Although they lost to the Mavericks, it also allowed people to see the tenacity of the Warriors.
Even with the three core members unable to play, the Warriors still struggled with the Mavericks, a strong team in the league, to the end!
This is the strength of the defending champion!
After playing the Mavericks, there was another back-to-back game, and the opponent was the Suns.
The Suns focus on running and gunning, and have been a strong team in the Western Conference for many years.
However, Stoudemire's departure this season has a great impact on the Suns.
Stoudemire's defense is terrible, but his scoring ability is still sufficient and he has full impact at the basket.
After Stoudemire left, the Suns used Robin Lopez to play center more often. Robin Lopez is a defensive center who is very slow and has no shooting ability. This has greatly harmed the Suns' offense.
The Suns' label is offense. Once the offensive firepower drops, it will be in trouble.
The Suns are currently ranked tenth in the Western Conference, some distance away from the playoffs.
Curry and others still have a truce in this game.
Deng Fang was not in a hurry and must let the three of them rest enough before coming out.
The game against the Suns was very easy. It only took half time for the Warriors to open the point difference to 15 points!
As soon as the second half started, the Warriors started a five-death defense: Livingston, Hayward, Tucker, Kirilenko and DeAndre Jordan.
The high-intensity defense made the Suns very uncomfortable. The Warriors continued to cause the Suns to make mistakes and launched waves of defensive counterattacks.
After a wave of scoring climax, the point difference between the two teams reached 30 points!
The game entered garbage time early.
…
After two days of rest, the Warriors faced the challenge of the Mavericks at Oracle Arena.
This is the second meeting between the two teams this season, the last time was four days ago.
This time Curry, Lowry and Lopez can play!
All three of them rested for 17 days and were all resurrected with full health!
This game must not be lost!
The Warriors started off with momentum. Curry dribbled into the frontcourt and hit an unreasonable three-pointer!
The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit the net!
Oracle Arena immediately exploded!
He is back!
Ku Ritian is resurrected with full blood!
The owner of Oracle Arena showed off the sniper rifle in his hand!
We must win this game!
The cheers at Oracle Arena were deafening and the gongs and drums were loud!
The fans' enthusiasm is high, and the mood of the Warriors players on the court suddenly rises!
The three-pointers are like rain on the offensive end, and the defense is airtight!
In just 5 minutes, the Warriors led by 12 points!
Carlisle had to call a timeout.
After the timeout, the Mavericks replaced Chandler and asked Nowitzki to play center. At the same time, they replaced Jets Terry and started a two-guard lineup.
The Warriors also made substitutions, bringing on Lowry and Kirilenko, replacing Laga Bell and Lopez.
Terry is very strong, but Lowry with three-pointers is more comprehensive!
In this league, Kirilenko is the best choice to defend Nowitzki!
The Mavericks wanted to turn the situation around on offense, and the Warriors came up with a smaller lineup!
Fear no one more than the Attack Warriors!
It's obvious that the Warriors have more firepower and move faster.
Although the outside firepower was fierce, the Mavericks only held a stalemate with the Warriors for 3 minutes.
After three minutes, a group of veterans from the Mavericks obviously couldn't keep up physically, but the Warriors' generals were still having trouble with their legs!
Especially Curry, with three-pointers and breakthroughs one after another, I feel like I have endless energy!
Curry played shooting guard, and Lowry also did a good job in organizing.
Both the Mavericks' offense and defense were suppressed!
Soon, at the end of the first quarter, the Warriors led by 21 points!
Flowers in a single section!
Curry made 5 three-pointers in one game and scored 21 points!
Lowry sent out 7 assists in a single quarter!
The following games are of little significance...
Although the Mavericks didn't want to give up, the strong Warriors didn't give the Mavericks any chance!
The final score was fixed at 132:101!
Warriors win by 31 points!
Successful revenge!
After playing the Mavericks, it was another back-to-back game, and the opponent was the Spurs, who were second in the Western Conference!
The Spurs' current record is 54 wins and 17 losses, second in the league.
The Warriors' record is 64 wins and 7 losses, ranking first in the league!
The winning difference between the two teams is exactly 10 games!
There are 82 games in a season, and now both teams have played 71 games, with 11 games left.
If they want to successfully rise to the top of the Western Conference, the Spurs must win all the subsequent games, and they must hope that the Warriors lose at least 10 more games!
This is basically an impossible task!
