The loss of the ball is like going back to last season, the sky is falling apart, the half is out of suspense, and the second half is directly reduced to garbage time! How to say it? Although the Warriors are missing a Green, but not to lose 39 points at halftime, this ball loss is not the norm of the Warriors this season, but the Warriors have been a bit "magic" in recent times! The biggest magic is nothing else, it's a three-pointer! At the beginning of the season, the Warriors' three-point shots were too smooth, and everyone shot everyone shot everyone, which led to the illusion that the Warriors' offensive firepower was very strong, and many games directly killed opponents by three points.
But the three-pointer thing is still very good to see the state and feel, this time Porter is not accurate, Poole is not accurate, Bjelica is not allowed, these people are not allowed to lead to a result, that is, the opponent can pinch Curry, plus Curry is not so accurate, so this time the Warriors' offense began to have problems. That is, if the three points are not scored, the team will be difficult to score, the Warriors' offensive efficiency has fallen to the top ten of the league, and the last few games have been the second-to-last position in the league. So if you can't shoot three points, the Warriors are not warriors. On the other hand, the Bucks defeated the Warriors head-on with three points!
Another is that Cole is somewhat paranoid about the splash brothers' combination, to be precise, paranoid about Thompson! Tang Shen came back three times, the Warriors' tactics in three consecutive games are tailor-made for Thompson, and the beginning of each game is to let Thompson shoot two or three times first, and many times the Warriors will immediately fall into passivity at the beginning, and they will be about 10 points behind. At this time, Curry was anxious again, and began to try the outside line to go far three points, high difficult three points, and the probability of this three-point advance was definitely less than the probability of not entering. Once this ball can't be thrown, the opponent grabs it and fights back, and the first quarter of the game can easily lose more than ten points in less than 6 minutes, and can only rely on the rotation lineup to slowly chase points!
And it's clear that the Warriors' style of play has also changed, what was the previous tactic? The inside line gives Curry a block, the outside line gives Curry cover, and then plays a pass cut, plays more tactical coordination, gives Curry more chances to catch the ball, and plays some easy balls! But now when Thompson inexplicably began to attack with the ball, the Warriors were a bit chaotic, and Kerr seemed to want to keep playing the cooperation between Curry and Thompson, but it was clear that the deterrent after Thompson held the ball was not the deterrent of running without the ball and catching the ball. Once these two people could not run, the opponent stared at death. But more importantly, it has become difficult to deal with the library after being clipped!
Defensive teams will still choose to pack Curry, even if Thompson is now back. When it is clear that Curry was caught in the pinch after the less Green point to deal with the ball is not easy to handle, generally speaking, can only return to Rooney or Iguodala, Rooney does not have the ability to handle the ball in detail, as for Iguodala, many times the ball can not be transferred out at the first time, he is just more tacit when he is present with Little Payton! Therefore, Curry is wrapped up a lot of times not to say that his teammates can't shoot into the empty position, but that his ball can't be given out at the first time, and after the ball is given, the opponent is immediately rotating to make up for the defense, and the Warriors' shooting opportunity is fleeting!
The Warriors are indeed a systematic team, but what is this system? It is to make Curry play comfortably, let Curry shoot more three-pointers, as long as the Warriors' space can be opened, but now Curry's point is not only uncomfortable and very difficult, every game has a large number of bags and assist defense, when Curry is locked and there are some extremely difficult high difficult three-point shots at the same time, the Warriors are still not good to score! At the beginning of the season, Curry also had some games that were sluggish, but the Warriors could win. Why is that? It's because the Warriors hit the ball to other points, there is Poole to replace Curry, there is Green to respond, but now Poole has not only become a substitute, Green has not been able to return, the Warriors want to lose is very difficult.
