3.6 million US dollars per year! The first person in history! Paul s last dance, he will finish his chosen road even if he kneels down.

NBA new season training camp is about to begin, and 30 teams in the league are ready to go, some are happy and some are worried! Take the West for example. The wild pattern is still there. Every traditional giant team such as the Lakers and the Warriors has a difficult lesson to recite. Young teams such as the Rockets and the Thunder are the real giants to compete for the championship! The Los Angeles Clippers spared no effort to build a sunset red warship, which was once highly expected. The old gun Paul returned to the air-connected city and joined forces with Harden to fill his feelings, but what happened? From the moment the storm of Xiaoka Yin-Yang contract broke out, the Clippers' plan was completely disrupted, and the journey of the new season was destined to be in danger!

1 USD 3.6 million, Paul became the first person in history, and he won the king and lost the enemy. Champion is the lifelong pursuit of countless stars, and it is also directly related to the star's reputation and historical status. Looking at the history of NBA for more than 70 years, there are 4 stars in the league who scored more than 3,000 points in the playoffs but have not won the championship. They are Karl Malone (4,761 points), Harden (3,895 points), Baylor (3,623 points) and Westbrook (3,035 points), all of which are considered uncrowned kings. In addition, the closest star in the league to this list is old Paul. According to statistics from the NBA official website, Paul's total score in his playoff career was 2,981 points, only 19 points away from "3,000 points but no championship star club".

This year's offseason, Paul announced early that the new season will be the last dance of his personal career! Paul is regarded as the perfect puzzle for many championship teams, but he eventually reached a one-year, $3.6 million veteran minimum salary contract with the Clippers. According to statistics from the NBA official website, this is the first time Paul has accepted a basic salary contract in his career. In another statistics, the new season will be Paul's 21st season in his career. He became the first point guard in NBA history to compete for 21 seasons, unprecedented! For Paul, returning to his hometown, the most peak of his NBA career, ending his NBA career is to get close to home, and on the other hand, it is also a great honor! More importantly, the Clippers have a stable lineup such as Harden, Kat, Zubac, etc., and he can retain hope for the championship while enjoying the last dance!

The Yin-Yang contract storm of the small card, the Clippers are in trouble, and the Clippers not only signed the old cannon Paul, but they also successively introduced elite soldiers such as Collins, Lopez, and Bills to improve the depth of the lineup and build the oldest team in NBA history. According to statistics from the NBA official website, four Clippers are over 35 years old, and eight are over 30 years old. The average age of the main lineup is as high as 33.2 years old, breaking the NBA record held by the Jazz in the 2000-01 season (32 years old). They have become the oldest team in history in the NBA. The Clippers are old, but they are enough to send out two starting lineups, which is why many people think that the Light Bulb combination can assist small cards in the new season to win the championship.

The ideal is full, but the reality is cruel. The Clippers have not yet set sail, but they are destroyed by the storm of Xiaoka's Yin-Yang contract. According to previous reports by US media, Xiao Kabai took Aspiration's 28 million US endorsement contract + US$20 million equity, while Clippers boss Ballmer invested 118 million US dollars in the company, suspected of evading the salary cap and is facing investigation by the NBA league. I don't know how Xiao Hua will punish the Clippers and Xiao Ka in the end, but Xiao Ka's approach to taking the stakes has long aroused the anger of both people and gods in the whole league, and the Clippers' money and willfulness and ignore the rules has also made the NBA face a crisis of trust. To take a step back, Xiao Ka is already 34 years old. It is entirely possible for the Clippers to take this as an opportunity to cut him. The Clippers' locker room is naturally disintegrating and it is difficult to achieve success!

Paul danced for the last time, and he had to walk the road he chose, and he had to die before he could succeed, which made the hero cry! I don't deny that the Clippers' veterans will do their best to maintain the stability of the locker room. I don't doubt Paul's leadership at all, but we must also admit the fact that Paul is 41 years old and he is no longer the one who decides the team's prospects for the championship! NBA legend Charmos pointed out incisively: Whether it is together or separated, Paul and Harden's teams will always go wrong at critical moments! But then again, a true strong man never complains about the overall environment, but faces new challenges. As for the championship, he must sometimes have his destiny, and don’t force him if he has no destiny! For Paul, since he chose to return to the last dance of the Clippers, he might be ready to "no championship for life". This is the path Paul himself chose. No matter how sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty they are, they will have to walk on their knees. Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
