This guy can t be asked, the Hornets are interested in taking advantage of the only All-Star in the team. If the Rockets take over, they will be on a cliff.

After the playoffs, many people have a common idea. The team needs to find another star-level player in the backcourt as soon as possible, because judging from the playoffs against the Warriors this season, although Van Vleet has good competitiveness, at critical moments, due to his figure and talent limitations, his scoring ability is not stable enough. Jaylen Green couldn't count on it, and even making a shot when he was double-teamed was difficult.

And now there is an opportunity to get an All-Star backcourt in front of the team, that is La Melo Ball of the Hornets. The Hornets have released news before that the team will officially establish a lineup with 22-year second-year Brandon Miller as the absolute core. This 2.06-meter forward player handed over a comprehensive data of 21 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.7 blocks in the second year of his career. In contrast, players such as Mark Williams and La Melo Ball are all regarded as team assets that can be traded.

Especially Lamelo Ball, as the best rookie of the 20-21 season, the team has regarded it as the cornerstone of the future for the past five years. In terms of personal data, Ball averaged 21 points, 6 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 1.5 steals per game in his career, and was selected into the Eastern Conference All-Star lineup in the second year of his career. There are still four years left for a five-year, $230 million contract. Which team has won Ball, there is no need to worry about renewal.

However, for the Rockets, LaMelo Ball is definitely not a suitable trading partner. Although the 23-year-old backcourt star is very talented, there are three problems that are very unfavorable for the Rockets. The first is his adaptability to the team. The Rockets currently have Jaylen Green as the scorer in the backcourt, and his playing style is somewhat similar to Lamelo Ball, both of which are very "free and chic". If these two people are allowed to partner in the backcourt, the defensive system built by Uduka will completely collapse.

, and the team has tried this type of combination before. When Jaylen Green first came to the Rockets, his backcourt partner was Kevin Porter Jr., and Kevin Porter Jr.'s offensive talent is not weaker than Lamelo. The reality is that this pair of backcourt combinations contracted most of the team's offense, making the Rockets' entire offense end mostly in singles, and the offensive efficiency was very low.

At the same time, Ball's injury problem is also an aspect that the team needs to worry about. Since entering the league, Lamelo Ball has only played more than 70 games in the second season, and his regular season appearances have been 36, 22 and 47 games in the last three seasons. Although the salary of about 40 million in the league is very common for All-Star players, as a player, you must first play the court before you can play. The last point is perhaps the most critical for the Rockets. Players like Lamelo Ball with very high traffic, even if the Rockets trade to the team, once there are minor problems this year, the team will not have the initiative in terms of trading or contract renewal. For example, in this summer's offseason, his brother Lonzo Ball bluntly stated that he hoped the Hornets could draw the second pick and choose Harper, and then trade his brother to the Los Angeles Clippers.

As for whether Lamero Ball really wants to go to the Clippers, people are still unknown, but one thing is certain that he must have wanted to go to a city like Los Angeles, a place like Houston, which is known as the fourth largest city in the United States, but has always paid less attention to the media, is not his ideal destination.

So, even if the Rockets want to improve the backcourt this summer, they need to carefully choose a player who really wants to come here to win the game, rather than a "flower" like Lamelo Ball. The team currently has Green, the traffic star, and one more person will inevitably lose control. It is better to win a practical player like the Bulls Kobe White. It is not only cheap for the team, but also very obvious for the improvement of the overall strength of the team. Do you think the Rockets should trade for Lamelo Ball?
