Live broadcast on October 20 news the Rockets lost to the Eagles in the first regular season, and the Rockets coach Silas was interviewed by the media after the game.
When asked about the starting position of the center from Fernando, Shen Jing played with the second squad more often, Silas said: “This is good for both players, it is beneficial to both the first and the second team. Shen Jing needs to hold the ball to succeed. I can design more tactics for him so that he can have more chances to touch the ball in the second squad. When Fernando played with the first squad, he could take off, cover and let other teammates fall into the basket. Therefore, the current situation is suitable for both parties.”
“Our starting and substitute teams are playing well, and I have to consider more to make Shen Jing play better.” Silas continued.
Fernando played for 25 minutes, 3 shots, 3 shots, 1 free throw in 2, 7 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists.
Shen Jing played for 22 minutes, 5 out of 9 shots, 1 out of 3-point 2, 4 out of 4 free throws, contributing 15 points and 9 rebounds.
