The Warriors lost at home to the Nuggets. Curry shot 10 of 19 (1 of 7 from three) cut the data of 25 points, 3 boards and 6 assists, although the three points were not accurate, but today Curry's shot within the three-point line was 12 shots and 9 shots, and also hit the key shot, almost completed the quasi-kill, but unfortunately was killed and lost in the last moment.
In the first quarter, Curry hit a three-pointer in 6 minutes, which is also Curry's 179 consecutive three-point shots, continuing to set a new record. Curry is in good physical condition today, the rhythm of the breakthrough is very good, the interior and attack are more resolute, playing twice 2+1. But there weren't many outside projection opportunities, and the shooting rhythm was not found.
In the final stages of the game, the Nuggets began to adopt a "shark-cutting" tactic against Looney, which was very successful, and Looney missed multiple free throws, creating a counter-opportunity for the Nuggets. In the final moments, Curry missed a three-point shot, but was countered by the Nuggets, giving the Nuggets a lead for the first time. But after a timeout, Curry completed the outside line to break through the back of the middle shot, not only hit but also caused a foul, Curryga hit a free throw, the Warriors held a 2-point lead. But in the final moments, the Nuggets completed the three-point kill, and Curry's last defense choice was to miss Morris.
The game was not unjustly lost, and the fundamental problems of the Warriors were not solved.
It seems that Looney's inaccurate free throw and Curry's defensive choice problems led to the loss of the game, but in fact, the team's inner line was ravaged by Teacher Yo, and the Warriors lost 10 rebounds. The main performance of the Nuggets in the whole game was extremely poor, the whole team made 18 mistakes, except for about the teacher's 35 points, the other starting players performed in a mess, which actually completed the reversal.
Malone said after the game: "The strategy of cutting Looney is desperate, the purpose is not to let Curry or Klay take the ball. The strategy worked because Kerr kept Looney defending Jokic. This changed the situation of the game. ”
Cole said: "I will stay up all night and blame myself for some of the changes on the pitch that didn't work. ”
