George suggests Lillard joining the Rockets: Houston has enough lineup depth and he doesn t have to take on too many heavy responsibilities

On July 8, on the latest podcast episode, George talked about Lillard's whereabouts. He thinks the Rockets are a team that is very suitable for Lillard. The host said: "Lillard has no problem, but no matter where he goes when he comes back, his role will definitely change. Which team do you think is suitable for him now?"

George replied: "Actually, it's OK wherever he goes, but I think Houston is good."

"The Rockets' lineup is deep enough, and he doesn't have to take on too much responsibility. There are inside players like Shin Kyung who can pass the ball, shooters like Durant, top defenders like Thompson, and Jabarri- Smith has many young players like this, so he doesn't have to carry the banner. VanVleet can play as a substitute, or both of them play together. I think Houston is very suitable for him. "

" He will have players with height and arm spans around him. If your point guard is short, give him some players of height to strengthen the defense. I think this is a very suitable choice for him."

George also talked about Lillard's mentality in recovery using himself as an example. "I had a serious ankle injury before, and medical technology was not as good as it is now. How long did it take to adjust your mentality when you recovered from injury? I think Lillard will also face this problem. No matter where he goes, if he signs a two-year contract, he can at least stay with the team, even if he can't play in the first year, he can still integrate into the team system."

It is reported that there are as many teams interested in Lillard as double digits. The Bucks officially announced the layoff of Lillard today. According to previous reports, the Bucks used extended clauses to cut him off and paid Lillard's remaining $113 million in five years. Previous reports said that the Celtics and Lillard were interested in each other, and the old boss, the Trail Blazers, is also one of Lillard's potential next players.
