The Rockets only need to complete these 3 signings and 2 deals in the offseason to upgrade the roster and enter the championship team next season!
1. Guard: Harden (signed for 4 years, 160 million)
Signing Harden is the stated goal of the Rockets, the Rockets can provide Harden with a maximum salary contract, but also give Harden the ball he needs, if Harden thinks that there is a chance to win the championship back to the Rockets, then he will sign the Rockets.
2. Forward: Grant (signed for 3 years, 75 million)
The contract is in line with Grant's current worth, who has proven not to be a star of a team, but who can still help the team on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.
3.3D: Beverley (mini mid-class signing)
Beverley and Harden's backcourt partnership is worth looking forward to, Beverley's home is in the post, and returning to Houston at the end of his career is something Beverley and the Rockets would love to see.
4. Rockets and Nets 7-for-2 trade
The Rockets sent Porter Jr., Martin Jr., Tate, Taitai, 2 Nets first-round and 1 Nets first-round swap to get Nets team Bridges and Claxton, and if the Nets decide to rebuild, this deal is acceptable to both parties.
5. Rockets and Eagles 4-for-1 deal
The Rockets sent Shenjing, Garuba, Topher and the 2024 Warriors second-round pick to get Hawks center Capela, Capela's tactical status with the Hawks has declined, and returning to the Rockets to join forces with Harden is a better choice.
After 3 signings and 2 trades, the Rockets have basically completed the rebuild, and this summer they will be selected in Ventanyama, so the Rockets can form a 10-man rotation next season (benches in parentheses):
Point guard: Harden (Beverley)
Quarterback: Bridges (Jaylen Green)
Young: Grant (Ethan)
Omae: Bunbanyama (Smith Jr.)
Centre: Capela (Claxton)
The Rockets can almost book a ticket to the finals, with the bench as strong as the starters, Harden, Jaylen Green and Bridges on the offensive end, and stronger on the defensive end, with Beverley, Ethan, and Grant on the outside and Smith Jr., Capela and Claxton on the inside.
