#NBA #Warriors Weekly: Curry is in hot form, mouth brother attack and defense are integrated, and the bench is embarrassed!
The new season officially began on October 19, and the Golden State Warriors embarked on the road to defending their title under the leadership of star Curry. In the first week of the new season, the Warriors currently have a 2-1 record:
Oct. 19 Lakers 109-123 Warriors, win
Oct. 22 Nuggets 128-123 Warriors, loss
October 24 Kings 125-130 Warriors, won
Specific to the Warriors, each player has a different performance.
Curry is hot and unstoppable
In the opener against the Lakers, he scored comprehensive data of 33 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 steals; Facing the Nuggets at home, Curry once again cut down 34 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, but unfortunately Klay did not shoot a parity three-point Warriors lost!
In today's game against the Kings, Curry was on fire in the first half, scoring 28 points on 6-of-8 shooting from beyond the three-point line in just 16 minutes. In the second quarter of the game, Curry played 7 minutes and 57 seconds, scoring 21 points in a single quarter, and 20+ single-quarter for the 38th time in his career, leading Kobe Bryant's 36 times and continuing to rank first in league history.
Led by Curry, the Warriors scored 50 points in the second quarter and a super high 89 points in the half. At the end of the third quarter, the Warriors still maintained a 20-point lead, but the Warriors young did not hold the lead, and the main players were forced to return to the court to reap the game!
Curry contributed 33 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, so that last season's Finals MVP has scored at least 33 points in all games since the start of the season (33 against the Lakers and 34 against the Nuggets), which Curry is the only one in the league.
After a long championship-winning season, the 34-year-old Curry is still in excellent form, which is definitely good for the Warriors' journey to defend his title.
Wiggins is one in attack and defense, and the Golden State card lives up to its name
Wiggins' value on the defensive end was well recognized last season in the playoffs, as he was the Warriors' number one outside defensive leader and the team's second rebounter behind center Rooney. In the offseason, Wiggins signed a four-year, $109 million early contract extension with the Warriors, and when asked why he accepted the contract that was well below the market price, Goji admitted that he found a home in the Warriors, which is what he values most.
In the new season, Wiggins broke his 18-point rule and has scored 20 points in three consecutive games. After scoring 20 points against the Lakers, the Nuggets scored another 23 points, and today they contributed 24 points better than before, one game after another. Wiggins is definitely the second Warriors man after Curry.
In an interview during the offseason, Wiggins told the media more than once that he wants to be an All-Star again and also wants to be selected to the best defensive team. If Goji can continue to maintain the excellent form since the beginning of the season, neither of his goals will be empty talk.
The substitutes are immature and jerky and embarrassing
The Warriors' young bench is currently looking embarrassed, losing nearly 20 points against the Nuggets in three games except for the Los Angeles Lakers, and the 20-point lead against the Kings has been chased to a single-digit point difference. The Warriors' bench is limited on both offensive and defensive ends, and the offense cannot be attacked and defended. Poole, who has just signed a big contract, has also performed in a weak and inconsistent manner.
The Warriors' schedule for the week ahead
Oct. 26 Warriors vs Suns
Oct. 28 Heat vs Warriors
Oct. 30 Warriors vs Hornets
Oct. 31 Warriors vs. Pistons
After three consecutive home games in the season, the Warriors will travel to Phoenix to face arch-rivals the Suns, and then return home to face the Heat, who reached the Eastern Conference finals last season, both of which are tough battles for the Warriors. The Warriors will then embark on a journey of the East and will also undergo back-to-back tests of the season for the first time. #NBA opens ##勇士 with all its heart #
