It is impossible to guarantee a ring to any player. The final series are brutal. Games can be unexpected. Even the safest choice can sometimes surprise you. Bottom line: you can never know for sure who is going to win. Unless it’s Dion Waiters in 2020.
The bartenders will receive an NBA championship ring, regardless of who wins the series. Circumstances have brought him to this moment and it is the best scenario for a player. Waiters signed with the Lakers on March 6 and has been with the team in the bubble. He started the season with (you guessed it) the Miami Heat.
So in the eyes of the league, he was part of both the Heat and the Lakers this season, which guaranteed him a ring no matter what. There is also the possibility of getting paid twice. Every NBA player who is part of the playoffs earns a portion of a stipend that is set aside as a reward for reaching the postseason. Some of this money is reserved for the team’s support staff and players who are no longer on the team. The idea is that the people who make up a team’s success could still be rewarded, even if the company sends them elsewhere.
Now, it’s not clear which Heat players will vote to give the Waiters part of this group, but the possibility exists. I choose to believe that they will, just because it’s so much better this way. The idea that Waiters can win a ring no matter what, and that both teams pay him off in the NBA Finals is the kind of dream we should all support.
Sure, as a kid, you might have imagined hitting the winning shot in Game 7 to give your team a title, but for my money, there’s nothing better than putting yourself in a position to win a ring no matter what, and you both get paid. teams. Win by default is the true sign of greatness. If I was an NBA player, I would try to figure out how to play for all teams, at least once in my career, just to hedge my bets and get a ring.
In fact, this is my open plea to the National Basketball Association: I would like a 2021 NBA championship ring. I don’t think this is asking for much. This is my proposal:
- Each team signs me a 1-day, 1-dollar contract. We can end all of this during training camp.
- Just cut me off for detrimental team behavior or some other excuse. Signing a contract with a writer is detrimental to the team in its own right, so it has a built-in excuse.
- After receiving my NBA Championship Ring from any team that wins the title next year, I will make a donation of $ 1,000 to a charity chosen by the winning team.
Everyone wins! Especially me.
