Not welcomed? No one in the West is selected for the best team. A major rocket is urgently needed to be solved

On May 24, 2025, when the NBA playoffs were in the division finals, the NBA officially announced the best team of the season. In this award, the stars who performed well this season were successfully selected, and the Rockets, as the second place in the Western Conference in the regular season, no one was selected for the Best Team, which was indeed somewhat beyond the expectations of fans.

After the results were announced, Shin Kyung was the Rockets' closest player to the best team, ranking 16th, losing to Harden, who was 15th, and missed the best team. This also made many people discuss whether the league doesn't like the Rockets. In the end, no one was selected into the best team with such an excellent record in the regular season.

But for the Rockets, their performance in the regular season is mainly because of their defensive ability, and being able to fight the Warriors seven games in the first round of the playoffs is also because of their defense. The biggest problem of the team this season is that their scoring ability is poor at critical moments and no star can stand up and score. Although Green and Shin Kyoto have performed well, it is difficult to become an offensive point worth relying on at critical moments. So the lack of a top star is the biggest problem for the Rockets and the reason why no one can be selected for the best team. The Rockets really need to make changes in the lineup in the offseason to strive to get a top star, which should make the Rockets become a strong contender for the championship.
