4 battlefields are 12+11! Rockets welcome good news, Amen is talented, should Udoka be corrected
With the NBA trade door closed, the Houston Rockets officially missed the reinforcement, and they could only play one season with this gang before the end of the season, and according to Udoka's theory, all teams would make the playoffs under his coaching, but this team, which is ranked 12th in the West, is really in trouble.
Four consecutive defeats, injuries, public opinion interference from the outside world, etc., have made this already immature team "worse", and soon, everyone will be focused on next year's draft, and even shouted out to Udoka. Indeed, under Udoka's coaching, the Rockets ushered in a wave of high-opening and low-going this season, once killing the defending champion Nuggets three times, breaking the Lakers and other traditional giants, but this is obviously not enough.
When the opponent takes the Rockets seriously, when Udoka's defensive system is dismantled, what is left of him, the answer is time; as we all know, the Rockets have included Adams in his command, and he will wear the No. 4 jersey for the Rockets next season, his appearance is regarded as Shen Jing's substitute by Udoka, in another way of thinking, if the Rockets trade Shen Jing, he can also make up for the vacancy on the inside as soon as possible, but this is not a signal to give up this season.
Now it seems that Van Jordan, Ethan's injury has made the Rockets unified, and it has also given some young players a chance, such as Whitmore and Amen Thompson, the former has entered the rookie TOP 5, the latter was put into the starting line after Van Jordan's absence, in the last 4 games, Amen Thompson has won a double-double in 3 games, averaging 12.0 points, 11.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game.
On the offensive end
In contrast, Amen Thompson's offensive and defensive ability is very distinctive, it is undeniable that his style of play is very single on the offensive end, most of which comes from the air cutting ability of positional warfare, the conversion ability of fast attack counterattack and the lethality after blocking and dismantling, in addition, Amen has almost no achievements in the medium and long range shooting ability, which is a great flaw, and it is also the main reason why Amen is criticized.
Defensively
In addition to rebounding ability, Amen Thompson is also excellent defensively, he will judge the opponent's passing route, and excellent steals will help the team to quickly counterattack. Of course, Amen's individual defensive ability, compared to the level of the entire league, is enough to give the Rockets peace of mind, although there is still a lot of room for physical confrontation with Amen, but this is enough for the Rockets to see what Amen will look like in the future.
Write at the end
Amen's rebounding and defensive performance is his instinct to survive in the league. VanVleet is the team's main point guard, he has excellent outside shooting ability, but his efficiency value is too poor, and his creativity on the playmaking end is not as good as Amen, if Amen can practice his mid-to-long-range shooting ability, he will occupy the Rockets' starting guard position in the future.
