Retirement tour + impact championship! Paul helps Harden realize his dream, Kabir Jr. may return to the All-Star

The Clippers once again became the "offseason champion", strengthening all positions that need to be upgraded. The point guard position, adding Hall of Fame-level point guard Chris Paul, solved the problem of Harden not having a substitute. As the shooting guard position, All-Star player Bill replaced Powell, which has improved a higher level and scored more comprehensively. Collins is at the position of power forward at 20+10 and is only 27 years old, which solves the problem that the Clippers have not had a serious power forward for many years. Zubac, 28, is at the peak of his career, and the team also helped him find a champion substitute Lopez.

The team left behind four regular rotations last season, Dunn, Bogdan Bogdanovic, Batum and Derek Jones, which ensured the team's lineup depth this summer. In this way, the Clippers have as many as 11 rotation players, including Paul, Harden, Bill, Ka Jr., Collins, Zubac, Jones, Dunn, Bogdan, Daluo, and Batum. The Clippers president said that although the team's lineup is relatively old, our depth is strong enough.

The Clippers are worth looking forward to next season. On the one hand, there are many stars and a thick lineup, and they are fully capable of hitting the championship. On the other hand, Paul's joining has filled the fans' feelings. It has been confirmed that Paul will wear the No. 3 jersey for retirement tour, which will be the focus of every game. Hawks star Trae Young said: Retire this jersey during the retirement tour! Since Paul chose the Clippers, the latter also strongly invited him to join, which shows that the two sides communicated about retirement tour and retirement of jerseys. It is said that when the team introduced Paul, they consulted Harden and Kat for their opinions, and they expressed a warm welcome.

However, retirement tour will not affect the team's pace of winning the championship. For Paul, this is also the last chance in his career. With his professional attitude, he will inevitably give 100% of his condition to help the team, and it is also for himself.

Paul's arrival once again joined forces with Harden, and it felt like the next day. The scene of the Light Bulb Group fighting the Warriors back then is still vivid in my mind. If it weren't for Paul's injury, they might have realized their dream of winning the championship. Since the two sides separated, Harden has been to the Nets and the 76ers to the Clippers, and his best record is the second round of the playoffs. Paul played for the Thunder, Suns, Warriors, Spurs and Clippers. During the Suns, he touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals and even reached the finals, but lost to the Bucks. Now that both of them are about to retire, it is indeed sad and touching to form a team to realize their dreams again.

Paul played 82 games with the Spurs last season and still averaged 7 assists per game. When Harden left the court, Paul could fully support the team's organizational responsibility and give Harden enough rest time. For teams formed by veteran stars, it is wise to accumulate strength in the regular season and show the best state in the playoffs.

With the fantasy point guard combination of Paul and Harden, Ka and Bill are quite happy. Last season's Xiaoka made a comeback in the middle of the season, playing 37 games, and averaged 21.5 points, 5.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists per game, shooting percentage of 49.8% and three-point shooting percentage of 41.1%, which is enough to show that his competitive state is still online. Xiao Ka is in good health this summer and has been training. His condition in the new season will return to a better level. There is hope that after a season, he will be selected as the All-Star again.

Since Bill joined the Clippers, he has been widely discussed that his scoring will explode next season. Before joining the Suns, he scored more than 20 points all year round, and even scored 30+ in two seasons. With the Suns, who have Durant and Booker, they still average about 18 points per game. With Paul and Harden, the score is likely to be around 22 points, or even higher. As long as the team's record is in the top six in the Western Conference, Bill and Kat will have hope of returning to the All-Star in the new season. So, is the probability of Harden being selected as an All-Star? It may be very small, because he will definitely sacrifice a lot of his attack and be willing to assist his teammates just for the coveted championship trophy.