It's easy for the Spurs to win, but it would be too difficult for the Warriors, who have the best record in the league, to lose!
More importantly, the Spurs will play the Warriors twice in these 11 games!
The Spurs have to win both games!
As long as they lose one of these two games, the Spurs will have no chance of surpassing the Warriors in theory!
This game was played at the Spurs' home court, and it was the second back-to-back game for the Warriors. The Spurs must not lose.
If you lose this game, the subsequent games will be of little significance.
The second place in the league is very stable, but it is impossible to catch up with the first place, so the Buddhist game is better.
The Spurs are fully prepared, and they are all playing today.
But the Warriors are also well prepared.
The biggest problem in back-to-back games is lack of physical fitness, but physical fitness has never been a problem for the Warriors!
We have a rotation of 14 people!
A true 14-man rotation!
Belinelli, who played the least, also had 15 minutes!
Unlike some teams, the players at the end of the bench only come on for a minute or two in garbage time.
These guys on the Warriors are almost always rotated at a fixed time!
The starting seven players of the first team played even less time than the second team!
So much playing time also allowed all the Warriors players to get exercise.
A real workout!
Practice facing the opponent's first starter in actual combat!
So the Warriors have never had physical problems!
The Spurs played very tenaciously and relied on the extraordinary performance of GDP to compete with the Warriors for two quarters.
However, only 3 minutes were played in the third quarter, and the game was wasted!
Without him, Curry shot again!
I don’t know why, but this elementary school student ejaculates from time to time...
Popovich knows the power of Curry best. Under his arrangement, the Spurs focused on defending Curry from the first second of the game. This also resulted in Curry not scoring much in the first half of the game.
The Warriors relied on the performance of others to stay ahead.
5 points, 3 assists, and 2 turnovers in the half!
I have to say that the Spurs' defense was very good.
But this is nothing to Curry!
I just need one game!
No, I just need a few minutes!
Especially the third quarter!
The reason why Yong San Crazy is famous all over the world is because Curry has a habit of breaking out in the third quarter!
Curry hit a barrage of three-pointers to stop the Spurs.
The score difference also came to 10 points.
Popovich called a timeout, hoping to interrupt Curry's rhythm.
However, he still underestimated Curry's scoring ability.
As long as the touch comes, Curry will be unstoppable!
Curry still feels hot after the timeout. Even if the Spurs double-team, Curry can't stop Curry from scoring!
Curry was double-teamed in a pick-and-roll with the ball. He can't be double-teamed when he moves without the ball, right?
In that case, will there still be no restricted area?
As long as Curry runs out to catch the ball, he shoots!
Even if you get knocked down, you still have to throw the ball!
Just throw the ball and it will go in!
This is Curry with explosive touch!
When the Spurs began to double-team Curry, who was running without the ball, the game lost its suspense.
The Warriors are not a weak team!
Curry’s teammates are not freeloaders!
Azubuike, Prince, Tucker, and Lopez all have three-pointers, and they all dare to shoot when given the opportunity.
Should Curry shoot to death or Curry's teammates to shoot to death?
Between two cups of poison, you have to choose one!
Curry's hands are hot, the Spurs chose the latter cup!
But it’s also a cup of poison!
The Warriors fired thousands of arrows, and Curry's assists also skyrocketed!
The game quickly lost its suspense.
At the end of the third quarter, the score difference between the two teams reached 25 points.
Both teams put on substitutes in the fourth quarter...
In the end, the Spurs lost the game 102:122.
The loss of this game also eliminated the possibility of the Spurs theoretically surpassing the Warriors in record.
The Warriors secured first place in the league 10 games ahead of schedule!
…
The Warriors' next opponents are the Rockets, Raptors, Wizards, Thunder, Lakers and Mavericks.
Deng Fang no longer took winning or losing seriously, so he coached very casually.
Just wait and see who feels better, just brush up the data, that's it!
But happiness is like this, the less you care, the more he will chase you!
Deng Fang doesn't care, but the team members won't agree!
We want to set a record!
NBA single-season winning record!
Although it has no impact on the ranking, we still want to win!
Beat the Rockets and win by 32 points!
Against the Raptors, a 35-point victory!
Wizards, 48-point victory!
Even against the young and impactful Thunder, the Warriors won by 29 points!
Finally, the person who gave the Warriors a headache appeared.
That's Kobe.
Kobe has taken good physical care this season and has not missed a game so far.
