After Harden forced the palace to leave the team, the rocket, an old strong team that insisted on not messing up for 20 years, also had to bow to reality, and has won the league's penultimate record for two consecutive seasons.
Quickly recognizing the positioning of the team, the Rockets selected 4 first-round shows in one go in the first season of the pendulum, of which Green, Shin Kyung and Christopher have already cashed in their talents.
Only the 23rd show Garruba is in a more difficult situation and has not been able to get enough opportunities in the Rockets, so the US media "Hoopshype" also conducted an exclusive interview with the new star in recent days.
Question one: Is the transition from a winning team like Real Madrid to the Rebuilding Rockets tough?
Garouba admits that everything is very difficult because everything you face is completely new and you need to figure out the rules by which the league works.
It is true that he has been playing for a successful team like Real Madrid and the Spanish national team, but he believes that the Rockets can get better next season.
Question two: What's the most surprising thing about your rookie season?
Garupa considers the physical challenge to be the most surprising thing to do, and it takes a lot of training in a short period of time, which makes me very tired all the time.
Even if you only play for 10 minutes, you need to keep all your energy on the field, which makes you realize the importance of eating healthy and resting well.
Problem three: The first season was a very good defensive performance
Garuba acknowledged the compliment and admitted that defending has always been his best thing, but he has not reached 100% on the defensive end.
His goal is clear, and he will continue to hone his defensive ability with the Rockets this summer, trying to become the best defensive player in the league, while planning to improve his offensive ability and be able to provide projection ability next to his teammates.
During this period, Garupa revealed that DeSagana Diop, John Lucas and Robbie Keck, three assistant coaches, will help him complete the promotion plan.
Question 4: Confirm participation in the Summer League and European Championships
Garubba is sure he will play in both events because he wants to play more games and has been trying to get more opportunities since he got his chance to play in March.
As long as you can stay healthy, you will participate in the Summer League and European Championships, and you have already informed the Rockets of the details.
Question Five: One of the best games of the rookie season is against Barnes
Garubba said he had forgotten the specifics of that game, but it was a very interesting experience against Barnes because Barnes was a very good player.
Since then, Garruba believes that there are a large number of good players in this rookie, such as Green, Shin Kyung, and Christopher.
There are also second-round drafts like Barnes, Cunningham, Mobley, herbert Jones, and even losing drafts like Alvarado.
Question 6: Which player's favorite player to study?
Garupa said he is very keen on studying the Warriors' dream game, and he downloads a lot of Green's game clips on his tablet and often studies them.
I want to build influence through defense and use communication with my teammates to show leadership, just like I do with my dreams.
Question 7: How do you see the future of Pak-Eye Green?
Garupa believes the sky is Green's limit, will be the league's top scorer in the coming years, and will soon become an All-Star.
Referring to this season's Timberwolves' Edwards, Green can reach his heights and even do better than him.
Question 8: What are your goals for next season?
I hope to be able to enter the regular rotation, the manager can arrange for himself to play in every game, and the team can help him grow, especially the promotion of the defensive end.
Of course, I also know that the team will further increase the number of talented players, so this summer is very important for me, will determine my career in the NBA, and I am willing to take on the challenge.
