019 God Stick
From being impatient at the beginning to being overjoyed later, Lao Qiao finally felt relieved.
Kupchak: "I think NBA scouts are so rich in money, and talents like Wang Dazhi have been ignored!
This is simply intolerable!”
Although Kupchak said this, Old Joe sneered at him.
Lao Qiao thought to himself, I have put Wang Dazhi under your noses, but who has lowered his head and taken a good look?
Just like Jeremy Lin, his strength has always been there, but who cared at first?
Joe Bryant: "Gold always shines, I believe Wang Dazhi is gold!
Do you think Wang Dazhi is worth the No. 24 pick in the first round?"
Joe Bryant didn't bother beating around the bush anymore, he stopped pretending and showed off his cards!
Kupchak: "My old friend, I am not the only one who can decide this matter. I want to hand this videotape to Mr. Jerry's office.
But please believe me, we will definitely discuss this matter very, very, very seriously!
Promise me, Old Joe, you won’t show this tape to the second team again!”
Kupchak's attitude was already very clear, and Lao Qiao suppressed the joy in his heart and said a few words to him before leaving.
Wang Dazhi only learned about Lao Qiao's trip to Los Angeles later. Wang Dazhi had nothing to repay except gratitude.
Wang Dazhi thought to himself, it was just like this when boss Yao was in charge of Amway Poland Tieqi!
Lao Qiao's behavior is no different from that of an agent, but if he wants to join this alliance, Lao Qiao still knows that professional matters are best left to professionals.
Under the arrangement of Lao Qiao, Wang Dazhi signed a contract with Kobe Bryant's agent.
The enthusiasm for Jordan to win another championship has not dissipated, and the draft is coming.
Lao Qiao and his wife customized the same suits for Kobe and Wang Dazhi.
At this moment, Wang Dazhi should have invited his parents to the United States to witness it together. However, just over a month later, the Chinese Men's Basketball Team is about to compete with the Los Angeles Lakers in the summer league. If Wang Dazhi's parents were to attend at this time, it would probably attract a lot of attention.
Troubles.
Wang Dazhi did not ask his parents to come over. In 1996, the NBA Draft was unprecedentedly popular.
After all, it is not common for talents to appear in spurts. All major media are predicting the draft picks every day, but no matter what media, they only have no objection to the prediction of the No. 1 pick.
Because no one is stupid enough to think that the Philadelphia 76ers will not take Georgetown University's leading guard Allen Iverson with the first pick!
Although Allen Iverson's scandals are constantly being uncovered, the NBA is a place where strength is king. As for personal ethics, this is not something that teams and fans are concerned about.
Not knowing what Lao Qiao was doing behind his back, Kobe and Wang Dazhi just focused on practicing hard all day long.
They will always discuss the draft after training.
Wang Dazhi: “It’s quite hard these days waiting for the draft!
Come on draft day!"
After all, he participated in the draft to change the direction of history. He had no idea what the final outcome would be.
Kobe: "Yeah! I'm so tired of listening to these experts' analysis every day!
Sitting in the studio every day and talking non-stop, they can continue to do this kind of work!"
Kobe's mentality is similar to Wang Dazhi's, but Wang Dazhi couldn't tell Kobe that he would be selected by the Charlotte Hornets with the 13th pick in the first round, and then be immediately traded to the Lakers.
Wang Dazhi: "Which team do you think you will be selected by?"
Kobe: "Looking at the current situation, the Lakers probably won't be able to select me with the 24th pick. What I most hope is that Boston uses their 6th pick to select me.
Then you were signed by the Los Angeles Lakers with No. 24, and we continued the magnificent yellow-green war!
If I wear green clothes, your Lakers will always finish second, haha!"
Kobe was still dreaming that Cardinal Auerbach could use the No. 6 pick to keep him in Boston, but he didn't know that the lanky Anthony Walker was the Celtics' ultimate target.
Wang Dazhi: "I think I should have a chance, after all that day I beat up Jermaine O'Neal and the big Lithuanian guy!
I see that the draft predictions of these two guys are around fifteen in the first round.
A winner to me is worth the No. 24 pick in the first round, so it should be a very good deal for the Lakers!"
Wang Dazhi was still here dreaming of his spring and autumn dreams. At this time, he didn't know that without Lao Qiao's initiative, the Lakers management would not consider him at all.
Kobe: "You really played well that day. If I were Jerry West, I would definitely choose you!"
Kobe recalled the situation that day. He had rarely seen Wang Dazhi look so aggressive.
Wang Dazhi: "If I were Jerry West and I drafted you, I would trade you. If I don't use anyone else, I would trade you for Divac!"
Let’s see who doesn’t change!”
Wang Dazhi once again showed his skills as a magic stick.
Kobe: "So if you are not Jerry West and trade Vlade Divac for a rookie, I think you are crazy!"
If Jerry West makes such a move, it goes without saying that owner Buss won’t agree, and even the fans of the Los Angeles Lakers won’t agree!”
Although Kobe was extremely conceited, at this time he did not believe that his value could be compared with that of the Lakers' starting center, Vlade Divac.
Wang Dazhi: "Do you remember that I told you that Michael Jordan can't play in Major League Baseball at all, and he will return to the NBA soon.
You see, he won the O’Brien Cup again this year!”
Wang Dazhi, who has been there, certainly knows whether Kobe is worth Divac.
Kobe Bryant: "Many people were right about Michael Jordan, but it's different when you said the Lakers would trade Vlade Divac for me.
What happened with Michael Jordan is like the probability of winning a Coke at McDonald's, but the probability of what happened with me and Vlade Divac is like winning the lottery jackpot!"
At the age of 17, Kobe became very interested in shooting percentage.
Wang Dazhi: "Then let's wait and see!
Compared to being a power forward on the court, the position that best reflects my ability is definitely the general manager of the team!"
Of course this bull king Da Zhi dares to brag casually. With his experience, it should not take five years to build a weak team into a championship.
Wang Dazhi didn't want to show off with Kobe, he just wanted to establish a tall and powerful image in Kobe's heart.
