This season, the Houston Rockets encountered a headache in the NBA game -a low three -point hit rate.Especially in 7 to 8 games, the performance of the Rockets in the outer rays can be described as bleak.In the game of the Detroit Pistons, the Rockets three -point hit rate was as low as 20.6%. The Rockets could still win the ball. It was really a bit strange.
Looking back at last season, the Rockets three-point hit rate is already the countdown in the league, which is no longer a secret.Faced with this short board, the management and coaching team of the Rockets made targeted reinforcement during the offseason.They took off the potential shooter Xiepade (No. 3), introduced the experienced Macvi, and renewed the three-pointer of Alon Hollerdi with a three-pointer of 38%last season.
Whats even more noticeable is that the Rockets also obtained another shooter AJ-Griffin through the transaction.These players are not superstars, but you have to talk about the three -pointer shooting ability, and these players are indeed a good player in the outside.
However, the reality gave the Rockets a loud slap.These shooters who were highly hoped during the offseason did not help the Rockets out of the three -pointer.After the short appearance of the Xialian, Griffin was bought out by the Rockets for family reasons.Although Xie Zade has a good potential, there is little appearance time this season. His talent and talent seem to be buried on the bench.
Holes three -pointer last season made peoples eyes shine, but this season he has been hidden, and he has no chance of performance.And Mcwhel, this experienced shooter, is difficult to get a stable appearance in the Rockets.
The encounters of these shooters make people cant help but ask: What happened to the Rockets?Why are these players who have been carefully selected during the offseason, but they cant play their due role in the game?The answers to the question may not be complicated, but they point to the Rockets employment strategies and management concepts.
As the head coach of the Rockets, Udaka undoubtedly needs to bear certain responsibilities.His employment strategy is too conservative. Among the players he likes to use (Vanfrut, Jay Jay Green, and Shen Jing), there are basically no three -pointers and accurate shooters.In the game, we can often see the Rockets outside shots repeatedly hit the iron, but Udaka seems to be indifferent to this, and has not adjusted the lineup and tactics in time.This stubborn employment method not only makes the Rockets outer firepower unable to effectively improve, but also makes the Rockets records not so good.
Of course, it is obviously unfair to blame Uda completely on Uda.The Rockets three -point hit rate problem can not be solved overnight.Players need to practice three points, and the tactics of the coaching team seem to have certain problems.But there is no need to put a number of shooters. Instead, they are struggling in the game.Especially when I saw the three -point weakness, I still needed to be responsible for it.
