Live broadcast on September 28 News Rockets coach Silas expressed his willingness to cultivate young people when attending the team’s media day activities, and talked about his expectation for little giabari Smith, a flower show.
When asked if he was satisfied with witnessing the growth of Jay Green, Silas responded, “Yes, I am confident in cultivating young players, I have focused on this matter throughout my coaching career, and everyone has seen how Jay Green has made progress. Of course, besides me, coach John Lucas has also made outstanding contributions to player development.”
Speaking of little giabari Smith, Silas continued: “For little giabari, what everyone needs to know is that he is a very talented defensive player. Next, we need to study his shooting posture, analyze those goals that he made and did not make, and evaluate his position on the court and what kind of shooting opportunities he is used to getting, we will teach him everything. But his defense is the part that excites me most, and I will really let him get experience in this aspect. When the summary meeting was held at the end of last season, we said that defense was the most urgent part for us to improve. I believe little Jabari is the puzzle to complete this step.”
