The Warriors reversed Green Kai, Curry reappeared miracles, Thompson regained confidence, Kerr changed tactics, and Green Kai was powerless In the history of the NBA, there is a team that has created countless miracles, and they are the Golden State Warriors.
In the '22 playoffs, they defeated the Nuggets, Grizzlies, Mavericks and Green to win their fourth championship trophy with the native triumvirate of Curry, Thompson and Green, as well as the efforts of a group of nobodies.
At that time, the Warriors were known as one of the strongest teams in history, and their style of play was called "beautiful basketball".
However, the good times were short-lived, and the glory of the Warriors was soon shattered.
Last season, they were the defending champions, but were eliminated by the Bucks in the Western Conference semifinals and missed out on a four-game winning streak.
This offseason, they brought in Paul and traded Poole in an attempt to rebuild the team's chemistry.
However, the performance of the new season has been a big disappointment.
With Wiggins and Thompson's declining form, Green's constant red cards, and Kerr's stubborn and conservative tactics, the Warriors only finished 13-14, ranked 11th in the West, and even fell out of the play-in range.
Such a warrior makes one wonder if they still qualify for the playoffs, let alone compete for a championship.
However, the Warriors did not give up, and they still have a heart that will not admit defeat.
In a recent game, they faced the leaders of the East, Boston Green Kai.
Green Kai is a young and dynamic team with superstars like Tatum and Jaylen Brown, as well as a slew of great role players.
With a 25-6 record, they sit first in the East and are one of the favorites to win the title this season.
Such an opponent is undoubtedly a huge challenge for the Warriors.
From the start of the game, Green Kai showed their strong strength, hitting three-pointers frequently from the outside, and using their height and strength advantage on the inside, constantly scoring and grabbing rebounds.
The Warriors, on the other hand, are a bit overwhelmed, their defense is full of holes, and on the offensive end, no one but Curry has found their groove.
By the end of the third quarter, Green Kai had already led the Warriors by 17 points, and it looked like the game was out of luck.
However, the Warriors did not give up, and they still have a heart that will not admit defeat.
In the fourth quarter, they launched a frantic counterattack, their offense became more fluid and flexible, and their defense became more aggressive and tight.
Their core players, Curry and Thompson, also broke out at the same time, and they combined to shoot nine three-pointers to lead the Warriors all the way to chase points.
In the final minute, Curry hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer to tie the score and send the game into overtime.
In overtime, the Warriors were more aggressive, their defense was tighter, and their offense was more efficient.
Their rookies, Kuminga and Davis, also stepped up in key moments, scoring five and four points respectively to add firepower to the Warriors.
The Green Kais, on the other hand, were a little overwhelmed, their outside line was inaccurate, and their interior line was also limited by the Warriors' defense.
Their star stars, Tatum and Jaylen Brown, also lost their luck in overtime, scoring just two points and making turnovers.
In the end, the Warriors completed a shocking comeback with a score of 132-126, defeated Green Kai, and won a victory.
This victory, for the Warriors, is undoubtedly a timely rain, it gives them a glimmer of hope, but also allows them to regain some confidence.
In this victory, we can see that the three key factors for the Warriors are: Thompson's form has picked up.
Thompson is the Warriors' second-leading scorer, and his shooting ability is one of the strongest in NBA history.
However, in the early part of the new season, his form has dropped significantly, his points, rebounds, assists and shooting percentages have dropped, and his defense has not been as good as before.
This has affected both the Warriors' offense and defense, and they have struggled to play consistently.
However, in recent games, Thompson's form has started to pick up, with his points, rebounds, assists and shooting percentages rising, and his defense has become more aggressive.
In the game with Green Kai, he scored 30 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists, shot 6 three-pointers, and formed the Splash Brothers with Curry, making a great contribution to the Warriors' reversal.
If Thompson can maintain this form, then the Warriors' offense and defense will improve greatly, and they will have more chances to win games.
Cole's tactical adjustments.
Kerr is the head coach of the Warriors, he has led the Warriors to three championships, and his tactical thinking is also considered to be very advanced and innovative.
However, in the early part of the new season, he was a bit stubborn and conservative, always insisting on starting Wiggins and Thompson at the expense of the other young players in the team, and he did not make timely adjustments to the characteristics of the opponent and the situation on the court.
The Warriors' style of play is dominant.
The Warriors' style of play is characterized by fast passing and shooting, their offense is fast-paced, their three-point ability is strong, and their lineup is flexible.
This style of play is very difficult for Lu Kai to deal with.
Because Green Kai is also a team that focuses on the outside line, their inside line is not strong, and their system and stars are also based on the magic ball.
In such a situation, it is difficult for them to compete with the Warriors on the outside, because the Warriors have a super sharpshooter like Curry, who can hit consecutive three-pointers in a short period of time, while Green Kai has no one who can keep up with his pace and efficiency.
And on the inside, Green Kai can't dominate either, as the Warriors' defense is tight, and they can use speed and agility to compensate for the disadvantage in height and strength.
Moreover, the stars of Green Kai, Tatum and Jaylen Brown, although very talented, have not yet reached the level of supergiants, and they often lose their composure and stability at critical moments, and cannot lead the team to victory.
Therefore, in the case of a similar style of play, as long as the Warriors can play their own characteristics, they may be able to defeat Green Kai.
