Goodbye Curry! Butler is too soft, look at the Celtics!
The NBA playoffs continue this season, and the Warriors go to Minnesota to continue to play against the Timberwolves.
The hope for this game is actually very slim, because the Warriors really can't come up with more solutions.
There are always people who look down on Curry, but Curry is everything about the Warriors, and he is the foundation of the Warriors' entire system. The
trade was obtained from Butler, essentially to activate Curry's strong point.
But when Curry is away, Butler doesn't seem to be the next strong point.
In the last game, Butler was very weak. He publicly stated before the game that he could score 40 points in a single game if needed.
But the reality is that Butler's desire to attack was very low. He only made 9 sports shootings in the whole game and scored 14 points, which is far from "40 points in a single game".
So what is going on today? Still not ideal.
Butler only made 11 attempts today, scoring 17 points and 6 assists. He looked indifferent and was ready for a vacation.
In terms of competitive attitude and fighting spirit, Butler may not be as good as Kumingga and Pojemsky.
It is worth mentioning that the Warriors' best performers today are Podgemski, Kumingga and Mengmeng Green, all of whom the Warriors themselves chose and trained.
At any time, one's own people feel more belonging and more reliable than outsiders.
Faced with such a warrior, the Timberwolves will not be polite, and Edwards will not miss the opportunity.
The Timberwolves in the first half had a clear advantage. They won 7 points 30-23 in the first quarter and 8 points 32-24 in the second quarter.
The Timberwolves entered the break with a 15-point lead, and Edwards didn't even make full efforts.
Edwards scored only 6 points in the first half, but grabbed 5 rebounds and sent 6 assists.
Randall took on the offensive responsibility. The highly questioned power forward seemed to be completely defeated by Towns, but he finally found his feelings in the Warriors' weak penalty area and scored 15 points in the first two quarters.
Curry shook his head when he saw it. Gobert also broke out.
In Basketball Jun's eyes, Gobert is the weather vane of the Timberwolves. Whether he plays easily or not shows the Timberwolves' control over the penalty area.
When a team makes Gobert feel on the offensive end, it is not far from losing.
This is true when facing the Lakers and the Warriors.
The Warriors tried to chase points in the final quarter. They played a little more than 3 minutes and shot a 13-4 attack wave on the Timberwolves, only 12 points away from chasing them.
But Edwards and Gobert were not on the court at this time, and the veteran Conley led the team to face. He also contributed 16 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists today, and scored 4 three-pointers. The Warriors' defense is indeed broken to a certain point.
With Edwards back on the game, the Timberwolves closed the game directly, defeating the Warriors 121-110, and eliminated the opponent 4-1 in the total score.
Edwards scored 22 points, 7 rebounds and 12 assists, Randle scored 29 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists, Conley scored 16 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, Gobert scored 17 points and 8 rebounds, Divincenzo scored 13 points and 6 assists, and McDaniels scored 14 points and 4 rebounds.
Podjemsky scored 28 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, Kumingga scored 26 points and 3 rebounds, Moody scored 12 points, Green scored 10 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists, and Butler scored 17 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists.
Warriors, after all, didn't last until Curry made a comeback in G6.
But what can Curry really make a comeback early? Can the results be changed?
The Warriors lack a little fighting spirit, and the sluggishness of main players such as Butler shows the attitude of this team.
As a comparison, today the Celtics faced the Knicks at home, and they also lacked core player Tatum, who was also behind 1-3 and was forced to the edge of the cliff.
As a result, Jaylen Brown scored 26 points, 8 rebounds and 12 assists, White scored 34 points and made 7 three-pointers, Prichard beat Brunson alone, and Connett sent 7 blocks.
Celtics defeated the Knicks 127-102, and fell behind 2-3 in the total score, bringing the game back to New York.
The Celtics may end up falling, but not today.
A team, the temperament of the game is indeed too important.
Whether you want to win or not, and how much you want to win, determines the outcome of the game to a large extent.
