The Warriors overturned the first 76ers in the East 107-96. Curry conquered the opponent with 49 points and 10 three-pointers and also conquered them. Fans all over the world.
For a period of time in the past, every Warriors game, every day was " Curry night", but this night has a special meaning. In the last defeat of the Green Army, Curry sprained his ankle when he got rid of the last quarter. He was lying on the ground and slapped on the floor, looking very painful, but after swallowing the painkiller, Curry continued to fight.
The regret brought about by victory and defeat has been diminished in the context of this heroism. Curry managed to finish a game with his stamina, and he was vigorous in his sentimentality, especially heroic in sadness.
Warriors look different now and then, but Curry is still that Curry. No, he is no longer the Curry he used to be. There were so many helpers around Curry that he could punch in and get off work in three quarters. But now, Curry needs to fight to the last minute and needs to play MVP-level performance to get a chance to win. His ability to play under heavy pressure and court control has reached a new level.
play happily and chase after Ray Allen , this kind of Curry is very beautiful.
This is against the 76ers,Curry has set many records. With 49 points, he averaged 31.4 points per game this season, surpassing Bill's 31.1 points and rising to the first place in the scoring list.
He hit 10+ three-pointers for the 21st time in his career, 6 times this season alone, surpassing Clay’s career 10+ three-pointers (5 times).
Curry scored 30+ in 11 consecutive games and tied for seventh in the last 40 years. He got 40+ for the 8th time this season, at least 3 times more than other players.
In 10 games in April, Curry averaged 40.8 points per game and made 7.2 three-pointers per game. He made 54.9% of his field goals and 50.3% of his three-pointers. It is definitely one of the most dazzling "personal show" series in history. In history, only Chamberlain, Baylor, Kobe and Harden have averaged 40+ in 10 games.
Curry has made 89 three-pointers in the last 11 games, more than three-pointers like Westbrook, Letters, and Embiid .
Don’t forget, Curry is 33 years old, and he got 5 times 40+ this month, surpassing Jordan and Kobe, setting a single-month record of 40+ for 33-year-old players .
record is great enough,But the process is even more shocking. As soon as this game came up, the 76ers put defensive pressure on Curry. While they flanked Curry, they tried to cut off his contact with his teammates. At the start of the game, Curry missed 2 shots and made 3 turnovers. His brother Seth felt hot in the hand and drew a three-pointer on his brother's head.
Curry's cooling became the epitome of the Warriors' opening. They made 0 of 6 shots and were beaten 12-0 by their opponents. But when Curry turned on the "killing god" mode, it was easy to chase points. Curry made two three-pointers in 24 seconds in the middle of the first quarter. He first used the off-ball screen and went to the three-point line to extend Wiggins_ Span11span made a mid-range shot and then used the pick-and-roll to make a 3-pointer to stop the 76ers.
The 76ers did not dare to relax their defense against Curry for a while. At the end of the first quarter, Curry first gave the ball to the outside "brother-in-law" . Mein Lee , and then an empty cut to catch the ball and make a layup, only when he is off the ball, he can get a moment of clearance.
Force Curry to hand over the ball to his teammates. This is what the 76ers need to achieve. Playing off the ball may be the most comfortable and labor-saving way for Curry, but this is not the Warriors' winning formula. Only in the state of holding the ball, Curry's personal offense can be completely vented in a non-destructive manner. Of the 10 three-pointers made by Curry in this field, only one is a catch and shoot, and the remaining 9 are all quick shots after holding the ball. .
This season, NBA has 5 dribbles and 7 three-pointers.Curry occupied four times, the other time was Lillard.
It can’t be said that the 76ers have no defense in place. They have done everything they can. Arrange a flanking attack outside the three-point line, someone leads the defense, and delays at any time. When holding the ball, the two defenders follow each other. Once they break into the penalty area, the defense will follow. As long as the other Warriors are more accurate, maybe Curry doesn't need to break into the opponent's base camp alone like Ma Yongzhen to complete the group annihilation.
But in this game, when his teammates made 4 of 15 three-pointers, Curry could only do it by himself.
The battle in the last quarter reached a climax. "Ku chasing pick-and-roll " played two rounds in a row. A few years ago, the "dream chase of _" could be cut. Down, occasionally complete jump shots, can also serve as a second transfer station, to distribute the ball to the open teammates outside, thus deriving changeable tactics. But now, facing Embiid’s inside line, the "dream chasing" offensive end is even less useful, and there is no stable offensive executor on the outside line. This has caused the "Ku chasing pick and roll" to become a mere Green screen. Kill in the implementation.
