Original title: Rockets Weekly: Wall may become a New York spare tire and three old will steal the spotlight in the playoffs
Last week was another week of vacation fishing for the Rockets.
However, in the media, there are still sporadic scandals about Hugh City.
First of all, Evan Messi, a not-so-famous American basketball reporter, revealed that he recently interviewed an anonymous NBA executive and got some moves from John Wall’s home.
The line said, “Houston obviously wants to send Wall away and exchange him for some valuable chips. Wall has never been in the Rockets’ long-term plan. If the Knicks want to get him, New York is capable and Space to complete the transaction.”
“The Knicks want to find a major point guard in the offseason. It is not a secret. Although Wall is not their first choice, New York is interested in using Wall as a candidate.”
Interestingly, also last week, New York basketball player Ian Begley revealed that multiple teams have been discussing the introduction of veteran point guard Kyle Lowry this summer, including the Knicks. Comparing the two rumors, it is clear that New York prefers Lowry to join, but it is reasonable to use Wall as a replacement.
The only problem is that Wall’s contract has two years left. The 2021-22 season is $44.31 million, and the 2022-23 season is $47.36 million (with player options). The price of such a spare tire is really high.
Also last week, the Rockets of The Athletic and team reporter Kelly Iko talked about the operation of the Rockets during the offseason while interacting with fans. He did not think that the Rockets would spend a lot of money to chase some expensive stars in the market. , However, Iko also listed several reference programs for rockets.
Iko believes that what the Rockets have is only a $10 million middle class exception, so they will choose some relatively cost-effective players. These people may choose to take less money for more playing time and more important roles. Such as Laurie Markanen, Talen Horton-Tucker.
In addition, the Nuggets’ Porter is also a candidate for the Rockets to pursue. Next year, it may be the right time for Houston to launch an offensive against this young man.
Finally, Iko also emphasized that there are no so-called non-sale items in the Rockets lineup. Even the most valuable “asset” of the team, Christian Wood, will be put on the shelves under the right conditions.
Finally, last week, the Rockets’ old players continued to play in the playoffs. For the second time in his career, Paul stood on the stage of the Western Conference finals, leading the Suns to sweep 4-0, which is even more enviable.
As for the East, Tucker and Capella are going through fierce battles, Tucker and Durant’s desperate fight, and the inside competition between the Emperor and the emperor has become the winner of the series.
However, as the main player of the Nets, James Harden still has a game-free card, and when he will return is still a big question mark. But seeing the Nets side, Owen suffered an injury suspension, Durant became a bare commander, leaving the beard to adjust the opportunity to rest obviously. (Poirot)Return to Sohu to see more
