NBA superstar Garnett: He is optimistic about the Rockets! He said he will definitely enter the Western Conference Finals in three years. Is Durant s contract renewal the biggest suspense?

Family, another major prediction from the NBA is coming! On June 29, legendary star Kevin Garnett transformed into a "god calculator" in his podcast program, directly drawing a big pie for the future of the Houston Rockets - "The Rockets have three years of championship wins, and they can reach the Western Conference Finals at least once!" As soon as the news came out, the fan circle was in an instant. Some people praised it wildly, and some people shouted "KG is so mad"!

Garnett's analysis can be called "human sober". He first praised Durant: "Adu's strength is more to say? The scoring machine and the arrival of death, the only existence of the league!" But then, he threw out another "unpopular view": "Many people ignore Van Vritte. He is a champion player and a 'silent killer'!" Garnett bluntly stated that Van Jordan can not only harvest the game "big heart" on the offensive end, but also the "stabilizing needle" in the team's locker room. This leader's temperament directly adds a layer of "insurance" to the Rockets' road to championship competition.

What's even more amazing is that Garnett also pointed out the Rockets' "hidden killing move" - ​​the group of young people who have just experienced the baptism of the playoffs. "Don't underestimate the training of the playoffs. These kids have eaten the experience package and will directly 'evolve' next season!" Garnett's prediction seemed to have seen Jaylen Green, Shin Kyung and others killing the whole field.

But then again, whether the Rockets' dream of winning the championship in the past three years can come true depends on Durant's "face"! At present, Adu's contract will expire after the end of next season, with an annual salary of up to $54.7 million, and will unlock the renewal qualification on July 6. There are two ways before him: one is to sign a two-year, $112 million early contract renewal contract; the other is to wait another half a year and fight a $124 million "super contract".

What is even more incomprehensible is that there was previously news that Durant was "open to renewing contracts below the maximum salary"! Who knows the family? In order to win the championship, is Adu planning to "generate electricity for love" and reduce his own value to help the Rockets strengthen? This pattern is just full! Many fans have begun to think about it: Adu’s salary cut and renewal, and the Rockets have a few more powerful helpers to directly form the “Galaxy Battleship”. This scene is exciting to think about!

But some netizens poured cold water: "Ideals are full, reality is skinny, and the Western Conference is full of mighty people. Can the Rockets really break through the siege?" Someone joked: "Adu's choice to renew the contract directly determines whether the Rockets will 'take off' or 'show bad'!" How will this drama about the Rockets develop in the future? Come and bet in the comment section, let’s witness Garnett’s prophecy is “devoted to God” or “reversal”!
