It is very difficult to retire the jersey, and it is necessary to contribute a lot to the team, have strong self-strength, and have enough influence in the league before it is possible to retire the jersey. To be able to retire the jersey, it must have been successful, and ordinary stars are not qualified for this. But today, these 4 people, with strong strength and many honors, basically locked in the Hall of Fame seats, but unfortunately, they may not be able to retire their jerseys. Who are the four of them, let's get to know each other, and after reading my analysis, you may agree with my point of view.
Leonard is certainly a Hall of Fame star, he's still a top 75 player, but it's hard to retire his jersey. He was Duncan's successor to the Spurs, but he had a very unpleasant fall out with the team in the later period, and his departure led to the disintegration of the team, which the Spurs have not let go of to this day. The Raptors won the championship, he is the FMVP, and he is also the hero of the team's history. However, after only 1 year, Leonard is a mercenary role, and he has no feelings for the team, so it is unlikely. Finally, now the Clippers, perennial truce, the owner is already dissatisfied, and the best record is the playoffs. Leonard can only be retired if he wins the championship, otherwise the team will not give him a retired jersey.
Paul is strong with the team, he is a playoff guarantee, and he has played in the Finals. In terms of honor, he is very fulfilling as a point guard, 5 assists king, 6 steals king, strong offense, strong defense, and personal strength is undoubted. The pinnacle belongs to the Hornets, but the team has been changed to the Pelicans, without Paul's imprint. Rockets, Suns, Thunder, that's mercenaries, and there's nothing to achieve, don't think about it. Finally, there is the Warriors, even if they win the championship, it is only a piece of the championship puzzle, the playing time is not enough, the team brand is not enough, unless it helps the team win two consecutive championships, otherwise it will not be able to retire the jersey.
Rose's peak belongs to the Bulls, and his MVP is won by the Bulls. But Rose was not in the Bulls for a long time, and his peak was short, and Rodman did not retire after three consecutive championships, and it was even more difficult for Rose. As for the other teams, they are almost qualified starters, and then they are average role players. He's just playing in the NBA, and he can't talk about any team contributions. As the youngest MVP in history, it is still a little embarrassing that no team has retired their jerseys in the end.
Irving has a championship, an All-Star regular, is popular, and is also a top scorer in the league. He has played for the Cavaliers, Celtics, Nets, Mavericks, Celtics and Nets for a short time, and there is no hope for a record that will not be achieved. The Mavericks are supporting Doncic, and it is not known how long they can play in the future, which is extremely unlikely. Finally, there is the Cavaliers, who led the team to a miserable record, all kinds of champion signings, and personal honors can't be won, he is at most a team celebrity, but he can't reach the level of retired jerseys.
