Li Kaiming sat in the audience, surrounded by lottery picks who had received invitations from the Little Green Room, and their families.
Next to him were Sun Jianguo and Monica. Sun Lan and Jiang Shan were whispering to the side. Jiang Shan laughed like a silver bell from time to time, and then raised her head to peek at Li Kaiming.
Apparently, his dear aunt Sun Lan was telling Jiang Shan something embarrassing about his childhood!
Li Kaiming was speechless, aunt, in public, what you do is tantamount to stripping me naked...
But he was embarrassed to talk about Sun Lan, and Jiang Shan herself seemed to be very interested in this...
Thinking of this, Li Kaiming's face turned darker...
Monica on the side seemed to see the uneasiness on Li Kaiming's face, lowered her head and asked in concern, "Li, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
As Li Kaiming's agent, she naturally wanted to help Li Kaiming clear all obstacles on such an important occasion.
Smelling the faint fragrance of hair coming from the tip of his nose, Li Kaiming smiled and shook his head, "I'm fine."
At this time, the host on the scene had finished his opening remarks and finally said, "I would like to invite NBA President Mr. David Stern to come on stage to announce the results of the 2010 NBA Draft!"
The audience immediately burst into intense applause!
The gray-haired David Stern, wearing a brown suit, slowly walked onto the stage under the leadership of the staff.
Stern stood in front of the podium with the 2010 draft icon, stood still, and then said to the camera, "The 2010 NBA Draft begins now! The first pick, the Washington Wizards!"
The scene erupted into thunderous applause!
After Stern announced the start of the draft, the Washington Wizards had five minutes to decide who they would select with the No. 1 pick!
The scene suddenly became quiet, and the camera moved to focus on the draft players in the audience.
Mainly Li Kaiming and John Wall.
In the camera, Li Kaiming's expression is very natural, and his chest rises and falls regularly, indicating that he is in a very peaceful mood.
But John Wall is different. Although the expression on his face has not changed much, a layer of dense beads of sweat has appeared on his forehead. Under the lighting of the scene, the reflected light makes his forehead It looks very bright!
Moreover, his breathing was a little rapid, and it seemed that he was in a very uneasy mood.
In the studio of CCTV Sports Channel in China, Zhang Weiping couldn't help laughing when he saw the performance of Li Kaiming and Wall.
"Look, what is the demeanor of a general, who is as immovable as a mountain? Look at that John Wall, he can't hold on to such a scene, and he will definitely have no future in the future!"
Su Qun on the side couldn't help but smile bitterly. You always like Li Kaiming everywhere. Can you tell whether this thing has a future?
Before the time had reached five minutes, a staff member from the audience took a folded card, walked quickly to the stage, and handed the card to Stern.
In such a short period of time, the Wizards decided who to choose. It seems that they did not spend much effort in making this choice.
Seeing that the results of the Wizards had come out, everyone in the audience couldn't help but hold their breath and concentrate.
John Wall clenched his fists involuntarily, then turned his head to look at Li Kaiming not far away.
Li Kaiming still had a faint smile on his face and looked as usual.
Wall took a deep breath, then forced himself not to look at Li Kaiming, staring at Stern on the stage.
But his heartbeat is getting faster and faster...
On the stage, under the gaze of millions of people, Stern opened the card in his hand, and then raised his eyebrows involuntarily.
Then, Stern raised his head, glanced at John Wall first, and then turned his attention to Li Kaiming.
His series of actions, in the eyes of outsiders, have a hint of something else...
Many people have had other thoughts in their minds. Could it be that the Wizards didn't select Li Kaiming...
In the CCTV studio, Zhang Weiping felt his heart skip a beat when he saw Stern's actions!
"The Wizards won't be stupid. Let's leave Li Kaiming alone and choose Wall?"
Su Qun's heart tightened subconsciously, "Probably not..."
It's just that these words were really unconfident and did not give Director Zhang any comfort at all.
Stern's Adam's apple rolled up and down, then he smiled and read the results on the card into the microphone.
"In the 2010 draft, the Washington Wizards selected...Li Kaiming!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into applause!
Li Kaiming stood up and hugged his uncle Sun Jianguo, his aunt Sun Lan, his manager Monica, and Jiang Shan, whose identity was still embarrassing.
With a confident smile on his face, he adjusted the collar of his suit and walked to the side of the stage.
A staff member had already prepared a baseball cap with the Wizards emblem printed on it. Li Kaiming took it and put the hat on his head as he stepped onto the stage.
It's just the right size, almost tailor-made for him!
He walked to the center of the stage, and the affable white man had already extended his hand.
Li Kaiming immediately greeted him, and then held hands with Stern.
The whole place flashes constantly!
Li Kaiming and Li Kaiming smiled at the camera, setting a tone for tonight's draft.
…
John Wall in the audience looked at Li Kaiming's smile on the stage and couldn't help but clenched his fists!
This position should have been his...
In the CCTV studio, Director Zhang and Su Qun were relieved to see that the Wizards still selected Li Kaiming!
Director Zhang couldn't help but sigh, "The Wizards' choice is very reasonable..."
After the group photo ended, Li Kaiming walked off the stage and returned to his original seat.
His mood only fluctuated a little bit when he took a photo with Stern. At other times, there was no feeling of excitement at all.
It's like he deserved to be selected with the No. 1 pick by the Wizards...
But the mood of his companion was different. If the scene was not inappropriate, Sun Jianguo would have taken out a Chinese flower and started celebrating.
Sun Lan also covered her mouth and nose, tears kept flowing...
Monica and Jiang Shan were happy for Li Kaiming from the bottom of their hearts.
They all have interests related to Li Kaiming. The better Li Kaiming is, the better they will be.
The draft is still going on, but it has nothing to do with Li Kaiming.
John Wall was selected second overall by the Philadelphia 76ers.
Without Li Kaiming, John Wall's position is still very stable.
The Philadelphia 76s were really lucky this year, with a 5% probability of getting the second pick, but this year another Li Kaiming came out!
No matter whether the Wizards choose Li Kaiming or Wall, the 76ers will not lose!
The Nets used the second pick to acquire Evan Turner from Ohio State University.
The Golden State Warriors selected DeMarcus Cousins with the No. 6 pick.
Li Kaiming's old rival Hayward was selected by the Pacers, and the New Orleans Hornets used the No. 11 pick to select Paul George from Fresno State University...
The Toronto Raptors took Li Kaiming's good brother Elliot Williams with the 13th pick. Poor Elliott was convinced by Li Kaiming's prophecy and was directly sent to the North...
However, Li Kaiming still congratulated him. Although the Raptors' geographical location is not very good, Williams' predicted pick has been much higher than before.
From the very beginning of predicting the end of the first round to the end of the lottery during the draft, Williams has not lost anything from a salary perspective.
Moreover, Toronto is not as prosperous as other big cities, so Williams will focus more on practicing...
All in all, what Li Kaiming means is, go to Toronto, it is for your own good!
But Williams' expression doesn't look like he's happy...
