Can the Clippers use a "no touch" lineup? There will be masters in the future, and the Warriors respect their veterans.

Basketball

As the Clippers won consecutive games in the free market, they have become a big dark horse after the Nuggets and the Rockets. Sure enough, the title of "offseason champion" accumulated over the years is by no means a false reputation. At the same time, we have to point out a big weakness of Ballmer's team, that is, their lineup is really a bit older. With Paul joining in the 21st season of his career, the Clippers can even line up a "no touch" lineup with an average age of up to 36.4 years old.

The lineup is led by CP3, 40, with 37-year-old Lopez and 36-year-old Batum serving as left and right guardians, 35-year-old Harden and 34-year-old Leonard following closely behind. Fans joked that when this lineup is on the court, the opponents will tremble. Whenever one falls to the ground, he will ask you if he supports it... There is no doubt about the experience of the veterans. They play the role of the Dinghai Sword on the court, and they play the role of the locker room leader off the court. When dealing with key balls, they often show more resilience than young teams when encountering adversity. But teams with many veterans also have their own weaknesses, that is, these old arms and legs can safely survive the long 82 regular season games, which is a common problem that all veteran teams have to face.

In fact, in theory, the Clippers are not the oldest team-the Golden State Warriors are expected to come from behind and overtake. Due to Kumingga's contract negotiations, the Warriors have not been making any changes in player signing this offseason, and even posted a three-day veteran named Looney. In fact, Warriors general manager Dunleavy Jr. did not sleep lying down and did nothing serious. According to relevant reports from famous reporter Siegel, the Warriors, the veteran Melton and veteran Horford have reached an oral agreement, and they can be officially announced only after Kumingga’s contract renewal is completed.

In this way, the Warriors' lineup will be compared with the Clippers. They will find that both of the 2009 doubles, Curry is one year older than Harden, Butler is older than Little Card, and Dreams are older than Bogdan, while Halder is older than Alexander, and Horford is much older as an evergreen on the stadium, which is much bigger than Daluo. In addition, Payton is expected to return, Westbrook, who has no place to go, may join, and the Warriors' overall age structure will be further improved.

Looking at the Warriors' lineup system, it's no wonder that everyone complained: In terms of being shorter or older, the Warriors have never been afraid of anyone. As mentioned above, mature teams cannot be without veterans, but if they pile up so many veterans, the health and physical fitness reserves of old guys are always a hurdle. In the new season, how far can the "untouchable" lineup like the Clippers and Warriors go? Do you think of them?
