Under the expectation of everyone, the Rockets vs. Bulls finally won a fiasco, to know that the Rockets originally ended a 15-game losing streak to open a 7-game winning streak, the opponent is the Bulls, and now the two teams are facing each other again, and the fans of Hugh City naturally hope to win this game again, but in the end, the Rockets still lost to the opponent by 15 points because of the disparity in strength.
Of course, losing the game is not unacceptable for the Rockets, after all, the purpose of this season is to cultivate young players, and in this game, one of the Rockets' flanking stars played a very bright performance in the final quarter, playing in the fourth quarter for 11 minutes, 6 shots, 5 shots, 12 points, 1 rebound, 1 steal and 1 block, and 22 minutes in the whole game to get 15 points, 1 rebound, 1 steal and 1 block data, he is the son of the team Martin Jr.
But even with such a brilliant performance, Martin Jr. is still a neglected member of the silas rotation system, from this game can be seen that although he bombed 12 points in the fourth quarter, but in the first three quarters of Martin Jr. only 3 points in 11 minutes, and only got 1 shot, the team's more tactics are still around Wood and Gordon to develop, the more in the case of the team's score behind, Martin Jr. can get more limited shots, That is to say, Martin Jr. is still a rotating player in the eyes of Silas.
Martin Jr., a young potential rising star, was already impressive last season, averaging 16.8 points and 7.3 rebounds in 12 games at the end of the season, including 51.7% from the field and a staggering 39.3% from three-point range. This season because of the limited opportunities only 7.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists of the data into the account, but Martin Jr. maintained a very high offensive efficiency, his shooting rate reached 55.8%, three-point shooting rate is also 33%, and in the past 5 games he scored 13 points, 14 points, 15 points, 10 points, 15 points, has been 5 consecutive games to score double-figures, which shows that as long as Martin Jr. is more involved in the offense he can still help the team solve the scoring problem.
In addition to helping the team on the offensive end, Martin Jr.'s defense has also improved a lot this season, and his heel defense and his basket guard are very good, and the most important thing is that his foul control is also quite good. Remember last season he joined the Rockets to represent the team, on the court is basically the opponent's cash machine, either easily passed or sent to the opponent 2+1, but this situation has rarely occurred this season, and he currently averages only 1.2 fouls in 18 minutes per game. So Cyras still use him more, as a rebuilt team, Hugh City's flanking star should not be ignored, especially after cutting House, Silas should train him to become a flanking 3D player of Hughes.
