Cole responds to comments about the loss caused by Sister Bo’s loss without scoring in Game 3

Basketball

According to an article by sports media ClutchPoints Braden Haner. The Golden State Warriors lost a crucial Game 3 at home, pointing the loss at Pojmsky, and Cole quickly responded to the false remarks.

Golden State Warriors lost a crucial Game 3 at home, losing 102-97 to the Minnesota Timberwolves in a back-and-forth battle, revealing a tough series without Curry. While Butler (33 points) and Kumingga (30 points) did their part to keep the Golden State Warriors alive, attention quickly turned to other role players — especially rookie Pojemsky’s poor performance. He has been outstanding in his first season, despite playing for nearly 20 minutes, but has no points in Game 3. But head coach Cole quickly refuted any view that his rookie lacks goals as a decisive factor in losing.

"If things turn around, we come here with a win, no one cares that he doesn't score," Cole said after the game. "He is not a big scorer, he is a basketball player. He does a lot of great things there, not limited to whether he scores on the court, but helps the team in many aspects." In fact, Sister Bo's value usually comes from rebounding and selfless passing. But with Curry missing due to a hamstring injury, the room for mistakes has disappeared, and the Warriors' offensive gap has become obvious and more people need to stand up.

The Warriors lost a must-win game at home

Despite Butler's tenacious score of 33 points, Kumingga made 11 of 18 shots at night, and the Warriors failed to break through the 100-point mark again in the third straight game. With Green’s foul out at the end of the fourth quarter, Curry was unable to play, and the Golden State Warriors were unable to keep up with Edwards, who exploded with 36 points – including a dagger-style bottom-line three-pointer with 1:19 left to give Minnesota room to breathe.

Golden State Warriors led 73-69 into the fourth quarter, but the Timberwolves climaxed 33-24 in the final moments with a triple-double from Edwards and Randall. Randall played a big role in the game, scoring 24 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds.

Nevertheless, the Warriors are still very devoted, even without Curry. They led by 5 points earlier in the fourth quarter, with Kumingga, Butler and Hield getting a key role, who hit a three-pointer in the last two minutes to narrow the score to within 4 points. But the bizarre turnover and lack of defensive stops allowed Minnesota to end 11-4.

Por's zero-point performance may be criticized, but Cole doubled down on the rookie's full impact "We're not asking him to be Stephen," Cole said. "We asked him to play his game, defend, rebound, and make smart games. He did it all year long." The Golden State Warriors will get a chance at home again in Game 4 Monday night, they need a win to avoid a frightening 3-1 trail, and it remains to be seen whether Curry can return, if you can't hold a home game that the series will be very passive, and it can be said that the winning balance is starting to tilt. But Cole's message is clear: The Warriors will have to continue to rely on each other and find the answers in the roster they have.
