US media suggests a big deal in Rockets! 5 for 1 Durant, clear 40 million Mr.

Basketball

May 10th news, the Rockets lost to the Warriors in the previous first round of the game, and were eliminated in the first round of the game. The Rockets ranked second in the Western Conference in the regular season, but were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs. Such performance has also aroused doubts from the outside world. To summarize the problems facing the Rockets, the lack of stars in the team who can stand up for tough battles at critical moments has become the biggest shortcoming at the moment. Neither Shin Kyung nor Jaylen Green can still bear the heavy responsibility. Therefore, the team's next team building plan needs to be changed. Sticking to cultivating young people may make the team miss the rookie bonus period and cannot achieve a better record. Therefore, it is necessary for the Rockets to make some transactions and get a final decision.

The US media "Open-Air Stand" today proposed to the Rockets and planned a trading plan. The specific transaction content is that the Rockets got: Durant, and the Suns got: Van Vreet, Whitmore, the first round pick from the Suns in 2025, the first round pick from the Suns in 2027, and the first round pick from the Lotto protected in 2028. It is worth mentioning that the Rockets have many first rounds in the Suns, and this year there is also the first round exchange rights with the Suns. In addition, the first round picks in 2027 and 2029 are all in the hands of the Rockets. After the transaction plan was released, it also caused heated discussion among fans. Everyone said that if only Van Jordan was sent away, White Devils and a few first rounds could get Durant, then this transaction plan was still good.

For the Rockets, this deal was to send away Mr. 40 million and potential star Whitmore. In terms of player losses, it did not have a big impact on the team's overall lineup. The Rockets only sent away one person, but the highly questioned core player Green did not send away either. As for the first round of draft picks, they were originally assets to be traded, so sooner or later they would need to fight, it depends on whether the person they are pursuing is worth it. Van Jordan's contract expires this year is more than 40 million yuan, which is the team's option. The Rockets' current idea is not to execute the contract and try to make him cut his salary and renew his contract. If he does not agree to the salary cut and stays with the team to renew the contract, and only focuses on the big contract for the last year, the Rockets will maximize the benefits and execute his contract for transactions.

Therefore, in the case of Van Jordan's contract, the Rockets are free to advance and retreat. The only regret is to get a potential new star. Van Jordan has a low cost performance, while White Demon simply has no chance to show his talent. It’s a pity that he was born at the wrong time, and there are too many young people in the Rockets to rebuild, so the competition is fierce. If he can switch to a bad reconstruction team, he will probably be able to play, which is considered a good thing for the Rockets. Of course, the Rockets can compress two first-round signs in this transaction plan, and then go to the free market to find a veteran point guard with a higher cost performance and renew the contract with Adams, the Rockets' lineup will still be interesting at that time. The Rockets' sixth son, Galdurant, have run, jump and defend, have an inside offensive fulcrum, and have people who play key balls, which is worth looking forward to.
