The Rockets did not win the draft in this lottery ceremony, only received the No. 4 pick, which is too different from the expectations of the team management. This means that the Rockets will not be able to compete with Venbanyama.
According to management's current plan, the team mainly wants to trade big-name stars this offseason, so it is likely to consider trading the No. 4 pick. In particular, the team has more than 60 million in salary space and a large number of high-quality trade chips, which are enough to help the Rockets rise in the new season.
According to the Rockets' current recruitment plan, the team's main recruitment targets this summer are Jaylen Brown and James Harden, two big stars. As long as these two top stars can be brought to the squad, the team's new season is still worth looking forward to.
After all, with the current Rockets' roster configuration, talent is enough, and there is a lack of strong top stars to lead. Therefore, as long as the Rockets can make reasonable use of the current existing salary space and existing high-quality trade chips, the Rockets will definitely have a very successful outcome this offseason.
Jaylen Brown made the All-NBA Second Team this season, and he will hopefully get a five-year, $295 million super-max contract this year. For the Rockets, although it is difficult to introduce him, with Jaylen Brown's top star attributes that integrate offense and defense, Jaylen Brown is still fully worthy of the team's management.
After all, looking at the entire league, there is no big star who is better suited to the current Rockets team than Jaylen Brown. What's more, the current head coach has coached Jaylen Brown, and once he can come to the Rockets, he will be perfectly integrated into the team system.
How can I sign Jaylen Brown? The Rockets are planning to send Porter, Tate, Shin Kyung, and four future first-round picks to offer the Celtics Jaylen Brown and Robert Williams. Once the deal goes through, the Rockets are bound to rise in the new season.
Jaylen Brown's individual ability is undoubted, coupled with the addition of a top defensive titan Robert Williams, then the Rockets' balance inside and outside this season, both offensive and defensive, will rise to a higher level with the arrival of these two stars.
Once Jaylen Brown can come to the Rockets, then he will become the core of the Rockets, don't look at his current scoring statistics with the Celtics are not as good as Tatum, but can give Jaylen Brown enough shots, he will definitely not be worse than Tatum.
In particular, his role on the field completely transcends Tatum's existence. Coupled with the fact that an interior player like Robert Williams can be obtained in this transaction, the Rockets' long-standing lack of interior defensive strength will also be solved. It is worth mentioning that even if the Rockets still want to offer Harden for 160 million in four years, Harden has previously revealed that if he wants to join a team, unless the team has the ability to win the championship, he also wants to get more rights. If Harden can accept the signing offer made by the Rockets, then the Rockets will definitely consider giving Harden a higher status. When Harden returns to the Rockets to join forces with Jaylen Brown, then the young Rockets team is destined to be optimistic about the new season under the leadership of these two top stars, and even has the hope of competing for a championship in the future.
