Yesterday the Suns and warriors both won a victory at home, the two teams have a record of 19 wins and 4 losses to continue to dominate the top two in the Western Conference record list, I don't know why I suddenly remembered the two seasons when the Rockets blocked the Warriors, but the difference is that this year's Warriors are more like the Rockets of the year, and this year's Suns are more like the Warriors of the year.
In the Game where the Warriors beat the Magic, Curry and Wiggins hit a total of 15 three-pointers, and the Warriors' three-point shooting rate was as high as 50%, and the Game when the Suns defeated the Spurs, although the Suns only hit 10 three-pointers, but at the key moment of the game, Paul killed the game with continuous shooting, which was not exactly the big killer of Durant's insoluble shots when the Warriors were in the Warriors?
According to the data provided by the media, the Warriors' three-point shooting ratio this season reached 43.6%, second only to the Jazz in the league, the proportion of basket shots was 33.7% ranked tenth in the league, the proportion of mid-range shots was only 22.7% ranked second in the league, only higher than the Rockets, and the Warriors' long-range two-point shot proportion was only 7.1% in the league, ranking sixth in the league, compared to the Rockets in the 2016-17 season, when the Rockets' three-point shooting ratio was the highest level in the league. The percentage of shots shots under the basket ranks seventh in the league, and the proportion of mid-range shots is only 18.4% of the lowest level in the league, compared to this season's Warriors and the Rockets of that year, is not very similar.
Also compared to the Suns this season three-point shots average only 30.5 times per game, this data ranks 28th in the league, that is, the third smallest team in the league, Paul and Booker are both masters of mid-range shooting, but also the biggest killer of their arsenal of weapons, but this season Curry's three-point and basket shots add up to 83%, the proportion of mid-range shots is 17% of the career-low, And Curry's long-range two-point shots are only 7% and the lowest career. As a comparison, let's take a look at Harden's data in the Rockets period, the proportion of three-point shots and basket shots has been higher than 80% for a long time, and the proportion of long-distance two-point shots has been less than 10% for a long time, and Curry's data this season has surpassed Harden, who pushed the Magic to the peak.
In this game between the Warriors and the Magic, they defeated the Magic with a three-point rain to destroy the decaying momentum, on the one hand, the Magic's defensive level is really poor, on the other hand, the Warriors' game is indeed accurate, but if according to the Warriors' current style of play, once they can't play on the inside line, and at the same time, when they encounter strict defense on the outside line and can't find shooting opportunities, what should they do?
In fact, the first meeting between the Suns and the Warriors this season is the best answer, that game the Warriors only hit 14 goals on 40-point shooting outside the three-point line, they scored 40 points on the inside line, and only got 4 points in the mid-range shooting, compared to the Suns in that game, the Mid-range shooting scored 18 points, that game The Warriors in the Sun's targeted defense, Curry could not find a good three-point shooting position, the result of the bare shot was a miserable three-point shooting rate, and the Suns' defense also blocked the Warriors' passing cooperation, Unable to play smooth offense, this game was one of the biggest challenges the Warriors have faced since the magic ball.
The reason why the Rockets that fell at the feet of the Warriors in a row have not gone far is because they are too superstitious about their own three-pointers, I believe that many Rockets fans must remember the scene of the seventh game of the 2018 Western Conference Finals, the Rockets lost 27 three-pointers in a row, when the Rockets were targeted by the Warriors' defense on the outside line, they did not adjust the offensive strategy, but blindly blocked the three-point feeling, barely shooting three points after constantly hitting iron, Durant's middle shot was like a dagger.
In the playoffs, the shooting is the most likely way to get you, because the opponent will try to limit the opportunity to give you three-point shots, and will try to block your basket under the basket, the shooting will become the most effective way to score, the Warriors and Kerr are dismissive of the Rockets' magic ball, but unconsciously the Warriors also embarked on the road of magic ball, it should be said that the Warriors are not deliberately pursuing magic ball tactics, but Curry is too confident in his three-point shots, Of course, Curry's three-point shooting is indeed unique in history, but in the playoffs, once they encounter targeted defense and bad hand, the Warriors may suffer a big loss.
Well, the above is the content of this issue of the program, like 6 points do not forget to point a point of attention, you can also long press like highly recommended, thank you for the support!
