Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason reacts after a 3-point shot in front of the Toronto Raptors bench during the second half of a preseason NBA basketball game Friday, Oct. 7, 2022, in Houston. Rockets rookie forward Tari Eason wanted to make the shot. He tried to make it. He missed badly.Eason had been forced to put up a 3-pointer to beat the shot clock and it was not too bad a look considering he only had time to catch and fire away.
, to move to 2-0 in the preseason. “He missed the 3 and got the ball right back and laid it back up. Big momentum for us. I was on him early because he looks like he gets in a daze, but he’s really focused. He didn’t miss free throws. He’s really been working on his shooting. Can play multiple positions.OK, to be the young, Pistons-era Rodman, Eason would have a long way to go to be that kind of defender and nuisance.
That was all obvious, with Eason looking very much as he did in the summer league, when he looked very much as he did off the bench at LSU. Preseason games do not prove much, but it seems safe to assume that the energy will not change.That leads to what could be a significant change in the Rockets. They were terrible in transition defense. Much of that was from being so turnover prone. But it also was because teams would beat them down the floor.
