He just played basketball and became the chosen one.

Chapter 33 033: A completely different 03 draft pick, finally able to use the prostitution system for free!

Ryan signed a sneaker endorsement contract worth 1.2 million without playing a single NBA game.

Excluding people like Jordan who directly want equity.

This is the most expensive cash endorsement contract in NBA history!

Because it happened in the early morning, many fans were still sleeping.

And people these days are not in the habit of staying up late playing with their mobile phones to watch female Bodhisattvas.

So when the news broke, there was no reaction from North America.

But early the next morning, many people who were sitting in the living room after washing, eating breakfast and watching TV, or listening to the radio during the morning rush hour, instantly became energetic.

"Wtf 1.2 million!? That 18-year-old guy has already made 1.2 million before even knocking on the door of the NBA!?"

"Ryan hasn't even played an NBA game yet? Reebok is crazy!"

"What is the concept of 1.2 million? You can buy a 79-gram eyebrow pencil for 0.08 yuan. From now on, Ryan will buy eyebrow pencils by the ton!"

"This is enough to show Ryan's potential. Even Reebok will not take 1.2 million as a joke. They must be very optimistic about Ryan's prospects, otherwise they would not be so generous."

Ryan's 1.2 million signing has not only triggered heated discussions in the basketball media.

Instead, national newspapers and news outlets are scrambling to report on this astonishing contract.

Experts commented on this in news programs, and editors in newspapers and magazines wrote editorials on it. This has become a social topic!
But these are not the most exaggerated things. The most exaggerated part is that after Reebok signed Ryan, it directly caused the stock prices of Nike and Adidas to plummet!
This is the first time ever!
You know, there are quite a few stars who have changed their sneaker manufacturers this summer.

Kobe Bryant switched from Adidas to Nike, Wolf King switched from AND1 to Adidas, and Dayao switched from Nike to Reebok.

But none of them have yet caused stock market turmoil!
However, Ryan's signing with Reebok for such a large sum of money was not entirely positive.

Some media felt that Reebok lost its mind during the bidding.

Ryan was really strong in college, and he really beat other stars of his age.

But after all, he has never played in the NBA. God knows what level he is at?
If Ryan loses his water by then, Reebok won't have anywhere to cry.

Some media believe that Ryan does have potential, but signing a billion-dollar contract too early will corrode Ryan's positive heart.

How many talented young people sign big contracts and then just sit there and disappear?There are simply not too many examples of this.

Most people are jealous.

Seeing that Ryan has become a billionaire from a poor boy overnight, there are still many people who want to see Ryan turn over.

Many people want to see the joke about Ryan "signing a [-] million yuan contract, but then he can't even hold the ball in the NBA".

But if you want to see Ryan play in the NBA, you have to go through the draft first.

Because of Ryan's 1.2 million contract, today's draft lottery has become extremely hot.

Kecun fans are extremely nervous. They are afraid that other teams will steal Ajan after getting the No. [-] pick!
The Logo Man is the second most nervous, because if the Grizzlies don't get the No. [-] pick, then this pick will go to the Pistons.

All this is because the Pistons and the Grizzlies made a deal in 1997. The Pistons sent Otis Thorpe to the Grizzlies in exchange for a protected first-round pick from the Grizzlies. The time was from 1998 to 2003. You can give it in any year.

However, because the Grizzlies received relatively high picks before, this pick has not been given until now.

If the Grizzlies cannot draw the No. [-] pick this year, then according to the rules, this pick must be given to the Pistons.

By then, the Grizzlies will not be able to pick up a single hair in the 03 draft with so much talent, and they will have a year in vain!
To be honest, Logo also admires the Grizzlies management's cerebral palsy.After all, he only became the general manager of the Grizzlies at the end of 02, and he had no control over what happened before.

Knowing that 00 and 02 were both poor draft years, the Grizzlies could have given away the draft picks in those two years.

As a result, the Grizzlies management chose not to bet on the No. 03 pick in [-].
Why doesn’t the league allow teams to trade first-round picks year after year?It's because some management are so stupid.

Because draft picks are the key to the turnaround of many small teams, in order to prevent some management from being too stupid and causing the draft picks to be defrauded of the turnaround capital, the league has only formulated such a rule.

The purpose is to prevent everyone from cheating fools.

However, it turns out that this rule cannot save all fools.

In short, Logo can only pray for a miracle to happen now.

The Grizzlies got the No. [-] pick and turned around in one fell swoop.

If you can't get it, let it rot and stink in the cotton fields of Tennessee.

At the draw ceremony, all lottery teams were extremely nervous.

In an interview, Logo once again praised Ryan:

“That guy, any city he goes to is going to change the landscape.

When Ryan joined the University of Wisconsin, people said he would make Madison shine like New York.

This is also true, he played a fantastic NCAA season, and the University of Wisconsin has never been so high-profile.

That team that hadn't won a championship in more than half a century immediately won the championship with a complete victory record after having him!

So, can you imagine what Ryan might bring to Memphis?

This will undoubtedly be a day that changes the history of the team, God bless us! "

I don’t know if God heard Logo’s prayer, but the Grizzlies still weren’t drawn until there were only two teams left.

