Since the door to the NBA trading market opened on July 1, many news of explosive transaction transfers have been heard one after another. Now more than half a month has passed, the league has gradually returned to calm, and there will basically be no major transactions. But if you look at the free market, you will find that veteran stars like Paul and Westbrook are still signing new next companies, which makes people sigh, and it has also caused fans to speculate about who their next company is.

But soon, according to ClutchPoints reporters and league sources, free agent Chris Paul is about to follow in the footsteps of his friend Bill and join the Los Angeles Clippers. It is reported that Bill had just reached a buyout agreement with the Suns and will sign the Clippers for 11 million in two years after the clarification period.

In fact, Paul has always expressed his desire to join a team closer to home, and the Clippers and Lakers in Los Angeles are undoubtedly his potential next home. Now, with Bill successfully signing the Clippers after buying out, Paul finally made a choice. Although the Clippers lost Powell in the new season, they also welcomed the joining of Bill and Paul, and their backcourt strength can be said to have increased instead of decreasing. It is worth mentioning that Paul and Harden, a pair that once brought endless imagination to Rockets fans, is now standing in the same trench.

Compared to Paul who can still choose a favorite next company, Westbrook has much less choice. Since the free market started trading, Westbrook has never been able to wait for any substantial quotation. Although his performance in the Nuggets was remarkable last season, Westbrook's style of play was somewhat inconsistent with the current era of small balls that pursued space and efficiency, which directly discouraged many teams. However, Westbrook also has its own advantages, such as having rich experience in playing ball and full of energy on the court. The Pistons, which urgently need to find role models for young people, have turned their attention to Westbrook, intending to bring the nine-time All-Star point guard to Detroit with a veteran minimum salary!
