Homegren played against the Grizzlies in the first round of the playoffs this year, playing 4 games, shooting 50 shots in total, hitting 22 goals, scoring 74 points and 31 rebounds!

Homegren averaged 18.5 points and 7.7 rebounds in the first round of the playoffs! 44% shooting percentage!

Homegren averaged 30.8 minutes per game against the Nuggets in the second round, scoring 14.1 points, 10.9 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1.9 blocks. The shooting percentage was 46.3%, the three-point shooting percentage was as low as 22.2%, and the free throw percentage was 70.4%.

Homgren can do better in the next game:

1. Improve the finishing ability! Homgren averaged 11.8 shots per game in the playoffs, hitting 5.4 goals, and shooting percentage was 45.4%. As a tall center with a height of 2.16 meters, this shooting percentage was still a bit lower, and it was normal to have to be above 50%!

2. Improve the three-point shooting ability! Homgren has averaged 4.8 three-pointers per game so far this year's playoffs, hitting 1.5 goals, and a three-point shooting percentage of 32.1%, which has declined from the regular season three-point shooting percentage. Homgren has 37.9% of his three-point shooting percentage this year. If he shoots more accurately, the Thunder will have better offensive space!

3. Keep your mind going! Homegren's strength is more than that. As a 23-year-old young player, he doesn't play many playoffs, and he is still very nervous! In front of Jokic, there is a newcomer! Jokic taught Homgren a vivid lesson! It is also beneficial for young people to experience these more often. They can know their problems and motivate themselves to grow better!

4. Strengthen the confrontation! Homegren is still too thin. He is at a disadvantage in defending a heavy center like Jokic! Jokic leaned against Homgren and squeezed Homgren away with force! Homgren is 2.16 meters tall, but he weighs only 88KG. Alexander is 1.98 meters tall, and he weighs 88KG. Alexander has already lost weight, but Homgren is even more exaggerated! Edwards is 1.93 meters tall and weighs 101KG. Edwards will definitely attack the Thunder's inside line against the Thunder. Edwards must dunk everything. Edwards has a strong impact. Homegren must be prepared! Too thin is also prone to injury in high-intensity confrontation. Homgren should think of ways to gain weight scientifically and reasonably to make himself stronger.

5. It is more reasonable to choose Homegren for shooting. Some of the shots of Homegren are not reasonable enough, and many of them are shots from outside the three-point line. It is true that he is a space-type insider, but the space-type insider also needs to judge the situation and play more flexiblely, and you don’t have to stay on the outside and shoot three-pointers all the time. He is faster, more flexible and younger than Jokic, and can break through Jokic with speed and footsteps. When playing against a star like Jokic, you can't just find ways to limit him on the defensive end, as it will be very passive and very difficult. Jokic who can be completely restricted is not Jokic. He must be mobilized on both offense and defense and consume his physical strength.

Jokic can attack? But defense is not something he is very good at. Jokic's defense is not at the top level. He is not moving fast on the defensive end. When Homgren faces him, he must also consume him on the offensive end. Jokic can score against your defense, so why can't you score against his defense? If Homgren can repeatedly hit Jokic on the offensive end, then Jokic will invest more energy on the defensive end, which will consume his physical energy and make him consume a lot of physical energy on both sides of the offense and defense. If Jokic fails to defend his opponent on the defensive end, his mentality will also change and become impatient, which will affect his performance on the offensive end. Both ends of offense and defense influence each other.

6. Accumulate playoff experience! This is not only to lay a solid foundation for the present, but also for the future! Homgren is only 23 years old this year and is still very young. This year he joined hands with Alexander to lead the Thunder to achieve the best results in the league. At the age of 23, he did many incredible things. In the playoffs, he helped the team play to the Western Conference Finals stage, and he also wanted to help the team go further. If Homegren can stay healthy, he and the Thunder will be frequent visitors in the playoffs for many years and a long time to come. The Thunder have top talents and a lot of talents. Homegren will continue to shine in the future, and will become stronger and better! The present is his, and the future is his. In a few years, his offense and defense skills will be polished more delicately, and he will become more mature, and his peak period will be very strong!
