Should I chase 25+4+7 superstars? NBA experts recommend the Rockets: If I chase Booker, I can form 4 giants next season

Jaylen Green's playoff performance this season was a mess. Except for the 38 points scored in the second game with the Warriors, Jaylen Green's performance in the rest of the games was unremarkable. Although some Rockets executives believe that the teammates did not provide better support to Jaylen Green, to be honest, Jaylen Green is basically helpless in the game under the Warriors' defense, and he himself can't stand it.
You should know that the Rockets cannot spend a lot of money to leave a player who only performs well in the regular season. What's more, Jaylen Green's performance in the regular season is not phenomenal. He averages only 20 points per game in the regular season, not that kind of very outstanding scorer. In the playoffs, Jaylen Green's average score dropped to 13 points, which is still an average of 38 points in a single game; if you look at the other 6 games in the playoffs except for this game, Jaylen Green's average score will be even lower.
Therefore, many experts have proposed multiple trading plans for the Rockets, believing that the Rockets should give up Jaylen Green and instead pursue a superstar, at least to ensure the score next season. Today we saw another trading suggestion: NBA expert Trent Whiting believes that the Rockets should not chase Antetokounmpo or Durant, they should try every means to get Devin Booker, the Suns' defender.
Although the Suns did not make the playoffs this season, Booker's personal performance was still good. Booker, 28, can average 25.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 7.1 assists this season, and he is one of the best shooting guards in the Western Conference and even the league. This expert believes that Booker's ability and popularity are similar to stars such as Edwards, Mitchell, Jaylen Brown, and is the Suns' own superstar.
Although the Suns have no intention of trading Booker, and even want to let him build a lineup as the core of the reconstruction, Booker seems to be more suitable for the team's lineup for the Rockets. After all, he is only 28 years old and can partner with the Rockets' core lineup for a long time.
This expert suggested that the Rockets should chase Booker, because once Booker is obtained, the Rockets will be directly upgraded at No. 2. Although Jaylen Green performed well in the regular season, he had many shortcomings in the playoffs. After Booker joins the Rockets, their outside scoring ability will be greatly improved - he is good at receiving and shooting balls, and will also partner well with Van Vreet and Shin Kyung. He is one of the most accurate backcourt shooters in the NBA league, and can also make mid-range mobile shots, complete moving jump shots while dribbling, and is also an underrated ball handler and passer. If Jaylen Green is abandoned by the Rockets, Booker will be the best addition to this position.
Although it is very difficult for the Rockets to get Booker and may send out a lot of chips, it is worth trying for the Rockets. Once Booker joins, the Rockets will form the Rockets' Big Four with Van Vreet, Amen Thompson and Shin Kyung, and Jaylen Green can completely give up - the Rockets can pack other young players and draft picks to the Suns. This seems acceptable for the Suns, although they have lost Booker, they can get a younger Jaylen Green.
