Not a starting price? What does that mean?

Everyone in the Spurs management team looked at each other, and for a moment they couldn't figure out what the Kings meant by this.

The quickest reaction was Popovich, the only one in the crowd who didn't agree to the deal after all.

His face changed slightly, and then he uttered a guess.

"Could it be that they have already been contacted by a team?"

Is Leonard worth a lot? In fact, this is not the case, the media is generally not optimistic about Leonard's development prospects, and Leonard's pre-draft template is just All-Star forward Gerrard. Wallace.

Is Wallace strong? Certainly strong, but he's by no means a top superstar.

In the predictions before the draft, Leonard is basically outside the top ten, and it is very strange that he will be selected by the Kings with the No. 6 pick.

The only thing Popovich could think of was that the Kings might have a verbal agreement with another team to help draft Leonard before completing the deal.

"Let's see, if any team has announced the transaction information, who will make the first move!"

The general manager of the Spurs said immediately.

"No need ......"

Budenholzer held his phone, his face pale.

"I just got a call, and the Kings just announced on their website that they had made a deal with the Wizards, and the Kings sent Leonard, the No. 5 pick in the second round this year and the second-round pick next year, and got James from the Wizards. Harden! ”

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

Sent James away...... Harden?

Some even wonder if there is a problem with their ears, and the Wizards traded Harden for Leonard?

No one cares about the other two second-round picks in this deal, which are simply inconsequential additions.

"Oh, that kid, he's bold enough......"

Stunned, Popovich couldn't help but laugh.

Even if it's George. Hill was unwilling to pay, but the other party did not hesitate to use Harden as a bargaining chip.

James. Although Harden is positioned as the sixth man in the Wizards, his average of 20+8 per game is not something that ordinary sixth man can do.

"Is he crazy?"

Budenholzer had a helpless look on his face.

The other party is even willing to play Harden, and the Spurs really don't have a player who can match his value, even Duncan is not enough, after all, Shi Fo is now a veteran who is nearly 35 years old.

At the same time, the news of the Wizards' trade with the Kings has caused an uproar in the outside world, and the first to be confused are the fans in Washington.

Originally, they were happily watching the draft and watching their team use the No. 5 pick that was almost prostituted for nothing to select potential rookies.

They never expected that, drinking beer and singing, suddenly the core of their team was traded!

That's Harden! Harden!

In addition to Curry, the strongest and most potential Harden in the entire Wizards team!

Did the team take the wrong medicine? Why did he give up the good seedlings he chose by himself?

The vast majority of fans couldn't help but scold at this moment, and they were extremely angry.

This mood is very understandable, I was watching my team get better day by day, and even reach the finals, but I haven't been happy for a few days!

But at the same time, there are also a lot of fans who are slightly rational.

At present, the Wizards' draft and trade rights are in the hands of Wang Xiao, and this deal must be Wang Xiao's handiwork.

Who is Wang Xiao? Since his debut, has he made a failed deal?

Think about it carefully, how did the Wizards' No. 5 pick come about this year, and when he traded Arenas, how many people were angry with Wang Xiao, but the result?

But only a minority of fans think so, and in the eyes of the vast majority of fans, trading Harden for Leonard is like buying a stone with diamonds.

Wizards fans were furious, while Kings fans were excited.

"James. Harden! We actually got James. Harden! ”

James. Harden plus DeMarcus. Cousins, the Kings finally have their future double star.

No matter how sensational the outside world is, the in-stadium draft is still going on.

In the box of the Wizards, Grunfield looked at Wang Xiao strangely and did not speak.

He's made up his mind that he's not going to talk to this guy anymore, and he's never going to say anything about any stupid deals this guy makes.

But just now he almost couldn't hold back.

It's hilarious to trade a future rising star who is only 21 years old.

Glenfield now wants to see how the outside world scolds Wang Xiao, and is very much looking forward to the next season when the Wizards can still be as chic as the previous two seasons without Harden, a strong scoring point on the bench line?

The draft continues, and the subsequent major teams continue to make their own selections.

Before you know it, you have reached the twenty picks in the first round.

"How?"

Wang Xiao turned his head to look at the assistant beside him.

He shook his head, "The other party has been refusing to let go." ”

Wang Xiao gritted his teeth, "Tell them that I agreed." ”

He's always wanted a twenty-tie pick, mostly to prevent someone from selecting Jimmy early. Butler.

Although Butler was unremarkable, in this year's draft, with Leonard, Marcus Brown. Morris and Iman. After Shampert's small forwards were drafted, there was nothing left to do with them.

Among the short guys, Butler is also likely to be drafted early, such as the Spurs, who hold the 28th pick and did not get Leonard as they wished, and the Bulls, who have two picks in the 27th and 29th picks.

But this pick is not easy to get.

Wang Xiao didn't want to get any players in, but obviously none of the teams in the league were easy to fool.

The reason why the Kings agreed to a trade with the Wizards is because Harden is a bargaining chip that is difficult to refuse, and if they are unwilling to trade players again, the only chip that the Wizards can offer is first-round picks this year and next year.

Two first-round picks for the Wizards? By whom? What's the difference between that and the second round?

How bad will the Wizards, who have won 68 this season, be next season? It's likely to be the rhythm of continuing to top the league.

In this case, all the teams the Wizards contacted began to open their mouths.

Somebody wants Danny. Green, some people want Beverley, and some people are interested in McGee and Whiteside, the two big men.

They don't know who Wang Xiao wants, but no matter who you want, you can't do it without some blood.

Seeing that the draft was going on little by little, Wang Xiao had to grit his teeth and agree.

After all, neither Green nor Beverley is worth far less than Jimmy. Butler.

Soon, a deal was announced.

The Washington Wizards made a deal with the Houston Rockets, and the Wizards sent Danny. Green and the team's second-round pick were traded from the Rockets for the No. 23 pick in the first round.
