Chapter 212 Championship Celebration and Draft Day

At the championship celebration, Xuewei unexpectedly met Xie Hou's family.

Xie Hou had many girlfriends before, and he had good friends, but he had not developed to the point of meeting his parents. He did not expect that such a precious "first time" would happen to Xuewei.

When Xuewei saw Xie Hou's parents for the first time, Xuewei was so nervous that her stuttering look made Chen Mimi laugh.

Xie Hou's sister Xie Nini said: "Sister, mom doesn't eat people." This relieved Xuewei's embarrassment.

The Pacers walked to the front stage from management to coaching staff one after another.

The boss thanked the team for the risks, and Claire everyone praised it.

Bird still maintains a high-quality tone: "We have a longer-term goal."

When Miller came on stage, the crowds of people shouted "Another year". Miller enjoyed the moment he was favored by tens of thousands of people, and he quietly waited for his time to speak.

"Many people say I'm old, I want to say, I'm not old, at least not as old as they imagined." Miller's words caused countless echoes, "not only is I not old, but I can also be the person with the most points in the finals. Even a young man as outstanding as Arthur must pass the ball to me honestly."

When the camera was given to Xie Hou, he had to smile because no one could stop the boss when he was about to pretend.

"So why should I leave?"

Then Miller took off his T-shirt, and there was a pure white T-shirt inside, which clearly stated: Another year!

The atmosphere of the championship celebration rose to its peak.

Xie Hou stepped forward with the warmth left by Miller. When he found that the audience stopped cheering, he joked: "When I finish speaking, I will be very unhappy if the cheers I get lower than Reggie."

He calmed down the atmosphere.

"NBA championship sounds very cool. In the past five years, people have always told me that no matter how much I have won in Europe, I can't compare to an O'Brien Cup. Now I think he may be right, but I still won this thing, so, whether in Europe or the United States, I am still me, a great player, do great things, please cheer."

Xie Hou's speech aroused the biggest shouts in the audience.

Miller then said, "Why don't we ever let him mobilize before the game?"

Xie Hou continued: "When you have a job like me, you have the chance to win the NBA championship, every morning after you wake up, you think about how to be better. Looking back on this long season, we are eager to start our best performance from November last year, and it lasts until May and June, throughout the playoffs, and that's what we are aiming for."

Cheers were scattered, Xie Hou's speech was very formulaic, and he did not make excessive promises, but just said what he was thinking.

"Our lineup is very balanced. We have a few outstanding veterans. They have experienced many storms, such as Reggie, Austin, and Jeff. They are the wealth of the team. We have some passionate players, Ron Artest (the sound of the sound), Andre Kirilenko, they are all tough characters, they are fearless, they are always on the battlefield, and they will work hard when they step on the field. Jermaine O'Neal, he is my brother and friend, I am really, very happy for him. He performed very well in the playoffs. I mean, his performance is phenomenal, his performance in the previous playoffs has always been criticized, and this year his performance in the Finals is really critical, he is amazing."

Xie Hou did not have a speech and said whatever he thought of.

"Look, I praised them all as a flower, but I am the key person to win this championship. I don't like to brag... I mean, please use the biggest cheers today to let the people behind me know how critical I am speaking."

Then the biggest call from the championship celebration sounded.

"He really won't miss any chance to show off." Bird muttered.

The championship celebration ended, and the 2004 draft was followed.

In this draft, the Bulls, Magic, Knicks, Bobcats and Raptors won the top five picks respectively.

As the only draft year before 2002 to allow high school students to run for 20 years, the Bulls who hold the first pick will make a choice among high school geniuses Dwight Howard and Emecca Okafor.

It doesn't seem easy, but it's actually very easy.

Since Jordan retired in 1998, the Bulls have been looking for a suitable Lord of Wind City. It is difficult for Bulls fans who have seen the peak Jordan to be satisfied. They are a bit similar to New Yorkers. Because they have witnessed the entire career of the best player in history, it is difficult for them to accept an ordinary All-Star to lead the team.

Therefore, Okafor, who has strong combat power but limited upper limit, was easily abandoned by the Bulls.

The Bulls decided to use the hard-earned first pick to choose high school genius Dwight Howard.