To sum up, the Warriors showed their unyielding spirit in the game against Green Kai, and they took advantage of Thompson's resurgence, Kerr's tactical adjustments, and the advantage of the style of play to complete a stunning comeback and win a victory.
This victory, for the Warriors, was an important turning point, it gave them a glimmer of life and gave them some confidence back.
Of course, this victory does not mean that the Warriors will be able to return to the top, they still have a lot of problems and difficulties to solve, and they still need more effort and perseverance to be able to get back on track and become a strong team again.
However, we believe that as long as the Warriors still have a heart that does not admit defeat, as long as they still have a superstar like Curry, as long as they have a magical combination like the Splash Brothers, as long as they have a good coach like Kerr, they may create miracles again, they may win the championship again, and they may let us see "beautiful basketball" again.
2024 Table Tennis Imagination: Ma Long Will Win the 30th World Championship Fan Zhendong and Sun Yingsha compete for the 11th place in the Grand SlamTable tennis is China's national sport and one of China's most advantageous projects on the world sports stage.
In the past few decades, the Chinese table tennis team has created countless glories, cultivated countless famous players, won glory for the country and increased prestige for the people.
As 2023 comes to an end, we can't help but look forward to the table tennis world in 2024, what events are worth looking forward to, what players are worth paying attention to, what records are worth trying, and what are the questions worth thinking about.
Important events in 2024 2024 is an important year for the table tennis world, as there are two most influential events that will be held in this year, namely the World Table Tennis Championships and the Olympic Games.
The World Table Tennis Championships is the highest level of table tennis events, which are held every two years and are divided into two forms: individual competitions and team competitions, which are carried out in turn.
The 2024 World Table Tennis Championships will be a single event, tentatively set for Paris, France.
This will be the first time in 21 years since 2003 that the World Table Tennis Championships will return to Paris, and it will also be the first time in 7 years since 2017 that the World Table Tennis Championships will return to Europe.
The World Table Tennis Championships is the highest honor for table tennis players and the highest level of display in the table tennis world.
In history, the Chinese table tennis team's achievements in the World Table Tennis Championships are unparalleled, winning a total of 29 men's singles, 24 women's singles, 22 men's doubles, 23 women's doubles, 21 mixed doubles, 22 men's team, and 22 women's team championships, a total of 163 championships, accounting for nearly half of the total number of World Table Tennis Championships champions.
At the last 2019 World Table Tennis Championships in Budapest, the Chinese team swept all five individual championships, once again proving their strength and dominance.
In the 2024 World Table Tennis Championships, the goal of the Chinese team is undoubtedly to continue to maintain such glory and achieve a comprehensive gold medal again.
However, this is not an easy thing to do, because the opponents of the Chinese team are also constantly improving, constantly challenging and rising.
In recent years, we have seen some outstanding performances of non-Chinese players, such as Japan's Tomokazu Zhangmoto, Miu Hirano, Misei Ito, Chinese Taipei's Lin Yunru and Zheng Yijing, South Korea's Shin Yucan, Shin Huijuan, Germany's Boll and Solgar, Sweden's Falke, Carlsen and so on.
These players all have good strength, strong fighting spirit, and the spirit of not admitting defeat, and they are all eager to make breakthroughs, gains, and achievements in the World Table Tennis Championships.
They will be the biggest threat to the Chinese team, and they will also be the biggest motivation for the Chinese team.
The Olympic Games are the highest event in the world of sport and one of the most important events in table tennis.
The 2024 Olympics will be held in Paris, France, which will be the third time Paris has hosted the Olympics and the sixth time that France has hosted the Olympic Games.
It will be a historic Olympics as it will be the first to implement a new Olympic agenda and the first to add several new sports, such as rock climbing, skateboarding, surfing, karate, and more.
Table tennis has been a gold medal for the Chinese team since it first entered the Olympic Games in 1988, and it is also a source of pride and self-confidence for the Chinese team.
In the past nine Olympic Games, the Chinese team has won a total of 28 gold medals, accounting for nearly eighty percent of the total number of gold medals in table tennis.
At the last Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, the Chinese team once again completed the four gold medals in men's singles, women's singles, men's team and women's team, continuing the tradition of winning gold in all its glory since the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
In the 2024 Olympic Games, the format of table tennis will be changed, from the original four individual events to five individual events, and mixed doubles events will be added.
This is both an opportunity and a challenge for the Chinese team.
The challenge is that the Chinese team will be able to make history by winning all five gold medals at the Olympics, but the challenge is that the Chinese team will need to be ready for the mixed doubles event and find the best pair to cope with the competition from other countries.
At the Tokyo Olympics, China's mixed doubles pair of Xu Xin and Liu Shiwen swept Japan's Mizutani Hayabusa and Misei Ito 4-0 in the final to win their first mixed doubles gold medal.
However, Xu Xin and Liu Shiwen are both veterans over 30 years old, and it remains to be seen whether they can maintain their form, whether they can continue to work together, and whether they can reach the Olympic podium again.
It is also worth paying attention to whether the Chinese team has other mixed doubles combinations that can take over their baton.
Important players in 2024 In the table tennis world in 2024, in addition to important events, there are also important players.
Some of these players are veterans who have already made a name for themselves, some are rising stars, and some are challengers with special missions, and they will all play their part on the table tennis stage in 2024, show their style and create their own legends.
