29 points, 26 points, 25 points! I hope Van Jordan stays in the team, Uduka sends a request, Green must recognize the reality

The Rockets, the second in the West, lost 3-4 to the Warriors in the first round. It's a tough ending for Rockets fans. But there is nothing to regret. The Warriors are indeed a better team than the Rockets. Because they won four championships, Curry and Butler were two superstars. The Rockets have no superstar, and they can tie the Warriors for the seventh tie, and the Rockets are already very outstanding. What's more, the Rockets didn't crush the Warriors in the regular season record, they won 4 more games than the Warriors.

What the Rockets need to do during the offseason is to plan the lineup carefully, leave the people who should leave, and stay the team who should stay. Currently, the Rockets' primary mission is to keep Van Jordan and Adams behind. According to famous reporter Stein, the Rockets have reached an agreement with Van Jordan to postpone the execution of the 44.9 million team option until the end of June. The Rockets definitely want to keep Van Jordan, but they won't give them an annual salary of 40 million. The Rockets are likely to sign a longer contract with Van Jordan with a lower annual salary, and then use the saved space to sign back to Adams.

Before, the Rockets gave Van Jordan a three-year contract and gave him a 2-year maximum salary, which is the standard 2+1 team-leading option. It just wants to spend two years at a high price. When the Rockets rookie needs to renew the contract, or when the team wants to sign a space, Van Jordan can also open the channel for the Rockets by re-signing the contract in time. This is a strategy of killing two birds with one stone. And Dillon's 5-year contract was just not expensive at all. Stein believes that the Rockets and Van Jordan have a mutual interest.

First of all, after losing to the Warriors, Van Jordan said bluntly during an interview that he wanted to stay with the Rockets. Uduka also said after the game that he really hopes the team can keep Van Jordan. Van Jordan's performance in the playoffs is indeed worthy of his annual salary of 40 million. In 7 games, Van Jordan broke out in 3 games, scoring 29 points, 26 points and 25 points, averaging 18.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game, and a three-point shooting percentage of up to 43.5%. Van Jordan's new contract is definitely not worth 40 million, but 25 million to 30 million is worth it.

Van Jordan has a defensive influence, and he is also the only player in the Rockets' control and passing the game. In the final analysis, the only problem with the Rockets losing in the first round is Jaylen Green. When you point guard can't score, you say the others are useless. Looking at the second round of the Warriors and the Timberwolves' battle, the Warriors are still ahead of the Timberwolves' rebound. The Rockets' double towers obviously hit the Warriors' weakness. In the first round, the Rockets relied on Adams and Shin Kyung, as well as a group of forward teams, with 328 rebounds on rebounds, the Warriors only had 277 rebounds, and the Rockets had a net victory of 51 rebounds. With such an advantage, the Rockets still lose to the Warriors, so it can only be said how bad their point guard is.

Jaylen Green was not defending, and scoring was his only valuable thing. In 7 games against the Warriors, Jaylen Green averaged 13.3 points per game and shot 37%. In the second game, he scored 38 points in 7 games, scored single digits in 4 games, and scored 11 points and 12 points in 2 games. No wonder when Stone and Uduka were interviewed, a reporter asked when Green was asked when the Rockets' offense and defense data were better when they came out, both of them seemed embarrassed. You really have nothing to brag about Green. If you replace Green with any point guard, not to mention Booker and Lavine, you can replace Green with Jordan Poole Rockets to advance.

, even let White Demon and Whitmore come up and score single digits in every game. The biggest problem is psychologically. Green was so cowardly that he didn't dare to take action in the next two games. Uduka also sent a signal that he said he wanted Greendo to play without the ball next season. To put it bluntly, he thought he was unreliable and did not want to give him tactical status. It is worth mentioning that after being eliminated by the Warriors, many Rockets players resumed training, while Green went on vacation with his 40-year-old girlfriend. Green needs to recognize the reality. The Rockets are not giving them a chance, because they were the second place and only gave them 4 years, but you can't help them. That's why Uduka said that he would give White Demons and Shepard more opportunities next season, which is a disappointment with Green.