There was no good choice for magic, so they had to take the second pick and had to take Okafor.

Next is the heavyweight option.

The Knicks' third pick.

The Knicks' helmsman Isaiah Thomas claims to inject the Knicks into the championship gene. They now have Magicians. As the Magician's old opponent, he knows how the show                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     

show      The backbone of the Lakers include, not limited to: Jabbar, Wilkes, Michael Cooer, James Worthy, Byron Scott.

Howard, the most hopeful monster to become Jabbar, has been recruited by the Bulls. The Smiling Assassin wanted to get the first pick through the trade. He proposed to get the Bulls' No. 1 pick with the third pick Tim and Cott Thomas.

The Bulls and the Knicks have been enemies for generations, and the Knicks came to him by themselves, and the Bulls' attitude is open-minded.

In a word, as long as we are willing to hand over Lei Balong, we can get the deal.

The Knicks's manager's office took the lead in hanging up the phone and searching for contemporary Jabbar for Lei Balong's plan to temporarily go bankrupt.

Jabbar's reinforcement plan failed, and the Smiling Assassin turned his attention to other fresh players of this class.

The short double-energy guard Ben Gordon, who will average 20 points per game in the future? The weakened version of Dwyne Wade? What is the use of me, Lei Balong?

The smiling assassin glanced over Livingston, Devin Harris and others. Among these players, there were guys who were lit up in front of him, but he still locked in Josh Childries from Stanford University.

This person is smart, strong, tall, very good at cutting and defense, and is a very rare classical wing.

Is the legendary James Worthy about to come out? The Smiling Assassin did not hesitate much.

However, it was a little extravagant to choose Childries with the third pick, but wasn’t it a luxury to choose Dominic Walsey with the No. 1 pick and abandon Dominic Wilkins, who was the same class, not to choose? For a team that is determined to win the championship, it is always the most suitable one, not the best one, which is the practice of the weak team, the bottom fish, and the garbage tanks.

A strong team must have backbone - let us ignore the Knicks ranked fourth from the bottom in the league this season.

The Knicks' choice was settled, and the smiling assassin happily took away Stanford's cerebellar axe Childries.

"I promise everyone that Josh will become James Worthy next to LBJ, and I love him so much!"

The smiling assassin showed off his operations so much that he was in chaos later.

The top three hot Ben Gordon fell to fourth place, and the Charlotte Bobcats happily took him home.

Another magician, Livingston, sat dullly, and it was okay, the Torontos decided to save him from the fire and water.

The Raptors took Livingston away, and no one knew whether his miserable and inspiring classic fate would reappear in another time and space.

Later, the Wizards took Lor Deng; the Suns chose Iguodala; the Smiling Assassin disrupted the arrangement of the draft alone, and Josh Smith, who was originally in the middle and late stages of the first round, was happily picked up by the Clevelanders.

It is worth noting that the Bulls who won Howard's first pick and also won Kevin Martin, who was regarded as a spare tire by the Pacers at the end of the first round.

Fortunately, the chaos ahead caused the draft strategy of all teams to be impacted, and the Pacers chose Shasha Vujasic without paying any price.

No one expected that the smiling assassin in power was so reckless, his choice, his determination to completely ignore other people's opinions, disrupted the entire draft and pushed the fate of many teams in different directions.

The Pacers were at the back and were basically not hit. They chose what they wanted and then quietly watched other teams trade with each other.

As soon as the draft ended, Xie Hou spent a few days to continue training.

In addition to training, he returned to China to report on the national team.

The whole family was particularly concerned about what he had reported to the national team.

Since Chen Mimi and Xie Pingsheng were both athletes, their offspring will definitely be a good seedling for professional athletes.

When they went to Moscow due to work reasons, they were worried that they would affect their children's growth.

Now Xie Hou not only made his mark, but also received the call from the national team. For them, this is simply the perfect time for their lives.

Before Xie Hou left, Chen Mimi told him to go to the national team to behave properly and not to do anything outside, and put the overall situation first.

Xie Hou thought at the time that if he put the overall situation first, he should go to the national team to report as soon as the season ends.

My mother and dad obviously underestimated the importance the national team attached to him.
