Stephen Curry is the best player in the Warriors' lineup, but in contrast, Draymond Green is considered the absolute leader of this Warriors locker room, and can even be said to be the absolute core and soul of the Warriors.
That doesn't mean Stephen Curry isn't a good leader, and former Warriors player Maris Speights revealed that Curry has always been a "lead by example" player, noting the point guard's work ethic throughout his career:
"Stephen is the leader in the game, he says something but doesn't speak like Draymond, he's always been a player who leads by example. For me, the biggest reason he's so good and he's so successful is that he works very hard in training. ”
"He basically keeps working hard after training, that's his work ethic, he's like a robot, he knows what he's going to do, that's why nobody is surprised by his accomplishments, they see how hard he really works and how he takes care of his body."
Curry is undoubtedly the greatest player in Warriors history, and in the eyes of former teammates, Curry's success comes from hard work and work ethic.
On the other hand, gary Payton talked about his son Gary Payton II's current strong performance for the Warriors in an interview:
"It's been six years since he's been a pro and I'm happy he's been playing in the Bay Area, it's a really good team, they really found the right place for him, they gave him the opportunity he needed and other teams wouldn't let him play like that, and I'm happy with that." I know he can do these things, he just needs to have the right opportunities, and now he's done it. ”
So far this season, Gary Payton II is arguably the Warriors' biggest surprise aside from Jordan Poole, and his performance has undoubtedly helped the Warriors enough.
Finally, the Warriors' injury situation has been updated, including Otto Porter Jr. who did not play the Warriors against the Hawks due to a left-foot injury, but veteran Andre Iguodala played against the Hawks after missing the last game:
For now, the Warriors still need to wait for Klay Thompson's return, and the team is not facing a particularly serious injury problem. After Thompson's comeback, this Warriors will also have better competitiveness.
