"Return to the playoffs next season?"
Richard Divos was a little surprised to see Chu Feng sign the contract.
As the owner of the team, he knew best what the Magic's lineup was like.
Although he was very confident in Chu Feng, he had no confidence in the Magic's lineup.
"Trust me."
"The team can already start selling tickets for the playoffs.”
"It's good to have confidence. The summer league is in a month, and I hope you can show what I want to see.”
After signing the contract, Magic's general manager Luo Bu said,""There's still the preseason. Everyone can't wait to see your level.”
"I won't be playing in the summer league or preseason.”
Chu Feng shrugged.”
After saying that, Chu Feng exchanged a few pleasantries with Luo Bu and Divos before taking the lead to leave the Amway Stadium.
"Boss, can Chu really not participate in the summer league and preseason?”
Watching Chu Feng leave, Luo Bu frowned."Is he confident, or is he worried about giving himself away?”
After all, the summer league and preseason had always been a stage for many rookies to show off their abilities.
If Xia Lian and the preseason didn't play well, it was basically a declaration that the rookie was dead.
Now, Chu Feng had directly refused to participate in these two test waters. This inevitably made Luo Bu somewhat worried.
"I'm more willing to believe that it was a sign of his confidence.”
" Also, if he can really lead the team back to the playoffs in the new season, we need to do something with next season's draft picks.”
Everyone in the outside world believed that the Magic had chosen Chu Feng and that they would continue to press forward in the new season.
Therefore, the Magic's first round of signings next season were worth thousands of dollars!
It was even possible that he would be in the top three or even the top scorer!
Many American media outlets even said that among all the teams in the NBA, the most valuable draft pick was undoubtedly the Magic's first round pick next season!
However, although the value of the deal was high, the American media still unanimously believed that the Magic would value this draw more than their lives.
However, less than two days after the draft ended, the NBA announced a trade on their official website.
The Nottingham Timberwolves used their 14-year first round signing, plus some cash, to reach a deal with the Orlando Magic in exchange for the Magic's 14-year first round signing!
"The higher-ups of the Orlando Magic have completely lost their minds!”
"The Magic used the first pick to get a lottery draw. I find it hard to believe that this is true!”
"Did the senior executives of the Forest Wolves drug the senior executives of Magic? The Forest Wolves were not losing out on this deal!”
"The Magic is finished. After picking the top scorer of the Chinese Dynasty, they even started to mess with the trading!”
The news of the deal had just been reported, and the entire American basketball world was in an uproar.
The draft pick that everyone viewed as Kui Bao in the eyes of the Magic was actually traded away just like that!
"Could it be that the brains of the Magic Association's higher-ups had been destroyed from the moment they chose Chu Feng?”
"I'm starting to look forward to Chu Feng's performance. Will our top scorer give the Magic's higher-ups a head-on blow in the summer league?”
"I think it's very possible that Chu will replace Kuame Brown and become the most draft pick in NBA history!”
The Magic's suffocating operation made the fans look forward to the upcoming Orlando Summer League and Chu Feng's performance in the Summer United League.
Once Chu Feng's performance was subpar, then the Magic executives would definitely become the target of bombardment and ridicule from all the American fans!
However, what surprised the fans was that the top scorer they were waiting to mock was not on the Orlando Magic's Xia Lian list!
Helpless, the fans could only suppress their restless hearts until the preseason.
In the preseason, all the big shots in the NBA would warm up and go on stage. Chu Feng was facing an NBA-level opponent, so the probability of him performing poorly was even lower!
It was even more effective when taunted!
However, to the fans 'surprise, Chu Feng didn't even play in eight preseason games!
"Everyone thinks that our top scorer is avoiding the battle!”
October 29th, 2013, the first day of the opening match of the 13-14 NBA season!
The United States, Arizona, the Banker's Life Arena.
The commentator from ESPM was introducing the upcoming game on the sidelines."Chu Feng, the top scorer of China, has been absent from the summer league and preseason. It's a bit surprising!”
"That's right. Especially during the summer league, the number one pick, Victor Oladipo, who fell to the seventh pick, had an eye-catching performance. After he helped the Sacramento Kings win the Las Vegas Summer League championship, the discussions about Chu Feng became even more intense!”
"Unfortunately, today is the first match of our top scorer's career. He will be playing against the powerful Indianos Pacers in an away game!”
"Will he continue to avoid the battle?"
"Or do you choose to come up and die?"
