The Rockets were poached? The Knicks are interested in Uduka, and the Rockets refuse to release them! Sidely prove that Ukulele coach is capable

Whether it is the regular season or the playoffs of this season, there are always people who think that the Rockets head coach Uduka is not capable of coaching. For example, his offensive guidance is poor, the Rockets' offensive tactics lack system and routines, and there is no super scorer who can play singles in the Rockets, so the Rockets are in the middle and lower reaches in the league, whether it is their outside shooting percentage or overall scoring ability. This is indeed Uduka's shortcomings - he has never been an offensive head coach.

However, the achievements made by Udu Kass in leading the Rockets in two years are obvious to all. Last season, the Rockets won 41 wins and 41 losses, ranking 11th in the Western Conference and almost entered the playoffs qualifying round; this season, the Rockets soared to second place in the Western Conference, with a record of 52 wins and 30 losses, becoming one of the top teams in the league.

Although the Rockets failed and were eliminated by the Warriors in the playoffs, the Rockets proved their strength in 82 games in the regular season. Coach Wuduka also proved that he was not worthy of fame with his excellent team basketball tactics and strong defensive performance. In the selection of the best coach of the year, Uduka ranks third, which is also a proof and recognition of his ability.

Now, the Knicks have just been eliminated from the Eastern Conference Finals, and their head coach, former Rockets assistant coach Thibodeau was directly fired. It is reported that the coaches of the Eastern Conference powerhouse, the New York Knicks, are interested in the two top Texas coaches, namely the Rockets coach Uduka, and the Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd. Both coaches were once famous players in the league, and now they have become the coaches of their respective teams.

It can be said that although the two are relatively young, they perform quite well in the coach position - last season, Kidd led the Mavericks to the finals; and this season, Uduka helped the Rockets become the second-ranked team in the Western Conference.

Although the Knicks are interested in Kidd and Uduka, at least the Rockets have directly rejected the Knicks' poaching. According to Rockets' reporter Kelly Iko, although there are reports that Uduka may take over the Knicks' coach position, the Rockets are not interested in this. The idea of ​​the Rockets is that they will work with coach Uduka for a long time and are actively preparing for this busy offseason. We know that coach Uduka signed a four-year contract with the Rockets that year, but now only half of it is going on, and at least the two sides still have a two-year cooperation period. Furthermore, the Rockets have made such a rapid progress this season, Uduka will definitely make an indelible contribution. As long as the Rockets led by Uduka does not have a serious decline in the record, then in two years, I believe that the Rockets will still reach a new contract with Uduka and continue to keep him as head coach with the Rockets.

More importantly, according to previous reports, many players in the league are willing to play for Rockets coach Uduka, which undoubtedly increases the weight of the Rockets attracting stars.

The Knicks, who made it to the Eastern Conference Finals, also proves the ability of coach Uduka from the indirection. It seems that the Rockets signed with Uduka with a four-year contract two years ago, and they really did not choose the wrong person. Although the Rockets were dug up for a corner, the Rockets management directly rejected the Knicks' intention, which is the right choice.
