How did Rockets' Josh Christopher get his groove back? An assist goes to a turntable.
Rockets guard Josh Christopher has turned around his season recently. An assist goes to his father's musical tastes to help his son"feel real smooth."There were assorted theories to explain Josh Christopher’s improvement. All were valid but missed the essential change.
“My dad got me a new vinyl record for Christmas so after each home game, he’ll surprise me with a new record,” Christopher said.“Vinyl’s cracking, for sure,” Christopher said. “It makes me feel real smooth.” In his past 22 games, he has averaged 8.3 points on 50.3 percent shooting after averaging 3.2 points on 40.2 percent shooting in his first 31 games. His 3-point shot has most dramatically come around, making 38.9 percent of his attempts from 3-point range in the past 22 games after connecting on just 5 of 34 3s in his first 33 games played this season.
If there was frustration with his inconsistent playing time or even his relatively limited role, Christopher did not show it. The readiness allowed him to take advantage of the increased opportunity since late January, and especially since the trade deadline when Eric Gordon was dealt to the Clippers.
