The new third young master of Thunder spent 822 million yuan. Will he correct his mistakes or fail to be too much?

On July 10, Chett renewed his contract for 5 years and $250 million;

On July 11, Jewe renewed his contract for 5 years and $287 million;

In the face of another key node of whether the core player renews his contract, Presti did not hesitate anymore, and threw out three big contracts in one breath, firmly locking the future of the new third young master. Interestingly,

did not renew Harden's contract that year, resulting in the collapse of the three young masters. Thunder was ridiculed by the crowd and has been stingy until now;

This time, the new three young masters were retained and generously sold 822 million yuan, and Thunder was ridiculed for being stupid and having too much money;

It seems that everything is wrong to do? So, is Mr. Pu correcting his mistakes this time or not?

First of all, we must emphasize that we won the championship this time, not last time.

Since you have won the championship and it is the first championship in the team history, it is naturally necessary to reward merits, and the new third young master is undoubtedly the first three hero. The Celtics, who won the championship last year, also generously gave a series of contract extensions in the summer. If you are hesitant and bargaining at this time, wouldn’t the heroes be upset?

Second, Thunder also gave the third major contract that year.

is just given to Sergio Ibaka in the inside. Before renewing the contract, Ibaka had become the league's blocking king and was selected for the best defensive team. In other words, the Thunder management believes that it is more reasonable to form a team around Durant + Westbrook + Ibaka, two and two insiders, so they are stingy about Harden's contract renewal. Of course, they must have never expected that Harden would reach such a height later.

Third, is Chet really worth it?

Alexander was full of honors, and he was the first to renew his contract with a maximum salary, no one objected; Jewish, All-Star + Three Form + Two Defense, played 40+6+4 in a single game in the finals, and he got a maximum salary, which is generally considered to be acknowledged; but Chet? However, just 15 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks, and more than half of the games were missing in three seasons, can this be the maximum salary?

Just looking at the data, Chet is indeed not obvious, but anyone who has watched the Thunder game knows that Chet has a huge influence on the defensive end, and the coverage area may only be under Wenban Yama; the offensive end has a variety of methods, does not occupy the ball, and can open up space. These factors are valuable in today's era, without much need to say much. What's more, Chet can make progress.

So, at first glance, the maximum salary is a bit expensive, but think about it last summer, the Knights also paid Mobley the maximum salary. These days, young and big men should make a lot of money.

The fourth, can the thunder withstand it?

To be honest, three maximum salary, in the current context of the league's strict salary control, is no longer as simple as whether you are willing to pay luxury taxes or not. It is difficult for anyone to withstand it, let alone a small football market like Oklahoma. However, the new third young masters have renewed their contracts in advance. Next season, Jewish and Chett will only have a little over 20 million, and there will still be a rookie bonus for one year; even SGA is still executing the previous maximum salary contract, with a next season of 38.33 million. Compared with the current salary of 6000 or even 70 million yuan everywhere, SGA is also considered a welfare contract.

When both Jewish and Chet began to execute new contracts in the 26-27 season, the salary of both of them was 41.37 million, while SGA's last contract had the last year left, 40.81 million, and the three of them added 120 million, which was quite reasonable. Moreover, at this time, Hartten (28.5 million) and Dort (17.72 million) have the last one year left in the team options, and it is not impossible to operate if necessary.

The real pressure was the 27-28 season. SGA began to execute new contracts, with a starting salary of 60.81 million yuan in the first year. With the other two young men's two 44.68 million yuan, the salary of the three men reached 150 million yuan, which is indeed a heavy burden. But isn’t this going to happen two years later? Who can make it clear in two years? The NBA world is changing rapidly, such as the series of things that happened to the Celtics this year, who could have thought of winning the championship last summer.

Therefore, if you have wine today, you will be drunk today, and you will be sad tomorrow.

If you don’t take advantage of the first championship in the team history in the next two years, don’t fight at this time, when will you wait? If you really have poor record or have an accident, it will be too late to make other plans. Some people say, what if you can't send it out when you smash it, don't forget that the Thunder is full of draft picks, you can't get it all.
