Beijing time on January 4, the NBA regular season continued, the Warriors finally won the rival Heat after a hard battle, this game, the Warriors star Curry still did not come out of the recent bad state, the whole game he played 32 minutes, 17 shots 3, including 10 three-pointers 10 shots, free throws 2 of 2, got 9 points, 3 rebounds, 10 assists and 1 block.
But without Curry's play, the Warriors can still win, and it has been more than once, so why is that? First of all, the first reason is that the warriors' other two leaders, Wiggins and Dream Green, have played very steadily this season, and the second reason is that young player Poole played, and in today's game against the Heat, youngster Jordan Poole played 26 minutes off the bench, with 32 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists, shooting 12 of 17. His performance was also praised by Dream Green: "Poole's performance today was really wonderful. ”
So far, Poole has averaged 29 minutes per game, averaging 18.3 points per game, and the shooting percentage is also very impressive, effectively making up for Curry's poor offensive firepower, it can be said that the reason why the Warriors can maintain the league's first record this season is very much related to Poole's firepower support.
For Poole's excellent performance, compared to Curry's slump of 9 points in a single game, there are even Warriors fans who ridicule and let Curry play as a substitute for Poole.
