Reporter: Durant may play shooting guard, the Rockets may be on the three-front lineup

Today, reporter Ben DuBose talked about the Rockets' thoughts on the current lineup on a podcast program, and said that the Rockets hope to take advantage of their height to play harder and more confrontational.

"They will tell you, first, with Kevin Durant, you may be able to get out of the situation by shooting. Secondly, I think the core of all these signings is that they want the team to be taller. This is what I heard most during the offseason when I communicate with insiders. Their best data performance last year was a lineup: only one defender, such as Fred VanVleet or Jaylen Green (choose one of them, not at the same time), and three forwards and a center.

This idea also fits Uduka's coaching style - he hopes the team is tougher and more physically confronting, simply put it The higher the height, the better. So players like Dorian Finney Smith and Clint Capela can cover and protect rebounds. Finney Smith can also shoot three-pointers and open up space.

They just want more players who can defend, interfere with passing routes, have physical confrontation and have a large range of activities. I think their current thinking is that they don’t necessarily need a shooting guard who can hit the basket in the traditional sense, they want more players with both body and shooting ability. They believe that as long as they have enough tall and confrontational players, they can drive offense. ”
