NBA regular season, the Warriors defeated the Suns at home with a score of 109-105. In this game, after the Suns' physical decline in the final quarter, their efficiency in various aspects began to drop. The Warriors seized the opportunity to widen the gap and eventually narrowly won against their opponents. After the game, the Warriors faced three joys and one concern.
Kuminga's current state is getting better and better. He scored 34 points in the last game, and this game was also 34 points. More importantly, he can continuously score in the final moments to help the team establish an advantage. In fact, Kuminga is the only player on the Warriors who can create fouls by hard-charging the basket. If he were traded, it is not excluded that the situation might get worse. Therefore, Kuminga needs to continue playing for the team. As long as he is given enough ball possession, he can explode. With his tactical status improving, scoring twenty or thirty points will not be a problem.
TJD, like Kuminga, has also shown his value. In these two games, TJD has been effective immediately upon entering the court, whether it's finishing, rebounding, or defense, he can handle it all. Unfortunately, after a strong first quarter, he was benched in the second quarter, and in the second half, he only played sporadically, which is quite inexplicable. Don't forget, he had a performance of 16+10+4 blocks for the whole game, which is already very strong. However, he only played for 23 minutes.
Schroder has finally slowly awakened. He made 4 out of 13 shots, including 1 out of 7 from beyond the arc, which doesn't look good on paper. Fortunately, in the final moments, Schroder hit a three-pointer and caused Durant to commit a turnover, contributing both offensively and defensively to help the team establish an advantage. Throughout the game, Schroder performed very well defensively, and he can be considered to have gradually shown his worth. It is hoped that in subsequent games, Schroder can continue to improve, otherwise, this trade would have been wasted.
However, Curry and Wiggins' decline is substantial, which will be very damaging to the Warriors. Curry missed several shots in the final quarter, almost costing the Warriors their victory. Wiggins was also struggling, missing shots throughout the game, and he has been doing so for several consecutive games. According to reason, they are both core players of the team, but unfortunately, their stability is too poor, which seriously affects the overall performance of the Warriors.
