The state has indeed declined significantly! Shouldn t the Rockets, with limited quotas, sign back the 39-year-old striker veteran?

In a previous NBA preseason game, the Houston Rockets defeated the Atlanta Hawks 122-113. After this game, the Rockets got a good start in the preseason, while the Hawks suffered a bad start in the preseason.

In this game, the Rockets' substitute veteran Jeff Green can only be considered a sloppy performance. Green played 15 minutes and 17 seconds in the game, made 0 of 2 shots, 0 of 2 three-point line, and 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 2 points, 5 rebounds and 2 steals. He also had 1 turnover and 1 foul, with a plus-negative value of +11. Green did not show enough scoring ability on the offensive end, nor did he exert his shooting ability. His performance in other aspects is also relatively average, and his defensive ability has actually deteriorated to a certain extent. Overall, Green's condition is indeed relatively average. It seems that his personal ability has declined significantly. It is difficult for him to show particularly competitive performance on the court. He is also one of the players whose Rockets' performance in this game is relatively unsatisfactory.

In the NBA regular season last season, Jeff Green made a total of 32 appearances in 82 games, averaging 12.4 minutes per game, averaging 5.4 points, 1.8 rebounds, 0.6 assists, 0.2 steals and 0.1 blocks, and 0.3 turnovers and 1 foul. His shooting percentage was 50.4%, three-point shooting percentage was 36.7%, and free throw shooting percentage was 80.8%. In the playoffs, Green only got three chances, and averaged only 1.8 minutes per game, with averaging 1 point and 0.3 rebounds, a shooting percentage of 33.3%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 100%. In fact, Green's playing time last season was already very limited. He was basically unable to enter the team's rotation lineup during the regular season. He also had no way to get a chance to play during the playoffs. Moreover, judging from Green's performance last season, his ability has indeed declined significantly, and he really felt that he was unable to do so.

However, this summer, the Rockets still signed back to 39-year-old Green with a veteran's basic salary contract, which is more or less surprising. At present, the Rockets are restricted by the restriction of the first tyrant line and cannot sign another player to improve the team's shortcomings in the No. 1 position. In the forward position, the team seems to be overcrowded, and it seems that the elderly Green is indeed difficult to play a role on the court. Of course, the Rockets can use the role of a locker room as a reason to sign Green, but when the number of players is limited, they do not give priority to strengthening the team's shortcomings, but choose this method to give a contract at will, which is obviously a signal that is not very favorable to the team's long-term development. I don’t know if Green can adjust his form and perform better in the next preseason.
