8 of 12 shots and scored 24 points! Harden recruited strong support, and the Clippers books are in the same level as the Rockets

When the Rockets traded Westbrook, Harden has been involved. At that time, the Rockets were considered a favorite to win the championship, but unfortunately the final outcome was not as good as Harden wanted.

Now the Clippers are also a team that is capable of competing for the championship next season. They want to strengthen through the free agent market, and Bill has become the target.

Last season, the Suns defeated the Clippers by 3 points away. Bill performed well. He played 8 of 12 shots in 39 minutes and scored 24 points. He scored 7 points in the key overtime, which was a major contributor to the winning game. In that game, Durant scored 25 points, 7 rebounds, 3 steals and 1 attack.

Now Durant has left the Suns and becomes the core of the Rockets, and Bill has decided to break up with his old club.

Character Shams revealed that Bill has agreed to reach a buyout with the Suns and plans to join the Clippers after the clarification period is over. His new contract is $11 million for two years.

Harden recruited strong support for the Clippers, and he persuaded Bill to come and vote. Famous reporter Shams said on the show that Harden played a key role in recruiting Bill, and he also had direct conversations with Bill and the team. The Clippers believe that Bill will become a perfect match for Leonard and Harden, and he is the perfect candidate for the team's starting shooting guard position.

The US media showed the Clippers' ten-player rotation lineup. The starting five tigers: point guard Harden, shooting guard Bill, small forward Leonard, power forward Collins, center Zubac. The substitutes include Lopez, Jones, Batum, Bogdan and Dunn.

The Clippers have made many operations this offseason, first strengthening the inside and the front line, and now strengthening the back line. Some American media believe that the Clippers, who signed Bill, are already on the same level as the Rockets in terms of book strength. The only teams in the West that are stronger than the Clippers and Rockets are the Nuggets and the Thunder.

Previously, some fans hoped that the Rockets could sign Bills. To be honest, the Rockets are obviously not as attractive as the Clippers in terms of contracts or playing time.

The Rockets have no salary space after a series of operations, so they can only offer a basic salary. Obviously, Bill doesn't like it. The Rockets plan to let Amen serve as the team's shooting guard and there is no starting position to give Bill.

In addition, the Rockets head coach Uduka's coaching style is probably unacceptable to Bill. Chris Haynes, a famous reporter, once revealed that Budenholzer had a meeting with Bill. He told Bill that he hoped he could become the team's Zhu Holiday and work hard to defend. However, Bill was not buying it.

Rockets head coach Uduka attaches great importance to defense and cannot tolerate players who are unwilling to defend to stay on the court to play. Jaylen Green was repeatedly pressed on the bench at critical moments, and later he became the bargaining chip in the trade of Durant. Whitmore was also sent away by the deal.

The US media expects the Rockets to start the new season: point guard Van Jordan, shooting guard Amen, small forward Durant, power forward Jabbarri Smith Jr., and center Alperen Sengon. On the bench are Adams, Capela, Finney Smith, Tate and Shepard. There are also Jeff Green, Holiday Jr. and Tate on the bench. The Rockets still have two official contract quotas, and their current roster is only 13. The Rockets need to increase the roster to 14 before the start of the regular season. I wonder if General Manager Stone has a suitable contract signing candidate?
