He just wants to quietly take the last $100 million

Basketball

Averaged 7.4 points, 1 rebound and 1.4 assists per game, with three shooting percentages of 35.9%, 33.3% and 66.7%. This is Bradley Beal's current data with the Clippers.

He made Clippers fans despair with his extremely stable output.

Perhaps the Clippers were not the party that suffered heavy losses. After all, their investment in Bill was only 11 million in two years. However, everyone understands how much money Bill can still take away: Even if he voluntarily gives up $13.8 million, Bill's buyout with the Suns has reached a terrifying $97 million - this money will be included in the Suns' future salary cap over five years, 19.38 million per year.

For a team to be willing to spend 100 million to oust him is enough to show how bad he is. However, his performance now may be even worse than expected.

When Bradley Beal returns to Phoenix, what kind of answer will he hand in?

In 20 minutes, he made 2 of 14 shots, 5 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist. Beal, who replaced Harden as the top attacker, suffered a complete defeat in Phoenix - his opponent Jaylen Green, who made his debut for the Suns, scored a game-high 29 points against Beal. However, Beal only reached 29 points in one game last year.

In fact, the relationship between Bill and the Sun should be very harmonious. After all, his agent, Mark Bartelstein, is the father of current Suns CEO Josh Bartelstein. But their breakup was not so honorable.

"When you let me be the real Bill, I will. But when you have two coaches asking me to set screens for others, to play off the ball, to dunk, it won't be Bill, but someone else."

Bill is unwilling to reveal too many details. For example, in December, he began to be involved in a lot of news rumors. The Suns tried to trade him and put him on the bench.

But Bill mentioned many times that it was the Suns that asked him to leave, not his own decision.

It took two years from arrival to departure, and facts have indeed proven that this alliance was a huge mistake.

The Suns were wrong and they chose the wrong person; Bill was wrong because he was not that person.

Some people knew about this from the beginning, and some people never knew about it.

From the University of Florida to the NBA, Bill has always been a low-key presence. This kind of description has always been a good thing for outsiders. No one cares about his position or his past. People clearly know that Bill can become a shooting guard who can easily score more than 20 points in the NBA - the Washington Wizards have Wall, and Bill is a very suitable, natural second-in-command.

In 2012, Bill was selected by the Wizards with the third overall pick. In 2016, the salary cap increased significantly, and Bill received dividends. The first maximum salary contract he signed reached 128 million for five years, with an average of 25.6 million. Wall, who renewed his contract two years earlier, could only receive less than 17 million this year.

Then Wall suffered a serious Achilles tendon injury. Later, the injury recurred, and people naturally accepted the fact that Bill became the team boss. The league launched the super maximum salary in order to allow small-market teams to retain the core of the team as much as possible, so the Wizards continued to increase Bill's salary. There was no need for record, and the years have been quiet.

So, what would happen if Bill stayed with the Wizards, everyone should have a similar answer in their hearts.

Will he become a second or third player on another team? Can he do this role well? Is he willing to change his style to become that character? Or...are his statistics with the Wizards relevant?

There are no clear answers to these, but for so many years, there have been teams that have wanted to buy Bill, but they have never really actively promoted it. The fact is that if the Wizards hadn't hired a new helmsman, Wenger, who was eager to stir up the still water of the Wizards, the Wizards' upgrading would have continued until Bill really couldn't move.

Bill himself admitted that when Wenger came to him and suggested that he go out and try a different life, he realized that the team was looking for people, so he said, OK.

When the Suns told him that they were already negotiating a deal, but you had the right to veto the deal and needed to give up, he did not compromise. But this summer, when the Suns management clearly told him that a buyout was required anyway, and he had to give up 13.8 million to ensure the normal operation of the team, he said, OK.

In fact, he wanted to go to the Heat more, and later the Knicks, Kings, Nets and Bucks, but they all couldn't make enough salary space. The Clippers were the first to clearly offer a contract, so he said, OK.

Then he came to the Clippers. The color of the jerseys here was also very different from that of the Wizards, but he changed to jersey No. 0. They promised that he could continue to play in the starting lineup and partner with Harden. He thought it was good, so he signed.

This is actually the background of Bill's character. He is easy-going and resigned to the situation. He doesn't like to make things difficult for others. It would be best if everything is about the same and everyone is satisfied.

This may be the look of the best teammate, but... it is definitely not the look of the team's ace.

TA columnist Katz shared this incident:

During his time with the Wizards, Pierce often scolded Bill and Wall because they did not like to speak loudly in the team and establish leadership authority. When Pierce finished yelling, Bill remained silent because he felt that his predecessors should be respected. But in the shower, he found Temple, another veteran, and complained.

"You know, Pierce always likes to say something, but sometimes he also messes around and does the same thing.Mini-game recommendations:Shopaholic Black Friday
