When the NBA's transfer market made waves, the entire basketball world was shaken by the shocking news - Harden and Westbrook, two superstars, decided to join forces with the Nuggets and start a new journey for them to challenge for a championship.
The Clippers don't seem to be having a good time. The internal situation is confusing, and the rumors of Paul George's departure add fuel to the fire. And Harden and Westbrook, the two pillars of the team, were also disappointed by the management's inaction. They didn't want to play for this hopeless team anymore and decided to part ways.
At this moment, the Nuggets extended an olive branch. Not only did they offer a lucrative contract, but they also prepared a four-year, $130 million super contract for Harden. This sincere offer made Harden and Westbrook excited. And Paul George, a former comrade-in-arms, also sent his blessings. He knows that sometimes tough choices have to be made in order to win a championship.
But not everyone thinks so. Leonard, the Clippers' star of the game, is furious over the departures of Harden and Westbrook. In his opinion, they betrayed the team and deserted. He publicly condemned their actions, hoping that they would recognize reality.
Harden and Westbrook have made their decision. They joined the Nuggets and formed an impressive new combination with super-center Jokic. This combination of inside and outside lineup will greatly enhance the strength of the Nuggets and make them a strong contender for the championship.
Speaking of Harden, you have to mention his basketball IQ on the court. In one game, he dismantled the Nuggets' defense with seven exquisite "offenses and passes", showing his extraordinary basketball intelligence. Not only can he score on his own, but he can also lead the whole team's offense, which is exactly what the Nuggets need.
And Westbrook, one of the former Thunder's three youngsters, has no one to break his triple-double record so far. His all-round performances on the pitch always bring victory to the team. He will continue to play to his strengths with the Nuggets and contribute to the team's victory.
This transfer turmoil has had a huge impact on the NBA's transfer market. Other teams are also starting to revisit their rosters and think about how to respond to the change. And the addition of Harden and Westbrook has also made the Nuggets the focus of the league.
As the new season approaches, all eyes are on the Nuggets. Can Harden and Westbrook achieve their championship dreams here? Can Jokic make a spark with them? And how will Leonard's anger affect the future of the Clippers? All this is full of expectations.
In this season full of uncertainties, the addition of Harden and Westbrook is not only a simple transfer, but also a big gamble on the future. They chose the Nuggets, they chose the challenge, and they chose the hope. And we can only wait and see if they can write their own legend in the Nuggets.
