You are the Pearl, Mo Mengchen

Chapter 446: Angry but polite smile

Rashad Lewis is sitting in a small green house, where rookies with prospects for lotto are invited to enter.

In order to sit here and enter the world's highest level basketball league ahead of time, he refused the invitation of admission from two universities. Those seemingly generous full scholarships did not meet his needs.

Because not long ago, Kevin Garnett, who was also a high school student from the draft, signed a six-year high-value contract of 1.2 billion US dollars.

What is this concept?

The purchase of the Kings, the Maruff Brothers, was only $200 million. Garnett was only 22 years old. His success has stimulated to a certain extent those who have been scouted for a better future, but they need to prove it in the college league. You can adapt to the high school students who are fighting against the adult level.

This includes the two high school students Rashad Lewis and Al Harrington.

However, Lewis also knows that at the time, high school students did not mean that Garnett was a supernova. They may also be like a previous high school student, comet-like annihilation on the nba field with amazing strength.

A high-school student has an unfinished product that needs to be cultivated for a long time. The media's cautious view of this fresh wave is that so far (98 years), there have been few successful cases of high school players in the league. Is Lewis ready to fight against Grant Hill, "Penny" Hardaway, and Shaq O'Neill? The outside world always asks like this.

The high school students’ unfinished product label is not without reason. As the pioneers, they are closer to the real high school students than the later-like accelerated monster like James.

Lewis is an obvious example. When he announced his participation in the 1998 NBA Draft, his profile clearly stated: 6-foot-10, center.

Coupled with his delicate skills to shoot good shots, it is difficult for the Draft to remove him from the lottery.

But as the season came to an end, the rookies became more transparent, and even if Lewis's agent kept his mysterious propaganda strategy, he still leaked.

At first, when someone found him standing with some true 6-foot-10 center, he was obviously shorter than half of his head, and more and more photos were taken like a mirror. His height was determined to be hydrated.

So he can only change the propaganda gimmick to a 6-foot-8 forward who can shoot good shots, just like a young dark-skinned Byrd.

A 6-foot-10 center who can shoot good shots is definitely more attractive than a 6-foot-8 player who can shoot good shots, but Lewis is not worried. The media's predictions for him are still in the lottery area. Past experience also shows that talented high school students Although it is not the most dazzling star in the draft, it can always be selected high. In 1995, Garnett, the pioneer of the wave of modern high school students, ranked fifth; in 1996, Kobe Bryant, first overall; in 1997, McGrady, eighth overall; so it is predicted that he will enter the lottery. This is a normal thing-not to mention that 98 is still considered a draft year.

Lewis also has one of the most important sources of confidence. As a local high school student in Houston, Lewis is very popular before the election. The Rockets, who are entering the new and old alternates, hold three first-round draft picks. One spent on local potential rookies.

All in all, sitting in a small green house, the only thing Lewis deserves to worry about seems to be the only thing left: whether to stay in Houston or go far away?

He didn't worry about himself at all. At this time, seven people had been chosen before him, and he arrived immediately.

The Rockets hold the eighth overall pick.

He is waiting.

The scene's lens was also aimed at Lewis. He is a Houston native. His previous training for the Rockets was also heated up. As if he was the real son of the City, he should not miss this one with three first round rockets. Genius from a local high school student.

As a result, the eighth young man who opened his hands to nba from the mouth of Stern was Paul Pierce of the University of Kansas.

Before Stern spoke, Lewis had sorted out his clothes and stood ready to stand up to accept the congratulations. As a result, it was not him who was called.

Interestingly, Pierce, who was selected in the eighth overall pick, was equally displeased because he always felt that he would be selected in the top three.

He came to Stern with a face of "I'm not happy", shaking hands in greeting.

"This young man looks lost."

"Yes, he seems to have been betrayed, as if this ending shouldn't be the case."

"However, he doesn't have to be discouraged. Houston still holds the first round of 14th and 18th. As long as he is in this position, they will not miss this highly anticipated local star."

Damn it, I don’t want to go to Houston!

Feeling betrayed, Lewis became angry. He began to hate the Rockets and hoped other teams would **** him before Stern reached the 14th pick.

In his opinion, he will never fall outside the 14th pick.

No matter how ruthless the Rockets are, they should always be selected after the 14th pick?

