One transaction and one signing contract is too timely! The Rockets 5 shooters on the outside are formed, and the two inside are underestimated

Last season, the Rockets were a team with extremely strong inside scoring ability. Due to Shin Kyung's existence, the Rockets' low-post scoring in the inside is not a problem. After all, Shin Kyung is one of the best low-post scoring players in the NBA. Last season, Shin Kyung of the Rockets averaged 19 points per game, and this data rose directly to 21 points in the playoffs, and Shin Kyung is also an excellent rebounder and passer, so there is no need to mention this.

In this year's European Championship, Shin Kyung also helped the Turkish team reach the final, and their final opponent will be the German team. Shin Kyung averaged 21 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists per game in the European Championship. More importantly, Shin Kyung, who has always not made a high three-point shooting percentage, has averaged 3-point shooting percentage to 35% in eight games in the European Championships.

Although the Rockets directly cut Landae, who shot 42% of three-point shooting percentage last season, the Rockets now have two very stable three-point shooting abilities in the interior, Smith Jr. and Shin Kyung. In that case, the Rockets' three-point shooting ability in the interior will be much better than last season. After all, Shin Jing has developed his three-point shooting ability, and he will no longer have any shortcomings in the offensive end.

Although regular season tests still need to be tested, Shin Kyung did make more three-pointers and hit a higher percentage in the European Championship, especially in the group match against Serbian super center Jokic, Shin Kyung made 4 of 7 three-pointers, with a shooting percentage of more than 50%. It can be seen from this that Shin Kyung is not not able to shoot three-pointers, but in the Rockets last season, he was asked to score in the inside instead of pulling to the outside to shoot three-pointers.

Now, the Rockets' inside double-battery Smith and Shin Kyung are obviously underestimated. If they were given more phones, the two of them would use their three-point shots to get more points. The Rockets won Durant with a trade this summer and signed a free agent to win Finney Smith.

You should know that Durant's three-point shooting percentage last season was as high as 42%, and Finney Smith's three-point shooting percentage was as high as 41%. In addition, in the Rockets' playoffs, Van Vreett, who shot more than 40% of the three-point shooting percentage, Aaron Holiday, who shot nearly 40% of the regular season three-point shooting percentage, and Shepard, the Rockets' young shooter, has taken shape. With five outside shooters, plus Smith Jr. and Shin Kyung in the inside, the Rockets will jump from a three-pointer underdog to one of the teams with the best three-point shooting next season.

Trading Durant and signing Finney Smith this summer was too timely. Manager Stone also knew where the Rockets were shortcuts, so when signing, they would make up for where they were weak. Now the Rockets have excellent shooters both inside and outside. As long as the Rockets can play the same level of defense last season, they will really have a chance to make a big splash next season.
