Hsing 24+16+6! Become the second person in history. Congratulations to the Rockets for ushering in a super giant. He will surpass Jokic

In the fierce competition of the men's basketball team in the European Championship, the Turkish men's basketball team narrowly defeated Sweden 85-79, becoming the first team to advance to the quarterfinals. Currently, four games have ended in the 1/8 finals of the European Championship, with Türkiye, Germany, Lithuania and Finland taking the lead in advancing. After losing to Germany in the warm-up match, Türkiye has been unstoppable in the main match, with an impressive record of 6 wins and 0 losses, and Germany is not even apart. They not only defeated the powerful Serbia, but also showed their tenacious fighting spirit and dominance at critical moments in this game against Sweden. Türkiye's core player Shin Kyung became the focus of the game. He not only performed well on both offense and defense, but also led the team to the next round with amazing data and key performances.

At this European Championship, Türkiye's rise is eye-catching. Especially in the game against Serbia, Shin Kyung suppressed the league's top center Jokic head-on. Whether it is personal data, offense and defense performance or positive and negative values, Shin Kyung To has the advantage in all aspects. Although Serbia's overall performance was limited due to insufficient firepower on the outside due to a torn hamstring of Bogdan, Türkiye's victory was by no means accidental. Serbia was regarded as a favorite to win the championship, but they lost one after another in the round of 16, first losing to Türkiye, and then lost to Finland 86-92, and were unfortunately eliminated. Jokic's shortcomings on the defensive end were fully exposed and were targeted by his opponents continuously, while Shin Kyung showed all-round dominance.

Shin Kyung's transformation in this European Championship is particularly eye-catching. In the past, he was often compared with Jokic, but now he has shown potential beyond his predecessors. After losing weight, Shen Jing not only retained his core strength, but also significantly improved his defense replacement ability. Facing Serbia, he can be as stable as a rock in the inside, and can also flexibly follow and defend small players from the outside. What is even more surprising is that Shin Kyung's three-point shooting ability has also made great progress. He hit 3 three-pointers against Serbia, which made Jokic shake his head helplessly. In the game against Sweden, although Shin Kyung felt bad in the first half, he quickly adjusted in the second half and showed his strong self-correction ability, which was simply Durant. At the beginning of the game, Türkiye fell into a passive position. Sweden opened fire in the first quarter and led 23-20 with accurate outside projection and inside breakthrough. Türkiye mainly relied on Ottoman's 11 points in a single quarter, but the overall rhythm of the team was restrained by the opponent, so Shen Jing did not open up this. Shin Kyoto's form was still sluggish in the second quarter. His half-time shooting percentage was only 3 of 10 shots and only scored 6 points, 8 rebounds and 1 assist, with a plus-negative value of -2. Sweden took advantage of the situation to expand the gap to 42-37. Some fans even began to question Shin Kyung, believing that he was "beaten back to his original form." However, Shin Kyung rebounded strongly in the second half and fought back the criticism with practical actions. In the third quarter, Shin Kyung was like an awakened beast, leading Türkiye to a 26-13 offensive climax, overtaking 8 points in a single quarter. He made two difficult layups in a row, created opportunities for his teammates on the offensive end, and frantically grabbed frontcourt rebounds, winning valuable second offensive opportunities for the team. The final quarter of the game has reached a fever pitch, and the score difference between the two sides has always been around 2-4 points. At the critical moment, Shin Jing showed his big heart. He used the ball to attack the basket three times, completed the difficult basket picking, and even staged a self-throwing and self-dumping to ignite the atmosphere of the whole game. In the final stage of the game, he first blocked the opponent's three-pointer, then assisted Ottoman, and after receiving the pass, he locked in the victory with a two-handed dunk. In the whole game, Shin Kyung made 8 of 16 shots, 8 of 12 free throws, scoring 24 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 blocks, including 9 offensive rebounds, and his shooting percentage rebounded to 50%. Ottoman contributed 17 points, and he also made an indelible contribution.

Shen Jing's performance is phenomenal. He became the second player in the European Championship to score at least 20 points, 15 rebounds and 5 assists in a single game in the past 30 years, an achievement that even Jokic failed to achieve. Shin Kyung's adjustment ability and dominance at critical moments are amazing, which is in line with his performance with the Rockets last season. As the only player selected for the Rockets to be an All-Star, Shin Kyung averaged 20 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists per game, showing the potential of a top center. What is even more exciting is that he is only 23 years old and has huge room for future development. The Rockets management decisively renewed Shen Jing's contract with $185 million in five years, and this decision now seems very forward-looking. Imagine the Rockets lineup in the new season, Shin Kyung's growth trajectory is exciting.

Especially in his partner with Durant next season, Shin Kyung's pick-and-roll ability will become the killer of the Rockets' offensive system. Whether the opponent chooses to attack Shin Kyung, short Durant, or strictly prevent Durant and let Shin Kyung end, the Rockets' outside shooter group will make the opponent unable to defend. What's more, Shin Kyung's three-point shooting percentage is steadily improving, and his teammate Amen is also practicing his outside shooting. Shin Kyung, who has excellent offense and defense, has the team's confidence to compete for the championship with Durant and the Rockets' external firepower. Shin Kyung's rise is not only a personal victory, but also a symbol of the revival of Turkish basketball. His performance made people no longer simply compare him with Jokic, but began to define the unique style of the young center with the "Shen Kyung system". In the future, Shin Kyung is expected to become a benchmark in the league, and other young players may take "Small Shin Kyung" as their goal. The Rockets selected Shin Kyung at the 16th pick in 2021, which may become one of the best operations in NBA history.
