Average of 26+6+4! Rockets don t give me privileges, Durant makes a request, and Uduka makes clear
4:28pm, 13 September 2025【Basketball】
The new NBA season is about to begin, and next month is the preseason. Rockets fans will be looking forward to it because they get Durant. The character who did not make a final decision at the critical moment last season, now has Adu's death scythe, and the Rockets' offense and defense have been comprehensively improved. Mainly after Uduka joined, the Rockets were a team that relied on defense. The idea is that I can't attack, and you don't want to attack, so you feel that the Rockets are constipated in attacking. Of course, there is another point that the Rockets are looking forward to Jaylen Green's talent to realize his talent, and he stays there.
In the end, Green was sent away for Durant, which was also a tactical stop loss for the Rockets. Four of the Rockets' five-man team have been decided in the new season. Rockets general manager Stone said in an interview today that he is not sure who will arrange for Durant, Shin Kyung, Amen and Van Jordan to fill the starter. The current number three-position favorite is Smith, who is the most likely, but it is not ruled out that the Rockets let the electric fan go to the small forward position. There is still some time to arrange the specific arrangements, and see the status of the training camp.
In terms of team tactics, the Rockets will not focus on Durant, because Durant himself does not want the team to rely too much on him. Uduka was interviewed by media reporters at an event this week, and he was asked how the Rockets use Durant in the new season? Uduka said clearly that the Rockets' core playing style will not change, and it is still egalitarian. Durant will choose to integrate into the Rockets system rather than the Rockets. Durant also told Uduka that he hopes everything will be the same, that he will only take action at critical moments, and that other times will not delay the development of young people.
Uduka said: "Durant has always told me that the team should not rely too much on him. He wants to integrate himself into the Rockets, not us into him. So changing the tactics around Durant, and he thinks this is not OK. Durant hopes that the young people will be themselves and continue to grow in the areas they are good at. Durant hopes that the team will continue the system of last season, and he will take action when he needs him. It is obvious that Durant can adapt to any team on the offensive end. This is also my new season plan. Durant has the final ability we need at critical moments, and he is very selfless and has a high ball quotient."
In fact, Durant really doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes, in the Thunder, at the Nets, at the end of the Suns. The teams are all deliberately playing Durant's system, but in the end they are not satisfactory. The main thing is Durant's style of playing is the ending hand, not the big core with the ball. Durant won two championships only when he joined the Warriors. The ultimate reason is that Durant brings the Warriors the ability to harvest at critical moments. Normally, the Warriors are still Kerr's pass and cut system. Curry keeps running, chasing his dreams to deal cards, Durant does his best on the defensive end, and adds some support to the end of the offensive end.
Joining the Rockets and joining the Warriors has the same effect. Uduka's tactics will still be the 15 pick-and-roll starting style of Van Jordan and Shin Kyung. Moreover, Shin Kyung's performance in the European Championship was quite amazing, and he evolved again. The Rockets' 15 pick-and-roll intensity in the new season is much stronger than last season. In fact, even without Durant joining, the Rockets' strength in the new season is stronger than last season. After all, young people Shin Kyung and Amen are still growing. Now that Durant has joined, young people continue to grow, the Rockets' combat power is not fixed, but will improve with time.
Durant played 62 regular season games for the Suns last season, averaging 36.5 minutes per game, scoring 26.6 points, 6 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.2 blocks, of which the shooting percentage was 52.7%, and the three-point shooting percentage was a terrifying 43.0%. It is obvious that both Durant and the Rockets know their pros and cons. Many people say that Durant has dismantled the Nets and Suns, and the Rockets are also dangerous, which is pure nonsense. Durant can't dismantle the Rockets at all, and Durant doesn't become the boss. And if you don’t rely on him in regular time, you can build your own system and let Durant break the ice when scores are needed at critical moments. This is what can best exert Durant’s power. You can say that Durant is a powerful weapon, but you have to know how to use it. At least the Rockets know how to make Durant's magic weapon fully utilize.
