The Houston Rockets should trade pragmatically. Instead of getting Durant, it is better to fix the three-point shortcoming!

The trading trends about Durant have been circulating in recent days, and no one knows where Durant goes. Whether the Rockets pay Jaylen Green + Sheppard or Jabbarry Smith Jr. + Tari Ethan + Whitmore and others, both trading plans will cost the Rockets a huge price. It's really uncertain how much oil Durant, the 37-year-old veteran, still has in the fuel tank. Instead of finding a way to get Durant, the Rockets should be pragmatic and find ways to make up for their three-point shortcomings. The Rockets' three-pointers were extremely poor last season, and the team did not make any moves, making the Rockets the worst shooting team in the entire league. The Rockets' best result is to find ways to get some backcourt players with strong shooting ability. For example, Wizards Gispert with excellent three-point ability or Pistons Beasley, etc., are enough to change the Rockets' three-point level.

As a Rockets' old fan for many years, I really hope to be able to rebuild quickly and successfully. Reappearing the glory of the Rockets Yao and Mai era!
