Going to the Pistons, Anthony will definitely have to consider more in his actions, and to become bigger and stronger, he will also have to consider the actual situation.

But if he goes to the Nuggets, it will be his world immediately.

Thinking of this, Anthony felt like a blessing in disguise.

He has great confidence in himself.

There is already a way. Anthony was a little cautious at first, but now the boss's aura is gone, and he complained to Liu Xiu: "Jace, if you are thinner and control your body shape, you will have a greater chance of being selected."

Liu Xiu looked at Anthony and saw that he was still not fat, but very thin and muscular.

Liu Xiu nodded and said, "Don't worry, you will also become fat one day."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"What if you really get fat?"

"If I really get fat, I will give it to you..."

"You're going to perform standing on your head while washing your hair on a live broadcast across the United States!"

"???"

Anthony wanted to bet $100, but this guy actually came up with such a weird punishment.

Anthony wanted to refuse, but when he saw Liu Xiu's "you would never dare" look in his eyes, he blurted out: "Just bet!"

Before he gained weight, Anthony didn't think he would become fat in the future, so he decided to do it.

But after answering, Anthony felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong...

As the draft continued, Liu Xiu noticed that Anthony's mood rose and then returned to the mentality of a crowd of spectators.

Liu Xiu knew that he would definitely not be selected with such a high pick. After the first three picks, his attention would not be completely focused on the stage.

He opened the system panel.

"Name: Liu Xiu, English name: Jess.

Age: 21 years old (February 17, 1982)

Height: 188 cm, weight: 93 kg.

Team: Syracuse University Orangemen (withdrew).

Achievements: NCAA basketball championship in the 2002-2003 season.

Data: In the 2002-2003 season, he averaged 12.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 2 steals per game..."

Whether you are fat or not fat depends on whose eyes you are.

Compared with most of the Little Green House members here, Liu Xiu is definitely fat and has perfect abdominal muscles.

His flesh is much tighter than that of ordinary people, and he can't really be called fat. After all, he is an athlete, and his figure is closer to that of ordinary people who are heavier. Compared with his teammates, he looks chubby, which actually makes him more popular among the fans of the school team.

.

Liu Xiu reviewed his college performance. Although he was 21 years old and in his junior year, he actually only played for this year.

He only officially started to contact college basketball in his junior year. From not having a chance to play in the opening game, to starting in the middle of the season, to becoming the team's second leading scorer in March Madness, he averaged 15 points and 6 assists in those 6 games... This is

The core reason why he has high draft expectations.

His current body shape, from a certain perspective, is one of the reasons why he has high draft expectations.

But the age of 21 is indeed a hurdle that cannot be overcome.

Just maybe in case?

So he got a ridiculously wide range of draft expectations from mid-first round to undrafted.

Liu Xiu didn't know which pick he would be selected in, and was even prepared to lose, keeping his expectations to a minimum.

He even felt that he was able to get the draft expectations in the middle of the first round because the league selected him into the Little Green Room.

Therefore, he chose to watch the draft with the mentality of a crowd of spectators. Even if he was not selected, or the pick was too late and was not taken seriously, at least he could spend a few days in the hotel provided by the league to the members of the Little Green Room, and he could still go to the scene to watch.

In the draft, the treatment is much better than that of other low-round picks.

"Maybe some teams will really take a chance on me if I am young in the draft. The 2003 class will be a bit difficult..."

'If I'm lucky enough to be selected, I'll play in the summer league. If I'm in the first round, I'm guaranteed and don't have to worry so much. If I'm not selected in the second round... just take it one step at a time.'

After Anthony, Bosh and Wade were selected with the fourth and fifth picks respectively.

Bosh was selected by the Raptors with the fourth overall pick. The rookies at the scene were all surprised, but the Heat did not choose Chris Kaman!

During the trial training period, Pat Riley caught Bosh, Kaman, and Hinrich and praised him as the next Garnett, the next Mourning, the next Stockton... People all thought that the Heat would be the next one.

One of these three people will be selected. Among them, Kaman has the highest call for being among the top five picks. According to the earliest predictions, Kaman may even be selected into the top three picks.

Although Wade is not as well-known in the United States as Milicic, he is only expected to be around the tenth pick in the draft.

However, there was a surprising move by the Pistons. Wade was selected with the fifth overall pick, which caused little stir and was just an upset.

Immediately afterwards, Kaman, who thought he was going to join the Heat, was selected with the sixth pick, and another rookie Kirk Hinrich, who had always wanted to join the Heat, was selected by the Bulls with the seventh pick.

