Odom was a blessing in disguise and won back Kardashian's heart, but it also made the fans who watched the excitement begin to feel sorry for Harden. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Didn't you say a good two-house amphibious? Why did you suddenly change your hexagram?

The bewilderment on Harden's face with a capital letter made many fans feel distressed.

But the plot has made new progress.

On November 8, some media broke the news -

After Odom was critically ill and hospitalized, he was rescued. After more than 3 weeks of recuperation, Odom was finally able to walk again.

This is undoubtedly good news for those who care about Odom.

However, as Odom's situation improves day by day, his relationship with his wife Kardashian begins to deteriorate.

As we all know, after Odom's accident, Kardashian's performance was remarkable, she rushed to the hospital as soon as possible, and basically stayed with Odom's bedside after that, especially when Odom's condition was at its most critical, Kardashian almost never left the hospital until Odom successfully woke up.

Later, the two also revoked their previous divorce application and kept the marriage for the time being.

But recently, Odom is unhappy that the Kardashians are using his incident as news, and he is also very dissatisfied with Kardashian's relationship with Rockets star Harden.

What annoys Odom even more is that during his hospitalization, Kardashian didn't really break up with Harden, but still kept in touch and is still dating.

Finding himself covered in greenery, Odom was undoubtedly furious.

Odom's side Kardashian was dissatisfied, and Kardashian also expressed her disappointment in Odom, and she felt that Odom was too ungrateful.

Now Harden should be happy again, Odom himself died, and gave his wife away again.

The evolution of the complex relationship between these three men has begun a new chapter. What the future will become, outsiders do not know.

But as an NBA fan, or a Rockets fan, I can intuitively see that Harden's performance so far this season is much worse than last season.

Such a gap, judging from the data, is not obvious.

With his absolute core position, Harden's average data per game is guaranteed, and even if he loses the game, his data is beautiful. But just because Harden's stats are good doesn't mean the team is sure to win. Although the average points per game have increased further, the number of turnovers has also increased, and the shooting percentage has also dropped sharply. Many people think that Harden is addicted to Kardashian's plump breasts and fat buttocks, and he can't extricate himself.

Because in this summer's offseason, the triangular relationship between Harden, Kardashian, and Odom has already spread all over the United States, and people naturally blame Harden's poor condition.

At present, the Rockets have played 23 games, with a winning rate of less than half, and they simply do not have the style of second place in the West last season.

Harden's poor performance is by no means the only reason why his record has become like this.

In this summer's offseason, the Rockets have made a big move. Their ambition to find the team's big three has never gone away, and this summer, LaMarcus Aldridge was their target. But it's a pity that the two sides didn't reach an agreement in the end.

But some basic operations, Team Rocket can still complete -

Acquired Patrick Beverley with 4 years and 25 million, took Cory Brewer with 3 years and 24 million, signed KJ McDaniels with a 3-year 10 million contract, and then signed Marcus Thorton with a veteran base salary for 1 year;

In the draft, the Rockets selected Sam Decker with the 18th pick in the first round and Montrez Harrell with the second pick in the second round and the 32nd overall pick in the second round.

It also made a big deal that was praised by the media — sending away Nick Johnson, Kostas Papani Culaou, Pablo Prigioni, Joey Dorsey and a protected 2016 first-round pick, trading the Nuggets' star point guard Ty Lawson and a 2017 second-round pick.

Regarding the Rockets' deal, Tiger Fight columnist Charan Mills commented-

"The least surprising thing about this offseason is that Ty Lawson will end up leaving the Denver Nuggets because of all the things he's misbehaved in the last few months."

"In addition to the multiple confirmed drunk driving, some even happened recently, and there are videos of him smoking a hookah, and his comments that he should be traded to the Sacramento Kings have also leaked online."

"Given his actions, it looks like the Rockets are taking some risks by trading Lawson, especially since they sent away a lot of the team's young players to trade Lawson - Kostas Papani Koolau looks like a good piece of the puzzle to keep for the future; Even though he's a bit expensive, and Nick Johnson could develop into a good defender for the team. ”

But for a player of Lawson's calibre, the Rockets gave up just two small puzzle players. As an extremely dynamic point guard with passing skills that other point guards don't have, many expect Lawson to succeed in the Rockets' system. ”

In the 2013-14 season, Lawson averaged 17.6 points and 8.8 assists per game, and in 2014-15, Lawson continued to play well, averaging 15.2 points and 9.6 assists per game, which can be called the top playmaking guard. It can be said that his ability and reached the All-Star level, but what is really is only that honor.

But after joining the Rockets this season, Lawson has not been able to integrate into the team, averaging only 5.6 points and 3.1 assists per game, and the starting No. 1 position was also topped by Beverley.

The expected chemistry didn't happen, and Lawson seemed out of place with the Rockets. And those experts who are optimistic about this deal are naturally slapped in the face.

The introduction of Ty Lawson thought that he could make a big difference, but who knew that it was such a result. As a result, one of the heroes of the Rockets' reach for the Western Conference Finals last season, Josh Smith, the Rockets actually failed to keep it.

So under the combination of their respective factors, Team Rocket has become what it is now.

But it stands to reason that the Rockets shouldn't have played like this when the personnel have not become large and the roster has not undergone painful adjustments. Harden is not in good shape because he is deep in the scarlet vortex; But aren't there still veterans like Ariza, Brewer, Jason Terry, and so on?

This summer, Ariza, along with teammate Harden, was just named one of the top 10 active three-point shooters in the American media, so why can't he help the team win more?

The number one deservedly placed is Stephen Curry.

