The Pelicans officially announced that Wall hit the sore spot, Harden tried his best, and the Galaxy Battleship may be about to fall.

So far in the new season, the New Orleans Pelicans have only achieved a poor record of 2 wins and 10 losses, but the management has vented its anger on the head coach. According to famous reporter Chris Haynes, the team has fired head coach Willie Green. Such a decision still caused a lot of controversy. According to Boston Celtics coach Mazzula, Green's experience is similar to the Mavericks' firing of general manager Harrison. Both were forced to lose their jobs due to external environmental problems. It has to be said that in today's league, the communication ability between the head coach and the players may be more valued than the professional level. Among them, champion coach Rivers is a typical case. Although he has been defeated 1-3 by his opponents many times in the playoff series, he has never been short of work. This is due to his strong ability to empathize.

Due to a poor lineup, the championship window is about to close, and Antetokounmpo is also trying to gain leverage for his future. There were rumors about him leaving the team during the offseason. Looking back at this stage, he is more willing to devote his energy to the game. This may be the innate temperament of a strong man. He never complains about the environment, but Rivers' role in it must not be ignored. As a direct disciple of Lao Li, Tyronn Lue has also inherited the mantle perfectly. Whether it is George, Westbrook, Harden or Leonard, he can mingle with the stars. Even though he failed to win the O'Brien Trophy during his six seasons coaching the Clippers, Ballmer was still quite satisfied with him. For this reason, the two parties deliberately delayed the contract extension until the 2028-2029 season.

Later, former NBA player John Wall specifically pointed out the main reason for Tyronn Lue's stable coaching position on the "Run It Back" program. Before the start of each season, based on the analysis of paper strength, the Clippers' lineup is very luxurious. However, they have never produced results, which is attributed to injuries. In particular, when Wall joined at the end of his career, many players were no longer young. Leonard, who is as strong as the "robot", is often unable to play the entire season due to ankle, knee and other problems, and this curse still continues. When Clippers general manager Frank signed a two-year, 11 million contract for Bradley Beal in the free market, the team's lineup instantly became more three-dimensional. I thought I could look forward to the Western Conference Finals, but I didn't expect an accident to come first.

Bill is out for the season due to a hip injury. As the most reliable scoring point besides Harden and Leonard, his injury is a blow to the team. Unless they can find a player who can replace him through injury exceptions, or put him on the shelf to promote the transaction, the Clippers will have to accompany him this season. In order to prevent the fall of this galactic battleship, James Harden led by example and burned himself completely. In the NBA Cup game where the Clippers defeated the Mavericks in double overtime, the 36-year-old Harden played 51 minutes. Such eye-catching numbers made him feel a little distressed.

In addition, Harden's average playing time this season has reached 35.9 minutes, ranking seventh in the league. The oldest of the six players before him is no more than 28 years old. With a two-year contract worth $81.5 million, he is acting like a lone hero. I have to admit that Harden tried his best. With such a performance, even former NBA player Felton couldn't stand it anymore and strongly recommended Harden to leave Los Angeles as soon as possible, and the Rockets became his final destination. Once Ballmer takes action, the Clippers are not far from disintegration.
