The Warriors are undoubtedly in a very difficult position right now. Curry's injury is a very big blow to the Warriors, and it is not known at what stage Curry will complete his comeback. It was thought that the Warriors would usher in Wiseman's return, and the weaknesses of their interior line would be solved. Unfortunately, Wiseman has suffered another injury and is currently undetermined. Two of the team's key players are injured, and the road ahead of the Warriors is confusing. At this time the existing players have to play aggressive, they have to recognize the seriousness of the matter.
At this stage, in addition to Poole and Thompson among the Warriors players, Wiggins must stand up and help the team. But Wiggins didn't do as well in his last game against the Spurs, scoring just 16 points. The fans were also very unhappy with his performance. What the fans are not happy about is not how many points he gets, but that he has too few shots. In other words, his offensive end is still not aggressive. In the Warriors' starting lineup, only Wiggins has the ability to eat on the inside, and his 13 shots are not enough. Many fans bluntly say that he has averaged at least 18 shots per game. When Curry is injured, he must average more than 20 points per game to help the team.
After the end of the last game, many people are very dissatisfied with Wiggins' performance, believing that he still chose to be invisible after Curry was injured, averaging only 17+4 per game this season, and that Wiggins is not worthy of the all-Star aura, nor is he worthy of his annual salary. In fact, the fans' doubts are understandable, after all, the Warriors are in a very difficult situation now. But fans have to look at the problem in two ways.
Although Wiggins doesn't average points per game, when we look at Wiggins' stats, you will find that his overall shooting percentage is good, and his defensive effect every game is good. So far, his average shooting percentage per game, including his three-point shooting average per game, is good. It's just that he's averaging too few shots per game this season, so his average score per game isn't high. If Wiggins adds more than 5 shots per game, his stats could come to more than 20 points.
The reason why Wiggins hid his shots was, on the one hand, that his desire to attack was not strong. On the other hand, it is also related to the warriors' tactical layout. He was the main offense defensive for most of the season for the Warriors. And Cole rarely gives him tactics on the offensive end. The Warriors' first and second offensive options were Curry and Thompson. The third offensive option when Poole was on the floor at the same time was Poole. So Wiggins is a more backward choice in the Warriors' offensive system. So to a certain extent, this also makes his average number of shots per game low.
Many fans believe that Kerr should lay out more low-post tactics for Wiggins in the next game. Let him be more involved in the attack, I don't know what the fans think?
