On February 8, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued to unfold, and the Warriors challenged the Thunder away. From the ranking of the two sides, the gap in strength is still a bit large, but the Thunder still caused trouble for the Warriors at the beginning, but in the second quarter, the Warriors bombed 36 points in a single quarter, pulled the score apart, and relied on Thompson and Curry's three-pointers in the last quarter to help the team lock up the victory. In the end, the Warriors defeated the Thunder 110-98 and won nine straight.
In this game, the Warriors adjusted their starting lineup, Porter returned from injury to the starting lineup, and rookie Moody returned to the bench. Veteran Iguodala also returned, but unfortunately only played for 5 minutes before the situation appeared again and withdrew from the game again.
During the game, the Warriors did not play very easily, mainly because they felt a little sluggish this time, and they did not pull the point difference away, leading by 10 points at halftime. In the second half, there has been no opening of the point difference, the Thunder have been clinging to the score, in the last quarter to see the hope of reversal, but unfortunately the Splash Brothers hit a three-point shot, the point difference was widened, and the game lost suspense.
In this campaign, the Warriors played average as a whole team, shooting exactly 50% and shooting only 34.9% from three-point range, which is why they have not been able to open up the point difference. The team had five players in double figures, the highest being Klay Thompson with 21 points; Curry 18 points, 9 rebounds and 10 assists, Wiggins 15 points, Poole on the bench 11 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists, and Cummingga 16 points.
Thompson's playing time limit has reached 30 minutes after many games, and this time Kerr let him play 29 minutes and hit a key three-pointer in the final moment to help the team seal the victory. After hitting the three-pointer, Thompson shouted "This is my house" on the road! ”。 I believe that Thunder fans will still remember Thompson's power, and it seems that on this court, Thompson can always find self-confidence. In addition, Thompson's total three-point shooting in the regular season reached 1832, successfully surpassing George to rank 18th in history.
Curry didn't make multiple shots this time, only 12 shots in the game, hit 6 goals, got 18 points, and had 9 rebounds and 10 assists, just one rebound to get a triple-double. During the game, Curry also became the background, and thunder player Dort completed the dunk and knocked Curry, who was ready to grab the rebound, to the ground.
