I really want to play point guard! Let Jaylen Green hold the ball a lot, and the Suns should train him with all their might.

Jaylen Green's new season's point guard is basically decided, and Rockets reporter Kelly Iko talked about this on his show. He asked Green recently whether the Suns asked you to play point guard? Jaylen Green repeatedly told him that the Suns really wanted to let him play point guard in the new season and gave him enough chances. The Suns want Green to hold the ball in large quantities, which is almost a leader's privilege, and the point guard is well known as the brain.

In all teams, if a point guard can become the tactical core, he will be the absolute core when he develops. Just like Halliburton of the Pacers, can you say the leader is Sika? Halliburton is the soul of this team. The core of the Rockets now gradually becomes Shin Jing, because Shin Jing is a member of the Fire Dragon family, he is the axis of the inside line and the absolute organization point. This will be even more obvious next season. Durant is a tough player and does not affect Shen Jing's inside position.

Green was also full of treatment, and Iguodaro has decided to give up the No. 4 jersey to Green. When Green was selected by the Rockets in 21, he wanted House to give him the No. 4 jersey, and was even willing to buy it with money, but House refused. The Rockets simply sent House away, while Green wore the No. 4 jersey. Now the Sun also gives Green this treatment. In addition, Suns reporter John Gambadoro also revealed that the team originally wanted Booker to play point guard, but in the end they decided to give Green the opportunity.

Although data shows that Booker is more suitable to play point guard than Green. In a picture posted by the latest Suns media, Booker's data performance in playing point guard is better than Green's pass and control data last season. But there is nothing we can do about it. Because of Harden's success in the 16-17 season, Booker also served as point guard in the 17-18 season, but unfortunately the effect is indeed not good. Now the sun has given Green this chance again.

This should be a bold attempt. The Suns didn't want Green, and the main teams Booker and Bill were both point guards. But the Rockets held the Suns' lottery, and the team had to ask Green to be a meat ticket, plus Dillon and the No. 10 lottery. But if you want Green, you can only take a gamble. With Bill leaving, it is natural for Green to take over. When in the Rockets, Green fans said that Uduka has always played the 15 pick-and-roll of Shin Kyung and Van Jordan, and did not give Green the right to swing the ball. Now the sun satisfies Green.

Green and the Rockets will have a contract of 106 million in three years and will take effect next season. The Rockets finished Green's four-year rookie bonus, and whether this contract was worth the price depends on the end of the Suns. If Green plays point guard well in the new season, it is equivalent to the Rockets helping the Suns to win a new version of James Harden. The main reason is that the Rockets and Green only sign a three-year contract, which means that each side will leave a way out.

Green is not satisfied with his annual salary and wants a maximum salary, so he has the third year player option. The Rockets dare not give Green too long. If there is no Durant trade, the Rockets and Green will also make a decision after observing the next two seasons. Now the risk that Green can't fight is given to the Sun, but the Sun also has the opportunity to make a big success with a small profit. Of course, Green has no excuses. If Green still cannot explode in a stable state in the new season, there is nothing to say if he gives his football to hold the ball and unlimited opportunity to swing the ball in the new season.
