Isn t it cost-effective for the Rockets to introduce superstars? Expert tips: vigorously train two new players, and both offense and defense have been improved

The Rockets need to introduce a superstar on the offensive end. After all, everyone knows that, whether it is Jaylen Green, Shin Kyung or Van Vreet, these three core players are not very good on the offensive end in the playoffs. Although Van Vreet and Shin Kyung's data look good, their scoring efficiency is very low and their shooting percentage is not high, especially the overall free throw shooting percentage of the Rockets is speechless. If the Rockets' free throw shooting percentage is more accurate, the Warriors will not eventually defeat the Rockets and eliminate them.

So, for the Rockets, as Uduka said, the team now needs a top scorer and a reliable free thrower. If the Rockets can get such a player, then the Rockets will be sure to win the battle next season, whether they meet the Warriors or other teams.

The Rockets' introduction of superstars seems to be the easiest and fastest choice, but it has to be said that introducing superstars is not so easy. Whether it is introducing Durant or Antetokounmpo, the Rockets will have to break up their current lineup and even use one-third of the players in the lineup to trade superstars. Superstars have a chance to get it, but after getting it, the Rockets' lineup depth will be severely weakened, which may be an option that is not worth the effort.

Therefore, it seems that introducing superstars is not worth it, and the Rockets management seems to have expected it. Rockets general manager Raphael Stone has repeatedly emphasized that maintaining the integrity and continuity of the lineup may be the best choice, and giving Rockets young players a year or two to see where their ceiling is. This may be a more reliable solution than introducing superstars.

, and NBA expert Ryan Diamond also gave advice to the Rockets. He believes that the Rockets can completely train two new players themselves to make up for the shortcomings in the lineup. In the opinion of this expert, Jaylen Green is still the best Rockets scorer this season, but although he is the first choice on the scoring end, his performance fluctuations have always been a huge problem in the past few seasons.

So outside Jaylen Green, the Rockets need a reliable scorer and shooter to stand up and support the team. The expert believes that Rockets' Jaylen Green may become a top scorer in the future, but he is not yet, and he needs to increase his muscles and improve his ability to fight.

The Rockets are now a very young team, and waiting is the best choice. Because Rockets rookie Reed Sheppard showed excellent shooting skills as a starter and could soon become the scorer Uduka wanted. Another newcomer, Smith Jr., will also be the key to the Rockets' victory. He is a comprehensive and flexible big man who can defend from No. 1 to No. 5, and can also find his position on the offensive end.

Smith Jr.'s impact on defense is very subtle, but should not be ignored. He is an excellent rebounder. If he is given enough opportunities, he can contribute double-double per game, he can move quickly, be able to jump shots and make three-pointers, all he needs is more playing time, and he will also be an important part of the Rockets' future victory.

So for the Rockets, this expert's advice is very reliable: there is no need to chase any superstars, as long as you trust Shepard on the offensive end, trust Smith Jr. on the defensive end, and give Smith Jr. more playing time and mobile phone opportunities, then the problem of the Rockets' inability to score will be solved, and the Rockets' offense and defense will be improved at that time.
