Is it impossible for Harden to win the Clippers? What exactly happened? It's incredible!

The Clippers are now strong, and they have upgraded their strength in the inside and outside this summer. Inside, they got center Lopez from the Bucks, sent shooting guard Powell away, and power forward Collins from the Jazz.

And outside they got the shooting guard Bill who bought out from the Suns and got free agent point guard Paul. These two signings are very important to the Clippers' outside line, especially Paul's arrival, liberated Harden.

However, although the Clippers' lineup looks very strong, they cannot win the championship next season! Why do you say so? There are several main reasons.

The first reason is that the Clippers are too old. The Clippers' current lineup has an average age of up to 33 years old, and it is said that this is the oldest team in NBA history.

Old age means that the Clippers will have great risks in terms of physical strength and injury risks. Especially with such a long season, in the playoffs, these old players are likely to perform poorly due to physical exhaustion and injuries.

For example, Bill and Paul, they often cannot play at critical moments due to injuries. Paul, especially, often fails to play in critical moments in the playoffs due to injuries, which eventually leads to his team being eliminated. For example, the Clippers and Rockets were eliminated because of him.

, and Harden's regular season playing time last season was high, causing him to start to feel weak in the playoffs and his performance was very bleak! This is the main reason why Harden lost his chain as soon as he arrived in the playoffs.

The second reason is that the Clippers have two soft men. These two people have never proved themselves in the playoffs and always lost track at critical moments in the playoffs. These two people are Harden and Paul.

Harden always inexplicably cut off power at critical moments in the playoffs. I remember that when Harden was inexplicably defeating consecutive shots when he was fighting with Universe 7 games, he inexplicably lost the ball, resulting in the Rockets being eventually eliminated.

And Paul is always inexplicably injured at critical moments! I remember that he had a chance to reach the Finals in the Clippers and Rockets, but it was because he was injured and unable to play, which led to the team being eventually eliminated. So the Clippers cannot win the championship. Is this the reason?
