Golden State Warriors did not disappoint the fans, in the first game of the playoffs with the Nuggets, the Warriors grasped the initiative on the court as soon as they opened, and in the case of the inner strength not as good as the opponent, the Warriors firmly bit the score in the first quarter of the game, and in the second quarter of the game, the Warriors began to exert their strength, cutting 32 points in a single quarter, and the Nuggets only got 20 points because of the lack of scoring points, and the Warriors had already gained a lot of advantages after halftime. In the second half of the game, the Warriors continued the fiery state of the first half of the game, both in the offensive and defensive ends of the locked opponent, although the Nuggets ushered in the fourth quarter of the game ushered in the state recovery, but it was too late, the Warriors' fiery state has been unable to hold back, and finally the Warriors won the playoffs with a 123-107 victory over the Nuggets to get the playoffs. However, although they won the first game of the playoffs, the Warriors exposed three major hidden dangers!
Jordan Poole is in excellent form, and Curry's starting position is afraid to shake!
In the first game of the playoffs, Jordan Poole really played a comparable data performance, the first half of the game 6 shots 6 once frightened the Nuggets finalist, the second half of the game is not as explosive as the first half, but the whole game down, Jordan Poole's performance has been online, which is really not easy for a young player who plays the playoffs for the first year, and although the first quarter of the game is a little rusty, but as the game progresses, Poole's control of the game is more and more certain, just because of his excellent play, The Warriors were able to build a huge lead in the second quarter. However, behind Pooler's excellent performance has brought happy trouble to the Warriors, that is, whether Curry can return to the starting position, after all, after this game, even Clay said that he and Poole were quite good, which means that playing with Poole will be more comfortable, so Poole's excellent performance also throws a problem to coach Kerr, who should be chosen between Curry and Poole? If the balance between the two can't be achieved, the Warriors really have a locker room problem!
The team's internal dangers are huge, and the first round of the series is really unstable!
Although the game was won, but the Warriors' unresolved problem has not been well solved, that is, the team's internal strength is really vulnerable, in this game, the Warriors rely on the efforts of Green and the bench to arrange Jokic to death, but this does not mean that in the next game they can still do what they want, the Nuggets will definitely make adjustments, but what does the Warriors have to deal with? After Wiseman determined that he could not play in all the games this season, the Warriors' internal problems instantly became a breakthrough for many teams, assuming that in the next game, the Nuggets really aimed at this point to play, the Warriors are entirely likely to be countered by the opponent, and the consumption of a field, Green, or others, the internal defense line will always be lax, once the inside line can not limit the Nuggets, the Warriors are likely to collapse!
The team's tactics are likely to change dramatically, and the risk of changing sides on the spot is really too great!
Or that problem, although Jordan Pooler played a data performance comparable to the famous, but this problem is really a double-edged sword for the Warriors, Poole is playing well now, Kerr is using him or not, if not, once the team loses, Kerr will definitely become the target of public criticism, if used, Poole will definitely pose a threat to Curry's starting position, and once Curry is put on the starting line-up, will Poole be convinced? So now the Warriors not only have to face the problem of internal strength, but also have to consider whether there will be a locker room contradiction, after all, everyone is here to play, are to ask for a salary, Jordan Pooler must also want to show themselves to get a high salary, so in this case, I personally feel that the Warriors really have to solve this problem, otherwise there may be internal contradictions, and if so, then all the efforts of the Warriors this season will be wasted!
Fans, do you think the Warriors can achieve a good result in the first round of the playoffs? How far can they go on their playoff journey this season? Everyone is welcome to express their views in the comments section and participate in the discussion!
