On February 26, Beijing time, the Rockets lost 111-119 to the Magic and swallowed an 8-game losing streak. In this game, the western squad leader vs the eastern squad leader's rookie pecked at each other, and both teams were weak teams at the bottom of the division. The Rockets also led by 6 points in the first quarter, the second quarter was directly hit by the Magic 31-18 but fell behind by 7 points, the third quarter was difficult to recover 4 points, the rocket's attack in the last quarter came to a standstill, and finally the Eastern Squad Leader ended a 4-game losing streak, and the Western Squad Leader swallowed 8 consecutive defeats.
This rookie game can still see some things, mainly the compatibility of the Rockets' backcourt double gun problem, half a season has passed the number of games that the two have played together, most of the games are the same as this one, one person plays one person to pull the crotch, and the compatibility of the two is really poor.
Jaylen Green was in good shape after an All-Star Weekend, playing 31 minutes, 9-of-16, 4-of-9 from three-point range, 23 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 steals, shooting 56.3 percent from the field and 54.5 percent from three-point range, and he was very proactive in scoring 10 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist and 2 steals on 4-of-4-of-3-point shooting in the final quarter.
And the starting point guard Kevin Porter Jr.'s competitive state is difficult to say, the whole game 21 minutes, 10 of 2, 6 three-point 2, 6 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 1 turnover, shooting 20%, three-point shooting rate of 33.3%, because his state is too poor, Silas directly abandoned him in the final quarter!
Kevin Porter Jr. said in an interview on Feb. 25: "Jaylen and I will work harder and more cohesively, because next year we will become scary, we will become scary. But really?
The difficulty of these two people playing together is a key issue, against the Jazz Porter 9 of 2 + 5 of 3 points, Jaylen is 15 of 8 + 3 points 5 of 10, two consecutive games Porter did not play doubles but Jaylen won 20+ data.
Porter Jr. also has a problem - stability, he only scored single-digit points against the Spurs and Pelicans, but against the Raptors and Pelicans 25+, Jaylen Green can consistently perform and win the double-double data.
From all indications, the cultivation value of the list is still higher than that of Kevin Porter Jr., and Porter's personality is also flawed, and Silas should give Jaylen more ball rights to let him deal with, or this is a better choice for the future of the Rockets.
