Average of 20+3+7, leading the team to win the championship! The 32-year-old veteran returned to the top? The Rockets shouldn t have let him go back then

On September 16, the European Championships had all ended. In the end, the Turkish team led by Shin Kyung lost to the German men's basketball team and ranked second. A silver medal also made Shin Kyung look depressed, but that doesn't matter - Shin Kyung is only 23 years old, and his Turkish team is in the rising period, and they are still one of the favorites to win the championship in the next European Championship.

The German men's basketball team performed better. Although they were suppressed by Turkey in the first half of the final and were behind, veteran Schroeder hit three-pointers and scored continuously at critical moments, and sent 12 assists in a single game to help the German men's basketball team turn the defeat into victory. As a result, the German men's basketball team became the champion of the European Championship and defeated the powerful Turkish team. 32-year-old veteran Schroeder has become the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of this European Championship.

More importantly, Schroeder's data is quite beautiful. According to statistics, Schroeder led the team to a record of 9 wins and 0 losses in the 9 games he played for the German team. During his 29.3 minutes of playing time, Schroeder can contribute 20.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 0.8 steals per game. His shooting percentage reaches 46.2%, three-point shooting percentage 32.8%, and free throw shooting percentage 87.2%.

Although his personal data may be inferior to Shin Kinluo, Schroeder led the German team to win the European Basketball Championship, which no one can compare with him. Even the German team's star striker Wagner Jr. is not as important and performing as veteran Schroeder in the game.

It can only be said that although Schroeder has moved to many teams in the NBA and has become a famous "wanderer" in the NBA, he did return to his peak at the age of 32. This summer, he not only won the European Championship, but also became the best player in the European Championship, with a per game of 20+3+7. Schroeder will play for the Kings next season.

In fact, many years ago, after the Rockets started the reconstruction mode, they traded center Thes to the Celtics in exchange for Schroeder and center Fernando who played for the Celtics at the time. However, after the end of that season, Schroeder did not receive a contract extension from the Rockets. In fact, his performance that season was more comprehensive and efficient than Rockets point guard Porter Jr., but the Rockets still did not provide Schroder with a contract in order to rebuild.

After all, the Rockets' main goal at that time was to lose more games, win the No. 1 pick, and allow young players to fully train in the game, so Schroeder was unable to stay with the Rockets in the end. If it were now, the Rockets really needed Schroeder, because now, only Van Vriter, Holiday and Shepard, the three point guards of the Rockets are probably only able to match Schroeder.

The young Shepard has poor defense ability, weak confrontation ability, and has a very average breakthrough ability. Compared with Schroeder, shepard will obviously lose; while 29-year-old Holiday can defend and has a 40% three-point shooting percentage, his tandem ability is far inferior to Schroeder.

If Schroeder can play with Van Vreet, Shin Kyung and Durant now, he will obviously become the absolute core of the Rockets' second team. However, in order to rebuild, the Rockets focused too much on cultivating new players. Now, Schroeder still has the strength to be a quasi-first-class point guard, and the Rockets shouldn't have let him go easily back then.
