Rockets newcomer Davidson made his debut 17+3+4, with an annual salary of only $62,000, but it is more practical than Shepard

On October 7, the Rockets stood out from the sky, and the two-way contract player performed well. The performance of Shepard in Tanhua showed off, but his salary was 165 times lower. It's really sad. Sometimes people just need an opportunity.

In the preseason game where the Rockets defeated the Hawks, JD Davidson, who had just signed a two-way contract, played for the team and made his Rockets' debut in his career. As a result, after only 22 minutes, he scored 6 of 9 shots and scored 17 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists. He was nicknamed "Northeast Rain Sister" by fans, and he played very well in this game. In fact, many people don't know that he is a player whose income is not even comparable to "Sister Yu".

JD-Davidson is actually playing as a substitute point guard in the Rockets team. However, as the third point guard in this game, he performed well and started the starter Shepard. To be honest, Shepard's performance is really not good. Xiao Xie, who started the game, played 2 of 6 in 19 minutes, scored 7 points only after 1 of 4 three-pointers, and made 3 mistakes and 3 fouls. The key is that he only had 1 assist.

A point guard has 7 points, 1 assist and 3 turnovers. The good balls passed are not as good as his mistakes. The key is that his positive and negative value on the court is -6, which means he lost points from the game. Who do you think he can make sense? The Rockets finally chose a high-ranking genius, but now it seems that it is completely scrapped. Shepard's salary in the new season is as high as $10.6 million, which is too exaggerated.

On the contrary, the substitute point guard around him, JD Davidson, as the third point guard, came up and got 17+3+4, with four times the assists, and there was no foul, only 1 turnover. The key is that Davidson's salary is only $62,000, which is really a miserable person compared to Shepard, and his salary is too low. What does

$62,000 mean? He and Shepard's salary are 165 times different. He was the second round pick of the Celtics before. He played for three seasons with the Celtics, but was not valued. But now we can feel that as the former Celtics coach, Uduka likes Davidson very much. He is stable in the third point guard in this team and even the second point guard in the future because he is really better than Shepard.

First of all, he is now better than the Rockets' second point guard Holiday, and secondly, he is also better than the team's starter Shepard. Xiao Xie's pick really makes the Rockets feel a little hard to describe. A Tanhua Show is not as good as a two-way contract player, so what else can you say?

So on the one hand, the Rockets were surprised, and they got a 23-year-old super genius from the two-way contract. On the other hand, the Tanhua show he chose was beaten by a low-ranking two-way contract student with the 23rd pick in the second round. Isn't this equivalent to wasting a draft pick?

Now it is not only scoring ability, but also physical confrontation ability, organizational ability and rebounding ability. JD Davidson is better than Shepard, with better luck control than him and more confidence than him. It is not easy for the Rockets to choose a high-ranking rookie, but Shepard can play like this in the preseason in such a shortage of people, which can only be regrettable that this draft pick in Houston is wasted.
