At this time, at home far away in China, Xue’s father and mother Xue were also watching the NBA draft live broadcast with their neighbors in front of TV.

Seeing Xue Ding's appearance.

Aunt Zhou's eyes lit up in front of her neighbor.

"Xiao Ding is getting more and more handsome as she grows. I have a relative girl who studies art and is very beautiful. Lao Xue, will I introduce Xiao Ding tomorrow?"

Aunt Zhou looked at Dad Xue and said.

"Well, that's great. Xiaoding is still alone now. I'm worried that he can't find a wife. Where is that girl?" Xue Ma said directly.

"From Xinjiang, I heard that I'm still filming recently."

"Well, all the girls who film are beautiful, and Xiaoding is so handsome, so girls will definitely like it." Although Xue's mother thought Xue Ding was so handsome, she must be praised as a foreigner.

Dad Xue was just watching TV, but he ignored these girls... he thought about this mess every day.

On TV, the talent show is about to begin.

Xue Ding was not able to enter the small green house, and he was arranged in the banquet hall.

CCTV5's camera lenses swept through the luxurious private rooms in Madison Square Garden one by one.

Xue’s father, who is also a fan, knows that the managers of the teams here are now in a state of great anxiety.

Now any call or note inside may change Xue Ding's life trajectory.

Dad Xue never expected that his son would actually arrive at the NBA draft one day. At this moment, he was as nervous as Xue Ding.

After a while.

The lights on the TV screen dimmed.

NBA League President David Stern was the first to come on stage. Xue Ding looked at the old man who led the NBA to the world curiously, with admiration in his eyes.

The NBA who experienced the era of Xiao Hua.

Only then will I miss Stern's era.

Xue Ding has always believed that not to mention that football has a much higher status in the United States than basketball.

Will the sensational performance of the football stars joining teams to participate in the Olympics?

Apart from the United States, there are really not many places to play football, so I just have fun.

Worldwide, football is the number one sport and basketball is the second sport, which is undisputed!!

Xue Ding recalled the Dream Team, the Flying Man, the Bull Dynasty, the OK group, Yao Mai, the Yellow and Green War, and the 50 superstars who fought countless people in the Internet era. This is all youth...

Only when people lose it will they know how awesome Stern was. When Xiao Hua takes office and makes the NBA storm, fans will know how awesome Stern was.

The NBA League and many fans should say "Thank you!" to Stern. Without him, many classics will not be able to appear. At least in the NBA after Xiao Hua took office, people will not remember several classic games.

Only by comparing it more can you realize it is valuable!!

"Gentlemen, ladies, I know you don't want to see me, but I still have to say a few words..."

After Stern's speech won applause.

After a while, the talent show finally climaxed in the rhythm of DJ!!!

Stern took the first envelope from the staff, opened it and took out a piece of paper.

Xue Ding stared at the old man tightly. Although he knew that it was impossible for his name to appear on the first one, he was still very nervous!!

Stern's movements were not too fast.

Fans who watched the draft live broadcast hate this guy, and everyone wanted to rush to the stage and snatch the notes from Stern to read them.

Can't this person move faster? Can you stop talking like this?

Stern signaled calmness. After he smiled, he spoke, "2009 NBA Draft, the first pick in the first round of the Los Angeles Clippers..." Stern deliberately paused and smiled, "Blake Griffin from the University of Oklahoma!!!"

No surprises, Xue Ding was relieved when he heard that he was still stupid.

Amid the audience's applause, Shafen, in a suit and tie, stood up, put on a hat, hugged her family first, then waved to the people around her, and slowly walked onto the central stage. He seemed to take everything for granted, and his expression was quite calm...

Shafen was very happy to shake hands with Stern on stage. Xue Ding knew that this guy would represent the Clippers in the 2009 NBA Summer League and could also win the MVP of the Summer League. However, the day before the start of the season, he would have to be on standby for a year due to a stress fracture of his left knee kneecap. Next year is the time for him to return, and this year's NBA does not belong to him.

After Shafen shook hands with Stern.

"KaKaKa" took a photo.

Stern continued his work.

"The second pick in the first round of the NBA draft in 2009, the Memphis Grizzlies chose the University of Connecticut Hashem Tabitt..."

.....

"The third pick in the first round of the NBA draft in 2009, the Ohiolahoma City Thunder chose Arizona State University James Harden..."

......

......

"The 7th pick in the first round of the NBA draft in 2009, the Golden State Warriors chose Stephen Curry, Davidson College..."

.....

There were no many surprises.

Everything is going on according to Xue Ding's memory.

As time goes on.

The geniuses of the Little Green House walked out one by one, and some people laughed happily, such as Harden.

Some people laughed reluctantly, for example, Curry didn't want to go to the Warriors at all, he wanted to go to the Knicks, but he had no choice but to intercept the Knicks one pick higher than the Warriors.

As Stern's speech speed accelerated, Xue Ding became more and more nervous because he knew he was getting closer and closer to his ranking.

Will the Lakers choose you?

Or the Rockets?

Timberwolves?

Spurs?

During the trial, Xue Ding roughly knew that these teams wanted to choose themselves and wanted to choose them.

But there is not much guarantee for this talent show!

Even if you choose, you may be traded. The draft promise means that you are a spare tire...

Xue Ding hopes that the damn first-round draft pick will end quickly, and the time here is really tormenting.

......

"The Portland Trail Blazers, No. 22nd pick in the first round of the NBA in 2009, selected Xue Ding from the University of Washington!!"

Xue Ding was still predicting where he would be selected in the second round. Xue Ding heard Stern's voice.

With a bang, Xue Ding's thoughts were completely confused.

"First round?"

“22nd ranking?”

"pioneer?"

A team that was completely unexpected to Xue Ding's surprise made a move!

History changes.

As soon as Stern's voice came out, many luxurious private rooms were in chaos.

Popovich and Buford also smiled helplessly, and failed to find the bargain...

Chinese fans who watched the draft on TV and online were very excited.

22 picks in the first round.

Although it is not as good as Yao Ming and Ah Lian, it is not bad either!!

Yao Ming was injured in the playoffs against the Lakers and his return date is not yet determined.

Alien's situation at the Nets is not good, and Sun Yue's future with the Lakers is uncertain.

Under such circumstances, Xue Ding, who ranked 22nd, made Chinese fans full of expectations for the NBA next season.

"Xue! Go up!"

Tom was excited and poked Xue Ding, who was a little stunned on the side.

Xue Ding's excitement made her feel at once.

I am the 22nd pick in the first round!!

Xue Ding stood up, took the hat given to the Trail Blazers team logo given by the staff, put it on, and then walked to the main stage with confidence.

"Xue, I hope you are better than Yao!"

While shaking hands with David Stern, Xue Ding heard Stern's expectations.

......

When Xue’s parents and mothers saw Xue Ding say on the stage that the person he was most grateful to was his parents.

Xue’s father and mother’s eyes were moist.

Xue’s father remembered the memories of Xue Ding practicing football when he was a child without any obstacles.

"Child, what you should thank the most is your hard work! Thank you for your self who loves basketball day after day, year after year!"

......

After stepping down.

Tom appeared beside Xue Ding with a smile on his face.
Chapter completed!
