NBA: I Really Have No Talent

Chapter 566: The 1999 draft, wait for an attitude!

Wang Xin definitely won’t know about the situation of the national team, and won’t pay too much attention to it for the time being.

After all, Dayao and Da, the two most talented players in the national team, are still too young and in a rising stage, and their strength has not yet reached the level that he can take seriously.

With the current domestic basketball environment and some secret support from him, it is enough for the two to pass the developmental period and grow up.

So there is no need to care too much about them at the moment!

Moreover, the Olympic Games will not start until after the NBA game is over next year. It is still a little too early for Wang Pan to start preparations now.

At least he has to wait until the end of next season to think about the Olympics. What he has to do is to become stronger again and ensure that he is not troubled by injuries.

Thinking of next season’s situation, Wang Xin couldn’t help but think of Jeff Hornacek’s figure, and thought in her heart:

“Old Huo is likely to retire next season, the team lacks an experienced sixth man, the strength will definitely decline, and the fighting spirit of Lao Ma and Lao Si will inevitably decrease again. The game is not good.”

Emotionally speaking, he is actually more inclined to stay with the Jazz, but if the attitude given by the team is too general, he will definitely not treat himself badly.

It’s not a question of money or not, it’s a question of face and status!

Shaking her head slightly, she didn’t think much about these aspects. Wang Xin concentrated on exploring the domestic scenery with Selena and Xiao Wang Yan. In the late 1990s, the domestic infrastructure was not as perfect as later generations, and the natural scenery But it is extraordinarily beautiful, natural and fresh and refined, making people feel more comfortable.

During this process, she saw the difficulties in various aspects of the country, especially the problem of children going to school in remote areas. Selena, who is already a mother, was very touched, and Wang Xin was no exception. A bold idea came to her mind. birth.

Of course, the actual operation is not so simple, which involves many procedural problems.

However, given Wang Pan’s current influence in China, the problem should not be big. After contacting the domestic team and speaking out his ideas, he just needs to wait for the results.

While Wang Pan was enjoying life in China and doing some charitable work within his power, the 1999 NBA draft had quietly opened.

Compared with the 1998-class, the quality of the 99-class rookies and the number of outstanding rookies are undoubtedly much improved.

There are also many more targets for other teams to choose.

In the end, Elton Brand was selected by the Bulls and became the No. 1 overall pick, the Grizzlies selected Steve Francis, and the Hornets selected Baron Davis. That is, a new (ajde) star with good combat power and outstanding potential.

The Los Angeles Clippers, holding the No. 4 pick, chose Lamar Odom, a young all-around fighter.

After that, Wallis Zebiak, Richard Hamilton, Andre Miller, Sean Marion, Ron Artest and other NBA stars who are familiar to later generations have been selected. is quite outstanding.

On the Jazz side, holding the late first-round picks, they selected Andrei Kirilenko from Maoziguo with the 24th pick in the first round, and also selected the same international with the 28th pick in the first round. Player’s Manu Ginobili.

Among them, Wang Pan’s opinion played a crucial role.

In the period of Karl Malone, John Stockton and Jeff Hornacek, the three veterans in the team are either lacking in fighting spirit, or their strength is declining, or they are about to retire, the Jazz added timely supplements. new force.

The current team brings together Ben Wallace, Pejastojakovic, Rashad Lewis, Stephen Jackson, Katino Mobley, Kirilenko, Ginobili, etc. With the help of later All-Stars and top superstars like Wang Pan as the tactical core, the future is absolutely unstoppable.

Of course, the growth of new people requires time and the experience of competition.

And after changing the situation, whether it can grow up like the previous life, I can’t make a judgment at present.

There are still a few months before the start of the new season. Wang Jing is still waiting for an answer. If the Jazz are sincere enough, he doesn’t mind continuing to be creative in this team. If they are satisfied with the current results, He will not be too stupid and loyal, with his combat power and influence, no matter which team he goes to, he can become the core.

In this kind of thinking, more than half a month has passed again, and the arrival of a cross-ocean phone call has broken Wang Xin’s warm travel state…
