Who is the biggest signing of the Clippers this summer? Not Paul Bill, the 27-year-old may make Harden s little card crazy

The Clippers held a press conference for Paul, and the fans on the scene were crazy about it, shouting CP3 loudly, and they didn't stop for a long time. After hearing the fans' shouts, Paul lowered his head and sobbed, and after a long time he raised his head and looked around. Yes, Chris Paul is back, back where he has fought for six seasons. I didn't know why he chose to leave at the beginning, but maybe he had a disagreement with Griffin. It has been a long time, so there is no need to mention the past again. The current scene makes fans look forward to the arrival of the new season. When Paul stands in the field wearing the No. 3 Clippers jersey, will everyone be in a daze?

At the press conference, Paul answered many questions, about the Clippers, Harden, Xiaoka, winning the championship in the new season, etc. When the host asked: Will the 25-26 season be your last season? Paul replied, I don’t know yet, I will think while I’m playing. This also gives fans new expectations, and we see that Paul's playing time may be extended. This is also good news for the Clippers. Paul's experience and ability are very important for the team to strive for the championship.

Although Paul has a great role, he is 40 years old after all, and his 20-minute playing time in a game is the most suitable, and his physical strength and athletic ability are not enough to support the intensity of the whole game. In addition to the arrival of the old captain, the joining of Bill, the former Wizards' number one star, is also very important for the Clippers to hit the championship. This team currently lacks the explosive power of scoring in a short period of time. Harden, who has experienced major injuries, is no longer a scoring expert in the league. It is difficult to hit the opponent at critical moments and save the team. Xiao Ka, who returned from injury, lost weight due to his body due to his knee pressure, and his singles efficiency has dropped greatly. The once unsolvable mid-range shot is also very effective. Of course, these two scorers the Clippers could count on last season.

Bill's arrival solved this problem to a certain extent. The 32-year-old Bill is in his year of playing and has not suffered a major injury in his career. The fundamental reason why he did not play with the Suns is that the system and the stars overlap. Now that we are by Harden's side, the explosive power of the score will definitely be regained, which makes us look forward to it very much.

Are Paul and Bill the Clippers' biggest signings this summer? I'm afraid not. Do you still remember how the Clippers lost to the Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs last season? I just can't defend against Gordon. In the 4th position, Katum, Batum, and Derek Jones Jr. had no choice. So, the biggest weak ring of the Clippers is the No. 4 position. So the team traded Powell to the Heat, bringing 27-year-old Collins from the Jazz. This deal solved two major problems of the team. The first is that there is a real power forward. Last season in the Jazz, Collins averaged 19 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block, with a three-point shooting percentage of 39.9%. He is an extremely outstanding space power forward and has excellent rebounding skills.

The second is to let the little card return to the 3rd position, which is the position that the little card is most familiar with and is best at. Whether in the Spurs or the Raptors, Xiao Ka played as a small forward, but when the Clippers were forced to play as a power forward, the risk of injury increased, his personal efficiency also declined. So, Collins' signings are extremely correct and effective.

Xiaoka also said in an interview with reporters that he was excited and crazy about Collins' arrival. The Clippers' operations president also said that the arrival of Collins can allow Xiaoka to switch back and forth between the 3rd and 4th positions, and Collins can also play in the 4th and 5th positions. This is also crazy good news for Harden, as Collins can be the next Capela. The pick-and-roll between Zubac and Harden is now perfect, but unfortunately Zubac's athletic ability is weak, far less than Collins' bounce and speed. Next season, it will be common for Paul and Harden to get all-match dunks with Collins.

27-year-old Collins will earn $26.58 million next season, which is also his contract year. As long as you show your own characteristics in the Clippers, tomorrow Xia will definitely sign a contract renewal with the Clippers for many years.
