- Thinks he’s a Tier 1 point guard in the league (freaking lol)
- Demands to be paid at least $25 mill per year.
- Rejects a very generous 4 years $84 million contract half way through the season.
- Gets COVID and publicly admits he wasn’t getting vaccinated (great role model there)
- Spends his times Twitch streaming and on his YouTube channel.
- Antics in the Lockeroom.
- Throws one GIANT donut in a pivotal Game 5 against the Suns.
- Thinks he’s worth $30 mill per after the season ended (oh my freaking god lol)
He thought he had the Lakers by the balls and tried to squeeze it as hard as humanly possible. But in the end, he alienated himself from the Lakers organization and its fan base, and all of the NBA world witnessed it. And instead, the Lakers replaced him with a future hall of famer and the backup in with Dunn who you could even argue is an upgrade over Schroder too…at $5 mill per year for 2 years.
Congratulations Schroder, you played yourself. At least your name will now forever be used as a great, cautionary tale for all other future free agents. The term “Don’t Schroder yourself” be used very commonly somewhere down the line.
Nunn over Dunn but on target.
The way it ended, if Schroder asked for 10/2, Pelinka would pass and pickup Nunn. Schroder was sick a cancer. Too bad Kuzma was part of the Schroder issue and had to be traded.
