$21.5 million in 3 years! Good things turn bad things? Now, it s not very cost-effective to sign him

According to the NBA China official website: Doncic, Antetokounmpo, Wagner Jr., Schroder and Shinkin were selected for the European Cup All-Plane.

It is worth mentioning that Jokic was selected as the second team. In other words, Shin Kyung was selected for defeating the former. In fact, during the European Cup, Shin Kyung averaged 21.6 points, 10.1 rebounds, 6.6 assists per game, and his overall shooting rate was 55%. More importantly, he led Türkiye to create history - reaching the European Cup final for the first time. From another perspective, Shin Kyung's selection is justified.

For the Rockets, Shen Jing's rapid growth is definitely a good thing, but based on this, I think Capela's cost-effectiveness is not high.

Shen Jing

Shen Jing is growing rapidly, and with the age of only 23, I expect the former to play in the new season to reach 35+. The reason is not 38+? It is very important that 35+ is relatively less likely to cause fatigue and increase the chance of injury.

In other words, the average playing time for other Rockets centers in the new season is only about one quarter. The playing time is compressed, this is one of them.

Inadequate competitiveness, the Rockets won 9.4 points in 100 rounds in the 794 minutes of Adams, ranking first in the team; in 3162 minutes of absent, the team won 3.3 points in 100 rounds, second only to Shin Kyung, Amen Thompson, Jabbarry Smith Jr. and Van Vleet.

In other words, although there is not much playing time, Adams has a good importance - the team is more efficient in winning games when they are on the court. Based on this, in my opinion, Capela cannot compete with Adams.

1. Adams and the team have formed a good chemical reaction;

2. Adams has shown the importance of the team.

is not competitive enough, this is the second one.

Contract

This summer, Stone brought Capela back to the Rockets by signing first and then changing. The average salary is only 7 million (191st in the league in the 25-26 season) is the team's 8th or even 9th man contract. It is normal, but the problem is 3 years and subsequent news points out that this contract is fully guaranteed. The contract has a long term, which is the third one.

In summary, the reason why Capela's contract is not cost-effective at this stage is reflected in the following three points:

1. Shen Jing's rapid growth has taken most of its playing time;

2. Capela's competitiveness is insufficient;

3. Capela's contract period is long.

Relatively speaking, I think the first and third points are the main reasons.

First of all, if Shin Kyung does not show rapid progress, then the average playing time in the new season will be about 30+. In this way, the Rockets' inside thickness league, which has Shin Kyung, Adams and Capela. But the problem is that this Turkish striker has shown very good combat power and plasticity, and it is really unreasonable to not add time.

Secondly, after the trade comes to Durant, the Rockets' goal is to win the championship. It would be a bit extravagant to "maintain" a third center with an annual salary of 7 million yuan. More importantly, this contract has three years left.

In summary, the low "cost-performance ratio" reflects the rapid growth of Shenjing to compress Capela's time, which is not competitive and is a multi-year contract. Of course, this also confirms the saying: plans cannot keep up with changes.
