Finally, we waited for this day, 38-year-old Cameron Anthony announced on social media that he would end his 19-year NBA career and officially announce his retirement. There is no retirement tour, no shirt exchange, all the sadness is frozen in this moment, it is difficult to say goodbye.
Having said more than once, Cameron Anthony is a perfect scorer and ninth on the NBA's all-time regular season scoring list, and that achievement speaks for itself. However, the only regret is that Anthony's career has never won a championship trophy, and last season in the Los Angeles Lakers, he also became a swan song, and the team did not even make the playoffs. But none of this matters.
He didn't become the best player of all time, but it didn't matter, he did what he was good at.
Anthony is a pure scorer, he is proficient in all scoring skills when he first enters the league, especially back singles, James did not fully master this skill until the Heat, but the moment Anthony entered the league, he can use this move to crush defenders. Of course, Anthony's most amazing thing is his three-threat jumper. He is like a hero who despises life, obviously he can score in the simplest and most efficient way, but he is always willing to use dry jumpers, simple and good-looking.
Unfortunately, the speed at which he matures cannot keep up with the speed of aging. In the end, under the torrent of the times, Anthony became a homeless man of the alliance, the proud son of the sky on the Denver plateau, the proud king of the big apple city, and in the long river of years, he became a ray of light and shadow, gradually dissipating. Then we see, the inappropriateness of the Thunder period, the snow hiding of the Rockets period, the redemption of the Blazers, and the final dance of the Lakers. After leaving the Knicks, he still has many offensive moves in his mind, but his age and body have made it impossible for him to continue to perform. He matured and grew old, and everything was so sudden.
When he first entered the rivers and lakes, he was a fearsome swordsman, and under the whole world, there was no trick that he could not learn, but luck, tactics, teammates, and state all allowed him to play with himself, and in the end he won nothing.
Anthony's announcement of his retirement is expected, but we still have some unacceptability. This also means that the pride of the 03 generation is now only LeBron James. In Anthony's last dance, being able to join LeBron James is actually a farewell feast of youth for fans.
People's aging is not a long process, but in a moment, in this moment, you begin to realize that those things that belong to youth have gone, and those young years that belong to you have been somewhat blurred. In this moment, we are no longer young, and the only hope is that we drink late at night, the cups clash together, and what we hear is not the sound of broken dreams.
