When Davidson and Daddy sat down, the whole draft venue was lively.

The room was full of league executives, and their biggest concern right now was the chaotic free market this season.

Speaking of confusion, the main reason is that the price of free agents is simply too high, which is a headache for these management.

If there is any mistake, such as a significant decline in the player's state or a serious injury after signing the contract, then these managers will definitely not be able to walk around.

Daddy is now fine, chatting with the elder Nelson next to him, and Davidson is also discussing the current situation in the league with a few coaches who are familiar with him.

The Suns' trade with the Kings is not a secret in the small circle, and Rockets head coach Tomjanovic looked at Davidson with a puzzled expression.

Their Rockets were actually playing with Barkley's idea, and after being eliminated in the playoffs, they immediately contacted the Suns.

Unexpectedly, the Suns ultimately chose the King.

Speaking of which, the Rockets don't have any strong chips in the team now, and trading Drexler before has almost hollowed out the entire foundation of the Rockets.

The chips that the Rockets can come up with are forward Robert Horry plus rookie point guard Sam Cassel, a power forward and a point guard, although the strength of these two is good, but at least in the current situation, there is not much difference from Grant and Snow.

The main reason is that Barkley himself tends to join the Kings, and the Suns are naturally willing to make a smooth sail and meet Barkley's requirements as much as possible.

Later, after the Kings were willing to take out Walt as a trading chip, it strengthened the Suns' determination to trade, and the chips given by the Kings were much more attractive than the Rockets.

Davidson also noticed Tang Shuai's expression, and Barkley had told Davidson before that the Rockets intended to invite him to Houston to play.

"Wilson, after getting Barkley, you have completely risen." Tang Shuai said with a wry smile.

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future, and it may not be possible to really achieve the desired results." Davidson waved his hand and said modestly.

Barkley's arrival has mixed pros and cons, and it may not really guarantee that the Kings will win the championship, and Davidson really values Nash's bonus to the team's combat power.

A bus will make a qualitative change in the king, and with the words of Nash, the king's combat power will become extremely terrifying.

……

The most talked about in the whole venue was Jordan's $30 million contract, which was really terrifying.

It is no exaggeration to say that the salaries of half of the head coaches in the league together are not as much as Jordan's earnings this year, which is really eye-catching.

When it comes to coaching salaries, Davidson's previous coaching contract with the Kings was only signed for one year, which Davidson took the initiative to request.

He knew very well that the king's performance would definitely soar under his leadership, and his worth would be more than $1.2 million.

If you sign it, it is more cost-effective to sign it for a year, and you can increase the price this year.

The Kings didn't think about it that much before, Davidson wanted to sign for a year, and they couldn't ask for it, so they simply signed a one-year contract with Davidson.

Now that the season is over, Davidson naturally has to start negotiating a new contract.

Davidson's preferred contract is an annual salary of three million, which is definitely the top in the league, but it is definitely not the highest.

Hawks head coach Wilkens earns as much as $5 million a year, but he wears two hats, not only as the head coach of the Hawks, but also as the general manager of the Hawks.

Davidson's current $3 million has reached the level of Pat Riley and others.

Petri didn't give permission either, he must have to negotiate with the boss for such a big contract.

However, if nothing else, the Kings boss is unlikely to refuse this offer, and the next season is the time for the Kings to win the championship, and no owner wants the team to change at this point in time, even if it costs a little more, they will definitely be happy.

……

In the midst of everyone's small talk, the draft meeting officially began.

Stern took the stage and announced the candidates for the top show.

"I am announcing that the Philadelphia 76ers selected Allen Iverson from Georgetown University with the first pick in the first round."

This No. 1 pick still caused some sensation at the scene, mainly because very few teams in NBA history have selected guard players with No. 1 picks.

Especially a short defender like Iverson......

Before the game, many people predicted that the 76ers might choose Camby or Raheem as the top pick, after all, they already have a high-pick guard on their team, that is, last season's scout Jerry Starkhouse.

Stackhouse's average of 19.2 points per game in his rookie season is still quite dazzling, except for the somewhat low offensive efficiency, he is definitely a relatively outstanding presence among the rookies of the class of 95.

In this case, the 76ers, who have the top pick, would actually choose a big man like Camby or Rahim, which would be a better choice.

After all, the combination of inside and outside, work is not tired, this is the consensus of most teams in the league.

Now that the 76ers have Starkerhouse, they have chosen Iverson, who is shorter than Starkhouse, and many teams are laughing in their hearts, feeling that the 76ers' operation is really a bit nonsensical.

Of course, they also know that Iverson's performance in college, if he was selected as the champion, there is nothing wrong with it, mainly because the 76ers were not suitable.

Davidson was amused, and he was quite aware of the NBA's draft history.

Since the establishment of the NBA, there has only been one top guard in the history of the draft, if not tonight.

That is, the top defender Doug Collins in 1973.

It's just that Collins is 198 cm tall, and in that era he was actually more like a small forward, no matter how bad he was, he was a swingman, and he couldn't be regarded as a pure guard.

It is worth mentioning that this Collins was also selected by the Philadelphia 76ers......

Collins must have retired a long time ago, but he still stays in the circle, and his current position is the head coach of the Detroit Pistons.

Seeing that his old club chose a defender, Collins couldn't help but smile on his face, as if he had returned to the 1973 draft scene and recreated the scene where he was selected as the top pick.

With the 76ers choosing another guard champion, it is equivalent to saying that there are two guard champions in NBA history, and the results were all selected by the Philadelphia 76ers.

Davidson is not very optimistic about the 76ers' choice, if he is allowed to choose, considering that there is a Muba combination in the team, he may not choose Camby and Rahim, but he will definitely not choose Iverson.

may be more inclined to choose Marbury or Ray Allen, for no other reason, these two are taller, and in terms of strength, there is no absolute disadvantage over Iverson.

Davidson is a club buyer, but he is not so magical as to predict the future of every player.

Because of the small potato, he has a big shadow on the short players.

If nothing else, at least the defensive side is too much of a headache.

Don't dare to say anything else, at least on the defensive end, Davidson is sure that Iverson will definitely not be much better.
