Rockets has lost 14 games in a row, and the whole team has no heart. It looks like they are heading for next year’s top pick. It doesn’t matter how bad the Rockets play. After all, it’s a rebuilt team. How good is Jaylen Green? Should be concerned, so how does Jalen Green perform? Let me speak slowly.
Let’s look at the basic data first. Green is currently averaging 14.5 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists, shooting 37.9% from the field and 28.4% from the three-point field. From this data In other words, Green’s performance is not good, but what is the specific problem?
Let’s talk about offense first. Green can take 13.4 shots per game, of which 6.8 three-pointers, accounting for half of the total number of attempts, while the shooting percentage is only 28.4%, Green's three-pointers are very inaccurate. So, how about Green's two-pointer performance? The answer is not bad. He averaged 6.6 shots per game and shot 45.5%. However, Green's mid-range shot was not accurate. In other words, Green's shot was very poor and he could not make two or three points, so he could only kill the basket.
Green's offense is generally inaccurate, but what is Green offensively good at? Good at catching and shooting, good at making quick shots, and good at hitting shots on defense. The reverse is the weakness of Green’s offensive end, that is, he is not good at dribbling the ball, is not good at creating offensive space by himself, and has poor performance when open.
In terms of Green’s current performance, he is better at making a ball-free point, like Thompson, hit the ball when he catches the ball, don’t let him hold the ball, and don’t let him find opportunities by himself, but he is different from Thompson The thing is, Green can’t catch the ball on the three-point line. On the three-point line, he needs to dribble the ball. It takes time so that he can make a shot. This is what makes the coach embarrassed. You let Green have less possession of the ball. , He is not allowed to three points, you let him control the ball, two points are not allowed, can solve this contradiction, only Green can catch the ball three-pointer, or practice the ball.
Let’s talk about the defensive end. Let’s start with a conclusion. Green’s defense is not good and can’t suppress the opponent’s offense. Next, let’s talk about the specific parts that are not good. Green’s best performance is perimeter defense, defending above 15 feet. hour,The opponent's shooting percentage increased by 0.6% compared to usual, which is not good compared to others, and it is good for Green's defense in other positions. When Green was defending in the 2nd division, the opponent's shooting rate was 9.6% higher than usual. When Green was defending less than 6 feet, the opponent's shooting rate was 15.1% higher than usual! What is the concept? A player who is not good at finishing at the basket can become a player with passing or even strong finishing ability under Green's defense. Green's defense is paperless and does not have any pressure on the opponent.
Finally, let’s take a look at Green’s pass. Green has the most passes to Porter, but Porter’s shot rate is not high after receiving Green’s pass, followed by and Wood, which is not good. Well, there are reasons why teammates can't score, and there are reasons why Green is not an excellent pass.
In general, Green’s offense with the ball is not good. If you train according to the core of the ball, Green needs to do a lot. The three-pointer performance is bad. If you can run for a while, the hit rate is still high and the rim finish is good. , This is Green’s biggest highlight.
On the defensive end, the perimeter defense is good, and training will have a big improvement, but the closer to the basket, the worse Green's defense will be. How to score without being passed by the opponent is a problem for Green's defensive end to study.
Summary:
Green is a second-best pick. The Rockets must choose him to train the ball-handling, but at present, Green's offensive percentage is not low, and the percentage of offensive possessions is not high, and Green's The ball has a bad performance and needs to be practiced. If you practice, you have to give Green more ball rights, reduce his off the ball, and let him keep trial and error on the court, but the Rockets now have the most shots. It is Wood. This is true. It's a bit strange. If the Rockets intend to train Green as a ball-handling player, they must change their strategy and let him hold the ball more. Green is talented, but the technique is very rough. If the Rockets don't cultivate well, Green's talent will be difficult to fulfill.
