Whitmore saved his team's life with 17 points in the half! Will the Rockets consider letting him start the game?
In the early morning of February 10, Beijing time, Houston will usher in a game with the Raptors, due to the poor performance of Shenkin, Green, Amon, Delon and others, seven mistakes in the first quarter in a row, resulting in a 14-point gap, so that the Rockets fell into a huge trap.
In the second quarter of the game, Udoka was forced to replace Whitmore, Holliday, Green Sr., and Tate, and in this game, they tied the game with a 16-0 squad. Whitmore, in particular, scored 17 straight points, even more so on his outside shots. If Whitmore hadn't played well in the game and extended the score, they might have fallen short in the second quarter. Although Shen Jing and other starters returned later, leaving the Rockets 12 points behind in the first half, there is still the possibility of a comeback in the case of at least 0-0.
I don't remember exactly, the guy called "White Ghost", he saved the Rockets many times, he scored in a variety of ways, he was very hard in the game, and he was in a very good mental state, this time he didn't shoot in the box, and next time he had the guts to shoot. In addition, he has a strong physique, and with this strength, he can swallow the enemy. Aren't these people exactly what the main players of the Rockets dream of? The Rockets have to make a decision that will make him more effective and safer against Jalen Green. The Rockets should have kicked Green out of the five-man group and replaced them with the White Devils as the starting playmaking guard, which would be good for the Rockets' long-term development.
