Jalen Green's playoff debut highlighted his struggle under pressure, evident in his disappointing performance against the Golden State Warriors. Scoring only seven points in Game 1, Green felt overwhelmed but surged back with a 38-point game in the second. However, as the Rockets face elimination, concerns remain about their need for a consistent offensive leader. Despite their promising roster, including Alperen Sengun and Amen Thompson, the Rockets seem one step short of a championship-caliber unit. General Manager Rafael Stone emphasizes patience in development, eyeing future trades while remaining committed to their young talent.
