New players start practicing! Electric fans begin to practice in a targeted manner to better integrate into the Rockets in the new season

New aid "electric fan" starts training and fully integrates into the Rockets' new season

Recently, Houston Rockets' new aid Finney Smith, the "electric fan" that fans love to call, has started targeted training and fully prepared for integration into the new season. From the additional training video exposed by Houston media, we can see that the "electric fan" is devoted to high-intensity training every day.

From the perspective of training subjects, he currently focuses on strength training. Rockets head coach Uduka has high hopes for Smith, hoping that he can play a key role in the defensive end and make up for the vacancy left by Dillon Brooks after leaving the team. Last season, Smith averaged 8.3 points per game and shot up to 41.4% from three-pointers, making him the most stable striker in the Lakers, and this data is even better than James.

Smith was equally good on the defensive end, and last season he suppressed the All-Star hit rate to 47%, which ranks in the top ten in the league. According to statistics from ESPN analysts, under Smith's defense, the opponent's three-point shooting percentage fell by 8.2%, and the penalty area scored by 4.7 times. What's more obvious is that when he was defending, the Lakers lost 4.8 points per 100 rounds. In the process of lineup adjustment, the Rockets signed Smith with a contract of 53 million for 4 years and 53 million. This signing is smart. After Dillon left the team, the Rockets' wing defense had loopholes, and Smith, who has 118 playoff experience, can not only enhance the intensity of the defense, but also inject experience into the young lineup. In addition, his contract salary is reasonable, accounting for only 8.7% of the salary space, but it can provide a 2.1 cutoff and a 43.2% bottom corner three-point shooting percentage. His ability to defend from No. 2 to No. 4 on the defensive end, as well as his lack of ball possession on the offensive end, is perfectly adapted to the team's systems of Durant and Van Vritte.

This time, the "Electric Fan" actively carried out targeted training, showing a good professional attitude and determination to integrate into the team. I believe that in the new season, he will shine on the Rockets' field and work with his teammates to launch a higher goal. Rockets fans are also full of expectations for the new season.
