On May 20, the NBA playoffs continued, but for teams that were eliminated early, they are about to start planning for next season. The Rockets played very well in the regular season this year and achieved the second record in the Western Conference, but they were eliminated in the first round of the playoffs, which also exposed many problems, especially the lack of a final decision at critical moments. The carefully trained Shin Kyung and Jaylen Green do not seem to have the potential to become superstars in tough battles. All important figures of the Rockets in the offseason will trade a superstar who is in their year to improve the team's shortcomings. Recently, US media have also advised the Rockets to see what the plan is today.
Today, Celtics, Bill Simmons, suggested that the Celtics make a deal with the Rockets in the show. He gave a trading plan, which was: the Celtics sent Jaylen Brown and Holiday, and obtained Van Vreet from the Rockets, Smith Jr., Ethan and the No. 10 pick this year. For this transaction plan, let’s first see if it matches from the perspective of salary. Jaylen Brown's annual salary is now $57 million, and he renewed his contract with the Celtics for 5 years. This means that the annual salary of more than $60 million per year will not end until the 28-29 season. Holiday still has a three-year contract of 100 million yuan. In contrast, the Rockets Van Jordan has a team option of 44.9 million, Smith Jr. has a $9.77 million, and Ethan has a $3.7 million option.
Therefore, from the perspective of salary matching alone, the Celtics gave about 90 million players in this trading plan, while the Rockets got about 58 million US dollars, which could save 32 million space. Therefore, the Celtics' intention of this trading plan is to save money and reduce future salary pressure, mainly to make Brown get rid of Holiday's negative asset. The Celtics were reimbursed for the season due to Tatum's torn ligament this year, so they were eliminated in the second round of the game. What's more important is that Tatum's future health is unknown. The Celtics' salary is now exploding. If they don't win the championship, they must trade to release salary pressure. Therefore, Holiday is the most likely player to be sold, but they must be bound to a big deal.
Tatum will not leave the trade if it is injured. It is also possible that Jaylen Brown, one of the dual cores, will leave the team, otherwise there is no way to talk about the release of salary pressure from the transaction. From the Rockets' perspective, it is indeed necessary to have a superstar. Jaylen Brown won the MVP in the Finals, but his shortcomings are that the annual salary of $60 million in the future is too scary, and if it is not done properly, it will lock the Rockets' space. In addition, Holiday's ability declines too seriously. With 30 million, it is only a level of more than 10 million. It is purely a negative asset, and the risk of taking over is too high. As for the chips the Rockets sent, it is reasonable. Van Jordan's level is average. He will send him away without cutting the salary and renewing the contract. Smith Jr. and Ethan are the second best among the seven sons. The Rockets still retain Shin Kyung, Green and Amen. It is a good choice. The only risk of this plan is that the salary pressure in the future is too great, so it depends on whether the Rockets dare to gamble.
