Team Note: Shin Kyung and Amen are both practicing shooting hard, the former has been working hard to expand the range

July 26th TA's Rockets reporter Kelly Iko talked about Shin Kyung and Amen Thompson when answering a fan's question this week.

Fans: How will the Rockets solve the problem of two key starters (Shin Kyung and Amen Thompson) not having any outside shots? Since the opponent can always emptie these two people and let the extra defenders be placed in the penalty area, the Rockets' offense is always trapped in the quagmire due to the overcrowding of the penalty area.

Iko: "It all starts with Shin Kyung. Judging from the news from all aspects, the Turkish insider has been working hard to expand the range and adapt himself to the three-point shooting, which will definitely open up more offensive space for the team in the half-field position attack. Correspondingly, Amen Thompson has also been seen doing a lot of training to adjust his shooting. The progress of the two of them in shooting is naturally the most direct solution. But even if this cannot be achieved immediately (yes, I know I said that Tate's shooting has improved but was slapped in the face), the Rockets can still create good things for these non-shot players through other methods. Good offensive opportunity. The offensive space around Shin Kyung and Amen Thompson is important, but the position of both of them is equally important. "

" The Rockets saw their biggest shortcoming (the lack of a key scorer who can be a historically-level space point) and added a strong, reliable 3D type tall wing. While doubling their bet on the 'two towers' lineup that made them obsessed with, they retained most of the core players, and the team became much stronger. After winning 52 games last season, if they could stay healthy, a 56-60 win in the season was not an out of reach." Iko continued.
