Chapter 113 Draft Plan
"Jiang, tell me about your draft plan, we all want to know." At the executive meeting, Stewart's face was full of expectations.
Now the Grizzlies have shown extremely strong dominance, but the Grizzlies executives know very well that the Grizzlies are not strong enough yet. As long as Jiang Dongbing can select strong newcomers in this year's draft, the Grizzlies can become even stronger.
!
Xiao McCaw also came to attend this executive meeting and looked at Jiang Dongbing expectantly at this moment.
Jiang Dongbing nodded and said slowly: "Our own draft rights have been sold to Toronto in the deal between Christie and Billups."
When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed. The Raptors were really losing money to their grandma's family with this deal.
When the Grizzlies acquired Christie and Billups from the Raptors in exchange for Levis, plus this year's first- and second-round picks, looking at the deal at the time, the Grizzlies were definitely not the winner.
But now looking back at this deal, the Grizzlies are more than just a blood profit.
Billups has grown into an MVP-level super point guard, and even Christie is now the league's leading super 3D player. The most important thing is that the two draft picks given to the Grizzlies were both frighteningly low.
Because the regular season record is the best in the league, the Grizzlies' first-round picks are the 29th and 58th picks. The value of these two picks is not high.
"Jiang, the Raptors general manager called me a few days ago and said that we cheated them." Stewart said with a laugh.
The Raptors are indeed very angry now. They are really very angry with the Grizzlies. If it is just Billups and Christie who are fighting, it is not unacceptable. After all, people know how to know people. This is their fault.
ability.
But they really couldn't bear the matter of the draft picks. They had two worthless draft picks and they didn't even know what kind of players they should use them to select.
If the Grizzlies' record is still as bad as last season, then these two draft picks can definitely be said to be priceless. However, the Grizzlies have the best record in the league this season. It's strange that the Raptors are not so angry that they vomit blood.
Jiang Dongbing smiled and continued: "In Sharif's transaction, we got two first-round picks from the Trail Blazers and SuperSonics."
Everyone laughed again, this deal was also a bloody profit.
Using Raheem in exchange for O'Brien, Lewis and two first-round picks, this transaction was a real bargain.
"Jiang, to be honest, I think Stephen has been saying that you are omniscient and omnipotent, and this is definitely not false."
"How on earth do you do it? You can make huge profits on every transaction!" Xiao McCaw admired sincerely.
"It's just that I pay more attention to details. If you observe carefully, you will definitely do no worse than me." Jiang Dongbing said half-truthfully.
"The SuperSonics' pick is the 14th pick, and the Trail Blazers' pick is the 24th pick. These two picks will be our main players in the next draft."
Everyone's eyes lit up. In the last draft, Jiang Dongbing selected Jackson, Miller and Mobley. They were all outstanding moves. I wonder what kind of players Jiang Dongbing will select this time.
Needless to say, Jackson, the absolute core and leader of the team, is now the league's number one small forward!
Needless to say, Miller won the FMVP in his rookie season, which has made Miller an NBA legend. Think about a second-round pick who almost lost the draft and won the FMVP in his rookie season. What is this if not a legend?
As for Mobley, he is not very impressive now, but that is only because Jiang Dongbing has given him too few opportunities. Judging from the limited playing time, Mobley's strength is also extremely good.
After getting three such players in one draft, everyone had a hunch that Jiang Dongbing would definitely make big moves this time.
In fact, Jiang Dongbing really wanted to make a big move, but the draft rights in his hand did not allow it. With only two draft picks, there was nothing he could do if he wanted to make a big move.
The SuperSonics' 14th overall pick would be more suitable for selecting Artest, who would normally be the 15th overall pick.
As for the Trail Blazers' 24th overall pick, choosing Kirilenko is also a good choice.
But if this is done, Da Zhi and Ginobili will be gone. However, if this kind of first-round pick is used to select Da Zhi and Ginobili, Jiang Dongbing will feel very disadvantaged.
Jiang Dongbing likes Ginobili very much. He is conscientious and never complains about others. Even if he plays the substitute position, he can accept it happily. With such a sharp offensive player on the bench, any head coach will definitely feel at ease.
.
As for Dazhi, it was purely for feelings. Even Jiang Dongbing doesn't know whether Dazhi's ultimate potential is 90 points or not.
If you get Dazhi by yourself, if nothing else, you can at least lay a good foundation for Dazhi's NBA journey.
Now Jiang Dongbing wants to get Artest, Kirilenko, Ginobili and Da Zhi all, which is more difficult because he doesn't have enough draft picks.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Dongbing spoke to the executives and bosses present.
"Everyone, I have an idea here. If I say it, it may scare you."
"But this matter is imperative. Even if you think this idea is outrageous, I hope you can support me."
An ominous premonition suddenly arose in everyone's mind. Jiang Dongbing said it was so serious. Could it be that he wanted to run away?
"Jiang, tell me, no matter what your idea is, we will do our best to support you!" Stewart expressed his stance directly.
Jiang Dongbing nodded and continued: "I want to sell Brad Miller and get David Taillon from the Clippers. By the way, I'll see if I can get some second-round picks from the Clippers."
"I need at least two second-round picks, one at the top of the 35th pick, and the other doesn't matter."
Everyone gasped, what a joke, Brad Miller had just become an NBA legend, and Jiang Dongbing was about to sell him. This is crazy!
There was no look of shock on Stewart's face, because Jiang Dongbing had been frustrated before. Although he didn't quite understand why Jiang Dongbing insisted on getting David, now that Jiang Dongbing had proven his terrifying ability to select people, Stewart firmly believed
There must be something unusual about David.
"Jiang, don't worry."
"When I signed the contract, I said that the team's draft and trade rights are all handed over to you. Let alone selling Miller, even if you sell all the players on the team, that is also your right."
Boss Xiao McCaw directly supported Jiang Dongbing’s idea.
