The competition in the Western Conference is really fierce, and the Houston Rockets now have a 15-15 record, just 50% of the winning rate, but the Rockets are only 10th in the West, becoming the play-off regional goalkeeper. In tenth place in the Eastern Conference is the Bulls, who have a win percentage of just 441%。If the Rockets' record win percentage is placed in the Eastern Conference, they can rank in the top eight in the East. This also reaffirms the point that there are many strong teams in the West, and the competition for the playoffs is indeed more stressful than in the East. 37+11！30+16！From the bench to the team leader, gold will always shine, and the Rockets really made the right bet.
Now that the Timberwolves and Thunder have the best record in the Western Conference, the Rockets still have a long way to go if they want to reach the Thunder's dark horse strength. Alexander, the star of the Thunder, is already the best star in the team, and Holmgren and Jalen Williams have grown rapidly, which has made the Thunder super rising. If the Rockets want to learn from the rise of the Thunder, they must learn how young players can learn to keep their heads up and accumulate a lot of money. What Rockets head coach Udoka is grasping now is to start with the most basic defense, start from the details, little by little, and slowly change the offensive and defensive ecosystem of the entire team. The Rockets have a defensive efficiency of 111 this season4 (6th in the league) and 113 offensive efficiency6 (19th in the Union).
The best young player for the Houston Rockets this season is Shin Jing, Jalen Green has not been consistent enough this season, the offense is good and bad, and the defensive habits are too poor, and Udoka has abandoned Jalen Green many times in the last quarter. Shin Kyung is averaging 21 per game this season1 point +92 rebounds + 51 assist +10 steals +08 blocks and 54 percent from the field0%, 32% three-point shooting, 72% free throws (Shen Jing's three-point shooting and free throws still have a lot of room for improvement). The list of contribution points of the competition released by the American media, Shen Jing 160, ranked 12th in the league, this data fully illustrates Shen Jing's important contribution to the game.
NBA statistics show that Rockets center Shen Jing has contributed an average of 28 per game in the last five games5 points +108 rebounds +48 assists +16 steals +10 blocks and 58 shots6%, true hit rate 662%。Shen Jing's recent form is really hot, in the game between the Rockets and the Pelicans, Shen Jing efficiently cut 37 points + 11 rebounds + 6 assists + 1 steal + 2 blocks. The Rockets and the Pacers played against each other, and Shin Jing shot 12 of 20 and scored 30 points + 16 rebounds + 5 assists + 4 steals + 1 block. The Rockets and the 76ers battled, and Shin Jing made 12 of 16 shots and scored 28 points + 7 rebounds + 8 assists + 1 steal + 1 block. 76ers head coach Nas bluntly said that Shin Kyung has now reached the All-Star level, and he will become stronger in the future.
Shin Kyung is the No. 16 pick in 2021, and he played as a substitute in the first season of his career, but even if he plays as a substitute, this still can't stop him from bursting with talent. This season, with the help of Udoka, Shin Kyung has played the stats and strength of the team leader, and he has made great contributions on both offensive and defensive ends. Many fans say that Shen Jing's development prospects are obviously better than Jalen Green's. Although Jalen Green is a top pick, his defense is not good and he is often prone to being a colander, which is a headache for Udoka. If Jalen Green misses his shot, then he's ***
The Rockets' management and coaching staff are betting on Shin Kyung, and it's the right bet that he has gone from the bench to the team's boss and has the potential to become a core cornerstone star. At the beginning, the Rockets used two first-round picks to exchange for Shin Jing, which is Stone's unique vision. Jabari Smith and Tari Eason are both young players who started out defensively and both shined under Udoka, and only by defending well can he be recognized by Udoka. Whitmore hadn't been given a chance before because Udoka didn't think he was the best defensively. I hope that these young players of the Rockets will continue to improve and grow quickly.
