The Rockets currently sit seventh in the West, just two wins away from the top four teams in the West. They have played 20 games this season, conceding an average of 105 per gameWith 6 points, it is the fewest points conceded by any team in the league, behind second-placed Wolves (105.).9 points). Their defensive efficiency is also quite good, conceding 108 points per 100 possessions2 points, second only to the first place in the league. The Rockets have never suffered a big loss this season, except for a big loss to the Magic in the opening game, and even in many games, they have only lost because of controversial last-minute decisions. The team has undergone a radical change, thanks to the outstanding performance of Uduka. While the Rockets have made significant progress, they still need to strengthen their roster through trades if they want to make the playoffs firmly and compete for a top-four finish in the regular season.
According to the American media "Bleachers", Stone intends to bring in a wing player who is both offensive and defensive to improve the team's squad strength. As a result, he's set his sights on the Warriors' Wiggins and has prepared a four-way trade package. The Warriors are ready to send Wiggins, Kuminga, Payton Jr., and a 2027 first-round pick in exchange for the Rockets' Anunoby, Trent and Tate. For the Warriors, this season has not been as good as they could have been, and they will need to complete further roster reinforcements to be expected to win the championship. Although this deal sacrifices future chips, the quality of the players obtained has increased significantly. Anunoby is excellent in terms of technique and basketball IQ, and is good at making smart decisions on the offensive end, shooting a whopping 38 from three-point range7%。
In addition, his defensive ability is also outstanding, averaging 15 points per game1 point, 4 rebounds4 and 2 assists4, 1 steal and 1 block. Trent, on the other hand, is very accurate in his three-point shooting, he is good at blocking and attacking, and he is a typical offensive player, shooting 41% from three-point range. As for Tate, he is also a very good impromptu player. The addition of these three players will greatly enhance the strength of the Warriors. On the other hand, the Rockets are ready to send Tate, Landale, Oladipo and two future second-round picks in exchange for the Warriors' Wiggins. For the Rockets, they also need to further strengthen the roster in order to better impact the playoffs. Wiggins is a very good player, he has been very consistent on the court and has been able to contribute a lot of points to the team. The team is in the midst of a high-profile four-way deal.
The Hawks plan to trade Mills and two future second-round picks for Payton Jr., while the Raptors plan to trade Anunoby and Trent for Kuminga, Landale, Oladipo, Mills, as well as a future first-round pick and four future second-round picks. These trades are quite a challenge for both teams. Payton Jr. is an excellent defensive player who causes a lot of trouble for opponents on the court, averaging 171 point, 5 rebounds, 23 assists, 12 steals and 08 caps. He shot 473% and 39 percent from three-point range6 per cent, which is still young, but the performance is in line with the team's expectations. His ability on the defensive end is impressive, as he is the team's outside gatekeeper, while also showing some outside shooting and off-ball movement on the offensive end, providing help and support to the team and enhancing the team's rotation. This would be a pretty good deal for the Eagles.
The Raptors, on the other hand, could mean a rebuild, but the chips include not only young and promising players, but also very good immediate players, as well as five draft picks that could further improve the roster. This four-way deal is significant for both teams, so please discuss your thoughts in the comments section!
