4-year big contract! The Lakers are in danger, the Rockets are poaching the strong player, and Stone s magic operation continues

NBA offseason players have relaxed and have a rare holiday. However, it is extremely busy for the management and the general manager. Dealing, renewing, drafting and signing free agents, every job is important. Especially for young teams, they have flexible salary space and greater operational space. The Rockets have been very active this year and have been doing magical operations in the offseason. 4-year big contract! The Lakers are in danger, the Rockets are poaching the strong player, and Stone's magic operation continues.

The Rockets are the second strongest in the Western Conference this year, and the overall strength of the team is very strong. Shin Kyung and Amen made excellent personal performances in the playoffs, proving that they are the core of the team's future, so their status is very stable. VanVleet was originally a premium contract, but this year's playoffs, he averaged 18.7 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.4 assists per game, and a 43.5% three-point shooting percentage. He has the ability to play tough battles and his three-pointers in the playoffs are also trustworthy.

So during the offseason, the Rockets rejected Van Vleet's $44.9 million team option and then reached a contract renewal with Van Jordan, with a contract value of $50 million for two years. Van Vlite, who has an annual salary of 44.9 million is not worth it, but Van Vlite, who has an annual salary of 25 million, is a high-quality point guard. This is the first magical operation.

Jaylen Green received a big contract last year, but was completely lost this year's playoffs. He averaged only 13.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 37% and a three-point shooting percentage of 29%. Except for one outbreak, he scored 38 points, and the other six scored below 12 points, which was extremely bad. So Stone traded Jaylen Green, Dillon, a first-round pick and five second-round picks for Durant. He sent Green away and traded Durant, which can be called a god-like operation.

Immediately afterwards, Stone provided a contract for Jabbarry Smith Jr., worth a five-year, $122 million in length, with an average salary of less than $25 million. In today's era, this price is already great value. Jabbarri is only 21 years old this year, and his future growth will be a great contract.

It is worth mentioning that the Rockets' operations are not over yet. According to well-known reporter Stein, the Rockets are interested in Lakers forward Finney Smith. Finney Smith gave up the $15.4 million player option next season to test the free market. Smith averaged 8.7 points and 3.9 rebounds per game in the regular season this year, with a three-point shooting percentage of 41.1%. He has excellent physical talent, first-class defense, and stable three-pointers. He is an excellent 3D small forward. The Lakers also intend to keep Finney Smith. Now the Lakers, Clippers and Rockets all have full middle class.

However, the Rockets are full of sincerity and intend to provide Finney Smith with a full 4-year middle-class contract, which will be worth more than $50 million. You should know that Smith is already 32 years old, which is most likely his last big contract. He jumped out of the contract to seek a long contract. After all, Smith is just a role player. If the Lakers can only provide a 1-2-year contract, then Smith will most likely choose to join the Rockets. After all, no one can't get along with the money.

In this way, Stone's magical operation continues. Next season, the Rockets will also have the opportunity to line up the combination of Van Jordan + Amen + Durant + Finney Smith + Shin Kyung. This lineup has both inside and outside, offense and defense, and also has a key player. He will definitely have a chance to attack the championship.
