The Warriors have had an excellent overall record during this period, winning nine of their last ten games. Many fans admit that if the Warriors had maintained this form at the beginning of the season, they might have already locked up a playoff spot. The Warriors' outstanding performance during this period is of course inseparable from Curry's performance. As the leader of the team, Curry has always been able to step up and turn the tide when it matters most. He's certainly been a major contributor to the Warriors' winning streak during this period.
But we can't give all the credit to Curry. The Warriors also have a lot of players who are fully recovered. Including Thompson's warm-up feel and Green's offensive and defensive performances. And Paul is starting to improve his performance on the offensive end. However, the editor believes that the main reason for the Warriors' excellent record during this period is that in addition to Curry's excellent performance, the second most important person should be Wiggins.
Why have the Warriors been so good lately? Because when they come up against any team, Wiggins will focus on the opposing arrowheads. Wiggins is now fully in the form of the Warriors' championship in '22. According to some data, Wiggins averaged 16.3 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game in April, shooting 44% from three-point range, 48% from the field and 90% from the free throw line. That said, Wiggins played a very consistent performance, and he was very consistent on both ends of the floor.
This is one of the main reasons why the Warriors were able to win. Because Wiggins is currently the Warriors' best defender on the perimeter. You'll find that the arrowhead on the opposite side is now not handed over to Thompson to defend, but to Wiggins. If Wiggins can do a good job of limiting the core of the opposing side in one game, then the Warriors will win this game relatively easily.
Wiggins is actually in the Warriors, and he should be in the position of the fourth. Even in the process of the Warriors winning the championship in '22, he played a role second only to Curry. So if Wiggins can deliver a consistent performance, then the Warriors are really a tiger. Because Wiggins has been out of shape for most of the season and has experienced absences. We hope Wiggins can maintain his current form throughout the season. Only then will the Warriors be able to stay competitive.
Fortunately, it's not too late, and if the Warriors make the playoffs, hopefully Wiggins can return to the form he was in when he won the championship, so that the Warriors will not be afraid of any opponent. Because they have a real perimeter defensive gate.
