Even the Rockets center can t be beaten! The Warriors wing rookie s upper limit on the offensive end is too low, right?

In a previous NBA playoff game, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Houston Rockets who played at home 103-89. After this game, the Warriors, who won the tiebreaker, locked the total score of the series at 4-3 and successfully advanced to the Western Conference semi-finals; while the Rockets were somewhat regrettably defeated the last game and stopped in the first round of the playoffs.

Although the Warriors won the game, the team's substitute wing star Moses Moody's performance was slightly worse. Moody's 10 minutes and 51 seconds of the game, 0 of 5 shots, 0 of 3 shots from outside the three-point line, failed to score 1 point in the game, contributed 3 rebounds, and had 1 foul, with a plus-negative value of +6. Although Moody has not played much, he has also received a lot of shooting opportunities, but his scoring ability and shooting ability have not been fully utilized. He has not provided enough support to the team on the offensive end. Moody is fully capable of taking on more tasks on the court, and Moody can often switch to the Rockets center on the offensive end. He should have had the opportunity to complete a lot of points through misalignment, but it is obvious that he has not succeeded in doing this. With Moody's ability, he should have performed more outstandingly, but unfortunately he did not show such strength at all, which is indeed a bit disappointing.

In the NBA regular season this season, Moody played a total of 74 games in 82 games, averaging 22.3 minutes per game, averaging 9.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.4 blocks, and 0.7 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. He shot 43.3%, three-point shooting percentage 37.4%, and free throw shooting percentage 79.7%. In the playoffs, Moody's average playing time in the first seven games reached 20.9 minutes, with averaging 9.6 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.4 blocks. He also had 0.3 turnovers and 1.3 fouls. His shooting percentage was 38.7%, his three-point shooting percentage was 35.3%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 87.5%.

Moody's performance during the playoffs was extremely disappointing. His offensive efficiency was a mess, and he became worse and worse as the series progressed. The Rockets also have very little recognition of Moody's scoring ability. After various defense replacements, Moody often faces Steven Adams or Alperen Sengun. Facing the opponent's two big inside players who are slow to move and poor athleticism, Moody did not show enough offensive ability and scoring ability to hold the ball, which also shows that Moody's scoring ability and his upper limit on the offensive end are indeed a little worse. Even the center can't be played, which can also show that Moody's personal ability is still not high enough, and his potential is also a little lower.
