On May 8, the NBA playoffs are in full swing, and the Clippers were unfortunately eliminated in the first round. In the tiebreak with the Nuggets, the score ended the season's journey. The Clippers have been eliminated for 4 days. The general manager also revealed the team's plan at the summary meeting and will continue to be competitive; while Simmons has officially returned to China, while Harden has not made any noise.
The Clippers performed well this season, achieving 50 wins and 32 losses, ranking fifth in the West. As Leonard recovers from health, he is looking forward to them bringing some breakthroughs. Unfortunately, in the first round of the showdown with the Nuggets, he was defeated in the tiebreak, and ended the journey of this season. In the tiebreak battle, the Clippers performed very poorly. The players seemed to be unprepared and were completely suppressed by the Nuggets and were eventually eliminated.
After being eliminated, the team has also held a summary meeting. General Manager Frank revealed that the team's offseason plan will continue to strengthen the lineup and will not choose to play it badly. First of all, we will add inside players, which is what they have been doing, but unfortunately there has never been a suitable candidate. In this playoffs, Gordon caused great trouble to the Clippers' inside, and in many cases he could only rely on Leonard and Batum to fill the gap in the No. 4 position. In addition, the Clippers also want to add young players and shooters, it depends on whether they can get what they want in the offseason.
Simmons updated his social media and posted his route map, from Los Angeles to Australia, officially starting the offseason. Simmons joined the Clippers halfway through this season. He thought it would bring a lot of help to the team, but unfortunately the effect was not very good. He still got a chance at the beginning of the playoffs, but he was abandoned in the last three games and had no chance at all. Simmons will become a free agent this summer, but judging from the current market, it seems that there are not many teams who want to sign him.
Let's take a look at Harden. Since the Battle of Tianwang Mountain, he has not received any interviews. After losing the tiebreak, he disappeared without any updates. His performance in Tianwangshan and tiebreak in this playoffs was very bad, and he was criticized a lot. He held the player options this summer, and it is also an unknown whether he will continue to stay in the Clippers. For Harden, his chances of trying to win the championship are getting smaller and smaller, at least it is difficult to get it as a core member.
