The NBA regular season continues, and today the Warriors are at home to face the Heat. In the end, they defeated the Heat 115:108 to win two consecutive games and continue to consolidate their position as the number one in the league. Curry didn't fare well in the game, scoring just nine points on 3-of-17 shooting, but delivering 10 assists. Off the bench, Jordan Poole completed a personal explosion, scoring 32 points and 5 assists in just 26 minutes of playing, including 9 shots and 5 verticals from outside the three-point line. Wiggins had 22 points, six rebounds and four assists.
Butler accidentally slipped to his ankle during a game against the Warriors today and was eventually helped off the court by a player. The Heat were also missing a core on the offensive end after Butler was missing. Lowry also received five fouls early. In the end, the Heat still could not withstand the Warriors' offensive wave in the fourth quarter, and the road was lost.
Today's game undoubtedly made Jordan Poole a hero to the Warriors' ability to win, and Curry's feel outside the three-point line today is very sluggish, with only 1 of 10 shots in the whole game. In curry's downturn, Jordan Poole stepped forward in time, and the team gradually distributed the ball to Jordan Poole on the offensive end, allowing him to complete the attack autonomously.
Even today, when Curry played to the final critical moment, he repeatedly handed the ball to Jordan Pooler, and he chose to silently pull aside. In today's situation where Curry's hand is not good, he did not choose to shoot strongly at key moments, or handed over to players with better hands to attack. It also reflects the Warriors' consistent offensive policy, which is that when a player plays extremely well, he becomes the core of the court, and the ball will revolve around him, whether he is a starter or a substitute.
When Thompson returns, Jordan Poole will naturally return to the second team, and he may have a better performance on the bench. The bench will further reduce his defensive intensity compared to the starting lineup. Jordan Pooler will be better able to show his aggressiveness on the offensive end and his projection ability.
Today's game makes us fully realize that the Warriors are a team that plays team basketball to the extreme, even if Curry plays so badly, they can still beat the resilient Heat, and the reason why the Warriors can firmly sit in the league's first position this season is largely because their lineup depth is thick enough, which is also their capital for the championship this year.
