The Warriors are not in good shape this season, the core Wiggins and Thompson have declined significantly, Green has been suspended for many games, and now Paul is also injured, the team can be said to be troubled internally and externally, only achieving a 17-19 record, ranking 11th in the West, and not even entering the play-in ranks. However, the decline of the Warriors is also an inevitable result, because the core players have also become veterans. When Curry only scored 9 points on 2-of-14 shooting, he would discover the horror of Lao Zhan.
The Warriors sat at home today to meet the challenge of the Raptors, but the game went unexpectedly, the Warriors fell behind 28-36 in the first quarter, but were beaten 40-21 in the second quarter, and the Warriors were already behind by 27 points at halftime, and the game went into garbage time. RJ Barrett on the opposite side had a dumpling and blasted 37 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Siakam was the Warriors' trade target, and he contributed 16 points, six rebounds and six assists. However, the Warriors players are not performing well, and if they want to be a bargaining chip, I am afraid that the Raptors are not interested.
Wiggins started today, but he was still in bad shape, scoring just three points on 1-of-6 shooting. Thompson was the team's top performer, scoring 25 points and diting out three assists on 10-of-15 shooting. The boss Curry is completely lost, playing 30 minutes in this game, hitting only 2 of 14 shots in the game, and 0 of 9 three-pointers, only 9 points and 6 assists. He also has a plus/minus of -17, and it's not an exaggeration to say he's undercover.
To say that Curry didn't want to score today must be fake, after all, he made nine three-pointers, including many open opportunities. It's worth mentioning that just 20 days ago, Curry also had a bad game, when the Warriors played against the Trail Blazers, although they beat the Trail Blazers 118-114. But Curry also shot 2-of-12 from the field and 0-of-8 from three-point range, scoring only 7 points. In just 1 month, Curry has 2 games and no more than 10 points.
It was also at this time that fans began to sigh that James was so crazy. James is now in double figures in 1,185 consecutive games. In today's game against the Clippers, he also got 25 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, continuing the record. Since January 2007, Lao Zhan has scored a double-double in every game for 17 consecutive years, ranking first in history.
You must know that no matter how strong a star is, there are nights when they don't feel good, and Curry is the best example, scoring single digits in 2 games in a month. Not only that, but many stars have suffered injuries and the record of consecutive doubles will be interrupted. But Lao Zhan has not experienced major injuries for 17 consecutive years, and no matter how bad his state is, he can score more than 10 points. Curry has already declined significantly at the age of 35, but Lao Zhan is 39 years old, and it is crazy to maintain such a performance.
