The Warriors lost again, and is an upset against the weak brigade, Curry's position can not be replaced, keeping the top six is the Warriors' goal in the end of the regular season, this task is not difficult to complete.
We all know how important Curry is to the Warriors, but we didn't expect that the Warriors without Curry could not even beat the Magic team, which ranked last in the East, and the result of this game disappointed the fans. In this game, Wiggins' offensive feel is not good, and he only scored 13 points on 5-of-19 shooting.
The Magic moved up one place in the rankings after the win, and currently, they are fourteenth in the East, and the gap between the Warriors and the team behind them has narrowed, which is not alarmist, they may fall out of the top six in the West. Why did the Warriors lose? Is the Warriors' roster poor? It's not bad, they can still send three All-Star players, Wiggins, Green and Thompson have distinct characteristics and strong strength, and the Magic team does not even have a star-level star, which is the reason why they can't achieve good results, it can be said that it is a civilian team, counting today's victory, they have only won twenty games this season.
The reason why the Warriors lost is that Wiggins is not good enough to make a contribution as a core player, any team that wants to win the championship must have at least two players with outstanding scoring ability and good at creating scores independently, Wiggins has such physical talent, he entered the league as a champion, his skills are very comprehensive, there are almost no shortcomings, but through the performance of the game, he is very mediocre, lack of morale and desire, what is the point that prevents him from becoming a superstar? I think it's that he's not tough enough, the style of play is soft, the key moments are unreliable, not a problem of ability, but a problem of mentality, and his psychological quality is too poor.
This season, Wiggins was named to the All-Star Team for the first time, but unfortunately his highlight period is very short, so far in February, he has only scored more than twenty points in two games, averaging only seventeen points per game this season, ranking forty-seven in the league, averaging assists and rebounds per game is ranked outside the hundredth, and his annual salary is as high as thirty million US dollars, ranking twenty-fifth in the league. Because of injury, Thompson has not played for two seasons, he has just returned, so it takes time to recover physically and adapt to the rhythm of the game, Green is a player who is good at defense and organization, offense is not his strong point, Poole is only twenty-two years old, this is only the third season of his career, inexperienced, but also lack of stability, these three core players have reasons for bad form, only Wiggins's advantage is the most obvious, and he is also the player who disappoints us the most.
Wiggins lost the support of the fans, but coach Cole did not give up on him, Kerr is still optimistic about Wiggins, he believes that Wiggins can play aggressive and turn the game around.
I would like to say that the Warriors' biggest hidden danger is Kerr and Wiggins, and they choose to hug each other for warmth, and the result may be harmful to the Warriors. Will the Warriors be able to make the playoffs? Whether Wiggins can deliver on his promise to fill Curry's gap, my answer is that it is difficult to get into the playoffs, and Wiggins can't make up for the impact of Curry's injury.
