Harden is missing one person to win the championship!

The Clippers have always been a traffic team during the offseason and are jokingly called the "offseason champion" by fans. This year's offseason is no exception. The Clippers' management is smart in their small abacus and can be said to have done the ultimate goal of "spend small money to do big things". First, he used the temptation of the championship to play the emotional card and kept Harden as the core of the team building in the new season. Harden, a honest man, also took the initiative to cut his salary again and left a sufficient middle-class space for the Clippers' team to strengthen the Clippers. While this made the Clippers management happy, it quickly began a tax avoidance and reinforcement plan.

A group of veterans who have proved themselves in the league were recruited under the Clippers because of Harden's personal charm. In order to win the championship with Harden, these veterans gave up some of their interests and let go of their years of estrangement from each other gathered in Los Angeles. The power forward position, which has always been criticized, finally became stronger instantly due to the arrival of Collins, and Zubac also welcomed the champion center substitute Lopez, who is more experienced than himself. Bill's joining is more like loading missiles on the Clippers. Bill brought his offensive talent to the Clippers, and his offense, which had been poor and extremely unstable last season, instantly upgraded.

The biggest gain is the return of the old captain Paul. Because Paul's joining the Clippers have two high-power engines. The speed immediately flew up. Paul's steady organization will completely release Harden's offensive talent, and Leonard also returned to the familiar small forward position because of Collins' arrival. The "machine card" that made the opponent terrified is back!

Everything seems to be heading in the right direction. Unfortunately, the clouds enveloped the Clippers. The league is not optimistic about the Clippers after strengthening. Even the Clippers were not involved in the Christmas battle that was broadcast across the United States. Because the Clippers are too old, they can't even get interested in the league. The league's worries are not unreasonable. Thinking about Leonard's past makes people shudder and have no interest.

Although Harden and Paul became "model workers" last season, Paul played all the regular season games as the main force. Even more powerful than some young players. Even so, facing the Clippers, which have two known as "Glass Man", Bill and Leonard, not only are the fans unsure, but even the league has no confidence! This will also become a fatal hidden danger to the Clippers in the new season.

And the current Clippers show that they have the strength to win the championship, but they are still one important candidate to win the championship, that is, the Clippers have no "ruthless people"! Leonard is withdrawn and doesn't like to cause trouble. Harden has a gentle personality and is a good person.

The scene of being deterred by Nuggets Gordon alone in the Clippers' team last season is still vivid in my mind. All teams who have won the championship need a ruthless person to suppress the arrogance of their opponents and referees. Look at Rodman beside Jordan, look at Green beside Curry, look at Dort beside Alexander, the new champion Thunder, and even Jokic beside Gordon!

The team has "ruthless people" so that they will not be bullied or despised, and the team will be bloody. The Clippers have been "falling off" because of their lack of such "ruthless people". If you want to say that the Clippers have the potential to be ruthless, Dunn is the only one who can say that. Dunn's fierce defense and fierce steals have already made his opponent afraid.

It's just that Dunn didn't get the team's training and took action too "clean". If the team can specially train Dunn to have a bigger and dirty defensive move on the court, the Clippers will also have their own "ruthless man". By then, the championship that Harden has been waiting for for many years may be easily won. Wish Harden good luck to usher in his "ruthless role"!
