On June 19, Beijing time, the NBA season's competition officially came to an end, the Celtics won the final championship, and then the team can negotiate a contract extension. At this time, the Clippers reached their first signing, but from the coach's bench, former NBA coach Van Gundy Jr. officially joined the Clippers and will serve as Tyronn Lue's chief assistant coach for the new season. And after Horford won the championship, Harden became the player with the most playoff appearances with 0 championships on the active roster.

The Clippers officially announced that Van Gundy Jr. has officially joined the Clippers as Tyronn Lue's head assistant coach.

Van Gundy Jr. has been out of the dugout for many years before transitioning directly to ESPN commentators, and after being fired, he joined the Celtics as a senior advisor to the team, but he was lucky to win the championship directly with the team.

The reason why Van Gundy Jr. chose to join the Clippers was that head coach Tyronn Lue also played a decisive role, and the two have a very good relationship. And during Van Gundy Jr.'s coaching of the Rockets, he was still the coach of Tyronn Lue, but he didn't expect to become his helper directly. Van Gundy Jr. still has a wealth of experience in coaching, with 430 regular-season wins and 44 playoff wins during his tenure as head coach. With the addition of Van Gundy Jr. in the new season, Tyronn Lue also has a helper.

At present, the Clippers and Harden can have contract extension talks, but there is not much news coming out, and the two sides are still interested in continuing to work together. And Harden also needs to continue to fight for the championship, after all, he has become the first person to win 0 championships in the active team. Horford finally won the championship after playing 186 playoff games, which also made Harden the player who played the most in the playoffs in the 0-level playoffs, having played 166 playoff games and reached the Finals once.

Harden has not missed the playoffs since he entered the league, and has made the playoffs every year. After joining the Rockets and growing into a superstar, he led the team to move forward, but he still couldn't get close to the championship, and then chose to leave, but whether it was in the Nets, the 76ers or the current Clippers, it was not very smooth. Now is his last chance to see if he can win the championship the following season.
