The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Even if the Blazers are not happy about this matter, they have to be happy. Durant has made it clear that he will not renew his contract with the Blazers next season. Rand played the final warm-up in the team - as much as possible as a bargaining chip to trade some high-quality potential players.

Ever since, after some discussion, the Blazers gave the Bucks an offer.

And this offer Wang Xiao didn't even think about rejecting it directly after seeing it.

The opponent actually wants to use Durant to package and trade Antetokounmpo and Victor Oladipo.

Brother Antetokounmpo is now the ace of the Bucks, and his future growth potential is not inferior to Durant. This is not for sale, but how can Wang Xiao rely on his thigh for the next few years to trade?

But Wang Xiao is not angry, business is just a process of bargaining, if you really can't reach an agreement, at worst, wait until next summer.

So Wang Xiao unhurriedly met a Middleton plus two first-round double-teams.

The general manager of the Blazers almost laughed angrily when he saw the offer.

Wang Xiao is obviously a counterattack to the last offer from the Blazers.

Although Middleton started in the Bucks and performed well, he is just an ordinary player to put it bluntly, and the two first rounds of the Bucks are worthless. After all, the Bucks are now at the top of the league record !

Using such leftovers to exchange Durant is simply a dream!

Later, the Blazers bargained again. This time they did not mention Antetokounmpo, but wanted Oladipo and Embiid.

Although Embiid has been reimbursed for two consecutive seasons due to injuries and has not made his season debut so far, his reputation in the league has not been affected much.

As an inside player, Embiid's talent and ability have been praised by the media more than once.

What's even more intriguing is that even though Embiid was reimbursed for two consecutive seasons, Wang Xiao still kept Embiid in the team steadily, without any thoughts of giving up or trading.

What does Wang Xiao do? In so many years in the league, has there ever been a case of misjudgment?

The Blazers were the first beneficiaries of Wang Xiao's superb vision, and it was naturally not like giving up the opportunity to pluck wool at this time.

Of course, it is impossible for Wang Xiao to agree to this offer.

Although with Durant, Embiid is not a necessary core player for the Bucks, but after all, this is a future All-Star player and one of the few all-round high-quality insiders in the league. This season, it would be too bad to trade it out once it is useless.

...

As the saying goes, paper can't hold fire, when the two sides are arguing endlessly over the issue of trading chips.

The news that Durant wants to leave the Trail Blazers has finally been exposed.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a shock in the alliance.

Durant is one of the top three top players in the league, a superstar who has led the Blazers to the finals many times!

When it was learned that the great god was leaving the team, almost all the teams in the league were moved, and flocked to use all available resources to inquire about news and offer offers to the Blazers.

When Wang Xiao heard the news, the first thing he thought of was that the news was definitely spread by the Blazers. They obviously wanted to use this method to put pressure on themselves, and at the same time, they wanted to see if there were any other players. The team will give better chips.

But Wang Xiao is not in a hurry, this matter is not something that other teams can intervene if they want to.

The reason is simple. What Durant wants to join is a team with the strength to win the championship.

If a team pays too many chips in order to get Durant, it will naturally lose the competitiveness of winning the championship. For Durant, it is to jump from one puddle to another. How could Te choose to renew his contract?

Besides, Durant also hopes to play together with Wang Xiao. These are advantages that other teams do not have.

Sure enough, when this news was exposed, Durant's agent soon issued a statement, saying that Durant only wanted to join a team that could compete for the championship, and his goal was only to win the championship. The team does not have the ability to win the championship, and he will not consider the issue of contract renewal in the summer.

After the announcement of this statement, a large number of teams were immediately dissuaded, but there are still a small number of teams that persevere, including the Clippers, Spurs, Nets, Mavericks and other teams.

But after inquiring about the offers of these teams, even the Blazers management team was disappointed.

The chips that these teams can give are even worse than the Bucks.

The Clippers can only provide a few role players plus a few first-round picks.

The Spurs offered Bosh plus two first-round picks.

As for the Nets and Mavericks, the offers made even disappointed the Blazers.

The Nets said that apart from Jeremy Lin, other players on the team can be picked by the Blazers at will, but the only valuable player for the Nets is Brook Lopez.

The Mavericks mean the same thing, but there are basically no worthy players in the team. It is hard to understand why they think they have the strength to win the championship.

After repeated comparisons, the offer from the Bucks is actually the most attractive.

After several hagglings, the Bucks' offer has turned into Oladipo plus Middleton, plus first-round picks for the next two years.

Both Oladipo and Middleton are young and talented players, and there is still a lot of potential to be tapped in the future, especially Oladipo. These days, it just so happens that the Bucks organized a team to give him statistics to make him an All-Star. This made his data soar. At this time, he has averaged 18.4 points and 4.3 assists per game.

Finally, the Blazers management began to feel excited.

...

On Wang Xiao's side, he also had his own ideas for giving this offer.

First of all, one thing is certain. If Durant comes to the Bucks, he will inevitably occupy a lot of possessions and shots. With the Bucks' current distribution of possessions, Oladipo and Middleton must be directly impacted. At that time, Middleton may have to go to the bench, and Oladipo's data will shrink again and again.

Both Oladipo and Middleton belong to the growth and rising period, and it is impossible to accept as a substitute.

This is completely different from when Wang Yue was in the Wizards. At that time, Harden, George, Leonard and others who were substitutes under Wang Xiao were all rookies who had just entered the league. Much easier than returning a player who is used to starting to the bench.

Middleton and Oladipo are both players who have served as starters for at least two seasons, and both have stable data support. In another year, both of them will usher in a contract year, and everyone wants to sign a big contract , At this juncture, Wang Xiao was sent to the bench, and he would definitely submit a trade application.

Therefore, it is inevitable for these two people to be traded, and the difference may be what the return is.
