Rockets have cultivated for 3 years why Jaylen Green has not yet cashed in on the talent its roots surfaced

This season, the Rockets' most criticized player is Jaylen Green.

In the past two seasons, the rockets have positioned Jaylen Green as the core of the team to train, for which the rockets gave a lot of playing time and the number of shots, so that Jaylen Green quickly tried and wrong, so as to achieve the purpose of rapid growth.

This season, Jaylen Green is not only far from the role and positioning of the core of the team to build the team, its extremely unstable performance, so that the voice of trading Jaylen Green is also ready to come out.

This season, Jaylen Green appeared in 23 games for the Rockets, all starts, averaging 17.2 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 2.3 turnovers, 1.6 fouls in 30.9 minutes per game, shooting 39% from the field, 33% from three-point range, and 81% from the free throw line.

From such data, Jaylen Green's playing time, average shots per game, shooting percentage, three-point percentage, and average points per game are career lows.

From the rotation of the Rockets lineup, Jaylen Green's shooting percentage is the lowest in the team, and the average number of shots per game and the average score per game rank second in the team.

In a sense, Jaylen Green's offensive level and offensive state directly determine the ceiling of the Rockets.

According to the current rocket configuration, Jaylen Green as the team's iron starter, I can see that the Rockets still have expectations for Jaylen Green, at least to give Jaylen Green such status and authority, Amen Thompson and Whitmore are not currently such treatment, indicating that the Rockets still hope Jaylen Green evolution, at least to become the team's main attacker.

Jalen Green is not as good as expected in the long term, Jalen Green can digest the ball, but the offensive efficiency is not high, a good game bad several games, the offensive choice is bad, the ability to read the game is bad, the way and rhythm of his offense, and the other players of the team are out of touch.

Jaylen Green is currently more rely on instinct and ability to play, neither through the pick and roll to find the wrong position, to reduce the difficulty of their offensive shots, also not good at making fouls, through the free throws, Jaylen Green's many attacks are in the middle and far distance and even outside the three-point line, at will dry pull shots, into the pure look at the feel, once encountered high-intensity defense, Jaylen Green's offensive efficiency has plummeted.

So, what are the main issues with Jaylen Green on offense?

It is mainly due to the lack of ball quotient, insufficient understanding of basketball, too much attack through personal talent and personal ability, ignoring the stability of scoring efficiency, relying too much on jump shots, unable to guarantee the bottom of the offensive end, and not having a scoring ability to maintain the lower limit.

So, how to improve Jeroen Green's ball business, mainly rely on Jeroen Green's savvy, van Vliet's arrival is to enhance the rationality of Jeroen Green play, on the one hand, need Jeroen Green training hard practice, on the other hand, need Jeroen Green through the game video, find their own shortcomings, so as to improve, And each team has its own video and editor, and the Rockets head coach Uduka is very strict, often in the game to point out the players' mistakes, let the players grow quickly, once the players make mistakes, immediately replace them.

This rocket, from the perspective of configuration, after trading little Porter, over-reliance on Jeroen Green, Jeroen Green is the team's most explosive scoring player, but also digest the strongest offensive talent players, at least from the configuration of the rocket, frequent scoring drought, scoring constipation, the original idea of the rocket, is to let Jeroen Green bear the pressure, To be the leading player on the team.

From a number of recent games, the fourth quarter and even the key moment, Jaylen Green was Uduka DNP, even if the key moment, was not Uduka DNP, Jaylen Green's role in the team and presence is not strong, indicating that Jaylen Green's growth expectations are far from the team's goals.

From the current can clearly see, the status of Jeroen Green decline is very obvious, 21 years was selected as the core training of the team, this season for a long time to be positioned as a scorer, the recent long time to be positioned as the first half of the ball digestion, if Jeroen Green's growth has always been unable to play the rocket's expectations, was abandoned by the rocket is only a matter of time.
