After two seasons of fierce soldiers, the Golden State Warriors showed a completely different mental outlook after the curtain opened in the regular season this season, under the leadership of core Curry, with excellent overall performance in the top of the standings, but the Suns, who won the Western Conference championship last season, under the leadership of veteran Paul, the momentum is also very strong, and with a more stable performance has occupied the first ranking in the West, for the Warriors, if you want to surpass the Suns, you must come up with a more stable performance. But dream Green's injury, so that the team's inner defensive end of the dominance of the decline in the team, the last game against the Jazz, resulting in a sudden end to the winning streak, largely because the interior performance is not as good as the opponent, and in this game, the Warriors encountered the Knicks, after the game began, the Knicks showed their advantages in the interior line under the leadership of Randall, maintaining the lead in the score for a long time, although the Warriors once narrowed the point difference to only 2 points in the last quarter. However, it was unable to limit the opponent's interior attack, which eventually led to the Warriors losing to the Knicks 114-116 and suffering two consecutive losses!
The warriors' deepest impression on the fans is their super offensive firepower, but only excellent offense, no sharp defense is difficult to win the NBA championship many times, and the interior iron gate chasing the dream Green is an indispensable defensive core of the Warriors, because of the injury, Green can not appear to give the Knicks interior core Randall the opportunity to perform, although the whole game The Warriors have done their best to limit Randall's play with a bag clip, but also achieved a certain effect, but still let Randall 23 shots 10, With 28 points, 16 rebounds, seven assists and one block, the Knicks managed to win 13 rebounds.
After Randle played a personal threat on the inside, the Warriors could only be forced to change the defense, which also gave the Knicks more good offensive opportunities for outside pitchers, which is also the reason why the Knicks were able to shoot 14 three-pointers with a 38.9% shooting rate in the whole game, of which Fournier became the most threatening player on the team's outside line, one hit 5 three-pointers and cut the team's second-high 22 points, he and Randle played inside and outside, is the key to the Knicks to win.
Fans familiar with the Warriors are very clear, want to let the Splash Brothers maximize their offensive threat, Green as the pivot, and then the two people continue to intersperse the ball-free running, is the Warriors' most threatening offensive method, but now Green can not appear, so that Curry can only attack with the ball, which undoubtedly makes it easier for opponents to limit Curry's play, the whole game under the Knicks' close attention, Curry although cut 35 points and 10 assists of the two double data, but 25 shots only hit 11 goals, With only 5-of-16 shooting from three-point range, the Warriors scored in double figures on five of their 16-point range, but their weaknesses on the inside prevented them from changing the fate of the losing streak.
After the return of Klay Thompson, the Warriors are not inferior to any team in the league in the outside confrontation, and whether they can get to the top of the league again depends largely on the team's internal play, looking forward to the dream and Wiseman can return as soon as possible, and inject strength into the team's inner line!
