The Warriors rested for two days after the victory over the Rockets.
On December 2, 2010, the Grizzlies came to Oracle Arena to challenge the Warriors.
This is the second matchup between the Grizzlies and Warriors this season.
The game against the Warriors was very painful for the Grizzlies.
With the Black and White Bears as the core, focusing on the inside is the basic tactic of the Grizzlies. This is what they have been playing this season and will continue to play.
But fighting like this against the Warriors is a dead end!
Nothing else, just because the Warriors have Curry!
The Grizzlies are not afraid of small ball tactics, they are afraid of small ball tactics with Curry.
But no matter how scared you are, the game must be played.
Curry's touch was not good at the beginning of the game, and he missed three consecutive shots.
This also gave the Grizzlies a 5-point lead.
It turns out that Curry also misses!
It turns out we can also be ahead!
The Grizzlies players immediately became energetic.
But Curry didn't give them much time to be happy at all. After missing three shots, he directly hit a super long three-pointer!
After only scoring this one goal, Grizzlies coach Hollins called a timeout without hesitation!
Barkley in the commentary box was speechless: "This...Curry...only made one shot! Brother, he made one of four! Are you so nervous?"
Reggie Miller shook his head and said: "As for! If it were me, I would do the same! Because that's Curry!"
…
During the timeout, Hollins kept telling his players: "As long as Curry is on the pick-and-roll, we must attack him resolutely! Don't give Curry a chance to take action!"
The Grizzlies arranged it well, but Curry didn't do what Hollins said at all!
After returning from the timeout, Curry took a feint shot against Conley's tight defense outside the three-point line and took a decisive shot.
I won’t play pick-and-roll anymore!
It’s up to you what to do!
If you cast correctly, you can do whatever you want!
I am just confident that this goal can be scored!
For three consecutive times, Curry directly shot a three-pointer!
Two out of three!
Including the previous 1-of-4 shots, Curry made a total of 3-of-7 three-pointers!
The hit rate exceeds 40%!
The Grizzlies had no choice but to call timeout again.
After Curry returned from the timeout, the Grizzlies began to double-team him as soon as the half was over.
This is exactly what Curry wanted.
If you don't double-team me, you're insulting me!
The rest of the Warriors immediately got a lot of open shots.
For a time, the Warriors were raining down arrows!
After the first quarter, the Grizzlies trailed by 13 points.
Coming off the bench in the second quarter, Lowry and others were not polite and directly widened the point difference to 30 points!
The game entered garbage time again.
Although it was garbage time, the fans at Oracle Arena were extremely excited.
The winning team doesn't care how long garbage time is!
That's not garbage time, that's celebration time!
Who cares if the celebration lasts too long?!
In the end, the Warriors won by 43 points!
Twenty-four days later, the Grizzlies lost to the Warriors again.
…
After playing the slow-paced Grizzlies, the Warriors welcomed the Suns, who played the same fast-paced game as themselves.
The Suns have had a poor start to the season. Their record so far is 10 wins and 10 losses, ranking only ninth in the Western Conference.
The Suns, like the Warriors, focus on small ball, shooting three-pointers at a fast pace.
The two teams are very similar on the offensive end, but the gap is much greater on the defensive end.
The biggest problem for the Suns is their poor defense.
During the offseason, the Suns' core big man Stoudemire left the team and went to the Knicks.
Stoudemire is a player who focuses on offense but not defense. When he was in the Suns, the team's interior defense was always a problem.
But after Stoudemire left, Channing Frye, who replaced him, was even worse defensively!
The Suns' starting lineup this season mainly consists of Nash, Jason Richardson, Grant Hill, Channing Frye and Robin Lopez.
Only Robin Lopez's defense is good here.
Grant Hill's defense is also reasonable.
No matter how good one person is at defense, it is difficult to wipe the butt of three people!
Especially when two of these three people have diarrhea!
What's even more annoying is that Robin Lopez only played 9 games before he was sidelined due to injury.
This also made the Suns' interior defense even worse.
The Suns' offense is indeed good, but they can't defend it!
With Nash, a passing master, and an excellent shooter from the outside, it is easy for the Suns to score.
But their opponents score easier!
Precisely because he knew the Suns' problems, Deng Fang paid special attention to the balance between the offensive and defensive ends of the players when selecting players.
Those who can only attack but not defend are not allowed, nor are those who can only defend but not attack!
You can be strong in one aspect, but you can't be weak in other aspects!
Even Kirilenko can shoot three-pointers, and he has recently reached the league average!
Opponents like the Suns are what the Warriors most hope to encounter.
The pace is fast, the viewing pleasure is great, there are few fouls, and the atmosphere is harmonious!
Especially Deng Fang, he liked it even more.
What a great training opportunity for the team’s substitutes!
Curry only played 18 minutes before taking a rest, and he was used as a substitute in the second half.
Jeremy Lin, Livingston, Kirilenko, Yi Jianlian, and DeAndre Jordan played the entire second half!
Throw!
Throw it hard!
Anyway, neither team is defending, so just throw it!
The game was played happily.
In the end, the Warriors beat the Suns by 5 points!
Seven consecutive victories achieved!
…
Although the Warriors lost a game before, with two consecutive wins, the Warriors still firmly maintain the first position in the league.
The Spurs have the smallest record difference with the Warriors. They have 18 wins and 3 losses, ranking second in the Western Conference and second in the league.
The Celtics are first in the Eastern Conference, with 17 wins and 4 losses, ranking third in the league.
The Heat followed closely behind, also with 17 wins and 4 losses. They ranked second in the Eastern Conference and fourth in the league because they lost to the Celtics in the opening game.
…
On December 8, the Warriors visited the United Center to challenge the young Bulls.
The Bulls had a bad start to the season, and their record fell far short of expectations.
However, after getting used to it for a period of time, the Bulls found the feeling, winning consecutive games, and their record skyrocketed.
Historically, the Bulls performed very well this season. With their strong performance in the middle and late stages, they won the league's first record!
Rose also won the MVP this season!
Therefore, we must not lose the game against the Bulls!
Because this involves the ownership of MVP!
Deng Fang knows that for Curry, his strongest opponent for MVP this season is Rose.
The Heat's Big Three have just come together, and James' status as the leader is not yet stable, he doesn't have that much ball rights, and his record is not as good as the Warriors and Bulls.
Although the Spurs have a good record, they are all soldiers and none of their statistics stand out.
The same goes for the Celtics.
Nowitzki of the Mavericks is very good, but their record is much worse than that of the Warriors.
Compared with Rose, Curry does not have much advantage in statistics this season.
There's no way, Curry's playing time is too little!
Rose is averaging more than 37 minutes per game this season!
Curry only plays an average of 21 minutes per game!
