Rockets change to one another and pursue Antetokounmpo, the Bucks call for Jaylen Green

The Bucks lost 1-4 to the Pacers in the first round this season and were eliminated. As the team failed in the playoffs in succession, the star Antetokounmpo was already disheartened, and leaving the team in the offseason seemed to be a foregone conclusion. In an instant, many teams in the league, including the Warriors, Lakers, Rockets, etc., showed a strong interest in Antetokounmpo, and the Houston Rockets were undoubtedly the fastest-moving team.

It is reported that the Rockets have asked the Bucks about the possibility of trading Antetokounmpo. They are willing to come up with the theme of Shin Kyung, including Jabarry Smith, Alon Holiday, Whitmore and the first round chips. The quotation for six to one is full of sincerity. However, the Bucks said that they were not very interested in Shin Kyung, and they wanted Jaylen Green more!

As for why the Bucks persistently got Jaylen Green, the reasons may be as follows. First, Jaylen Green is the second place with a high pick, which is better than Shen Jing's development ceiling. Second, Jaylen Green's existing contract of 100 million in three years is more operational. Third, Jaylen Green is more durable and more suitable for training as the core. He has only missed 10 games in four seasons in the NBA and has been attending 82 regular season games in two consecutive seasons.

After the Rockets get Antetokounmpo, they can form a super defensive combination of Amen Thompson + Antetokounmpo. At the same time, Antetokounmpo's super impact on the offensive end can also solve the problem of unfavorable scores at critical moments. If the Rockets and the Bucks really reach this deal, I believe it should be a win-win result!
