Rockets offseason trends, Antetokounmpo becomes a potential target, loses interest in Booker, and has 2 decisions

The Rockets only played one round in the playoffs this year, which is really a little less for the Rockets. There is no way to do this. It is normal for young teams to enter the playoffs for the first time and will not go far. The Thunder also got to where they are today step by step. For the Rockets, they will have to operate well this offseason. So what are the recent updates of the Rockets? Rockets' offseason trends, Antetokounmpo has become a potential target and has lost interest in one person, and there are two decisions.

What we want to say here is that the news about the Rockets is based on the information disclosed by Kelly Iko, the Rockets record, and it is also very credible. The first thing we need to note is that the Rockets still regard Antetokounmpo as a potential target. In fact, Antetokounmpo has been quite lively recently. Antetokounmpo and the Raptors are also getting along. Everyone knows this, but when no deal is reached, everything is possible.

It is actually understandable that the Rockets marked Antetokounmpo as a potential target. The Rockets are really missing a star. As for this matter, there is still a possibility of operation. The Rockets have a large number of draft picks and young people who can be traded. If the Rockets really want to rush, they can offer enough quotations. A player like Antetokounmpo is definitely worth spending a lot of money to chase. After all, Antetokounmpo is still in its peak period, and the Rockets also need such a player.

Also we need to know that Kelly Iko also disclosed a message, that is, the Rockets have been following Booker before, but now they are not interested. If you want to guess the reason, it may be that Booker is not suitable for the Rockets. To put it bluntly, the annual salary is too high, which can easily break the Rockets' existing balance. For the Rockets, they need to take care of young people on the one hand, and on the other hand, they need to have a flexible salary structure.

Of course, the Rockets have two more decisions. The first decision is that the Rockets will reuse Shepard in the new season, and team insiders believe Shepard has extremely high potential. As for Shepard, the guy also showed his abilities in the regular season, but the team really didn't have time to allocate him. The Rockets can give the guys time next season, after all, some player contracts will expire, and Shepard will have a chance at that time. The second decision is related to Xiao Jia and Ethan. As we all know, these two people can renew their contracts in advance during the offseason. If there is no renewal, the Rockets are willing to match any offer next summer. In other words, the Rockets want to regard these two people as important components of the future. In fact, judging from the performance of the two, they can't get the maximum salary, but the contract will not be small either. Let’s see how the Rockets operate during the offseason and how they stay in the team.
