The Inevitable Continuity of James Harden with the LA Clippers

Published

By


No maneuver on the LeBron Lakers’ roadmap has been able to avoid the inevitable: James Harden will not leave the city but nor will he leave the team. La Barba will continue exactly where he is.

By Shams Charania sources The Athletic, the zero-time NBA champion will try, one more year, to kill two birds with one stone and bring the glory of the championship to two entities that do not know it: the LA Clippers and himself. A milestone of infinite value to achieve.

The agreement to maintain his services and break his fate will be for another two years and 70 million dollars. That means that if he finishes his contract (something difficult to predict when it comes to Harden) he will remain linked to the franchise until he is almost 37 years old.

Three out of four (so far)

With this move, Steve Ballmer is putting the finishing touches on his big and, to date, failed investment, securing the continuity of two of his three great stars (in addition to Westbrook), Kawhi Leonard and James Harden. While Paul George, who has just rejected his player option to become a free agent, still has a lot to think about and various teams to meet with before deciding whether to change teams or give himself another chance with a Big Three that is dying and in a destiny that seems cursed.

In his only year as a Clippers player, Harden, League MVP in 2018, has averaged 16.6 points (42.8% on field goals, 38.1% on three-pointers), 8.5 assists and 5. 1 rebound in 72 games and 34.3 minutes of play, taking another leap in his play in the playoffs, but insufficient to beat the Dallas Mavericks who knew how to take advantage of Kawhi’s loss.

Planned without air conditioning, the Olympic village, which is to accommodate more than 10,000 athletes during the Paris Olympics, will be adorned with mobile air conditioners, with the delegations having ordered nearly 2,500 units for the 7,000 rooms that will be used, the village’s deputy director assured on Tuesday.

“The goal was really to meet this extremely specific need for athletes who are playing the match or competition of their lives (…) and who may have comfort and recovery requirements that are higher than a standard summer. And so (…) we had about 2,500 air conditioners that were ordered,” assured the deputy director of the village Augustin Tran Van Chau during a press visit.

Two years ago, Anne Hidalgo, the mayor of Paris and president of Solideo, the company responsible for building the village, had nevertheless ruled out the possibility of using mobile air conditioners in the village. “There will be no need for them (…). I have a lot of respect for the comfort of the athletes, but I think much more about the survival of humanity,” she assured France Info in February 2023.

Some delegations worried in case of heatwave

The buildings of the Olympic Village built by Solideo guarantee a difference of -6 degrees compared to the outside temperature. To improve this performance, the organizers added a geothermal system that helps cool the rooms, combined with fans installed in each room. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

However, some delegations have nevertheless expressed their concern in the event of a heatwave, prompting the organising committee to offer them the opportunity to purchase mobile air conditioning units for a fee, through the catalogue of options for equipping the village rooms.

The delegations also have the possibility of coming with their mobile air conditioners: “we gave them guides on technical constraints, in particular for energy consumption and the level A quality of their equipment, to have material that is up to date”, specified Augustin Tran Van Chau.

The deputy director assures that he has encouraged the delegations to take “one air conditioner per dwelling” maximum, but there is no guarantee that this advice will be followed.
