Goodbye Harden!Officially submitted a trade application, 6 games with zero wins and losses, and the Rockets returned to their dreams
Harden said goodbye to the Clippers and handed over a transfer letter to the teamDid he ever want to go back to Houston?In order to achieve this, two things must be done.
After the arrival of Harden, the Clippers are finally on the path to success, suffering a six-game losing streak. At that time, the Clippers were heavily slammed, and Wei Shao had to take the initiative to participate in the game with Harden. When two people play together, this combination can cause them to lose a lot of points. The Clippers are in 8th place in the East after nine straight wins in the last 12 rounds. Tyronn Lue also looks like he's taking advantage of Harden well. When Harden, Leonard, and George joined forces, the Clippers had the best offensive and defensive efficiency in the league. Leonard is also gradually finding his sense of being a star, scoring 41 points after coming on, and this time, he has contributed another 34 points to the team. Leonard is happy to say that this team has a good cooperation, a kind of chemistry tacit understanding.
But at the same time, Tucker, a veteran of the Clippers, expressed his displeasure at the press conference. After the win over Portland, Tucker told reporters that he was left out of the bench long ago because he didn't get enough games with the Clippers and that he wanted to find a team that could help him. Tucker has not featured in his last five games, last appearing on November 28. According to previous news from the famous ** Shams, Tucker and the Clippers have discussed future transfers.
Interestingly, Tucker didn't score in six games and only took two shots until he was ruled out. In terms of guards, Tucker also has a noticeable decline. The three-pointers in the back corner, which he relied on, were equally difficult to shoot. To put it simply, the Clippers with Tucker will face 4 against 5.
Tucker has been traded away by the 76ers, and it's just too reluctant. He used to be a friend of Harden and a former teammate, and he once met Harden in Philadelphia. But their performance with the 76ers was a big disappointment. After Harden asked to be swapped, some Philadelphia newspapers reported that Tucker wanted to follow in Harden's footsteps. However, after being sold to the Clippers, Tucker said at a press conference that he was the most innocent.
Tucker's transfer is a problem for the Clippers because his level has dropped and he is still earning more than $10 million a year. From the point of view of interests, there is no doubt that such a contract is harmful. It looked like they were in trouble with a transfer to Harden, as they needed Harden but refused to pay Mann a transfer fee, so they opted to renew Tucker's contract. The Clippers couldn't do anything about it, and they had to give it a try, because at that time when the Bucks were in the championship, Tucker locked Durant firmly in the air, which made them impressed.
However, after testing a few events, Tyronn Lue quickly realized that something wasn't right, and in order to prevent more losses, he quickly used DNP. What kind of team can Tucker recruit?If Tucker were an experienced player, the Mavericks, Warriors, and Bucks would have rushed to get it. However, Tucker's annual income of more than $10 million has put many teams off, and the Bucks do not have the strength to match.
However, in the NBA, there is no one who can compare to Tucker, and that player is the Houston Rockets. Oladipo is a player with an annual salary of nearly 10 million, but he has not played in any team. If the Rockets were to trade one or two second-round players, it would certainly make the move smoother. Tucker knows the Rockets well, and Tucker is also a guard selected by Judoka. In addition, Tucker has had a good playoff appearance, which can also provide some support to the Rockets' youth players.
However, Tucker still has to get back to his 50 percent defensive level and get back his three-pointers in the corner. However, I firmly believe that once again I return to Toyota, Tuckerken will be able to fit in easily!
