Make wedding dresses for the Rockets, the Nets collect 5 first rounds with other purposes, and the media s three trading plans to advise the Rockets

Basketball

The NBA 2025 draft will officially begin tomorrow. The Rockets, which have traded all their draft picks, have posted updates on the official website, and the team will take action in the draft. The news quickly sparked speculation. The Rockets then proved that at this year's draft, if a potential rookie declines in the ranking, or if a Rockets intends to fall to a reasonable level, the team may use future resources to stockpile another talented player for Houston.

At present, the Rockets' trading target may be very clear, that is, the Brooklyn Nets. They just reached a deal with the Hawks and the Celtics, and the team eventually got Terence Mann and a 22-pick pick in the first round of 25 years. After the completion of this deal, the Nets have five first-round draft picks, namely the 8th, 19th, 22nd, 26th and 27th.

Rebuilding a team does require training young players, but only those high-potential rookies who have become the cornerstone of the team can truly speed up the team's reconstruction. It does not mean that the more first-round draft picks, the faster the team rebuilds, not to mention that the team can be trained by five rookies in a year.

Just like when the Rockets were drafted in 21, it was also a draft that had multiple first round picks. At that time, the Rockets had three first rounds, 2, 23 and 24 in the first round, and finally got the 16th pick in the first round through the trade. But looking back now, Jaylen Green, No. 2 pick, Garuba, and No. 24 pick, Christopher Euro are no longer in the team's lineup, especially the No. 23 and No. 24 picks. Garuba returned to the European arena, and TOEFL can only stay in the Development League.

So the Nets have probably only one purpose in stocking up so many first rounds, which is to use them as bargaining chips, and what they most hope for now is of course to be able to exchange the Rockets for the first round swap rights of 27 years from the Rockets. Otherwise, with their current lineup, people would not find it strange that they would give the Rockets a top three pick.

Perhaps it is because of this that the Rockets are full of confidence in the upcoming draft. Currently, some media have provided three trading plans for the Rockets, which can be adjusted according to the team ranking they want. If the Rockets' intentional target is still high-potential rookies, such as Trae Johnson and Espee, then when these intended players are down, the Rockets can directly trade with the Nets with 27-year swap rights, and get such young talents who may become All-Stars in the future.

If the Rockets' intended player is a first-round mid-shot such as Bellinger or Coward, the team can use 27 years to exchange rights to get their first-round 19 picks from the Nets' trade and the first-round rights of the Knicks in the hands of the 26th year. Because the Rockets are likely to be in the hands of the Thunder in the first round, they will trade for a future first round, which is also a very good addition to next year.

The last type, if the Rockets' draft goal is players like Ben Salav, they can use their first round swap rights with the Nets in 27 years to get the 27th pick, and at the same time get the 28th round swap rights of the Suns in 28 years. In this way, the team can not only choose the rookie they like, but may once again take the absolute initiative in the future transactions involving Devin Booker.

In any case, in the draft, as long as the Rockets have a target player, the initiative will definitely be in their hands. It has to be said that the transactions made by General Manager Stone about Harden at that time are indeed very clever, and the team is still taking advantage of the Nets. Especially the first rounds of the Nets and the Suns in 27 years may become high-quality trading chips in the top 10 and even top five picks in the first round. This undoubtedly gives the team more say in personnel reserves and star trading in the future.

Although I don’t know the specific plans of the Rockets, the Rockets, which has Durant this summer, will definitely no longer be the spectator in the past. As for which player will eventually land in Houston, what resources will the Rockets get in the end, everything will be announced before 12 o'clock tomorrow. Which trading plan do you think is the most beneficial to the Rockets? Welcome to leave a message for discussion!
