As one of the most successful teams in the NBA league in the past decade, the Golden State Warriors have once again let fans see the hope of standing on the top of the league this season, but to achieve this goal, it is not only necessary for the team to have excellent combat effectiveness, but also to have the care of the goddess of luck to keep the core players away from the problem of injury, which the Warriors have deeply experienced, and the super luxury lineup of that year lost to the Raptors in the Finals, because of the injuries of Durant and Klay Thompson! And in the closing stage of the regular season of this season, the Warriors suffered bad news again, in the previous game with Green Kai, Curry was directly pressed to the ankle by the opponent when competing with Smart for the floor ball, and also entered the team's injury list, this campaign faced the Spurs, Curry hung up the free card also made the team's combat effectiveness have a significant decline, the first quarter of the game Spurs began to give the Warriors a boring stick, a single quarter of the climax of 36-22, and then the Warriors under the leadership of Klay Thompson and Poole, Launched a strong counterattack, the last quarter once saw the hope of winning, but the health of Mamba Vikins key free throw missed, buried a good game, the Spurs relied on Johnson's quasi-kill, 110-108 narrowly won the Warriors!
As long as Popovich coached for a day, the Spurs will always firmly implement their overall basketball philosophy, this game has frequently played triple-double data this season, has become the team leader of Murray, although the personal offensive efficiency is not very high, 24 shots only hit 8 goals, but still showed their own comprehensiveness, a person contributed 19 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists.
Under his tandem, the Spurs have a total of six players scoring in double figures, of which Richardson, who came off the bench, became the team's miracle soldier, hitting 8 goals in 12 shots, including 3 three-pointers, cutting a team-high 25 points, his steady output from the outside, and the reason why the Spurs, who are not good at three-pointers, can dominate the outside.
In Curry's absence due to injury, Poole and Klay became the core of the Warriors' offensive end, this game Pooler had 28 points, 5 rebounds and assists on 4-of-9 shooting from outside the three-point line, and Klay Thompson also hit 6 three-pointers to get 24 points after Poole, and the two of them frequently hit three-pointers on the outside and were the reason why the Warriors were able to see hope of winning in the final moments.
But the poor free throw performance of the healthy MambaVikins became the main reason for the team's loss, and in the final moments, in the case of a draw between the two sides, Wiggins got 2 free throws, the first free throw made the team overtake the score, but the second penalty missed, Pollertl caused the Warriors to foul when scrambling for rebounds, although he missed the second free throw, but Johnson made a basket and helped the Spurs kill the opponent.
In this season's All-Star Game, Wiggins was selected for the Western Conference starting lineup for the first time in his career, but if he wants to be an All-Star starter who convinces fans, Wiggins must come up with a more dominant performance, and if the Warriors want to stand on the top of the NBA again under the leadership of splash brother Curry and Klay Thompson, Wiggins must also take on greater responsibilities at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, at least to play the role of Barnes in the team that year!
