Live Bar, September 21 news Rockets coach Silas said in an interview this week that he and the coaching staff spent a lot of time staying with this year’s rookie during this off-season, which would be beneficial for newcomers to integrate into the team, adapt to NBA.
The Rockets had four first-round shows last year, but due to the epidemic and other reasons, Jay Green and others did not have much time to prepare for the team before the start of the season, and this year’s rookie-little Jamari Smith, tarry Ethan and Thai-Washington have trained with other players in Houston after the summer league.
Speaking of this, Silas said: “We stayed with Jabari Smith, tarry Ethan, Tetai Washington and Trevo hikins for a longer time and watched more of their matches, therefore, they can better understand them and then help them find out how to play a better role. For us, it is absolutely beneficial to have so much time before the start of the season.”
“During this period of time, there are so many people appearing in the training ground, including veterans and newcomers. Everyone is trying hard to train, which is really very good. I used to spend a long time watching their training in the gym. After finishing the strength training, they would practice shooting on the court. By the way, they had several matches, which was really interesting, especially in August, in September.” Silas added.
The Rockets’ training camp for the new season is about to open next week, and they will have their first preseason on on October 3, Beijing time.
