Chapter 560: Expansion draft

At ten o'clock in the morning on the 21st, Richard and Jordan both got the list of this draft expansion.
There are twenty-nine teams in a single team. Each team has several players who are not protected by the protection list. Richard can choose these players as players of their new pirate team.
Throughout the history of the NBA, counting the pirates' expansion draft, there have been 11 draft expansion drafts.
With the development of history, naturally, the rules of each draft expansion are changing.
The rules of this military expansion draft have changed a lot. In terms of the number of pirates, there are at least 14 and at most 29!
The reason for the maximum of 29 players is simple, because the league currently has only 29 teams other than the new pirates, and each team can only choose one unprotected player, so the natural limit is 29.
Each team can come up with a protection list to protect up to eight players. Of course, for example, a team is a head iron, and no player is protected. That is not impossible.
Anyway, the upper limit is eight, and the lower limit is not.
The completely free agent does not have the qualification to be selected, such as Clark, even if the Pistons do not protect him, the Pirates cannot select him.
This may also be the reason why the Pistons did not renew Clark's early contract.
If Clark renews his contract early, he is not a completely free agent right now, and the Pistons have to waste a protection spot to protect him.
There are too many powerful newcomers in the Pistons, and any protection spot is extremely precious to them.
...
What kind of players will be put on the protection list, in fact, this does not mean that the players are strong, they will be protected.
Some players are quite good, but the contract price is high, and the price/performance ratio is not high. In this case, the team will deliberately not protect, try to let the new army choose to leave, and get rid of this low-cost contract.
If a team's eight protected lists are not enough, there is also a solution.
They can use other conditions such as draft rights, cash or transfers in exchange for the Bobcats picking a player or not.
For example, the Pistons have a lot of cost-effective players in their team. It is possible to send draft rights or cash compensation in order to prevent the new army from picking a certain player.
For example, the Kings, they can open up chips, let the Pistons choose Rahim, which is not cost-effective, and get rid of Rahim's contract...
Anyway, there are quite a lot of doors in this expansion draft. A savvy boss, if operated properly, may get great benefits from this expansion draft.
"Li, these lists cannot be leaked out. Once caught, it would be a fine of one million dollars!" Jordan frowned.
Richard nodded, and indeed there are such regulations in the expansion draft.
The team's protection list cannot be leaked, and offenders are fined a million dollars.
This is also the purpose of the league to protect the emotions of players. If the players see that they are not on the protection list, they will definitely be very dissatisfied.
"Relax, Michael, my mouth is more strict than yours." Richard stared at the list and said with a smile.
That was a fine of one million dollars, and unless I was full, I would leak this list.
Holding the list in hand, Richard and Jordan studied carefully.
"This is the Boston Celtics' list. They only protected seven players." Jordan counted Green Kay's protection list and said to Richard.
Richard nodded, and Green Kay now has valuable players on the protection list. The number of players is really not too large. Pierce, Billups, Perkins and others are all on this protection list.
try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}　　Although Green Kai has a lineup The plan to exchange blood, these players can be protected, the value is quite good, even if they do not need Green Kai, they can also come up with high-value chips.
"Chucky Atkins? Stuart? La Frenz?"
"The Celtics are not protected players, the quality is not bad, unfortunately, our children can choose a player."
Jordan read the names of the three players. In his view, these three players seem to have good strength. After all, they are white pickers. It is quite awesome to get such a grade.
"Don't worry, Michael, we don't have to decide too early on this matter, take a look back." Richard waved his hand and begged Jordan to calm down.
The value of the three players on Green Kai's side may be quite good in Jordan's opinion, but in Richard's view, it is completely cannon fodder. Even if you take it, it will eventually be the role of the patron saint of the water dispenser...
Next is the list of the Nets. Kenyan Martin, Kidd and Jefferson, the troika, must be on the protection list.
In the exposed list, Richard saw the name of kidney fighter Mo Ning...
For a time, Richard was hesitant. Do you want to choose Mo Ning? !
I have the means to get Mo Ning back to the top. If I take it down, it seems not impossible.
The key now is that Mourning’s contract is quite cheap. His maximum salary contract ended in 2003. The contract signed with the Nets last season was only a contract with an annual salary of about five million...
It's not a big deal to eat such a contract.
What Richard didn't expect was that Jordan aside sneered.
