Yang Rui came back, and the Clippers began to renew and sign contracts.

Yang Rui has been in contact with key free agents, let them look at the free agency market first, and if they are willing to stay with the Clippers, just talk to him, and the Clippers will match.

Due to the large number of people in the rotation, the Clippers' player statistics are very ordinary, except for Curry and Gasol. Danny Green was the first to renew his contract, 4 years and 40 million, which is great value for money.

As he averaged 25 minutes per game last season, only 7.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1 steal, Green breathed a sigh of relief after renewing his contract and updated his Facebook to say: "It's officially back to the best team in the world, thank you!" ”

Green doesn't feel like he's getting less money, he doesn't play much, he has a fixed job, he's relaxed, and he likes his role.

The Clippers renewed the four-year, 46 million contract extension of backup center Hassan Whiteside, which is also a signing that both parties are satisfied with.

The only teams that want to bet on Whiteside's talent are the Pelicans and Heat, with contracts of 46 million for 4 years and 33 million for 4 years, respectively.

The Pelicans offered a premium contract to a bench who could not play 20 minutes per game because the center position was too weak, and the big names were reluctant to join the Pelicans, so they had to develop players on their own. With any luck, White's athleticism can form a twin tower with Anthony Davis.

The Heat let go of Tristan Thompson and wanted to sign White Side as a blue-collar player at a lower price, fancy his ability to rush for frontcourt rebounds, and thought it would be a good fit to partner with Griffin.

Unfortunately, neither team is strong, and White would prefer to stay in the big city of Los Angeles, so he chose to negotiate with Clippers management, and as long as the Clippers are willing to match the contract, he is willing to stay.

Of course, Yang Rui is willing to match, and sign an inside line with two pairs of potential with an annual salary of tens of millions, even if he can only play as a substitute in the Clippers, the data is average, and the contract is worth it with high efficiency.

In Yang Rui's previous life, Bai Bian reached a contract extension with the Heat in 16 years, but it was a 4-year contract with a maximum salary of 98 million US dollars. Now the Clippers have signed him for half price, just as cool as picking up Guy back then.

It's easier to sign Covington, other teams are only willing to provide a base salary, the Clippers signed a two-year, 3 million contract, and the second year is a team option, Covington is very satisfied, and he has another chance to prove himself, at least better than the development league.

Then, the Clippers signed rookies Jokic, Devin Booker, and Norman Powell to four years, all under rookie contracts according to league standards.

Joseph Young was sent to the Timberwolves for next season's second-round pick, and the Timberwolves lacked offensive power from the outside and wanted him to be the team's sixth man. Due to the strength of the team, this will be a high second round.

The person the Timberwolves want most is Powell, who has good defense and can shoot three-pointers is more suitable to partner with Rubio, but Yang Rui said that he would not let him go, and Powell has received more attention because of this.

On July 25, the Clippers only have the last two spots left, and they need to bench power forward and point guard, which are reserved for veterans, and only those who are willing to take a pay cut can join.

Power forward Yang Rui selected David West, a one-year veteran with a base salary of $1.5 million.

West started with the Pacers last season, averaging 11.7 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.7 blocks in 28.7 minutes per game, and the shooting rate could reach 47.1%.

West, who has played for the Pacers for the past four seasons, announced that he had jumped out of his final year of contract worth $12 million. From 12 million to 1.5 million, West used his actions to explain what it means to "treat money like dung".

The Cavaliers, Warriors, and Wizards all made high-salary offers to West, but after many days of deliberation, he decided to take a pay cut to join the strongest team.

"At this point in my career, winning a championship is all there is to it," West said in a recent interview, "and again, I don't want to be on a team that is just trying to make the playoffs." I need to join a team that has the quality to win titles. ”

It's clear that veterans want a championship, and there's no better way to do that than to join the Clippers. It's a win-win signing, West is only 35 years old this year, and he still has a lot of strength, and the 17-foot killer is not called for nothing.

Although West's big mid-range shot is not as good as shooting a three-pointer from a distance, this style is easy to open up space and has a great tactical effect.

In the last pick, Yang Rui selected the point guard veteran Andre Miller, who averaged 15.5 minutes per game last season, 4.4 points, 1.9 rebounds and 3.5 assists, shooting 50% from the field and 75.3% from the free throw line.

Miller is a well-known iron man in the league with a high attendance rate, and he will be 40 years old by the middle of next season, and he is in good form and can still keep up with the pace of the game.

Miller is 188CM tall and weighs 91 kg, which is more like Karen Mok than Livingston, and has better back body skills than Livingston. He has a textbook back single, and his hateful itchy teeth can't be touched or covered, which is suitable for everyone to learn.

Yang Rui's base salary to sign Miller is not only for the veteran's feelings, but also to let him pass on his experience to young players, such as Middleton, Antetokounmpo, Whiteside and other tall and long-arm young people, once they practice back singles, they are like a tiger. Especially Bai Bian and Brother Alphabet, with their physical fitness, it is almost impossible for them to turn around and shoot to be blocked.

With an old family and a treasure, Miller can also teach players how to protect themselves and prolong their careers. It's just that not everyone is willing to learn his theory of not jumping without jumping.

It's good to learn more things after all. Booker, Powell and others can also learn to play back, like LaVine, Curry, Danny Green and others don't need to practice back, and people who don't have ass can't practice this trick well.

After the signing was completed, Miller finally saw the hope of getting a championship ring, and happily updated his Facebook page, saying: "No matter how beautiful the scenery along the road is, it can't compare to wandering around you." ”

At this point, the Clippers' 15-man roster for the new season has been confirmed.

Centre-forwards: Hassan Whiteside, Pau Gasol, Nikola Jokic.

Power forwards: Draymond Green, Giannis Antetokounmpo, David West.

Small forwards: Chris Middleton, Robert Covington, Aaron Crabbe.

Shooting guards: Danny Green, Norman Powell, Devin Booker.

Point guards: Stephen Curry, Zach LaVine, Andre Miller.

The Clippers did not sign a big-name star in the summer and let go of a Nene Hilario, who joined the Hawks for 4 years and 40 million. The Eagles need an interior line with the height to withstand people, and they can't just rely on the double shortness of Horford and Millsap. In an effort to free up space to sign Nengne, they let go of Carroll, who overlapped with Wiggins.

Nene's salary was divided among Whiteside, and the Clippers' salary did not increase much from last season, that is, Green increased from 4 million to 10 million, and the team's total salary was $71.6 million, which was just over the salary cap.

The salary is low, but no one will question the strength of the Clippers, people know that the Clippers signed Yang Rui has the final say, as early as the Lakers, he had the right to speak in management. The Clippers' total salary is always in the middle of the league, and Yang Rui can still lead the team to build a dynasty, which is really terrible.

There is no second reborn person in this world, so many people believe what Yang Rui said, and he is reluctant to introduce big-name stars because he doesn't want to win the championship too easily.

Looking at the Clippers lineup from the perspective of a reborn, this is clearly a team of All-Stars, but it is not at its peak, its playing time is shortened, or it has taken a pay cut when it is old.

Next season, the Clippers are the favorites to win the championship again, and other teams can't compete at all!
