The Clippers' victory over the Hornets was quite impressive for the Clippers. Don't say that the winning team is the opening team. As far as the current Clippers are concerned, no matter who wins, as long as they can win, after all, the team has won too few games recently and needs to accumulate wins. So after the Clippers win, what developments are worth paying attention to? After the Clippers won, Leonard's return was confirmed, and one person announced his retirement. Who pays attention to Harden's 2 data.

For the Clippers, the lack of recent wins is closely related to Leonard's absence. So when will Leonard return? As for this matter, it is now confirmed. Judging from the information given, Leonard is expected to return on Monday against the Cavaliers. Leonard's comeback is imminent, so Harden doesn't have to be so tired. This season Leonard averaged 24.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game, and his shooting percentage reached 50.5%.

Paul came to the Clippers this season. In fact, there is no gas in the tank. This season, it is a cliff-like decline. The state of the game is really difficult to describe. Now Paul has officially announced something, that is, he will directly choose to retire after this season. In fact, in this case, it was expected. When Paul returned to the Clippers, he actually wanted to retire as a Clippers player. But after Paul retires, he can transition into coaching.

Everyone knows that the current Clippers need Harden to score more points to win. So who noticed Harden's three statistics after the game? The first statistic is that Harden has scored 55+ points in a single game 12 times, second only to Chamberlain in NBA history. In other words, for this achievement, Harden is second in history. Among active players, Curry, Durant, and James combined have only scored 55+ points in a single game 10 times.

The second statistic, from the perspective of 50+ scoring games, is the 25th time in Harden's career that he has scored 50+ points, tying Kobe for third place in history, second only to Chamberlain's 118 times and Jordan's 3 times. As far as this statistics is concerned, it is also at a historical level. It can only be said that Harden can still perform in such a state, which is really gratifying and is the greatest value of the Clippers.

The third statistic is 28.4 points per game. In terms of this average data, it is a new high since the 19-20 season. In fact, for Harden, he doesn't want to play like this, but the current Clippers really need him to do this, and Harden can only turn on the scoring mode. In the absence of Leonard, Harden carried the team on his shoulders, which is very touching. It can only be said that the current Clippers are still relying on the old style of play, which is also very helpless.
