229 million in 4 years! Paul switched to the Clippers, and he became the most beneficial person

$3.6 million in 1 year, Chris Paul returns to the Los Angeles Clippers after 8 years.

What does Paul mean to the Clippers? Paul made 4047 passes and converted 605 assists in season 24-25. Just look at the number of assists, look at the data comparison of the group:

1, Trae Young's value is 880 times;

2, Halliburton's value is 673 times;

3, Cunningham's value is 638 times.

In fact, Paul and Trae Young are the only six players with a total assist of no less than 600 times this season. Speaking of this, let’s take a look at the comparison of the efficiency of group passing conversion assists.

1. Paul converts 1 assist per 6.7 passes;

2. Jokic converts 1 assist per 7.5 passes;

3. James converts 1 assist per 7.0 passes.

The connection still has the top level of the league, Paul is getting more and more demons as he grows older. Taking 51.8% of the CET rate, Durant's 53.7% is higher than that. Of course, Paul's 130 mid-range shots are not a big sample, but this is not important. What is important is that the offensive end will not put the team in a "4-on-5" situation.

efficient tandem + stable ending, it is obvious that Paul can make the Clippers' substitute offensive firepower increase linearly. In fact, if you effectively overcome injuries, I think the Clippers' substitute firepower is the only one among the championship teams such as the Thunder, the Knicks, and the Nuggets.

To put it more, the Clippers' overall substitute shooting rate in the 24-25 season was 45.3%, ranking 12th in the league. The foundation is already good, and will there be many changes in personnel this summer?

At the same time, according to the NBA China official website, Daron Fox and the Spurs reached a four-year, $229 million contract renewal.

For Fox, I think it is the person who benefited the most after Paul switched to the Clippers.

First, position. After being traded by the Kings to the Spurs in the 24-25 season, Fox made 17 appearances in total for 578 minutes, accounting for 57% of the playing time, which was the highest since his career. You should know that Fox accounts for 96% of his career and plays No. 1 position.

Apparently, Paul's existence squeezed Fox into the second position. Now with the former leaving the team, Fox will return to No. 1.

How much impact does the number one and number two have on Fox?

1. The real shooting rate when playing No. 1 position is 57%. For comparison, Doncic's value during the Lakers' period was 59%, Edwards' value was 60%,

2, and the real shooting rate when playing the second position was 53%. For comparison, Clarkson's value is 54%, and Cole Anthony's value is 53%. Both are known for their inefficiency.

Obviously, whether you are good at playing the No. 1 position has a great impact on Fox. To be precise, the difference between efficient and inefficient.

Second, big contract. This summer, Chett and Jewe have received a large contract of more than $200 million, but they are different from the two who just won the championship with the team and are the main core of the team. If Paul does not transfer to the Clippers, I think the Spurs will also renew their contract with Fox, but the amount will definitely not be 229 million in 4 years.

To put it bluntly, from the fact that the number one position is given up to play the number two, Paul's priority is obviously higher than Fox in the eyes of the Spurs management.

Relatively speaking, I think the first point is the main reason.

If you want to get a big contract, you must first have enough hard power. For this, Fox is very different. Secondly, you must have the opportunity to get a big contract. If Paul doesn't leave the team, Fox will still play the No. 2 position that he is not good at. In this way, the chances are relatively less great.

Finally, I wish Fox a good performance in the new season.
