The Rockets have no non-sale products! Oh, no, there is no non-sale products in this league!

After the Rockets were eliminated by the Warriors 3-4, their 2024-25 season ended.

Today, the Rockets held a press conference for the season summary, and general manager Stone attended the press conference... The issues related to the offseason reinforcement are indispensable at the press conference. What the team is sure to keep Adams, and Adams himself also has the intention to renew his contract and stay in the team. Just like this performance in the playoffs this year, is there something wrong with not keeping Adams?

Van Jordan's contract next season ($44.89 million) is the team's option. The Rockets originally needed to decide whether to execute Van Jordan's contract within 5 days after the end of the season, but the two sides are discussing postponing the execution deadline to June. Currently, it is more inclined to Van Jordan to sign a contract again to stay with the Rockets. "We are very optimistic that he will be with us for the foreseeable future," Stone said. At the same time, the team's general manager Stone also affirmed that Ethan and Jabbarry Smith are an important part of the team, but Stone did not give a definite answer as to whether they will renew their contracts in advance this summer. As for Jaylen Green, who performed very poorly this year's playoffs, Stone said that he would not make a conclusion for a player just because of a series. I can't say that, otherwise the trading value will fall below the market.

Speaking of the issue of strengthening the offseason... General Manager Stone said so. He felt that maintaining the continuity of the current lineup is also a way to improve the team, but it does not mean that the team will not make changes, but the threshold for making changes is very high. Indeed, no matter what adjustments the Rockets lineup makes, it will test the ability of the team's general manager.

Stone is also very panicked now, right? Previously, some media said that Amen Thompson is now the only non-sale product for the Rockets, and the Rockets are not willing to give up the team's valuable young assets for some veteran stars who don't have much future. However, in an interview today, Stone said: "No one in our industry is truly unshakable. We attach great importance to every player in the lineup. We have these draft picks in our hands just to be able to choose the right person or use it to upgrade the original lineup. We will see which method is more suitable." After not seeing each other for a few days, Stone felt haggard and under a lot of pressure. Isn't anyone in the NBA selling products? Indeed, look at Doncic. Nick Harrison: Look, I just said that it’s not just me, but the general managers of the entire league are the same. It’s all business, who is more noble than who?
