If there is no evidence! The league will not punish the Clippers, Xiao Hua evaluates Leonard s Yin-Yang Contract

3:56pm, 13 September 2025【Basketball】

The Clippers and Leonard have different opinions on the Yin-Yang contract. Someone previously revealed that Leonard and Aspiration had an activity. In the name of investment, the Clippers asked Aspiration to pay Xiaoka 28 million for four years and give 20 million shares in the form of a commercial contract. The move is to keep Leonard in the Clippers for a long time and lower some asking prices to help the Clippers avoid the salary cap restrictions. Such behavior has aroused public outrage. There is a report from the Meiji that if the Clippers are not punished, other teams will also behave like this.

But now as the incident deepens, the situation is becoming more and more beneficial to the Clippers. First of all, Clippers boss Ballmer made an announcement once, and he said directly during an interview. He did not collude with Aspiration to engage in any yin-yang contract. He just recommended Leonard to Aspiration. He was not clear about how the two parties discussed it privately. Ballmer also said that this was only recommended to Kazi nearly a year after the renewal of the contract with Leonard. And the outside world cannot find evidence that the Clippers have a Yin-Yang contract.

This is a means for the Clippers and Leonard to directly separate their relationship, and the Leonard team and the Clippers team are also working hard. According to reporter Jake Fischer, the Clippers are confident that the outside world cannot find evidence because they welcome the league to investigate. The Clippers also stated that Leonard was innocent in this matter. It was Aspiration who took the initiative to contact Leonard, rather than the Clippers guiding the contact between the two sides. The team can also issue the original email as evidence, and they are not aware of Leonard and Aspiration.

This is a very excellent method. Ballmer had previously said that he had held hands and met with both sides, but the Clippers team even denied this. Then the advantage will slowly tilt towards the Clippers. There is a high probability that this incident is that the Clippers will not be punished. Interestingly, the Clippers also blamed Leonard's uncle Dennis Robertson. The Clippers believed that it was signed by Mr. Ka and Aspiration, and Leonard himself may not know the specific details of both parties.

As the new season gradually begins, many US media have reported that there is no specific timetable for handling this matter. It can be solved immediately, or it can be delayed for a year or two, or even several years. The evidence alone is difficult to solve, and it is Ballmer's influence in the league. He is the chairman of the Audit Committee of the League Council and has not been affected by the storm at present, which also reflects that the league is friendly to the Clippers. Some bosses even helped the Clippers, and they said they like Ballmer very much.

Now the alliance has no evidence to punish the Clippers, and the boss also has different opinions. Some people hope to punish the Clippers severely, some people hope to restrain themselves, and some people hope not to punish them, because pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, maybe it is difficult to investigate too deeply, and even the Yin-Yang contracts of other bosses can be dug out. The most important thing is that the league president Xiao Hua also gave the Clippers peace of mind.

Adam Xiao Hua commented on the Clippers this way: "If we want to punish a team, the boss and the players, we need conclusive evidence. We will not force the punishment because of public doubts. It is obvious that some public remarks are wrong and we will not be led by the rhythm."

Xiao Hua's meaning is very obvious, and he directly bites the evidence to death, but the evidence is the most difficult to obtain at present. Now the questioning of Leonard is that he has no business interaction with Aspiration, and Xiaoka has not done any publicity activities for this company. Why do you give you 48 million for nothing for nothing? In other words, if Leonard does something for this company, he will not be questioned. But even these things can be considered guilty and cannot stand. So you can congratulate Leonard in advance. The Clippers have introduced Collins, Daluo and Paul this offseason. The Clippers will continue to win the championship in the new season. At least Harden fans can feel at ease, and the Clippers will not disintegrate yet.
