On December 14, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Pacers lost to the Warriors 100-102. For Warriors fans, the game can be described in one sentence: "an unacceptable process, and an acceptable outcome." "Three-pointers of 5 of 15, 8 of 20, a total of 26 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, and 7 turnovers, Curry's performance today, can only be described as general. But compared to the previous six games in December, there has been some improvement, but today the Warriors are a bit sluggish across the team, and this slump in the game is slow defense, simple offense, and playing with the rhythm of the opponent. After the Warriors won, Curry responded positively to the three-point topic, Green also praised Curry, and Kerr explained the reason for the Warriors' downturn.
Counting the five three-pointers of the game, Curry is only 2 points away from surpassing Ray Allen's three-point record and only 1 point away from equaling Ray Allen's three-point record, and in an interview, Curry bluntly said: "I am lucky, I know how much effort we have put into it." But as I said before, what should come is always coming. I'm happy to be able to stay in shape in the game and respect the great shooters in NBA history, including myself. Now I'm going to enjoy the moment because I haven't loved a thing so much in a long time. "In my opinion, since entering December, from playing the Blazers, to the 76ers, to today's opponent Pacers, the topic of Ray Allen's record has always been a haunting demon for Curry, saying that it doesn't matter, it's impossible, many times Curry's shot is not reasonable, but it is understandable. In this case, the Warriors' offensive efficiency decline is reasonable.
Green was also asked about Curry's record-breaking after the game, and Green said: "Before the game you think 'I can't pass every ball to Curry', but in the game, you still think about finding him as much as possible. When this thing is over, I will be very happy. In the last few games, we have faced opponents who have fallen into good positions, and we have had too many turnovers and fouls to play the conversion opportunities we wanted. And finally Green added: "I think Curry will score 1,000 more three-pointers in his career than Ray Allen, and I believe he can." "As Green said, it's true that in recent games, Green, including Poole, Anderson on the bench, has been trying to give Curry the ball, whether it's a chance or not, which makes it easy for opponents to deal with. By the time Curry broke Ray Allen's record, it was time to put an end to the matter.
In an interview after the game, a reporter asked how to meet Curry's three-point record tomorrow, Cole: "Tomorrow Curry will be off. This also caused laughter from the audience. But Kerr's subsequent remarks were very rational: "I think Curry has been pushing too hard in the last few games, he has been thinking about that record, and after he broke that record, the team and himself can breathe a sigh of relief." He also knew he needed more passes, easier handling of the ball, but he was a little too hard, many shots were out of rhythm, and we all understood him. In fact, what Kerr wants to express is that it is too late, as early as after the game with the Blazers, Curry himself said in an interview that everything went naturally, but he did not do it, but carried a heavy burden. Of course, this is also the main reason why the Warriors have had a bad time in recent games.
Of course, in these games, the Warriors also have a lot to gain, such as Green's determination to attack the basket with the ball, such as Looney's ability to grasp opportunities has also improved. In the bench, Porter's play is the most stable, in comparison, Bjelica is heavy attack and light defense, and Damian Lee is not in the state of attack and defense. In this case, I personally feel that Cole should give Anderson, Potter, Payton Jr. more time, and others. In addition, Wiggins' performance has slowly become mediocre after entering December, and he should take more responsibility.
In addition, during the Hornets live broadcast, Curry's father, Dell Curry (Hornets game commentary), also said that he would go to New York tomorrow to witness Curry's record-breaking historic moment, which is really the pride of the old father. According to the Warriors reporter, tomorrow's back-to-back game between the Warriors and the Knicks is broadcast live in the United States, in addition to the legendary shooter Reggie Miller will serve as the sideline commentator, it is expected that Ray Allen will come to the scene to witness the moment when Curry broke the record.
