On August 21st, Beijing time, news about the new season schedule came from the NBA. At present, the NBA has announced the schedule for the new season, and the closest thing to us now is undoubtedly the preseason. There is only more than a month until the start of the preseason. Although this period seems to be very long and painful, But this is a rare buffer time for the team, and after selecting four rookies in this year's draft, everyone is also looking forward to the Rockets, which ranked last in the regular season last season. People are looking forward to having many potential players. What kind of performance can the rookie Rockets perform in the new season.
Here we first introduce to you the Rockets preseason schedule. First, the Rockets will face the Wizards on October 6, Beijing time, the Heat on October 8, the Raptors on October 12, and the Spurs on October 16. In these four games, the Rockets actually have a chance to win. Although the main purpose of the preseason games is still to examine newcomers, we also know that if we can better integrate the lineup in the preseason and win, then It is still very helpful for the performance of a young team in the new season, and in these four games, what we should focus on is the game against the Heat.
The Heat have undergone relatively big changes this offseason. They first sent away Dragic, Achiuwa and others in exchange for All-Star guard Kyle Lowry, and then they renewed Made an appointment with the famous football star Butler and shooter Duncan Robinson. Later, they also signed PJ-Tucker, Morris and other very good role players, so overall, the Heat's lineup next season is absolutely It can be considered a powerful team in the East and should not be underestimated. When the young Rockets meet this strong team in the league, they are actually very valuable for training, especially for young players such as Porter Jr., Green, and Shen Jing. Although no one will take the preseason seriously. Fight, but I believe the Rockets will still take it seriously.
In addition, the strength of the Raptors, which has changed a lot during the offseason, is also good. After selecting the No. 4 pick Scotty Barnes, their wing defense can be said to be very strong, which is very important for the Rockets' forwards. It will be a huge test. If the Rockets can perform well offensively against the Raptors' defense in the preseason, then I believe the Rockets will still be full of hope next season. This preseason game is actually the first time that the Rockets backcourt duo of , Kevin Porter Jr., , and Jaylen Green have come together. We are very much looking forward to their surprising performance, and let's look forward to it together in a month's time. Let's compete.
