Statistically, this is Garruba's most played game of the season and the most rebounds of Garuba's career, but Garuba is the only player among the Rockets who has not scored.
In the Rockets' last loss to the Kings, Fernando showed tougher rebounding protection than Garruba and an impact on the opponent's penalty area, so in this game, Garuba far outperformed Fernando.
The highlight of Fernando's game is the protective frame, when Fernando was on the field, the protection of the basket was very good, the most intuitive data is to play 18 minutes and 3 blocks, while Fernando's scoring ability under the basket is also very good, shooting 9 shots 6, get 12 points, these 12 points are basically obtained under the basket, the opponent's defensive intensity is not large, once Fernando encounters the opponent's tough defense, lack of offensive autonomy, can not play the opponent, exposing Fernando's poor offensive space, And Fernando lacked sufficient offensive means.
Garuba is not much better than Fernando on the offensive end, it can be accurately said that it is worse than Fernando, Garuba does not have enough offensive means on the offensive end, and can occasionally barely shoot three points on the outside, but the number of shots and hits are not enough to become the point of attention of the opponent, Garuba's height and arm span appear to be a loss in the basket singles, easy to be blocked, this game Garruba was capped twice, Garuba is the most suitable for blocking and dismantling the cake, as well as working near the basket, but also the other side has no defense.
Garuba's offensive skill pack is indeed insufficient, but the participation in the offensive scene is very sufficient, Garuba's blocker is very good, Garuba's awareness of blocking and dismantling is very strong, especially good at creating small opportunities for teammates, Jaylen Green's several shots are the offensive opportunities created by Garruba's blocking, Garuba's passing awareness is good, the passing technology is also good, and the offensive skills and offensive techniques are thrown at the offensive end, and the role of other aspects is very obvious, which is a technique that Fernando does not have.
From the defensive end, in this game, the Rockets led by up to 19 points during the period, Garupa sat under the basket, Garuba's single defense ability is good, the sense of complementary defense and co-defense is very good, and Garuba's ability to change defense is good, when Garuba sits under the basket, the Kings basically did not play into the inside line, Garuba was on the court, the Rockets' overall defense is more outstanding.
From the current point of view, In addition to Garouba's lack of shooting ability, as well as offensive techniques and skills, other aspects will be very much, as a defensive interior line, as an organizational and tandem tactical interior line, Garruba is more than enough, the Rockets need to help Garruba develop shooting ability, so as to maximize the value of Garuba, which is also a major help for the future reconstruction of the Rockets.
