Experts advise the Rockets: You can chase the Pelicans freeback in the offseason

Now the next home of Suns superstar Kevin Durant is about to be announced. According to reports, Durant may join the new team and bid farewell to Phoenix in the next week. In this way, the Suns should be able to obtain some draft picks, young players, and expired contracts to free up salary space. The Rockets are one of Durant's potential next homes, but there are also some teams vying for Durant, such as the Spurs, the Timberwolves, and even the Miami Heat. So, the Rockets may not be able to get Durant. If the Rockets fail to get Durant and Antetokounmpo stays in Milwaukee, then for the Rockets, they will basically miss the superstar this summer.

In fact, the Rockets also have a new way to strengthen, which is to chase a player who is easy to use and inexpensive from the free agent market, such as the Wanderer Bruce Brown in the NBA League. He played for the Pelicans this season and averaged 8 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists per game. He is one of the most comprehensive players in the league. He helped Jokic win the championship in the Nuggets. Later, he switched to other teams for a large contract. Brown changed several teams over the past few years and has now become a free agent.

NBA expert Gillian Wright suggested that the Rockets should boldly chase Brown in the offseason this summer, because many of Brown's characteristics and advantages are suitable for the Rockets and can also help the Rockets quickly improve their strength. He believes Brown is a qualified organizer who can be a substitute for Van Vreet.

In the Rockets' Van Vreet was injured and absent for one month this season, Uduka was the only point guards, Holiday and Amen Thompson, who could hold the ball and organize the offense, and he even had to transform Jaylen Green into a point guard and give him a chance to start. So, next season, Amen Thompson will appear in the front line, while Jaylen Green will focus more on scoring, so the Rockets need a playmaker apart from Van Vreet. Bruce Brown is such a player.

The second advantage is that Bruce Brown is a versatile player, claiming to be able to defend from one to five, which is a bit similar to Amen Thompson, so Bruce Brown is the best choice for Amen Thompson to find a suitable substitute veteran. The third advantage is Brown's playoff experience. He once won the championship with the Nuggets. He was also the starter of the Nuggets at that time and performed quite well on the way to the championship.

Finally, Brown had in-depth cooperation with Jokic back then, and the two cooperated well on the inside and outside. This expert suggested that the Rockets have Alperen Shinkin, known as "Jokic Jr.", if they can get Brown and continue the internal and external tactics of the Nuggets that year, then the Rockets have a chance to become the next Nuggets team.

Although the Rockets do not have much salary space, a middle-class contract can still be taken out. If Brown can be signed with such a contract, although the Rockets may not be able to win superstars this summer, their overall defense and external strength will be improved. Bruce Brown, who has become a free agent, is available for the Rockets to chase this offseason. With four major advantages, Brown can sign the Rockets.
