Even the guard is missing! White Demon is caught in transaction rumors, Stone signs three people in a row, and there is also a special case for middle-class people

The Rockets successfully renewed their contract with Adams Van Jordan before. Durant's contract renewal is not a problem. It is estimated that the two parties will reach a two-year early contract renewal. In this case, 37-year-old Durant himself has a one-year contract and two years, and he will be in the Rockets in the next three years. He is indeed ready to retire in Houston. The Rockets are also preparing to leave three players. According to Shams Charania, a famous reporter from "ESPN", Tate, Holiday and Jeff Green are expected to renew their contracts with the Rockets to stay in the team, and they are all basic salaries.

These three players are the key puzzles for the Rockets in the past two years. Tate was with the Rockets in the last year of Harden's departure. Now that the Rockets have successfully rebuilt, he still stays in the team. Although there is no rotation time, it is not a big deal. Jeff Green and Holiday are also high-quality rotations in the Rockets' backcourt and forward line. These three people should have no time to stay in the team next season, just to increase the fault tolerance rate of injuries, and the Rockets will still focus on rookies.

Smith, Shinkyung, Amen, Ethan and Shepard will be the Rockets' core five-man team, and then Durant and Van Jordan will be the assistants, and White Devil Whitmore is the most likely rookie to leave the team. According to Rockets Kelly Iko today, the White Devils have become the focus of trading discussions in the Rockets in recent days. Although it is not yet certain that the White Demon will leave, he should have the highest probability of leaving the team with 6 sons. Compared to the rookie who was highly valued in the first year, the White Demon was instead thrown into the cold palace in the second year.

The reason why Uduka does not use Whitmore is that he has a bad defensive attitude, looks very casual on the court, and many unreasonable attacks on the offensive end. In fact, attacking Uduka is acceptable, which means that the defensive attitude restricts the playing time of the White Devils. As long as you don't get the ball, the White Devil will become negative on both offense and defense. The deadline for this season's trading is that there are rumors that White Demons apply for a transaction and want to go to a team with more chances. Bai Mo is 21 years old this year, 2.01 meters tall and weighs 105 kilograms. He is a rookie with 20 picks in the first round in 23 years and was once predicted to be the top five.

In terms of talent, the White Demon must have something to do. This season, he averaged 9.4 points and 3 rebounds per game in 16 minutes, shooting percentage of 44.4%, and three-pointers of 35.5%. When you are in good condition, the White Demon can score 20 points at will. If White Magic can focus on 3D work, he will be the Rockets' ideal shooting guard, but unfortunately his personality is due to his personality. After the Rockets traded Jaylen Green, the team also lacked a point guard. If you let Smith play the starter, it means Amen has to play the scoreback, which is unreasonable.

Perhaps the Rockets can consider the 76ers restricted player Grimes, who is a Houstonian and his dream is to become a Rockets player. According to a former reporter Marc Stein, Grimes is expected to receive a full middle class with a starting salary of 14.1 million in the free market. After Van Jordan's salary cut, the Rockets now happen to have a middle-class special case. Grimes averaged 14.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3 assists per game in 26 minutes this season, with a shooting percentage of 46.7% and a three-point shooting percentage of 38.5%. In 28 games with the 76ers, Grimes averaged 22 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals, with a shooting percentage of 47%, 37.3% of three-pointers, and 2.9 per game.

From Grimes, you can see the shadow of the next Brunson, which is also lacking opportunities and one stage to lose. After all, he is a rookie with 25 pick in the first round in 2021, and he does not have the development opportunity like Jaylen Green. In fact, in 21 years, many Houston media have suggested winning Grimes at the end of the first round, but Stone, who has 4 first-round picks, chose to win Toffer to please Green, but was unwilling to win Grimes. This is a very standard point guard, 1.96 meters tall, and started out as defense.

Grimes was positioned as the number one defender on the outside by Thibodeau when he was in the Knicks. Now the offense is gradually improving, and it can be called a point guard who is both offensive and defensive. If the Rockets can defeat Grimes, the starting lineup will be terrifying. Point guard Van Jordan, point guard Grimes, Amen, Durant, and center Shin Kyung. The Rockets said they wanted to exchange White Devils for players like Dillon, and Grimes fully met the Rockets' requirements. His ability to solve the role of Green and Dillon in one fell swoop is equivalent to the Rockets' miserable Durant. It is also difficult for 76ers to keep him, and they have to pay luxury tax if they match the offer. The Rockets can sign with middle-class people, relying on Houston and starting positioning to lobby.
