NBA regular season, the Warriors will return home to face the Spurs back-to-back challenge, the last Warriors lost to the Kings on the road, the new season away 0-7, all game wins back home to get, while the Spurs last game against the Bucks, morale is strong, now away to challenge the defending champion, Popovich is expected to fulfill his wish, complete the task of losing and competing for the Venbanyama.
Recent developments between the two teams
The Warriors' record in the new season is not strong, as the defending champion only 5-8, ranked 13th in the West, the record is difficult to satisfy, especially their away record, difficult to win, after losing to the King, the team suffered 7 consecutive away defeats, this is the first time in team history since 1989 such a fiasco, resulting in such a difficult situation for the team for many reasons, one of which is the defense is unfavorable, In 13 games, the Warriors lost an average of 119.2 points per game, ranking first in the league, defensive efficiency is also the bottom of the league, defense is the foundation of a team, and the new season Warriors seem to give up defense, without Payton Jr. and Porter, the team relies on young players and does not achieve the intensity of last season, coupled with the contradiction between Green and Poole, resulting in Green no longer shouting in the new season, more conscientious, lack of encouragement between teammates.
Second: Klay and Poole and the slump of young players, according to NBA statistics, the Warriors in these 13 games, as long as Curry does not score more than 33 points, the Warriors are difficult to win, and Curry as long as he scores more than 33 points, the Warriors win, the team is too dependent on Curry, resulting in opponents limiting Curry, take the Warriors against the Kings, Brown's tactics are very clear is to limit Curry, let the Warriors other players shoot, and finally they won the victory, Klay, Poole and other young players were in a slump, became the key to the Warriors' loss, and the team, in addition to Curry, the most consistent scoring point was Wiggins, and there were too few firepower points, resulting in the Warriors being targeted.
The goal of the Spurs this season is very clear, that is, to train young players, and then compete for the Venbanya, the last game Spurs did not want to win the league's first Bucks, but Alphabet brother, Holladay and other core players have been absent, and the Spurs young players played really well, Johnson, Sohan, Vassell, Boltel have shown strong offensive and defensive ability, and motivational Gobessie, all played the best performance of their careers, and finally they defeated the Bucks, after the game Popovich was very angry about this victory, he angry Bessie, Thinking he ruined the team's plans, it's clear that Popovich really didn't want to win. It's just that strength does not allow.
The Warriors are expected to win over the Spurs and avoid a losing streak.
The mood of the two teams and the goal of the season are different, which also makes the matchup process However, although it is a back-to-back game, Curry has said that he will play against the Spurs, Curry's play is definitely good news for the Warriors, however, the Warriors want to win against the Spurs is not so easy, first of all, the Spurs are better than the Warriors' physical fitness, they are not back-to-back games, plus the team roster is younger, against the defending champion, these young players face Curry, will definitely give it their all, although Popovich does not want to win, But there will be no exemption in the foreign king's order, and this game is destined to be glued.
Secondly, the Warriors want to win, Kerr must give up some young players, like Kuminga, these players, it is best not to play, when Curry is tired, you can arrange for Pul to play some more time, the team's defense must improve, Klay needs to find the touch as soon as possible, the best defense for young teams to beat them is defense, can't let them play crazy, once they go crazy, it is difficult for the Warriors to hold their offense. At home, as long as they can play their own style, I personally am more optimistic that the Warriors can win, and Cole will send another fragment of the Venbanyama to Popovich.
