Is Lillard, who was cut by the team, the worst NBA 75 superstar? The two great gods disagree
9:38pm, 3 July 2025【Basketball】
NBA75 superstar? Lillard was stigmatized as a lifelong shame: Just after the NBA draft, big news about the transfer market came:
Milwaukee Bucks cut Damian Lillard, the number one outside star.
Lillard switched from the Trail Blazers to the Bucks two years ago and formed a partner with Antetokounmpo. But after two seasons, it did not achieve the success the team expected. Last season (24-25 season), Lillard suffered a deep vein thrombosis in his right calf after playing 58 regular season games and had a month off; but in the third game after his comeback in the playoffs, he suffered a tear of his left Achilles tendon and was reimbursed for the season. When Lillard was laid off, he was still working to recover. As a result, people sit at home, and disaster comes from heaven - his team doesn't want him anymore.
Of course, the money you should get is not a penny: Lillard and the Bucks have two years left in the contract, and the Bucks will defer the remaining $113 million in salary, which will be distributed to the next five seasons.
In addition, Lillard, who has now become a free agent, is still very popular in the transfer market, and it is said that NBA teams that have become interested in him have exceeded double digits.
However, compared to the fortune and future, Lillard is a member of the 75 superstars officially selected by the NBA. The shameful label "cut by the team" Lillard will never be torn off, and this is the most deadly thing.
But is Lillard the NBA 75 superstar who is doing the worst now? I'm afraid it's not yet.
Forced to retire! Melon Anthony from darling to abandoned child:
Although it is quite shameful to be abandoned by the Bucks, at least Lillard is likely to still play the ball.
Anthony, who is also a top star in the NBA 75, has retired for two years.
Recalling back then, Anthony entered the NBA with James and Wade in the same year, the performance of "Melon" in the early stage was not inferior to the other two.
"Occurrence Kaleidoscope" became famous, and the Blue No. 15 Nuggets jersey was out of stock. Anthony was the favorite of the league at that time.
Leaving the Nuggets to join the Knicks, Anthony is still the boss of the team.
But when he left the Knicks to join the Thunder, Anthony's downhill began - he became the second leader and even the third brother around Westbrook (George played very well at the time).
He said he was not used to being a deputy in the Thunder, but he went to the Rockets a year later and was almost forced to retire. At this time, he was already trapped in self-doubt. People also began to understand: the era that belonged to Anthony is over, and he is like a useless person now, and the team that wants a championship will not want his current one.
Then the Trail Blazers briefly recovered their second spring, and then went to the Lakers who were in charge of James - seeing the old friend who competed for the best rookie with him in the past has become higher and higher achievements, but he has reached the end of his career. I wonder what the feeling of Melon is?
After the Lakers "hadow" for two seasons, although Anthony still became an omnipotent "honeymelon" in the offseason, he was unable to wait for a new contract.
Finally, Anthony, who has been selected as one of the 75 superstars and is obviously still in the battle, was forced to voluntarily announce his retirement. There is no retirement tour, no farewell at the stadium, just a simple video determines everything.
From the darling to the abandoned child, this 75 superstar seems to be a little worse than Lillard.
By the way, I haven't said everything before: between leaving the Thunder and joining the Lakers, Anthony was traded by the Hawks and the Bulls, and then immediately cut them.
Displaced! MVP Westbrook is in Pingyang:
If Anthony has retired, there is still an active 75 superstar who can compete with Lillard: Westbrook.
How might he be when he was the boss of the Thunder, he averaged a triple-double game and won the MVP directly in the season.
But after leaving the Thunder, he was just a passerby.
In fact, in the late stage of Thunder, he had been criticized by many people, and after leaving Thunder, he was even more harshly criticized and was made into jokes after joke.
He can't say that he wants to win a championship in his career, but it takes a little luck, and that's not the championship he will be the protagonist.
Latest news, Westbrook has decided to refuse to implement the player option for the 2025-26 season. Now he is no longer a Nuggets player, but a free agent.
Westbrook should be very confident in winning another good contract. But within 1-2 seasons, he is likely to follow Anthony's footsteps and be forced to retire. This is by no means exaggeration.
