4 high towers are in charge! Rockets 2 ranked 1st in the Data League, spending 6.8 million in the offseason to expand the inside advantage

Next season, the Rockets will completely become a team that is both offensive and defensive. In terms of defense, there are not many teams in the league that have so many defensive resources than the Rockets. After all, although Durant, introduced by the Rockets this summer, is a super scorer, his defensive ability is not weak. In addition, Capela, Finney Smith and Okogi signed by the Rockets were basically signed according to Uduka's wishes. Uduka has always wanted to build the Rockets into a super defensive team. Last season, the Rockets were the top defensive team in the league. There were many defensive masters in their team, including Adams and Smith Jr., and Ethan, Dillon, and Amen Thompson on the front line.

So, next season, the Rockets have introduced so many defensive players, and their defensive abilities have increased. As for offensive end, Durant can solve the Rockets' biggest problem last season - offense. Durant averaged 30 points per game if he wanted to. Moreover, next season, the Rockets' Shin Kyung will get more ball rights, and even their defender Shepard will have more opportunities to perform. In addition, role players such as Amen and Smith, who have improved their offensive ability, the Rockets should not have too many shortcomings in the offensive end next season.

Their inside line is already top. Last season, the Rockets had three towers: Adams, Langdale and All-Star center Shin Kyung. Now the Rockets can serve as centers, in addition to Shin Kyung, Smith Jr. and Adams, they also signed old players like Capela for only an annual salary of 6.8 million in the offseason.

Although this is a three-year contract of 21.5 million, Capela's annual salary as a defensive center next season is only 6.8 million, which can be said to be quite worth it. Although some people say that Capela's current state is no longer as strong as seven or eight years ago, the lean Camel is bigger than the horse. Capela is still an excellent basket protector and rebounder in the league. He can also easily send blocks and do dirty work under the basket. Capela never complains.

Everyone also knew last season that the Rockets not only had the best defense at the league, but their two statistics - total rebounds and frontcourt rebounds - ranked first in the league. The Rockets are the first in the league in data per game. Although this team does not have that kind of super rebounder, almost all frontcourt players of the Rockets have good rebound protection abilities, such as Shin Kyung, who averages 10 rebounds per game, Smith Jr., Adams, Langdale, Ethan, and even Amen Thompson are all rebounding masters.

Now the Rockets signed Capela for only 6.8 million yuan in the offseason. The Rockets' rebounding data will become better next season, because Capela averaged 9 rebounds per game last season, and this was achieved by him as a long-term substitute, so the Rockets' rebounding advantage in the interior will only increase next season.

Although there are not many players in the Rockets' offensive ability in the interior, the Rockets' advantage in rebounding is obviously further expanded compared to other teams, because next season, four towers will be in the Rockets' interior, and Shin Kyung, Adams, Capela and Jabbarri Smith Jr. can all help the team in rebounding. With Durant's unsolvable offense, the Rockets can really look at the championship next season.
