According to Billups, Lillard, who is plagued by an abdominal tendon injury, will be sure that he will not play with the team for the next six consecutive away games, and will leave the team this week to meet experts to discuss treatment options.
Sean Highkin, a reporter in the open-air stands, reported that Lillard may even have been reimbursed for the season.
The shorter the news, the bigger the matter, the more miserable the Blazers, this CJ has not yet comeback, Lee coaching may be reimbursed, this season we can still see a two-gun combination?
Coach Lee has been in a state of recuperation since January 1st against the Lakers, when Coach Lee did not suddenly appear any obvious discomfort, but this slowly accumulated injury is more terrible, after all, everything is the same, dragging and dragging has not been dealt with, one day it will make you need to spend more time dealing with it.
If Coach Lee really pays for the season, then the Trail Blazers should have announced the end of this season in advance, right?
At present, the Blazers are only 11th in the West with 15 wins and 24 losses, according to this trend, even the playoffs qualifiers are not eligible to play, and the case of Lillard can not go up, if there is no Lillard, how can the Blazers resist the most difficult schedule after the All-Star?
Oh yes, if there is any update to Lee's injury, trouble the Blazers to announce it early, don't cover up the hidden, if you really can't fight, then the All-Star can also vote for others.
However, Yang someone feels the most disturbing thing is that this summer, Lee Guidance will be eligible to renew a 2-year, $107 million contract with the Blazers in advance, and all indications at present are that if the Blazers dare to give, Lee Guidance will not refuse to sign.
This and this, last summer, Lee coach did not once make a fuss to leave the team to compete for the championship in other teams, this year reluctantly stayed just to give a chance to compare to Lups, now the Blazers record has not improved, how can Lee coach change his mind so quickly.
Sure enough, the Blazers still give too much ah, who will refuse 50 million a year, not to mention the current coaching injury is still unknown, can not hesitate to give a 32-year-old star who may be reimbursed for the season 50 million contract team, probably know the Blazers themselves.
Well, unconsciously, Lee Guidance is also 32 years old, the current contract expires in 2025, then Lee Guidance will be 35 years old, these 2 years 107 million once given, the most blacked star may not be Paul.
Although we don't know what happened to make Lee Coach suddenly change his mind and leave the team within a few months, but now in this situation, even if Lee Guide chooses loyalty, I am afraid that he will become a pioneer if he hesitates, right?
After all, as mentioned earlier, now this contract ends Lillard will be 35 years old, the best result of leading the team for so many years is the Western Finals, more basically a round of travel, the peak of the lee guidance can not lead the team to win the championship, it can be predicted that the next few years the competitive state may begin to slowly decline, this 50 million a year once given, basically announced that the Blazers have no chance to win the championship.
From the perspective of the blazers, be conservative and wait for the profit guidance to finish the contract and then look at the situation selection plan, the radical one, it is estimated that they have begun to think about the trading interest guidance to exchange some high-quality chips and begin to rebuild.
One person and one city is beautiful, but spending so much money every year can't win the championship, even if it is not enough, The coach may leave the team at any time, and the Blazers are really better off deciding to start rebuilding early than instead of ending up with nothing.
This upsets Finney Simmons hasn't played very well lately, averaging 29 points and 6.5 assists in four absent games, shooting 51.3 percent from three-point range, and having a 43-point highlight in a single game.
Although Simmons is not a big fortune for the time being, but Lee's salary for one year may be enough for Simmons' entire salary for several years, and the extra money will be used to recruit other players. It depends on how the Trailblazers choose.
