The Rockets fought with the Suns to the last moment yesterday, regrettably lost and then visited Los Angeles non-stop, and was hit by the Clippers with a 31-point bloodbath, fragments +1, and early gold to collect troops.
The defeat of this battle, although there are reasons for back-to-back physical weakness, but the Clippers who are 25 out of the Offensive Efficiency League have scored 142 points, and there are many flaws inside and outside, which is enough to explain the problem.
A big four small missing rebounds is the norm, every cover on the line of the attack, the follow-up rotation to make up for the body shape disadvantage is obvious, the periphery of the empty eye to see the beads of arrows is a chain effect.
The Rockets' journey to the end is far away, and it is still necessary to accumulate high-quality defensive resources to make up for the shortcomings, but fortunately, there is a slight improvement in the offensive end, after all, there is no record pressure, and the success of Jaylen Green's training is the most important.
To be fair, the Rockets' offensive environment is extremely harsh, and it is not the best soil for the rapid growth of rookies - the team lacks a positive indian point guard, the top player in the team, Wood, bears the "tumor label", and the management wants to develop potential stocks + that is, to sell the combat strength with both hands.
Under houston's team building idea of playing and practicing, it is inevitable that a high-ranking genius like Green, who holds the ball rough + no ball and relies on tactics, is inevitable.
With the deepening of the season, Green's shooting posture has been slightly corrected after the effect is remarkable, gradually adapting to the NBA-level confrontation, independently creating space to get rid of the rhythm and shooting speed, after the off-season targeted polishing, it is still expected to regain the title of the top scorer of the same year.
The question is how to follow the rocket's follow-up path?
As one of the first popular sellers in the trading market to sell and open, as a result, by the deadline for the transaction, the Rockets helped the Lakers to solve the 40 million Mr. Swap plan, and the veteran ball carrier Gordon and Wood, who did not match the team's reconstruction timeline, failed to shoot in time.
Just get rid of Thes's long contract, take over the right to use Schroeder on a half-season value contract + lottery Fernando, and fill the point guard line reserve emergency. Try to negotiate, even if it is to find the first round of the final draft sign is really not meaningful, the Rockets to avoid deliberately making transactions for others to make wedding dresses, loss of money is also a wise move.
Schroeder, who asked for a big contract without success, wandered around and wandered to the space city, will this be a short foothold or directly to the buyout market?
The quasi-best sixth man's level of release, the chaotic style of attacking the frame and the mid-range balance, and the defense above the average line of the same position, after all, are not control players, and the effect of driving the attack to feed his teammates will not help the rookies develop well.
As for emulating the Thunder, the set of stock speculation and scalping may not be suitable for this rocket. It's just that the big one inside the cannon, Schroeder's personal level is far beyond the Rockets' existing group of defenders, it is much better than continuing to catch the ducks on the shelves, Schroeder is not looking for a buyout, and it is not impossible to accept the mid-class offer provided by the Rockets in the offseason.
The Rockets have focused on this summer's draft, streamlining the lineup in advance to vacate the position and wait for the rookie to settle in.
Similar to the "Wood must not be removed" argument, may be next year after the airborne size of the newcomer intensified, and Gordon failed to take a high shot, somewhat a pity, can only hope to ensure the competitive state, "the bicycle into a stretcher next year and then sell" is it.
Thanks for your attention, welcome to discuss, Azhe is willing to "ball" with you to get the truth, all the way to the end of the world.
