The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 51 Turning point

The reason why Harvard can be so strong in the new season that shocked the entire NCAA is that Jeremy Lin, Prine and Dunn jointly formed the Iron Lock Hengjiang, although there is a lot of credit.

But in fact, it was Wang Xiao's system that played the real decisive factor.

Since the school started and the school team resumed training, Wang Xiao's training module has been used continuously until all the victory points are used up.

And in the past six months, apart from an S-level growth template card, Wang Xiao has also drawn a lot of things, although many of them are messy and useless things, but occasionally he is lucky.

For example, in August, Wang Xiao, who had already used up all the victory points he won last season, actually drew 1,000 victory points in a lottery.

With a lot of training skills piled up, it is difficult for Harvard not to become stronger.

And with the start of the new season, another round of winning streak started, and the victory points continued to accumulate again.

But this time, Wang Xiao did not unreservedly use all the victory points to strengthen the daily training of Harvard players.

In Wang Xiao's opinion, the current strength of the team is already very strong. Even if they win the NCAA championship, it is not difficult. It will not be of any real benefit to Wang Xiao to continue to make them stronger.

It's better to accumulate all the victory points and use them after going to the NBA.

With Harvard's big wins without any suspense, Wang Xiao's reputation in the United States is also growing. Coupled with the performance of Durant and Oden, there are more and more NBA players. The team began to pay attention to Wang Xiao, a coach full of magic.

During this period of time, several NBA teams have tentatively contacted Wang Xiao.

Without exception, they all expressed their desire to hire Wang Xiao as the head coach of the team.

However, when Wang Xiao asked for the team's right to decide on the trade, these teams all backed down without exception.

The right to trade is the lifeblood of an NBA team and the greatest right of the general manager of the team.

In the NBA, except for those particularly famous coaches, the head coaches of most teams have no right to ask about the team's player transactions.

Although Wang Xiao's meaning was very obvious, he just told them very straightforwardly that his vision was unique and the players selected would be very good players, but still no team was willing to nod and agree to such a request.

In this situation, Wang Xiao has nothing to do, because he cannot back down on this issue.

Although he has inherited his own memory and has certain attainments in coaching and tactics, Wang Xiao is very clear that there is still a big gap between him and those famous NBA coaches, and these gaps cannot be caught up by reading and studying. Yes, that is the gap in experience, the experience accumulated through thousands of games.

If Wang Xiao wants to gain a firm foothold in the NBA and wrestle with those famous coaches, he can only rely on the player's own performance before he has accumulated experience.

Therefore, Wang Xiao must firmly hold the decision-making power in his hands, and decide which players to use and which players to abandon.

This is like the draft in 2007, if Wang Xiao hadn't secretly tampered with the No. 1 pick, even if he said it out of mouth, the Blazers would never give up on Oden and choose Durant.

Wang Xiao refused to back down, and those teams who wanted Wang Xiao to coach did not back down either, and the situation became stalemate for a while.

But at this moment, things suddenly took a turn for the better...

Washington Wizards, this is a team full of ups and downs.

Most of the time, this team is playing the role of loser.

And this season, the Wizards are undoubtedly one of the most failed teams among the thirty teams.

In the 07-08 season, injuries plagued the Wizards throughout the season. The head star Gilbert Arenas missed 68 games because of a persistent knee injury on his left knee and subsequent microfracture surgery. In addition, Ethan Thomas missed the entire season after undergoing heart surgery. Despite these injuries, the Wizards finished second in the division and made the playoffs for the fourth straight year.

But after the 2007-08 season, the arrival of the new season did not make the situation better.

Gilbert Arenas underwent a third knee operation, and Brandon Heywood, the team's main insider, also underwent right wrist surgery. The team lost 10 of the first 11 games. Team head coach Eddie Jordan dismissed get out of class.

But Ed Tapscott, who replaced him as head coach, didn't improve the team's record.

As of December 28, 2008, the Wizards had a record of 5 wins and 24 losses, ranking first in the Eastern Conference, and had basically declared an early exit and missed the playoffs.

The poor record made the team think from the owner to every staff member that they need someone who can break the status quo.

Then, they locked their eyes on Wang Xiao.

The legendary coach who turned the bottom team in the Ivy League into the favorite to win the championship within one and a half years may help the Wizards change the current embarrassing status quo.

But when they contacted Wang Xiao and learned of Wang Xiao's request, like other teams, they hesitated.

But after thinking about it for a few days, the general manager of the Wizards asked Wang Xiao a question.

"If you became the head coach of the Wizards and got the right to make trade decisions, what would you do?"

Hearing this question, Wang Xiao said without hesitation: "Trade Arenas."

Wang Xiao's answer almost made the head coach of the Wizards choke to death. He felt that it was not unreasonable for several NBA teams to give up Wang Xiao in the end. This guy has to trade the star of the team. This is too messy. .

The current Arenas is not the Arenas who was suspended after 10 years of explosives with a gun, but the strongest second-round pick in history, a well-known general!

Although the past two seasons have been plagued by injuries, Arenas is still in his prime. To trade such an All-Star player is simply nonsense!

Of course, the general manager of the Wizards didn't know that Arenas had been in a slump since he was suspended for the gun incident. After being traded to the Magic by the Wizards, he averaged only 8 points per game.

At present, there are only 32 games left since the gun incident broke out in Arenas. (Arenas was reimbursed for the season in 2008-09. After his comeback in 10 years, he played 32 games and then used a gun to scare his teammates.)

"If you trade Arenas, who do you want to trade him for?" The general manager of the Wizards held back for a long time before asking such a question.

In this regard, Wang Xiao smiled slightly.

"No comment."

Just kidding, this is Wang Xiao's secret. If it is revealed now, the Wizards will hire another coach instead of him afterwards, and then trade Arenas according to his own ideas. Wouldn't it be a big loss?

Wang Xiao will never do things that harm himself and benefit others.
