The Unexpected Second Place in the Talent Competition
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this year's talent show at the Harvey Center!”
" We've already seen this year's draft favorites, Duke University's three heroes, Zion Williams, Ru Barrett, and Camredish, appear in the little green room.”
“WOW! Of course, there was also the rising star of China, Chen Ran!”
At the side of the venue of the Harvey Center, the media reporters from all over the United States were excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Every year, the NBA draft after the end of the season would attract a lot of attention.
Chen Ran, who had received an invitation earlier, sat in the small green house and looked around at the rookies around him. Sian Williams, Jia Morant, Ru Barrett, and other popular rookies were among them.
On the other hand, Fat Tiger Zion revealed an expression that did not have high hopes for Chen Ran.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 2019 NBA draft!”The president of the NBA, Joke, stood on the podium and said a lot of opening remarks before getting to the point."I hereby announce that the 2019 NBA draft has officially begun!”
"The first pick in the first round, the New Orleans chose Zion Williams!”
Upon hearing his name, Zion Williams stood up, put on his rookie hat, and went up to the podium to shake hands with the joker.
"As expected, the Pelican team chose Duke University's Zion Williams, the all-rounder power forward who is known as the next LeBlanc James 'chosen one!”
"I believe that this chosen one will definitely create a glorious future for New Orlean!”
"The top scorer has settled down. Then, how will the next team choose?”
After all, this year was also a year of talent selection. There were many outstanding rookies emerging.
Zion Williams got off the stage and returned to his seat. When he passed by Chen Ran, he deliberately showed a smug smile.
It was as if he was mocking Chen Ran. So what if you beat me at the street court? Isn't the top scorer still mine?
"Next, the second pick in the first round is from the Griffin Grizzlies. They have chosen Chen Ran from China!”
As soon as Zion Williams sat down, he heard the first result announced by the joke. In shock, he sat on the ground with a face full of black question marks. The Grizzlies with the second pick actually chose Chen Ran?？？
The slap was so fast that Zion Williams didn't even have time to react.
Chen Ran was also very surprised by this result.
However, Chen Ran only had a calm expression on his face. He put on his rookie hat and went up to the podium to shake hands with the joke.
"My God! The Grizzlies had the number two pick in their hands, yet they chose an uncertain factor like Chen Ran. Was their management crazy?”
"Long before the draft, the Grizzlies showed a strong interest in Ru Barrett, but the latter publicly declared that he would only play for the Knicks. I guess the Grizzlies are taking a step back and want to gamble on Chen Ran, a Chinese player!”
"Congratulations to this rookie from China for achieving results second only to Big Yao in the draft. I hope he won't be a fake in the future!”
Regarding this unexpected result, various media commentators expressed their views.
Then it was the New York Knicks, who had the number three pick, who took down RV Barrett, who both sides had been longing for.
For the fourth pick, the Atlanta Hawks chose DeAndre Hunt, the center from the University of virginia.
Jia Morant, who was supposed to be the second-best pick, was only taken by the Knights after he was the fifth pick.
As for the ranking of the talent show, it was exactly the same as the world before Chen Ran transmigrated.
Among them was Yamamura, who was of Japanese descent. He was picked by the Washington Wizards as the seventh pick.
After the draft ended, Chen Ran, Zion Williams, Ru Barrett, and other rookies were immediately surrounded by various media outlets for interviews.
As a Chinese citizen, Chen Ran naturally gave his first interview right to Meina from the NBA.
"Congratulations, Chen Ran! She would become the second best this year! This was the highest honor a Chinese player had received in the NBA draft since Big Yao! Do you have anything to say about this?”
Meina held out the microphone to Chen Ran and asked in a barrage of questions.
"I still have the same old saying!" Chen Ran smiled confidently at the camera." Within two years, I will bring a championship trophy to the team that chose me!”
After the interview, Chen Ran returned to the Manhattan community in New York, ready to pack his luggage and report to the Grizzlies.
For Chen Ran, it didn't matter which team he played for. What was important was what he could bring to the team.
However, on the second day of the draft, the NBA's official website announced a deal that instantly made Chen Ran's impression of the Grizzlies fall to rock bottom!
Because the main character of this transaction was Chen Ran!
