(There is a lot of analysis in the previous chapter that has nothing to do with the content of the novel, but it is mainly for more people to see it in the text, the point of view is just personal, and it may not be very clear, the overall meaning is that Curry Harden is more suitable for the players who can be selected in the current environment, this is a coaching book, it is impossible to lay the rhythm of the whole book at the beginning, and it is impossible for these players to mix with the protagonist for a lifetime, because there is a lot of nonsense, so prepare for today's three watches, sorry.) ）

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

The one who answered the phone was naturally head coach Wang Xiao, who had the right to decide the Wizards' trade.

When he heard the intention of the general manager of the Clippers, Wang Xiao smiled happily.

"Sir, you know, this No. 1 pick is very important for our Wizards, and Griffin, as one of the few high-quality interior players, will definitely become an All-Star caliber player......

"Tell me, at what price are you willing to give Griffin to us?"

The general manager of the Wizards team is obviously not an inexperienced rookie, if it was really that important, Wang Xiao should have hung up the phone a long time ago, instead of talking nonsense with himself on the phone.

This guy said a lot, and it was clear that he wanted to sit on the ground and raise the price.

Seeing this situation, Wang Xiao was not verbose, and directly quoted the price that he thought was ideal.

"It's not difficult to get our No. 1 pick, just take your second pick this year and your first-round pick next year."

"OMG! Dude, why don't you go and grab it? ”

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

Not to mention that this year's first-round pick Clippers are one order lower than the Wizards, even if there is really Griffin next season, with the completeness of the Clippers' lineup, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape the fate of the bottom of the league, and that first-round will be very high at that time!

The idea of the Clippers' general manager is to draft Griffin this year, and then mix in a high draft pick next year, and get a high-quality outside lineman, such as Jeremy Lin, John Lin. Wall, in that case, one inside and one outside dual core, can basically lay the way for the Clippers in the next ten years.

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

"So what do you want? Do you want to exchange this year's second pick for my top pick? Wang Xiao asked.

"I could add Al. Thornton, you can also bring some cash compensation. The Clippers general manager thought for a moment and replied.

Wang Xiao couldn't help but roll his eyes.

'07 14th pick rookie Al. Thorton's performance in the 08-09 season was not bad, averaging 16.8 points and 5.2 rebounds per game for the Clippers, but Wang Xiao knew very well that this guy was not useful at all, and after the league was mixed until the NBA was suspended for 11 years, he went to the CBA to play, and disappeared after playing for about a season and being cut by the CBA.

"Sir, I'm talking to you about this deal now, it's with great sincerity to discuss with you, if you treat me as an idiot and fool me, then you can hang up the phone now, and it's good for us to sign Griffin with the champion."

Wang Xiao's words made the general manager of the Clippers can't help but jump in his heart.

This is what he fears the most.

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

……

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. 1 pick, and they will also trade next year's first-round pick for the Clippers' first-round picks this year and next year, as well as this year's second-round pick. Jordan.

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

In his opinion, after Arenas returns, the Wizards' record will definitely rebound quickly, and even return to the Eastern Conference playoffs, and the improvement of the record will lead to a significant drop in the value of the Wizards' first-round picks, and it is likely to fall to around the 20th pick.

There is a huge gap between the 20th pick and the top 10 or even the top 5.

But in order to choose Griffin, even then he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

This year's second-round pick, in the eyes of the Clippers general manager, is just an insignificant signing, and he can only get a cheap bench player, and since the other party wants it, just give it to him.

As for the only player in the deal, DeAndrew. Jordan, who is just a rotation role player on the team, is simply insignificant compared to Griffin, and the general manager of the Clippers does not take it seriously.

Negotiated the first trade in the NBA, Wang Xiao is still very satisfied, originally he was not going to choose Griffin, the champion pick is like chicken ribs for him, and now the Clippers have run out to be the wronged leader, and they also gave themselves their first-round pick next year.

Wang Xiao was very impressed, Griffin was exactly the same as Oden in his first year in the league, and he was reimbursed for the season due to injury before the start of the season, and the Clippers were fourth from the bottom in the West, and they were happy to mention the eighth pick.

The eighth pick is not high, but it is definitely enough in the 10-year draft.

10 years is recognized as a small year for the draft, and there are not many players who have played, and the only ones that are the champion Wall, the fifth pick Cousins, the eighth pick Hayward, and the tenth pick George are just four.

Wang Xiao recognized Paul. George, if you have the chance, take Paul. George, this deal is not worth it!

After the current Jeremy Lin was cultivated by Wang Xiao with the Kidd 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 outstanding players.

It is worth mentioning that in the second round of 10 years, there was a god of nostalgia - Hassan. Whiteside, we'll have to find a way to get this guy here.

……

On June 14, the NBA Finals ended, the Lakers defeated Howard's Magic 4-1, Kobe Bryant lifted the fourth O'Brien Cup in his career, and won the FMVP trophy for the first time.

Then, after the playoffs ended and the free market opened, the Clippers and Wizards officially announced a trade.

The Clippers sent two first-round picks in '09 and '10, as well as a '09 second-round pick, in exchange for two first-round picks from the Wizards in '09 and '10, of which the Wizards' first-round pick in '09 was the first pick.

The deal surprised many, but after thinking about it, many felt that it wasn't a big deal.

It's just a swap of draft picks between the two teams.

For the Wizards, if they are not very interested in Griffin, then the difference between the top pick and the top pick this year is not very big.

Next year, the Wizards' Arenas will come back, and the record will definitely improve, and the value of the first-round pick will inevitably be inferior to the Clippers, and the Clippers will also add a second-round pick this year, and the Wizards will not lose much with the first-round pick.

However, many people still wonder why the Wizards have little interest in Griffin.

Some media called Wizards general manager Rogerfeld, who made it clear that the current team's player transactions and drafts are all in charge of head coach Wang Xiao, and ask Wang Xiao if there are any questions.

Now, things get interesting!

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

Did he think Griffin would be as useless as Auden?

Or does Wang Xiao not pay attention to big players?
