Beijing time on January 6, the Rockets and wizards game will start today, according to pre-game news, the rockets' little Potter and Wood have returned to the team, they have appeared in the rockets training the day before, is expected to play with the Wizards, the two will start. As a result, the Rockets' rookie guard Jaylen Green's tactical position seems to be down a bit again.
In fact, since Green's comeback in the Rockets and Heat games, his performance has been good, and Jaylen Green's three-point shooting rate has been above 40% since his return, and his shooting rate is much better than before. It is understood that during his recovery, Jaylen Green changed his shooting style with the help of Rockets assistant coach John Lucas, which seems to be the reason for his rapid increase in shooting percentage.
But it has to be said that the Rockets' emphasis on Jaylen Green does not seem to be enough. Why? If you often watch the technical statistics after the Rockets game, you must have this feeling, that is, Jaylen Green's shots in each game are not the most for the Rockets in many cases. Take, for example, the Rockets' previous loss to the 76ers, in which Jaylen Green shot just 12 times in 27 minutes, hit three of them, and got 12 points and three rebounds.
Look at the other Rockets players, starting 5 Tigers, Green 12 shots, Gordon 11 shots, Matthews, Tate and Theth have 10, 11 and 13 shots respectively. Even Martin Jr., Nuwaba and Christopher, who came off the bench, made between 7-9 shots! What does this mean? Although Jaylen Green didn't feel good in this game, the Rockets didn't give Jaylen Green too many opportunities to let him have "unlimited firing rights"! The feel of this thing is accumulated one by one, and Jaylen Green's few shots are also one of the reasons for the ups and downs of his performance.
Previously, it was widely believed that the existence of Porter Jr. and Wood jr. was the reason why Jaylen Green had less ball and few shots. But in the previous game, Porter Jr. and Wood both missed one game due to suspension, and the Rockets are still engaged in the "egalitarianism" of shooting, and the supernova who needs to get a lot of shots like Jaylen Green, the number of shots in the whole game is not as good as the defensive interior line like Daniel Theis.
It can only be said that Silas's tactical system does not seem to leave green with many shots. Porter and Wood, who were previously thought to have robbed Green of the ball and the right to shoot, really should not carry the pot. The Rockets simply did not give Jaylen Green the attention he deserved in the tactical system, which is the reason why he has few shots and unstable performance.
Silas let every rotating player have a certain shooting opportunity, which is true, but as a supernova that the Rockets need to cultivate vigorously, the number of shots given to Green in each game is too small, and the tactical status of the role players is too small, which should be changed by the Rockets, otherwise the Rockets' Green will not grow up quickly, the team's record will not be good, the role players just want to shoot and brush the data, but forget their own job, for this Rockets, this is a situation of more losses.
