Harden posted a message to celebrate! Paul made the decision and the NBA historical record was born!

7:18pm, 7 July 2025【Basketball】

July 7 is the date when NBA players can officially sign with the team. Most of the news previously exposed were verbal agreements. Three major events happened in the past night, related to super stars Harden, Chris Paul and Bill!

Harden posted a message to celebrate - the two-year $81.5 million contract was officially announced! Early in the morning, the Los Angeles Clippers officially announced that they had officially reached a two-year, $8,150,000 contract with the team's core point guard (James Harden)! Harden previously rejected the player option of $3635,000 next season. With his outstanding performance last season, Harden got the reward he deserved, and Harden himself also updated his social media as soon as possible to celebrate his big contract!

Not only that, Harden also received high praise from the Clippers president. As soon as the official announcement of the contract renewal was announced, Franck said: "Harden is the core of the team's organization and scorer, and he has taken a lot of pressure, but he has perfectly completed his on-field work. He proved how to play basketball in difficulties. At the same time, although Harden is a veteran, he has always improved himself and can also make his teammates better and lead the team to victory. This contract renewal is the reward that Harden deserves. We will continue to build a team around Harden!"

At first glance, Harden's contract is not small, but when it comes to closer inspection, it can maximize the interests of both parties! Although the Clippers renewed their contract for $81500 for two years (the base salary for the first year is $39.2 million, and the player option for the second year (the amount of the guaranteed part is $13.3 million)), signed Daluo (the 2-year, $18 million, the 2026-27 team option), and welcomed Batum (the 2-year, $11.5 million, the 2026-27 team option), they can still create $50-60 million in the summer of 2026. The team has maintained its competitiveness and has enough salary space next season, which is positive for both sides!

Paul makes a decision - next season is the last season of his personal career!

Free player Chris Paul participated in a podcast program today. The host asked incisively inquiring about Paul's plan to play for several seasons. Paul personally gave the answer, at most another year! In other words, next season will be the last dance of this person - the 12th All-Star, the 4th All-Team All-Team All-Team All-Team All-Team All-Team All-Team All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-Star All-S Before he knew it, Paul had played in the league for 20 seasons, and next season will be the 21st season of his career. As a real veteran, Paul played all 82 regular season games for the Spurs last season, drawing the oldest all-time record in NBA history, averaging 8.8 points and 7.4 assists per game, and his free throw shooting percentage reached a career high of 92.4%. His assist-and-turnover ratio is still third in the league. Although it cannot be compared with his peak period, Paul is more than enough to be a substitute for any team today.

Paul has been pursuing the championship he has always dreamed of. Now it depends on which team Paul will eventually join. Whether he can realize his dream of winning will be the last chance!

NBA historical record is born - after Lillard, it will also be bought out!

According to Sun reporters, Bill's buyout is coming, and Bill is expected to give up $1390,000 of the $110.8 million. The Sun will imitate the Bucks and use the extended clause to cut him off, with the remaining $96.9 million in salary paid in five years. After Bill became Lillard, he was the second player to be cut by the team for a contract of over $100 million this offseason! In this way, a record-first record in NBA history created by Lillard and Bill was born - the first time in the NBA's 79-year history, two stars with contracts with 100 million yuan were laid off in the same offseason! Not long ago, the Bucks cut Lillard, who had two years and 113 million yuan left, and also used the extended terms! Although both were cut, the actual situations of the two were different. Lillard suffered a rupture in the Achilles tendon and was reimbursed next season. In order to stay with Antetokounmpo, the Bucks had to make room for reinforcement. This was a helpless move! Bill, on the other hand, had conflicts with the team's management and had the privilege of vetoing the deal. The contract itself was a premium contract. In order for the team to develop, the Suns had to clear out his contract. After signing the big contract that year, Bill's data has been declining, but the lean camel is bigger than the horse. Last season, he still averaged 17 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game, shooting percentage of 49%, three-point shooting percentage of 38%, and free throw shooting percentage of 80%. It is not easy to ensure such efficiency in an environment that is excluded. The

5000w USD Bill is not worth it, but the 1000w USD Bill is extremely cost-effective, and many teams will be interested. The most suitable one is the Clippers, who signed Bill and Harden to serve as the starting shooting guard, allowing Powell to play as a substitute, so that the Clippers' lineup is more solid. It is reported that once Bill is confirmed to be sacked, the Warriors, Lakers, Clippers and Heat are all teams that are interested in it! Which team do you think of Bill joining?
