On April 28, Beijing time, the Warriors continued the fifth game of fierce competition at home. In this game, Curry returned to the starting lineup and performed well. In the end, he led the team to defeat Nuggets 102-98 to enter the second round. Jokic's playoff trip was officially ended. Looking back on the entire series, Jokic Jokic was almost online every game, but the team overall did not support them to go further. On the Warriors, the effect that the complete lineup should play, especially the Thompson after the return.
In this game, Thompson scored 15 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 4 steals. His firepower was still not weak on the offensive end, especially in the key goals in the final quarter. Thompson's 4 steals on the defensive end were significant. Without these 4 steals, the Warriors would likely have made overtime with the Nuggets today, or even reversed. Looking back at Thompson's first round, you will find that although his accuracy has dropped, he is still the best player in the league to shoot three-pointers. Thompson shot a total of 21 three-pointers in the first four games. In the regular season of this season, Thompson's return effect was not good, and even Thompson lost 6 games in a row.
Many fans believe that the Warriors system now has no place for Thompson, and his return will only destroy the chemistry established by the Warriors. This is actually half true or wrong. Even if Thompson plays alone in the playoffs and doesn't match Curry, you will find it strange. He can't find space to shoot and the offense and defense conversion is not fast enough. But once Splash Brothers merges, Thompson's role will be reflected. His tacit understanding with Curry has been deep into the bone marrow and there is no need for extra tactics at all. Therefore, after Curry returned to the playoffs, Thompson's role was fully reflected. The Warriors' new death five-small must have Thompson's position.
In addition to being irreplaceable in the Warriors, Thompson is also the love expert outside the court. I don’t know how many people remember that Tang Shen and Ivy’s fairy love. The two fell in love at first sight in a nightclub, and then began a three-year love. You know, Thompson is not a pure virgin. His frequency of changing girlfriends is even comparable to changing clothes, but he has been with Ivy for three years. This is enough to show the feelings of God Tang for Aiwei. As a model and internet celebrity, Aiwei's style is similar to Kardashian, but Aiwei's appearance is more gentle and very consistent with the aesthetics of Asians. It can be said that Tang Shen can gain such popularity in China and has a certain relationship with his girlfriend Aiwei. However, this story ended with a breakup. At present, God of Soup has returned to his life as a playboy. Recently, photos of him having gone out with his new girlfriend were exposed.
Warriors have advanced to the second round. In the second round, the Warriors may encounter the most difficult opponent, the Grizzlies, and look forward to Thompson's performance in the next round.
