The Sky-Clutch Griffin, Blooming Rose, Harden advises young people to stay healthy

Discussions about the new generation have been discussed since the start of the playoffs. After the veterans were eliminated early this season, the new generation began to lead the league, just like the star of the two teams in this season's finals, Alexander & Halliburton. Among them, Alexander led the Thunder to enter the finals again after thirteen seasons, while Halliburton led the Pacers to enter the finals again after 25 years.

In a program, the anchor asked who can lead the league's traffic in a new generation, Harden said that there are indeed a group of very outstanding young players in the league that are rising. For example, Wenban, Alexander, Cunningham, etc. There are too many talented players among them. This group of new generations are really talented, but it is really impossible to estimate who can lead the league's traffic in the future.

Harden said it was very difficult to go further in the league.

As of now, there are not many stars who can represent the league traffic. James, Curry, Durant, Harden, etc. They have been fighting for 16 or 7 years. James has even been fighting for the league for 22 years. These stars are gradually getting old, and James is even close to retirement. Maybe one year or two years. Therefore, if a star wants to dominate the league traffic, it not only requires talent, but also health.

Looking back, there are many outstanding young talents in the league. The most memorable ones in recent years are Griffin, Rose, Evans, Jennings, etc. Unfortunately, their career peaks are not long-term. Derek Ross of the Bulls, the youngest MVP in history, was selected by the Bulls as the No. 1 pick in 2008. He was traded repeatedly in the 2016 season until he announced his retirement in 24 because of his injury.

Clippers Griffin, the No. 1 pick in 2009 and the winner of the 2011 All-Star Dunk Contest. In the first year of joining the Clippers, Griffin delayed the date of the NBA debut due to a stress fracture in his left knee kneecap. In the late stage of his career, Griffin was fraught with injuries. In 2018, when Griffin was traded until the Pistons began, he also experienced repeated trades. Finally, Griffin chose to retire in 2024.

Finally, Harden sighed: I sincerely hope that these young people can take good care of their bodies, keep in shape, and continue to perform on the highest stage. Because only by staying healthy can we persist in the league and ultimately reap the corresponding rewards.
