As we all know, 2021 is a big year for the draft, and every NBA team is planning its own selection rights. We all know that the Pistons have the No. 1 pick, and the Houston Rockets have the second overall pick. But the Rockets, who are in the midst of a rebuilding period, are not satisfied because they have such a high draft pick. According to US media reports, the Rockets are now very active in the free market, and they are working hard to negotiate with the Pistons. And their goal is very clear to be the Pistons' No. 1 pick. The management of the two teams are constantly discussing bargaining chips at the negotiation table. According to normal people's understanding, the Rockets used their second pick to select the very offensive guard Green, which is very meaningful for their future development and reconstruction. But it seems that the Rockets management is still not satisfied with this choice. They want to do their best to trade for the No. 1 pick to select Cunningham.

When the American media broke the news about Cunningham this year, they thought this guard could become the next Doncic, but I think Green is not bad at all! If we look at the template alone, Green's template is basketball god Michael Jordan and Lakers legend Kobe Bryant. Whether it is the reputation or personal ability of these two people, they are far above Doncic. In fact, as a fan friend and media person, I still can't understand the Rockets management's persistence and favor for the No. 1 pick. I think if the Rockets management can use their crazy operations to get the Pistons' No. 1 pick without losing their second pick, they will accelerate their reconstruction and become a powerhouse in the Western Conference in two years. But if the Rockets management not only uses its second pick to trade for the Pistons' No. 1 pick, but also adds some very strong players, or even draft picks from other picks, then I think it's a little bit... The gain outweighs the loss.
