is another matter - labor negotiations.
The Lakers and Knicks are the two teams that are least willing to shut down. They would rather make concessions in income distribution than shut down. They are the two teams that make the most money in the league.
The bosses are not monolithic, but there are many bosses who are willing to fight to the death. The players are facing a situation where their income is going to be reduced, and many players were still receiving low salaries in recent years. support.
Jerry Buss and James Dolan are working hard on this matter. They want to promote labor negotiations so that even if the lockout does not affect the normal start of next season the goal is clear, but in implementation, it is almost impossible to complete. Task.
But you still have to strive for either a miracle or to accomplish the impossible.
"It's just that, 100 people who want to create a miracle, there is a high probability that 100 people will not be able to create it.
Zhang Hao has to stay in the United States. In a few days, after the draft, he will go to New York on behalf of the players union to participate in the last negotiation of the current labor agreement. The flight ticket is booked for July 1st.
He didn¡¯t have any expectations, he just had to participate and support the stars who were on the front line.
¡° Even before it was confirmed that he was going to return to China, Zhang Hao was already helping April Clark get a visa and would take April Clark back with him.
Counting the original memories of coming to this world and integrating them, from the age of 15 to now, it has been almost 6 years since I returned to China. Zhang Hao was a little excited.
However, his calm personality allows him to patiently do what needs to be done in such a mood.
April Clark feels that her clothes are not suitable for going to China, and Zhang Hao doesn¡¯t understand what China is like in her world view.
Because under the official guidance of the United States, the image of China portrayed by the media to the public is probably equivalent to the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons in Journey to the West, the Blood Mist in Naruto, and the Frieza Legion in Dragon Ball
This kind of guidance is very effective for the vast majority of Americans who have low IQs, poor discernment, and low academic qualifications, and such people are the majority in any country.
Under this kind of public opinion, just like in the WeChat group of a loving family, if you post an anti-chicken soup statement, you will be expelled from the family group. If someone says that China is good, tell some facts, such as a few sentences about the current situation of China's economy. As things get better and better, and the quality of the people improves they will be attacked in droves.
There are some people who do not doubt the public opinion guided by the U.S. official. However, these people firmly believed in this before. If they change their minds now, wouldn't they be admitting that they were a Sabi before? So simply make yourself more convinced of what you have always believed.
Of course, there will definitely be people who want to understand China more objectively, but in the United States, even if you feel that what the American media says is inaccurate, there is no way to truly understand it.
So, there are really only a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. Even Americans who have a good impression of China, if you ask 1,000 such people, there will be 1,000 different views of China in their world view.
Zhang Hao learned that China in the eyes of April Clark is a mysterious organization with ancient culture, dreamy stories, a long history, shrewd businessmen a mixed bag.
April Clark decided to go out and buy some formal clothes. Since she was not worried about her usual private clothes, she decided to wear, the trade resulted in the Kings' No. 7 overall pick this year and a protected first-round lottery pick in 2000. "
Finally, the first deal in the lottery area is here!
Wang Zhizhi just discussed with Zhang Hao which team would complete the transaction. Zhang Hao said that the Raptors might use Jamison for Carter, who was selected later. Unexpectedly, he was the one who was traded!
"The hat Wang Zhizhi was wearing was taken off, and the Magic's career as a player was over in 6 minutes
After receiving the draft rights from the Kings, the Magic selected Michael Doleak with the 7th overall pick.
Someone finally came to see Wang Zhizhi, but it was not the person from the Magic team who selected him, but the general manager of the Kings.
Wang Zhizhi failed to play under Nelson and went to play under Adelman Although it was a spare option, it was not bad. Zhang Hao was very satisfied with it.
??Continue to watch the draft, originally just to watch the fun, and then wait for when Pierce will be selected.
With the 8th pick, as Zhang Hao expected, the Warriors selected Vince Carter with the 8th pick, swapping with the Raptors.
Unlike the Kings, who also picked up a future lottery-protected first round, the Warriors and Raptors are purely one-for-one. The Raptors just want to save some money, and the salary of the 8th overall pick is higher than that of the 5th overall pick. Much lower.
With the 9th pick, the first non-Green Room member to enter the lottery appeared. The Bucks selected Dirk Nowitzki from the German Second Division with the 9th pick!
After the selection, the Bucks reached a deal with the Mavericks. The Bucks sent Nowitzki and this year's 19th overall pick from the Timberwolves to the Mavericks in exchange for their beloved University of Michigan genius Robert Te. Lehler.
Although there have been some changes in the draft with the addition of Wang Zhizhi, the overall draft changes are not very different. The wheel of history is turning, but the turning progress is not that fast. Damn it, it is still bad at present, and the 76ers are still standing. Woke up.
After Nowitzki put on his ball cap, the big screen showed Nowitzki's game highlights in the Bundesliga 2 and the draft template.
"Well¡¡"
Zhang Hao was speechless as he looked at the images on the big screen used to compare catch-and-turn jump shots.
People at the scene also looked at him. After the video and template video were played, the big screen also cut to the camera facing him.
"It doesn't matter if Duncan's template says it's me, Nowitzki is also me Are there even half a cent between these two people?"
Zhang Hao cursed, and the big screen cut the screen again, cutting to the sub-stage.
The deal is here!
Zhang Hao continued to watch and watch the excitement.
The host on the sub-stage said: "The Lakers, Celtics, and Kenny Anderson have reached an agreement. Kenny Anderson signed a five-year, 70 million sign-and-trade contract with the Lakers. The Lakers used Kenny -Anderson and the 29th overall pick in the first round were traded to the Celtics for the 10th overall pick in the first round.¡±
"Damn! My house is on fire just to watch the excitement!"
Just as Zhang Hao was about to curse, Kupchak quickly ran to his side and took him to the draft office.
Kenny Anderson and Celtics executive vice president Dan Foster were also there.
Before Zhang Hao could get angry, the man with the logo took the lead and said: "We have submitted our draft list and selected Paul Pierce from the University of Kansas."
I like to play basketball too much. What should I do if I am too powerful? What should I do to update the fastest. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
