Van Vleet assists Antetokounmpo? Murphy airborne Houston?

Before the 25-26 season officially started, Rockets players entered the mutual praise mode. Amen Thompson praised Durant when participating in the "The Young Man & The Three" program: "He is the best scorer in history and one of the best players in the league in active service." Jabbarry Smith Jr. was amazed at Amen Thompson's athleticism in an interview with the Houston Chronicle. He could kiss the rim without having to do his best to run. He will work towards awards for the best defensive player and the fastest-progress player in the new season. Shin Kyung is playing in the European Championships and has led the Turkish men's basketball team to the quarterfinals with a full victory. He has an advantage in his direct conversation with Jokic. Many Rockets players praised Shin Kyung's performance on social media.
Recently, the US media "NBA Analysis" suggested that the Bucks management pursued the starting point guard of the Rockets Van Vleet in the offseason this summer. General Manager Horst introduced the Wizards star Kuzma on the deadline of the last trade, but it turned out that this was a failed deal. Not only did Kuzma failed to help the Bucks win the championship, but instead became a high-paying and low-energy player because of his inefficient performance. The media provided a three-party trading offer to the Bucks, Rockets and Pelicans. If the negotiations go well, Kuzma will be sent to New Orleans and the Rockets will be compensated by Murphy. The specific trading plan is: 1. The Bucks sent Kuzma + the 2031 Bucks first round pick and got Van Vleet; 2. The Rockets sent Van Vleet + the 2027 Suns first round pick (1-4 pick protection) to get Trey Murphy; 3. The Pelicans sent Trey Murphy to get Kuzma + the 2027 Suns first round pick and the 2031 Bucks first round pick.
With Amen Thompson and Shepard growing rapidly, it is not impossible for Rockets management to send VanVleet to. Because the salary cut is as high as US$20 million, Van Jordan's ability is basically matched with his annual salary. Bucks general manager Horst waived All-Star point guard Lillard this summer. Reimbursement for season due to injury is only one of the reasons. Another reason is that cousin's playing style is not compatible with Antetokounmpo. Under their leadership, the Bucks find it difficult to attack the championship, so general manager Horst resolutely waived Lillard. The consequence of this is that the Bucks management cannot find his replacement in a short period of time. Head coach Rivers had to use the Rockets to abandon the Rockets in the new season. Porter Jr., the protagonist of the domestic violence incident, but his ability is limited, so it is a bit difficult to serve as the starting point guard.
VanVleet is a championship-level point guard who averaged 35.2 minutes per game last season and scored 14.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.6 steals. However, this is not a reflection of his real strength. In order to connect the entire team and train young players, Van Jordan took the initiative to reduce the number of shots. He will not stand up to solve the problem when the game is deadlocked and no one in the Rockets can take on the heavy responsibility of scoring. The playoffs with the Warriors are the best proof. For the Pelicans, Murphy is a small forward with both talent and strength. He has outstanding athletic ability, superb shooting skills, and his scoring is as easy as taking pictures. However, the Pelicans are in the reconstruction stage. The owner Benson has publicly told the media that the Pelicans have no non-sale products. As long as the price is reasonable, even Zion, Murray, Murphy, and Herbert Jones may become the target of the transaction.
