Jalen Green Speaks Rockets' 2025 Postseason Berth into Existence

[RocketMan]

The Houston Rockets used to be a lock for the playoffs every year. The franchise made the playoffs in eight consecutive seasons, from 2012-2020, despite having different coaches, role players, and even co-stars. All of that changed with just one trade: the James Harden deal in 2021, sending the long-time franchise staple to the Brooklyn Nets, who play in an entirely different conference. The Rockets have since underwent a full-scale rebuild, landing four top-four draft picks in four consecutive years.
