Today, the NBA regular season continues, with the Golden State Warriors continuing their road trip to challenge the Philadelphia 76ers. According to the normal strength comparison, the Warriors should be able to beat the 76ers, but they eventually lost 93-102, which was a disappointing result.
Curry played worse in this game, scoring only 18 points on 6-of-20 shooting, grabbing nine rebounds and five assists, and shooting 3-of-14 from beyond the three-point line. The 76ers, by contrast, are much stronger, shooting 26 points and nine rebounds throughout the game, shooting 7-of-16 from the field and delivering two steals.
Obviously, the Warriors' winning streak has slowed down a bit recently, and the whole team has experienced some fatigue. In addition, the Warriors have focused on Curry's record-breaking records. Curry has a few three-pointers left to break Ray Allen's NBA career three-point shooting record, so warriors players are trying to give Curry the ball and help him cover, hoping that Curry will break the record sooner.
But if you want to be fast, you can't reach it, and the more anxious Curry is, the more he can't get in. Taking up too much of the shot, Curry will not only lose the shooting rhythm himself, but also make the Warriors teammates unable to find the offensive feeling, and the whole team will be difficult to win.
Now it seems that in fact, Curry can not be obsessed with breaking records, he can completely go with the flow. In addition, now that the Warriors' players are starting to fatigue and the style of play is slowly being eaten by opponents, it needs to bring some freshness. Today the Warriors announced the second time they have sent Thompson to the NBA Development League, training with the Santa Cruz Warriors.
I believe that Thompson is not far from returning from injury, and the Warriors really need a fresh force now.
