Refuse to be the first person in meritorious basketball!The Warriors' future core is revealed
Introduction. This post mainly discusses Golden State's youngster Kuminga, as well as the training of young players by Warriors executives and coaches. Now, the Warriors' veteran Curry is still a key figure in the starting lineup, while Kuminga has improved a lot in recent times and wants to get more minutes in this game. Still, the Warriors have always believed in the spirit of the "veteran," and it can be a real test for a young man like Kuminga. This article will provide an analysis of the current situation of Kominga from multiple perspectives to find out if there are any problems in the youth system in Golden State.
The rise and ambition of Kuminga.
The Warriors' Kuminga has been playing well this season, making significant progress both offensively and defensively, averaging 125 points, 38 rebounds, 12 assists, and 504% hit rate. With his outstanding performance, he replaced the old guy in the core position of the team and served as the Warriors' first shooter. However, Kuminga has bigger ambitions, and he wants to play in this position, or rather the main position. Speaking after Christmas, he criticized Golden State's tradition of honorable players and was overwhelmed by how he couldn't get the ball but couldn't shoot too far. This shows that Kuminga has long had a strong desire for more opportunities and his ideals.
The spirit of the warrior's predecessors.
The Warriors have always admired "veterans", and Kuchai, Tang Shen, and Curry are all the three heroes of the Warriors, who have created the legend of the Warriors together, and they are also the existence that Kerr admires. For the Warriors, they are at most a memorable passerby. So, if the youngsters want to get more opportunities in a team, they have to rely on the experienced veterans, or they go on their own. Although Kuminga snatched the starting spot from Brother Zui by his own ability, in this team, it is still mainly veterans, and it is really difficult for young people to replace them.
Whether the Warriors are training or not has some questions.
Now it seems that there is nothing wrong with the concept of "winning glory for the country" advocated by the Warriors. Kuminga's ability is strong, but he's not strong enough to influence a team. In terms of actual combat ability, he is not as good as Tang Shen, let alone Curry who is still in his heyday. The Warriors are still aiming for a championship this season, so they are unlikely to put more of the burden on their youngsters. Although the current situation is still years away for Kuminga, his speech showed that he is not satisfied with the current situation. If the Warriors' administrators and coaches can't do a good job of resolving the conflict between the old and new generations, a second Poole may soon arrive. Wiseman, Poole, and Kuminga are all future for the Warriors, but the first two are all failures, and the remaining ones also want to upset their own jobs. This means that the Warriors still have some problems with the training of young people, and they have not seen their future for a long time, so they have either given up their careers or opted to retire. Curry's contract with the team ended after 26 years, which means that if it were another 2 years, the Warriors would be in a situation where no one was available and they would never recover.
The conclusion is that in recent years, the Warriors have been dominated by the "old coach" ethos, which has led to some problems in the team's youth training. Although young people like Kuminga are very good, it is very difficult for them to fulfill their ideals in the shadow of these veterans. Now, the Warriors are still holding on to the tradition of "honor," believing that today's young people are not strong enough to make an impact on a team. However, with Curry's contract coming to an end, the Warriors are likely to find themselves in the dilemma of having no successor. Therefore, in order to ensure the long-term development of the team, the Warriors' senior management and coaches should carefully consider and solve the problems of the coexistence of the old and the new. Young people must also have patience and perseverance, and if they want to gain a foothold in the warriors, they must work hard to improve themselves and get more opportunities.
