After Durant joined, the Rockets starting five tigers were released, and the offense and defense were full, the Thunder should be careful

Before the NBA tiebreak began today, the NBA was the first to break out a big deal. Durant was traded by the Suns to the Rockets, and the Suns got Jaylen Green, Dillon Brooks, the 10th pick in the first round of 2025 and the next five second round picks. The conclusion of this deal has made many fans look forward to the arrival of next season soon, which means that the Rockets will become a very strong team next season, and they even have the opportunity to stand on the stage of the finals. In fact, the Rockets have performed very well in the playoffs this year, but they have a fatal problem, that is, there is no stable end point. Van Vleet and Jaylen Green lack offensive stability. Many fans have been speculating that if the Rockets can get Durant, the team may become very perfect. Now many fans' guesses are done, and the Rockets have really got Durant.

Durant joins the Rockets' starting five tigers next season can basically be confirmed. If nothing unexpected happens, they will form the starting five-man group of VanVleet, Amen Thompson, Durant, Smith and Shin Kyung. This set of starting and offensive and defense can be said to be completely full of all the offense and defense ends, Amen Thompson's defensive ability is very outstanding. He can definitely guard the opponent's arrow, and Durant is the player who guaranteed the offensive end. When the team is in trouble, you can give the ball to Durant and let Durant end it. Shin Kyung is a very talented inside player. The Rockets' lineup is both inside and outside.

In addition, the Rockets completed a contract renewal with Adams not long ago. Adams can provide Durant and others with very strong screening quality, including Adams' ability to grab rebounds at the basket. In other words, Durant has many blue-collar players around him to help him pave the way, and he can fully display his offensive talent in the Rockets. It can be said that the Rockets are indeed a team that is very suitable for Durant. What we can be sure of is that the Rockets' defensive quality is several levels better than the Suns. Only in such a team can Durant not waste his offensive talent. Only in such a team can he reach the stage of the finals.

And next season, the Rockets are obviously a strong opponent in front of the Thunder. The Rockets are also very young teams, and they also have excellent defensive skills. Now there is another unsolvable offensive player. Maybe the Thunder need to study how to deal with the Rockets next season.
