After signing Finney Smith, Stone chased the beast with 44 points in a single game, and the Rockets challenged the Nuggets and Thunder

With Durant's big deal alone, the Rockets have shined in the offseason and deservedly ranked among the winners. This transaction is exquisite. The Rockets have accurately strengthened the team's weakest link with a nearly perfect posture, and have not let any top star fall, nor have they lost the high-quality draft assets with great potential in the future.

However, the Rockets' ambitions go far beyond that. They recruited Finney-Smith with a four-year agreement of 53 million; and welcomed Capela back with three-year sincerity of 21.5 million. The contract reached with Van Vritte fully demonstrates a friendly consideration for the team's development; the contract renewal with Jabbarri Smith Jr. was also a reasonable choice after careful consideration. In addition, the contract renewal of Tate, Aaron Holiday and Jeff Green is like adding key pieces to the team's puzzle, further enriching the thickness of the lineup.

In the end, the Rockets carefully created a powerful team with a lineup depth and multi-faceted sex. This team is like a precision-operated combat machine, with many magic weapons to defeat the enemy. The defense is as tight as a wall, the rebounding battle is as fast as a hungry tiger, the body advantage as a towering mountain, the ability to fight against steel and rocks, the vitality on the court as vigorous as a spring flowers, the rich experience of playing like a vast star, and Durant's unsolvable scoring talent as sharp as a sharp blade is enough to make any opponent afraid. At present, the Rockets are competing fiercely with the Thunder on the road to honor of "the team with the deepest lineup in the league".

Now, the Rockets, who have risen to become the second strongest team in the West, will surely launch a thrilling battle with the Thunder in front of the throne of the Western Conference champion, becoming the biggest rival to hinder the Thunder's replica of the 2017-18 season with Warriors Du defending the legend.

However, even such an excellent lineup is not without flaws. The lack of depth in the back line is like a cloud of hidden worries, which has largely forced the Rockets to rely on 31-year-old Van Vritte, who has passed the peak of his career.

What's more, after Jaylen Green, Dillon and others left, the team's second position was indeed lacking a main player who was good at fighting; because of this, General Manager Stone did not feel complacent about his previous operations, but continued to rack his brains to find ways to improve the team's talent.

Recently, The Athletic reporter Kelly Iko broke the news that according to reliable sources, after successfully signing Smith and Capela, the Houston Rockets will go all out to chase Grimes.

Grimes' scoring skills are extremely comprehensive and have reached the pinnacle. When performing a mid-range jump shot, he stretched naturally, his movements were completed in one go, and his eyes were determined and decisive. The basketball seemed to be given spirituality. After drawing a perfect arc in the air, he fell into the net accurately and accurately. When shooting from outside the three-point line, his eyes were firm and he quickly pulled up the shot without hesitation. The basketball was breeze and often entered the net with a crisp "swish" sound; and when he broke through to the inside, he could fully utilize his outstanding physical fitness to confuse his opponent with flexible and changeable steps, cleverly flash through the opponent's heavy defense, and then scored in a tough posture.

It is not difficult to imagine that if Grimes can successfully join the Rockets, he will definitely become an important and indispensable core force in the team's lineup, contributing to the team's offensive firepower, and making the team's offensive on the field even more fierce and unstoppable.
