The strongest bishop in the NBA

Chapter 61 Trading

(The last chapter had a lot of analysis that had nothing to do with the content of the novel, but it was mainly for more people to see it in the main text. The point of view is only personal, and it may not be clearly expressed. The overall meaning is that under the current environment Among the players that can be selected, Curry Harden is more suitable. This is a coaching book. It is impossible to establish the rhythm of the whole book at the beginning. It is impossible for these players to mix with the protagonist for a lifetime. Because there is a lot of nonsense, I am going to prepare for the third update today ,Excuse me.)

The general manager of the Clippers was baffled by Grunfeld, but he still called the number he gave.

The person who answered the phone was naturally the head coach Wang Xiao who had the power to decide the trade of the Wizards.

After hearing the intention of the general manager of the Clippers, Wang Xiao smiled happily.

"Sir, you have to know that this No. [-] pick is very important to our Wizards team. As a rare high-quality insider, Griffin will definitely become an All-Star player..."

"Tell me, what price will you be willing to give us Griffin?"

The general manager of the Wizards is obviously not an inexperienced rookie. If it is really that important, Wang Xiao should have hung up the phone by now instead of talking nonsense to himself on the phone.

This guy talked a lot, and he clearly wanted to sit on the ground and raise the price.

Seeing this situation, Wang Xiao didn't hesitate anymore, and directly quoted what he thought was an ideal price.

"It's not difficult to get our No. [-] pick. Just exchange your second pick for this year with your first-round pick for next year."

"My God! Why don't you grab it, man?"

The general manager of the Clippers is going crazy, this guy really dares to sit on the ground and raise the price, dare to exchange two first rounds with himself with one first round?

Not to mention that this year's first-round pick, the Clippers, is one pick lower than the Wizards. Even if Griffin is included next season, with the Clippers' complete lineup, they may not be able to escape the fate of being at the bottom of the league. It will be very advanced!

The idea of ​​the general manager of the Clippers is to select Griffin this year, and then mix a high-ranking pick next year, and then get a high-quality outside line, such as Jeremy Lin and John Wall. In that case, one inside and one outside double The core can basically lay the groundwork for the Clippers in the next ten years.

Now Wang Xiao opened his mouth and asked him for the first round pick next year, how could he agree.

"Then what do you want? Do you want to trade this year's No. [-] pick for my No. [-] pick?" Wang Xiao asked.

"I can add Al Thornton and some cash compensation." The Clippers general manager thought for a while and replied.

Wang Xiao couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

Al Thornton, the 07th overall pick in 14, performed pretty well in the 08-09 season, averaging 16.8 points and 5.2 rebounds per game for the Clippers, but Wang Xiao knew very well that this guy was useless at all. After the NBA was shut down in 11 years in the league, he ran to the CBA to play, played for about a season and disappeared after being cut by the CBA.

"Sir, I am talking about this deal with you now, and I am discussing it with you with great sincerity. If you fool me as an idiot, you can hang up now. We signed Griffin with the No. [-] pick. not bad."

Wang Xiao's words made the general manager of the Clippers jump in his heart.

This is what he fears the most.

Although very unwilling, in this deal, the Clippers are the passive side.

……

After more than ten minutes of bargaining, Wang Xiao finally reached an agreement with the general manager of the Clippers.

The Wizards can send this year's No. [-] pick, and at the same time they will take out next year's first-round pick in exchange for the Clippers' first-round picks for this year and next year, as well as this year's second-round pick, plus DeAndre Jordan.

This is already the maximum concession the Clippers general manager can bear.

In his opinion, after Arenas comes back, the Wizards' record will definitely recover quickly, and even return to the Eastern Conference playoffs. Around tenth.

There is an extremely huge gap between the [-]th pick and the top ten or even the top five picks.

But in order to get Griffin, even so, he can only knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach.

In the eyes of the general manager of the Clippers, this year's second-round pick is just an insignificant pick that can only get a cheap bench player. Since the opponent wants it, just give it to him.

As for the only player in this deal, DeAndre Jordan, is just a rotation role player in the team. Compared with Griffin, he is insignificant at all, and the general manager of the Clippers did not take it seriously.

Wang Xiao was very satisfied with the negotiation of his first trade in the NBA. Originally, he did not intend to choose Griffin. The No. [-] pick was like a tasteless pick to him. Now the Clippers ran out to take advantage of it and gave it to himself. Their first-round pick for next year.

Wang Xiao was very impressed. Griffin was exactly the same as Oden in his first year in the league. He was reimbursed for the season due to injury before the game started.

Although the eighth pick is not high, it is definitely enough in the 10 draft.

10 is recognized as a small year in the draft. There are not many players who have played well. There are only a handful of No. [-] picks Wall, [-]th pick Cousins, [-]th pick Hayward, and [-]th pick. There are only four of George.

Wang Xiao has identified Paul George. As long as there is a chance, if he wins Paul George, this deal will be bloody money!

After the current Jeremy Lin was trained by Wang Xiao with Kidd's growth template card, he can be properly counted among these people.

As for Monroe, Bledsoe, and Bradley, in Wang Xiao's opinion, they are not considered outstanding players.

It is worth mentioning that there is Huai Shen in the second round of 10-Hassan Whiteside, and we have to find a way to get this guy at that time.

……

On June 6, the NBA Finals ended. The Lakers beat Howard's Magic 14:4. Kobe won the fourth O'Brien Cup in his career and the FMVP trophy for the first time.

Immediately afterwards, after the playoffs ended and the free market opened, the Clippers and Wizards officially announced a deal.

快船队送出09年和10年的两个首轮选秀权，另外还有一个09年次轮选秀权，从奇才队换来了09年10年的两个首轮，其中奇才09年的首轮是状元签。

This transaction surprised many people, but after careful consideration, many people thought it was no big deal.

It's just that the two teams exchange picks.

For the Wizards, if they are not very interested in Griffin, then there is not much difference between the No. [-] pick and the No. [-] pick this year.

Arenas will come back next year for the Wizards, and his record will definitely improve. The value of the first-round pick will definitely not be as good as the Clippers. In addition, the Clippers also added a second-round pick this year.

However, many people are still wondering why the Wizards have no interest in Griffin?

Some media called Wizards general manager Roger Field, who made it clear that head coach Wang Xiao is currently responsible for the team's player transactions and drafts. Ask Wang Xiao if you have any questions.

Now, things get interesting!

People haven't forgotten what Wang Xiao did in the draft two years ago.

Does he think Griffin will be as useless as Oden?

Or does it mean that Wang Xiao doesn't pay much attention to big players?
