The Rockets roster is released! The inside and forwards are so rich, Stone can trade 2 people and strengthen them

The NBA enters the offseason, and the Rockets are the big winners. They get Durant from the Suns by trading chips such as Jaylen Green. Next, Stone has many magical operations, such as signing Finney Smith for 4 years, $53 million, winning Capela for 3 years, $21.5 million, renewing Adams for 3 years, $39 million, Van Vritte for 2 years, $50 million, and $122 million in five years, and Jabary Smith for 5 years, and so on. The Rockets are now strong. It is basically certain that they are at least second in the West in the new season, and they even have the chance to compete with the Thunder for the top of the Western Conference. The latest combat power ranking shows that the Rockets rank third. The top 2 are the Thunder and the Nuggets, and the US media believes that the Rockets are stronger than any team in the Eastern Conference. Looking back on last season, the reason why the Rockets became second in the West is because of their strong defense, especially their forward position, and now there are more Finney Smith and Capela, which is really armed to the teeth. The Rockets' shortcomings last season were offense, especially when they often lost their chains at critical moments, resulting in losing. However, Durant's joining perfectly solved this problem. Of course, Death is indeed old and his physical strength cannot keep up, so the Rockets' tactics in the new season must be that young players will take the lead and Durant takes over the fourth quarter.

The Suns cannot play record because they have no defense, and secondly, they lack chemical reactions. These situations do not exist in the Rockets. Durant, as a tough guy, can perfectly adapt. As of now, the Rockets' lineup list is Durant, Amen Thompson, Shinkyung, Ethan, Van Vreet, Jabarry Smith, Finney Smith, Capela, Adams, Whitmore, Shepard, Jeff Green, Holiday and Tate. It is expected that the starting lineup will be Van Jordan + Amen + Durant + Jabarry + Shinkyung. In theory, the Rockets' lineup still has shortcomings, that is, point guard. Van Jordan is too short and is easy to be targeted on the defensive end. Fortunately, Van Jordan is barely enough.

Last season, Van Jordan was prone to getting ahead. When the team fell behind, he would make crazy moves, regardless of his teammates. If he could make a shot, it would be okay. If he didn't make a shot, he would only hurt the team. Now with Durant, Van Jordan needs to reduce the number of shots, organize and defend well, and leave the offense to Durant, Jabarri and Shin Kyung. In addition, when playing against the Warriors in the playoffs, Uduka saw the power of the double towers, so Shin Kyung and Adams will be on the court for a lot of time in the new season. Another thing that must be mentioned is that Shin Kyung, Adams and Capela are all rebounding monsters. The Rockets want to make offensive rebounds and defensive rebounds first in the league. In fact, it was the first in the league last season.

In terms of formation, Uduka can line up the "Death Five Front Line" at the critical moment, Amen + Ethan + Durant + Jabbarri + Shin Jing. If Shin Jing drags his legs on the defensive end, then it will be Finney Smith. This lineup has no shortcomings in the defensive end, which can be called a nightmare for the opponent. The important thing is to have rebounds and strong offense. Overall, there are too many lineups that Uduka can use in the new season. The Rockets still have the possibility of strengthening the key later. According to the latest reports, Stone plans to trade Whitmore and Tate. After all, the White Devil was often abandoned last season, and there is no position in the new season. The White Devil's offense is unstable and has poor defensive habits.

This is the main reason why Uduka doesn't like to use him, as for Tate, he simply can't play the ball. The Rockets signed Finney Smith to use the full middle class. Capela signed first and then exchanged. The Rockets gave the Hawks a second round swap right and cash, but did not use anyone else, because Durant's transaction needs to wait until Jaylen Green's contract lifted the restrictions before it was officially announced, so the Rockets may add Capela to Durant's transaction. In other words, when Durant's transaction is fully announced, it will not only involve the Rockets and Suns teams, but will participate in multiple parties. Overall, the Rockets are undoubtedly the big winner. Jaylen Green sent to the Suns and Booker to the backcourt, and it is estimated that the West will be at the bottom.

Durant was interviewed recently when he was a guest on James and Nash's "Brain of the Field". When talking about joining the Rockets, Death said: "Let's wait and see. When we start playing in the new season, we will see what changes have happened to the team. This is a new opportunity. I am a contender. I come here (the Rockets) just want to win. I have two championship rings in my career. I want to reach this height again." Durant's meaning is very obvious. He vows to help the Rockets win the championship. As mentioned earlier, the Rockets' lineup is impeccable. I look forward to their success in the new season.
