He was seriously injured in his career and made 518 million in fourth place in history! He is just an ordinary All-Star, and now he makes money by 76ers

In this era, many players have won super top salary contracts, and some players have their first contract renewal contracts of more than 200 million. This is something that many top super giants in history have not won. Of course, it is mainly because players in that era could not get big contracts. Now it is different. With the growth of the team's market value and the annual revenue generation in the NBA, many players have made a lot of money, among which the players' union's contribution is indispensable.

Nowadays, many players are still dissatisfied with their current income. Curry had previously stated that players should get shares, and Jaylen Brown also agrees with this view. As a businessman, James has a very good economic mind. Recently, news from the US media is that James wants to create a global basketball event, in which the salary given to the players is a shareholding system, which is estimated to make many players willing to participate.

Whether a player can make a lot of money in his career is that he is a star. In the current situation, it is no longer realistic for ordinary All-Stars to win a large contract for a long time. The new version of the labor-management agreement has prevented many players from getting the contract they like. The second factor is that they are healthy enough. Take Tatum as an example. Although he had won a 310 million contract extension contract before, if Tatum cannot recover from his peak after suffering a major injury this time, he probably will not be able to win a large contract in the future.

However, there were also accidents. Many players suffered major injuries, but they were still able to win big contracts. On the one hand, because of their outstanding abilities, and on the other hand, they were famous enough to bring enough attendance and attention to the team. Durant is a good example. He suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon and still won many super maximum salary contract renewals. As a super giant, it is understandable that he can still maintain his peak after his serious injury.

However, Paul George is now an ordinary All-Star player. It can be said that he has been positioned like this most of his career. Except for his super-season performance in a single season and being selected into the top three of the MVP list, his positioning for other seasons is just an ordinary All-Star. As a result, he has made 518 million in his career so far, ranking fourth in history, and is ahead of him, namely James, Curry and Booker.

George suffered a major injury from a broken leg when he was young. This time, the major injury made him lose his explosive power. The previous George template was considered McGrady, and his playing style was very elegant and had a star-like temperament. However, after the major injury, his speed slowed down and his explosive power was not as good as before. George used to often performed heavy dunks, and after the major injury, George was also very smart. He began to change his previous playing style and began to learn how to play 3D.

relies on three-pointers and defense. The height of 2.03 meters is mainly used in the No. 2 position. His height has advantages on both offense and defense. Moreover, George has both ball and ball ability, which also makes his value recognized. Therefore, George is like a fish in water in this small ball era. He has always held a big contract. His first contract extension in his career was as high as 80 million in 5 years. Later, he joined the Thunder for 4 years and 137 million in 4 years, and he also received a big contract of 4 years and 190 million in 4 years.

George is a player who is sober in the world. He really wants honors, but in comparison, he is more interested in big contracts. Last year, the Clippers thought about renewing George's contract. Leonard had already set an example. He chose to reduce his salary and renew his contract. The Clippers wanted to use this to make George's salary and renew his contract. Who would have thought that George would not listen to this at all. He just wanted to get a big contract, and no one could persuade him. In desperation, the Clippers could only let him leave.

And George is also lucky. He received a 4-year and 220 million quotation contract from 76ers in the offseason last year. In this case, George signed the contract without any hesitation. After all, this is the largest contract. After joining the 76ers, many fans also fantasized that George and Embiid Maxi could lead the 76ers to win. Although the annual salary of a third-in-chief exceeds 50 million is very expensive, the 76ers are also trying their best. They believe that George can help them succeed.

But in the end, the 76ers misunderstood. They realized that George might lose his peak in the last two years of this contract and became a premium contract. Unexpectedly, George was absent due to injuries in his first season. He only played 41 games in the entire regular season, averaging only 16 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game. Because of his poor performance, the outside world began to question the operating ability of the 76ers and believed that George was a premium contract.

According to the 76ers' expectations, perhaps only next season, George is not considered a premium. He gave such a big contract, but it was helpless to make it like this. Although the 76ers are now mute and eat coptis, George is very comfortable. He has received a big contract. I didn't ask you to give it, it was you willing to give it to me. George made a profit last season, and I don’t know what will happen in the next few seasons. Having said that, what do you want to say about Paul George? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
