Chris Paul made a brand new comeback as the regular season drew to a close, during which the Suns continued to show off their league supremacy. In fact, they have already got tickets to the playoffs and have secured the throne of the first regular season record, but they are so unreasonable that they have become a nightmare for the rest of the league. The league's second-highest average, second-best defensive efficiency league, first-place shooting percentage in the league, and currently 61-game wins in the regular season all underscore the extraordinary nature of this team.
This game, the Phoenix Suns came to Golden State to challenge the Warriors on the road. Since Curry missed the team due to injury, the Warriors have only achieved a 1-5 record, and the team is slowly deviating from the right track. The results of the facts once again prove that Curry is the indispensable backbone of the Warriors system. So, this home challenge to the Suns, the star Curry continues to be absent, what state should the Golden State Warriors face? Let's move on.
At the beginning of the game, even though Clay was not in good shape, only 1 of 4 shots, jordan poole was able to get into shape quickly. In the first quarter, with an efficient shooting rate of 7 shots and 6 shots, he sent 15 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists to burst data, and helped the team play a 32-29 single-quarter score to get a 3-point lead. However, after entering the second quarter of the showdown, the Warriors fell into a scoring drought. Poole's dumb fire broke out in the first quarter, 0 of 5 shots in a single quarter, Klay was still sluggish, and once again sent an inefficient shooting rate of 6 shots and 1, and the Warriors only scored 16 points in the second quarter.
At the same time, the Suns, who seized the opportunity, launched a strong counterattack, and in the situation where the players in the team blossomed at multiple points, they handed over a 21-16 score. At the end of the first half of the game, the Suns not only recovered the 2 points they trailed in the first quarter, but also achieved a 2-point rebound with a 50-48 score. And Yi Bian fought again, and the competition between the two teams became more and more intense. Poole threatened again in the third quarter, sending 11 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists, but failed to help the team achieve a point chase, and the two sides drew 27-27 in a single quarter.
In the final quarter of the decisive victory, Paul once again showed his momentum as the king of the last quarter; 3 of 3 shots in a single quarter, as well as 2 of 2 free throws, and Paul, who shot 100% in the final quarter, sent a key 8 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist, helping the team to play a 30-28 score and win the game with a score of 107-103. After winning the game, the Suns took advantage of the nine-game winning streak, becoming the team that currently holds the longest winning streak in the league. Looking back at the statistics of the game, the performance of the Suns' star, Devin Booker, can be described as inexhaustible.
Although he handed over 22 points and 5 rebounds, which eased the overall scoring pressure of the team to a certain extent, the poor shooting rate of 5 of 21 shots in a single game was simply not too chicken, and did not show the target star that his team leader should have. Moreover, the two fouls of Jordan Poole in the crucial final quarter also put the Suns in trouble for a while. Of course, they have the trustworthy Paul who delivered 15 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists, and Ayton, who is in good shape, also has a 16+16 double-double, and Bridges, who played 40 minutes and handed over 22 points and 7 rebounds.
