Downs' post-match high emotional intelligence speech congratulated old friends, "Splash Brothers" set another record; Embiid continued his magical performance, "Thick Eyebrows" 14 of 21 cut 31 points
"Brother Goji" people are refreshed every time they are happy, and Curry's state is revived
"I'm not at all worried about Stephen's three-point performance this past month, and I know Stephen is one of the best players in the league and he's going to shoot a whole bunch of three-pointers." In a post-game interview with the 124-115 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves, Kerr continued to export his high emotional intelligence speech, without the slightest praise for his apprentice.
After a break, Stephen Curry seemed to be relieved of his fatigue, and he shot two long-range three-pointers in the first quarter. The Timberwolves' defense seemed to be completely messed up, and they began to pour a lot of defensive pressure on Curry, and the rest of the Warriors got a lot of easy scoring opportunities, which is the way the Warriors want to play the game. In addition to Curry himself scoring 29 points on 10-of-20 shooting, the Warriors have three players who score more than 18 points.
Throughout the game, Curry and Klay hit a total of 11 three-pointers, more than the Timberwolves combined. At the same time, this is also the 36th time that the "Splash Brothers" have hit at least five three-pointers in a single game, which is 16 more than the second place in this record.
Whether it's because of the injuries of other players, the huge flow of traffic in the Bay Area, or the improvement of his personal level. "Human 18 Points Essence" - Andrew Wiggins was officially announced by the NBA as a starter to be a Western Conference All-Star, and from the simple smile on his face, you can see how happy he really is.
Of course, what moved me the most was a passage that Anthony Downs said in the post-game interview: "This result is beautiful, we have fought together, I just want to see his efforts rewarded, this time the All-Star I also voted for him...."Superimposed on the BUFF that must explode every time he plays his old club, Wiggins also played very well. He hit consecutive three-pointers at the start of the first quarter, made 12 shots in the entire game, conceded only 5 goals, scored 19 points on 5-of-8 three-point shooting, and the plus-minus of +18 was also the highest in the game.
James is absent, davis and Embiid are in opposition
The Los Angeles Lakers continued their six-game trip to the East, and after beating the single-core Nets by 10 points, the Los Angeles giants rushed to Philadelphia to challenge the fifth-placed 76ers in the East. The 76ers have been in very good form lately, winning 70 percent of their last 10 games. Embiid, who has just officially become an All-Star starter, also played the highest performance in his career.
In the past four games, the "Emperor" has played a total of 128 minutes, scored a total of 170 points, and scored at least 35 points and 10 rebounds in four consecutive games, making him the fourth player to achieve this record since 1976. And counting the 105-87 win over the Lakers, Embiid has scored at least 25 points in 16 consecutive games, ranking second in the history of the 76ers, behind Iverson.
The biggest attraction of this game is the matchup between Anthony Davis and Joel Embiid. Davis weighs less, moves faster, has better balllessness, and Embiid really has a hard time keeping up with him. Embiid, on the other hand, is physically strong, has better skills and can handle the ball, taking into account the individual attack while also driving teammates. The fly in the ointment is that the long-range shooting performance of these two players is indeed average. Davis scored 4 of 11 shots outside the paint and Embiid made nine shots in the same area, losing six of them.
The few places where the Lakers do better are their rebounds and blocks. In the case of the overall interior strength is significantly lower than the opponent, the Lakers have more rebounds. Especially in frontcourt rebounds, the Lakers are a full three times the opponent. Stanley Johnson and Anthony Davis performed well on the cover, giving a total of 7 blocks, which is also higher than the presence of opponents.
Where it is not done well, there are indeed too many. You can clearly see that in this game, without James, the whole team's offense is even more disorderly. Without a good, stable outside ball carrier combing the offense, Munch was promoted to start, with just 3 of 13 shooting, as if returning to his true level. Wei Shao is more in the conversion of attacks, the right 45 ° attack on the upper score, the impact on the game is indeed limited. The Lakers had fewer than 20 assists in the entire game, a full 5 fewer than last season's average.
The Lakers' defense on the three-point line is particularly poor, especially in the opposing conversion offense, often ambushing shooters on the 3-point line, and there are also problems with strategy, often putting too much pressure on the 76ers' outside ball carriers and ignoring the role players' outside three-pointers. From the data sheet, the 76ers' three-point shooting rate in the entire game seems to be only 37%. However, if you leave the fourth quarter aside, the 76ers' three-point shooting rate can reach 45%, which is very undeserved.
