This year's NBA playoffs have come to an end and the draft has been settled, but most teams have not completed real reinforcement. Everyone is waiting for the start of the free market. The Clippers, which ended with 18 wins and 3 losses in the regular season last season, lost to the Nuggets in the playoffs, which made it difficult for the management to accept. After just completing two reinforcements, the Clippers seem to have new moves. Let's take a look at the news about the Clippers next.

First of all, Simmons canceled the Clippers on the social media platform, which sent a signal that Simmons will most likely leave the Clippers next season. It can only be said that the Clippers don’t have much nostalgia for Simmons. When the Clippers introduced Simmons for $750,000 to see if he could help Harden reduce his burden in the game. Facts have proved that the higher the hope for Simmons, there is a lot of disappointment. In Simmons, who is still not reused by the Clippers, it is natural to choose to leave.

The key point is here. What should you do if you want to strengthen the Clippers? The only bargaining chip they can get is Powell. Last season, Leonard was affected by injuries for a long time. With the help of Powell, Harden led the Clippers to the playoffs, and at the same time, many people saw Powell's value. However, his poor performance in the playoffs and the Clippers' need to strengthen the No. 4 position, he can only strengthen through Powell.

Since Leonard's comeback, Powell's condition has fluctuated greatly. After the baptism of the playoffs, it has actually proved Powell's value. Now that the Clippers do not want to give Powell a big contract, they are most likely to use Powell for players suitable for their lineup. At the same time, this idea has also been recognized by the Clippers' team record.

After the Rockets completed Van Jordan's contract renewal, Harden's only contract renewal is left. If nothing unexpected happens, the Clippers will complete the contract renewal with Harden. To be honest, if the Clippers did not meet the Nuggets in the playoffs, they will be able to go further. Unfortunately, Jokic is too capable, Westbrook performs extraordinaryly, and with the help of the league, the Clippers eventually failed, but the results played in the late regular season cannot be faked. When the offense and defense system is full, the Clippers are still fully competitive. The most important point at the moment is that you need to quickly exchange Powell for a suitable player in the fourth position.

Finally, there is news about Paul. Although it was once rumored that Paul would join the Mavericks, now, Paul is more inclined to join the team closer to his family, so there are only two options left. One is the Lakers and the other is the Clippers. However, the author thinks that Paul's chance of joining the Clippers will be greater than that of the Lakers. First, the Lakers' defenders do not have room for Paul to play. Secondly, as the former captain, Paul has a certain sentiment. Finally, now, the Clippers' lineup is more reasonable. Perhaps the Lakers will make targeted reinforcements in the future, but the Clippers are more suitable for Paul.

Many people think that the competition in the Western Conference is too great next season, and it is up to be discussed whether the Clippers can enter the playoffs, but what I want to say is that no one thought they could make it to the playoffs last season. What is the result? The Clippers' lineup is reasonable and has been targeted. If it can really get a strong No. 4 position, the Clippers will still be competitive next season.

Do you think the Clippers still have a chance next season? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
