Green's rampage, the Rockets would be miserable without Dillon.
After talking about this battle, what we want to talk about is the performance of the players, Dillon's absence made the Rockets' defense collapse, before Dillon resisted the opponent's attack, and the rest of the players did not have much burden, but with Dillon's absence, the team became very bad, from the current point of view, the Rockets signed Dillon for 4 years and 84 million, and there is no loss. In this game, Van Jordan had a terrible performance, he only made 4 of 11 shots, and only had 10 points and 6 rebounds.
Jalen Green performed very well, he shot 8 of 20, 6 of 12 three-pointers, got 23 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, his physical fitness is not good, so he has not shown much improvement, he has been in the NBA for three years, but his performance has not improved much, his performance has not improved much, but Shen Jing has performed very well, 18 shots, only 9 shots, got 24 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist.
Jabari Smith had nine points and three rebounds on 2-of-5 shooting, and he had a very good performance, compared to his opponent, who scored 12 points on 4-of-5 free throws. Although they lost the game, the Rockets' tenacity was admirable, and they did not admit defeat even when they were behind in the first half, which is a winning spirit.
Durant and Booker swapped positions.
In this game, the Suns' Nurkic returned, he had 8 points and 10 rebounds on 3-of-6 shooting in 14 minutes, and his excellent blocking skills and excellent passing helped the team play a beautiful match. In this game, Gordon played well, 10 of 15 free throws, 7 of 11 three-pointers, scored 27 points and 1 assist, and it is not certain when Beal will come back, at this time, Gordon's attack is still very threatening, so he must be allowed to play.
The position of Durant and Booker has changed, Durant has become the main player in the ball, he has played his passing ability to the fullest, Durant shot 9 of 16, got 27 points, 10 rebounds, 15 assists, 2 blocks, while Durant got 16 assists, without the previous pressure, Booker shot 9 of 18, got 20 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists.
SunCity's recent performance has not been good, mainly because of Beal's absence, but Beal's form is really poor, so it is difficult for Vogel to inject enough manpower into his team, so Vogel has to make some changes to the hole cards in his hand, and Durant's defensive ability is not strong, but he has been in the NBA for so long, his passing ability is also very strong, this game played a big role, Allen scored 16 points, Azubuik scored 11 points.