Listing Curry as the league's top scorer among active players is believed to have the slightest objection from the outside world.

Because in the past three seasons, the player who has hit the most three-pointers in the regular season has been Curry. Last season, he also set a new all-time record for three-point shooting in a single season set in 2013. Curry also won last season's All-Star three-point contest, hitting a total of 98 three-pointers in the playoffs, also setting a new all-time record.

Second place went to Klay Thompson.

As Curry's most reliable partner in the backcourt, Thompson's three-point firepower last season was no less than weak. He hit 239 three-pointers throughout the regular season, second in the league behind Curry. In terms of three-point shooting percentage, he averaged 43.9% shooting per game, ranking fourth in the league. Assuming Thompson gets more shots in the future, his three-point shooting may improve.

Third place went to Kyle Korver of the Hawks.

If you talk purely about projection skills, the closest thing to Curry in the current league is probably Korver. Although Korver didn't shoot Curry as much from three-point range last season, he shot a staggering 49.2 percent from three-point range, which is even higher than the overall shooting percentage of many backcourt players.

The fourth is Harden.

Last season, Harden hit 208 three-pointers, the most on the Rockets and fourth in the league. Of course, compared to the three shooters ahead of him, Harden clearly needs to improve in terms of efficiency, as he is shooting just 37.5% from three-point range.

In fifth place is JJ Redick of the Clippers.

Despite other technical flaws, there aren't many people in the league who can match Redick when it comes to three-point shooting. Last season, Redick made 200 three-pointers, which ranked fifth in the league. In terms of hit percentage, the 43.7% figure also ranks in the top five.

The Trail Blazers' Damion Lillard is sixth on this list.

Lillard's appearance on this list is somewhat surprising. Because Lillard isn't really a great three-point shooter in terms of shooting percentage (34.3 percent) alone. But as the main point of attack for the Trail Blazers from the outside, Lillard made a total of 572 three-pointers last season, a number second only to Curry and second in the league. In terms of three-point shooting, his 196 performances ranked sixth in the league. Clearly, outside the three-point line, Lillard's potential can continue to be explored.

Seventh in line is Ariza.

Last season, Ariza's three-point shooting percentage dropped back to 30 percent. But thanks to the Rockets' system, his outside shooting has increased. He hit a total of 194 three-pointers throughout the regular season, a number second only to Harden within the Rockets and the seventh most among all players in the league.

In eighth place is the Spurs' Danny Green.

Over the past few years, with the Spurs' strong team strength and personal hard work, Green has grown into a top scorer in the league. Last season, he hit another career-high 191 three-point shots; In terms of three-point shooting percentage, his performance of 43.6% is also very efficient.

In ninth place is Wesley Matthews of the Mavericks.

Last season, Matthews' shooting power waned, but he still hit 173 three-pointers throughout the regular season, ranking ninth in the league. Of course, considering that Matthews has only played 60 regular-season games due to injury, that efficiency is remarkable. In the new season, after Matthews joins the Mavericks, he is bound to get more firing rights, and this will be of great benefit to the improvement of his three-point shooting.

The tenth place is Robert Covington of the 76ers.

Last season, despite the overall poor performance of the 76ers, Covington's performance won praise from many industry insiders. You know, just over a year ago, he was on the fringes of the Rockets not being able to play. But today, Covington is the 76ers' top three-point shooter, and last season, he hit a total of 167 three-pointers, ranking 10th in the league.

The rankings are based on the number of goals scored, which is relatively unfair when you take into account the problem of shooting percentage. But if you only think about the shooting percentage, then some players who can't shoot threes will stop shooting after scoring a three-pointer, and a 100% shooting rate will definitely allow him to dominate the scorer list. In that case, the list would not make sense.

But no matter what the hit rate is, as long as you can throw it, it's your ability. If you consider it in this way, this list is much fairer.

When it comes to three-point teams, the first thing that comes to mind is the Warriors. And the Warriors' players also occupy the top two spots on this list, which is indeed worthy of the name.

But the Warriors' infinite scenery also makes many people ignore that the Rockets are actually a three-point team. They also have two players on this list. Although one is fourth and one is seventh, they can still squeeze into this list with a lower than one three-point shooting percentage, which shows that they have taken too many shots to the point of madness.

Ariza only shot 30% from three-point range, but shot the seventh-highest number of three-point goals in the league.

Although "Tiezha" is iron, he can't stand him from daring to shoot, as long as he makes a shooting move outside the three-point line, he is a threat; And the veteran Terry is also a good three-point player. Even Josh Smith, who just left this season, although he looks like a brutalist on the outside, has the heart of a shooter.

The Rockets, whether they are the main team or the bench, have people who can shoot from beyond the three-point line, and there is no doubt that they are also a three-point team.

Although their team's overall three-point shooting percentage is not high, they have Howard on the inside, and the rebounds are guaranteed. So the Rockets' group of outside shooters can fire unscrupulously.

Howard, the "Warcraft" at his peak, but with a group of shooters, he reached the finals.

In the 2008-09 season, Howard took the Turkish "agents" Siddo Turkglou and Rashad Lewis, two interior heavy gunners, as well as a large number of outside shooters such as J.J. Redick, Michael Petrus, and Cornett Lee, with the third regular season record in the East, crossed Kevin Garnett, Paul Pearce, Ray Allen and the Green Shirts, defeated LeBron James and his Cavaliers, and met the Lakers in the finals.

It stands to reason that the current lineup of the Rockets should have some similarities with the Magic team at that time. But why is the current Rockets so underperforming? (To be continued.) )
