Durant went to the Rockets.

exchanged Jaeger, Dillon and No. 10 picks, five second rounds: 38, and Durant is still enough to play.

Durant had trading rumors during the All-Star period. At that time, I felt that the Rockets were not in a hurry to dismantle the team and replace him: I was young, and the chemistry was just right, let's take a look.

After losing to the Warriors, the Rockets also understood the value of Amen, Shin Kyung, and the defensive group. Jaeger's ups and downs. It's ready to move.

Durant is no longer in his peak period. No ball movement and holding the ball are not outstanding. But he is still almost the most certain and purest in basketball history. "Submit a ball to him, I want to hear the Nets' slam."

This is exactly what the Rockets lack: they have been struggling for too many times, and they have to rely on Jaeger/VanVleet to force one.

Of course, Durant needs to play with the ball, but it is not as troublesome as Jaeger's half-time pick-and-roll.

Goodly enough, losing Jaeger and Dillon, the Rockets retained the young frame. In the Warriors series, the Rockets showed that Jabbarri and Ethan replaced Dillon, the effect was not bad. The long formation once gave the Warriors a headache.

Now Dillon is gone, and there are still Amen and Ethan on the wing defense. In addition, a hidden favorable point: Durant + Jabbarri + Shinkyung, three quasi-seven-foot men, all with size baskets. The Rockets' frontcourt is unprecedentedly rich. Small, large, and space can be used.

This is probably the most lively and defensive frontcourt Durant has ever partnered with. Durant's existence should open up many possibilities for Shin Kyung and Amen, and teach Jabari many things by the way.

Just left Jaeger, probably the Rockets had to dig in the backcourt: Durant can fight on the top wing side, Shen Jing can go online to support, Amen can push back, but the team still needs to have a positional battle to start the line.

Should we continue to explore Amen's ball holding, or to dig out the treasure defenders that Uduka refused to use? have no idea.

This is the most lively forward group Durant has ever encountered - and it is also the most star-less backcourt he has ever encountered. For the time being?

So far, the third young master of the Thunder have played for the Rockets.
