As we all know, in a big deal this offseason, the Rockets sent Jaylen Green and Dillon Brooks, and exchanged Kevin Durant from the Suns. At this point, the Rockets have officially entered the Durant era.

In this deal, the Rockets sent Jaylen Green away was a pity that many fans felt. It’s not that I’m reluctant to give up Green, but that it’s a pity that the Rockets have trained the second place in the New Year for four or five years, and finally ended up being given up. Green was once considered the cornerstone of the Rockets' team building. He and Shin Kyung's Gemini were once the hope for the Rockets' rise.

Now, Green has been sent away, and Shin Kyung is the well-deserved cornerstone of the Rockets' fleet. He and Amen Thompson represent the future of the Rockets. After Durant retires, Shin Kyung and Amen will shoulder the heavy responsibility of carrying the Rockets forward.

If you want to talk about Shin Kyung, the player, has made great progress in recent years. Some people think that he plays softly, but after watching his game carefully, you will find that Shin Kyung is not as slow as many white centers, and Shin Kyung's skills and physical conditions are still good.

Recently, Shin Kyung is playing the national team for the Turkish men's basketball team. Judging from the performance of the game, Shin Kyung has made significant progress and he has become better than last season.

A warm-up match ended today, Türkiye defeated Montenegro 96-85.

Turkey's leading star, Rockets center Shin Kyung performed well in this game. He made 10 of 16 shots in the game, 6 of 9 free throws, scored 26 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 steals and 1 block, with a plus-minus value +25, leading the team to win. In Montenegro, Bulls center Vucevic performed poorly, scoring only 9 points, 1 rebound and 4 assists.

plus today's game, Shin Kyung has scored 25+ in three consecutive games, and has scored 25 points against Lithuania and Germany before.

In such a direct dialogue, the new generation of center Shin Kyung beat up the old generation of center Vucevic, symbolizing the alternation between the old and the new, and also showing that Shin Kyung has very good strength.

Rockets fans must be relieved and full of expectations when they see Shin Kyung's performance. Shin Kyung had entered the All-Star lineup last season, and he was only a few votes away from the three teams of the best team, which can be said to be a significant improvement. This summer, Shen Jing evolved again, and the little fire dragon is moving step by step towards the fire dragon.

Shen Jing is only 23 years old, he is already so outstanding and is still making progress. If it is normal, Shen Jing is entering his peak period at around 27 years old, which is so terrible.

In the national team game, Shin Kyung often has many defender-style ball breakthroughs, which makes people dazzled and dazzled. In the NBA, Shin Kyung may not have many such opportunities, but in the national team, Shin Kyung is the well-deserved core of the team, and he can fully demonstrate his technical characteristics.

Shin Kyung had many surprising rounds in the game. In the first half, there was a 45-degree melon-like test step on the left side and a mid-range jump shot. In the second half, there was a dunk from the outside of the three-point line to the basket, and a dunk from the left bottom line about one step away from the three-point line, turning around and smearing into the basket. These all showed his excellent mobility.

The Rockets are full of expectations in the new season. We want to congratulate Durant on coming to a talented team. Since leaving the Thunder, Durant has never worked with a powerful center.

Now, he has a partner like Shin Kyung, as well as teammates like Jabbarry Smith, Amen Thompson, Ethan, Adams, and Van Villet. Durant and his Rockets, it's time to make some noise.
