On March 2, Beijing time, the league is not lacking in young stars, after all, there are a lot of talented young players, and a draft will be held every year, and some rookie players can shine in the rookie season, but if you want to be selected as an All-Star, you need a certain amount of accumulation. This season is no exception, Maxi has become an All-Star player, and the number of career scoring records broken in a single game is countless, and it is precisely Maxi's performance that is getting better and better to increase his market value. What's more, Maxey's rookie contract is about to expire, which means that Maxey has reached a critical moment to renew his contract. Five years 2100 million, returning to the 76ers, Maxey pursues a super top salary, but Philadelphia is in a dilemma.
Just like when he played against the Hornets, Maxey handed over 33 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, and his playing time increased to about 40 minutes. What's more, with the retirement of the leader Embiid from injury, the players around Maxey have become Lowry and Hield, as well as Harris and Bamba, which means that Maxey has gradually become the tactical core of Philadelphia. And after this game, Maxi also broke the league all-time record. You must know that in the entire history of the league, there are not many players who have delivered 33 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in a single game, but on the premise of getting this kind of data, only Maxey can make five three-pointers and not make a single mistake. Moreover, in the regular season this season, Philadelphia only won 8 of the 26 games led by Maxey single-core, and it can only be said that after losing Embiid, Philadelphia does lack some competitiveness.
Seeing that the team lost its competitiveness, Philadelphia began to operate again, directly reinforcing Hilton, and Lowry did not hesitate to defect to Philadelphia when he completed the buyout. This is also the reason why Philadelphia has been able to achieve 4 wins and 6 losses in the last 10 games, and it can be said that no matter what angle you analyze it, Philadelphia has found the right direction. And the opponents who defeated these four times were the Cavaliers and Wizards, as well as the Hornets. But Philadelphia had a competitive team, but they couldn't compete with it. When facing the Green Army head-on, he lost by 18 points, and when he faced the Bucks and Warriors head-on, he was blown out by the opponent by more than 20 points, which is a sign that Maxey cannot become the future leader of Philadelphia at all, and can only assume the role of the second leader.
So far this season, Maxey has helped the team in a total of 54 games, handing over 26 points and 38 rebounds and 6With 3 assists per game, the two shooting percentages are 44% and 38%, but the net efficiency value is mid-range. This means that the premise for Maxi to get gorgeous data is because he has more power. After all, Maxey has more than 20 shots and 8 three-point shots this season, which are the league's top shots. And Maxey has also been fighting in the league for three years, and it was supposed to get a contract extension after playing last season, and Haliburton and Ball in the same class have both received the maximum salary contract, and the annual salary has also reached the level of 40 million. But in the hearts of Philadelphia management, Maxey's value cannot reach this level, which is why Maxey cannot get an early contract extension, once the season is over, Maxey does not get a contract extension, then it will be a test of the free market.
Coincidentally, in the All-Star competition, Maxey was successfully selected, and if he managed to make the best team, he could get at least 2500 million to renew the five-year salary contract. Having said that, the reason why Maxi has been getting hotter and hotter lately is nothing more than hoping to get a high-salary contract, although the number of shots is very large, it is undeniable that the data is becoming more and more gorgeous. After all, the leader of the house is gone, and Maxi can only continue to improve his shooting power to have a chance to defeat his opponent. There is also a key factor, in the entire Philadelphia roster, those who still have contracts after playing this season are the big enemies and Reed, and the teammates around them have expired contracts. Philadelphia is undoubtedly poised to build a three-core roster through a huge salary contract. has already thrown an olive branch to George before, which is nothing more than to form a three-core lineup of George and Embiid and Maxey.
If Philadelphia really let Maxi get 2100 million to renew a five-year salary contract, then Philadelphia's salary space will become very small, and it will not be able to recruit supergiants. If Maxi and Philadelphia can't continue to join forces, Maxey can enter the free market smoothly, and at least he can get 1600 million to renew the contract for four years, and then defect to the Magic. Therefore, Philadelphia has no choice but to let Maxi stay with the team, but Maxi and Philadelphia also have disagreements, that is, the salary of the contract extension between the two parties has not been determined, to put it bluntly, Philadelphia is unwilling to give Maxi 2100 million to renew the five-year salary contract. But then again, a player like Ball who is constantly injured can get 2100 million to renew the five-year salary contract, then Maxi has no reason not to get it, and only analyzing personal strength, Maxi is also better.
Now for Philadelphia, it is either through huge salary space to recruit supergiants, and through the way of cap extensions, Maxi can get the maximum salary contract as he wishes. After all, the Spurs have done this kind of thing before, and in 14 years, Xiaoka did not get an early contract extension, and the Spurs turned around and recruited Aldridge, and then let Xiaoka get a super contract extension, and in this kind of operation, the Spurs directly spent about 10 million less. In fact, Maxi can be regarded as taking the initiative to make concessions, and Maxi can originally pursue 2500 million to renew a five-year salary contract, but now only want to get 2100 million renewed for five years. You must know that in the case of Embiid's injury, Maxey will definitely be able to greatly improve the data, and it is also a critical moment to increase the market value.