This means that the Grizzlies have a 50% chance of getting the No. [-] pick!

The logo makes me laugh so hard, damn it. Is this shit luck really going to happen to me? ?

Ryan was also at home watching the draft lottery ceremony.

He still remembered that in the original history, the grizzly bear also lived to the end.

But in the end, the No. [-] pick was taken by the Cavaliers.

In this history, the grizzly bear once again stayed until the end, but...
The Cavaliers were already drawn in third place!
That's right, in this history, the Cavaliers have only drawn one third overall pick!
Now competing for the first and second picks are the Grizzlies and Nuggets!
Ryan is not surprised by this. Last year's draft picks were different from the original history, and it is normal for them to change this year.Cavaliers fans are desperate. This city that has always been unknown in the basketball world has finally waited for a local super giant.

The result is unexpectedly unavailable!

Even if the Cavaliers can finish second, they still have the possibility of winning Ajan.

But with the Cavaliers third, Cleveland fans really felt there was no hope.

In their view, it is impossible for someone as strong as Ajan to fall to third place.

Even if Ryan is really lucky enough to become the top pick, the second team will not be able to let go of such an excellent Ajan.

Cleveland fans are extremely desperate, and it seems that they can only reluctantly get Anthony.

With the third pick, I can only choose a melon.

But what is the use of this melon?

Is the melon skin made of gold or are the melon particles made of gold?It’s of no use at all!
Logo smiled extremely. He felt that it was impossible for the league to let the Grizzlies finish second.

Because the Grizzlies taking the second place is equivalent to the Pistons taking the second place, and what Stern needs is balance, and he will never let a championship team like the Pistons get the second pick.

A rich man has already married five wives, so we can't let him marry again, right?So why don't you worry about us single brothers?

The host opened the huge envelope in his hand and revealed the winner of the second pick.

As a result, the host actually pulled out a card with the Grizzlies logo printed on it from the envelope!
The Grizzlies helped the Pistons get the second pick!A team competing for the championship actually got a high-ranking draft pick in a big draft year like 03!
The camera immediately cuts to Jerry West, the old man who was smiling brightly just now, vividly explaining what it means to have a smile that gradually disappears, and what it means to go from smiling to laughing.

I really admire the logo. If it’s not Stern, you really picked it randomly?
Don’t you like to operate this thing in the dark?Why don't you let me operate this time?
And Brother Di, you are playing with me!

If you don't want me to get the No. [-] pick, then let me give up as soon as possible.

Oh, you have to let me save my hope until the end, raise my expectations to the highest level, and then give me the whole murderous experience?
I am Nima.
This means that the logo has a strong body, otherwise it would have to be put on the stage directly.

Nuggets owner Stan Kroenke jumped up with excitement.

The 2003 golden generation won the No. [-] pick. This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for the Nuggets to turn around!
Stan Kroenke walked onto the stage with a smile and shook hands with the host.

The host also joked: "Can you reveal your draft plan?"

Kroenke tried hard to hold back the urge to laugh:

"Actually, we haven't decided who to pick yet. Maybe, we will consider giving LeBron a chance? Hahahahaha!"

Kroenke's laughter seemed to be mocking everyone present.

Now, only he has the ultimate choice!
He can go directly to the princess room, ah no, choose the best one in the little green room.

Others can only pick up his remaining choices!
Ryan looked a little nervous when he saw the Nuggets getting the No. [-] pick.

Because the Nuggets have never expressed any opinions on the talents of the 03 class from beginning to end.

Unlike the Logo Man, they booked Ryan early.

Unlike the Cavaliers and Bulls, they will definitely choose their own local players.

The Nuggets have been silent, so it's hard to say who they like more.

Ryan is naturally very confident that he is the best candidate for the No. [-] pick.

But who can say for sure when it comes to the draft?

Some teams didn't even want Jordan when they were drafting.

Some teams even selected Bennett as the No. [-] pick because of his politeness.

Never overestimate a team's draft IQ.

I don’t know what wonderful changes fate will bring.

Ryan shook his head. What happened next was beyond his control.

Right now, the only thing he can control is to continue training and continue to get stronger.

Thinking of this, Ryan opened the system interface to see how much of the upgrade experience bar was left to fill.

As soon as the system was opened, a new reward popped up directly:
“Draft reward package (not available yet).

If you are finally selected in the top three picks, you will receive corresponding rewards.

The third flower: a skill point lottery package.

Second place: Skill point lottery package + action lottery package.

Number one winner: skill point lottery package + action lottery package + talent fragment lottery package. "

Seeing this reward, Ryan almost cried.

After all, the logic of this system has always been that if you don’t work hard, there will be no reward.

You must train hard to level up and become stronger, and you will gain something if you work hard.

In the past, when I read novels, the system was to give rewards directly to you when you sign in, and rewards to you if you sleep with a woman.

But there is none on Lane's system.

It forces you to work hard.

So this is the first time that Ryan can use the system for free!
There is no need to train or sweat. As long as you are selected among the top three, you will definitely get a reward!

Ryan rubbed his hands excitedly, let the draft begin quickly!

　The conscientious old man kneels down and begs to read it!
