1. Point guard
Warriors: Curry, playoffs average: 25.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game, Western Conference Finals MVP.
Celtics: Smart, playoff average: 14.9 points, 4.2 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game, Defensive Player of the Year.
The sharpest offense meets the toughest defense, Curry will be more uncomfortable, but I believe curry will use other methods to help the team win, such as assists or rebounds, this group of matchup Curry narrowly beat Smart 6-4.
Curry and Smart
2. Scoring guard
Warriors: Thompson, playoffs average: 19.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game
Celtics: Brown, playoffs average: 22.9 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game
The strength of the two is very close, Brown scores more stable than Thompson, Thompson scores more explosive than Brown (refer to the semi-final g6 and final G5), so the two are tied 5-5.
Third, small forwards
Warriors: Wiggins, playoff average: 15.8 points, 7 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game.
Celtics: Tatum, playoffs: 27.1 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game.
Given Wiggins' tactical position on the Warriors (the Warriors' shooting power is more dispersed), Tatum's personal performance is stronger than Wiggins's, so Tatum won 6-4.
Fourth, the big forward
Warriors: Green, who averaged 8.7 points, 6.9 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game in the playoffs
Celtics: Lowe, playoffs average: 8.4 points, 5.7 rebounds and 0.7 assists per game
Both were known for their defense, but Green played a bigger role in the Warriors, so Green narrowly won 6-4.
Fifth, the center
Warriors: Looney, playoffs average: 6.1 points, 7.7 rebounds and 2 assists per game
Celtics: Horford, playoffs average: 12.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game
Looney was younger and more physically fit, but Horford was more experienced, scoring, rebounding and assisting better than Looney, so Horford won 6-4.
6. Substitute lineup
Warriors: Poole, Porter, Cummingga, Payton Jr., Brother One, etc
Celtics: Gervay, White, Tess, Pritchard and others
In the Finals, Peyton Jr. and Ichigo are expected to return, the Warriors have two more defensive players, the bench lineup has points and defenses, and the depth is much deeper than that of the Celtics, so the bench won 6-4.
7. Head coach
Warriors: Kerr, the champion coach, has first-class coaching ability and on-the-spot adjustment ability, and is very experienced in the Finals, whether as a player or a coach.
Celtics: Uduka, the team's first time as the team's head coach, but from the first round of sweeping to defeating the defending champion, the Heat, has proved Uduka's coaching ability.
This group of dueling individuals is more optimistic about Cole.
Seven groups of duels against the Warriors 4 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, so it is predicted that the Warriors will beat the Celtics 4-2 to win the seventh championship in team history!
