You may be thinking… Why can’t the Rockets contend for a championship? They just re-upped with Chris Paul. Well, it’s because of the loss of Trevor Ariza.
Trevor Ariza, the former star three and d player for the Houston Rockets who made the Western Conference Finals and were one win away from the NBA Finals. Now the Rockets could not retain Ariza, who signed a one-year deal worth fifteen million dollars.Ariza was a great defender for Houston.He defended the opposing teams’ best player.Whether that be LeBron James , Kawhi Leonardon the Spurs, Kevin Durant on the Warriors. Ariza is also a great three point shooter who shot the three ball at 37 percent. Ariza averaged almost twelve points per game, and five rebounds on the offensive side. Ariza averaged almost two steals per game, and almost a block per game.Houston will have to get a new Trevor Ariza. I’m sure that Trevor Ariza will be a great veteran leader for the Phoenix Suns.
