Great start to the season for the Warriors. During the night came the second victory out of two against the Utah Jazz, the contribution of an amazing player being decisive in both games Buddy Hieldauthor of a fantastic start to the season. Arriving in the summer in an attempt to make up for the lack of the departing Thompson, he has absolutely not disappointed expectations so far. Not just for 24.5 points on average. Not just for the incredible 75% from three with which he is shooting. Not just for them 12 triple scored in just 2 games. They also appreciate Hield’s speed on the counterattack in Golden State, defensive intensity and charismatic character. All this was confirmed by Steve Kerr himself recently in a press conference.
“He’s just an incredible person and teammate, full of joy. The bench always laughs with him”Kerr said Friday night at the Delta Center. “What he brings to the team goes far beyond his shooting.”
Furthermore, in these first matches of the season the Dubs were not simply satisfied with winning. The team led by Curry literally swept both Portland and Utah off the field. Obviously the opponents encountered were far from irresistible, but… gap of at least 35 points in both victories he establishes a new NBA record. The season is still long and doubts around this roster still persist, but the start has certainly been encouraging. And why not, perhaps in Golden State they have already found the in Hield worthy replacement on Klay Thompson.
