Watch the NBA | Beyond Curry's lore, what do you understand?

At 7:32 in the first quarter, Thompson transitioned to advance, and Nurkic stepped back to block the basket route, but Thompson still went deep into the paint hinterland, and according to his previous temper, a stop-and-go mid-range or throw-in to solve the battle should be the first choice. Of course he has the ability and authority to shoot such a ball. But Thompson didn't, he was almost on the verge of doing so, and suddenly changed his mind after the ball start. After a moment of hesitation, Kuminga's path to the right three-point line was seen through by Beal. Steal, fast break, Beal completes the dunk.

It's not hard to guess Thompson's mood. He doesn't need the team to talk to him about anything, he knows his situation. Changing the style of play is already a necessity, and it is not realistic to transform without damage overnight. On the left is the muscle memory that has been cultivated over the years, and on the right is the idea of self-discipline that flashes through my mind. "You shouldn't come hard, there are teammates on the right", making decisions in the game often can't be thought twice, and the competition between electric lights and flints makes the choices outside the habit seem half a beat slower.

Tang Shen struggled, because of his temperament, it was not appropriate to follow the group, and before he smoothed everything out, he had to accept the current embarrassing position.

In the last five games, with the exception of the Hawks, the team has been short of staff, with Thompson playing less than 30 minutes, while Podemski has been the Warriors' most minutes (34.2 minutes) in the same period. In those five games, Thompson had a 19.9% turnover, which is further down from what has already been lowered this season. Of course, the 41.7% true shooting percentage in these five games shows that the reduction of Tang Shen's ball possession is justified.

Thompson won't be this iron all the time, but just as Wiggins' continued slump in the early stages of the season was compressed, he needs a cool-down period. Podzemski's version of the ultimate lineup — Poger, Curry, Wiggins, Kuminga, Green — currently has 182 rounds in use, outscoring opponents by 40.1 points per 100 possessions, making it the Warriors' most dominant five-man team at the moment. And the two most interesting stats of this lineup are:

The turnover rate is down to a staggering 7.7 percent, nearly double the team's season average of 14.5 percent.

The 15.4 per cent turnover rate was also higher than the team's season average of 12.5 per cent.

Green Mangzui three forwards + Curry, with Po Jie or with Tang Shen, at the data level, the biggest difference is here. Boje ranks second in the league in total offensive fouls this season, an ability that fits perfectly into the team's small-ball defensive system. His 3.09 assist-to-turnover ratio is the best for any team outside of Paul and the departed Joseph, and his ability to feed and transfer the ball is a good complement to Curry, Wiggins, and Kuminga, who are biased towards the finishing position.

Bogey's impact on team rebounding isn't reflected in the lineup's stats, but the season's large sample size and some clips from the game tell the story. In the second quarter against the Suns, Okogie messed up again, and the Warriors' nightmare against the Suns this season is suspected to be repeated. Everything else is fine, but the hardest thing for Okogie to do for the Warriors is his top-tier punch board at the same position. At this time, you will find that Pojie, who "grabs rebounds by his own people", is a suitable candidate for Okogie.

Cole wants a second Iguodala. It's unrealistic, and it's really not easy to get a forward with explosive athleticism and both size and ball intelligence, let alone make him feel at ease in the Warriors system. But it can still be seen that players who are close to them in positioning are like fish in water in the Warriors system. If Bojer's projection is as good as he was expected before the draft, then he and Kuminga are like two people who fused Thompson and Iguodala and then separated at random, one got the ball quotient and projection, and the other got the raw talent and main offense. Balanced, the five small are still the same.

Unfortunately, as feared at the start of the season, Boje's projection did get a bit watery. A reliable shooter shouldn't be shooting 64.2 percent from the free-throw line. Prior to the 2-of-4 three-point shooting against the Suns, Poger had missed a three-pointer in five games, and his throws and hooks were unreliable, thanks to a left-handed finish.

Boger's data sheet variation is very interesting:

In terms of three-point shooting, he was 35-of-84 shooting 41.7 percent before January. 15-of-57 so far in January, with a 26.3% shooting percentage. Outside projection is becoming more and more bankrupt;

But in terms of passing, he had 4.9 assists per 36 minutes and an assist-to-turnover ratio of 2.23 before January. 5.4 assists per 36 minutes and 4.9 assist-to-turnover ratios so far in January. Organizational talent is becoming more and more apparent.

Bojie is not similar to the names mentioned by Summer. He's nowhere near as precise as Kennard, and DiVincenzo doesn't have so many No. 1 roles. He also didn't have Reeves' stop-and-roll back. But he's more cautious on the ball and looks more like a point guard.

