The Magic didn't expect the Warriors' bench to be so brutal!
The same was true for the previous Lakers, Rockets, and Timberwolves.
How terrifying is it that a team's substitutes and starting lineup are almost as good as each other?
If it's a bad team, it's okay to say that the starting lineup is bad and the substitutes are not strong.
But the Warriors are the defending champions!
How strong is the starting lineup of the defending champion!
When playing against the defending champion, when substitute players come on the field is often a good time for the opponent to chase points.
But it feels like the Warriors' bench is even better than the starters!
How amazing is this!
Where did Deng Fang find these people?
I couldn’t see it before!
In fact, the Warriors' bench is not as strong as people think, mainly because they are playing against their opponent's bench.
The average team's substitutes are always relatively weak.
After playing magic, you will be a wizard the next day.
Back-to-back away games!
This is a devilish schedule for any team.
But the Warriors are fine!
Back-to-back away games are difficult mainly because the physical strength of the players generally cannot keep up. The opponent is at home and they are waiting to work.
But there will never be any physical problems with the Warriors players!
Because they don’t have enough playing time!
Playing more than 30 minutes, there are still young substitutes: Jeremy Lin, Yi Jianlian and others.
The few who only played more than 20 minutes, such as Curry, Azubuike, Prince and others.
Not surprisingly, it was another big win against the Wizards!
Then came the Nuggets in Denver.
The Denver Nuggets home court is one of the most difficult to conquer in the league, and every team in the league has a headache coming here.
Why?
Or because of physical strength!
The Pepsi Center, home of the Denver Nuggets, is located on the edge of the Los Angeles Mountains, with an altitude of 1,606 meters.
Such a height caused many away players to suffer from altitude sickness and even had difficulty breathing from the moment they got off the plane.
If you are not a local, normal activities will be difficult, let alone high-intensity confrontational sports!
But the Warriors are fine!
Because the Warriors players are full of energy!
In order to protect Curry, Prince and Laga Bell, Deng Fang directly let the second team start the game!
So fair!
Try them all for the first time!
Don’t just play with the substitutes!
Only in this way can we see the true level!
The Nuggets are very strong, but the Warriors have been at a disadvantage since coming off the bench.
But not many are lagging behind.
At the end of the first quarter, the Nuggets only led by 5 points.
In the second quarter, the Nuggets came on the bench.
The Warriors took the starting lineup!
Come on, show it off!
The Nuggets acquired Ty Lawson, Jr. Smith, Al Harrington, Sheldon Williams and Gary Forbes.
The Warriors are Curry, Azubuike, Laga Bell, Prince and Lopez!
The difference in strength is too big!
After only 2 minutes of play in the second quarter, the Warriors overtook the score!
After 5 minutes, the Warriors led by 10 points!
George Karl quickly called a timeout.
After the timeout, he became the starting lineup: Anthony, Billups, Nene, Afflalo, Jr. Smith.
The Nuggets' starting lineup is quite strong, but not compared to the Warriors.
Especially when Little Melon Anthony is still distracted.
The formation of the Heat's Big Three in the offseason greatly stimulated Melo, and he began to want to leave Denver.
Denver is located on a plateau and has a small football market, far behind teams like the Lakers and Knicks.
Since you can't play ball with your good friend James and others, then go to a big ball market!
With the team leader like this, you can imagine how his teammates feel.
Although the Nuggets are good, their fighting spirit is obviously much worse than that of the Warriors.
Coupled with Curry's good touch, the point difference continues to widen!
Soon, after the second quarter, the score difference reached 25 points!
The second team of the Warriors sat on the bench looking depressed!
What is going on?
You really don’t give us face, do you?
Go all out when playing against us, and be timid when playing against the starting lineup!
Isn't this bullying?
Let's see!
Soon, the third quarter of the game began.
Deng Fang still let the second team start.
This time, Lowry and others used 200% of their energy, and everyone ran without hesitation!
The Nuggets only lasted 2 minutes!
The Warriors defended so well that the Nuggets could only throw three-pointers from the outside!
Even when I throw a three-pointer, someone interferes!
As long as the Nuggets can't make a shot, the Warriors will counterattack!
It seems that the Warriors have better physical fitness than the Nuggets!
After 5 minutes of play in the third quarter, the score difference reached 35 points!
George Karl didn't want to call a timeout either.
The Nuggets already have the strongest lineup on the court, what else do you want?
Call a timeout to let the Warriors make substitutions?
Replace their starting lineup?
Forget it, the first one will be even more ruthless!
…
The game was played very quickly.
In the end, the Warriors won the game 136:101!
A big win with an advantage of more than 30 points!
The five consecutive guest days are over!
Coupled with the opening game against the Lakers, the Warriors won 6 consecutive games and took the first place in the Western Conference!
The media and every team in the league once again looked at the Warriors with admiration!
Originally, everyone thought that the Warriors' lineup had changed a lot, which would take some time for the Warriors to adjust.
Unexpectedly, the Warriors got off to a good start again!
The current Warriors team is too strong!
The starting lineup is stable and the offensive firepower is strong.
The substitute is full of impact and the defense is airtight!
No matter what time, the Warriors' intensity on the field remains at a very high level!
This makes other teams very uncomfortable.
If they were given the choice, the Warriors' opponents would even want to play against the Warriors' starting lineup!
It's a loss anyway, and there's no shame in losing to a starter led by Curry.
It would be a shame to lose to the Warriors as a substitute...
Deng Fang doesn't care what other teams think, he just wants to lead the Warriors well.
This lineup was carefully selected by Deng Fang, and its strength is certainly not bad.
Since they are the defending champions and had a very smooth start, the Warriors' basketball market is extremely hot!
Defending champion!
Another six-game winning streak at the start!
Every game is a crushing victory!
Cool!
Even if the Warriors only played one game at Oracle Arena, Golden State fans were extremely excited!
This is a grand event that I haven’t seen in many years!
I have finally waited for this day!
After playing against the Nuggets, the Warriors flew back to Oakland overnight.
After two days of rest, the Warriors started their home game.
The first team to challenge at Oracle Arena is the Spurs.
The Spurs have been a strong team in the Western Conference in recent years.
No matter how the situation changes, the Spurs have always stood firm!
There are basically no changes to the Spurs' lineup in the new season, except for the introduction of two rookies, Gary Neal and Splitter.
But as long as the GDP troika is there, the Spurs will have no problem.
As Duncan got older, he began to change his role, focusing on defense.
The team's offensive dominance began to shift to the outside.
Popovich also gave Ginobili the starting job.
Parker and Ginobili began to instigate the team's offense more.
In fact, the Spurs' strongest strength is their bench.
In the Spurs, whether he is a starter or a substitute, he plays very hard and with great discipline whenever he comes on the court.
It is very difficult to win against such a team.
The game between the Warriors and the Spurs was extremely fierce.
This is the first time the Warriors have encountered difficulties in the new season.
