Losing by 28 points, the loss also verified 4 things, sent away one person s ambush, Harden can apply for a trade

We have also seen the game between the Clippers and Magic. From the perspective of the Clippers, it was another ugly loss. There was no room for resistance, allowing a team that is not good at scoring to score 129 points. The Clippers lost by 20 points in the end, which was also a reflection of their recent state. It was really an unacceptable result. Losing by 28 points, the loss also verified 4 things. After sending away one person's ambush, Harden can apply for a trade.

The Clippers' loss to the Magic is actually a microcosm of this season. The loss also verified four things. The first thing is that Harden really can't use it hard. The current Clippers' dependence on Harden has reached the extreme. But everyone has seen that the more this happens, the more difficult it is for Harden. This game is also a waste of Harden's good form. 31 points and 8 assists were in vain. In fact, from Harden's perspective, the Clippers have no cure and can apply for a trade.

The second thing is that the signings during the offseason failed. When the Clippers signed players during the offseason, the outside world rated them highly, believing that every transaction and signing was a great addition. However, after playing so many games, it was discovered that Paul and Luo were really useless, and Collins was wasted by Tyronn Lue. So everyone can see that the current Clippers are vulnerable. As long as they increase their intensity a little bit, the game will become one-sided.

The third thing is that sending Powell away is the wrong decision. The reason why the Clippers were able to withstand last season was mainly because when Leonard was recovering from injury, there were players like Powell. Powell could work alone or with Harden, and was Harden's right-hand man. Now without Powell, the Clippers are really in a mess. To put it bluntly, sending Powell away was a foreshadowing of the Clippers' rapid decline, and it also removed the most critical link.

The fourth thing is that Tyronn Lue really has no tactics. As far as this is concerned, there must be no controversy now. Before, when Harden was still in control of the entire court, Tyronn Lue was still able to mess around, with Harden as a fig leaf. As Harden's ability to influence the game declines, Tyronn Lue is completely exposed. Tyronn Lue has no tactics at all, let alone on-the-spot adjustments. However, Tyronn Lue's coaching position is probably relatively stable. After all, no one can change the status quo.

In general, the Clippers have reached a crossroads, and don't think that the Clippers will rebound after Leonard returns. The Clippers' problems are already obvious. Harden has no helpers, no one in the mixed lineup can lead the team, the defensive end has been leaking, and Tyronn Lue does not have mature tactics and play styles. If the Clippers dismantle the team next, don't be surprised. While Harden still has trading value, you can get some assets back by sending him away.
