Cattle! Cattle! WOJ: After losing to the Pelicans, the Rockets accelerated negotiations with the 25+20 interior giants.
Rocket aims for the 25+20 inner giant tower and tries to get out of the predicament!
After a string of setbacks, the Rockets finally decided to make a move. The recent poor record, with a 24-31 record and 12th place in the West, has made the decline of two consecutive losses even more worrying for this young team. The loss to the Pelicans made the Rockets realize that they need more changes and improvements.
In this game, although Shen Jing's performance was remarkable, scoring 20 points and 9 rebounds, the performance of other players was not satisfactory. Jalen Green's 3-of-14 shooting and VanVleet's 2-of-8 shooting both looked cold to the touch. Although the young Amen Thompson got 22 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 blocks, showing his potential, it is obviously difficult to change the fate of the entire team alone.
The Rockets brought in the likes of VanVleet, Dillon Brooks, Landale and Jeff Green this season, however, their performance did not work as expected. Especially in the middle and late stages of the season, when opponents gradually became familiar with and adapted to the Rockets' tactics and player characteristics, their performance dropped significantly. This makes the future of the Rockets increasingly uncertain.
However, General Manager Stone didn't give up on the season. He knows that this young team needs more time and experience to grow. Therefore, he decided to speed up negotiations with a 25+20 inside player, hoping to help the team out of the predicament by bringing in strong reinforcements.
Not only does this interior stalwart have great scoring ability, but he can also put opponents under pressure on the defensive end. His arrival will greatly enhance the overall strength of the Rockets. Especially as young players like Shin Kyung and Jalen Green grow up, the inside stalwart will be their most reliable partner and reliance.
It was a major turning point for the Rockets. They need to make the squad more competitive by bringing in reinforcements, but they also need to develop and train these youngsters better. Only in this way will they be able to achieve better results in future competitions and achieve their goals.
Of course, the process won't be easy. The Rockets also have many challenges and difficulties to face. However, as long as they persevere and continue to work hard, I believe that they will be able to get out of the predicament and meet a better future.
In conclusion, the Rockets are actively seeking change and progress. They want to improve the overall strength of the squad by bringing in strong reinforcements and developing young players. They will face many challenges and difficulties in the process, but as long as they persevere, I believe they will be able to succeed. Let's look forward to the best performances of this young team in the future competitions!
