6-for-1 wins Durant, is it just the first step for the Rockets? After renewing the contract with two veterans, stay an all-around forward

I believe everyone has also seen a lot of trading plans about Durant recently, among which the Rockets have a chance to get Durant with their own chips. Compared with other teams, the Rockets have extremely rich bargaining chips: young players have potential stocks, some players with expired contracts, and players like Dillon Brooks and Van Villet who are playing for the year. In addition, the Rockets have multiple first-round picks, and they hold multiple future first-round picks for the Suns, which is also the Rockets' biggest advantage.

Durant himself has a good relationship with coach Uduka. There was news that many players in the league are willing to play for coach Uduka, so there is no obstacle for Durant to join the Rockets. First, it depends on whether the Rockets are determined to win the 36-year-old superstar; second, it depends on whether the Rockets can give the Suns a generous bargaining chip to satisfy the Suns; third, it mainly depends on whether the Suns are willing to let Durant go. However, according to previous reports, the Suns plan to rebuild around Booker, and star players like Bill and Durant can exchange for future assets to help the team rebuild.

Some media suggested that the Rockets send Smith Jr., Dillon Brooks, Landael, Holiday, as well as this year's first-round draft pick and 27-year first-round draft pick to trade these chips for Durant. This is also equivalent to getting Durant for "six for one". However, according to the media analysis, if the Rockets complete such a trading plan, the lineup will not be perfect, and follow-up actions are needed: the Rockets should use a contract to renew veteran Van Variett and continue to let him be the starting point guard next season.

In their opinion, the Rockets should send a three-year, 70 million contract to re-sign Van Vritte. In addition, the offseason should also be left with veteran Adams who performed well in the playoffs. The Rockets may re-sign Adams with a three-year, 40 million contract. By the time Adams' contract is executed, he will be at least 35 years old, which may be the last contract in his career. In addition, the Rockets should also renew Tari Ethan with a contract of 70 million for four years. After all, Ethan's rookie contract will expire after next season. In addition, the Rockets also need to sign some basic free agents to strengthen the depth of the second team.

So, even if you win Durant, it doesn't mean that the Rockets will win the championship immediately. In addition to Durant, the Rockets' lineup also retains two stars, Shin Kyung and Jaylen Green. In addition, Amen Thompson's rapid growth can also make him the second leader of the Rockets.

If two veterans, Van Vreet and Adams, can be left behind, and Ethan, who has renewed the contract for a long time, the Rockets' lineup will be perfect. Of course, if the Rockets can renew Jeff Green and veteran Tate's contract with a minimum salary, then the lineup formed next season will really have a chance to hit the NBA championship next season.

Of course, all this is just a paper talk and a trading plan, but obviously this trading plan is worth trying - the Rockets did not give away star players to get Durant, and this deal can make the Rockets' offensive ability better. Leaving two veterans, renewing Ethan's contract and signing several veterans with a minimum salary, the Rockets' lineup will no longer have shortcomings next season.
