James’s relatives and friends gave a roar of excitement and kept cheering into Anthony’s ears, which made him feel even more upset.
Man is an insatiable animal. When you have no expectations, you can be satisfied with something to give, but when you have a chance to get better, you will become extremely depressed and resentful. This is the biggest feature of human greed.
In the future, if Andrews doesn’t tell Anthony that he and Grant have reached an agreement, he thinks it’s also a good choice to enter the nba according to Anthony’s old road, but he really has the expectation of the top draft, and Andrews’s confidence directly makes him feel like falling from heaven to hell.
"19-year-old small forward from St. Vincent’s St. Mary’s High School"
David stern continued to introduce James’ personal situation, and the big screen also showed clips of James’ high school game.
Soon, nba staff brought James a Cleveland Cavaliers cap. James kissed his mother on the cheek and hugged his friends, and then walked to the stage under the guidance of the staff.
Watching James walk onto the stage, Andrews turned pale. How did this happen? I talked to Grant earlier about why they would choose James, a high school student.
The whole table was silent, and no one spoke. Andrews was particularly embarrassed, but now he has to make a verbal agreement with Grant. The so-called verbal agreement has no actual terms to bind the defaulting party, and there is no need to bear the consequences.
After five minutes of silence, it passed quickly and david stern came out again. This time, the Pistons team logo flashed behind him.
Once again, the players and spectators in the little green room focused on the white-haired old man in front of them.
Kiki vandeweghe, the draft office of Nuggets, sat there smiling and watched Grant choose James, a high school student. He couldn’t help but be elated. Before that, he bribed several workers in the Cavaliers’ draft team to keep bragging to Grant about how good James was and how many shortcomings Anthony had. From the current results, his plan was successful.
Seeing that the Pistons chose him, he couldn’t wait. Because of the same thing, he also worked for the Pistons draft team. He believed his intuition that Anthony was about to enter Denver.
"The second pick of the Detroit Pistons in the nba in 23 years" david stern paused as usual.
The scene is still quiet than a few children screaming.
Anthony looked at Stern intently. Now he was expecting something and struggling. His heart was out of control and he was pounding again.
"darko milicic"
Milicic got up and bowed to the people around him, and then hugged all the friends around him. As a result, the workers handed me the cap and walked towards the stage.
"Sure enough …"
Anthony’s heart dropped at a high speed and shuddered involuntarily. He looked up at the stage and took a photo with Stern. milicic finally realized one thing that he had crossed, but he could not change the history, which was moving in the direction he should go.
"Heartbroken? Do you want to change this sad fate? "
"Dare not decide?"
Anthony recalled the two lines of black words that came to his mind. He chose to dare, but can he really change?
"A bunch of bastards!"
Andrews couldn’t help swearing, but Mata returned to silence. Although the player’s future is not necessarily a draft decision, think about the rookie’s success rate in the second round and the first round. The lottery is the same as the champion. Most of the time, a team chooses the champion as the cornerstone of the team. The lottery is full of too many unknowns, and the status represents the contract. It is no wonder that Andrews will be rude in public.
"Melo, my child, don’t worry. Mom believes you," Mary comforted her son at this moment.
"Brother, I also believe that you will definitely be you!" Daphne vowed to say
Anthony wanted to say something, but in the end he looked at Daphne’s lovely face and said "Yes".
"The Nuggets are in Denver Plateau, which is not a good place. Toronto is in Canada. I hope they will not choose you but let you go to Miami. It is a big city, and the Heat didn’t play in Mourning last year. The old man should not be far from retiring. If you go, it will be the cornerstone of the team building," said Andrews analyst.
"I hope so," Anthony smiled and said.
His voice just fell and david stern walked onto the stage for the third time.
In the draft, david stern, an old man over sixty years old, was tired to go in and out sixty times.
Kiki vandeweghe, the draft office of the Nuggets, rubbed his hands. Although he already knew the result, he still looked forward to that moment.
The players on the pitch, including Dwight Wade, chris bosh, chris kaman Kirk Hinrich, are all promising to enter the top three. At this moment, their hearts are very upset. This is the last chance for the top three.
The audience was so quiet that even the children who were noisy were silent.
David Stern, the logo of Nuggets, is floating on the stage screen, holding a card to read out the ownership of the 23-year nba flower probe.
"The third pick of Denver Nuggets in 23 years"
David stern habitually had a meal.
"If … if it’s really me, what should I do? Can I really change this sad history? Or will you go with the flow of history and relive Anthony’s sad career? "
Anthony’s mind is full of thoughts at this time, and he is quietly waiting for the fate sentence with his head down.
"carmelo anthony"
Anthony heart "hitched" a physical conditioning reflex.
"yeah!" Daphne shouted excitedly.
In the corner of Mary’s eye, there were tears of excitement. Her son succeeded, and all her sufferings were over.
"19-year-old freshman from Syracuse University"
As david stern introduced the overhead camera, Anthony and Mary hugged and kissed on the cheek.
When he got up and was ready to walk to the stage, he looked up and saw that Hinrich had stretched out his thumb in the distance. His mouth seemed to be saying some congratulations. Because of the distance and the noisy environment around him, he couldn’t hear clearly. He could smile and respond and then walked to the stage.
"Melo Melo …"
In the stands, the fans of the Nuggets shouted Anthony’s name wildly and put on various exaggerated gestures to express their excitement about Anthony.
Anthony walked slowly along the stage steps.
He was still worried when he was on the stage, but at the moment he stepped on the stage, he turned around and looked at the stands. More than 20 thousand people called for a tsunami, and the feeling suddenly swayed, but he stood in the same place for a while.
Not only the 20,000 people in front of him, but also others are in front of him, far beyond the ocean, and his motherland is watching him. At this moment, he is the focus of the whole world.
David stern looked at the young man in front of him and didn’t come over and shake hands with him like others, thinking that maybe he was too excited. He was over 60 years old and naturally wouldn’t care about the young man. He came from the podium and walked towards him on the edge of the stage.
