Today, the Warriors finally welcomed a long-awaited victory on the road, defeating the Timberwolves with a clear advantage and successfully ending their losing streak. This victory was not only due to Curry's excellent performance from beyond the three-point line but also closely related to their outstanding defensive strategy. In the first quarter of the game, the Warriors' defensive performance stood out, allowing the Timberwolves to score only 12 points. This match was extremely rare for the Warriors, as we seldom see them leading by such a large margin in the first quarter; usually, they tend to be behind during the first quarter. It was precisely because of the strong lead established in the first quarter that the Warriors could remain somewhat calm in subsequent games, resisting potential scoring risks. Otherwise, they might have suffered another crushing defeat today. The reason for the Warriors' transformation in defense is the return of Payton Jr., who has been out for a long time due to injury. His appearance in the game had a crucial impact on the team's overall defensive capabilities. His defensive coverage is quite extensive; he can not only guard the opponent's key players individually but also quickly support with his agile and fast-moving speed, making him an excellent choice for blocking the opponent's center in the paint, comprehensively improving the defensive efficiency on the court. Due to Payton Jr.'s outstanding defensive performance, the Warriors were able to restrict their opponents while launching effective counterattacks, thus forming an offensive confrontation with the opposition. Many fans pointed out that Payton Jr.'s importance…

The Golden State Warriors have finally tasted victory after a long-awaited win against the Minnesota Timberwolves on the road, ending their losing streak. The Warriors' success today can be attributed to two factors: Curry's exceptional shooting from beyond the arc and their outstanding defense. In the first quarter, the Warriors' defense was particularly impressive, holding the Timberwolves to just 12 points. This game was quite rare for the Warriors, as we seldom see them leading by a large margin in the first quarter; they are often the trailing team. Their strong start in the first quarter gave them a cushion to absorb any subsequent scoring deficits, which might have otherwise led to another significant defeat. The Warriors' defensive transformation today is largely due to the return of a key defensive player, Payton Jr., who has been out with an injury for some time. Payton's return has had a significant impact on the Warriors' defense. With a broad defensive range, he not only defends against the opposing team's top scorer but also moves quickly to provide assistance and even block shots from the opposing center in the paint. His defensive presence on the court is all-encompassing. It is because of his efficient contributions on the defensive end that the Warriors were able to hold their opponents while launching counterattacks and compete offensively. Many fans believe that Payton is as important to the team as Green. While Green is the pillar of the Warriors' interior defense, Payton is one of the pillars of their perimeter defense, alongside Wiggins. They are the defensive…

In the face of a challenging decision to potentially sacrifice their future for another championship run, the Golden State Warriors are considering an epic trade that has fans both excited and apprehensive. The team is reportedly planning a "7-for-1" deal to acquire Anthony Edwards, the core player of the Minnesota Timberwolves. This bold move could either reignite their championship aspirations or result in a high-stakes gamble gone wrong. The Warriors started the season with impressive performances, with Stephen Curry's hot hand and Buddy Hield's prowess from beyond the arc, complemented by the rise of young players within the team. Fans were hopeful, envisioning another championship title within reach. However, the team's fortunes changed quickly. Hield's form dipped, leading to crucial mistakes, and Melton's season-ending injury left a significant void. The team's reliance on Curry became even more pronounced, as he single-handedly carried the team forward. Despite his best efforts, the Warriors found themselves hovering around the play-in tournament spots in the Western Conference, a precarious position that raised concerns among supporters. Experts have suggested that the Warriors' struggles stem from a lack of a reliable scoring option. In the current NBA landscape, Edwards stands out as a formidable offensive force. His explosive athleticism and scoring ability make him a key player for the Timberwolves, averaging over 25 points per game this season. His driving skills and top-tier one-on-one efficiency pose a significant threat to opposing defenses. Despite his talents, Edwards has faced challenges within the Timberwolves organization. With the departure of Karl-Anthony Towns, he became the sole focal point, but…

Translation:‌ Beijing time January 3rd, the Warriors faced off against the Philadelphia 76ers in a game. As the first game of the new year, Curry also conveyed his desire to win the game before the match and led by example during the game. In the previous game against the Cavaliers' twin towers lineup, the Warriors were in a difficult position, even falling behind by as much as 26 points at one point. In this game, the Warriors defeated Philadelphia 139-105. Facing the trio of George, Maxi, and Embiid, Curry led the older lineup to a 34-point victory. During the game, Curry also set an NBA record, hitting at least 8 out of 8 three-pointers and recording over 10 assists, becoming the first player in NBA history to achieve this feat.‌ Curry started the game today and clocked out early after playing for 29 minutes. He went 11 for 15 from the field, including 8 for 8 from beyond the arc, achieving a 100% shooting percentage. He finished with 30 points, 6 rebounds, 10 assists, and 1 steal. In the fourth quarter with 9 minutes left, Curry was subbed back in when the lead was close to 20 points. After hitting two more three-pointers, Kerr decided to take Curry out of the game early. After Curry's departure, Kerr jokingly commented on his star player. Kerr said, "This is the first time you've agreed to come out of the game with such a hot hand." It's clear from Kerr's statement that Curry has had hot streaks before but would express his desire…

