Dream Green is suspended, Chris Paul is injured, Wiggins is completely lost, young players are dissatisfied with playing time, and a series of farces are playing out on the Golden State Warriors, which has sent the dynasty team to the bottom. The problem with the Warriors is probably the problem of everything. There are many players in the backcourt, but the form has been up and down, including Stephen Curry, who has also been hard to describe lately. Up front, Kuminga was stunned, and Wiggins was somewhat disappointing. As for the inside line, it's even more powerless to complain, you can't expect a young man at TJD to change the situation.
In this game, the Warriors welcomed the challenge of the New Orleans Pelicans at home, and the Pelicans are currently strong, the team is ranked sixth in the West, Zion and Ingram can all play, and only the takeaway brother Ryan is on the injury list. Facing the fiery Pelicans, how should the Warriors face it?
At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, the Pelicans completely defeated the Warriors, Ingram got 6 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist, McCollum 5 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists, Jones made 3 of 4 three-point shots, and the team scored 46 points in a single quarter, while the Warriors only scored 27 points, of which the Splash Brothers combined to score 10 points, and Moody on the bench hit 2 three-pointers, and the team was already 19 points behind. After returning from the game in the second quarter, the Pelicans felt down, McCollum had 7 points, 1 assist and 1 steal, and the team only scored 27 points in a single quarter, which allowed the Warriors to seize the opportunity.
Curry stepped up for eight points and three assists, Looney also had seven points and five rebounds, and Moody hit two more three-pointers off the bench to give the team 33 points in the first quarter and trailing the Pelicans by 13 points at halftime, 60-73. In the second half, Klay hit 2 three-pointers, Moody scored 6 points and 1 rebound, but the team only scored 23 points, Varland dominated the inside, shooting 7 of 8 to shoot 15 points and 6 rebounds, all shots were in the restricted area, completely wreaking havoc on the Warriors' small lineup, the team scored 32 points in a single quarter, and successfully extended the lead to 22 points.
With such a huge point difference, the Splash Brothers did not appear, Curry sat on the bench and sighed and shook his head, but the Pelicans were not merciful, and a wave of 18-5 stretched the difference to 35 points. After that, the Warriors did not show any competitiveness, and the point gap continued to widen. With the final whistle, the New Orleans Pelicans defeated the Golden State Warriors by 36 points 141-105.
The Golden State Warriors lost the game, a 36-point defeat, which can be said to be a collapse, Curry shot 4 of 13, 3 of 8 three-point shots, only 15 points, 1 rebound and 6 assists, Klay shot 5 of 10, 13 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, and the Splash Brothers' performance was unsatisfactory. Kuminga had 12 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, and Davis shot 9 of 11, with 19 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist, but Moody's play was very good, 8 of 18 shots, 4 of 8 three-point shots, 21 points and 2 rebounds, becoming the team's scoring champion, and once again slapped Kerr in the face, who said he didn't deserve playing time?
Wiggins was another disappointment, with only 5 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists on 2-of-5 shooting, and he didn't have the grace of the champion at all. The Pelicans won the game, the team of 8 scored double-doubles, 19 of 40 three-pointers, Wallan had 21 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists, Zion 19 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists, Ingram 13 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist, McCollum 14 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists, Murphy 16 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, Jones 12 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, Hawkins 14 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists, Marshall 14 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.
