NBA development 75 years has a perfect salary system, the size of the player's contract, years and salary, there is a complete set of rules and regulations, therefore, to give a player a long contract is actually a gambling of the management, if you play the price, then the management blood earns; if you do not play out, then the management blood loss. Therefore, the shrewd management of each team is very clear about the length of the contract, but there are some players in the NBA who reject the team's big contract, think that their ability is more valuable, and end up with a basket of water, not only the big contract is not fished, and even they can't play in the NBA, these players perfectly illustrate this.
Thomas Jr. has played 77 games in 5 years
Speaking of Thomas Jr., I am afraid that fans will not be unfamiliar, he was known as the "strongest 175 on the surface" at that time, and in the 16-17 regular season, he played a perfect performance of 28.9 points per game. However, this performance also made Thomas Jr. arrogant, when the Celtics handed over a 4-year, 70 million contract, Thomas resolutely refused, and gave the Celtic management a message, asking him to renew himself with a truckload of money. As a result, this led to dissatisfaction among the Green Army management, who did not hesitate to trade him out when they had the opportunity to get him. After leaving the Green Army, he found that his strength was based on the tactical system that Stevens laid out for him, and after leaving the Green Army, Thomas Jr. achieved nothing, and even changed 7 teams in the past 5 years, only playing 77 games.
Cousins rejected the Pelicans for 2 years and 40 million
In the 17-18 NBA regular season, Cousins broke his Achilles tendon in a game, you know, the previous NBA Achilles tendon rupture injury for Cousins, such a big center, almost sentenced to death, so in the offseason, except for the Pelicans who thought about contributing and gave him a 2-year, $40 million contract, no team wanted to sign him with a maximum salary. An angry Cousins felt humiliated, thinking, "Since none of you want to play with me, let's not play!" So Cousins's 5.3 million middle class joined the Warriors to form the Big Five, but this was the beginning of Cousins's tragedy.
Although He got some opportunities in the Warriors, and even with the injuries of Durant and Thompson, Cousins once became the most important offensive point for the Warriors, but then left the Warriors and went to many teams, Cousins became a tramp in the league, not only had no team status, but also signed a base salary. In the Game of the Warriors and the Nuggets playoffs G2, the Nuggets' Barton was angry at Cousins, changing to the previous Cousins, it is estimated that Barton's fractures were light, but this time, Cousins could only swallow his breath and make people sigh.
Schroeder gradually disappeared
When it comes to the feud between Schroeder and the Lakers, Presumably Lakers fans know better than anyone. After a losing season in the 20-21 season, after scoring 15.4 points and 5.8 assists in Schroeder, the Lakers management still handed him a four-year, $84 million contract and listed him as part of the team's future development plan. But Schroeder was completely unsympathetic and felt he deserved a bigger contract. So, that offseason, Schroeder threw himself into the free market, embarrassingly, no one wanted to offer more than the Lakers, and finally Schroeder only signed a 1-year, $5.9 million contract with the Celtics, and then traded him to the Rockets. （ikuet）
