With an annual salary of $27 million, he scored only 7.8 points in the playoffs, shooting 29.1% from the field and 24.1% from three-point range.
Former champion point guard Kyle Lowry is now reduced to a complete premium contract.
At the age of 36, he is clearly unable to support his huge contract.
During the playoffs, Lowry's true shooting percentage on the offensive end was only a pitiful 41.3%.
Of the players who played at least four games, they ranked second from the bottom in the league, only better than Bulls rookie Dosem.
Shrewd, but in the end he counted himself in.
Riley couldn't have imagined that Lori's state would fall so quickly.
The previous year was still the boss of the Raptors, but the second year it was difficult to even score 20 points.
Ten playoff games, six single-digit points, including two zero points.
In Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Lowry was on 0-of-6 6 from the fray, with three turnovers and five fouls.
That game, if he can help the Heat win, the series will not be dragged to game seven.
Last week, Reddit, a well-known foreign forum, launched a vote on who is a high-paid and low-energy candidate in active duty.
Although Lorider's vote rate is not the first, his name appears in the list.
We need to respect the veteran, but at the same time we need to respect reality, and his performance is paid close to thirty million a year, which is indeed a premium.
This is a hurdle in competitive sports that no player can pass.
The strong cannot always be strong, and in the face of age, no matter who will lose.
James will stay in shape a little longer, but there will also be a day when he falls off the altar, maybe two years, maybe three years later.
From the perspective of the open eye, compared to Wei Shao, in fact, Lowry is more unsuitable for the Lakers.
After all, Wei Shao can also ensure attendance, and Lowry is not only in poor condition, but also has a lot of absences.
In the past three years, he has missed a total of 79 regular season games, an average of more than 25 per year.
If the trade is really completed, James can't play, thick eyebrows can't play, Lowry can't play, and the record will only be worse.
It is worth mentioning that on August 12, zach Buckley, a reporter in the open-air stands, revealed that the Timberwolves may be Lowry's next home, and the chip is Russell's swap.
If the deal can be reached, it may be a win-win situation.
