From the championship to being bullied, the poor must have something to hate! The strongest team in the league should be dispersed

The NBA regular season has been played for more than a month, due to the introduction of the midseason mechanism for the first time this season, coupled with attractive bonuses, many teams have shown strong competitiveness, the Timberwolves started 17-4, leading with more than 80% wins, not only the first in the West, but also the first in the league! The Thunder is the most balanced team on both offensive and defensive ends this season, sixth in the league in offensive efficiency, third in the league in defensive efficiency, and third in the league in shooting percentage.

But there is one team that is going backwards. The Warriors started with 6 wins and 2 losses, once ranked second in the West, but in the last 14 games, they lost 10 of them! And Paul's ball-holding attributes can share the pressure on Curry. However, as Paul approaches the age of 39 and his physical condition deteriorates, it is unrealistic to expect him to contribute consistent scoring. Moreover, there are two natural shortcomings in the Warriors lineup: there are too many guards, the overall height is seriously insufficient, and the interior line is actually only supported by Dream Green, Looney and Saric;

In addition, the Warriors are also the only team that "often rolls over" this season, and played several games with the Thunder, one lead of 18 points was reversed, one lead of 14 points was reversed, the lead of the Kings was reversed by 24 points, and the lead of the Clippers was eliminated by 22 points! Statistics show that the Warriors have lost 5 games this season when they led the opponent by double digits, the only one in the league! In response, Bay Area columnist Gozan raised his own questions: Why did Kerr stick to the veteran-dominated starting lineup, why insisted that they stay on the court at the end of the game, even if it was inefficient? and the Fish Belly Trail Blazers had to adjust the starting lineup according to different matchups after the game (which ended up winning by only four points). But immediately after the game against the Thunder, Kerr said: We don't have to adjust, I want to continue to give them a chance!

Who is the least deserving starter in the Warriors? The answer is obvious: Klay! This season, he averaged 15.8 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2 turnovers per game, with a two-point shooting rate of 40.4%+35.4% and an effective shooting rate of only 50.7%, ranking 211th in the league! Klay has three major problems: first, he plays very selfishly in the contract year, cares about statistics very much, has some strong shots and excessive ball holding, which disrupts the team's rhythm; second, he has no defense at all, the Thunder forward blue-collar Jayway, passing Klay is like crossing the road in the morning, and he doesn't need to accelerate; third, he likes to break through with the ball very much in the past two years, and he doesn't have that physical condition, and his speed has dropped significantly, and the most direct result is either a mistake or a cap. Winning the start does not mean that Klay is incapable, but that he needs to know himself clearly!

Moody, as Klay's replacement, averages 8.5 points per game, has a true shooting percentage of nearly 60%, and is in the top 45 in the league in defensive efficiency (Klay is 227th in the league), in fact, Moody is ready to get up, he just needs more time. There was a scene in the previous game against the Lakers that stood out to me, in the third quarter, Kerr signaled for a substitution, and when Klay re-entered the game, Moody turned his head and immediately walked to the bench, but Kerr immediately signaled that it was Kuminga who was replaced. Clay has suffered a series of cruciate ligament and Achilles tendon injuries, and he can return and win the championship with the team, which is worthy of respect, and his experience is also pitiful and worthy of sympathy. But the hateful thing is that when Clay is no longer able to contribute energy steadily, he still stubbornly stands in his position and refuses to let others come up.

According to rough statistics, the Warriors have lost 10 of the last 14 games, and Curry has played 12 of them, with a total of 42 turnovers, at least 15 of which were caused by finding Klay! Losing to teams such as the Clippers, Thunder, and Nuggets, it is completely understandable that the overall strength of the Warriors is inferior to them. But being forced to the last moment by the Trail Blazers and Spurs, relying on the opponent's mistakes to lock up the win, it really can't be said, this has reached the point where everyone is bullied! Compared with Klay, Wiggins's performance is not good, but no one in the Warriors can replace Wiggins, Kuminga is a free man who is free from the system, Klay is a problem that everyone has seen, but Kerr stubbornly chooses to continue to use, two guesses: let Klay take the initiative to ask for a substitute, or try the law.

The Warriors spend $210 million in salary this season, which is close to $400 million including the super luxury tax penalty, which is enough to feed 2-3 competitive teams (Timberwolves overall salary 165 million, Thunder overall salary 155 million, Magic third place in the East, overall salary 130 million). Could it be that the owner Rugerb spent money just to find Klay in shape? Just to meet the great goal of the brothers' basketball? Last summer (21-22 season), the Warriors were the champions, and in just one and a half years, they fell into such a situation, it was time to break up, Curry should have let Klay and Green, the two "good brothers", leave!
