1. Basketball Dream

"Gary Smith from Syracuse University!"

New York City under the night sky is shining with stars, and several helicopters are constantly hovering in the air.

The stars shone in the Barclays Center Stadium in New York, and Gary Smith quickly walked onto the central stage with cheers. He looked a little confused and a little panicked.

In the world's first Barclays Center Arena, which costs more than $1 billion, the spotlights kept flashing, and hundreds of millions of viewers watched the live broadcast of the talent show, and people kept cheering in the audience.

In fact, this draft has come to an end. After Ayton, Bagley, Doncic and others were selected, the audience's attention disappeared from the draft list.

Apart from the lottery area, the remaining players have few highlights, let alone the guys in the second round.

Rookies who can rank in the second round either have insufficient talent or have obvious shortcomings. Although the league has many great deeds of second-round picks making a comeback, that is only an individual.

The last one who was called was only a final pick, and the scene was given great respect.

The DJ shouted out his name loudly, and the audience burst into a brief applause, and finally returned to peace.

Gary Smith kept smiling as much as possible. Half an hour ago, he was a 29-year-old unemployed young man named Lam who lives in China. Half an hour later, he went to the Barclays Center to attend the 2018 NBA Draft.

Now he was confused, wondering whether it was a dream or his head was crazy.

What surprised him even more was that the one who chose him with the last round draw was the giant Los Angeles Lakers.

This made him a little dazed. He remembered that the last round pick in 2018 belonged to Antetokounmpo's younger brother and was selected by the Mavericks.

Just twenty minutes ago, he learned from his agent backstage that the Lakers management decided to buy the final pick of the Dallas Mavericks an hour ago, and selected 190-centimeter point guard Gary Smith from a bunch of rookies who were about to be out.

After accepting the cheers, he entered the backstage bathroom and lay in front of the bathroom to look at himself in the mirror.

He poured a basin of water on his head and watched the cold water pour from head to bottom.

"Oh no Gary, I know you're excited, but you can't have any accidents right now, you should understand that Los Angeles means that it's a big stage, there are countless bills and attention."

Following him in was Pangpin's agent Perkins, who is just like Lam Feng.

Lin Feng turned around and nodded, "I understand, sir, I just want to be alone and quiet."

Then he made a gesture of asking for departure, Perkins shook his head with a wry smile, and then closed the door.

Gary Smith is just a final round pick, and it is usually difficult to make a name for this position. Although there are many players like Arenas and Thomas Jr. who make a name for themselves, they are more indifferent to the public.

Perhaps watching the water dispenser waving the towel is the fate of the final pick, and perhaps not being able to make it to the 15-man roster, so you can only go to the Development League to wait for opportunities.

Agent Perkins understands this very well, and of course he will not put his hope on a final pick. It can be said that since the moment the door was closed, he has given up on Gary Smith.

The bathroom door closed, and memories poured into Lin Feng's mind little by little.

After traveling through time, I was a 19-year-old basketball player. My biological father was unknown and my mother was a call girl. After giving birth to me, I threw the child into the trash can and continued to mess with the man.

The thirty-year-old tramp adopted father brought himself back to his slum home and raised him.

I loved basketball since I was a child. I led the school team to win a community championship in junior high school. After high school, I became famous in Rock Park in Harlem. Until I was discovered by a scout from Syracuse University, which changed his life since then.

Syracuse University, this is Cameron Anthony's alma mater, the NCAA champion in 2002-03!

Then he successfully received the full scholarship and served as the starting point guard of the school team in his freshman year.

With outstanding talent and a rebellious personality developed since childhood, Gary Smith was suspended for one year in his sophomore year because of a conflict with his teammates. During the ban, he drank heavily and picked up girls. After returning from junior year, he only played eight games due to physical reasons, averaging 4.7 points and 2 rebounds per game.

The frustrated self decided to participate in the draft under the lobbying of his agent Perkins, and then the scene five minutes ago, he was selected by the Lakers with the 60th pick.

This is a result that many people have expected, because from the draft report, Gary Smith is basically a terrible player, and his only advantage is that he has a wide field vision.

The template is a guy named Pierre Jackson. Lam can't remember who this person is. I'm afraid he is a character player drowned in the dust of basketball.

The NBA is an extremely cruel place, with hundreds of millions of dollars and spotlights, luxury houses and sports cars, sexy beauties, etc. Of course, there are countless small characters with tens of thousands of salary, stubbornly pursuing their basketball dreams.

Knowing his life experience, Lin Feng calmed down much. He had a painful past like many stars.

For example, James, a billionaire who came out of the slums, is a role model for countless struggling players.

In the last world, Lam Feng also tried hard to pursue his basketball dream, but unfortunately, the domestic environment does not allow it and his talent is not enough. Although he entered the CBA team's echelon, he still had no choice but to give up as he got older.

In the last world, Lin Feng thought that he could enter the NBA like Yao Ming and defeat all the world in the top courts. Since elementary school, he would hold basketballs at night when he sleeps. After a night of basketball dream, he would go to school with a ball the next day. This is a portrayal of his life, a fanatical disciple with a height of 178 cm.

His idol is Uncle Drew - Kyrie Irving. Before Lin Feng traveled through time in the last time, Irving just announced that he would join hands with Durant to join the Nets. This news made Lin Feng excited.

Very cool! That man with sexy eyes!

Lin Feng once held his phone and played back Owen's highlights over and over again. He is the No.1 in Lin Feng's mind!

Now, Lin Feng has become an NBA player named Gary Smith. Gary has his own glorious past and has been lost for a while, but now he has been back to the basketball court.

Lin Feng could feel the love for basketball in his body. He understood what kind of person Gary was, and he could empathize with it most.

Because the two are now combined into one, Gary's basketball dream and Lin Feng's basketball soul will surely give birth to a new figure who shocked the league!

This must be the case!

Lin Feng's fist hit the toilet, and he was extremely excited.

Basketball, NBA, Los Angeles Lakers, those once distant names become within reach.

"Gary, you like basketball too, right?" Lin Feng's voice trembled a little. He thought his body was trembling, which was the reaction of every muscle in his body after hearing the word "basketball".

He stared at himself in the mirror. Although his face was a little strange, the burning flames' eyes did not change.

I can't be familiar with it, that's when I was nineteen years old!

The boy who once pursued his basketball dream is back, yes, it is him, the young man who is considered a lunatic.

OK, forget the past!

Everything starts over.

Going to TMD basketball dream, this is no longer just imagination, but reality!