Whenever the Warriors play against the Lakers, Deng Fang's defensive strategy is the same: let Kobe's three-pointer go and prevent him from breaking through!
Kobe’s three-pointers aren’t that good anyway!
Kobe is still worthy of trust at critical moments, but overall, Kobe's three-point shooting is still average.
It's okay for Deng Fang to do this, but Kobe is, after all, the number one superstar in NBA history!
For a player like Kobe, whether he can make a shot or not depends solely on his own touch!
As for saying that repeated missed shots will affect your confidence, this does not exist for Kobe!
In the game against the Warriors, Kobe showed off his might, scoring 9 three-pointers and scoring 52 points!
Curry also performed well, scoring 38 points and 5 assists.
But unfortunately, his teammates didn't feel good and couldn't make any shots.
Coupled with the good performance of other members of the Lakers, the Warriors were very annoyed on the defensive end, and ultimately lost by only three points.
This was the Warriors' eighth loss of the season.
Deng Fang still didn't care much about this.
There will always be nights like this, and there is nothing anyone can do about it!
Your opponent is playing well, but your condition is not good. What else can you do if you don't lose?
If you lose, you lose!
They suffered a defeat against the Lakers, which made the Warriors players very depressed.
The result is that the calf is unlucky!
The Warriors players took all their grievances for the loss on the Mavericks!
The Warriors started the game with a high-pressure defense and pressed the whole court!
The Mavericks players were stunned for a moment!
what is wrong?
We are Mavericks!
Not the Lakers!
If you want revenge and go to the Lakers, don't fight with us!
You are already number one in the league, why bother working so hard?
The Warriors players on the field didn't care about this. They gritted their teeth and said one word: Do it!
Go to death!
If you can win 50, you will never win 49!
The game only lasted one and a half quarters!
At the end of the game, the point difference came to 32 points!
In the end, the Warriors defeated 146:91 by 55 points!
At this point, the Warriors and Mavericks have finished their three matchups this season, with the Warriors leading 2:1.
Even if they meet in the playoffs, the Warriors players still have a great psychological advantage.
In the game we lost, we were short of major generals and lacked manpower!
Even team boss Curry is not here!
As long as we have enough manpower, we are invincible!
…
On April 6, the Warriors visited the Rose Garden Arena.
No one expected that the Warriors suffered a defeat in Portland.
The Portland Trail Blazers have had a very troubled past two seasons.
Last season, the Trail Blazers encountered a large number of injuries right from the start. Seven main centers, including Oden, Rudy Fernandez, and Batum, were injured successively.
But under Roy's leadership, the Trail Blazers, who were short of major generals, repeatedly became a nightmare for the powerful players and performed well.
At the end of the 2010 regular season, Roy tore the meniscus in his right knee. Roy underwent right knee surgery a few days later, and the Blazers missed the playoffs as a result.
Roy underwent another surgery this season, and the menisci were removed from both knees. Roy only played 47 games in the regular season.
On December 31, 2010, the Portland Trail Blazers announced that Brandon Roy would be out "indefinitely" due to knee soreness.
On January 18, 2011, Roy once again completed arthroscopic repair surgery on both knees!
But Roy still chose to play!
Although Roy came on the bench against the Warriors, he scored the highest score in the team!
Roy scored 32 points and 5 assists in the game. Coupled with Aldridge's heroic performance, the Warriors finally lost the game by 5 points.
Of course, in addition to the Blazers' extraordinary performance, the Warriors' too hard fight in the last game was also a factor in the defeat.
In this way, the Warriors suffered their ninth loss of the season against the Trail Blazers.
The Warriors' opponent in the penultimate game of the season is the Spurs.
In this game, both teams had a tacit understanding and hid most of their main players.
The Warriors' first place in the league is no longer in doubt, and the Spurs' second place in the league has been confirmed a few days ago.
There is no point in further shopping in this case.
Popovich, this old fox, doesn’t do stupid things!
He doesn't care how the Warriors are doing, the Spurs are mostly veterans!
The most annoying thing for veterans is that their physical fitness cannot keep up.
It would be great to recharge your batteries, let GDP replenish your physical fitness, and wait for the playoffs!
The whole game is a competition of substitutes.
Although the Spurs' substitutes are average in strength, they are very disciplined and have an advantage against the substitutes of most teams in the league.
But the Warriors have the strongest bench in the league!
No matter how disciplined you are, I can beat you with my strength!
Unsurprisingly, the Warriors finally won a big victory.
