rocket shakes! Trade cores for top 3D and aim for the championship!
Beijing time on December 14, according to the US media "Bleacher Report", the Rockets are conducting a shocking transaction. They will send the team's core Jaylen Green, as well as Oladipo, Landale and two first-year players. Round pick in exchange for Bridges, the Nets' top 3D player.
This season, Jaylen Green's performance has been unsatisfactory, averaging only 18 points per game, shooting only 40.9% from the field, and only 32.3% from the three-point range. After experiencing a series of injuries, Green's performance and statistics have declined. However, this transaction does not mean that the Rockets have given up cultivating him, but are seeking stronger lineup depth and immediate combat effectiveness. After the game, a conflict broke out between the two in the locker room when Uduka criticized Green's performance!
The Rockets' target this time is Bridges of the Nets. He has performed well this season, averaging 23 points per game, as well as 5.9 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1 steal. What is even more worth mentioning is that his field goal percentage is as high as 48.6% and his three-point shooting percentage is also 38.3%. He is a player with comprehensive skills and both offense and defense. His arrival will greatly enhance the Rockets' lineup. Bridges not only performs well on the offensive end, but also has excellent perimeter defense capabilities. His arrival will greatly improve the quality of the Rockets' perimeter defense, and the frontline duo formed with Ethan will make the Rockets' defense stronger. At the same time, Bridges' outside shooting ability will improve the Rockets' current three-point shooting problem and make the team's offense smoother.
This transaction is an important reinforcement for the Rockets. Although they gave away Jaylen Green and two first-round picks, they got the players they needed, which will bring greater competitiveness in this season's games. At the same time, the Rockets have not given up on cultivating young players. They have kept Oladipo and Landale on the team in case of emergencies. For the Nets, although they lost Bridges, an important player, they received Jaylen Green, a talented young player, and two first-round picks as compensation. This will have a positive impact on the Nets' future. Overall, this trade is an important change for both teams. The Rockets obtained the players they needed through transactions to enhance the team's strength and competitiveness; while the Nets obtained important assets for the future, laying the foundation for the team's future development.
However, the success of the transaction still needs time to be tested. We need to see how the Rockets perform under the new lineup and Jaylen Green's development prospects with the Nets. Regardless, this trade will have a profound impact on the game this season.
Finally, as fans and media, we should pay attention to and look forward to the positive changes and challenges brought about by this transaction. The team needs to re-run and adjust under the new lineup, and the fans also need to adapt to the new players and playing style. At the same time, we must also provide sufficient support and encouragement to the players, hoping that they can achieve better results and develop in the new environment.
