From a maximum salary of 47 million to no ball to playing, this super giant has retreated too quickly, and retired has become the best choice?

The eighth All-Stars even have a basic salary? Westbrook's situation is really not unfair.

Look at the current free market, Old Paul was robbed by the sun, Horford was as stable as Mount Tai in the Celtics, but Westbrook was deserted.

The data averaged 13 points per game is OK, but the problem behind it is too heartbreaking.

First of all, this "degenerate constitution" cannot be washed away. From the Lakers to the Clippers to the Nuggets, none of the locker rooms he has been in has stopped. Although he can't be blamed entirely, which manager dares to bet? Last season, in the Nuggets, the player who has the third most ball-using rate in the team, and his offensive efficiency is only 18% of the Super League in each ball - he has a core resource to do substitute work, who doesn’t have a headache? What is more fatal is that it is out of touch with the times. Now each team pays attention to space efficiency, but Westbrook is still living in the basketball model ten years ago. The three-point shooting percentage fell to 23%, the playoff shooting percentage was only 39%, and the box-breaking rate was covered by the league. Harden can transform into a master of field control, George has become a top 3D, but he is stuck in the old shell of "the ball-holding core" and cannot come out.

The most serious thing is the twisted mentality. With a basic salary but cannot let go of the superstar airs, Jokic also asked him to assist him during the Nuggets. Look at Horford, who is worth 30 million yuan, is willing to be a blue-collar worker, and it is unambiguous to pick-and-roll and grab the board. But what about Westbrook? He is not willing to be a pure engineer, but he cannot withstand the efficiency of the main attack. He always has a negative double digit number in the playoffs. Who doesn’t shake his head when he puts this data?

Harden and George of the same class can still get a contract of 30 million, but Westbrook doesn't even have the courage to execute the option of 3.5 million. Don't blame the Lakers James - he made a mistake when giving him the ball, and he won't run without the ball. It is no coincidence that it takes five years to go to six teams. The cruelty of modern basketball lies here: either evolve or disappear.

After all, it is not that the team does not give opportunities, but that Westbrook himself does not leave room for basketball evolution. When top cores like Jokic are unwilling to adjust the system for him, the countdown to retirement really hits.
