Haven't said Harden for a long time, but he's still very comfortable recently. He just invited a beautiful woman to help him promote red wine.
The Clippers season has completely ended, which also means that Harden has officially become a completely free player. Fortunately, his performance in this year's playoffs is not bad. In the series with the Lone Ranger, he can get 21.2 points and 8 assists with an average of 40.3 minutes of playing time, ranking first in all three categories.
In this case, Harden doesn't worry about his family. At present, the biggest probability is to stay in the Clippers, but it does not rule out that other teams spend a lot of money to poach. The only suspense now is, what kind of contract can Harden get? There is a certain platform blogger who overheard the news from under whose bed that the Spurs offered Haden a three-year $100 million contract and planned to design tactics around him and Wenbanyama. But soon, a 'peer' retorted, saying that the Spurs' offer to Harden was $130 million for four years. However, no matter what kind of statement it is, it can be seen that the news about 'Harden and the Spurs' is very popular, and there are many fans waiting for it.
However, these news are completely false and have not been reported by any serious media. Although theoretically speaking, the Spurs can indeed get Harden, they have been looking for an experienced top guard to partner with Wenbanyama, the No. 1 player next season. But the problem is that Harden, who is about to turn 35, is unlikely to get a three-year or four-year contract worth 130 million dollars or similar contracts. At this stage, it is generally estimated that the current market price of Harden is about $25 million - $30 million, and the contract length is two years. The reporter of American media BR predicted that Harden could only get a one-year contract. The main reason is that Harden's resume in recent years is too bad. There are four teams in three years, and three of them voluntarily apply for transactions.
Therefore, in order to avoid the team taking too much risk, it is better to sign a one-year contract with Harden to avoid causing huge losses to the team.
To get to the point, although the Spurs did not see signs of preparing for a big contract to pursue Harden, they did make moves. The target is not Harden, but Garland. If Garland leaves the Cavaliers, the Spurs will become his most likely new home, followed by the Lakers. In addition, the Timberwolves, who are still on the way to the playoffs, also intend to get Garland to replace veteran Conley and form a new backcourt combination with Edwards.
As an all-star guard, Garland has averaged 22+8 games for two consecutive years, but his performance this season is really bad. During this year's playoffs, only 15.7 points and 5.8 assists per game. Most importantly, Garland and Mitchell's backcourt partner did not show the strength the team hoped for. Ritchie Paul, a famous agent, hopes that the team will trade Garland, otherwise Mitchell will not reach a contract extension with the Cavaliers. Therefore, in this case, the team who is interested in Garan must be ready to try with the chips in their hands. The Cavaliers certainly want to renew Mitchell's contract. His ability is certainly not comparable to that of Garland. Moreover, Mitchell is only three years older than Garland. Now, Mitchell is hesitant because his goal is to win the championship.
Therefore, if the Cavaliers have made some big moves in recruiting this offseason, such as winning back James, the first player in the history of the Cavaliers, Mitchell is still very happy to stay. Before the Cavaliers played against the Celtics' G4 at home, James appeared in the Fast Loan Center, which caused a lot of discussion. Many people thought that James wanted to return to Cleveland later in his career. Many fans also expect Mitchell to cooperate with James, but they thought it was the Lakers.
Of course, for the Lakers, if Mitchell leaves the Cavaliers this offseason, they will also launch a fierce pursuit of Mitchell. At present, the Lakers rank first in Mitchell's next odds.
