In competitive sports, injuries are things that all teams do not want to encounter, especially once the core players are injured, it will make the team's combat effectiveness appear to decline off a cliff, and it will also directly affect the prospects of the team, the former league hegemony Warriors from five consecutive years to dominate the Western Conference, to two consecutive years without playoffs, a very important reason is injury, and this season once again played a stunning performance, so that fans saw the impact of the champion hope of the Warriors, in the final stage of the regular season once again suffered from injuries, In the previous game with Green Kai, the absolute core of the Warriors Curry in the fight with Smart floorball, was pressed to the ankle by the latter and then entered the team's injury list, when can return to the game is still unknown, the absence of meng God has made the Warriors' combat effectiveness have declined significantly, before the game with the Eastern Conference Countdown Magic, they have suffered two consecutive losses, and striving to win to end the streak has become their primary goal. But the Magic also did not want this opportunity to take advantage of the Warriors' life, they played very tenaciously throughout the game, and relied on Wagner Jr.'s play in the last moment to narrowly beat the Warriors 94-90!
In the case of Curry hanging up the free card, this season's outstanding Poole start and Klay Thompson formed the team's backcourt double gun, but without Curry's strong pulling power on the offensive end, Poole did not have so many empty shots in the past, although Poole cut the personal data of 26 points, 2 rebounds and 6 assists in the whole game, but only hit 9 goals in 23 shots, and there were 4 personal errors, and Klay Thompson's performance in this campaign is also difficult to say, Only 2-of-7 performance outside the three-point line, only scored 15 points, so that many Warriors fans are helpless to say that the Fozu Clay of that year can never come back.
Although the performance of the double gun in the backcourt is not satisfactory, they are not the root cause of the team's loss, the poor performance of The Healthy ManbaWikins, the end led to the team's defeat, the last game against the Spurs on missing key penalties directly let the opponent stage a kill, the state of Wiggins in this game is still sluggish, played 36.1 minutes and 19 shots only hit 5 goals, only got 13 points, 8 rebounds and 1 steal, far from meeting the expectations of the outside world.
Even if Curry can not play, but from the star's dominance point of view, the Warriors still have a clear advantage, in such a situation, the Magic can win the game, relying on the performance of the whole people at both ends of the kung fu, the ten players who appeared on the scene, nine of the players who appeared on the scene have scored, the first round of the eighth pick was selected by the team Wagner Jr., this campaign 9 shots 6, contributed 18 points, 3 assists, 2 steals and 1 block of personal data, and in the final anxious moment of the game, It was he who created a foul on Klay Thompson, won three penalty attempts, and ultimately helped the Magic seal the win, and the same young Carter also performed remarkably, scoring 19 points and eight rebounds on 7-of-12 shooting.
After losing this game, the Warriors want to regain the second place in the standings before the end of the regular season, and it is even possible to be overtaken by the Jazz behind them to fall to the fourth place, in the case of Curry's return date, the other players of the Warriors need to take on greater responsibility at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends to be able to stop the decline!
