Sweat forward! Two veterans of the Rockets appeared in the training hall and started alternative training. Are there any chances to stay in the team?

The Rockets are now full of talents in their second team. In fact, the two inside veterans, Landale and Jeff Green, who were originally major rotations this season, have basically become marginal players. Although they have many opportunities to play, compared with their first year of joining the Rockets, it is obvious that whether it is Landale or Jeff Green, the opportunities this season are not as good as last season.

After all, the Rockets' inside line already has three young players, Ethan, Smith Jr., and Amen Thompson, and Tate and Whitmore of the Rockets can serve as forwards. In addition, another Rockets center Adams also occupied a lot of playing time in the team. So in this season's rotation, Jocklandare and Jeff Green's playing time are not as good as before.

However, when several Rockets players were injured, Langdale and Jeff Green were able to stand up, win some playing time, and even occupy the starting position. During this offseason, Jeff Green's contract has officially expired. I wonder if he will renew his contract with the Rockets. Langdale is a non-guaranteed contract next season. It is easy for the Rockets to keep him, just continue to execute his 8 million annual salary contract.

But if the Rockets want to improve their overall strength and improve their salary space, then laying off Landale or trading Landale is also a good choice. Even if Landare's non-guaranteed contract is cut, it will not cause any losses to the Rockets.

However, it is obvious that 29-year-old Langdale and 38-year-old Jeff Green still want to continue playing for the Rockets. Although the two players did not have many opportunities in the playoffs and had not even been able to enter the rotation lineup, in the regular season, the two of them were the best additions to the Rockets' inside and forward line. Langdale is able to make three-point shots and mid-range shots, and is also a good basket protector. Jeff Green is also very good at shooting, and he also has rich playoff experience. Three years ago, he even won the NBA championship with the Nuggets.

So now, all Jeff Green needs to do is sign a new contract with the Rockets as soon as possible, and what Langdale needs to do is convince the Rockets not to sack him next season. After all, Adams is uncertain about staying or leaving. If 29-year-old center Randale can be left behind, the Rockets' center position will be guaranteed next season, and Shin Kyung will also have the best substitute.

Now, the two veterans did not go on vacation or have fun after the playoffs. The two appeared at the Rockets' training hall and started alternative training. Instead of doing strength training normally or ball training in the stadium, the two of them started boxing in sweat. In fact, last summer, Rockets center Shin Kyung and another veteran Marianovic had boxing training, and it looked pretty good. Now that Langdale and Jeff Green are doing boxing training together, they can also improve themselves in terms of strength, flexibility, reaction speed and ability to fight. The Rockets may be chasing a superstar this summer, and if that happens, neither Jeff Green nor Langdale will necessarily stay on the team. But if the Rockets want to continue to reuse young players and maintain their current roster, then Langdale and Jeff Green are expected to appear in the Rockets' roster next season. Judging from the hardworking and self-disciplined training of the two of them, the Rockets have hope of keeping them.
