Chapter 178 Draft Conference

But now he is only at the 28th pick in the second round, and he can't choose these two players from prestigious schools no matter what. Davidson simply doesn't care much about this second round pick. Since the Suns have asked for it, just forget it for them.

...

The two sides reached an oral trading agreement, and the deal was announced after the draft was over.

Barkley was so excited that he called Davidson that night. He was looking forward to joining the Kings. He saw from the beginning to the end of the finals of this season!

The king is definitely not as strong as the bulls, but Barkley is quite confident that as long as he joins the king, it will definitely not be difficult to kill the bulls.

At that time, if you kill the Bulls and win the championship, the value of this championship will be so high.

The Bulls are called the strongest team in NBA history. If you kill such a team and win the championship, such a championship ring will definitely be one top two!

Davidson is also looking forward to the start of next season. The Kings lineup next season has really reached a terrifying level.

Murraysan, Barkley, Bus, Richmond and Nash, no team in the league is the opponent for such a lineup.

The only thing is that the bench is still a bit weak, and it may even be weaker than this just-concluded season. Petri and himself must have to think of more ways.

After reaching a deal with the Suns, the most important thing to put in front of the Kings is Murraysan's contract extension.

According to Petrie's plan, he was preparing a four-year contract of 20 million US dollars for Murraysan, with an average of 5 million US dollars per year.

At first glance, this contract is really quite a lot. You should know that Barkley's contract is only 4.76 million US dollars.

A contract that is higher than Barkley, Petri feels that this contract is not low.

In addition to Murraysan, the Kings also announced that they had given up the team options for buses after the end of the season.

Then he signed a two-year contract with the bus. There is nothing much to say about this contract. According to the rules of the alliance, the contract can only be signed for two years.

I have to say that the Kings are really making a fortune. Players like Dabu have signed for only one million yuan in annual salary for two years. They can't find such a cheap thing even if they search the entire league.

...

1995 is a relatively special period in NBA history, and 1996 is the same.

The newly issued wage agreement has not been able to introduce the maximum salary rules for players as Stern’s plan, which means that the salaries of some players who meet the rules can be infinitely large.

This type of player definitely does not include new players like Dabu who are less than three years old.

As long as the boss is willing to give money, it is perfectly fine to offer an annual salary of 100 million US dollars to a player who meets the conditions...

It is precisely because we failed to discuss the maximum salary regulations for players, so this year's offseason signing can be described as incredible.

Jordan directly signed a contract with the Bulls with an annual salary of 30 million yuan!

Thirty million US dollars!

You should know that in the next new season, that is, the 96-97 season, the team's salary cap is only more than 24 million points...

Jordan alone’s salary is far higher than the salary cap!

Some fans may be wondering why Jordan signed such a large contract, and a person's salary exceeds the salary cap. Could it be that this salary cap is not designed?!

The salary cap is naturally not a decoration, it is mainly due to the Bird clause. The team can designate a player who meets the Bird clause, and his salary is not included in the salary cap.

In other words, Jordan's annual salary of 30 million is not included in the salary cap, which is why Jordan was able to sign such a large contract.

Jordan's crazy contract directly disrupted the market. Countless players who happened to be in the contract year were all looking at the team. Jordan could get 30 million. Although these players are not as strong as Jordan, they cannot be missed too outrageous, right?!

As a result, the Pacers' boss Reggie Miller signed a contract with the Pacers with an annual salary of US$11.25 million.

You should know that before this, the alliance rarely had an annual salary of tens of millions. Not to mention an annual salary of tens of millions, the annual salary of more than five million is very small.

Now that Jordan is disrupted like this, the free market is completely in chaos, and someone can ask for a super contract.

In this situation, Petri was in trouble...

Because of Murraysan's point, it is obviously 5 million yuan that cannot be signed.

Murraysan can be said to be one of the best blue-collar centers in the league today. His rebounding and inside defense are extremely excellent. It is obviously impossible to sign only for only 5 million US dollars.

Davidson also noticed the madness in the free market, and he was not going to get involved in Murraysan's signing.

In Davidson's opinion, the king must sign Murraysan if he does not sign, and the appropriate price must be given according to the situation. Otherwise, if Murraysan leaves, the king will have no place to cry at that time.

Now Davidson is focusing on the draft, and this time the Kings only have one draft pick, which is the 14th pick from the Suns.

On June 26, the draft began in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

A year later, Davidson returned to New Jersey, and naturally sighed.

If I had stayed in New Jersey, what would it look like now?

Anyway, there is one thing that can be confirmed that the Nets will definitely not be as miserable as they are now, almost becoming a champion-level team to a bottom team.

At the draft, Davidson also saw Willis Reed.

I haven't seen each other for a year, and Reed, who was originally full of energy, looks much more haggard.

It's normal to think about it. When the team encounters such a dilemma, he, the general manager, is naturally in a state of turmoil.

After seeing Davidson, Reed smiled bitterly at Davidson. He wanted to tell him the thing he regretted the most now was naturally that he let Davidson go.

My dad also came with Davidson this time. He has confirmed that he will step down before the start of next season. This time he came to the draft to get together with his old friends.

Seeing that my father was coming, many coaches in the venue stood up and greeted him, and also greeted Davidson.

Davidson is definitely the hottest head coach in the league now, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a promising future.

There are many young coaches in the league, but most young coaches cannot persist in their positions for three years...

Because the team cannot give these young coaches too long, and they haven't made anything in three years, so they can only get rid of the bed and get out of here.

It only took Davidson a year to manage the Kings to look like this. What is certain is that Davidson's head coach position is extremely stable.

Dad and Davidson also greeted each other warmly.

Of course, not everyone is welcoming Daddy and Davidson, such as Larry Brown and Pat Riley...