NBA regular season games continued today, with all matches concluded. The Bucks defeated the Pacers 120-112 on the road, the Celtics overwhelmed the Raptors 125-71 at home, the Clippers suffered a crushing 86-122 loss to the Spurs away, the Thunder beat the Timberwolves 113-105 at home, the Lakers lost 110-122 to the Cavaliers at home, and the Suns lost 112-117 to the Grizzlies at home. Despite not having a game scheduled today, the Warriors received a significant gift. The Warriors' Top 10 Spot in the West Seems Secure!‌ Teams ahead of the Warriors, including the Lakers, Clippers, and Timberwolves, all lost their games. The good news is that, despite currently ranking 10th in the West, the Warriors are only 2.5 games behind the 5th-placed Nuggets. With a winning streak, the Warriors could return to the top 6 in the West, with a significant opportunity. Of course, the Suns' home loss to the Grizzlies was crucial for the Warriors' stability. Booker's return had boosted the Suns' morale, and a Suns victory would have easily pushed the Warriors out of the top 10 in the West. However, not only did the Suns lose at home, dropping to a 15-17 record, but they also fell 1.0 game behind the Warriors, and Beal got injured again. While we do not wish to see players get injured, the Warriors' competitors are still in disarray due to injuries, providing the currently struggling Warriors with a chance to catch their breath. This has allowed the Warriors to temporarily stabilize their top 10 ranking in the West, giving…

The NBA league's top teams are now changing, much like a large-scale reality show with various dramas unfolding daily. Some teams want to trade players, others want to rebuild their lineups, and some aim for the championship title; it's all quite chaotic. The Cavaliers have recently impressed with their young players' unexpected success. The team is now vibrant and energetic, with a fast-paced offense and proactive defense, making them a headache for other teams. The Thunder's performance is even more surprising, with their young players showing great passion on the court, especially in their outstanding offensive play. Their defense is also improving, making them one of the most anticipated teams in the West. Although the Rockets are still in the rebuilding phase, their young players have shown great potential, particularly in their excellent offensive play. Their defense is also improving, making them one of the most anticipated teams in the West. The Celtics' performance is also surprising, with their young players showing great passion on the court, especially in their excellent offensive play. Their defense is also improving, making them one of the most anticipated teams in the East. The Nuggets, despite having a superstar like Jokic, still lack overall strength, especially in their inconsistent defensive performance, which makes it difficult for them to perform well in the playoffs. The Bucks' situation is even worse, with an aging lineup and players not in top form, leading to frequent mistakes in games and inconsistent defense, making it difficult for them to perform well in the playoffs.

On that day, the NBA regular season was in full swing, with the Golden State Warriors waiting at home to face off against the Houston Rockets. Prior to this game, the Warriors had a record of 12 wins and 8 losses, ranking 5th in the Western Conference. However, they had not been doing well recently, suffering five consecutive losses. Curry's offensive momentum this season has not been strong, averaging only 22.6 points, which is the lowest he has scored in the past 11 seasons. The newly recruited Hield's efficiency from beyond the arc is not as high as it was at the beginning of the season. The Warriors are also short-handed in the frontcourt, and they have the lowest free throw percentage in the league so far, at only 70.3%, which is 14 percentage points lower than the Knicks, who rank first in the league. Given this situation, it will be quite challenging for the Warriors to establish another dynasty and make a run for the championship. On the other side, the Rockets entered the game with a record of 15 wins and 7 losses, ranking second in the Western Conference. The Rockets' performance this season has been quite surprising, as they have transformed from a weak team two years ago into one capable of making the playoffs. Looking at the Rockets' lineup, it is mostly young players without a clear leader. For example, Jalen Green, who averages the most points, has not performed well overall this season, often getting carried away and lacking efficiency. However, the Rockets often have…

According to the latest reports from American media, the Golden State Warriors have officially announced that head coach Steve Kerr will be leaving his position. The reason behind this decision is that Kerr has gradually lost control of the locker room, with many players questioning his tactical command abilities. Not only have the players expressed their opinions on Kerr's departure, but team owner Joe Lacob also believes it is time to bring in a new coach with extensive coaching experience to lead the team forward. Lacob understands that the team needs new tactical ideas and leadership styles to overcome its current difficulties. At the same time, the Warriors are planning significant adjustments to their roster, aiming to increase the team's overall height to strengthen defensive and competitive capabilities. During Kerr's tenure, he favored recruiting shorter guards, which to some extent led to deficiencies in defense and competition for the team. To change this situation, Lacob has made it clear that he will actively seek out players with outstanding athleticism and obvious height advantages to enhance the team's interior strength. In this series of changes, Bjelica and Kuminga have been included in the Warriors' trade plan, bidding farewell to their teammate Curry. The departure of these two players marks the determination of the Warriors to restructure their lineup for the new season. The team hopes to reshape its competitiveness by introducing players who are more suitable for the team's tactical system and future development. Although this means having to part with some older players, such changes are necessary and urgent for…

The Grizzlies suffered a crushing defeat, losing by 51 points. Is this making people anxious, or has it finally made them realize something? According to American journalist Siegel, the Warriors are planning to trade three young players from their team: Kuminga, Moody, and Bjelica. If the Warriors had this idea during the summer offseason this year, Marquinhos would have already brought his talent to the Golden State. Speaking of Bjelica, everyone originally had high hopes for him, thinking he could perform well. This season, he's in his second year, but unexpectedly, he's not performing as well as his rookie season. In his rookie season, he averaged 9.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 3.7 assists, with a shooting percentage of 45.4% and a three-point percentage of 38.5%. But this season, so far, he's only averaging 8.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 3.5 assists, with a shooting percentage of 39.6% and a three-point percentage of 25.8%. Recently, a brave journalist bluntly stated, "Bjelica hasn't reached the level to be a rotational player yet, the Warriors should bench him and not let him play." American media NBA Memes once mocked Bjelica, saying, "The Warriors actually gave up on George and Marquinhos for him." I have to tell you something, a few days ago, that fake news outlet NBA Centel posted a dynamic saying, "If Bjelica doesn't improve his basketball skills, he'll be kicked out of the Warriors." Then, Draymond Green secretly liked this post... So, Bjelica, who was once a darling, has now become a nuisance to everyone. The Warriors are planning to trade him…