This kind of brand-name battle is more cruel. The 76ers knew that Curry would take action, but they couldn't prevent it. Curry knew he had to fight like this every round, but he didn't hesitate to hesitate.
After that, he used the cover of Looney,Without fully opening the space, facing the interference of his younger brother Seth, he hits a long shot.
flying knife, see also flying knife. 1 minute before the final, Curry singled out George Hill, he used the change of direction and step to take Hill out of the defensive circle, calmly hit the 10th three-pointer of the field, is also the largest open, the longest pause Three points, a perfect end to this wonderful performance.
In this season, Curry's three-point shooting percentage of retreat steps ranks third in all technical items, with a shooting rate of 51.5%, ranking first in efficiency, and he just completed it in the best way. End.
The result of this game is amazing, but also full of irony.
Before playing the 76ers, it is expected that Curry may take a rotation. However, Warriors coach Cole announced the news of Curry’s appearance before the game. Like the fans, Cole also has questions about Curry. And reverence. "Seeing Curry limping in the last game, I thought he couldn't beat him. I didn't expect him to be able to play this time."
Cole's remarks meant that beating the 76ers was completely Ku Make your own decision. As for whether such a choice is “wise”, no one can say for sure. After all, the opponent is an elite team with 22 wins and 5 losses at home. Embiid is also one of the MVP leaders. The Warriors may not win. If Curry aggravates the injury, it may not be worth the loss.
The charm of competitive culture lies in,You can never use a simple comparison of strength to make predictions, because you can never count the illusory and metaphysical things like "willpower". You can control yourself not to make mistakes on the court, and you can ensure that you complete defensive communication with your teammates. Try hard to fight each offensive round, but you can't control how much enzymes the liver secretes, how much insulin secretes are secreted, and you can't control your heartbeat, blood pressure, and brain subconsciousness...
In order to save, Warriors two-way contract player Toscano-Anderson suffered a concussion. The picture of him tumbling on the technical stage reappeared in his mind over and over again, and he made this choice only for one ball possession, and furthermore, he did not want to lose a victory.
If Curry truce, it is tantamount to giving up a game. This is an invisible profanity to Toscano Anderson's fighting attitude in the last game.
When he is absent, Green tends to take turns to rest. "Dreams" this season has 18 assists and double figures 13 times. He can only be used with Curry. If both are absent, the Warriors' offense and defense will inevitably collapse.
But the data tells them that when maintaining the current staffing, the Warriors need not fear any opponents, since Wiseman was injured. The Warriors' offensive efficiency soared from 22nd (108.7) in the league to first (121.9) in the same period, and their defensive efficiency also rose from 9th (110.4) to 5th (107.4).
This result seems to prove the accuracy of this data, Curry’s offense, plus the Warriors’ defensive efforts,A victory was achieved.
The incredible "Great Emperor" looked lonely and sad after the game. In this case, he repeatedly blocked offensives. In the second quarter, he suffered from the caps of Wiggins and his brother-in-law. The critical moment of the final quarter There was a walking in the clip, Embiid still made 11 of 14 free throws from the free throw line, but he was like a wounded beast throughout the game, and it was difficult to find an antidote.
On the opposite side of the auditorium, Toscano Anderson, wearing a baseball cap, sits and sees him, the Warriors have infinite motivation.
won this game. The Warriors are only 0.5 wins away from the eighth Grizzlies in the West. If they reach the top eight, they will have more initiative in the play-offs and not only have two chances to qualify for the postseason. Game, and as long as you win the first game, you can lock in seventh.
The last time Curry led the team to the playoffs as a "downstream team" was in 2014. In the first round of that year, they lost to the Clippers in a tie-breaker.
Biologists believe that every seven years, the cells in the human body have to be replaced. In other words, you are no longer the self you were seven years ago. Not only is your body not what it was seven years ago, but your thinking, behavior, and consciousness are very different from those seven years ago. Every seven years is a new baptism.
The warrior witnessed the rise and fall of the dynasty in seven years. Curry spent seven years telling the true meaning of perseverance. Although his performance was as aggressive as singing, it was difficult to be elected MVP.Even if he tried his best, his team still couldn't make it into the championship contenders.
championships every year, but such a brilliant performance is not common. Don't think that the best Curry meets the worst warrior. Only formalists can use this lament to arouse people's regret and penetrate the consciousness that obscures the truth.
If the Warriors are as strong as ever, we may never see Curry like this, because he has never been an offensive man.
Unless it is like this, it is a last resort.
As for the future, leave it alone. It is enough to enjoy every moment of classics that Curry brings now, and you and I are fortunate to witness this tumultuous time.
