The first person to leave the Warriors is basically confirmed, and he and the Warriors are not very compatible
The NBA regular season continues, and today the Warriors host the Nuggets, who lost 103-119. Curry was a little sluggish in this game, scoring 20 points and 4 assists on 1-of-10 three-point shooting. Although Thompson exploded in the first half, scoring 23 points off the bench, he didn't have much of a chance in the second half. Kuminga had 19 points and six rebounds today.
It's worth noting that the Warriors still used an 11-man rotation lineup for this game. The Warriors have been expanding their rotation during this time, and that's because the Warriors currently have so many people on their roster who can play, and that's when Paul doesn't return. If Paul returns, the playing time of the substitutes may be squeezed even more. Moody still didn't make it to the rotation today, and was dropped by Kerr again, only in the final garbage period.
It's not that Kerr doesn't want to develop Moody, you must know that Kuminga and Moody were in the same situation at that time, but now Kuminga has become a non-sale for the team, and Moody seems to have become a leftover, and the situation of the two people is completely different. There are two reasons for this, one is that Moody's individual talent and ability are not as good as Kuminga's, and the other is because Kuminga is not a good fit for the Warriors' system.
Attentive fans may notice that when Moody is on the field, he stops as soon as he receives the ball, and his connection with the rest of his teammates is severed. Kuminga has done this better than Moody so far, and Kuminga knows whether to attack or pass when he gets the ball. Moody, on the other hand, is currently hesitant and stagnant when he receives the ball. And Moody's three-point shooting percentage is also inconsistent at the moment. And in terms of breakthroughs, he doesn't have Kuminga's explosive ability, so it's very embarrassing. He is also inferior to Podzemsky in terms of playing spirituality. So he's the easiest player to replace.
If Paul returns, then Moody doesn't have many opportunities, and the Warriors themselves have a lot of personnel rotation. If nothing else, Moody could be traded by the Warriors this offseason, because now that the Warriors don't need to keep him, trading him could also save some salary space and some luxury tax. I have to say that Moody is indeed a pity, he should go to a team with a simple style of play and a bad record, only then may he have more opportunities to show himself.
