Three-pointers + Chinese shots are both top 3 in the league! Congratulations to the Rockets, 8 for 1 and finally won the super attacker, Uduka chose the right person

In fact, the Houston Rockets did not have that kind of damaging deal this summer. Although Jaylen Green and Dillon Brooks were packaged and sent to the Suns for Durant, in fact, Dillon Brooks' defense was a bit overstatement. His defense was actually not the best-in-class level in the league, but his posture was just a bluff. The three-point shooting percentage is indeed Dillon's strength, but it is not stable enough. Finney Smith, who was signed by the Rockets this summer, is half cheaper than Dillon Brooks, but his defensive ability is not inferior to Dillon, and Finney Smith's three-point shooting percentage is more than 40%, which is far better than Dillon Brooks. The Rockets replaced Dillon Brooks with Finney Smith, which can be said to be their forward defense and three-point ability have steadily improved. Although Jaylen Green has a certain talent, he has not realized it in four years and has become the Rockets' biggest drag on the Rockets in the playoffs. Therefore, it is reasonable for Manager Stone to trade him for Durant. The Rockets finally won the super attacker Durant through eight to one trade. So what exactly is Durant worth chasing for? In fact, the Rockets gave out 5 second round picks and one first round pick, plus two starters, Jaylen Green and Dillon, for Durant, which did not seriously hurt the Rockets' vitality. The core of the Rockets are Shin Kyung, Van Vreet, Amen Thompson and Smith Jr. None of these four players were sent away, and the Rockets even retained substitute guard Shepard. It can be said that the Rockets did make a profit in this deal, and the 36-year-old Durant is one of the best scorers in the league. He was once the MVP and scoring champion in the league. His three-point shooting and mid-range shooting are both top-level levels in the league.

First look at mid-range shooting. According to the latest game "NBA 2K26", in terms of mid-range shooting ability, the Nuggets Jokic ranked first, reaching 98; the Mavericks Irving ranked 98, tied for Jokic; while the Rockets Durant ranked third, his mid-range shooting ability reached 97. In fact, many people think that Durant's central shot is underestimated, at least he should be on par with Jokic and Irving. After all, Durant's central shot is quite stable and efficient. In addition, Curry reached 99 in three-point shooting ability in this game, while Durant of the Rockets' three-point shooting ability reached 91, ranking second in the league.

So, in the eyes of this game, Durant is the second player in the league with three-point ability, and his central shot ability is the third in the league. So, the Rockets' eight-for-one deal is really worth it. It only took a few chips to exchange for the best shooting player in the league. After all, Durant's three-point ability and mid-range shooting ability should be one of the best in the league. What the Rockets lacked last season was stable three-pointers and accurate mid-range shooting.

Now that the Rockets have obtained Durant, their biggest problem has been solved. With the Rockets' tough defense and stable team basketball, next season, Durant's personal abilities, especially his scoring ability, the Rockets can really compete for the championship. After all, Durant was the one whom Uduka asked Stone to exchange for it. It seems that Uduka really chose the right person.