Caution can sometimes mean missed chances, and this was presented in the more advanced games of Poje as a fast-break set-up and cross-screens only for the outside. But that seems to have changed a bit lately, with Boje's shots bolder, and Curry's stunner shot was a bit more dangerous and a little bit faster and less angled, and the conversation shifted to "a discussion of the world's problems" after the game.

That's not the point, though, it's about this type of feeding.

If Boje can do this consistently, the Warriors will be able to activate more splashes and cross-screens and switch offense, both of which are of course what the Warriors should be in their best form.

This is important.

The Warriors' "three forwards + Curry", the significance of the defensive end is not difficult to understand, and the coexistence of the offensive end is definitely a problem. After all, the space for this lineup is not good. At present, the offensive end of this lineup can be opened, relying on this logic:

The opponent has a center to protect the basket and let Curry target;

The opponent does not have a center to protect the basket, and the talent advantage of the two forwards is played.

Against the Suns, this is reflected in the fact that at the end of the second quarter, Vogel went down Nurkic early, so the Warriors front line pierced the basket:

At the end of the fourth quarter, Vogel Nurkic came down late and was chased and dismantled by Ku.

The logic is tight, right?

But, after all, this is the Suns' defensive resource - many guards and slow centers.

There will always be teams that have good defensive resources, not so much afraid of Curry targeting the center, but also enough alignment and basket protection resources to deal with the Warriors' two forwards. In some games, the Warriors inevitably have to fight with the opponent to defend and play the constipation game, and the constipation game is in a sense about who has more opportunities and who has more simple opportunities. Whichever side can make more turnovers, grab more rebounds, and play fast breaks, the side is more likely to win. Well, think about Bojie's skill set – turnovers, rebounds, control turnovers, passing.

You'll love seeing the fast-break combination of Bojie and Kuminga.

The Warriors aren't usually a team that relies on frontal ball-handling to get the game done, and they'll avoid head-on bunkers if they can. Against the Suns, it was actually a game that Kuminga played a little hard. The Suns' defensive resources can't cover the two points of Kuminga and Wiggins, but the time point when Kuminga really makes a real effort is often in the transition period, and the period when the Suns have better alignment resources is also in the connection section. Royce O'Neal played for the Suns for the first time, and he added a little intensity to Kuming (at the end of the third quarter, Kuminga finally scored O'Neal 2+1, sitting on the ground and roaring in celebration, not for this one ball, but for the anger of the previous rounds).

If Vogel takes a few more minutes and O'Neal is in more trouble, the Warriors could have a little more trouble. Of course, there is no need to hold a Vogel meeting here, after all, basketball is also sophisticated, and newcomers will eat too much time from the old man when they come, which is not suitable for face.

Kuminga has taken on more and more attacking scenes, and his threat is growing, which is bound to be accompanied by more attention and pertinence from his opponents. How to make it easier for Kuminga to get to the basket under the shrink defense will become an important part of the Warriors' future tactical board.

The easiest way to do this is to block and disassemble between libraries.

Curry doesn't even need to really block people, he just needs to help Kuminga take the 45° swipe away so that he can get up and press deep enough, and it will be a lot easier. If the defensive formation continues to shrink and put pressure on Kumin, Curry could get a chance in that situation.

It's becoming a Warriors' game fixture.

There are also untapped approaches that are promising for the future. For example, this look.

Boje can get the ball in a more comfortable position for the scorer. It is also expected that opponents will focus on Podzemski's perimeter defensive weaknesses, making him a tactical partner to help his teammates find misalignments. If Curry is not on the strong side in an offensive initiation, and Curry becomes a containment point on the weak side rather than a fixed initiator, then the Warriors have a real means to punish the opponent's lack of defensive resources.

Whether this can be implemented depends on what kind of sparks can be sparked between Bojie, Kuminga, and Wiggins.

Objectively speaking, there are still a lot of problems for Podemsky. His passing talent is getting more and more blossoming, but it's not too long since he's squandered a conservative picture of squandering fast-break and air-cutting opportunities, and it needs a larger sample to stabilize. His raw talent dictates that he must live up to the projection expectations he had before the draft to get to a level high enough to take over the starting No. 1 spot. He's a smart defender, but in situations like Booker's crunch killings, you'd want him to be well hidden. There are some scenarios where Thompson is more reliable. After Paul's return, it will be difficult for Poje to continue to maintain his current playing time, at least in the position of backup point guard, the Warriors have no one to challenge Paul.

But Bojie may really have a bright future. Although he does not have the raw talent of violence, the skill direction he is good at has a good fit with Kuminga and the Warriors system. What this means, it's not hard to understand.

The next generation of leaders of the Warriors is also surnamed Ku, and the next generation of the Warriors' assistant may also be a cunning spokesperson.

Perhaps, only the world where honest people are injured has finally been achieved.
