On March 29, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, and the Golden State Warriors challenged the Memphis Grizzlies away. After four quarters of fighting, the Warriors finally lost to their opponents with a score of 95-123. At this point, all four games this season have ended, and the Warriors are in a significant disadvantage with 1 win and 3 losses.
Since Curry was injured against the Celtics on March 17, the Warriors have lost 6 of their last seven games, and in these 6 games, opponents include top teams such as the Grizzlies and Celtics, as well as fish belly like magic and Wizards, which can be said to be a veritable soft persimmon. As of now, the Warriors are third in the West with 48 wins and 28 losses, five wins away from the second-place Grizzlies, and if they lose one more game or the Grizzlies win one more game, they will completely miss the second place in the West.
In Curry's absence, young Player Poole became one of the team's few bright spots. In those seven games, he averaged 26.9 points per game, shooting 43.2 percent from the field and 33.6 percent from three-point range, and averaged 4.2 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game.
In contrast, forward Wiggins is much inferior, in these 7 games, Wiggins played in 6 games, averaging only 17.3 points and 4.6 rebounds per game, the overall shooting rate was only 41.1%, the outside shooting rate was as low as 24%, and even averaged 2.4 errors per game. Such a performance may be less than satisfactory for an ordinary starting forward, but Wiggins is the Western Conference All-Star starter this season.
In fact, Wiggins's slump has not been this time, since the All-Star weekend, his form has dropped significantly, re-lifted the thermos, averaging only 14.7 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, shooting only 40.3% overall and shooting as low as 28% from three-point range.
In the past period of time, Warriors coach Kerr has tapped Wiggins more than once in an interview, hoping that he can strengthen his aggression and play harder, but from the perspective of the game, there is a bit of a sense of déjà vu.
In the opening stage of the season, the Warriors performed well, and once let the fans see the shadow of the Warriors who once had 5 years and 3 championships under the consecutive victories; but from the past period of play, Curry suffered injuries, Tang Shen's state became obsessed, Green's state declined, and Wiggins was useless... It seems that they are very far behind the Warriors team at their peak, and they are more and more lost to the championship.
