In the NBA regular season, the Warriors defeated the 76ers 119-107 at home, although they had a 19-24 record and ranked 12th in the West, while the 76ers finished fourth in the East with a 29-16 record. The Warriors' victory was considered an upset, but Curry excelled in Klay Thompson's absence, shooting 12-of-17 from the field and 8-of-13 from three-point range for 37 points, eight rebounds, seven assists and one block. Kuminga also showed growth, shooting 11-of-19 from the field and finishing with 26 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 1 block.
Wiggins' recovery was also a surprise for the Warriors, who performed efficiently in this game, shooting 8-of-10 from the field, scoring 23 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, getting rid of the previous scoring stagnation. The Warriors' victory is expected to boost Wiggins' market value and give the team better leverage. In the game, the Warriors won, but Green's individual performance was not great. His stats in the game didn't have many bright spots, but his positive impact on the team was demonstrated by a plus/minus of +18. Especially in the starting lineup, his presence has improved the Warriors' offensive and defensive balance.
It is worth mentioning that Podzemski came into the starting lineup as a substitute for Clay, and the overall performance was acceptable. However, he needs to improve his attacking efficiency to better help his team to victory. However, the Warriors were relatively underwhelming off the bench. The current bench players are not contributing enough, which is one of the reasons why the team has lost in some games. However, the good news is that Payton Jr. and Paul are on the verge of returning, and Klay is back to health, which will hopefully make up for the lack of roster and make the team more competitive in the playoffs.
Overall, the Warriors came out on top in this game, but they still have a few issues to address, particularly on the bench. Only by tweaking the roster and further improving the individual performance of the players can the Warriors achieve better results in the playoffs. Now let's consider the question: Will the Warriors have what it takes to compete with other strong teams in the playoffs? Are they strong enough to go far? To answer this question, we need to compare the gap between the Warriors and other strong teams.
First, we can take a look at the Warriors' lineup. While their starting line-up was good, they were relatively inadequate on the bench. This gives more opportunities to other strong teams. And, the Warriors also have some issues with offensive efficiency. Although they have some great scorers, such as Klay and Curry, their offense has not always been consistent. They need to make better use of the team's overall strength and improve the efficiency of their attack. In addition, the Warriors need to step up on the defensive end.
While Green's plus/minus in the game showed his positive impact, the Warriors' defense as a whole still leaves much to be desired. They need to work better together and raise the opponent's scoring limit. However, we can't ignore the Warriors' strengths. They have a number of good players, and they also have certain strengths in teamwork and tactical use. In addition, they have a great manager who has the ability to beat the big teams. To sum up, although the Warriors still have some problems at the moment, they still have the ability to compete with other strong teams.
By tweaking their roster, improving their individual performances, and strengthening their defense, they will hopefully go far in the playoffs. The future competition will be a fierce battle, so let's wait and see!
