The Rockets used the tallest tower formation in team history and narrowly beat the Pelicans in the preseason to set a record

In a fierce NBA preseason contest, the Houston Rockets defeated the New Orleans Pelicans with a thrilling score of 130-128. What sparked even more heated discussion among fans was that local media discovered that the Rockets' starting five broke the team's height record.

Bladeaux, the team reporter, revealed through social platforms that when the five senior players Amen, Durant, Jabari Smith, Shen Jing and Adams appeared on the court at the same time, this configuration created the Rockets' highest starting lineup in the 57 years since the team was founded. This observation immediately sparked heated discussion in basketball data analysis circles.

Frontcourt combination: Adams (2.11 meters) + Shen Jing (2.11 meters)

Wings: Jabari Smith (2.11 meters) + Durant (2.08 meters)

Backcourt command Official: Amen (2.01 meters)

It is worth noting that this super-standard lineup with an average height of more than 2.08 meters has shown amazing offensive and defensive flexibility in actual combat. Although it is a pre-season game, it has already released a strong signal for tactical reform. Basketball experts generally believe that the new coach's formation experiments may bring more tactical possibilities to the Rockets in the new season.
