The battle of tiebreak! Three major hidden dangers are exposed, and the Warriors may become a "new background board" that turns 1:3

When the final whistle sounded at the Oracle Arena, the Golden State Warriors' defeat at home completely tilted the balance of the entire NBA playoffs. After being dragged into the tiebreak battle by the Rockets, the Warriors were standing on the edge of the cliff. Three fatal hidden dangers enveloped this former kingly army like dark clouds. If you are not careful, you may repeat the mistake of being turned 1:3 and become a laughing stock in the history of the league.

The first crisis to bear the brunt of the core players comes from the status and treatment of their core players. Butler scored 27 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists in G6, and his efficient performance of hitting 12 goals with 14 free throws became the key to the team's life-long success. But this time he went to the Rockets' home court, it is doubtful whether the tough forward can continue his "whistle privilege". Once the referee's favor is lost, Butler's power of attack may be greatly reduced, and the Warriors will lose the sharpest spear on the offensive end. What is even more heartbreaking is the potential for injury to the star Curry. Faced with Dillon Brooks' fierce defense, his fingers were maliciously violated many times, which directly led to the sluggish state of G6's 6 of 16 three-pointers. If Curry cannot get rid of the injury, the "Ku has gravity" on which the Warriors rely on will be greatly weakened, and the tactical system of the entire team will be shaky. What is more fatal than the player's dilemma is coach Cole's on-the-spot decision-making mistake. In the life-and-death G6, he boldly changed the lineup, lifted Payton to the starter, and let Podjemsky take the bench. This subversive operation exposed distrust of the original lineup. The key battle changes to the formation are a taboo in military strategists, not to mention that the Warriors have relied on this lineup to achieve great success. Cole's self-doubt is like a plague, quickly spreading to the players on the field. The chaos in tactical execution and the sluggish morale made the team miss the opportunity to end the game many times in the decisive moment.

In contrast, the Rockets are in a rainbow of momentum with their home advantage. The cheering of Toyota Center's tsunami can not only inspire the fighting spirit of the home team players, but also become a powerful tool to destroy the Warriors' psychological defense. When the Warriors embark on the away game with three hidden dangers, what awaits them may be a doomed and difficult battle. From player status to tactical system, from on-the-spot decision-making to psychological game, the Warriors have been completely passive before the tiebreak battle. If the crisis cannot be resolved in time, this team that once created a dynasty would really witness the collapse of glory at the Rockets' home court and swallow another unforgettable defeat.
