It is a taboo to underestimate the enemy on the basketball court. Although there are strong teams and weak teams among the 30 NBA teams, it is definitely not good to underestimate the enemy. The Warriors paid the price for their underestimated enemy today. Before this game, some people predicted that the Warriors would win. From the point of view of record and communication history, the Warriors have an overall advantage. Moreover, the Pacers did not play several main players. The four core players of Sabonis Jr., Brogdon, LeVert, and Turner all stayed on the sidelines, and the Warriors still played at home. Unexpectedly, the trend of this game exceeded everyone’s expectations.
The Pacers played well on the road, cooperated well, and hit a lot of beautiful shots. The Warriors made a lot of mistakes. After entering overtime, the Warriors were exhausted and Curry felt cold, so they lost the game they should have won at home.
The Warriors’ underestimation is not only reflected in some of the ball handling in the game, but also in yesterday’s practice. The Warriors did not conduct targeted training yesterday. On the contrary, the Warriors coach Kerr seemed to want the team to relax, and they played baseball on the field. From the picture, we can see that Thompson and Bjelica had a great time, but the Warriors fans were dumbfounded on the court. Except for Curry, the team is full of output, and the others are almost invisible.
Especially Thompson, who played his worst game since his comeback.the audience17only hits6ball, beyond the arc7All the shots were missed, and the efficiency was very low.When Curry needed his help, Thompson didn’t step up. Thompson also handled the ball a few times at random and made a lot of mistakes. Disrupting the team’s offensive rhythm is an out-and-out injury.
If Thompson is not feeling well, it can be explained by the excuse of just coming back. Then the two important scorers, Wiggins and Poole, are really unjustifiable. Wiggins and Poole are the Warriors’ No. 2 and No. 3 scorers. The Pacers are dominated by young players. One person is talented, and the other person has comprehensive skills. It stands to reason that the performances should not be bad, but this game Wiggins and Poole surprised the fans, as the favorite candidates for this year’s All-Star.Wiggins played the whole game38minutes, with15second shot11points, the efficiency can be imagined.
Poole didn’t feel good today, and he had to play as a substitute.5Minute,7missed shot6indivual. The two seem to think the game is simple. The Pacers are not a good team to play, and the opposing players may not be as talented and have the opportunity to perform. But the fight must be better than Wiggins and Poole, and the two need to reflect.
