Hawks 121-110 Warriors!
After Curry was injured, the Warriors only won one Heat, so from the main player to the coach Kerr was almost scolded.
As if Curry is a bottom pants, as soon as Curry is gone, he can't completely hold the naked body of the warrior; as if Curry is a pagoda again, he is not there, he can't stop these "river demons" at all.
In the back seat of warriors fans, I think the most interesting is Klay. No matter what the outside world says, Clay always shoots without hesitation, and when he is about to be drowned by the spit star, he can use a game to make the fans eager to kneel for him and obediently shout "Buddha".
Ghosts are real ghosts, gods are also real gods, highlighting an inaccuracy, Schrödinger saw the call straight to the insider.
But when the All-Star starter teammates around him can only score 9 points, the super god Klay can't save the Golden State Warriors. When Wiggins market avalancheed, no Warriors fan was innocent.
First, Klay Thompson tried his best
Clay shot 14-of-26 and 9-of-16 from the perimeter today, playing the team's most 40-and-a-half points, cutting 37 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists.
With 9 three-pointers, Clay is a new season high this season.
The last time Clay made nine three-pointers was the last time... Oh no, it's been 1113 days since the Game against the Nuggets on March 8, 2019.
It's also the third time that Klay has cut a 30+ this season, winning the first two times against the Lakers and Bucks, but today it lost.
In fact, they had a chance to win, clay and Poole started well today, Poole scored 15 points on 5-of-7 in the first quarter, Clay scored 11 points on 4-of-6 shooting, and the two shot a total of 6 three-pointers.
Under the offensive start of the two, the Warriors scored 42 points in the first quarter.
Although Poole's form declined in the second quarter, Clay was still hot, scoring another 11 points in a single quarter. It was under Klay's strong firepower that the Warriors led the Hawks by up to 11 points this quarter, and without Curry, the Warriors were able to match the Hawks' offense and take the lead.
But the third quarter came back, the Warriors judged two teams, and the brave three collapsed again. Klay and Poole scored four points in tribute to Green, the Warriors' reenactment and the Magic's final quarter, with just 16 points in a single quarter.
At the end of the third quarter, the Hawks led the Warriors by exactly 18 points.
Four minutes before the fourth quarter, Clay scored three three-pointers in a row to lead the team to a wave of 15-2, chasing the point difference to five points.
That's the Warriors' chance, but why didn't they succeed?
Second, where is the warrior's problem?
It can be seen clearly from the time when Klay led the team to chase the score at the beginning of the fourth quarter: 11 minutes and 37 seconds, Hult missed three points, the Warriors got the rebound, Poole held the ball through the half, the Eagles did not play good, and Poole assisted Klay's three-pointer;
At 9:15, the Hawks missed the offense, and Clay himself chased a three-pointer through the half;
At 8:01, the Hawks missed the attack again, and Klay himself held the ball through the half and Looney launched a block in a high position to shoot three points.
The truth of the Warriors' climax is to first prevent the Hawks' attack, and take advantage of the Alignment Problem or unstable foothold in the Hawks' retreat to play a counterattack.
Kerr's lineup on the court at that time was: Poole + Payton + Lee + Clay + Looney, there was a defensive tip like Peyton on the outside, the team's only center Looney on the inside, Clay and his brother-in-law on the front line could make up, and the only defensive weakness in the lineup was Poole.
But Poole had to be on the court because he and Klay shot 13 of the Warriors' 14 three-pointers, and only when he and Klay were on the floor at the same time, the Warriors' space was barely enough.
But the core of this lineup is still defense, and the Warriors can chase points after playing a counterattack, and it can even be said that the Warriors' offense needs to be continued by defense.
But the lineup wasn't perfect, with the problem being Payton 191 cm, Poole 193 cm, brother-in-law 196 cm, Klay 198 cm and Looney close to 206 cm.
In the Eagles' final lineup, in addition to Blowing Yang's 185 centimeters, Both Hult and Caballo are close to 201 centimeters, Hunter 203 centimeters, and Capela 208 centimeters.
The Warriors' lineup is shorter per capita, and after Blowing Yang understands it, he continues to pass to Capela inside the line, send assists to the front, and constantly use his speed to break through to the inside line to cause fouls.
When the Warriors couldn't defend the Hawks, their offense also stopped. They scored 15 points in the first 4 minutes of the fourth quarter, but only 12 points in the last 8 minutes.
So is Cole an idiot? Can't see that the Warriors' roster is too short?
Kerr of course knows, but this lineup of Riple, Klay and Payton are all unmoved, the first two are the main offensive forces, and Payton has the best effect of defending Yang.
Looney can't move, the opening Cole used a small lineup, I guess it is to deal with the blowing Yang and Capela's block can be directly changed, but the effect is not good, so Looney's height is indispensable.
At this time, it is the brother-in-law on the front line, and the Warriors have a lot of heights on the front line - Green, Wiggins, Cumminga and Porter.
But these people have their own problems, Green and Looney have overlapping functions, and too much drag space, Curry is not there, Looney and Green will be embarrassed to be present at the same time.
Wiggins and Cumminga are both starters of the game, but they're not doing well defensively, so the only change Kerr can make could be to replace his brother-in-law with Porter.
But don't forget, the Warriors' 15-2 start in the fourth quarter was played by the brother-in-law and four other people, and whether Porter will be better or not is not certain.
So the Warriors' problem now is similar to that of the Lakers: they can't arrange a balanced lineup of attack and defense, you don't have to defend if you want to attack, and the space you want to defend is not good.
The root of this problem is Curry's absence, Curry has its own gravity, offense and space do not have to worry, the defensive end can put Payton, Clay, a brother, Green, Looney according to different situations, choose the right person on the court.
Curry is there, the Warriors have the capital to play the position attack, and the offense does not have to rely entirely on counterattack. So with Curry, let's talk about the so-called Warrior system.
The Hawks are 37-37 and tenth in the East; the Warriors are 48-26 and third in the West.
Thanks for reading it all!
