On January 14, Beijing time, the Golden State Warriors challenged the Bucks on the road. This game made people feel that the Warriors were not in shape at the beginning, not only was Klay in bad shape, but Curry's last few games were not in good shape. The whole person didn't look very excited, shooting just over thirty percent.
Curry's state in this game is still not very good, I don't know if the Splash Brothers have transmitted the bad state to the whole team, and the other players of the Warriors are in a worse state. The Warriors lost 39 points at halftime, the biggest score for the Warriors to trail at halftime and the Warriors' biggest half-time point difference since 1962. After the Warriors' fiasco with the Bucks, the alphabet brotherle blossomed, but it is estimated that the laughter is early, and the NBA championship is not simple!
With halfway through the second quarter, the Warriors scored only 28 points, which is more than that in previous Warriors games. Brother Alphabet was also very happy to see the game so easy to play the Warriors, and directly blossomed on the court. At the same time, the Nets also lost today, Harden alone, had to accept a big defeat, but the Nets are still a strong opponent on the road to defending the Bucks.
In addition to the Nets, the entire NBA league can cause trouble for the Bucks is the Warriors. During this season's game, the Warriors became the league number one under Curry's leadership, which made the Bucks feel somewhat threatened. From the perspective of the entire league now, only the Warriors may pose a threat to the Bucks' championship defense path. The Warriors are likely to reach the Finals to compete with the Bucks. In this context, the Bucks can win such a big score, which naturally makes the alphabet brother and the Bucks team feel very happy.
But in fact, the alphabet brother may be too happy too soon. This game is certainly not the true level of the Warriors, and if the Warriors are at this level, then they will not be able to achieve the number one position in the league. The NBA schedule is very long, and in the space of half a year, the team needs to play consecutive games, and no team can maintain a very high level under such a game intensity. Winning more than 70 games a year like the Warriors and Bulls is almost impossible. The last few games have been at a time when the Warriors are at a relatively low ebb.
Personal speculation is that this year's Finals will most likely be between the Warriors and bucks. The Warriors now have almost no opponents in the West, and while the Suns have performed well in the regular season, the Warriors' experience and strength are clearly above the Suns after entering the playoffs.
Although the Eastern Conference has better results for the Bulls and Nets, the comprehensive strength of the defending champions is still above them. If the Warriors play the Finals against the Bucks, the Warriors' projection ability is something that the Warriors can't defend. Their inside players are indeed relatively strong, but their defensive ability of outside players is certainly not able to cope with the attack of the Splash Brothers.
On the defensive end, as long as the Warriors can cut off the connection between the alphabet brother and others, then even if it can't completely block their scoring impact, at least it can reduce the momentum of their scoring. At the very least, it won't be as easy for the Bucks to win as this game.
