Unintentionally trade Green, Rockets 10 pick value increases, 12+7 forwards are difficult to renew, two-handed preparations

The Rockets had no surprises and won the 10th pick. As the second in the Western Conference, this year is another draft year. Being able to get this sign gives the Rockets more choices in the offseason. Although the first round of the playoffs was eliminated, the Rockets have many young talents and have accumulated a lot of talent, which has attracted many players to join. For example, Durant and Alphabet Song have developed a certain connection with the Rockets. After several seasons of failure, this year will be a good opportunity for trading.

If you want to select the Rockets' most disappointing player this year, it is undoubtedly Jaylen Green, who can only average 13 points in the playoffs and shoot as low as 37.2%. If it weren't for the second outbreak and scored 38 points, the average score per game in seven games in the playoffs would not reach double digits. According to media The Athletic, the Rockets still have confidence in Jaylen Green and no longer pursue Devin Booker of the Suns, which shows that Green will not be traded.

Jaylen Green is actually a double-edged sword. His three-year, 105 million contract will be executed next season, and he is only 23 years old. He still has cost-effectiveness and potential. He can perform solo shows in many games in the regular season. It is normal to not adapt to the playoffs for the first time. The Rockets want to introduce superstars to improve the team to a higher level, but it is not worth the loss to break the team. Players such as Jaylen Green, Shin Kyung, and Amen are still the core of building the team, and they also hope that next season, Jaylen Green can make some progress and improve his ability to fight tough battles.

The 10th pick in the draft, and the value is no worse than last year's third pick. The Rockets are currently full of talents in all positions, but the substitutes number one and number five need to be upgraded. Van Vleet's contract has not yet been determined whether to execute, and Shepard is not the point guard. Adams performed well in the playoffs, but considering his age and technical characteristics, the Rockets need a blue-collar center partner with excellent physical fitness, Shin Kyung, who can also consider using it to package and trade stars.

Last season offseason, the Rockets renewed the contract with two players, Shin Kyung and Jaylen Green in advance, both of which were very worthwhile, and Stone's contract renewal negotiations were very good. This year, Jabarry Smith and Tari Ethan are also eligible to renew their contracts in advance. According to salary expert Eric Pincus, the Rockets are unlikely to provide Jabarry Smith with a large contract renewal. After joining Smith, he is not an indispensable core for the team. Although he is a high scorer, he only has 12+7 in the regular season and has only averaged 7 points per game this year.

The Rockets can make two preparations during the offseason. On the one hand, they will remain silent and continue to build the team with their original draft picks + 10th picks, and cultivate stars by themselves. On the other hand, he has an expiring contract like Van Vleet, as well as some young players and 10th picks. In terms of chips in the trading market, he is definitely one of the best. After the Mavericks get the No. 1 pick, it is very likely to have a chain reaction. Some teams that are more difficult to make breakthroughs in the playoffs will join the trading war.
