Average of 21+12+5! Shen Jing changed to a new position? Rockets Stone shows up, and the Twin Towers tactics are supported again

One of the most classic tactics of the Rockets last season was the double tower tactics. Uduka accidentally sent two centers, Alperen Shinkyung and veteran Adams, in a certain game. I thought such a double tower partner would lose space in the inside and slow down the overall speed of the Rockets. After all, the Rockets are a team that builds a foothold with powerful fast offensive and defensive transformation. They need more speed, especially speed guards such as Jaylen Green and Amen Thompson.

However, the combination of the two towers allowed the Rockets to win more games. When the two towers played, the Rockets' speed did not drop significantly. Instead, the defense and offensive capabilities of the inside were improved to a higher level. The Rockets had two centers to fight, and it was almost impossible for the inside opponents to attack the basket and play against the Rockets' inside one-on-one single.

Adams is the best defensive center in the league, and Shin Kyung's defense is also underestimated. If Shin Kyung's defense ability is not good in the previous three seasons, then Shin Kyung's defense has been improving last season, especially after the All-Stars. In the playoffs, the Rockets' double towers have caused the Warriors to suffer more. If it weren't for insufficient firepower on the outside, the Rockets might be able to easily eliminate the Warriors and advance to the second round. Although the Rockets were eliminated, the double tower tactics have been recognized.

The Rockets' double tower tactics were very successful last season. At that time, Adams played center, while Shin Kyung returned to the power forward position, which may be more suitable for him. Now Rockets general manager Raphael Stone also talked about Shin Kyung when he participated in the show this week. He said that the team had great success when the Rockets asked Shin Kyung to be the power forward last season.

Because at that time, everyone knew that Shin Kyung faced a player in the No. 4 position was one number smaller than the center position, and Shin Kyung's size was actually not big. He did not have strong enough strength and did not have first-class height. Therefore, Shin Kyung had comprehensive skills and outstanding low-post skills. If he was allowed to play as the power forward and cooperate with Adams, he would be able to better play Shin Kyung's skills and flexible skills.

General Manager Stone can talk about Shin Kyung being more suitable in the No. 4 position in this show, so we have reason to believe that he supports the Rockets' continued use of the double tower lineup next season, and the Rockets signed Capela in the offseason this year to serve the double towers. After all, Adams' attendance rate was actually not high last season. Once he was injured or was off-stop, Capela would be the center and let Shin Kyung play power forward. The two centers cooperated together, and the double tower effect did not seem to be inferior to the double tower combination of Shin Kyung and Adams.

Shen Jing averaged 21 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists in the playoffs last season. If he could change to a new position power forward, then Shin Jing's performance might be better. Now that Rockets general manager Stone shows up, this proves that the Twin Towers tactics have received support from the Rockets management.

The Rockets can line up different double towers next season, including the old double towers of Shin Kyung and Adams, as well as the new double towers of Adams and Capela's defensiveness. Even the combination of Shin Kyung and Capela should be very suitable. Coach Uduka may use double tower tactics more next season to achieve control of the inside.
