Beijing time on September 27, now there are only 3 days left before the start of the new NBA preseason, I believe that after about 3 months without games, fans must be very much looking forward to the arrival of the new season. Today all teams have already held media day activities, after which the training camp will officially open and the pre-season will also be held during the training camp. In today's media day, there are several teams that deserve our attention, among which the interview with a number of top potential rookies of the Rockets team has also excited many Rocket fans.
First of all, let's pay attention to the interview with the Rockets' rising star Jaylen Green, in today's interview Green revealed a very good news, that is, he has gained weight. According to Jaylen Green, he gained about 10 pounds in the offseason, that is, almost 10 pounds, and now Green has reached 166 pounds, which is definitely a huge boost for him. Because we all know that Green's technology and running and jumping ability are very top-notch, but he is too thin, the ability to fight is insufficient, and his end in the confrontation is also easily affected, these are indeed where he needs to improve, Green also knows what he needs to improve, he is also a very hard player, so in this offseason we also successfully saw the results of his efforts.
Another closely watched Rockets rookie, Shin Kyung, put out harsh words in an interview, saying: "We are a young team with a lot of energy. Maybe not this year and next year, but one day we can be the strongest in the league. If we want to succeed, we still have a lot to learn. At the same time Jokic is my idol. From here, we can see that Shinkyo's ambition is still very big, he hopes to help the Rockets win the championship, but also hopes to become a player like Jokic, and we also expect Shinkyo to become a better version of himself and bring more energy to the Rockets."
Finally, we can pay attention to Rocket veteran Eric Gordon, who has been stuck in the trade rumors. In today's interview, Gordon revealed that he is most certain that he most wants to retire the team, that is, the Rockets, but he also said that whether he can retire in the Rockets is not up to him, because it is a business field after all. In fact, the Rockets are not very anxious to deal with Gordon, because Gordon can indeed help the Rockets more, such as helping young players such as Green and Smith grow, hoping that he can have a perfect result with the Rockets.
