210 million yuan lying on the operating table again in 4 years! Knee was scrapped during the offseason, and the three giants 700 million yuan became the laughing stock of the league

The bad news just came out of the Philadelphia 76ers training hall, and Paul George's left knee lens surgery was successfully completed! The superstar who signed a four-year maximum salary of 212 million yuan last summer was injured again in offseason training - only two months left before the new season training camp, the Big Three had to lose the general first before they could reunite. What's even more ironic is that the 76ers spent 700 million US dollars last season for the combination of Embiid + George + Maxi. As a result, the three giants missed a total of 107 games, which directly made the team the most expensive fishing team in NBA history!

Knee injured when training during offseason? The 34-year-old veteran's knee disaster cycle

George's operation is a medical miracle - others recover from injuries and accumulate energy during the offseason, but he was fine and lie on the operating table directly! Looking through his injury history, the US team broke its leg in 2014, the shoulder rotor muscle torn in 2019, and toe bone edema in 2021, and now there is another left knee surgery.

The 76ers last season, he rested 41 games under the banner of "load management", averaged 16 points per game and hit a new low in ten years, and his defensive efficiency fell outside the league's 200th place. The sentence in Shams' report "re-evaluation before training camp" is obviously a smoke bomb. Referring to his average recovery cycle in the past five years, he was basically reimbursed for the first 20 games of the new season. The 76ers team doctor is afraid that he will regret it now: If I had known this, I should have bought 1 billion insurance for George’s knees!

700 million US dollars were wasted! The truth about the bankruptcy of the Big Three in Philadelphia

is heartbreaking. Embiid's salary will be 213 million yuan, George will be 212 million yuan, and Maxi will be 204 million yuan in five years (assuming the maximum salary renewal), and the total salary of the three people exploded. But how many games did these three brothers play together last season? 11 games in total! When three people are present at the same time, the 76ers will win 4.3 points per 100 rounds; when any one is missing, the team will directly become the lottery level. What's even more fatal is the role player configuration - in order to gather the three giants, the 76ers have 7 basic salary players sitting on the bench, and the substitutes are at the bottom of the league in averaging points per game. The management operation is like a gambler betting on all his wealth to buy three dices, but the dice is broken before it is thrown! Where is the poison of

George's contract? Three major clauses have killed Philadelphia

carefully studied George's four-year 212 million contract, and 76 people were digging their own graves. First, the full guarantee clause. Even if George had been in surgery for four years, the 76ers would have to pay 212 million yuan. Second, 15% trading margin. If you want to sell goods, you have to pay an additional 31.8 million yuan. Who dares to take over the alliance? Third, the player options are locked until 2027. George was 37 years old and the 76ers could not move if they wanted to rebuild.

Compared with Durant who was 36 years old, he got a 1-year and 50 million short contract, Leonard had 3 years and 152 million included team options, and the contract 76ers gave George can be called a "care home charity plan". Now looking back at the Clippers' smile when they released people, they have long seen through this glass body and cannot bear the big contract!

There is only one way left to get rid of the trap: Embiid's countdown to force the palace

George not only stabbed his knees, but also Embiid's window to win the championship. The 31-year-old MVP averaged 35 points per game last season and could not lead the remnants of the team. Now, seeing that he has to be an audience on the bench again in the new season, anyone will have an explosive mentality. Internal news from the league has revealed: "If George still cannot return in two months of the start of the game, Embiid's team will promote the transaction. "The potential next Knicks are eyeing it - they hold 8 first-round picks and are eager to open the supermarket for 76ers. As for George? Before the end of this contract, he was destined to be the traffic responsibility of Philadelphia fans every day.

When George was lying on the operating table for knee cleaning, the 76ers' dream of winning the championship was completely emptied. The three most expensive giants in NBA history teach with bloody reality. They are not as good as investing in team doctors than to build superstars. They do not have the talent for health, but are just astronomical figures on luxury tax bills. This is the sound of basketball. Thank you for your likes and attention
