As the saying goes, if you don't die, you won't die, this dialect full of metaphysics also applies to the NBA stage, in this profit-oriented business league, everything is driven by interests, and even accessories, even if it is as strong as a superstar, in the state of the downturn or after the mouth of the wild words, it is difficult to escape the dislike of the team, and even ruthless abandonment and ruthless trampling, so when playing the highlight moment, seizing the opportunity will be the only way to maximize benefits.
今天，盘点现役恃才傲物的五大球星。
5. Give up Schroder, which is 85 million in 4 years
As a German guard, Schroeder has a certain explosive scoring power, rich experience, and the ability to handle the ball at critical moments, which makes this international killer still have a good competitiveness on the NBA stage. In the 2020-21 season, Schroder joined the Lakers, and after the two giants suffered injuries one after another, he once played an extremely extreme game performance, and when facing the Nets, Schroder once played a shocking battle and became a real leader.
After playing bloodthirsty games one after another, Schroder was also extremely arrogant, and once refused a 4-year 85 million contract offered by the Lakers in advance. and threatened to ask for a 100 million yuan contract, due to Schroder's own ability, it does not match this big contract, after all, Schroder is an absolute disadvantage on the defensive end in addition to scoring explosiveness, which also makes the Lakers reject this 100 million yuan contract, and the two sides were at a stalemate until the end of the season.
In the 2021 offseason, Schroder once turned down an offer from the national team, hoping to stay healthy and sign a big contract, but throughout the season, no team was willing to offer a big contract for the German, and in the end, Schroder could only sign with the Celtics on a one-year, 5 million mid-level contract. However, due to Schroder's thin stature and the Celtics' concept of focusing on defense, the incompatibility also made Schroder abandoned by the team and ended the regular season with the Rockets.
However, due to the Rockets' intention to rebuild, Schroder was abandoned again, and after hitting a wall, Schroder could only sign a base salary contract with the Lakers, although he played a good performance and hit a three-point shot at a critical moment to help the team defeat the Timberwolves and break into the playoffs.
In the offseason, Schroder, who played at a high price, signed a 2-year 26 million contract with the Raptors, although it has been improved compared to the base salary contract, but it is far from the 85 million contract in the past.
4. Curry, who gave up a 4-year, 60 million contract
Seth Curry, as a member of the Curry family, although he does not have the explosive scoring output ability of his brother, but his excellent outside projection ability gives Seth Curry an excellent outside feel and deterrence, and even a certain ability to hold the ball, which also makes Seth Curry play extremely well during the 76ers and Nets periods.
After being traded by the 76ers, Seth Curry once played an extremely good performance in the team, and his phenomenal performance also made Seth Curry a very competitive core star, and his excellent performance made the team intend to offer him a 4-year 60 million early contract extension.
However, due to Seth Curry's missed the perfect opportunity, after losing his touch for a while, he once again lost his absolute competitiveness, and after the decline in form, and the Nets fell off the altar and completely declined, Seth Curry also became a dispensable bench bandit, and even lost his competitiveness completely.
In the 2023 offseason, Seth Curry, who lost his competitiveness, can only sign a 2-year 8 million middle-class contract with the Mavericks, so that the sharpshooter will completely lose his deterrent power and miss the perfect opportunity to get a big contract at his peak.
3. Russell, who gave up a 4-year 100 million contract
As a young star, Russell is still very competitive as a two-way defender, although Russell missed out on his peak due to a series of trades. After joining the Timberwolves, Russell's performance can also be described as decent, although he failed to realize his talent, but as a core player, Russell was once expected to sign a 100 million yuan contract with the Timberwolves, but this young man, due to his arrogant performance, also made him lose the opportunity to contract 100 million yuan.
After tearing up the face with the team, the Timberwolves sent Russell to the Lakers, and after joining his old club, Russell's inconsistent performance also made the team extremely dissatisfied.
Even in the playoffs, he was once pressed on the bench by the team, and Russell's disliked performance also made his value drop sharply, and he was once reduced to a dispensable existence, and in the offseason, he could only take a salary cut to sign a 2-year 37 million contract.
In the new season, after signing a salary reduction contract, Russell still did not get the respect of the team, not only has he been on the trade shelf, but also made Russell miss the starting position recently, Russell's gradual distancing state, and the team's dislike of the young star.
will bring new pressure and blows to the young man, perhaps, for this young man, refusing a 4-year 100 million contract will be Russell's biggest mistake, and with the Lakers' current dislike of Russell, wanting to keep this contract will become a luxury and expectation.
2. Owen, who gave up his 4-year, 200 million contract
Irving as a superstar, excellent personal ability, so that Irving is very competitive on the court, after joining the Nets, once hoped to join forces with Durant to establish a dynasty, but because of Irving's strange character, once made Harden extremely dissatisfied with the team, but also took the initiative to apply for a trade, even after Harden left, the team's favor and recognition of Irving, there was no reduction in the slightest, and even did not intend to renew a 200 million contract with him.
Despite the special terms of this contract, if Irving can stay competitive and change his personality, he can still hope to get this super contract. However, due to Owen's strange personality, Owen refused the contract, and therefore parted ways with the team, and after being sent to the Mavericks, Owen was still unscrupulous, and after refusing to play due to personal matters, it also made the Mavericks have a poor record, once from a division finals team, to a team that has become a luxury even to break into the playoffs.
In the offseason, the Mavericks refused to offer him a super contract, and signed a new contract with Irving for 3 years and 128 million, after being squeezed out by many teams one after another, Irving could only sign such a short-term salary reduction contract, although he still has an annual salary of 40 million, but compared with the previous long-term big contract, it is a far cry, it is precisely because of Irving's aggressive personality that it has lost the opportunity to make a big contract.
Therefore, for Owen, the strange character will be the key factor in the loss of tens of millions of yuan, not only that, once Owen declines due to objective factors, it will have a great impact on the next contract, in other words, Owen's strange personality and unwilling to compromise have become Owen's missed 200 million big contract and reduced to a down-and-out star with a salary cut of 10 million yuan.
1. Harden, who gave up his 4-year, 196 million contract
Harden as a superstar, after leaving the Rockets, Harden teamed up with Durant and Irving to form the Nets Big Three, Harden's joining greatly improved the overall strength of the team, and in the first season of the combination, due to the successive injuries of the Big Three, the team stopped in the division semifinals, and Harden once suffered from repeated hamstring injuries, resulting in huge ups and downs in the state.
Despite this, in the offseason, after renewing Durant's contract, the team also intended to renew Harden's contract in advance, but because Harden rejected the contract with the highest salary because of other ideas, after missing this big contract, Harden also broke out conflicts with the team, and chose to join the 76ers.
In the offseason, because the team refused to offer a contract with a maximum salary, the contradictions between Harden and the team continued to erupt, and it also made it difficult for the former superstar to get a contract with a maximum salary. After such a sluggish performance, the team also offered him a 2-year 55 million contract, which will undoubtedly be an extremely humiliating new contract for Harden.
Even if Harden's recent form has rebounded slightly, but for the former superstar, it has become a great luxury to get a 200 million contract, after all, the Clippers have Leonard and George, so it is difficult for Harden to surpass the position of the two in the team, in other words, after missing the Nets big contract, Harden has no chance to compete for the top salary contract again, which will be a great regret and mistake for Harden. Harden will also completely miss the opportunity to get a big contract in his twilight years because of his arrogant performance at the beginning, and may even get nothing, and he may end up in despair.
