Average of 14+6+2! The Rockets can chase the Timberwolves and over six centers? They have both shooting and defense, and the No. 5 position is upgraded

The key reason why the Rockets performed poorly in the playoffs is not that defense and confrontation are not as good as their opponents, but that there is something wrong with the offense. The shooting percentage is low, the offensive tactics lack coordination and creativity, and the Rockets even have a mess of free throws, the most basic scoring method. The offensive end cannot be opened, no matter how brave you defend, you can't defeat your opponent. The Rockets were finally easily eliminated by the Warriors in the tiebreak battle.

For the Rockets, chasing superstars with independent scoring ability this summer is the first choice. But it is so difficult for the Rockets to get superstars like Antetokounmpo or Durant! Instead of breaking up the team and chasing superstars, it is better to strengthen the shortcomings, which is more conducive to the stability of the Rockets - after all, the Rockets are already the second team in the West, and it is not wise to split up the team and chase superstars again. No one can guarantee the Rockets' record next season.

NBA expert Alec Ilia provided the Rockets with a set of trading advice. He believes the Rockets should chase the Timberwolves' former Super 6th man Naz Reed. As the number one core of the Timberwolves’ substitute, Naz Reid has performed well in recent seasons, and he also became the league’s best sixth man last season, and he will be an unrestricted free agent this summer. If the Rockets can give him a satisfactory offer, Naz Reed does not rule out that he will consider the Rockets - after all, the Rockets' overall strength is enough to hit the championship. If he joins, he will become the first substitute next season for the Rockets All-Star Center Shin Kyung, and even play a more important tactical role than the Timberwolves. Especially considering that Adams may not necessarily stay with the Rockets next season, chasing a new center with more scoring and athletic capabilities has become an option for the Rockets.

The expert believes that the Rockets should look for a reliable big shooter to join the team, and the 2024 league's best sixth man, Naz Reed, is the best choice. Not only can he provide reliable scoring in the second team, providing depth for the No. 5, he also has strong physical confrontation and defensive abilities.

The Timberwolves are actually willing to keep Naz Reed, but this summer's offseason, the Timberwolves has three players' contracts expired. In addition to Reed, there are Nickel Alexander Walker and star power forward Julius Randle. Leaving Randall seems to be the first choice, and if so, the Timberwolves don't have much salary space to leave Naz Reed.

In this way, Naz Reid can find a new team. The Rockets are in the rising period, and the core lineup is very young, and they are only a few excellent shooters away from going further in the playoffs. Center Naz Reed, who can shoot, defend and have no lack of confrontation, is the Rockets' best choice for the offseason.

If the Rockets can offer a reasonable contract, Naz Reed can completely become Shin Kyung's first substitute next season and become the core of the second team. After all, Naz Reed's shooting percentage this season was 46.2%, his three-point shooting percentage reached 38%, and his offensive methods were comprehensive, defeating veteran Adams on the offensive end. Once Adams can't stay at the team, chasing Naz Reed is the best solution for the Rockets.
