The Grizzlies beat the Warriors
Curry did his best 29+7+4
Warriors superstar Stephen Curry played 34 minutes, shooting 10-of-19, 4-of-8 from three-point range, 5-of-6 from the free-throw line, and had 29 points, 7 boards, 4 assists and 1 steal. Curry shot 53 percent from the field and scored a game-high score. In addition, Curry also shot a game-high of four 3-pointers on 50% shooting.
Warriors Curry
At one point, after trailing his opponent by 20 points, Curry led the team to close the single-digit margin on several occasions. However, in the face of the downturn of Poole and Green, the Grizzlies' all-people inside and outside, and the Warriors' large number of mistakes, Curry was unable to reverse the decline. Curry grabbed the most rebounds on the team and also made outstanding contributions to tandem teams. Curry has already done his best, but he is still defeated.
Poole, dream-chasing downturn
Warriors star Jordan Poole played 34 minutes, shooting 5-of-10 from the field, 2-of-5 from three-pointers and 10-of-10 from the free throw line, scoring 22 points, 3 boards, 4 assists and 1 steal. Poole had the second most turnovers of the game and did not perform well on the defensive end, being beaten by the opposing Jones, Dillon Brooks and Bane. In addition, Poole's plus-minus is still the lowest in the game at -33. Poole's performance can be described as very bad.
Draymond Green with Jordan Poole
Warriors star Drummond Green played 30 minutes, shooting 5-of-9, 0-of-1 from three-pointers and 6-of-6 from the free throw line, for 16 points, five boards, seven assists and three steals. Chasing Dreams had a game-high of five turnovers, and Drummond Green also failed to limit the opposing Jalen Jackson Jr. and Tillman. The Warriors had five more turnovers and 20 fewer inside points. As the Warriors' interior defensive general, Draymond Green is to blame.
Poole's poor play with Dream was an important reason why the Warriors, although they repeatedly pushed the margin to single digits, were unable to turn the tide and eventually suffered a rout.
Cole the batch
Warriors coach Steve Kerr, when facing the Grizzlies with strong impact and excellent frontcourt rebounding, changed the lineup and used a small lineup, which was the main reason why the Golden State Army was brutally beaten by opponents inside.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr
Kerr's superstition of small lineups and three-point shooting tactics has led to a lack of impact for the Warriors, which is the key to the Warriors' difficulty competing with the Grizzlies. Cole, who bears primary responsibility for the defeat of this game. Cole adjusted the lineup and on-field command for this game, and it really should be batched.
