18 three-pointers in 3 games, with nearly 70% shooting percentage! The Rockets main control becomes the main attack, and the offensive data is greatly improved

In the last three playoff matches, while Jaylen Green was frantically double-teamed by the Warriors, another Rockets defender Van Vreet stood up at the right time. It can be said that without Van Vreet's performance of 80 points in the last three games, it would be difficult for the Rockets to pass the Warriors' level. Although the Rockets have not eliminated their opponents now, it is not easy for the Rockets to chase the total score from 1:3 to the current 3:3.

Van Villet naturally became the main offensive point of the Rockets. His performance in the first three games of the playoffs was very average and even a bit disappointing, but in the last three games, Van Vreet's performance has fully reached the level of the playoff MVP level. In three games, he scored more than 25 points in each game. In the previous game, he even scored 29 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists alone, leading the Rockets to defeat his opponent away, won the most critical victory, and saved another match point.

For Van Vreet, everyone's impression is that he is a point guard who mainly passes and is not particularly good at scoring. After all, in the regular season this season, Van Vreet's average score has dropped to 14 points. Although Van Vreett is average in the regular season, in the playoffs, especially in the last three games, he has transformed from a main point guard into the Rockets' main offensive point and number one scorer.

We can see from the data that Van Vreet has made a total of 18 three-pointers in the last three games, making 18 of 27 three-pointers, and his three-point shooting percentage is close to 67%. Such performance also made his average three-point shooting percentage average in the playoffs reach 43%. It is no exaggeration to say that Van Vrett's three-pointer in the regular season is quite inaccurate, but in the playoffs, he suddenly transformed into the Rockets' No. 1 shooter and the most powerful attack point. Even scorers like Jaylen Green are willing to take the lead.

So, Van Vreet quickly transformed in the playoffs, from the main point guard of the Rockets to the main attacker of the Rockets. This kind of transformation was forced to do so. After all, Jaylen Green was strictly guarded. If Van Vritte did not stand up and attack by himself, the Rockets would have been eliminated long ago. This is the importance of Van Vritte: when organizing offense, he is just the third or fourth offensive choice of the Rockets; and now with several young players of the Rockets being strictly guarded, Van Vritte stood up and used his own shooting, especially three-point shooting, to help the Rockets widen the gap. In the next game, that is, the tiebreak battle between the two teams, the Rockets' Van Vreet may be strictly guarded by the opponent. However, once VanVleet encounters key prevention and double-teaming, other Rockets shooters, such as Smith Jr., Jaylen Green, Aaron Holiday, and Dillon Brooks, will also get more opportunities. This is the importance of Van Vritte. When he is not strictly guarded, he can become the main offensive point of the Rockets; once he encounters double-teaming, he can immediately pass the ball to his teammates and let his teammates score and help the team win.

Moreover, Van Vreet's offensive data such as average score and three-point shooting percentage have also improved significantly compared to the regular season. This kind of player who can immediately burst into form in a critical game like the playoffs is naturally the root cause of the Rockets' strength.
