It seems that G3, Kerr can also let Curry replace, because the Nuggets can not break the Warriors' moves, when the Nuggets can break the Warriors' moves Curry and then return to the starting. And playing the bench has almost no impact on Curry, why is this said? Most of the other players or stars playing as substitutes are passive substitutes, either for the sake of the team's lineup or for the team's playing style. But here in the Warriors, even if Curry is a substitute, he is also the core, so his substitution is no different from the starter, just when he will appear. Curry's substitution is more of an alternative rotation.
It's clear that when Curry came on the field, the tactical position came back to him, still that style of play, and the Warriors didn't change much. The good point is that Pooler started and Curry came off the bench, but the bad point is that the rotation time between the two has changed. And now this substitution model is actually very comfortable for Curry, in the past when playing the starter, Kerr always had to think about a problem, that is, how to divide Curry's playing time, many times Curry's playing time is very broken, can not be coherent together, and now the substitute is direct.
Kerr directly let Curry have six minutes in the first quarter, six minutes in the second quarter, six minutes in the third quarter, and the fourth quarter depending on the situation. This rotation mode is very fixed, Curry's playing time is very stable, so his outbreak is wave after wave, and at this time, Curry does not care about the substitute or the starter, because how to play himself is very comfortable. So even off the bench, Curry still scored 34 points in 22 minutes of playing time, which is very efficient. At the same time, Kerr did this, but also disrupted the deployment of the Nuggets, Curry did not start, how to prevent this?
The first Nuggets were an infinite pinch, constantly using a two-man strategy. But Curry should still open, this game the Nuggets gave Curry a lot of one-on-one and three-point opportunities, there is no bag clip, but Curry broke out, or did not defend. Do you think it's Cole who's bothering right now? In fact, it is not true, Kerr does not matter, Curry can also G3 to follow the bench, and even say that the positions of Curry and Poole can be reversed, but the trouble is in the Nuggets here, how he defends has become a point to consider. The situation is not as simple as a Curry now, and Poole is also accurate, and neither of them is easy to defend.
Judging from the first two games of the first round, the Nuggets are generally able to hold on to the first half, and the second half begins to collapse. There is one reason why jokic can hold on in the first half, that is, Jokic has physical strength, can score, and can turn the river on the inside, but once in the second half, when Jokic's physical strength begins to decline, the Nuggets begin to go downhill, and the Nuggets are confused after several waves of offensive and defensive conversions. And the Warriors side Of the Curry ran so fiercely, shot so fiercely, but only played for 22 minutes, the degree of physical reserve is different, the Warriors still have the bottom card, and the Nuggets are already hanging on the line.
