The Golden State Warriors' series against the Denver Nuggets was completely over, and the Warriors managed to advance to the second round against the timberwolves and Grizzlies. When the Warriors were 3-0 nuggets before, I made an analysis that Teacher Jo has the opportunity to rely on his own strength and get a victory under the Warriors' hands. But it's just a win, in fact, from the fifth Game of the Warriors' platoon, Kerr's purpose is to close the game.
Chapter 1: Cole's Intentions
After a defeat, Kerr finally put Curry on the starting line-up, but Poole was still not dropped. Although Poole played a bit of a crotch in the last game, playing 38 minutes and only had 11 points, 3 rebounds, and 9 assists, this shot was blocked by the Nuggets, only 3 of 10, and the three-pointer was only 1 of 5. But Kerr didn't discourage Poole, he put up a starting lineup of three guards, and the previous invisible starter Looney began to sit on the bench.
And Dream-Chaser Green played in the starting number five position, which is a very sensitive signal, the last game green played the number five position, back to the series against the Raptors two years ago, the night of the G6. Although he usually scolds Green for being a big fool, the green teacher in the playoffs is really not pulling. The Nuggets did not need a guard to defend Curry in the opening game, but went to Aaron Gordon to keep an eye on the defense, but still could not keep up. Jeff Green, who was standing on the sidelines, was about to look at Curry, and when he missed Wiggins without hesitation, he saw dreaming of completing the dunk on the inside line. Watching the Warriors game is an inexplicable feeling of comfort, such an extreme team cooperation, you are difficult to see on other teams.
In fact, Kerr put up a starting lineup of three defenders, but there is a unique intention. After Poole made a little score, the Nuggets had to defend, after all, this kid is also like Curry, and it is not good to play the head. Poole in this lineup, mainly to open up the space, so that there are projections can also break the newcomer, you can only see in the Warriors. Goji Brother is a small expert in running without the ball, cutting inward to attract the attention of big men, and Curry is the one who scores. Not knowing if he remembers the ball, Gordon stared at Curry deadly, but Wiggins made an inward cut, making Gordon hesitate for half a second, and Curry relied on this short space to shoot his second three-pointer.
Soon, of course, Malone focused on paying attention to the Warriors' outside three-pointers, a strategy that worked after the first quarter. Poole failed to win in the second quarter and Wiggins missed a shot, with the only person to shoot was Clay, who scored near the end of half. Jeff Green is 35 years old and not as athletic as last season, but he still remembers what Coach Malone said, on the inside I can prevent Green and Cuminga from occasionally dunking, but on the outside I really can't give a chance. Once the Warriors' outside line is thrown, it is really difficult to chase points.
Today there is a shot of Iguodala sitting in the field, wearing a black suit and feeling like a successful person. Ichigo loves the Warriors atmosphere, but he's back now more as an experience-sharer. As for whether it is injury or not, it remains to be determined, in short, Kerr let Cuminga feel the atmosphere of next season's playoffs today, but there is not much time to play. Instead, Peyton Jr. became the wonder of this game. Payton can do a lot of work, can defend against arrow figures, can card frontcourt rebounds, can also become a sharpshooter on the outside, and the most important thing is that it is cheap.
Chapter Two: Peyton Jr. and Curry
In fact, before the start of the season, Payton was cut by the Warriors, and no one claimed Peyton Jr. for three days at that time, but the Warriors still gave him a contract. At that time, the Warriors had been hovering between Bradley and Payton Jr., the most difficult choice was the two choices, but Bradley in the preseason was too crotch-pulling, and thinking about the previous anti-bone incident, the Warriors made the right choice. Peyton Jr. is the height of the number one, but he does the work of the number three. This is the warrior system, which can maximize the development of other skills of the player, but this move is only in the warrior spirit.
You are like a brother who can play from the second position to the fourth position, the figure of KuMinga's third position can also make a cameo position in the fifth position, and the green teacher can use it as the number one position. A lot of the players who play well in the Warriors are invisible to other teams: Pascal, Cup Cat, Chris. Because not every team has a player named Stephen Curry.
In fact, the Nuggets in the third quarter played very tenaciously, and they had a good chance of winning the game, but they failed to prevent the great three-point goat. By the time the score came to 66-56, the Nuggets had already taken a double-digit lead, and it was easy to switch to another team, but not against the Warriors. Curry's unreasonable three-pointers instantly pulled the huge advantage back to a round of point difference, and there was no way this was the Warriors' biggest kill.
To the back of the Nuggets began to pinch Curry, Potter today did not feel good and did not shoot strongly, transferred to the weak side of the little Payton, three-pointers up and down. Then the Nuggets still do not have a long memory, after pinch curry, Klay fell to the inside of Green, and then handed the ball to Payton, Wiggins, and finally Wiggins still gave up the breakthrough, to the empty Peyton hit again. In fact, Wiggins's basket for this series is not accurate, but his biggest threat is still in the incision.
Curry's singles in the last moment showed the style of the next superstar. He dribbled the ball from the right to the left, and a disguised defender scored with a left-handed layup in front of Jokic. If Payton's three-pointer is to put the Warriors in an invincible position, then Curry's layup is a cover for the victory. Curry scored 30 points, while Payton Jr. contributed 15 points to rank second on the team, and Gary Payton, who was sitting on the sidelines, watched his son's performance and remembered his former self.
Chapter 3: The Hardships of The Teacher
In an interview with the media after the game, Dream Green said: "It is an honor to be able to compete with guys full of talent and skill. Usually, guys full of talent and skill are a bit soft (hinting at Durant?). ）。 He's not soft at all, though, he's an amazing guy. In fact, Teacher Green's series is really not pulled in terms of offense, averaging a three-pointer against Teacher About, and when Green can score three points, it is difficult for the Warriors to lose the game.
In this series, Mr. Yo can average 31.0 points, 13.2 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.6 steals, and shoot 57.5% from the field. He is still the MVP, although Teacher Yo is defeated; the same is out of the first round, netizens give Teacher Yo flowers and applause, give Adu but endless ridicule. Without Murray and Porter Jr., the team's second and third bosses, except for today's Cousins and Morris, are supported by teachers at other times. Teacher Yo no longer has to endure, attacking, rebounding, organizing himself to do it alone, and turning back to be chased by the warriors' three guns.
