new lord of the rings

Chapter 159 Reinforcement!

The NBA draft has begun, and it is no different from the previous life. The Cleveland Cavaliers took the top spot and selected Andrew Wiggins, the Milwaukee Bucks selected Jabari Parker, and the Philadelphia 73 people selected Joel Embiid.

No. [-] pick Andrew Wiggins was interviewed.

"I am very happy to be selected by Cleveland. Being the No. [-] pick is just the beginning. It doesn't mean anything. I will definitely work hard to show my worth...Who do I want to be?...I am a Canadian. I was a fan of the Toronto Raptors when I was young. At that time, I admired Vince Carter, and then I also liked Allen Iverson. Among the active players, my favorite is Kevin Durant. His scoring is unstoppable. But the most I want to be is Zhang Xin, his experience is amazing, he can play so well in his rookie season! I regard him as my target!"

Jabari Parker was interviewed.

"It is my honor to be selected by Milwaukee. I am very excited. I am looking forward to the arrival of the new season. The current league is so exciting, there are many strong teams, and I can't wait to compete with those superstars.  … …Well, I want to be Zhang Xin, Zhang Xin is so fascinating to play, he plays with so much aura, his intelligence on the court is amazing, he is a great player, even though he is only a little older than me.”

Joel Embiid also mentioned Zhang Xin in the interview.

"It's a pity not to be selected as the No. 76 pick, but it's not the end of the world. Zhang Xin didn't enter the NBA through the draft last season, so it doesn't mean anything. I hope to recruit Zhang Xin on behalf of the team. The 76ers need Zhang Xin. Zhang Xin can help The [-]ers won the championship."

The No. [-] No. [-] pick mentioned Zhang Xin in interviews. Zhang Xin’s rookie season was too successful. Every rookie hopes to be like Zhang Xin. He will kill the Quartet as soon as he enters the NBA, help the team win the championship, and win the FMVP. It's like a dreamlike opening, the so-called opening is a kun.

Seeing the news, Zhang Xin smiled, how could it be that simple, he had achieved this achievement with the help of his rebirth and system, coupled with his historical level of physical talent, how can ordinary rookies not go through several years of polishing? It is possible to become a talent.

The Golden State Warriors have traded their draft picks over the past few years in order to get a team together, so they can only watch other people's drafts. This is what the Golden State Warriors often do, such as Quinn Cook, such as Jordan Bell, Draymond Green and others.

Bob Myers felt that Zhang Xin had a good vision, so he called to ask Zhang Xin. Zhang Xin thought for a while:
"There are two people you should pay attention to. One is Jonathan Simmons, a player from the Austin Spurs in the NBA Development League affiliated to the Spurs.

The other one is also undrafted, but this year, his name is Tyler Johnson. Signing him should be very simple. He can supplement our guard line. Although he may not have much playing time at that time, he still has great potential for training. "

Bob Myers quickly found the information, studied it carefully, and found that there is still potential, but there is a problem. Tyler Johnson is easy, but Jonathan Simmons is not easy to sign under Popovich.

Bob Myers asked someone to check the information of Jonathan Simmons, and the news was good. The contract between Jonathan Simmons and the Spurs is only one year, and this year's contract has not been signed yet, which can be cut off.

Zhang Xin heard the next day that Bob Myers had reached a verbal agreement with Jonathan Simmons and Taylor Johnson, and he could sign a contract as soon as the free market opened.

Zhang Xin was also very happy. When asked about Barbosa and Livingston, Bob Myers hesitated, saying that Barbosa and Livingston had some doubts about joining the championship team. Zhang Xin immediately asked Bob Miles gave him the mobile phone numbers of the two, and he wanted to recruit them himself.

He first called Sean Livingston.

"Hey, Mr. Livingston, hello, I am Zhang Xin from the Golden State Warriors."

"Hi, Zhang Xin." Livingston was a little surprised.

"Haha, Mr. Livingston, you should know why I'm here. I want to invite you to join the Warriors." Zhang Xin said with a smile.

"Zhang Xin, thank you very much for your invitation, but..."

"Mr. Livingston, do you know that I have been paying attention to you. You used to be a talented genius, but you have been wandering in the league after a serious injury. You need a big enough stage for people to see your talent again. , the Warriors need you!" Zhang Xin interrupted Livingston and invited Livingston very sincerely.

Livingston pondered for a moment.

"OK, Zhang Xin, you convinced me, I'll join!" Livingston laughed.

Zhang Xin also laughed: "Great! I'll tell Bob the good news. Sean, you can call me that. Stephen and the others will come to China together during this time. I want to invite you to come and play together."

"Of course you can call me that. When the time comes, you can call me. I can leave at any time." Now that you have decided to join, it is necessary to get to know each other first and establish a good relationship.

Zhang Xin then called Barbosa, who was in his hometown in Brazil.

"Hey, Mr. Barbosa, hello, I am Zhang Xin from the Warriors."

"Wow! Our FMVP, hello!" Barbosa seemed to know that Zhang Xin would call him.

"Haha, Mr. Barbosa, you should know why I'm here."

"Bob told me, but I didn't expect you to call me so soon. In fact, I still have some doubts. The Warriors are full of talents now. I'm afraid I won't have long time to play."

"Ha, Mr. Barbosa, you can rest assured that the Warriors are aiming to defend the title, so the playing time of the players will be distributed relatively evenly, and the players will not be allowed to play for too long, so the players in rotation will also have enough time. The team needs the veterans to maintain a good state." Zhang Xin dispelled Barbosa's worries.

"If this is the case, I am willing to join. After all, the general manager and leader of the team have called me to solicit. If I don't agree, I will be too arrogant, haha." Barbosa joked.

"Haha, that's great. Besides, Leandro, I want to invite you to play in China. Stephen and the others will come together."

"OK, call me anytime!" Barbosa readily agreed.

Zhang Xin quickly told Bob Myers the good news. Bob Myers was very happy. With the addition of these two people, the Warriors' lineup is complete. The next step is the signing of Thompson and Zhang Xin.

Bob Myers talked to Zhang Xin, and Zhang Xin said with a smile: "I will sign it when I return to the United States. The amount does not need to be too large, just leave room for the team."

Bob Myers was overjoyed and thanked him again and again.
