Instead of an inconsistent and reckless scorer, they got one of the best shooters in basketball history. That's a huge upgrade for them. Considering KD's age, this season might be their only real shot at a championship. Alperen will be even better this season. Thompson, Eason and Smith Jr. are all more experienced now too. I think they have a good chance, but there are a lot of teams with serious potential in the West. It'll be an even tougher fight than last season. If they finish the regular season in a good position again, they'll have a more experienced play-off run this time.

Yes, KD is going to be 37 years old this September. I don't know whether he would retire at an older age than LeBron. Tongue And Alperen really needs to get better. He should improve his scoring in tight defending situations especially.

I feel safe saying the Houston Rockets are not going to win a championship next season. Durant has been a disaster everywhere he’s gone. He might be a great player, but for whatever reason it doesn’t seem to translate to team success. Maybe Houston will have the secret sauce, but I doubt it.

KD has only 2 championships which were back-to-backs with Warriors. It has been 7 years without a championship since then. It is hard to say whether Rockets is really the place he will make it again before retirement.

We will see. If Pacers can reach the finals and surprise people then why not seeing it with Rockets too? Smiley
