After 7 consecutive defeats against the Nuggets, the Rockets broke out of the locker room scandal, and all of a sudden Wood and Porter Jr. were pushed to the cusp of the storm, and after a day of fermentation, presumably many fans have a clear history of this matter, and will not be repeated here.
Although the incident of the conflict has passed, but this incident has given the team management a clear understanding, according to the US media reports, the Rockets may impose internal penalties on the two of them. But judging by the incident itself, Wood's situation is relatively serious and the team could trade it off at any time. You know, the whole thing happened completely by Wood, and the reason why he didn't get into the team's starting lineup against the Nuggets was not because Silas was intentional, mainly because he was late and missed the time for the new crown virus test, which is what Silas called breaking the rules of the team.
Although in everyone's mind Silas is a gentle, people and good-looking manager, but his most basic requirements for players are not to be late and leave early, and Wood is committing the taboo of Silas, but this is not the most critical, after Wood's substitute appearance, he is passive and sluggish, blindly shooting outside, and there is no defense, and he is the culprit in the second quarter collapse. According to Rockets reporter Fagan: "Wood lacks enthusiasm for playing, I don't know what the specific reason is, and why Wood wants to be so obvious on the court, what is the purpose of expanding the contradiction?" This led to a locker room clash at half-time, and in the second half he refused to be substituted by Silas.
It can be said that Wood's behavior does not even have the minimum professional ethics, compared to the hard-working and conscientious Tys in the team, Wood has gone too far. Not long ago, Wood had had language clashes with Brooks and Green in consecutive games against the Bucks and Pacers, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the cancer of the locker room. Before this incident, he had publicly complained that the team did not develop tactics for him, did not have the ball and so on. In order to take care of his emotions, the team designed a lot of blocking and dismantling tactics for him this season and the tactics with him as the axis of attack, and also let him launch many attacks. As a lost draft, Wood currently enjoys treatment that no team in the league will have, but he is not only not grateful, but instead he wants to establish himself as the leader of the team.
But what level of his own mind is not counted, the past with Brooks and Green and this conflict is because he is not defensive on the court, the attitude is loose and solipsistic, this time Wood can also be regarded as a complete let the team's coaching staff, so that the team's management can see his true face. For the rebuilding Rockets, it is important to cultivate the tactical literacy of young players, but it is more important than tactical literacy. Wood's mistake this time Silas did not make any concessions to explain the team's attitude, and as the leader Jaylen Green became more and more outstanding, he will be the core of the team in the future, and there is also Shin Kyung, a potential talented new star, and Wood has started his countdown to leaving the team.
Of course, the team's management is not in a hurry to trade, but seeks the most suitable time and the best chips, after all, no one wants to do a loss-making transaction...
