162 million US dollars in three years, George was injured again! The new NBA garbage contract was born, and the emperor has no way out

NBA players' salaries are rising, and a large maximum salary contract is the decent that a superstar should have. For example, Alexander of the Thunder, who completed the scoring champion + MVP + championship + FMVP Grand Slam in a single season. He has a record of 285 million US dollars in four years. By the same token, a garbage contract is enough to ruin the team's bright future. For example, Bill of the Suns, a five-year maximum salary contract of US$251 million + trade veto made the team miserable and became a real hot potato. The Suns have not yet dumped Bill, but they have given Booker a super maximum salary of $145 million in two years, which is gratifying but has been questioned. I don’t know if Booker’s contract will become a poison contract, but one thing is certain that a new garbage contract has been born in the East!

What I want to talk about is George of the 76ers! Turning back to last year's offseason, George asked for a maximum salary step by step in the renewal negotiations with the Clippers, but the Clippers had to give up. In the end, George and the 76ers reached a four-year, $212 million maximum salary contract and transferred to the Philadelphia Assistant Emperor. Considering George's injury history and age, many people are not optimistic about the signing of Philadelphia, and reality is also moving towards the direction expected by the outside world. Last season, George stopped and stopped due to injury, playing only 41 games for 76ers, averaging 16.2 points + 5.3 rebounds + 4.3 assists + 1.8 steals per game, shooting percentage of 43% and three-point shooting percentage of 35.8%. Obviously, George's output seems too abstract in the face of an annual salary of $49.21 million.

Just today, bad news came from 76 people, and George was injured again! According to NBA famous reporter Shams, George suffered a knee injury in a recent training session and has successfully undergone left knee arthroscopy treatment. He will undergo a follow-up examination before the new season training camp begins. George suffered a serious knee injury during training after being out of control. Rather than saying that he was working hard to prove himself in the new season, he was not as good as saying that his age and body were not enough to support high-intensity training, and he could not expect George to be healthy during the long season or even help the team go deep into the playoffs to fight to the championship! According to statistics, in the past six seasons, George has played less than 60 games in five seasons and less than 50 games in three seasons.

George's contract has 3 years and 162 million US dollars, fully guaranteed. Among them, the salary in the 25-26 season was US$51.67 million, the salary in the 26-27 season was US$54.12 million, and the player option worth US$56.58 million in the 27-28 season was US$56.58 million. Considering that George is 35 years old and the reality that he is constantly injured, the 76ers have to prepare for the rain. NBA famous reporter Evan Sidery pointed out incisively: If George's knee surgery causes him to miss the game early next season, then the 2025 Tanhualang Edgecom will have a clearer road to rise, and he will usher in a shining moment in the rookie season. Edgecom became famous in his debut in the Summer League, scoring 28 points + 10 rebounds. Even George said on the podcast: I saw Butler's shadow in Edgecom, and he is destined to become a top star. Although Echcomb is beautiful, he is still a 19-year-old boy after all. The star who decides the fate of this 76ers is still Emperor Embiid. But the unfortunate thing is that the Emperor was also tortured by injuries and illness. In the 21-23 season, the Emperor won two scoring champions and 1 MVP, and was incredible; but in the past two seasons, the Emperor has suffered from knee injuries and has only played 58 games in total, which makes people feel sad and angry at him for not fighting! NBA famous reporter Tony Jones pointed out incisively: The Emperor has not resumed basketball activities so far, but the Sixers are optimistic that the Emperor is expected to recover from health at the start of training camp, preseason and regular season, and can catch up with the opening game of the new season.

George's maximum salary is becoming a new garbage contract in the NBA. The Emperor's contract has 4 years and 243 million US dollars. Considering the Emperor's frequent injury history, this big contract may also become a garbage contract, but the Emperor has no way out. He must carry the burden and prove that he is still the trustworthy MVP& scoring king! The 76ers not only have two maximum-paid stars, the Great and George, but also have maximum-paid supernovas like Maxi, as well as young talents like McCain and Edgecomb. They can not only win in the present, but also destroy the team and rebuild at any time! In other words, if the Emperor cannot maintain health in the new season or loses his courage after his comeback, then the 76ers are likely to cut the mess quickly and break up with George and the Emperor early. Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
