On January 14, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season continued. In a battle of focus today, the Warriors, who have won the championship this season, are taking on the defending champion Bucks on the road. The game was a game of strength and weakness from the start, with the Warriors trailing by as many as 39 points at most, and eventually losing to their opponents 99-118, suffering a disastrous defeat.
Throughout the game, the Warriors played poorly across the team, Curry only had 12 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists on 4-of-11 shooting, including 6-of-6 three-pointers, Payton left the court early due to injury, Looney had 7 points and 7 rebounds, Thompson scored 11 points on 3-of-11 shooting, Poole scored 9 points on 2-of-7 shooting, and only Wiggins performed normally, with 16 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist.
It must be admitted that the Warriors are in the midst of their toughest period of the season recently, losing four of their last five games. This also highlights the importance of a warrior player from another level, and he is Green. Counting today's game, Green has missed a total of 7 games this season, and the Warriors' record is only 2 wins and 5 losses, with a win rate of 28.6%, while in the games green played, the Warriors recorded 28 wins and 6 losses, a winning percentage of 82.3%.
(Note, in the Warriors' win over the Cavaliers, Green left the court after jumping the ball, but according to the NBA's official statistics rules, this game is still considered Green's play.) ）
It has to be said that in today's Warriors team, Green's role is really irreplaceable. So far this season, Green has averaged 29.9 minutes per game, averaging 7.9 points, 7.6 rebounds, 7.4 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.2 blocks, shooting 53.7 percent from the field.
It can be seen that Green plays a vital role at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends. He is not only the hub of the Warriors' offensive end, but also the Warriors' defensive gate. In the NBA's official ranking of the best defensive players, Green is also currently at the top of the list, which also proves Green's role from another level.
