4 consecutive victories! Shen Jing hit 21+8+5, becoming the first in the European Championships in 30 years, Ataman talked about Jokic s showdown

Türkiye is invincible in the group stage of the Men's Basketball European Championship. Facing the strong Estonia, Türkiye has won 84-64 and has won four consecutive victories. Türkiye has not lost a single European Championship so far. I have to say that Shin Kyung is still very good. He did not fail in one of the four games, and he faced a good inside line. There are Valan, Posses, and insiders like Kota. But Shin Kyung suppressed everything, including his former nemesis Valan, who is now unable to fight Shin Kyung.

Especially in the past 7 games, including 3 warm-up games, Shin Kyung averaged 22.3 points, 8.4 rebounds and 5 assists per game, and his shooting percentage of 65% was not inferior to the template Jokic. It is worth mentioning that Shin Kyung has also become the first person in the European Championship history in the past 30 years. Facing Estonia, Shin Kyung played 32 minutes in the game, shooting 8 of 13 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, scoring 21 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 attack and 1 interruption. Shin Kyung is also the only player who has scored at least 20+5+5 in three consecutive games in the past 30 years of the European Championships.

Estonia is not a weak team either. They were indeed beaten by Shin Kyung in the first half today. Türkiye has shown an extremely smooth team attack since the beginning, and they revolved around Shen Jing as the system. Shin Kyung got the ball at a high position, and Estonia had infinite attacks. But Shin Kyung's ability to play was fully demonstrated, especially when there was a goal to pass Ottoman through the crotch. No one expected Shin Kyung to pass it, including Ottoman, and he missed the opportunity to end the ball directly, and stopped for a few seconds and committed a foul to waste an assist.

In addition, Shin Kyung's ability to hold the ball, he advanced all the way from the backcourt, and then a one-stop tomahawk dunk was amazing. At least in the first half, Türkiye's offensive and defensive capabilities were amazing under the leadership of Shin Kyung, and they also led Estonia by 19 points. Türkiye's teammates are also very good. After Shin Kyung passes the ball, he always hits three-pointers to respond to Estonia's double-team. The key to complimenting Osmani and Ottoman is that the two of them are not accurate. But Türkiye relaxed in the second half, Estonia started directly, and Kurame, Drell and Hermet fired continuously, suppressing Türkiye 22-19 in a single quarter. In the last quarter, Türkiye finally got serious and scored 19-15 in a single quarter. Shin Kyung's plus or negative value today is +22, the highest in the game, second only to Shin Kyung is teammate Larkin's +18. Shinkin, Osmani, Bona, Ottoman, Hazel and Kokmaz, Türkiye's lineup does have the strength to challenge Serbia. After today's game, Türkiye's coach Ataman showed up. He said he would beat Serbia with all his might, and they also believe that Shin Kyung can fight Jokic.

Serbia's current record is also 3 wins and 0 losses without losing, and Turkey will face Serbia head-on in the early morning of September 4, which is also a contest between the Fire Dragon family.

Ataman said: "Beating Serbia with all his might and becoming the first in the group stage. This is our plan. I know that Serbia has Jokic, but we also have Shin Kyung. And we have a way out. Even if we lose the game, it doesn't mean we will miss the trophy goal, and there is still a fault tolerance rate."

Since the Rockets selected Shin Kyung with the 16th pick in 2021, they have worked hard towards Jokic. Stone said this year's offseason that in 21, the Rockets wanted to trade upwards with multiple first-round picks and get the No. 6 pick to pick Shin Kyung, but they failed to get what they wanted. In the end, Shin Kyung fell to the 16th pick himself, and the Rockets used two first rounds to win the No. 16 pick in the Thunder. Shin Kyung's performance in the past four years has not disappointed the Rockets. As Stone said, Shin Kyung became the MVP of the Turkish League at the age of 18, which is why the Rockets want to win him. Moreover, Shin Kyung showed today that what the Rockets wanted to see was a three-pointer, and his three-pointer of 2 of 3 shots in the game was Shin Kyung's hard training during the offseason. The Rockets also need Shin Kyung to practice three-pointers in preparation for a duo that poses a powerful threat to Durant.
