Amen's current offense can only break through and squeeze under the basket to grab rebounds to complete the second offense, as long as the opponent prevents his breakthrough, even if he is broken, as long as he protects the defensive rebound, Amen has become the team's *** because he lacks offensive means.
Fortunately, Amen has a defensive foundation, and this season's projection is like this, it depends on the hard practice in the offseason, if he can practice shooting, I believe Amen's future will become better.
Another player, Smith Jr., is still very stable, even if he doesn't feel good, he averages two doubles per game, and the defensive end is also very strong, Smith Jr.'s problem is that he is weak in confrontation, he can't hold the ball, and his explosiveness is insufficient, if he plays small-ball tactics, he can't be qualified for the No. 5 position, it's very good to be a 3D, once he is allowed to play, the team will definitely collapse, and the finishing ability offensive means are not good.
The current situation of the Rockets is that the strengths of the players cannot be brought into play, and they are forced to do what they are not good at, and the disadvantages are all exposed, that is, the lack of a good point guard tandem, and now they are all playing their own blind games, and the Rockets need mentors like Paul or Conley instead of the hot-headed Van Vleet.
