This morning, the Warriors beat the Suns 122:116 at home. While winning four straight, they also temporarily won the invisible contest with the Grizzlies and remained eighth in the Western Conference with a 0.5-game advantage. Considering the two teams After the schedule and recent state, this is also likely to be the final ranking of the two teams this season!
The warriors with four consecutive victories have been going all the way. The first and second strongest teams in the league, such as Sir Lianke and the Suns, let people see the profound heritage of this former king, and they were even called black. The slogan of seven black eights, but to tell the truth, being able to successfully enter the playoffs is already the limit of this warrior. If you want to go further in the playoffs, it can only be a dream! The editor here is not to belittle the Warriors, but after a season of confrontation, each team has already found a way to deal with this Warriors, that is, at all costs, double-team Curry !
This point has been thoroughly implemented from the showdown between the Suns and the Warriors today. After the whole game, as long as Curry catches the ball with , he will be double-teamed by 2-3 people almost instantly, forcing him to give the ball to his teammates. Such defense treatment is simply unheard of , you know, the double-teaming of Curry is not just one or two rounds, but the normal game for 48 minutes. Under such abnormal defensive intensity, Curry today He was forced to shoot 7 of 22 shots, 1 of 11 three-pointers, and only scored 21 points, 3 rebounds, 6, , and .
While Curry was being guarded, the Warriors were able to win today because of many factors, the most important of which was the rise of Wiggins . He made 17 of 24 shots in the field today, crazy He scored 38 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. While ravaging the Suns penalty area many times, he also placed good restrictions on Devin Booker on the defensive end.And hit a crucial three-pointer , which helped the Warriors to close the game!
In fact, the outbreak of Wiggins was expected. After all, the sun was weak in the striker group and frame protection of , which determined that they could not deal with some of the league's top strikers, but this hard-won victory only depended on the power. The outbreak of Kings is obviously not enough. What I really want to brag about today are all the role players of the Warriors! Bazemore , Poole, Anderson , these unnamed people, when Curry was double-teamed, took the opportunity to give the sun a hard blow, and such a smooth performance, in the Warriors this season Almost never appeared in the first half of the race!
The outbreak of role players brought this difficult victory. This is by no means a good signal for the Warriors. You must know that after entering the playoffs, the enemy's double-team against Curry will only be stronger. At that time, it is obviously unrealistic to expect this group of role players to play such wonderful key performances every game, but being able to bring the Warriors to this stage is enough to prove the greatness of Curry. After all, the editor can say responsibly that this Curry in this season is the star with the highest defensive intensity in the league, no one!
