Not long ago, the finals G1 was staged at the Chase Center. Before the game, most people believed that the Warriors could win, because kerr's team had no reason to lose. The first three quarters of the game also proved this, with the Warriors playing a small climax and pulling the score above 10 points at once. Falling so far behind at the Warriors' home court, it's generally out of the game. However, the result of the game was unexpected, the Green Army broke out in the final quarter, the team rained three points, and did the ultimate in the defensive end, and in the end, the Green Army won the away game and won the first game of the Finals.
Although the victory in this game was unexpected, after all, the team was too accurate in the last quarter. However, a closer analysis will show that it makes sense that the Green Army can win. First, the team increased its defensive intensity in the final quarter, and under great defensive pressure, the Warriors made a series of mistakes. Secondly, the Green Army changed its strategy, wasn't Tatum inaccurate? Then instead of letting him play alone with the ball, let him participate in the organization and defense, and let others end the attack. Finally, many players in the team broke out, such as Brown, Horford, Xiaobai and so on.
After winning G1, the probability of winning the Green Army has increased by another notch. And according to the two historical summaries, the Green Army is also likely to be the side that wins the championship. Which two historical summaries? First, in the history of the NBA Finals, the probability that the team that wins series G1 can eventually win the championship is 70.7%, of which 53 teams win the championship and 22 lose. Second, in the Warriors' past 5 Finals trip, that is, from 2015 to 2019, the Warriors only lost G1 in the Finals once, and this time the Warriors eventually lost the championship, losing to the Raptors 2-4. Of course, this is only a summary of history, and can only be used as a reference. But, to some extent, the Green Army did play well.
Losing the Finals G1, the Warriors were devastated, and the next game the team said that it was going to change the decline, otherwise it was unacceptable to be 0-2 behind. In this game, the Warriors have a lot of problems, such as the unsustainability of the attack, Kerr's platoon and so on. For the Green Army, the team also needs to improve, such as the cold Tatum, who needs to self-reflect.
The next game should be no less exciting than this one. I hope that both sides of the game can play their own style and bring the wonderful game to the fans.