Liu Xiu saw Hinrich walking on the stage and shaking hands with David Stern and kept staring at Wade... 'No wonder he caught Wade and beat him to death when he got the chance...'

Liu Xiu thought about the first round of the 2006-07 season playoffs in the original time and space. The defending champion was swept and bloodbathed. As a result, Hinrich won a five-year, 50 million contract that he should not have received based on his strength.

Then the Bucks took TJ Ford with the eighth pick.

The Bucks, who have not reached an agreement on renewing Payton's contract, will definitely choose TJ Ford or Hinrich if they have the opportunity. The Bucks' target was not TJ Ford at first, but TJ Ford actually fell to the eighth pick.

, naturally want to win.

The Knicks selected Georgia State's Michael Sweetney with the ninth pick.

The Wizards selected another talent from Georgia State University, Jarvis Hayes, with the 10th pick.

Liu Xiu has an impression of these two people. In the top 16, the opponent Syracuse University defeated was the Georgia State University Bulldogs. This team has many talented players who may enter the NBA and are stronger than Bosh.

Georgia Tech is strong.

As the draft progressed, the remaining members of the Green Room who were not selected no longer cared about which pick they were, and no longer felt unhappy that they were not selected with a higher pick. They just wanted to hear that they were heard immediately.

name.

They are already panicking, the problem now is that they haven't been selected yet!

Liu Xiu knows that the 2003 draft class can be called the platinum generation purely because of the first few picks. The top players in this draft class are very top-notch, but first-class stars and ordinary starting-level players are different from those in ordinary draft years.

They don't necessarily have an advantage, they are purely supported by high-end combat power.

But at the moment, people are very optimistic about this rookie class, and their expectations for them are a combination of the 1996 class + the 1997 class. Such public opinion also makes the members of the Little Green Room have high expectations for themselves.

But Milicic and Wade were selected in the top five picks, and the Clippers and Bucks picked Kaman and TJ Ford, whom they didn't think they could draft, respectively. The entire draft was in chaos.

The Knicks and Wizards, they directly gave up on the people they originally planned to draft and chose the two who are currently considered to be the most talented.

With such a turmoil, the members of Green Room, who originally had expectations for a higher position but already had their hearts set on belonging, didn't know where their future lay.

More than half of the 19 members in the Little Green Room have been selected. The remaining ones include Brian Cook of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Michael Pietrus of France, Reese Gaines of the University of Louisville,

Boston College's Troy Bell, Duke University's Dengta Jones, Serbia's Zako Kabakapa, Montenegro's Aleksandar Pavlovich, Mississippi's Starkville High School's Travis

Outlaw, and Liu Xiu.

Counting Liu Xiu, nearly half of the Green Room members who have not yet been drafted are overseas players. In this draft, there are five Green Room members who have no American basketball experience at all. Except for Milicic, none of them have yet been selected.

.

This is why Anthony can't even remember Milicic's name. He doesn't care at all about those competitors who have no American basketball experience at all.

With the 11th pick, the second overseas player with no U.S. basketball experience was selected. The Warriors selected Michael Pietrus from the French Baoufs team.

There are only two spots left in the lottery, and everyone is eagerly looking at David Stern who returns to the stage again.

This time the name David Stern read was Nick Collison from the University of Kansas!

This person is not a member of Little Green Room, but he is very famous. He represented the United States team in the World Championships last year and was beaten by various European centers...

Seeing Nick Collison rushing from the candidate room after receiving the notice, the members of the Little Green Room who had not yet been selected had no intention of criticizing anything and felt increasingly uneasy.

Among the rookies who participated in the draft, who was not a talent in high school or college? But in the draft, these members of the Little Green Room who have not yet been selected have already suffered their first big blow when entering society.

Now, there is only one lottery spot left!

It's not just a matter of face.

Teams in the lottery, with the exception of the Pistons, who received the Grizzlies' unprotected draft picks this year a few years ago, all other teams in the lottery represent more opportunities.

The higher the pick, the weaker the team. For rookies, this is an opportunity.

Even if it is only the 13th pick, for a rookie, he has more opportunities than a team with a pick further down.

Moreover, this year's 13th pick is not in the hands of the Rockets, who have won 45 games and have a basically complete starting lineup, but in the hands of the Grizzlies, who originally drew the second pick!

Compared with Francis, Mobley, and Yao Ming of the Rockets, Gasol, Battier and others of the Grizzlies are obviously easier to bully.

The rookies who are selected into the Little Green Room all regard themselves as future superstars.

What happened to the 13th pick? He still wants to become a superstar!
