November 14th, so far in the new season, it can be said that most of the promising teams in the offseason have achieved very good results, such as the Nuggets, Rockets, and Lakers. Of course, there are also disappointing teams, such as the Clippers.

The Rockets have 7 wins and 3 losses so far this season and are ranked fourth in the Western Conference. To be honest, it is quite surprising. After all, they injured Van Jordan and the team has no real point guard. Moreover, the team also introduced Durant as the core. I thought they would need a long running-in period. As a result, the team now has a good chemical reaction. They have won 7 of the past 8 games.
The reason why the Rockets are able to perform so well is that, in addition to Durant's integration into the system, Shen Jing and Amen's scoring increase is also the key. Shen Jing is now playing at the level of the league's top insiders, and Amen has also performed as an All-Star. In addition, Shepard has also found his position. If he continues to play according to the current situation, he has the opportunity to compete for the best sixth man. The Rockets now seem to be full of energy, and they will strive for good results this season.

As a result, there was a team conflict today. In the Rockets' game against the Wizards, it was the third quarter. The Rockets established a 27-point lead in the first half. As a result, their offensive power was cut off in the third quarter and the opponent narrowed the point difference. After Uduka called a timeout, Ethan walked off the court. Jabari Smith had a teammate at the time. Because of the filming, we did not see who it was. They high-fived Ethan, but Ethan ignored it.
Perhaps for this reason, Adams talked about Ethan, but Ethan became dissatisfied and directly grabbed Adams' clothes and wanted to fight. Fortunately, the assistant coach at the time pulled them away, otherwise they might have started a fight on the court. To be honest, judging from the situation at the time, Adams had no intention of taking action, but Ethan did break through the defense. I don't know why Ethan is so angry, but this player has had a weird temper ever since he entered the league.

Ethan is a player who often likes the Black Warriors. He can be said to be the biggest Brave Warriors in the league. Green even used blackmail against him when he was chasing Dreams for this matter. Friends who often watch Rockets games should also have discovered that Ethan sometimes gets emotional on the court, especially after not getting the ball for a few rounds, he will wander around the court with a bad mentality. After the start of this season, this problem has become more and more obvious.
I think Ethan's current problems may be related to the fact that he did not get the big contract he wanted during the offseason. During the offseason, the Rockets and Ethan discussed contract renewal. As a result, because the Rockets were not satisfied with the offer, the two parties broke down and planned to discuss the contract renewal next summer. At that time, it was reported by the US media that the Rockets wanted to give him a contract similar to that of Jia Jia, with an average salary of 25 million in a long-term contract. If such a contract was true, it would be fine. After all, Ethan's health has never been guaranteed.

In the end, he didn't agree. Maybe it was because the Rockets didn't give him the contract he wanted. He began to resent the Rockets, and this resentment was also reflected on the court. Adams is a well-known good guy in the league. In a fight, if he really fights with others, it is estimated that no one in the league can beat him with more than one hand. Because Adams has a good temper and is willing to do dirty work, many teammates like him, and he is also very popular in the locker room. As a result, he is such a person, and Ethan still wants to do it.
I think the Rockets should give away Ethan the most. First of all, the Rockets will definitely not be able to give Ethan the big contract he wants in the future. Amen Thompson will renew his contract next summer. He can get a maximum of 5 years and 314 million contract next summer, plus the maximum salary of Durant and Shen Jing, and Van Jordan and Jabari Smith's contracts exceed 20 million, and the Rockets' salary pressure is too great. According to the current situation, their best outcome next summer is that no team will offer Ethan. In the end, he will stay with the team with a one-year qualification offer, but with his temper, there will definitely be trouble.

While the team can still trade him, it is better to send him away in exchange for valuable players. His character may affect the locker room sooner or later, and now that Shepard has grown up, the team may also consider giving Shepard a big contract in the future. Whether Ethan is considering his upper limit or his impact on the team, he is not suitable for the current Rockets. He has always regarded himself as a star, thinks he is worth the maximum salary, and loves to put on airs. It is useless to keep him.
Having said that, what do you want to say about the current Rockets and Ethan? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
