The Warriors' record has fluctuated in recent times, which is directly related to Green's injury, and the good news is that Green is finally coming back. On March 15, Beijing time, next Tuesday, Green will return. The Warriors' Big Three will reunite after three years, and this time it's a true fit. Because the last time Thompson came back, Green only symbolically played 7 seconds.
Green is really too important to the Warriors, and during this time the Warriors have lost one after another, and without Green they really have a headache. Take a look at the last 5 games, the last 5 games the Warriors lost 2, the loss to the Lakers let the opponent score 124 points, the loss of the Nuggets game let the opponent score 131 points. In these games, the Warriors have regained their form and their defensive performance has improved, but the Warriors are still full of pressure when defending without Green, the cornerstone of defense.
Green is the Warriors' rebounding and assist king this season, grabbing 7.6 rebounds and 7.4 assists per game. In addition, Green can also deliver 1.4 steals and 1.2 blocks per game. He's averaged steals and blocks in the league's top 20, and Green has averaged just 30 minutes per game this season. Green is a typical player who plays more on the field than the stats, and his fight, prediction and motivation will make the team better. You're definitely going to be happy playing with a player like Green because he's a reassuring teammate.
Curry Thompson Green's trio has created too much brilliance, and the cooperation between them can also be described as flowing clouds. Of course, the most important significance of Green's comeback is to make up for the shortcomings of the Warriors lineup. The Warriors really haven't lost in this lineup for 15 years, and in 2015, the Warriors came out, and that year the Warriors won the league's most 67 wins. Curry won the first regular season MVP of his career, and the Warriors reversed the Cavaliers to win the championship after falling behind 1-2. Green has played a good game that season, the team can attack and defend, and the soldiers are strong. In 2015, in addition to the Warriors' Big Three, there were Iguodala, Bogut, Speight, Barnes, David Lee, Aizeli, and Livingston. Leaving aside the Warriors Big Three and Iguodala, several other players prefer quality role players who are proficient in one aspect. For example, Livingston has a beautiful back-back shot and is well organized, while Aizeli is good at defense. Barnes can defend and has good fixed-point shots.
The Warriors' lineup this season is more talented than 15 years, and the Warriors currently have young rising stars and mature and stable veterans like Curry. The Warriors' Big Three have Wiggins, who is named an All-Star for the first time in his career, and although Wiggins' selection is controversial, he is a qualified 3D player and does not have much possession. Poole has exploded this season, averaging career-high points per game and is a good attacker. Rookies Cumminga and Moody have both excelled in their limited playing time. Wiseman, the Warriors' leader last season, is coming back, and his talent is also very prominent. If the Warriors can successfully run in at the end of the season, they will be very competitive.
Finally, Warriors head coach Kerr said that Green will be limited by playing time when he returns. But as long as Green's return is a good thing, his return can solve many of the Warriors' problems, but also allow the Warriors to condense into a rope to launch an attack on the championship. Dear readers, how do you comment on Green's upcoming return?
