Will another super team be formed in the NBA.
The U.S. local media "ESPN" reported on the 17th (Korea Standard Time) about Kevin Durant's possible trip to the Houston Rockets.
According to reports, "Houston and Durant are mutually interested in the transfer, and that's why we should pay attention to Houston's performance in this playoffs."
This is truly incredible news. Houston ranked second in the Western Conference this season with 52-30. It was one of the biggest upsets of the season.
What's more surprising is that Houston doesn't have a suitable superstar player. There is Alpharen Sen. who was named the first All-Star this season, but he is coldly far from a superstar. Jaylen Green and Amen Thamson are also promising players, and Fred Benblet is hardly a star.
The reason why Houston made such a great performance lies in the strong defense capability through Udoka's defense tactics. Udoka is a coach who is famous for his defense tactics, and he completely implanted his defense tactics into Houston.
It was the subject of fear for a team facing sticky defensive tactics using tall forwards such as Tamson, Jabari Smith Jr., Dylan Brooks and Tari Eason. Earlier, Benblett skillfully led the defense and completed Udoka's system.
The NBA's best defense, but the problem is offense. The biggest problem is that there is no clear ace. Benblet, Green, Brooks, Tamson, and Sengun are all players who can consistently score double-digit points. However, no player has overwhelming attack power that dominates the game when it explodes. Green is at least green, but he is too undulating to be called an ace.
That's why the rumors between Houston and Durant are interesting. Durant is, in theory, a player who could be Houston's perfect final puzzle piece.
Durant was not in his best condition this season due to aging and injury, but he still had 26.6 points and six rebounds on average. He is still one of the top scorers in the NBA.
On top of that, Durant's reduced energy level and defense capabilities can be filled by other Houston players. They can be perfect partners for each other.
Even the chances of a trade being completed are not small. The reason is that Houston holds future draft picks for Durant's team, the Phoenix Sons. Houston has Phoenix's first-round picks in the 2025, 2027 and 2029 NBA Draft. 메이저놀이터
In other words, if Phoenix sends Durant and declares rebuilding, Houston's trade offer is likely to be the most attractive. Houston even has a lot of trade cards aside from Phoenix's draft picks. There are many tall forwards that are needed for modern basketball, including Thamson, Smith Jr., Eason, and Cam Witmore.
After all, Houston's move in this playoffs is the biggest key. If Houston performs well, it is likely that it will not make changes to the current roster. On the contrary, if Houston is eliminated early, there is a justification for a big trade.
