Clippers News: Harden s new contract is exposed, Green praises small card, draft goals are released

On May 15, three news came out of the Los Angeles Clippers. Fans who care about the Clippers should not miss it.

Harden's new contract is exposed

Today, according to US reporter Zach Barkley, sources revealed that Clippers star James Harden is expected to break out of the contract this year's offseason and sign a two-year, $7,500,000 contract with the Clippers again. In this year's regular season, Harden performed well, playing 79 games, averaging 35.3 minutes per game to contribute 22.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 8.7 assists and 1.5 steals. He scored 50 points in a single game and returned to the All-Star after three years. In the playoffs, Harden's performance was not stable enough, and he played two good games and contributed again two bad games that were remembered by the blacks and trolls, averaging 18.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, 9.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 1 block.

Some fans may not understand this renewal amount. After all, Harden is almost 36 years old and is not trustworthy in the playoffs, so why should he keep him at such a high price? The author believes that there are two reasons: 1. Although Harden's performance in the playoffs is a bit disappointing, his regular season performance and bottom-up ability are remarkable. The Clippers need him to lead the team to achieve considerable results in the regular season; 2. There are not many more suitable substitutes on the market this offseason. If the Clippers do not show sincerity, they may face the risk of losing Harden in vain. For Harden, he also figured it out at this stage of his career that the championship is hard to come by, and it is better to stay in his hometown to get a considerable income.

Green praised Xiaoka

Today, former NBA player Danny Green praised his old teammate Kawhi Leonard in a show called "Gil 's Arena". Green said: "When Leonard first entered the league, he didn't know how to shoot, and now this has become his killer move. This progress is incredible. Without any injury, Leonard would likely win two championships and one MVP, and then compete for one of the best players in history." Green has been teammates with Leonard in the Spurs and Raptors, and the two have won two championships together.

' remarks about Green have aroused heated discussions among many fans at home and abroad. Some people said, "Stop bragging. Leonard doesn't even make the top three active players. What competition is the best in history. Moreover, excluding injuries is a false proposition. After all, maintaining healthy and sufficient attendance is also the reason why those top superstars are so successful." Some people said, "Green's point of view is no problem. Leonard has good offense and defense, and has even had a single-core championship feat. If he can accumulate a few more championships and personal honors, he will indeed have the chance to be one of the best in history." So what do you think about this?

Draft goals were released

Not long ago, each team held a lottery ceremony and determined their respective lottery picks for 25 years. Today, ESPN experts made predictions based on the needs of each team, among which the Clippers, which hold the No. 30 pick in the first round of this year, are expected to choose Arkansas's Adutilo. Tyro, 21, is 2.03m tall, weighs 102kg, and has an arm span of 2.13m. He plays as a power forward on the court. This past season, Tyro has averaged 15.1 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.6 steals per game in NCAA, with three shooting percentages of 55%, 26% and 68%.

Tiro's advantages are that he is decisive in the offensive end, good at manual work, and knows how to use his physical advantages to punish misalignment; he has strong confrontation on the defensive end and fast horizontal movement, and can defend from the 3rd position to the 5th position, and is willing to do some dirty and tiring work. The disadvantage is that the shooting on the offensive end is unstable, and the defensive end likes gambling blocks and steals, and is prone to foul trouble. For the Clippers, if they are not traded in the first round of this year, then choosing Tyro is indeed a good choice, which can improve the team's lack of players at the No. 4 position to a certain extent. Of course, the premise of all this is that Clippers coach Tyron Lu dares to use new players, otherwise even the best uncooked jade will be ruined.
