However, the "new combination" did not let the Warriors go far. They died in the case of a broken left hand in Curry. After that, Green replaced Curry to carry the banner of the Warriors' leader. The outside world expected Green to release his scoring ability and lead the Warriors into the playoffs without scoring. However, during his cooperation with Russell (Wiggins), the Warriors only achieved the worst record in the league of 15 wins and 50 losses. Obviously, Green, who averaged 8.0 points, 6.2 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game, only got three singles. Obviously, he can't afford the glory of "three crowns in five years" ...
When the Warriors only had two All-Stars, Green and Russell (or Wiggins), and Cole's tactical system was no longer magical, Durant had left new york. At this time, if the Warriors want to return to the championship, they can only rely on the Huashui brothers, their offensive firepower, their tacit running cooperation, and their magical three-pointer shooting leading the league. ...
Unfortunately, just as Thompson has started to resume training and actively prepare for the new season, he was injured in an ordinary training match in the offseason, and was finally diagnosed with a torn achilles tendon in his right leg, which was reimbursed again in the season.
Thompson's Achilles tendon tear-it is no less than a bolt from the blue for the warriors who are determined to rely on the Splash Brothers to return to the championship. After all, in order to maintain the original lineup of the Warriors, the management of the Warriors gave Thompson and Green a big contract of 1 100 million yuan respectively, which led to the luxury tax that they need to pay in the new season has ranked first in the league. If you pay the luxury tax that ranks first in the league, but the strength of the team can't even enter the championship or even the playoffs, how pathetic is this team?
In the first game of the season, Curry scored 7 shots for the Nets 2 1, and the offensive end felt poor. However, he inherited the style of "three crowns in five years", made all-out assists and finally scored 20 points 10 assists. However, neither Wiggins nor Ubray found a feeling in the team. In the end, Warriors lost to the Nets led by Durant and Owen 99- 125, and lost 26 points.
In the second world war of the season, Bucks made 6 shots in Curry 17. After gaining muscle in the offseason, I still haven't found the feel, so I still take the series team as the main team after taking the ball. However, Wiggins and Ubray in the team still didn't play the offensive state, only got 15 points, even far less than the rookie Wiseman's 18 points. Curry, who finally got 19 points and 6 assists, led the Warriors to beat the Bucks 99- 138 and lost 39 points this time. ...
In the first two games of the season, the Warriors lost 65 points. No matter facing the Nets or Bucks, with their lineup, style and state, there is no chance to win. However, these two games also made Curry deeply realize that if the team wants to win, no one can rely on Thompson and Durant, and ultimately they have to rely on themselves.
In the third season of Bulls, Curry made 25 shots 1 1. In this game, regardless of his shooting percentage, Curry pushed his shooting from 19 in the previous two games to 25 shots and got 36 points, 2 rebounds and 6 assists. Curry hit the offensive end so hard that the Warriors didn't lock the victory in advance, but were deadlocked with the Bulls until the last moment. With Damian Lee's last 3-pointer of 1.7 seconds, the Warriors struggled to win the Bulls with 129- 128. You know, the Bulls were not a playoff team last season.
In the fourth game of the season, the Pistons shot 9 of 17 in Curry. He knew that he couldn't open the score gap with the bulls in the last game because his scoring was not efficient enough. So in this game, Curry paid more attention to the choice of shooting and improved the scoring efficiency. In the end, he got 3 1 point, 5 rebounds and 6 assists with a shooting percentage of 52.9%, and the Warriors won the game with 1 16- 106.
Although the Warriors' opponents in these two games are not strong, and the score is not much advantage, it makes Curry clear the idea of driving the team with his efficient attack. After all, Wiggins, Ubray and others are unreliable.
Pioneers of two world wars, one win and one loss: 19 western conference finals. In the absence of Durant, Curry averaged 36.5 points, 8.3 rebounds and 7.3 assists to "adjust" the Blazers' double guns and won the reputation of "the king of the West". I thought that facing this old opponent again, the warrior would not be defeated even if he lost. However, in the case of Curry's 9-for-20 shooting, 26 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists, it was not unexpected that the Warriors lost to the Blazers 98- 123, and there was something wrong with the offensive end. Therefore, when he was a pioneer in World War II, Curry became popular early. He scored 62 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists from 3 1 shot 18, and led the Warriors to win the game with 137- 122. ...
Two wars with Clippers, one win and one loss: The Clippers have George and Leonard, who are still one of the most likely teams to reach the Western Conference finals this season. Whether you can win the Clippers or not, you can also see the upper limit of the Warriors to some extent. But in the first game of Clippers, Curry only got 13 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists under Beverly's "crazy" defense and Tyrone Lu's aim, and the Warriors lost the game with 10 1- 108. So in the second round, just like facing the Blazers, the team released its firepower early, and 1 105+ 105 scored 38 points to beat the Clippers duo. ...
Looking at the Warriors' nine games in the new season, Curry can't score 30 points in a single game, such as facing the Nets 20 points, Bucks 19 points, Blazers 26 points and Clippers 13 points; There is no doubt that they all lost the game in the end. Mainly because the current warriors can't find a stable and reliable scoring point on the offensive end except Curry. Ubray 13% three-point hit rate, Wiggins 17.6, Green 2.8, Wiseman 1 1.0, has not yet fully developed. Warriors really don't have anyone to rely on on on the offensive end except Curry. Under such circumstances, if the Warriors still want to win, there is really only one way for Curry to score efficiently.
