With 52 points and 13 rebounds, the Rockets laid the cornerstone of the inside and outside line, and the 2 main players played into trading chips
The Rockets have completed a two-game winning streak, which is not easy, the team has 7 games left, and the rockets have been more successful in rebuilding the first step this season. Mainly two rookies Shen Jing and Jaylen Green played out, against the Blazers, JayLen Green got 25 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, and shot 6 three-pointers, Shen Jing was a big explosion, got 27 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists, and the two took 52 points, 13 rebounds and 5 assists, which obviously laid the foundation for the inside and outside line.
Jaylen Green has averaged 15.9 points per game and 33.3 percent from three-point range after this game, a statistic that came out of a terrible first half of the season. He is already the cornerstone of the Rockets' outside line, this year's draft Rockets did not look away, Jaylen Green not only has excellent physical talent, the key is also in excellent learning, adjustment ability, after getting an 8 points quickly read 20+ consecutive reading.
Shin Kyung scored 27 points and 7 rebounds, a career high and fully demonstrated his offensive ability. If Shin Kyung strengthens his physical confrontation, he can become the Rockets' starting center next season, with excellent passing vision and basketball finishing ability, which is a type of player that the Rockets have not had for a long time. He and Jaylen Green are very well matched, at present Jaylen Green does not have enough ball rights, and after he can average 5 assists per game, I believe that There will be more and more tacit understanding between Jaylen Green and Shen Jing.
Two rookies were played in one season, which was a success for rebuilding the team, and Shin Kyung is only 19 years old this year as an interior player. It is rare to play such a performance in the first year, and among the new talents in the inner line this season, only Tanhua Mobley performed better than Shen Jing. Shin Kyung can gradually grow into the core of the Rockets' organization, and in stark contrast to these two players, the two main players Porter Jr. and Tate play badly, not at all like players who have played in the NBA.
If Porter Jr. could not play the number one position because of insufficient ball quotient, Tate deliberately isolated Jaylen Green, ignored Jaylen Green many times, and preferred to stop the ball at the top of the arc rather than give Green a pass. Head coach Silas also made adjustments, the whole game only gave him 20 minutes of playing time, he is the same as Porter Jr., I am afraid it will become a trading chip, unless these two players can put their position, the Rockets will not leave two players, the trade is also imperative, Tate + Porter Jr. is the player who affects the further development of Jaylen Green.
After two consecutive wins, the Rockets gave up the penultimate position, which is not a good thing for the draft picks, and the Rockets cannot win the next game, otherwise they may let their draft picks fall further. The Next few games of the Rockets can be completely delegated to Jaylen Green and Shen Jing, especially Jaylen Green, who needs to further improve his stats, and if the average points at the end of the season reach 16 points and the three-point shooting rate reaches 35%, it is a successful rookie season.
