The first thing Xie Kai found was not his shooting, but his layup skill set.

Compared to shooting, layups are slightly faster to adapt to.

In the summer league match against the Kings on July 20, Xie Kai made 12 of 20 shots from the basket, including 6 of 12 free throws. He scored a personal high of 30 points in the summer league, helping the team defeat their opponent.

Xie Kai performed well, but did not attract much praise. A local Houston media said that what the Rockets need is not a No. 2 who can only operate in the 3-second zone. The 3-second zone is Yao Ming's area. As the No. 2

position, you need to hit long shots from the outside, which is the most important thing to do.

However, there are many people who support Xie Kai. Another Houston basketball media said that Xie Kai is getting better and better. He showed his versatility as a shooter in this game. In the past, everyone only focused on his long shots without the ball. It turns out that he

He is also such a threat when attacking the basket, and his physical fitness is really underestimated.

Xie Kai doesn't care what these media people say. Media people just want to find topics. Without topics, how can they attract attention? Where will the traffic come from? He knows his own situation best. If he does everything according to what the media says, then he will

I'm really at a loss what to do.

The nine-day Las Vegas Summer League came to an end. After the last day of the game, Russell Robinson invited Xie Kai and Dorsey to dinner.

"Thank you both for helping me in these games!" Russell Robinson is not good at words, but he is not a fool. Xie Kai and Dorsey have been creating opportunities for him to perform. How could he not know.

"You're welcome Russell, we are all friends. If you join the Houston Rockets, we will both be very happy!" Xie Kai said.

Dorsey nodded in agreement.

Xie Kai didn't know if Russell Robinson was under the radar of the Rockets management. However, although he was unwilling, he still knew very well that there was not much hope that his old teammate wanted to stay.

…

After the summer league ended, Xie Kai devoted himself to hard training. He didn't have much time to waste because he needed to adapt to this new body.

Xie Kai found that although the scores in the personal ability quantification form did not change much, the scores of specific items changed dramatically.

The reason is very simple, that is, my body has become stronger, but it is still unable to adapt. The original shooting and other technical scores have become lower. Therefore, the offensive scores have decreased, but at the same time, the defense

The scores for end and physical fitness have increased.

The average may not change in the short term, but once you get used to it, there will definitely be a huge improvement.
