The Rockets are experiencing 7 consecutive losses, the West ranked 15th, really into the moment of internal and external troubles, in addition to this season may be at the bottom of the West, the Rockets have a lot of internal contradictions, whether it is related to this wave of 7 consecutive losses is not known, the problem is that Porter Jr. has become the protagonist of this locker room conflict storm, as a young player, Porter Jr.'s temper and behavior are indeed difficult to accept, especially assistant coach John Lucas, he was smashed by Porter Jr., of course, he will not easily forgive Little Potter, This is not something that is useful for apologizing, and it seems that bad temper or the hidden danger of Porter Jr.'s career impacting big contracts and higher achievements.
Rockets reporter Kelly Iko reported that Porter Jr. has apologized for his overreaction, and it is not clear whether the Rockets will seriously punish Porter Jr., the Rockets in the post-Harden era are in the reconstruction stage, they also have Wall and Gordon these two cards can play, and the trade can indeed get a lot of high-quality first-round picks, so is Porter Jr. important to the Rockets?
It is worth mentioning that Porter Jr. threw things for the first time, and during the Cavaliers' playing, Porter Jr. was furious because his locker was temporarily misappropriated, and he decisively detonated a conflict in the locker room and littered with food, making the locker room miasma and destroying the team's unity atmosphere.
Now that Porter Jr. has repeated his old trick and he has smashed it with assistant coach John Lucas, this is not acceptable, I am afraid that an apology is useless, right? If Porter Jr. apologizes for overreacting and is not punished, then the Rockets will chill the heart of assistant coach John Lucas and make Porter Jr. unable to truly realize his mistakes.
In addition, compared to whether the Rockets will punish Little Potter, I believe that Little Porter will pay for his temper. So far this season, Porter Jr. has played in 22 games, averaging 12.9 points, 4.2 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 1.27 steals per game, the data looks good, but the shooting rate is terrible, shooting 36.8%, shooting 32.8% from three-point range, and shooting 62.5% from free throws. The scoring data is purely based on the average of 29.9 minutes per game and 12.1 shots per game, the play is not very efficient Porter Jr., the personal data content is not as high as imagined, and now Porter Jr. has such a bad conflict behavior, so does Porter Jr. know that this season is also his contract year?
Porter Jr. is the 19th first round of the 30th show, 2022 and 2023 is the team option, I believe that the team will choose to execute Porter Jr.'s rookie contract without suspense, the biggest suspense is that in the summer of 2022, Porter Jr. should have been able to get an early contract extension, then Little Porter is now this conflict farce that even an apology is difficult to accept, will become an obstacle for Porter Jr. to renew his contract in advance and get a big contract, in short, personal data and performance is not very tempting, and his temper is so bad, It seems that the big contract may not be related to Porter Jr., and even the early renewal of this kind of thing may not necessarily happen to Porter Jr., unless Porter Jr. can accept a very low offer contract.
