I m a Rockets manager and I ll send myself away

Jaylen Green today posted a farewell letter to all Rockets fans on the well-known star article release platform "Star Stand". He also reposted this article and put down the harsh words. When I scored 30 points on you next season, I also remember the wonderful times we used to be."

In fact, he felt a little emotional. Jaylen Green actually rarely posted things. Basically, social media is on the INS. The last time he posted was on the eve of the preseason of the 23-24 season, he posted "Come on the Rockets! "A goodbye after two years. This article is written in a very touching way, and the following is a translation.

"A Few Words From the Heart for H-Town"

Do you know what I like most about Houston? People in this city are very enterprising. Outsiders may not understand. They may think Houston is slow or has a very southern local character. But if you really live here, you will understand that it brings together people from all over the world, who are all trying to get their own, which is why this place has such amazing creativity. Food, music, how people do things… Houston is one of the most underrated cities in the United States, man.

I don't even want to promote it too much because we have to keep our own characteristics, do you know what I mean? I really like being part of the Rockets. I can't believe I'm talking about Houston in the past. But that's the way the league survives.

Listen, no one likes to be traded. But I can honestly say, I understand, man. It's a business, but if I'm sitting in the management position, I might do that deal. I think it's a better situation for both sides, I'm just happy to be able to play with Booker and create the kind of winning culture we've found in Houston.

What do people always say at this time? Don't cry because it's over? Do you smile because it's happening? Man, I'm smiling. I only have love for the Rockets. I'm sorry to try to beat you now, but every time I see you, it's full of love. I mean, I'm really growing up here. Some guys say that when they're traded, but I'm really here at 19, I'm still eating rainbow candy before the game, and now I'm a father when I leave here. Guys, this time is amazing.

When I'm here, everyone is talking about "rebuilding."

" Rebuilding, rebuilding, rebuilding. ”

"Oh, I don't know. It may take four or five years, man. It can only come day by day. ”

I think we are too young to know what to do. Maybe most teams will relax in the third quarter of the regular season in February, thinking about where to go after the game. Man, we play every round as life or death. Even if we lose, we are very entertaining. Our philosophy is, “Hey, we are young and athletic.” So let's actively defend. ”

We are running in every stadium in the league. We are like electric shock. You always know Houston will play some defense. Not a flat-trip defense, but Houston-style defense, man.

Veterans from other teams will look at us and say, “Hey, today is Tuesday (usually the lowest entry rate for fans on Tuesday), man. Calm down. Shouldn't you try to win a draft pick? ”

But we are not trying to relax. We are not trying to draft. We are trying to win now.

My rookie season, we won 20 games. Two…10 games, man. Within three years, our Toyota Center was packed with fans who watched the home game of the playoffs. I will always be proud of it. It’s culture to turn things around like this. We have a young core roster, but there are veterans like Fred VanVleet – they are the ones who really won in this league – pointing us in the direction.

I will never forget… This is the first time I heard this from a veteran… One night I felt hot. I think I made three shots in a row at the start and the next time I attacked, I passed the ball. As a young man, you almost feel guilty, you know? “I think I have to pass now.” ”

"Yo, did you pass the ball just now? Send again, brother. We let you control it until you lose it. ”

We are a very close team. So it’s really hard to say goodbye because I can just send out the whole damn roster. Everyone is someone who is close to me—the one who keeps in touch outside of basketball. Fred, Amen, Tari, Jabarri, York, Steven Adams, Jessian Tate—everyone. Even our coaching staff and trainers—Royle Ivey, JB, Willy—you all know it’s not just basketball. How much conversation do we have about life? Thank you for helping me sort out my thoughts. Not just as a basketball player, but as a young father and A man.

Of course, and my Turkish brother, Shin Kyung. When we first came here, I didn't know what you were saying halfway through. We taught you to swear in English, brother. Remember? You'll listen to those Turkish raps, but I just can't get excited. Sorry, brother. You have to learn to change styles. Hahaha. That's my brother. I didn't know that Europeans can be so interesting! I thought you were all very cold. But no, Alpi was so cool.

With Shin Kyung and Amen, Rockets fans have a lot to look forward to in the next few years. I can tell you, because I've seen it all in person ——Amen will not only become great. Amen will become very crazy.

Ultimately, the most powerful proof I can say about my time here is that on the day I was traded, I spent the whole day on the phone. I know what this league looks like. Some teams have not that close relationship. Some people, after they are traded, will only call one or two buddies in the team and then it's over. And I, I'm calling people on the entire list. I started playing in the morning and didn't say my last goodbye until dinner time, brother.

Thank God, at least Dillon is going to Phoenix with me. I can't wait to see Dillon after being traded. He will make chaos there, brother.

Do you know what's interesting? The first person I called after I got the message was my mom because of course. You have to call your mom. If I had a second of sad for myself, it would have disappeared the moment she answered the phone. Many moms work night shifts to support their families, man. Salute to all moms. But my mom's night shift as a correctional officer would be harder than she thought, brother. Her class was so hard. But when I was growing up, she would still go home in the morning and drive me to Auckland for three hours to play basketball. She used to sleep in the car during the race intervals.

(Hey, mom, remember I used to feel nervous in the car before every game? It was so nervous! By the way, I know there are people in the league that do this.)

Mom replied to me "If you're nervous, it means you're ready!" Take a ride, play basketball, handle business. This is our life. Nothing will change now. I have a team in Phoenix and they want me to be myself. I can play alongside one of the best players in the league like Booker. This is another opportunity to build a winning culture. Once again, there is an opportunity to show people how deep my love for the sport is. It is also another chance to shut up you petty sluts.

So I'll miss Houston and all my brothers there, but I'm so happy, man. I can make a living by playing basketball. How could I have a bad day? Every day I play is a wonderful day. Houston, thank you for your love. Really, thank you. If I score 30 points next season to beat you, please remember the wonderful time!

Love you, Jaylen
