In the basketball league, Silas is a well-respected veteran assistant coach. However, his management skills have been controversial and the discord in the dressing room has led to turmoil within the team. Lucas Sr. was moved out of the dressing room as a result, causing a series of problems. Neither Wood nor Porter Jr. accepted the coaching staff's arrangement, and this internal conflict became a problem for the team to ignore.
It's worth mentioning that Wood and Porter Jr., who had previously caused a locker room storm with the Houston Rockets, are now back together under Udoka's guidance. In addition to this, Dillon's outstanding performances have also brought new changes, and his talent and performance have been recognized.
However, unlike the Rockets, the Bucks, who are now highly competitive, are also facing internal problems, with head coach Adrian Griffin having trouble dealing with the emotions of player Bobby Portis. Portis questioned the head coach and team-mates after the game, which called into question Griffin's management skills. At the same time, the Rockets are also reportedly under pressure to strengthen their interior line, while Fagan of the Athletic said Portis is one of the candidates they are considering.
Not only that, but the injury problems within the team have also caused some problems for the development of the team. Landale missed the game due to illness, and even he struggled to meet the expectations of the coaching staff. Therefore, the team needs to find new solutions to make up for the lack of squads. Dillon, meanwhile, has trained hard in the offseason and his performance has been recognized.
In contrast, Portis' form does not seem to have improved much, which has also become a major problem for the team's internal management. These internal problems have undoubtedly brought certain challenges to the development of the team, but they have also left many questions for fans and **. How will the team's management respond to these issues?Does Portis' attitude affect the team's overall performance?For the Rockets, will they be able to find a suitable interior reinforcement?
Hopefully, these questions will be answered as the season progresses. Houston Rockets interior player Portis hasn't been as good as he could have been this season. He shot just 47 from the field6%, and the defensive efficiency ranking in the league has also slipped to 200th. This apparent underperformance doesn't make his trade worth a lot. Portis complains about others without first reflecting on himself, which worries some Rockets fans.
He has an annual salary of $11.71 million this season and three years left on his contract, but the possibility of him being traded away is there. In addition, Portis was once labeled a prickly head due to his fiery temper. At the same time, the rest of the Rockets' players showed a different picture.
Udoka isn't afraid of a similar image of Portis, while Dillon, who was previously seen as a locker room instability by the Grizzlies general manager, has been doing well in Houston, scoring 23 points in his last game and being the main contributor to the win. Their performances have shown that Portis, who has calmed down and focused on playing, has the potential to help the team as well.
Although Portis has not been as good as he could have this season, he has an astonishing stats of 2.11m tall and 2.18m reach, and can shoot three-pointers, defend and defend rebounds. What's more, he also has a whopping 43 playoff games and championship experience. In the past, Udoka has tried to poach Da Luo from the Bucks, but unfortunately failed. Given Portis' quality and experience, he could be a good choice.
Overall, despite Portis' underwhelming performances, his potential and experience are still worth considering. If he can calm down and focus on playing, I believe he can bring more help to the team.