"The Nets' management has a good idea in the end, and they have exposed Moning. They don't think we will win Moning? This is something a fool can do!"
"Michael, be quiet, I'm thinking..." Richard's eggs hurt quite a bit, and Jordan chattered aside, disturbing his thoughts.
...
Richard draws a piece of paper from his side and solemnly writes down the Nets-Mourning.
Jordan opened his eyes wide and looked at Richard incredulously.
He had never imagined that Richard seemed to really take a look at Mo Ning!
Is he a fool?
Mo Ning's annual salary of 5 million is indeed not much, but it is better to sign a newcomer with this money. Facts have proved that Mo Ning is almost abolished.
Despite the shock in his heart, Jordan remained rational and did not say much.
Right now, it just started, maybe Richard did not want Mo Ning in the end.
Next came the New York Knicks.
The Knicks team, quite strange, directly put the two highest-paid players in their team on the exposed list.
Alan Houston and Penny Hardaway...
This is a strategy in the military expansion draft, trying to scare away the new army with a high salary.
Richard smiled and threw away the Knicks' list, too lazy to read it.
"Lee, Houston's strength is good. If we win, we can enrich the outside firepower..."
Richard waved his hand, too lazy to explain to Jordan, and continued to look at the 76ers list.
The 76ers list is not so many routines, all edge players are exposed, of which Richard also saw the name of Aron McGee...
When Richard first entered the NBA, he sold Alon McKee, who looked like a great potential, for a good price.
Now that eight years have passed, Aron McGee hasn't produced any decent data. I'm afraid he will retire in the next two years.
try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}　　Next, the Raptors’ Alvin Williams was recorded by Richard.
This is purely a dwarf, Alvin is a thin little quarterback, average strength, but the price is fair.
If the players are particularly cost-effective, they will certainly not be exposed.
After the Raptors, he arrived at Jordan's old club bull.
Jordan's eyes lit up immediately because he saw Pippen's name.
After Pippen walked away from the rocket, he returned to the Bulls, which was considered an old age.
In addition to Pippen, the Bulls' exposed list also has an Antonio Davis, the previous All-Star starting center in the Eastern Conference in 2001.
The reason the Bulls exposed it was naturally because his price/performance ratio was not high enough.
"Unfortunately, this Davis is actually not bad. We took it down and used it as the inner core first, but I prefer to take Pippen." Jordan said with a smile.
"Why don't you just make a list? Let's compare and see which players we choose at the end." Richard didn't want to hear Jordan nagging and asked him to put together a list.
...
What Jordan did not expect was that Richard, whether it was Pippen or Davis, did not seem interested and did not record their names.
The Bulls are followed by Cavaliers and Pacers. On the Cavaliers' exposed list, there is a Jason Capono, a well-known three-point shooter.
Richard did not hesitate to add it to his list.
The Pacers' James Jones was also added to the list. This was the backup small forward at the peak of the Suns, and his strength was just right.
Unexpectedly, Magic put Grant Hill on the exposed list.
This makes Richard a little hesitant. If Hill recovers his health, that's amazing, and his strength is quite strong.
But the salary was a bit too high, making Richard undecided.
Simply put Hill's name on the list first, and wait until the end is over.
The Starkhouse on the Wizards side was exposed.
After the Pistons and Trail Blazers ended last season, the Stackhouse was sold to the Wizards...
Now the Wizards don't see him very much, and he is not protected at all.
Although the price/performance ratio of Stark House is okay, Richard did not intend to.
In the following teams, Richard did not see any players who were too eye-catching.
Until the Los Angeles Clippers ~ EbookFREE.me ~ the Clippers' exposure list is quite rich, including Bobby Simmons and Matt Barnes.
Bobby Simmons' strength is good. He is a rookie who entered the league in 2001. He has played for three seasons now, and he is not exposed. However, Richard remembers that Simons will have a very obvious outbreak next season.
You can probably get 16+6 data per game...
It is also because of this data that he won a big contract, and the contract was signed and turned into Chandler Parsons.
As for Matt Barnes, Richard must no longer be familiar with...
Thinking about it, Richard chose Simmons.
In fact, no matter whether they choose Barnes or Simmons, their final destination must be traded. Simmons will explode next season, which is a good bargaining chip for trading.
If it is not necessary to select at least 14 players in this expansion draft, in fact, Richard may only choose five or six players with relatively high trading value.
