On January 7, Beijing time, NBA reporter Chalania announced the results of the all-star fan voting so far, Stephen Curry 2584623 votes in the West, Kevin Durant 2360435 votes in the East. This is the recognition of the fans for Duku's two superstars, and the MVP list at the beginning of the season is also the two people who "love and kill each other", but after entering December, Curry's performance is lower, Durant enters the health and safety agreement, and alphabet brothers, Jokic, DeRozan, James and others have emerged.
After the defeat to the Lone Rangers, Cole said curry suffered a quadriceps contusion during the game and that he would most likely not play back-to-back vs Pelicans. Curry did take a break on Jan. 1, and Cole said curry felt pain in his left quadriceps and hoped he would play Sunday against the Cavaliers. It looks like Curry is likely to miss multiple games in a row.
Curry made it 5-of-24 and 1-of-9 from three-pointers against the Lone Rangers; 3-of-17 against the Nuggets, 1 of 10 from three-point range, and 8-of-41 from both games + 2-of-19 from three-point range, setting a career record for the lowest shooting percentage (20 percent) in two consecutive games. But Curry's slump is no longer just these two games.
In the past 15 games, Curry averaged 25.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 3.7 turnovers in 35.4 minutes per game, shooting 37.8%, shooting 34.6% from three-point range, and averaging 4.7 three-pointers per game. The turnover rate is very high, the scoring efficiency is very low, the last game to play the lone ranger can be said that Curry was affected by injuries, but the last 15 games Curry is also sluggish, which shows that it is a state problem, or that the opponent's targeted defense has played an effect.
You'll find Curry averaging the second-highest career average of 20.6 shots per game this season, shooting a career-low 41.9 percent (except for only five seasons in the 19-20 season), and a career low of 38.5 percent from three-point range. His state compared to last season's gap has come out.
This season's Curry has set all-time three-point records, breaking the 3,000 three-point mark and hitting 160 consecutive three-point shots, he has been praised by the media from all sides, and Curry's mentality may also have some impact under these praises. At present, Curry should go to the rotation, whether he is injured or not, he should take a break, his competitive state is related to how far this Warriors can go in the playoffs, and it is difficult to say that even if the regular season is the first in the league to enter the playoffs.
