4 people have been appointed to start the speedboat, Bill is treated preferentially! Harden: Inspire his energy

Basketball

On October 1, the first day of training was held at the speedboat training camp. After the training, coach Tyron Lu was interviewed and confirmed that Harden, Bill, Leonard and Zubac had won the starting position in the new season, but another starting candidate is to be decided. New aid John Collins also needs to conquer coach Lou through his performance in training camp.

During this day of training, Harden and Paul were in the same frame, which made many Rockets fans sigh. Harden and Paul once teamed up with the Rockets and led the Warriors 3-2 in the Western Conference Finals in 2017-18. Unfortunately, Paul missed the subsequent game due to a hamstring injury and was reversed by the Warriors. The Light Bulb Combination's championship plan was frustrated, and the next season fell to the Western Conference semi-finals and then parted ways.

Paul and Harden left the Rockets one after another, and then went through many twists and turns, and finally got together on the speedboat. At this time, the situation of the two people changed a lot. Harden was one of the leaders of the Speedboat, and Paul became a substitute.

Compared to Paul, new player Bradley Bill has received preferential treatment. He was confirmed to be in the starting lineup early, and coach Tyron Lu and player Harden both hope to inspire Bill's energy. Bill is here to fill the offensive vacancy left by Powell, or even upgrade the team's offense. The key is to see how much of the level Bill can still recover from his peak period.

Bill averaged 30+ games in the 2019-20 season and 2020-21 season, but his form then declined. Last season, Bill averaged 17.0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game in the Suns, shooting 49.7% from the field, 38.6% from three-point shooting percentage and 80.3% from free throw percentage.

"Bill is a fatal scorer. My task is to inspire his killer instinct and put him in the most comfortable position. When each individual shines, the team naturally shines. It is indeed my job and the job of all of us - to inspire the best potential of everyone on this team. He was with two other stars before in the Suns, but the results were not ideal, and I had experienced that situation. So for us, man, it was to let him regain his love for basketball and fight for each other." Harden said.

Harden will form a starting backcourt partner with Bill in the new season. Can the bearded pass make Bill rise again? Don't forget that Paul is also on the bench. He should also play with Bill for a certain period of time and will feed the scorer the ball.

coach Tyron Lu is confident about Bill's recovery: "I think it's very easy for a player like Bill to join our team. He can play pick-and-roll, shoot when he can catch the ball, is an excellent empty cutter, and can handle the ball. He can do a lot of things on the offensive end. I think the most important thing for us is his passing ability and his ability to create opportunities for Zubac and others after pick-and-roll. I don't think there will be any difficulties in integrating him into our system."

Coach Lu also admitted: "At present, we know that four players have confirmed their starts, Harden, Bill, Leonard, Zubac." The Clippers will weigh another starting position through training camp. John Collins is a popular pick for this position, but Derek Jones Jr. will also compete. (Text/Li Huanyu)
