The Golden State Warriors, who are the first in the league, seem to be showing fatigue, and Stephen Curry's poor shooting feel makes the team taste the loss. In two consecutive games, Curry's shooting percentage was extremely bad, one was narrowly won by Poole and Wiggins, and the other was a 17-point defeat. I have to say that if the Warriors want to win and want to keep the first place in the league, then Stephen Curry must get back to form as soon as possible. However, in this game against the second-to-last game in the West, the New Orleans Pelicans, Curry chose to take a break.
Of course, there is Also Andrew Wiggins, as the league's champion, to this day, has not yet entered the All-Star stage, but this season, Wiggins has a good chance, the current vote, Wiggins is also the fourth highest Western Frontcourt player, behind James, Jokic and George.
Without Stephen Curry, Wiggins is naturally the team's number one offensive player, with 7 points, 1 rebound, 1 steal and 1 block in the first quarter, although only 6 shots and 2 of 6 shots, but still show Wiggins's offensive desire. Poole, who came to the starting lineup, did not score a single point on 3-of-0 shooting, but Bjelica on the bench had 5 points and 1 rebound, the Warriors still scored 22 points in the first quarter, and the Pelicans only scored 16 points, including Ingram with 6 points and 1 rebound. After returning from the second quarter, Ingram led the team to catch up.
The Warriors' bench, there are always people standing up, Cumminga and Moody, Bjelica and Lee, one after another to help the Warriors maintain the lead. Wiggins then returned to the field and scored consecutively in the penalty area, not giving in to Ingram. However, Clark transformed into a Surprise Soldier and directly stopped the Warriors with a three-point shot. After returning from the timeout, Ingram committed a foul with two free throws, followed by two more goals, one scoring 10 straight over the Warriors. Wiggins had no choice but to hold the ball again, and hit a layup against Varan, Varan threw a shot in response, but Kerr thought it was a step and was very dissatisfied with the referee.
After a bird's talk, the referee did not hesitate to give a technical foul, unfortunately Ingram failed to take the penalty. The Warriors gave Wiggins the final offense, once again burst into the box, turned around and missed a jump shot, and at the end of the half, the Warriors trailed the Pelicans by one point 46-47.
Curry is not there, Wiggins is also a small outbreak, half-time 10 shots 5 to get 13 points, 1 rebound, 1 steal 1 block data, unfortunately not enough ball, I have to say that the Warriors want to win this game, they must let Wiggins attack more, after all, in this lineup, there are only andrew Wiggins players with absolute killing ability. Damian Lee also had eight points, two rebounds and two assists, Bjelica had seven points, one rebound and one assist, and Poole had a cold hand and did not score a point on 0-of-7 shooting in the first half.
Ingram once again carried the team, especially in the second quarter, with 13 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, and at the end of halftime, he had 19 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists on 8-of-13 shooting, and his personal performance was impeccable. But apart from Ingram, the Pelicans have no one else to stand up, and the second highest scorer is Temple, with 5 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists, Hart and Varan, Jones and Walker, all of whom only scored 4 points. Although the Pelicans went from trailing by 11 points in the first half, it was not so easy to win this game.
