In the third game of the first round between the Warriors and the Nuggets, the Warriors performed well at key moments, winning this game on the road, and the first round of the series has led the Nuggets 3-0, which means that the Warriors still need one more game to advance to the semifinals. The away game is a little harder than the home game, and Kerr still believes in the five small lineups at key moments, that is, the combination of Wiggins, Green, Curry, Klay Thompson and Poole, which is very good at present, is the key to their victory, and in the NBA, there are many teams that imitate the Warriors' way of playing.
For Poole, this is the first time in his career to play the playoffs, but from these three games, Poole's performance is really too efficient, in the game against the Nuggets, Poole shot 9 of 13, continued to maintain efficient play, the current playoff average can get 28.7 points per game, shooting 66.7%, three-point shooting rate is 59.1%, if you can maintain it, the early renewal of the contract must be the maximum salary, this is a certainty. Of course, the Nuggets are now short of major generals, and Poole still needs to continue to be tested.
After the game, Klay Thompson said of Cole in an interview, saying: "He's like an experienced veteran, and judging by the shots he made and the shots he hit, he was the catalyst for our offense. "Poole is shooting very much like Curry now, and he is more selfless on the court, willing to pass the ball for his teammates, which is a very good habit, which can make the team more holistic. At present, Poole is still a starter, Curry has become a substitute for the team, curry has become the starter sooner or later, and from The current performance of Poole, he should also be the starter.
Judging from the current performance of the Warriors, the overall performance is very good, Curry and Klay Thompson are also in very good form, Green and Wiggins have also made great contributions on the defensive end, and among the role players, Peton Jr., Belitsa, Porter and Iguodala can also help the team. The Warriors' current tactics are not very far from the past, with the five smalls constantly passing the ball on the court and then giving the players the best scoring positions. At present, the Nuggets have encountered a problem, if you pack Curry, then the Warriors still have two players who feel hot, if you don't pack Curry, Maybe Curry's scoring will be very easy.
Judging from Jokic's post-game interview, he also had a very good mentality, praised the performance of chasing dreams, for Jokic, he had no way, after all, the two top-paid teammates Murray and Porter Jr. were sitting on the court, and the Warriors were mainly defending Jokic, Looney came up to give confrontation, and then Green defended Jokic, although Jokic can get a lot of points on the inside, but he is very tired, which makes his physical strength in the last moments have certain problems. The Nuggets are not out yet, and Jokic has a chance to lead the team to a win, looking forward to the G4 game between the Warriors and nuggets.