In Detroit, thousands of miles away, Mo Mengchen walked into the kitchen after Stern finished his eighth pick. He knew that the good show was about to begin, and Lewis would experience a nightmarish day.

"Have you got him?"

Ephraim asked.

She had no idea about rookies, and did not know how the rookies would help the Pistons, just asked casually.

Mo Mengchen smiled: "It's still early."

"That" Ephraim asked knowingly, "How about breakfast?"

See the tears on Henry's face? Just like that

Mo Mengchen said hypocritically: "This is the best breakfast I have ever had."

"You will be proud of you." Ephraim could tell that Mo Mengchen was coaxing her, but the woman had the superpower to listen to all the slaps and horses as if it were sincere.

Then, Bunch Wells, Robert Trelle and others were successively removed.

When the Bucks chose to leave Treyler, Mo Mengchen also looked forward to swapping with the King. Unfortunately, this did not happen. Trelle was originally the Bucks' draft goal, and the King was also optimistic about Nowitzki.

At this point, Mo Mengchen accepted the fact that the king built a super battleship.

In a few years, their drafts and trades over the past few years will be touted as textbook-like reconstruction operations.

Boldly choose talented high school students to put it down, and then take out the team's All-Stars for the draft picks, and make a lot of lottery picks, and all selected the future star.

Lewis waited for him to be selected before the 14th pick, and he would never wait for that moment.

Slowly, still came to the 14th pick, unconsciously, only him in the small green house.

He fell out of the lottery area, he is definitely the most embarrassing little green house lord in ten years.

Now, he just wants the Rockets to pick him with the 14th pick in the first round. He no longer thinks about boring things, he just wants to leave this position as soon as possible.

Every second here is suffering.

Not to mention that the Rockets didn't have a cold for Lewis before, and even if Mo Mengchen didn't do anything about it, they would not win Lewis.

After Lewis missed the Pistons' training, Mo Mengchen used the power of the media to turn Lewis black into charcoal.

From professional qualities to potential to high school students’ series of instability, all of which are magnified, plus Lewis has always maintained a mystery, never conducted confrontational training, but also made those teams who were coveted by his heart. Deterred, he no longer had the first round of the market, but he didn't know.

Stern walked to the stage again.

"1998 NBA Draft,"

Lewis reorganized his clothes again. Even if this is not the best ending, he will face the world with the sunniest side. Sooner or later, he will prove that not many people can stand in front of him in this dog day's draft.

"The Houston Rockets chose Michael Dickson with the 14th pick in the first round, from the University of Arizona!"

Lewis seemed to be struck by lightning, sitting motionless.

He couldn't believe the Rockets dropped him again.

This means that he will continue to sit in this embarrassing green house, perhaps for a long time, and see many people who are not as good as his draft prospects, and he was taken into the arms of nba earlier than him.

Pride, self-esteem, and gradually shattered, he looked down.

For the pick, he no longer needs, just thinking: any team will do, quickly take me away from here!

Lewis looked at each rookie one after another on stage and shook hands with the president, but he was sitting alone in the small green house.

Then came the Rockets' third first-round pick.

Lewis raised his head with a glimmer of hope.

result.

The Rockets used their last pick to choose Ricky Davis.

Seeing this scene, Mo Meng nodded silently.

Yes, everything is in the plan.

From No. 1 to No. 28, Lewis has been sitting in the green house.

Then, Stern walked to the stage again, preparing to read the name of the last first-round show.

The Pistons, the team holding this pick.

They were the regular season champions of last season ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ have the right to pick at the end of the first round, their choice is quite concerned by the outside world, because in the past few years, their operation in the draft conference can hit an a-level score.

"The Detroit Pistons chose Rashad Lewis in the first round with the 29th pick!

"From Arif Elsk High School!"

After not falling into the second round, Lewis stood up with regret, but he could finally leave this **** house.

He began to regret his decision, he should go to college, if he can go to college, he can show nba that he has the talent to play adult games.

Now, he can only accept this fact.

Put on the hat marked with the Pistons team logo, walk to the stage and shake hands with the president.

He smiled-after such a bad draft, he even wanted his mother to keep smiling! Remember the site's website, www. biquxu. Com, easy to read next time, or enter "" on Baidu to enter this site
