The Clippers reinforcement plan remains unchanged! They are not obsessed with big deals, but still aim at two positions, one person is on the cleanup list
6:20pm, 5 June 2025【Basketball】
June 5th news, the Clippers started high and closed low this season. Under the leadership of Harden, the regular season brought unexpected surprises to fans. The team not only broke through the siege when they were despised and could not enter the playoffs, but also scored fifth in the Western Conference in the regular season. What's even more gratifying is that with a minor injury and George left the team, Harden also activated the inside blue-collar Zubac and scorer Powell, allowing both of them to perform best in their careers. Zubac was also selected for the second team of the best defensive team. However, after entering the playoffs, the Clippers and Nuggets had seven games in the first round, but were finally eliminated for many reasons, which disappointed the fans, so strengthening during the offseason became the top priority.
Today, HoopsHype famous reporter Michael Scotto broke the Clippers' reinforcement plan this summer. According to sources, unless there is a big deal, the Clippers are expected to have a complete middle-class special case this summer, and the team will pursue a substitute center and a center who can defend and protect the frame. It is not yet certain whether this middle-class special will be used separately or on a player. In addition, center Eubanks, who was traded last season, is expected to be cleaned up. His salary of 4.75 million next season is currently not guaranteed. Therefore, if the Clippers make small fuss, they must make good use of the middle class space and Eubanks' non-guaranteed contract to strengthen or trade.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with the Clippers aiming at the substitute center and substitute point guards to strengthen. Because at the end of this season's trading date, all the transactions promoted by the Clippers are aimed at these two directions, such as trading for Eubanks and Mills, sending Mann away for Bogdan, and sending Porter away Jr. to Bencitten for free. But unfortunately, the Clippers seem to have done a lot, but the results are very poor. The deal between Eubanks and Mills is basically useless. The biggest impression left on fans is that they are very powerful in cheering on the bench. Bogdan performed well, and Simmons, who had high expectations, was directly used and had no stable playing time in the playoffs.
In fact, in terms of starting strength, the Clippers' lineup is already very good. Harden, Kat, Zubac and Powell all have the ability to play 20+. Find a qualified substitute for Harden, strengthen the offensive problem of the Clippers' round-off connection, and find a substitute for Zubac to solve his inside defense after the game. This direction is correct. At the same time, the Clippers also need to find a qualified starting fourth position. It turns out that Kats' physical condition is too difficult to play the fourth position. Jones and Coffey are not effective. In this position, you can try to pursue Portis of the Bucks and Reed of the Timberwolves. As for the substitute center and point guard, you can try to chase Abussele and Brogden, and Paul and Capela can also check it out. Of course, the biggest problem is Tyron Lue. In fact, the Clippers have good resources and are indeed not useful.
