In September and October 2020, the Lakers won the championship at the Orlando Disney Park 4:1 Trail Blazers, 4:1 Rockets, 4:1 Nuggets and 4:2 Heat, when a total of 15 players were selected into the 15-man playoff squad, and to this day, only James and Davis are still in the Lakers, so the remaining 13 have gone separately**?
1st place: Rajon Rondo, 87 points 55 assists, now: retired form!
Rondo contributed a lot in the playoffs that year, but James didn't like to be "fingered" on the team, so the Lakers prioritized space in the offseason to average 189 points and Schroder, who has an annual salary of 16 million, so that Rondo is left with only a base salary, so the Hawks signed him with only two years and 15 million, and then Rondo returned to the Lakers in 22 years, but only played 18 games and was abandoned by the Lakers, the Lakers exchanged Rondo for Valentin and immediately laid off Valentin, this operation helped the Lakers save $7 million in luxury tax, and no one cares about Rondo's mood.
Rondo likes to play the role of coach on the field.
2nd place: Danny Green, Finals 75 points 28 rebounds, now: Idle at home!
Danny Green shot just 28 three-pointers in the Finals9%, so just after the finals, Green was traded away by the Lakers, and then Green successively tossed and turned Thunder, 76ers, Raptors, Grizzlies, Cavaliers and other teams, this season Green found a job in Philadelphia again, but Philadelphia had to cut Green in order to make room in the Harden trade, and then it depends on whether there is a team to provide Green with a chance after the trade deadline.
Third place: Howard, Finals 28 points 28 rebounds, now: Idle at home!
After the finals, the Lakers did not renew the news of the Monster, seeing that the offseason was about to pass, Howard had to join Philadelphia and Embiid to form a team with a base salary, and when he returned to the Lakers in the 21-22 season, Howard burst into tears in the signing session, but unfortunately he was abandoned by the Lakers again after the season, and the Warcraft, who had no ball to play, went overseas to join the Taoyuan Clouded Leopards of the Taiwan T1 League, where Howard's anticlimactic performance was also indescribable.
When Howard Davis clashed, no one was on Howard's side.
No. 4: McGee, who didn't play in the Finals, is now: The Kings are averaging 46 points!
McGee didn't get a chance to play in the finals, so McGee was also abandoned by the Lakers early in the offseason, and then McGee went to the Raptors, Cavaliers, Nuggets, Suns, Mavericks and other teams, and is now 36 years old and averages 4 per game in the Kings6 points 29 rebounds, and the annual salary is $3.19 million veteran base salary.
5th place: Caruso, 6th in the finals3 points, now: Bulls 101 point!
After winning the championship, Caruso's value skyrocketed, and Caruso threw 40 in the next 21 season1% three-point shooting rate, due to the explosion of the ball style, the fans gave him the title of "bald mamba", so that the Lakers' base salary naturally could not keep him, and in the summer of 2021, the Bulls offered 36.98 million ** for 4 years, and after the Lakers did not react, Caruso left directly.
Caruso's style and appearance are very different.
6th place: Pope, 128 points, now: The Nuggets are averaging 10 points per game!
In the finals, Pope was the third scorer after James and thick eyebrows, so just after the end of the season, the Lakers reached a 3-year 39 million contract extension with Pope, but the Lakers actually traded Pope and Kuzima and others for Westbrook, which was a terrible deal.
No. 7: Horton Tucker, who did not play in the Finals, is averaging 10 per game for the Jazz9 points!
In the 2020 Finals, Tucker did not get a chance to play, but in the next 21 seasons, Tucker grew rapidly and was touted by fans and even regarded as the cornerstone of the team, so in the summer of 2021, the Lakers also gave Tucker a 3-year 30.78 million contract, but Tucker's state plummeted after the contract arrived, so he was traded away by the Lakers at the end of the 22 season.
The second-round pick was seen as the future of the team.
8th place: Kuzma, 8th in the finals5 points, now: Wizards are averaging 22 points per game!
Kuzma averaged 18 per game in '187 points, after James and thick eyebrows came in, Kuzma's statistics slipped to 128 points, 21 season Kuzma 12The 9 points still didn't improve, so in the summer of '21, the Lakers traded Kuzma, Pope, Harrell and a first-round pick No. 22 from the Wizards to Westbrook, and Kuzma quickly averaged 21. per game with the Wizards2 points 72 rebounds and 3With 7 assists, Kuzma has improved to an average of 22 points per game this season, and Kuzma has also signed a four-year contract with 10.2 billion US dollars, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise!
Kuzma doesn't have the big contract he has now if he stays with the Lakers.
As for J.R. Smith announcing his retirement after winning the championship, Dudley retiring after the 21st season, and Markieff Morris averaged 26 points with a base salary of 2.9 million, Wieters is no one after the end of the 20 season, Quinn Cook has not been able to come back after leaving the league in 21 years, and the Lakers signed a total of 27 players on 10-day short-term contracts that season, and now only James and Davis are left!
