On January 4, Beijing time, the Golden State Warriors sat at home to meet the Miami Heat. The Warriors' Jordan Poole came off the bench for the game with 32 points and five assists, and Andrew Wiggins also had 22 points and six rebounds, and the Golden State Warriors eventually won 115-108 against the uneven Miami Heat.
Payton had 14 points and five rebounds, Bjelica and Porter each had 10 points, and Dream Green had five points, eight rebounds and 13 assists.
In this campaign, Stephen Curry played crazy and had no personal offensive status, he played 32 minutes, hit only 3 goals in 17 shots, and was 1 of 10 outside the three-point line, contributing 9 points, 3 boards, 10 assists and 1 block data. Curry scored just 9 points! Curry's record of scoring double figures in 97 consecutive games is over!
However, the Warriors won with Curry doing so badly, and apparently Curry had to thank Poole today.
'The game was significant, we needed his 32 points and early Stephen had foul trouble and that changed my rotation. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said, "Poole has become our key player and he will continue to be key to our bench. ”
Heat star Jimmy Butler was helped off the field with a right ankle injury with 3:14 left in the third quarter. Head coach Eric Spoolstra looked worried because the team's current squad was already weak. Butler had 22 points, five rebounds and three assists.
Still, the Heat played tenaciously. Their role players also had highlights, such as Kyle Gay with 14 points and Joltsevin with 5 points and 17 rebounds.
Speaking about Poole's rebound tonight, Chasing Dream said: "It's great, obviously Poole will be more of a sixth man on the team in the future, but he handles it well. When I played the Jazz, I was a little upset with him, I don't think he played aggressively enough, tonight is completely different. Although his role has changed, I still have a lot of expectations for him, I know how hard he works behind his back, and he has gained my expectations of him. Tonight everything was in his control, the shooting choices, the tandem teams were doing a great job. ”
Last season, the Warriors relied on Curry alone, and Curry also picked up a scoring champion, but the team could only play the playoffs. This season, the Warriors became the team with the best record in the league, vaguely like ztex. The Warriors' reliance on Curry is not false, but it's not all. Curry's initial performance was MVP level, but what about Curry's recent performance? Overall shooting percentage plummeted, dropping to around 33 percent in the last four games. He also started the game rather badly, after playing iron on the outside, he was blown twice fouled in half a minute, and was forced to go off the bench after playing less than three minutes. Curry didn't let the Warriors lose.
Curry's greatness is not only in scoring, he is also a good core point guard. He can also pass the ball, can assist, and it is precisely the depth of the team composed of Poole, Wiggins, Peton Jr., and Bjelica that gives the Warriors the same fault tolerance rate as in 2014-2015, and does not rely on Curry alone.
"The depth of our team is that no matter who is not in good shape, there will always be someone who comes forward. We play with this mentality, everyone knows how to play, can contribute to the game, which is why we can win so often. Wiggins said.
