Kevin Durant SAVES the Rockets Again… But Is That a Problem?

Описание: After a week of drama and controversy, the Houston Rockets returned to the court — and nothing changed.
In a chaotic win over the undermanned Charlotte Hornets, Houston once again leaned on 37-year-old superstar Kevin Durant to bail them out late. Durant delivered a vintage performance, taking over in the mid-range and finishing with a dominant scoring night when the offense stalled yet again.
But the bigger story isn’t the win — it’s what it revealed.
Are the Rockets too dependent on KD?
Are their young stars ready to lead a contender?
And should Houston consider trading its young core for another superstar?
The discussion dives deep into the team’s identity crisis:
🔥 Why Houston struggles to close games and score consistently
🔥 Concerns about relying on a 37-year-old MVP candidate
🔥 Whether the young core can reach true superstar level
🔥 Lessons from past championship trades (like blockbuster moves that sacrificed youth for titles)
🔥 The risk of staying “good” instead of becoming great
With comparisons to how teams built around stars like Giannis Antetokounmpo and Nikola Jokić developed into contenders, the question becomes unavoidable:
👉 Do the Rockets have future superstars… or just good players?
Houston may be winning games — but this performance raised serious concerns about their ceiling in the Western Conference.
If you’re a Rockets fan or NBA junkie, this is the debate everyone in Houston is having right now.
