Jazz challenges warriors
For the first time in his career, Steven Curry staged a whistle-blowing streak against his old rival, the Houston Rockets, leaving fans with precious memories. But winning the Rockets, which are the bottom number one in the West, will have to rely on Steven Curry's dead endeavor, which is enough to reflect how bad the Golden State Warriors have been in recent shape. At this time, the Phoenix Suns have won 6 consecutive wins, 3.5 wins ahead of the Warriors, which is considered to be the first place in the West, in such a situation, the Warriors must return to the track of winning streaks.
However, in this game, the Warriors ushered in a strong opponent, that is, the fourth-place Utah Jazz in the West. Despite Mitchell's absence, the strength of this team should not be underestimated. Klay Thompson will not play in this game, which is good news or bad news for today's Golden State Warriors, it is really difficult to evaluate.
The Warriors were nearly reversed
Steven Curry started with a very good feel, 3 of 5 shooting, 3 of 3 three-pointers, 8 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, without a single mistake, the Warriors also bombed 33 points under his leadership, taking a 4-point lead. Everyone thinks that this will be a night that belongs to Curry, but who would have thought that Curry is going high and low. After returning from the second quarter, Curry shot 1 of 5, hit only 1 layup, lost all 4 three-point shots, and only got 2 points and 1 rebound in a single quarter, and the Jazz narrowed the point difference to 1 point.
However, Stephen Curry did not believe in evil, and in the second half, he fought again, and he shot 1 of 7, 3 of 0 three-pointers, and lost both layups, with only 3 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists in a single quarter. Fortunately, Poole stood up and still led the Warriors to an eight-point lead. In the last quarter, the Jazz continued to chase, and everyone hoped that Curry could stand up and complete the redemption, but Curry shot 3 times, all three-pointers, all lost, and did not score a point, and the Jazz successfully equalized the score. Fortunately, Poole hit a key shot, and Looney played 2+1 under the basket to help the team beat the Jazz 94-92.
Curry is self-defeating
In such a game, Curry shot 5 of 20, 1 of 13 from three-point range, and only had 13 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, which was a very bad performance. In the history of the NBA, there were only 6 players who had conceded more than 12 three-pointers in a single game, and the teams of these players eventually lost all of them, and the Warriors led by Stephen Curry eventually won the game. Curry himself may not have thought that such a bad night would be self-defeating to become the first in NBA history, and he really didn't know whether to grieve or celebrate.
It is worth mentioning that Curry's worst 6-game shooting performance of his career has won 5 seats this season, and this game is in fifth place. So far in January, Curry has shot 35 of 117 three-pointers, dropping to 29.9 percent, the worst monthly three-point performance of Curry's career so far.
13-of-13 from three-point range! Curry's slump night, but Cole sent praise: the best performance. In this case, Kerr praised Curry by name, because Curry only had 1 turnover in this game and only 6 in the past 4 games. Kerr said Curry's six turnovers in his last four games should be headlines, not 1 of 13 from three-point range. And Curry's physical form looks great, he played his best outside of the shooting. He looked fine, and I didn't feel that Curry was in a bit of a hurry.
