The Rockets are very competitive in the Western Conference playoffs, and the Rockets have some pressure against the Pistons who have just ended their losing streak, and the two rookie Thompson brothers are talking directly in this game. The Rockets' state is relatively slow, Dillon Brooks continues to be absent, Jabari Smith has completed the recovery, and the 21st champion Cunningham PK Jalen Green, but the shooting of both players is very iron, relying on the play of two forward players, Eason and Tate, to maintain the lead.
Both teams are relatively young, the Rockets did not open up the difference, and the game lacked some vitality, but the Rockets had offensive strengths, and in the early stages of the third quarter of the game, VanVleet and Shen Jing played very efficiently and won 3 in a row. In fact, VanVleet's style of play has been controversial, with a lot of assists, but there are too many balls, and more only passes to Shen Jing, resulting in a lack of ball possession by players such as Jalen Green, but I have to admit that the Rockets' most stable possession of the ball is VanVleet, and Udoka also wants more ball points.
In the starting lineup of the Rockets, Udoka once wanted to create two offensive points with the ball, but Green's previous state was too sluggish, and he has only gradually recovered in recent games, and is more playing without the ball, Udoka is looking for the most suitable offensive tactics and offensive points for the Rockets' current offensive tactics and offensive points. In the third quarter of the game, the Rockets played the game that Udoka was looking forward to, Shen Jing and VanVleet were the first core, Shen Jing showed his offensive kaleidoscope ability on the inside, and Green scored points without the ball with his physical talent.
Shen Jing scored 20 points in a single quarter in the third quarter, and Green scored 17 points in a single quarter, which made the game lose suspense, although the opponent's strength was very limited, but it also proved to a certain extent that the Rockets were gradually back on track. Shen Jing's play is a normal operation, Green is a surprise, since being DNP in a row, has three consecutive games with a three-point shooting rate of more than 50%, if he can maintain this style of play, the Rockets' overall tactics will be improved, giving Shen Jing more space on the inside.
Green got 22 points and 5 rebounds in this game, the last 3 games, shot 16 three-pointers, and compared with the champion of the same year, better, Shen Jing 26 points, 4 rebounds and 9 assists, these two teams are the real core of the future of the Rockets, after a few games of downturn, the Rockets played the planned game, Jalen Green is now playing more decisively, not hesitating at all, the main force exploded, and also gave young players more opportunities, Amen Thompson, Whitmore got enough playing time.
As the first year of the end of the rebuild, the Rockets' performance is not stable enough, has been hovering in the 8-10 place, but has never fallen out of the top 10, the Rockets want to ensure the results, the biggest variable is actually Green, as long as he can play stably, the Rockets enter the playoffs this year is not a big problem, Green + Shen Jing got a total of 48 points and 10 assists, this is the data of clocking in and out of work in the third quarter, if you play longer, the data will be more luxurious, Whitmore proved himself again, 9 points in 7 minutes, violent dunks, Three points of mastery, can evolve into the sixth person.
