Experts recommend the Rockets to chase the Jazz two main players, four may become bargaining chips, and give multiple draft picks to lose slightly

It can be seen from this year's playoffs that even if the Rockets lineup is full, due to insufficient core quality, once the game enters the decisive moment, the Rockets will offense and lose the game, which will directly lead to losing the game. Then by this summer, the Rockets must consider more offensive talents in signing players. In a program, local experts advised the Rockets to pursue the Jazz two main players, Lauri Markanen and Colin Sexton. From the specific plan, the Rockets 4 may become a bargaining chip, including Jaylen Green, Dillon Brooks, Cam Whitmore and Jock Landale.
Lauri Markanen completed a contract renewal with the Jazz last summer, which made him unable to be traded and could only stay in the Jazz formation. Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that Laurie Markanen is not very enterprising on the court. After all, the Jazz are in the reconstruction period, and you will miss the playoffs even if you try hard. Moreover, Lauri Markanen's big contract has been obtained, so there is no need to fight too much. If you are injured during this period, the loss will definitely not be worth the effort in the end. The Jazz also thought so. If Lauri Markkanen made a mistake and affected the market, it would be really heartbroken. So Laurie Markanen was pressed by the Jazz, her attendance rate was just over 50%, and she averaged only 19 points and 5.9 rebounds per game, which was a slight decline compared to the past. Of course, Lauri Markanen is not bad at fighting power. Now he is 28 years old and is in his first year of playing. The Rockets have enough defensive resources to allow him to play his offensive advantage as much as possible.
Colin Sexton did not realize all his talents due to injury and playing style, but it was not a big problem to be a qualified starter. At least it was worth looking forward to more than Jaylen Green. Obviously Colin Sexton can play some tough battles. This season he averaged 18.4 points, 2.7 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game. Compared with Jaylen Green, Colin Sexton is stronger in combat. He is 26 years old and is not old, while the Rockets can get more reliable defenders.
From the overall perspective, the price paid by the Rockets is not small. Jaylen Green and Dillon Brooks are still the team's starters. Cam Whitmore and Jock Landale are not the main rotation in the Rockets, but if they go to a team with average depth, they will definitely get a lot of opportunities. This doesn't matter. If the Rockets want to give multiple draft picks, they may lose a little. In addition to giving the No. 10 pick, the Rockets also want to give the first round pick in 2028, which seems to be a bit high. As for a second round pick, it seems harmless because the pick is very low.
