Warriors 123-127 Trail Blazers! What’s helpless is not the 3-game losing streak, but Curry Butler’s repeated statements after the game

On November 22, the Warriors played against the Trail Blazers in the NBA Cup. At the end of the game, the Warriors lost to the Trail Blazers 123-127. It was quite undeserved for the Warriors to lose this game. After all, the Warriors finally returned to their home court in this game. The Warriors have an excellent home record this season, and the Warriors once held a double-digit lead in this game. However, even though the Warriors already had such an advantage, the Warriors played loosely in the second half. At the critical moment, Curry failed to seize the open three-point opportunity. In the end, the Warriors still lost the game and suffered a three-game losing streak. The Warriors are now ranked eighth in the Western Conference.

The Warriors this season have actually been having problems with rebounding and turnovers, and in this game the Warriors continued to expose such flaws, and in the end the Warriors finally paid a huge price for it. Now the US media Automatic is sharing data: According to NBA official statistics, there are currently only two teams in the league that rank in the bottom eight in rebound rate and turnover rate, namely the Washington Wizards and the Golden State Warriors. The Warriors' rebound rate of 48.2% ranks eighth in the league, and their turnover rate of 16.6% ranks fifth in the bottom. It can be said that the Warriors did very poorly on these two points. You must know that last season, the Warriors averaged 40.3 rebounds per game and ranked 12th in the league. However, this season the Warriors have done very poorly on one point. Therefore, at this time, the Warriors' offseason signings have also begun to be criticized.

Of course, in addition to these problems, Moody also struggled in the game. You must know that Moody played very well in the previous games, but recently Moody has played a bit sluggishly. Fortunately, Podemski found some offensive status in this game, and this is also good news for the Warriors. After all, the current Warriors still trust Podemski very much, so if Podemski can maintain such an offensive status in the next game, then this will help the Warriors get out of the current quagmire.

But what makes the Warriors helpless now is not the three-game losing streak, but the repeated statements of Curry and Butler after the game. Talking about the defeat after the game, Butler said: We can't guard anyone now. It can be seen that Butler's statement after the game was very dissatisfied with the Warriors' performance. In Butler's opinion, the Warriors' defense was really too lax, so the Trail Blazers completed the reversal in the game. This is where the Warriors are really helpless. After all, the Warriors' lineup is like this. They did not make many changes to the team in the offseason. In addition, Butler, Curry and Green are not young, so it is unrealistic to expect them to perform well every game. Therefore, it is very difficult for the Warriors to get out of the current predicament.

After the game, talking about the current instability of the team, Stephen Curry said: We performed well in some games, proving that we can play for 48 minutes. But we had some bad moments, and tonight we were up and down. As Curry said, the current Warriors are playing very unstable, especially their role players who are struggling in the game. Therefore, the current Warriors rely heavily on Curry's performance, but Curry's age is here, so Curry will also have sluggish situations in the game, especially Especially in the second half of the game, Curry will have some downturns at this time, but no one will step up to help Curry at this time, so the Warriors will be very passive at this stage, and eventually the Warriors will lose the game because of this. It is also extremely difficult for the Warriors to solve these things.
