2023 Post Sprint Game On December 27, the Rockets lost to the Pacers 117-123 at home, and Jalen Green once again became the one on the cusp. Bangyanxiu played 20 minutes today, shooting 2 of 7, scoring 5 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists, and when he was on the court, the Rockets lost by 19 points. This number is also the lowest on the Rockets team. To put it mildly, Green, are you the undercover agent on the other side?
After all, scolding and scolding, after all, he is his own child, and after saying so much, in the final analysis, he hopes that he will get better. After all, you are the eye of the example, when the Rockets selected you, they had high hopes for you, and they were completely cultivated as the core of the team. But you look at Shen Jing, you look at Ethan, which one is not better than you now?
You say Green is incapable, he was a showman, and he gave you two personal highlights from time to time. In the game against the Nuggets on Dec. 9, Green scored 25 points to help the Rockets win last season's championship for the third time this season. ButSince then, Green has never found his crosshairs: averaging just 117 points and 30 percent from the field5%, 3-point shooting percentage 267%, and the dish is quite stable and consistent.
Even, everyone began to wonder if there was something wrong with Green's psychology. After all, Green, who was born in 2002, is not yet 22 years old. At this age, you will be subjected to all kinds of fierce criticism from the outside world, and it is indeed easy to have problems. Think of Kwame Brown, the top talent, who was scolded by Jordan until the psychological defense line completely collapsed, and finally faded out of the league at the age of 30. Fortunately, Bennett came along later, which helped Brown relieve a lot of pressure.
Psychology is a great bonus for players. Once I played well, I was full of confidence, how to vote, how to have, everything was smooth. If the continuity is not smooth, you will start to doubt this and that, and when you really have the opportunity, you will become constrained and your ability will be greatly reduced.
So I do feel that,Green, this kid, can't continue to scold. In addition to scolding, this world can also use love to influence people. Isn't it true that you don't have self-confidence, so it's better to go to the development league for a while, compete with opponents whose level is far inferior to your own, brush out the data first, and raise your confidence. Even if it is facing the middle school league, with 100 points, 50 rebounds and 30 blocks in a single game, this is something worth showing off. As long as you have self-confidence, then it is natural to return to normal.
For the Rockets, this season is the first promising season after three consecutive seasons. Judging from the team's first 1 3 schedules, it is still very competitive, and the Nuggets next door are trying to find a way to go around the playoffs. With everyone in great shape, everyone is bound to expect more from Green. So I still hope that everyone will give Green a little more time to turn around his mentality and adjust his state, after all, there are still a lot of games to play this season, and it is not yet time to really sprint.
But some people will also ask, what if Green is put in the development league and he still can't play?Then you have to do what you have to do. I believe that it is impossible for the Rockets management to turn a blind eye to Green's slump, and must be thinking about trading opportunities, with center bench players and players with independent offensive ability all the focus on.
In addition, Green will also face the first window of his career next summer. If he is still in such a slump, then what he will smash is his first big contract.
We can also give Green time
