Clippers News: Xiao Ka is not afraid of negative news, Harden expresses his confidence, Bill s injury is worrying

Xiao Ka is not afraid of negative news, not long ago, Leonard and the Clippers were suspected of being involved in the Yin-Yang contract incident. Leonard was revealed to have signed a four-year, $4,800,000 without doing anything with a company called Aspiration (Leonard's endorsement contract is several times higher than some well-known entertainers in the entertainment industry), and Clippers boss Ballmer is rumored to be the major shareholder of the company. For a moment, there was a lot of discussion outside, and all kinds of negative news came overwhelmingly towards Leonard and the Clippers. In order to thoroughly investigate the matter, the NBA has set up a special investigation team. Once the situation is found to be true, Leonard and the Clippers will face serious punishment.

Today is the first day of the Clippers' new season Media Day. Leonard attended successfully. Not only did he participate in the makeup photo session with great enthusiasm, but he also publicly responded to the Yin-Yang contract incident in an interview. Leonard said: "My team and I did nothing wrong. The NBA investigation is welcome. This will not cause trouble to me or other people on the team." Obviously, it is not difficult to see from Leonard's status and speech that he was not affected by this negative news at all, which shows that his signing with Aspiration should not be in principle wrong. It may be just that the whistleblower over speculation and even fabricated facts. In any case, I hope this matter can be revealed as soon as possible. After all, the new season is about to begin, and players need to focus on training and games.

Harden expressed his confidence in his statement

Today, Clippers star James Harden attended the team's media day and accepted an interview. When talking about how he felt about his upcoming 17th season, Harden expressed his joy and gratitude that he would do his best to continue to compete at a high level for so long. When talking about the team's goals for the new season, Harden said: "There is no doubt that it is winning the championship. Everyone knows that I have done everything in terms of personal achievements, but I lack a championship ring. There are many teams in the league who say that they want to win the championship, but there are only a few who have real opportunities. If you want to win the championship, you must stay healthy while being strong, and the Clippers just meet these two conditions."

In fact, Harden's confidence is not groundless. On the one hand, the Clippers have made targeted reinforcements during the offseason. In the interior, they have introduced Lopez, a high-speed turret with excellent frame protection ability and Collins, who are very physically compatible, and experienced Hall of Fame-level defenders Paul and Bill were introduced on the back line, and the overall lineup depth has increased; on the other hand, Harden and Leonard were both healthy after the playoffs last season and had no injuries. After a offseason training, they will be in a good stage. When the dual-core maintains high attendance and high efficiency, this Clippers will become very terrible. Of course, there are still many obstacles in the Clippers' road to winning the championship, such as older age and potential injuries. To win the championship, these veterans still need to unite and be sad to pass the championship.

Bill's injury is worrying

Today, Clippers new player Bradley Bill participated in the team's media day event, and during this period he answered multiple questions in an interview. When talking about why I chose the Clippers, Bill said: "The Clippers are a very competitive team, and my career shows that I can perform best with top point guards around me, so I am very excited to come to the Clippers, continue to enjoy basketball and hope to end my career here." When talking about what role I will play in the new season of the Clippers, Bill said: "No matter what the Clippers want me to do, I will do my best to execute it. I want to do everything I can to help the team." This offseason, Bill reached a buyout with the Suns, and then signed a two-year $1,100w contract with the Clippers.

However, at the end of the interview, Bill revealed a bad news, saying that his knee inflammation problem has not been completely resolved and he will miss the early stage of the training camp. Last season, Bill had inflammation in his right knee, but he insisted on playing with an injury, which led to the fight and the repeated injuries. For reference, Leonard had knee inflammation problems in the final stage of the regular season last season and missed the last 8 games. His forced comeback in the playoffs resulted in poor condition and worsened his injury. After the restoration surgery ended in the offseason, he missed one-third of the game in the early stage of last season. Knee inflammation does not sound serious, but it is very tricky because once you exercise at high intensity, your knees will swell and feel uncomfortable, which will have a significant impact on the physical and mental state of athletes. It has to be said that Bill's knee injury is still quite worrying. If we consider it from a long-term perspective, he should have a more rest and wait until he is almost healed before making a comeback. After all, there are people in the Clippers who can take the lead.
