Shin Kyung didn't have enough talent and didn't have enough defense
On the morning of February 12, Beijing time, Holiday was 0The three-second free throw win over the Knicks was also a mistake by the Rockets before the end of the game. In this game, Shen Jing got 18, 6 assists, 3 rebounds, 3 turnovers, 5 of which were 1+1, and almost became the culprit of the team. He missed a couple of balls near the basket and let the opposition tie. But the problem is not this, it is his defense!
His average playing time is 325 minutes, get 212 points, 92 rebounds, 55 assists, 54% shooting, 28% 3-pointers, 71% free throws. That may seem like a good number, but in fact, his performance on the defensive end is terrible. Statistically, Shin Kyung's three balls within 2 meters of the basket have a shooting percentage of October: 529% (three games) eleven months: 576%Twelve months: 55% (14 games)January: 62% (17 games)February to date: 77.4% (4 games). Of the 29 centre-backs in the league who average at least six goals per game, he has scored just 23 of them.
Shin Kyung is talented in attack, but he is not good at mid-to-long-range shooting, and his strength lies in his footwork and his passing. Defensively, his weaknesses are also there. In particular, his arm length is not long enough to block the opposition's attack, and he is not moving fast enough on the court to provide adequate protection for his players. In this case, there is not enough motivation to defend, and it will be a great disaster. Similar to former Rockets player Wood, his most prominent trait is that he focuses on himself rather than on defense. If Shen Jing doesn't change anything, then he can only become an improved version of Wood.
