The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 63 Poor version of

The Wizards core core Arenas was suddenly traded quietly? What are you kidding?

On any given day, individuals can't figure out what's going on, especially Wizards fans.

When they saw that the Wizards actually chose James Harden, many people felt something was wrong, because the Wizards did not lack backcourt firepower. The backcourt combination of Arenas and Butler was strong enough, and Jamison Although he is an inside player, his style of play is also biased towards the outside.

But before they had time to complain about the Wizards' choice, they received the news that the Wizards traded Arenas!

Actually used Curry + Miller + Gomez, plus an 11-year first round to replace Arenas?

That Chinese man is crazy, right?

That's Arenas! Three-time All-Star!

While angry Wizards fans lash out at the Wizards online, the NBA draft continues.

The first round of the draft is over soon, followed by the second round of the draft.

Wang Xiao still has two second-round picks in his hands, both of which are relatively high picks. He didn't hesitate, and directly selected Beverly and Green.

In this way, the four people that Wang Xiao was fancying before, Curry, Harden, Beverly, and Green, are all in place.

In addition, he also has the first round of the Clippers next year, the first round of the Timberwolves' 11th year and the first round of the Wizards' 11th year in his hands. There is quite a lot of room for manipulation!

When Wang Xiao was complacent, he didn't know that the outside world was already noisy.

Fans of the Wizards couldn't accept it at all. Arenas was about to return from injury, but he was sold by the Wizards in the draft!

Not to mention the Wizards fans, even Arenas himself was stunned.

When the draft was in progress, he was on vacation in Las Vegas, and he watched the entire NBA draft live on TV.

When he found out that he was actually traded to the Timberwolves by the Wizards, Arenas was shocked.

What's happening here? He was actually traded by the team without knowing it?

Arenas knew that when Wang Xiao took over the Wizards, he got the right to trade from Grunfeld.

But in the press conference before, Wang Xiao was full of praise for him, as if he was licking a dog.

Arenas thought that he would still enjoy the privileged treatment under the system of the coach from China.

But he didn't expect that he would be quietly traded in just a few days?

While he was still in a daze, the manager's phone rang in a hurry.

"Gilbert, what's going on? Why were you suddenly traded?"

"I still want to ask! What is that damn Chinese man doing? This lunatic!"

No matter from whose point of view, the Wizards have suffered a lot in this transaction.

Arenas is a star who has already played his worth. He is currently in his golden peak period, and the maintenance is good. There is no problem in the league playing for another 10 years.

Such an all-star, what kind of rubbish did he get in exchange?

Stephen Curry? The scoring ability is quite good, but that is in the NCAA, and in the NBA where the defensive strength is far superior to the NCAA, can his thin body make shots as usual under high-pressure defense? No one can guarantee.

Mike Miller? A fairly good role player. He won the best sixth man award in 2006, but his state declined rapidly after he got a big contract. Last season, he averaged 9.9 points, 6 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game in the Timberwolves. Although he is still qualified as a substitute , but it is not worth a large contract worth nearly ten million.

The other Gomez is similar, just to fill the salary gap with Arenas.

Even with an 11-year first-round pick, this deal is not worth it at all.

Many Wizards fans have even begun to question whether Wang Xiao is a spy sent by the Timberwolves to deliberately bring down the Wizards.

Little did they know, Wang Xiao was also very helpless.

Of course he knew that the deal was a loss, and the value of Arenas should be able to exchange for more things.

But he can’t do anything about it. It’s imperative to trade Arenas, because next year he will be suspended for doing something wrong, and it will be difficult to sell him at that time. It is estimated that the Magic will trade with Lewis, who is also a garbage contract. up.

After comparing several companies, Wang Xiao felt that the price offered by the Timberwolves was the best, and Curry was his necessary player. Although Mike Miller has lost his glory of averaging 18.5 points per game on the bench in 2006, he can be used as a player. The bench players still have good firepower.

The value of the first round in 2011 is also quite high. With Arenas' urgency, it is estimated that a lot of things will happen in the Timberwolves. How much stronger.

A high draft pick was invaluable in 2011, because that year there were Klay Thompson, Kawhi Leonard, and Jimmy Butler who were not very high picks!

As for Gomez, he may be the only useless player in this deal, but there is no way, in order to match Arenas' contract salary, although Wang Xiao is unwilling to want this player, he can only grit his teeth and eat it.

Fortunately, Gomez's contract expires in 10 years, and he can be dumped as soon as the next season is over.

The two transactions in the draft meeting have directly put together the lineup Wang Xiao wanted.

Point guard Stephen Curry, shooting guard James Harden, small forward Caron Butler, power forward Antawn Jamison, center Brandon Haywood.

This lineup...

Wang Xiao couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

"What a big colander!"

Both Curry and Harden are weak defensively. Although Butler's defensive attitude is positive, he is also recognized as a player with strong offense and weak defense. Not to mention Jamison, whose thin body can hardly handle any insiders. attack.

In the entire starting lineup, the only player with strong defense is Haywood.

This lineup is very similar to the small ball lineup of the future Warriors. When Haywood is replaced and players like Miller or Danny Green play, it can be called the "Death Five" lineup!

Of course, this lineup does not have Green, who is strong defensively, has a wide vision and can participate in offense, and does not have Iguodala, who is also known for defense and is good at fast breaks under lateral steals.

The so-called "death five" are likely to die on their own side.

Because the defense is too bad!

It can only be said that this is the poor version of the degraded "Five Dead".

Wang Xiao can also realize that the defense of this lineup is too poor. Whether it is Curry, Harden or even the third and fourth positions, they are all singled out.

He can fully imagine what kind of pressure the center forward who defends inside will be under when the four positions are always missing.

Fortunately, Wang Xiao was prepared for this.
