The NBA regular season ushered in a focus battle, the Warriors sat at home to meet the Cavaliers, the two teams are the old opponents of the finals in the past, but it is not human to play the Cavaliers again, and this game will be the first game for Clay to return after 941 days, so it has aroused great concern, the Chase Center is crowded early, and fans hope to witness Clay's return here. However, after the opening, Clay drove high and low, but Curry continued to shoot on the outside line to steal the limelight, and Dream Green was injured before the game and left the field in 7 seconds.
In this game, Klay returned directly into the starting lineup, Kerr sent Curry, Clay, Wiggins, Dream Green and Rooney's starting lineup, and because Dream Green was injured near the start, he directly used foul tactics to replace himself after he came on the stage to wait for the jump to be completed. Only to see him slowly walk to Garland, who got the ball in the backcourt, and then slapped him, the referee blew a foul, and chased the dream directly by Anderson. From the time he started and went off, it was only 7 seconds. Because this time there was an injury near the start of the game, the Warriors did not have time to change the starting lineup, which was the scene.
Dream's injury exit has a big impact on the Warriors, but the focus of this game is Clay, and how he performs after the debut is what fans are most concerned about. Shortly after the opening, Clay gave the home fans a huge surprise. After playing only 40 seconds in the first quarter, Klay Thompson ushered in the first point after his comeback, he ran to the top of the arc in the bottom corner of the left to receive the ball, and then he rushed directly into the basket with the ball, and with an unconventional throw, he got the first point after the comeback, and the Chase center instantly fell into a boil, and the applause and cheers crossed together, making the whole arena instantly enter a climax.
However, I thought that this throwing shot would give Clay a good start, but unfortunately, he did not hit the ball outside the 3-point line for a long time, and it was obvious that his shooting feel had not fully recovered, and he still needed to re-adapt to the rhythm of the court. In the first quarter, Clay played 4 minutes and 23 seconds to be replaced, and before going off the field, he shot 1 of 5 and 3 of 3 from three to score 2 points. Although such statistics are not ideal, it is possible to see Klay return has made Warriors fans feel satisfied, and I believe that as the game progresses, Klay's state will gradually return.
Clay's poor shooting after his comeback made the fans a little disappointed, but soon, Curry performed with a 3-point performance of the ball cannon, once again driving the home field crazy. Curry opened the game with a fiery feel, 4 consecutive 3-pointers, and there are also difficult catches after the direct shot without adjustment, while Curry played 9 minutes in the first quarter, 4 of 5, 5 of 4, 2 of 2 free throws, contributed 14 points and 2 rebounds, showing an extremely good state.
