The NBA regular season continues, and the Warriors will continue their own road trip. The day after tomorrow they will play away to the Celtics. Recently, Celtics head coach Uduka also talked about the Warriors. His conversation was enough to show that he was very thorough in his study of the Warriors' playing style.
Uduka revealed in advance their strategy to defend Curry. Uduka believes that it is necessary to give Curry more physical confrontation and make him hesitant in the game, only in this way can he better limit Curry. And Uduka also talked about his understanding of the Warriors' tactical system.
Uduka thinks the Warriors have a lot of coordination to create three-point shooting opportunities for Curry, but you can't always be jealous of their projections from outside the three-point line and ignore their scores from other positions. Uduka believes that many of the Warriors' balls are taking advantage of their attraction from outside the three-point line, including Curry's ability to contain and create opportunities on the inside. The Warriors have a large number of inside scores because opponents are too jealous of the Warriors' outside shooting three-point shots. So Uduka thinks it's also important to protect the penalty area when defending the Warriors.
Uduka's expression is clearly a very thorough understanding of the Warriors' tactics. What he really counted was to study the Warriors well. In fact, in the league, not only did he study the Warriors very thoroughly, but the head coaches of most teams in the league would carefully study the Warriors' offense. But when they really played, they couldn't better limit the Warriors. On the one hand, it is because some teams are not staffed, and on the other hand, it is because the Warriors' ability to adjust the scene is too strong.
So although Uduka has revealed in advance his defensive style for Curry and has a very thorough understanding of the Warriors' offense, whether he can defend it when he really fights still has to play a question mark. Many team coaches know that the Warriors are going to play a certain tactic, but they still can't defend it. This is largely because the players on the pitch are unable to execute the coach's intentions. After all, it is the players who play on the field, not the coaches. Coaches are somewhat on paper.
The Warriors are strong because they have a very complex tactical system. This level of complexity requires the defender to use his brain on the defensive end. It's not enough to fight the Warriors on a physical level, and IQ also has to keep up. So the defensive Warriors are very tired, physically and mentally exhausted.
