8 players joined during the offseason! Both the inside and outside are strengthened, and the Rockets signings won the highest rating! Thanks to Stone for giving a gift

This year's offseason, it can be said that the Rockets are one of the teams with the largest changes in lineup. The Rockets not only sent away their two starters last season, Jaylen Green and Dillon Brooks, but also cut three players, Nate Williams, McVeigh and Landale, respectively. The Rockets also sent away their forward Whitmore.

In this way, nearly half of the Rockets' roster last season had left the team, but it has to be said that except Jaylen Green and Dillon Brooks, the rest of the players can be ignored. After all, they were not the main rotation players and core players last season, but the players introduced by the Rockets this summer can be said to be very strong. There are 37-year-old super forward Kevin Durant, as well as Rockets' former center "Piece King" Capela, and Finney Smith who dug directly from the Lakers. Although he is 32 years old, he is in a very good condition. His three-point shooting percentage is as high as 41% last season, and he is also an excellent defensive player.

, and Okogie, who signed with the Rockets for a year at a minimum salary, is also a famous defensive forward. The Rockets also signed three marginal players JD Davidson, Isaiah Crawford and Kevin Harris with three two-way contracts, and left Cam Matthews, who served as the starting forward in the summer league, with a training camp contract.

Although the Rockets left the team last season, it has to be said that the overall number and strength of the players who joined the Rockets are much better. Capela's arrival has strengthened the Rockets' inside line, and Finney Smith, Durant and Okogi have also quickly upgraded the Rockets' forward strength. Even a few outside players with two-way contracts have made the Rockets' back-back depth better, so the Rockets' internal and external lines have been strengthened. Uduka has found 8 new players who are more suitable for him, and the players introduced by the Rockets this summer also won the highest score A score given by ESPN. In ESPN's signing rating, both the Rockets and the Hawks got an A, and they are seen as the most successful team to strengthen this summer.

In the analysis, ESPN expert Kevin Pelton pointed out that this is an important step for the Rockets in the championship battle next season. They won superstar Durant without sacrificing their lineup depth, and the Rockets also signed a new contract of 50 million for two years with Van Vreet, which directly guaranteed the Rockets' backcourt strength, and the arrival of Finney Smith also replaced the vacancy of Dillon Brooks' departure. So this summer, Rockets general manager Rafael Stone is really the best general manager in the league, and he gave the Rockets a big gift.

The Rockets' overall strength has not declined, but their overall strength has been greatly improved, especially on the offensive end, Durant's arrival directly replaced Jaylen Green's unstableness. The Rockets got a super scorer next season. After all, although Durant is old now, he still has the strength to contribute 25 points per game. If he is willing, if the Rockets give Durant more mobile phones, it is not impossible for him to average 30 points next season. Therefore, the Rockets' successful signing this summer is also thanks to Manager Stone for his efforts.
