The Rockets big deal is inevitable? The legendary player suggests to chase Durant to win in the present! Green is hard to become a star

Basketball

As one of the best small forwards in the Western Conference this season, Kevin Durant is 36 years old and entering his twilight years of his career, but his personal performance is actually more reassuring than his age. Although the Suns only ranked 11th in the Western Conference this season and failed to participate in the playoffs, Durant did show the strength of a super forward in 62 regular season games.

Average 36.6 minutes, Durant can contribute 26.6 points, 6 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.2 blocks and 0.8 steals, shooting percentage as high as 52.7%, three-point shooting percentage as high as 43%, and free throw shooting percentage as high as 84%. It can be said that despite being seriously injured in his career, Durant's performance on both offense and defense in the Suns is impeccable, but there are problems with the Suns' lineup this season, which is not only the reason why the Bills, a star with extremely low cost performance, but also because the Suns lacks first-class centers in the interior this season, which is also the key reason why the Suns failed to achieve good results this season.

It is now reported that the Rockets may chase Durant this summer, and the Suns management has already put Durant on the trading platform, and they plan to rebuild around Devin Booker. If Durant can be exchanged for some future stars and first-round draft picks, the Suns will be very happy to trade Durant.

In fact, before the trading deadline of this season, the Suns almost sent Durant away, but the Suns owner decided to keep Durant for the playoffs at that time. Unfortunately, things went against their expectations. Although Durant performed well, the Suns still failed to enter the playoffs in the end.

The Rockets want to get Durant is not a day or two, and some experts and former NBA players recommend that the Rockets chase Durant. In addition to famous Perkins, former Hawks All-Star guard Teague also said that the Rockets should strive for the current victory now and not be afraid of big deals. They should boldly chase Durant. Moreover, Durant is in excellent form at the age of 36 and can maintain his peak period for at least four years, which is enough for the Rockets to strive for the championship.

Jaylen Green may become a bargaining chip, not because Jaylen Green is not capable enough, but because his future development prospects are not clear. Although Jaylen Green has indeed performed well in the past four years and has shown certain talent, his growth rate is far below expectations, and it is difficult to determine whether he can grow into a star, or ultimately become a super sixth man like Jamal Crawford, and it is difficult to enter the ranks of stars.

In other words, Teague does not think that Jaylen Green is not capable, but emphasizes that the Rockets should chase superstars in time. After all, there is uncertainty about Jaylen Green's prospects, and the Rockets cannot pin all their hopes on him. In contrast, chasing Durant brings much more certainty to the Rockets, which is also the suggestion of the former NBA star point guard. In fact, this statement makes some sense. In several games in the playoffs, Jaylen Green basically performed at the role player level, and sometimes even performed worse than role players. If the Rockets want to make a difference in recent years, they will inevitably give up Jaylen Green and chase a superstar. Therefore, from multiple suggestions, the Rockets' big deal this summer may be inevitable, and Jaylen Green may become one of the Rockets' main trading chips.
