3.6 million US dollars in one year! The first person in history! The most decent old point guard in the NBA was born, Westbrook is too difficult

In the era of small balls, the pace is getting faster and faster, but the endurance of players is getting stronger and stronger. The point guard is still the most tenacious position in the NBA league. Their experience and overall situation will become wealth under the baptism and precipitation of time, and the older they are, the more fragrant they get. For example, 37-year-old Curry and 36-year-old Harden are both absolute cores of the team and move forward with the burden; 37-year-old Conley is still earning tens of millions of yuan in annual salary, and he is still getting stronger. During this offseason, two point guards in the league who are older than Curry, Harden and Conley have received decent contracts, continuing a new chapter in their careers, full of warmth!

1 USD 3.6 million, Paul became the first person in history, and the most decent old point guard is Paul. Paul was born on May 6, 1985 and has celebrated his 40th birthday. He is also the second oldest star in the NBA's active league, second only to James, who was about to turn 41 on December 30, 1984. Paul is recognized as the God of contemporary point guards. He made his mark when he was the Hornets, showed his sharpness when he was the Clippers, dreamed of returning to the peak when he was the Rockets and Thunder Suns, worked hard when he was the Warriors, and played his remaining energy when he was the Spurs. He always had a way to make the team and teammates better, interpreting the charm of the God of point guards. Last season, Paul maintained full attendance in 82 games, averaging 8.8 points + 3.6 rebounds + 7.4 assists + 1.3 steals per game, and the assist and turnover ratio was as high as 4.7, ranking third in the league.

This year's offseason, Paul told the world early: the new season will be the last dance, and he has also been snatched by many championship teams! In the end, Paul reached a one-year contract with the Clippers for $3.6 million, returning to the Aerial City, and continued to write a new chapter in the Light Bulb Group, and maintained the hope of winning the championship in the last dance. According to statistics, this is the first time Paul has accepted a basic salary contract in his career, and this is also the first time Paul has accepted a substitute role in his true sense. At the same time, the new season will be Paul's 21st season in his career. He is the first point guard in NBA history to compete for 21 seasons, unprecedented!

$3.6 million in 11 years, Lowry became the second man in NBA history, and the most decent old point guard is Lowry. Lowry was born on March 25, 1986 and is 39 years old. He is also the fifth-oldest player in the NBA active league, second only to James, Paul, Tucker and Gibson. There is another cold knowledge that you have to know: Lowry once worked as a teammate in the Rockets with Yao Ming. Of course, Lowry's most glorious years in his career remained in the Toronto Raptors. He was selected for the All-Star lineup for six consecutive years and helped the Raptors win the first NBA championship trophy in team history as the absolute main point guard in the 2018-19 season. After leaving the Raptors, Lowry played more of the role of locker room leader, especially in the past three seasons, Lowry has suffered from injuries and has played only 95 games in three years, with an attendance rate of only 38.6%.

Even so, Lowry still got the offer. After the free agent trading market opened, Lowry and the 76ers signed a one-year, $3.6 million minimum salary contract. At the same time, Lowry has scored several NBA records. According to statistics, next season is Lowry's 20th season in his career. He is the 12th player in NBA history to compete in the 20th season, comparable to Carter, James, Parish, Willis, Garnett, Nowitzki, Jay Barr, Kobe, Crawford, Haslem and Paul. At the same time, Lowry is also the second point guard in NBA history to compete in the 20+ season, comparable to Paul.

The most decent old point guard in the NBA was born, Westbrook is too difficult

Whether it is Paul or Lowry, they are all examples of the NBA point guards getting older and more charming - Paul can still maintain full attendance to help the team, and Lowry can play the role of locker room leader even if he cannot appear. This is also the reason why they can still get a decent contract early to continue their NBA career at such an old age. In contrast, Westbrook is younger than Paul and has a higher attendance rate than Lowry, but he has not finalized his new owner so far, which is too difficult. If we want to trace the root of the root, the key is that Westbrook is a double-edged sword. He will always be a young man. He will kill a thousand enemies and lose 800 people. The championship team does not believe that he can become a qualified puzzle, and the reconstruction team does not believe that he can become a high-quality mentor. This is also the reason why he is still called "Westbrook" at the age of 37. Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
