The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

An annual salary of 15 million, what kind of concept is this?

In the NBA in 2014, the coach with the highest annual salary was Clippers coach Doc Rivers, whose annual salary was $7 million, followed by Spurs coach Gregg Popovich’s annual salary of $6.5 million .

Wang Xiao renewed his contract with the Wizards a year ago. Due to his excellent record and the blessing of winning the championship, the annual salary of the renewed contract is 6 million US dollars, ranking third among coaches.

However, Wang Xiao had no intention of signing a long-term contract at that time, and the Wizards seemed unwilling to give a contract that was too long, so the new contract was only for 2 years, that is, this summer.

This is one of the reasons why Wesley can move his mind.

Although 15 million is nothing among players, it is a unique super high salary in the history of NBA coaches.

When he heard Wesley's annual salary of 15 million, to be honest, Wang Xiao couldn't help but jump in his heart.

Local tyrants are still awesome!

Even if he is not very persistent in the pursuit of money, the annual salary of 15 million US dollars is still attractive, after all, that is hundreds of millions of RMB a year!

After a moment of silence, Wang Xiao laughed.

"Mr. Wesley, the conditions you have given are very generous, but now is not a good time to discuss this issue. My team is still working hard for a place in the finals. Before leading the team to defend the title, I don't want to let anyone Things are interfering with my concentration."

Although Wang Xiao didn't directly reject it, his words also showed the general meaning.

Wesley had a look of disappointment on his face, while Mallory stared at Wang Xiao with a little annoyance on his face.

In Malorie's view, it would be a great thing if Wang Xiao could also come to the Bucks, but Wang Xiao actually rejected his father's invitation.

This made her feel very disappointed. She thought that because of her relationship with Wang Xiao, the other party would immediately agree.

"Of course, after the finals are over, I will seriously consider this issue." Seeing Mallory's expression, Wang Xiao quickly said: "Congratulations again for getting the No. What do you think of the No. 1 pick in this year's NBA draft?"

As the head coach of another team, asking this sentence was a very unreasonable thing, and it was suspected of prying into the secrets of other teams.

But when Wang Xiao asked this question, Wesley was overjoyed.

Wang Xiao's vision is famous in the league as vicious, and the players selected by him are rarely worthless.

He invited Wang Xiao to dinner. On the one hand, he wanted to poach people, and on the other hand, he also had such thoughts.

"Currently, we have initially taken a fancy to Andrew Wiggins, a small forward from the University of Kansas. I don't know what you think of him, Wang."

Andrew Wiggins is obviously the safest choice. As the most prestigious rookie in 2014, as the No. 1 high school student in the United States last year, Andrew Wiggins averaged 17 points and 5.9 rebounds in his first season in the NCAA. Data, created the scoring record of a freshman at the University of Kansas, and was also selected as the best rookie of the year in the 12th league, and was successfully selected to the first team of the 12th league.

Looking at the entire NCAA, apart from the three Huaxia people at Harvard who are so strong that their lives are doubtful, there are only a few people whose strength and prestige can be compared with Wiggins.

"Wiggins is indeed a good choice."

Wang Xiao nodded.

In another time and space, Wiggins was selected by the Cavaliers and then traded to the Timberwolves as a bargaining chip for Kevin Love. In the Timberwolves, Wiggins quickly grew into an excellent scorer with 20+ points, but the Timberwolves But they are still at the bottom of the season year after year, even if Downs is selected as the No. 1 pick, it is still the case. It was not until they got Jimmy Butler that they finally broke the nightmare and returned to the playoffs.

And unable to last even one season, Jimmy Butler couldn't bear the loose and bad atmosphere in the Timberwolves locker room. He was angry and said something very classic-"I'm not the most talented person on the team. Who The most talented player? Towns. Who is God's favorite player? Wiggins. Who is the hardest player? Me!!"

It is precisely because of this that Wiggins' upper limit is limited. Even if he is a scorer with a stable contribution of 20+ per game, he is not a player worthy of deliberate pursuit.

"However, I think since the Bucks have Kenyani Antetokounmpo on the front line, there is no need to choose another striker."

Wang Xiao said lightly: "Kenyani's talent is very outstanding. He is fully capable of working on the front line, and he can even do it very, very well."

"King, what do you mean?"

Wesley couldn't help but move.

He didn't doubt Wang Xiao's purpose. The Bucks had absolutely no chance of competing with the Wizards, and the Wizards didn't have any early-round draft picks this season. The layer relationship is there, and the possibility is not high.

"I think Joel Embiid is pretty good."

Wang Xiao said.

"Joel Embiid?"

As one of the limited big men in this session, Embiid has indeed attracted the attention of many people, and his draft pick prediction has always been within the top five, and he may even become the No. 1 pick.

But since Embiid is on the same team as Wiggins, most of the light is still overshadowed by Wiggins.

"Is a big man with a technical style like Embiid really okay?"

Embiid is not a traditional center, he has comprehensive skills, can be inside and outside, but because of this, many scouts are not particularly optimistic about Embiid, after all, the current league is still imprinted with the shadow of the traditional center of the past.

In their view, a tall, strong center who is proficient in interior offense is king. Although a center like Embiid has a good level of interior offense, many people still have reservations about whether they can adapt to the intense physical confrontation in the NBA.

Although Wesley also watches the NBA and knows a little bit about football, his professionalism is still much lower than that of scouts, so he is very convinced by the report of the Bucks scouts.

But in the entire league, is there a scout whose vision can match Wang Xiao's?

"In that case, I will seriously consider your opinion!"

Wesley said with a smile.

He didn't say that he would definitely choose Embiid, because as a successful businessman, he is used to not saying things completely, and there will always be some room for maneuver.

"In addition, in addition to Embiid, I suggest that you use the second-round pick to select another player."

"Nikola Jokic."

Nikola Jokic?

Hearing this name, Wesley was inevitably stunned.

He had never heard the name.

"That's right, he is a professional basketball player from Serbia who plays as a center forward."

Wang Xiao said with a smile.

Wesley couldn't help being taken aback again.

Center? Isn't Embiid a center? Why two centers?
