After Zhang Xiaotian's attitude was clear, Eddie's negotiations were very fast, and Zhang Xiaotian also met with various teams.

In fact, everyone is willing to determine the selection faster, it is not good for both sides to drag it out, the team needs to identify the main players to plan the new season, the team also needs to prepare, and the further you go, the fewer players will be selected.

Both the Celtics and the Raptors do not accept short-term contracts, and the maximum salary can be discussed, relatively speaking, the Celtics are more confident as an old giant, and the team development plan is more attractive than the Raptors.

The knight can accept both long and short contracts, which is the lowest price given.

The attitude of the Warriors is the opposite, although they are willing to sign long-term contracts, but they can pay a higher price for short-term contracts, which means they tend to be more short-term contracts.

To put it bluntly, the Warriors just want to bet on the championship, but they don't want to bet on Zhang Xiaotian, who can't win the championship, so everyone will break up.

Zhang Xiaotian is no longer the previous two seasons, James can change the strength of a team, then he can change the strength of a strong team.

Four teams, as long as he joins, there will definitely be a drama in the championship competition, but these are not the teams he wants to wait for the most long, which is why he is entangled.

Zhang Xiaotian asked Eddie to spend more time on the Warriors' side, the Warriors and Cavaliers are still a notch better than the other two teams, and the other is that short-term contracts can give everyone a faster chance to choose again, since everyone is not the other party's favorite object.

The Warriors offered a two-year contract of 30 million, and after Eddie's repeated communication, it was raised to 32 million for two years, which is only more than 2 million US dollars short of the maximum salary for Zhang Xiaotian, who has no bird rights to go to any team.

There are two reasons for not directly capping the salary, signing Zhang Xiaotian Warriors have to pay luxury tax, paying a little less is a little, and the other is the team's attitude, if you give the top salary, I am afraid that their core Splash Brothers will be dissatisfied.

The Warriors didn't sign Zhang Xiaotian to make him the first core, but the Big Three model, or add Draymond Green, the young Big Four.

However, the Warriors will not give Zhang Xiaotian a player option, and the bottom line for them to add money to a short contract is the team option.

After careful consideration, Zhang Xiaotian made a choice.

Soon after, the Warriors officially released the news that Zhang Xiaotian joined the Warriors on a two-year contract.

Returning to the West again, such an annual salary is enough for him to give up the player option.

After the signing was made, he went back to rest across the ocean for a while, and only returned to the United States when the Warriors' training camp was about to begin.

In order to sign him, the Warriors cleared David Lee's contract, and several other major rotation players were retained, and the addition could only be base salary players.

Zhang Xiaotian's defensive ability and three-point means are not a big problem to integrate into the Warriors technically, but it is estimated that it will take a while to adapt to the adjustment of the style of play.

But it doesn't need to be completely changed, and his singles ability is also what the team needs.

Zhang Xiaotian is now considered to have become famous, and he was welcomed by his teammates when he first trained.

However, the attitude of the Warriors players towards his arrival is different.

Coach Kerr is a very sane man who seems a little more aloof than Popovich.

Curry is a more arrogant player at a glance from the rumors in the circle, but as the boss of the team, he doesn't talk as much as James, and he is not difficult to get along with.

It's Klay Thompson who has a straight face all day long, but is actually a better talker.

Iguodala also seems serious, but sometimes he jokes, but unlike his other black brothers, he is not the enthusiastic type, and his jokes are a bit deliberate.

Draymond Green is as familiar as he thinks, and with this kind of person on the team, it will still be relatively easy for new players to fit in.

Zhang Xiaotian came over, and the most depressed may be Barnes, the Warriors want to take Zhang Xiaotian, and it is Barnes's performance in the third position that makes the team dissatisfied.

Zhang Xiaotian joined, and Barnes will definitely return to the bench.

He must be hostile to Zhang Xiaotian, but this guy is more shy, even if he is unhappy, he will not come up and ask for a heads-up like Vites.

Overall, most of the Warriors' players have different personalities from the mainstream of the league, but these people get together and the training atmosphere is surprisingly good.

Before the start of the preseason, Kerr had a chat with Zhang Xiaotian alone.

He said his request to Zhang Xiaotian very seriously, and said that there was no humanity on the basketball court, but when the conversation was about to end, he expressed his willingness to make friends with Zhang Xiaotian, and encouraged Zhang Xiaotian to make friends with other teammates.

"The league is commercial basketball, win-loss basketball, we don't need to resist, but sometimes it can be happy basketball, the game, tactics and life, we need to be very clear, sir, happy cooperation."

In training, Zhang Xiaotian's performance can only be said to be average, but his three-point shot was still affirmed.

It's not a matter of strength, his basic strength is not bad now.

It's not that simple to adapt to the Warriors' system, which is completely different from the previous two years, and it's actually different from the Spurs' style of play.

Moreover, he needs to appropriately retain some personal style while adapting to the overall offense and defense, which is still relatively difficult to grasp.

Even with the Spurs, he's the endpoint, and the Warriors need him to develop a passing sense.

The preseason is a great opportunity to adapt, and the Warriors' first preseason opponent is the Raptors.

The playoffs were so miserable, the Raptors still strengthened their forward line in the summer, and they finally chose Carroll, who performed well in the playoffs, and the price was not much cheaper than Zhang Xiaotian.

The Raptors do have a lot of players who don't want to go, and they have the feeling that they can't use the dollars in their hands.

During the game, the Raptors gave Carroll a lot of opportunities, hoping to prove that the money was not spent in vain.

The warriors were different, and did not arrange additional performances for Zhang Xiaotian.

did not play in the fourth quarter and did not show his singles skills, but Zhang Xiaotian's performance was still qualified, very stable, and he scored 10 points with few shots, but he was still close to the requirements of the Warriors.

After all, the salary given by the Warriors, he and Klay Thompson are in the first gear.

However, the Warriors also understand that Zhang Xiaotian's greatest value is stability at critical moments, and they do not doubt Zhang Xiaotian's strength, and the preseason is mainly based on marginal players.

Zhang Xiaotian's real run-in with the team was still in the regular season.

After clarifying the attitude of the team, Zhang Xiaotian did not force it, and it cannot be said that he does not pay attention to it if he does not deliberately arrange opportunities, and it is one thing to believe that he does not need advice.

In that case, it will be nice to see how well the season begins.

These days, the key is to carefully understand the Warriors' style of play in training, and as a new player at the level of 10 million, he can't be compared to others.
