Should the Rockets trade Amen for Irving? The latter was praised for his efficient third scoring point. It was amazing to team up with Durant.

On November 15th, the NBA regular season continues. The Mavericks have been in terrible shape recently, and many of their stars are expected to be put on the shelf, including Irving. In this regard, former NBA star Teague suggested in a podcast that the Rockets trade Amen Thompson for Irving.

Teague said: "Now Irving can go elsewhere. He can go to the Rockets or other teams. For example, if you want to rebuild the team, then send Irving to the Rockets now and tell them, 'We want the Thompson brothers,' because it is difficult for the Mavericks to say, 'We will not do it for them. Let the Thompson brothers go, because now you have no chance, it is completely over. I think Irving can become the Rockets point guard."

Then Teague continued: "I have seen the cooperation between Irving and Durant in the Nets, and it is amazing even after Harden came. Excellent. They also have players like Shen Jing, who is like an organizational center. This is the advantage of their team. As far as Irving is concerned, as long as he is put on the court, the Rockets will do whatever it takes to win the championship. They need Irving to be a real third scoring point. Others take the lead and let others take the lead, but he can still shine. "

In last season, Irving averaged 36.1 minutes per game, scoring 24.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.3 steals, shooting 47.3% from the field and 40.1% from the three-point range. Irving has not played this season due to an Achilles tendon injury. Irving had previously partnered with Durant during the Nets, reaching as far as the Eastern Conference semifinals.
