Can the Warriors compete for the title? Thompson made a stunning debut after his comeback, but the back of the game was not in good shape!

Original/Oxygen is a metro

On Jan. 17, the Warriors lost to the Timberwolves. In this game, Curry and Green were absent, Thompson played, but the state was average, only 5 of 14 shots, 3 of 8 three-pointers, 13 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal. When Thompson is healthy, single-core team leadership is not enough, he is suitable for playing auxiliary, when the tactical boss is not too big a ceiling, not to mention that he has not played for more than two years.

Thompson's debut after his comeback was stunning, but the state of the game behind him was not good, which once again made the outside world doubt, can the Warriors still compete for the championship? Once Curry is targeted in the playoffs, Green lacks points, and Thompson doesn't, the Warriors are hanging. After all, players such as Poole and Wiggins are basically discounted in the playoffs, and they need Curry and Green to play more in order to successfully launch.

Despite the Warriors' recent lack of stability, O'Neal still believes that the Warriors can win the championship, and he even set up a flag: if the solar energy wins the Warriors in the playoffs, he will live naked! It's quite a big game, and the sun is still lying guns. You know, the Suns reached the Finals last season, Paul was at the top of the FMVP probability list, and Booker also played a performance that was considered to be more in line with the league's first quarterback than Harden. The Suns are currently top of the league, and they've also beaten the Warriors.

In addition, the Sun is also O'Neill's old club, but O'Neill does not give face at all. O'Neill put it this way on the January 17 show: If Solar wins the Warriors in this year's playoffs, I'll strip naked, write the Suns' team name on my ass, run two blocks naked, and stream it online. O'Neal is sure that the Warriors and Suns will meet in the playoffs — in the ranking of these two teams, it's basically the Western Conference Finals — and that the Warriors will win the Suns.

Whether the Warriors can enter the Western Conference Finals as O'Neal expects, and beat the Suns in the Western Conference Finals to reach the Finals, it will depend on their next performance. Curry has been in a slump for more than a month, and has been in the regular season, and the Warriors' playoff prospects are obviously not optimistic. Green is an important player for the Warriors, and he can help Curry. But when Curry didn't do well, Green didn't miss many games.

The Warriors' last magic weapon is the comeback Thompson. Thompson hasn't recovered yet, but there are more than thirty games left in the regular season, enough for Thompson to adjust. Thompson did not have the domineering appearance of his comeback debut after leading the team to lose to the Timberwolves, and analyzed the situation from the reality. Thompson said he needs to be patient now and do his best to play. The past two years have taught themselves what patience is. Thompson also said he couldn't believe something, such as saying he wanted to play for 40 minutes, but he wasn't an expert and had to do as he was told. Thompson did not recover, the Warriors system was destroyed, and with Curry's average performance on the floor, the Warriors' momentum was not as strong as it was at the beginning of the season.
