The Kings taught the Warriors a lesson on their home court, and it was no small lesson! In the end, the Warriors won by 15 points, and the Warriors ended in a bleak end. Clay? Hehe, he was really invisible in this game! Eight shots and zero shots, buddy didn't score a point, is this still the sharpshooter we are familiar with?
At the beginning of the game, Dream Chasing gave a good start, and the three-point shot pierced the heart. However, Murray on the opposite side immediately responded to the ball with color and precision, and this time the good show was staged. The two teams go back and forth, and three-point shots have sprung up one after another. Murray's buddy was on fire, and his back-to-back hits gave the Kings the upper hand. On the Warriors' side, Klay seemed to have changed people, and there was no achievement on the offensive end, and the whole first half seemed to be sleepwalking.
The Kings' Fox and Sa Jr. showed their scoring prowess, with Fox being unstoppable and attacking under the basket like no one. And Xiao Sa was not to be outdone, scoring and taking the board to help the Kings lead the Warriors at halftime.
At the beginning of the second half, Fox's performance was more intense, with layups, three-pointers, everything, and the Warriors' defense was like it didn't exist for him. At one point, the Kings extended their lead to 15 points, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Warriors. On the Warriors' side, Curry did his best, scoring three points in a row to try to stop the bleeding for the team. But the king's offensive was surging like a tide, and the warriors were overwhelmed.
In the final quarter of the game, although the Warriors tried to counterattack, the King's offense was too sharp, and the Warriors were never able to narrow the difference. The Kings ended the game with a big win, while the Warriors went out in a crushing defeat.
Clay in particular, was a surprise in this game. I don't know if the news of his departure affected his mentality, and Clay didn't find a feeling throughout the game. The shooting that doesn't go in, the defense full of holes, it's really distressing to watch. Before the game, he also swore that he was satisfied with his achievements in the Warriors, and he didn't know what he felt like in his heart with such a performance.
The future of the Warriors now seems to be full of uncertainties. Curry and Klay were once the mainstays of the team, and now it seems like the time has come to rethink their futures. With the rise of young players and the retirement of veterans, the Warriors will not only have to rebuild, but also find new competitiveness in the transition between the old and the new.
This game has undoubtedly taught the Warriors a lesson, maybe it's a new beginning, maybe it's an end. Either way, Warriors fans will surely hope this is just an episode rather than a preview of what will happen to the future. Klay, and the Warriors, have come to make a change. Hopefully they can find their way out and get back to the top again.
