After the Rockets sent Green away! Four players compete for the qualification to stay in the team, two players benefited, and the white demon welcomed the opportunity to take the lead

Basketball

June 23rd news, a big deal occurred in the NBA early this morning. Famous reporter Shams Charania reported that the Rockets got 37-year-old Suns star Durant for 8 for 1. The specific chips were that the Rockets sent Jaylen Green and Dillon Brooks, this year's No. 10 draw, and the next five second round picks. After this deal, most fans thought the Rockets made a big profit, and sent away Jaylen Green, who was not as good as expected, and Dillon, who was not very important in the team, had just exchanged for the online star Durant, who had a strong first round, which really made a big profit. However, some fans are also worried about Durant's condition. After all, he is 37 years old and will play in the Rockets for at least two years.

It is worth mentioning that after this deal, more behind-the-scenes details were revealed. For example, before the trading deadline of last season, the Rockets quoted Durant. The chips they were willing to give out were Jaylen Green and Smith Jr., and there was no draft pick. In addition, in previous transaction negotiations, the Suns actually asked for more young Rockets players, especially Smith Jr. and Shepard, but the Rockets persisted until the end and did not compromise. From these details, we can see that although the Rockets have the intention to strengthen their trading, they have a clear idea of ​​who to send away and who to continue to cultivate. After Green is traded, the Rockets' Six Sons will also be reborn. Among the remaining six Rockets, Shin Kyung and Amen have already established their positions, especially Amen has already achieved their net worth this season and will become the team's appearance in the future. After Green left the team and released a large amount of ball rights, the remaining four players will make a profit from it and get more opportunities to compete for the qualification to stay in the team. After all, Smith and Ethan will face renewal this year. In the future, White Devils and Shepard will also face the problem of renewal. It is basically impossible for the Rockets to keep them all. They can only let the remaining four players compete fully this year, and the big waves will leave behind the rookies in real need. Among them, Smith Jr. and Ethan may be positioned as auxiliary players due to their ability issues, and the Rockets may be reduced in the future.

The biggest beneficiaries of Durant's trading will be Shepard and White Demon. Shepard is a potential stock with good projection but a short body shape. There are many places to grow. Compared with Shepard, a rookie with strong combat power like White Demon has seen a good opportunity to get ahead. He had been in a state of trouble because of his playing time and team status. Now Green has left the team and the Rockets lack offensive firepower in the backcourt. Isn’t this a tailor-made position for him? Start by playing as a substitute and fully exerting your offensive talent, it is not impossible to hit the starter. If the Rockets' deal can also assist the White Demons in addition to getting Durant's strong aid, it will be considered an unexpected gain.
