The Rockets seek to change and then upgrade, and the coach reveals the rotation plan, replacing the two guards or coexisting?
Houston head coach Udoka said he intends to make a major change to the team, this time with two reserve players rotating on the court. Amen Thompson didn't return to Houston immediately after his return, and he was transferred to the Development League, where he practiced Xi and played with his pit viper. Amen Thompson also played well in the development league, and he also had a triple-double, which made the Rockets staff very happy, so he quickly returned to the team.
However, the return of Amen Thompson is also a good thing, and the other two defenders, VanVleet and Aaron Holiday, have also played well. Udoka, a good manager, was not swayed by these issues and showed us the team's rotation plan, with one option being to put Amen Thompson alongside Aaron Holiday and believe that two bench players could be on the starting lineup at the same time.
Amen Thompson has only played four games for the Rockets this season due to an ankle problem, and his performance has been average. He admits he needs more time to adjust to the high density of NBA games, while his twin brother Osar Thompson needs more time to adjust to his condition. However, Amen Thompson has proven his all-around talent and it is a good league to develop.
Udoka said Amen Thompson can bring energy to the Rockets on and off the court, and also intends to put him in the starting lineup, especially when the rest of the guards are out due to injury. The matchup against the Spurs looks set to be Amen Thompson's first appearance since his return, and in his opinion, Amen Thompson will have a good performance to show to his supporters and staff.
Yudeka hopes that Amen Thompson will be able to control the attacks on the court well and will be able to protect multiple characters well. Aaron Holiday is a different kind of offense, and he's good at breaking through the basket while also shooting from beyond the three-point line. Although he is lower defensively, he still relies on the suppression and suppression of opponents to complete a steal. Woodgar argues that, theoretically, they can complement each other, and that the real effect will be to create chemistry on the field.