Judging from the four wins and two losses of Warriors, Blazers and Clippers, Curry scored 62 points and 38 points in the two games won respectively, making a total of 100 points. In fact, it can be seen that when the Warriors beat teams such as Bulls, Pistons and Kings that have a high probability of not entering the playoffs, they only need Curry to remain efficient to win. But in the face of playoff teams like Trailblazers and Clippers, if Curry doesn't break out on the offensive end and score high points efficiently, then the Warriors have no chance of winning. After all, these two teams are dual-core, and Curry must lead the Warriors to win with one enemy and two.
But now the Warriors have to rely on 32-year-old Curry to break out on the offensive end to win, which is the last thing I want to see. ...
After the "OK Team" won three consecutive championships for the Lakers at the beginning of the new century, the Lakers have been unable to reach the finals. But after getting Gasol in 2008, Kobe led the Lakers to the finals for three consecutive years and won two championships. Kobe Bryant, at his peak, missed the finals in the next two years. So in the off-season of 20 12, the Lakers management got Howard through the four-way trade of Nuggets, 76ers and Magic, and also got Steve Nash through the first signing, and finally formed the "Kobe+Howard+Gasol+Nash" four giants combination. After the formation of the Big Four, the goal of the Lakers in the new season is actually very clear, that is, taking advantage of Kobe's last peak and winning several championships.
Although the "Four Lineups" are luxurious, Nash is on the verge of retiring, averaging only 12.7 points and 6.7 boards per game; Gasol is no longer the style of two consecutive championships, only 13.7 points and 8.6 boards; However, the most anticipated player, Howard, had a fight with Kobe's "leader". Coupled with his back injury, he couldn't play the strength of the three-time best defensive player at all, but only contributed 17. 1 point and 12.4 rebounds.
There are four teams, but they can't give full play. With 10 left in the game, the Lakers are still competing with the Jazz for the eighth place, and it is impossible to determine the number of playoff places. Just as outside experts and fans were cynical about the Lakers and Kobe, Kobe stood up and shouldered the team again. Against Fisher King, Kobe got 19 points, 9 rebounds 14 assists; Score 23 points 1 1 board 1 1 help in 47 minutes against the lone ranger; Facing the grizzlies, he scored 24 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists. But against the Clippers, Kobe's 25 points, 7 rebounds 10 assists failed to bring victory to the Lakers, which made him work harder later. In the face of the Hornets, he scored 30 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists; In the face of the Blazers, he scored 47 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists, and in the face of the Warriors, he scored 34 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists;
In these seven games, Kobe played the whole game twice, averaging 45.6 minutes, scoring 28.9 points, 7.3 rebounds and 8.4 assists, winning six rare victories for the Lakers and finally catching the last bus in the playoffs. The price Kobe paid was that he broke his achilles tendon due to overwork in the game against the Warriors. ...
In the 15- 16 season, Kobe felt that his health and state were far from what they used to be, so he announced his retirement in advance. In the end, Kobe's personal performance declined further this season, with only 17.6 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists, and his shooting percentage dropped to a career low of 35.8%. ...
In fact, the turning point at the end of Kobe's career was the game in which he led the team to the playoffs alone, but his achilles tendon broke. If it weren't for the sharp drop in speed and explosive force caused by the rupture of Achilles tendon, with Kobe's skills, even if he is 40 years old, nothing is impossible.
Nowadays, when Curry led the team at the beginning of the season and his personal performance was not good, he was ridiculed and questioned, which was similar to the situation when Kobe chose to stand up and carry the Lakers to the playoffs alone. Now Curry's choice, like Kobe Bryant's, is to squeeze his potential and carry the Warriors to the playoffs alone. But Kobe has taught us a lesson. Now Curry still chooses one person to lead a team to the playoffs. This is the last thing I want to see.
After all, Curry is not as strong as Shao Wei and James. Shao Wei can lead Thunder into the playoffs with his youth and physical quality. James can lead the Cavaliers into the finals with his historical physical strength and injury resistance (he was also injured during the Lakers period); However, although Curry has historical projection ability, he has no historical physical fitness, even worse than Kobe's physical fitness.
Nowadays, Curry, who is relatively thin, chooses a person to lead the Warriors into the playoffs, which means that his score, rebounds, assists and average playing time will increase. Under such a burden, can Curry's body bear it? Especially in the face of playoff teams such as the Trailblazers with 62 points and the Clippers with 38 points, Curry has tried his best to score 100 points in two wars (it didn't reach a career high until he was 32 years old), and actually only won two games. But how many playoff teams are waiting for the Warriors in the future? How many more battles can Curry fight?
Not strong enough+previous "glass physique" +32-year-old age, which means that Curry will be more vulnerable than James, Kobe, Shao Wei, etc. Once he is seriously injured again, the 32-year-old Curry may not really return to the peak.
I hope that in the future, Green+Ubray+Wiggins can fulfill their talents and values, so that Curry can play more easily and play longer. ...
