Actor Yuan Hong: If the Rockets aim to win the championship, Shepard s offensive ability as a point guard is obviously not enough

October 22nd, in the NBA regular season opener, the Rockets lost to the Thunder 124-125 in double overtime.

Actor Yuan Hong commented: "In the first game of the new season, thank you to the Thunder Rockets for their overtime effort. Alexander is still great. If the Rockets' goal this season is to win the championship, Shepard's current performance at the point guard position, his ability to control and sort out the offense is obviously not enough. Shen Jing shot one-fifth of his three-pointers in one game last season. He is announcing to the entire basketball world on behalf of the big men that three-pointers will be a basic skill for outstanding insiders in the future. In fact, compared to small guards, the frequency of big men is indeed relatively slow, and a few of them have too big hands. But they have better absolute strength and stability, less shooting interference, and even a 2cm shorter distance from the frame... So, is it possible that in the near future we will see the overall three-point production and shooting rate of the insiders increase, or even be the same as that of the outsiders? "

In this game, Shepard came off the bench. His performance obviously could not match the intensity of the game. He made no achievements in passing and controlling, and was passed by many times on defense.

In the end, Shepard played 28 minutes, scoring 9 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, 1 block and 2 turnovers on 3 of 11 shots. He had a plus-minus value of 0.
