This season, the Golden State Warriors, after a brilliant start to the season, have ultimately returned to mediocrity. According to the NBA's latest published offensive and defensive efficiency over the past 10 games, their defense is average, but problems on the offensive end are exposed, dropping them unexpectedly to the third tier, where they can only find relevance among teams like the Wizards, Hornets, and Bulls that are tanking for the draft. The main reasons for this situation are threefold. Firstly, after the NBA mid-season tournament, more teams have studied the Warriors' tactics, especially the close guarding of backup shooter Buddy Hield, which has become even tighter. This substitute who was once considered on par with Klay Thompson has been exposed in recent games, averaging a dismal 20.7% three-point shooting percentage, which is almost unbearable to watch. Without a reliable shooter to provide consistent firepower, the Warriors are unable to tear apart the opponent's defensive formation or create more space, directly limiting the performance of Green, Wiggins, and Kuminga within the paint, and concentrating the team's offensive efforts on individual plays, such low-efficiency operations constrain the team's scoring. Secondly, head coach Steve Kerr does not have a set rotation. Although Tom Thibodeau has a poor reputation in the industry for often using an eight-man rotation, his professionalism lies in maintaining a stable number of players, with other role players simply filling in numbers to help the New York Knicks meet basic team requirements. However, the coaching philosophies of the two coaches differ, as Kerr is more willing to experiment, maintaining…

The twilight of the Warriors dynasty: a major change in management, can Curry achieve his final glory? Can you believe it? The Golden State Warriors actually lost by 51 points in a regular season game! This has chilled the hearts of fans. The victory of the Memphis Grizzlies was like slapping the Warriors in the face, leaving them disoriented. After this battle, everyone is asking: What's wrong with the Warriors? Should management step in to put out the fire? When it comes to the Warriors, who doesn't know they are a legend in the NBA? Relying on Curry's divine shooting, their market value soared from 314millionto314 million to 314millionto9 billion in ten years, just like riding a rocket. However, this season, the Warriors started well with 12 wins and 3 losses, but then came a big slump, losing 9 out of 11 games, especially the loss to the Grizzlies, which left everyone stunned. Owner Joe Lacob and General Manager Bob Myers couldn't sit still; this wasn't going to work. So, management decided to get serious. Myers and Lacob expressed dissatisfaction with the current situation and began considering enhancing the team's strength through trades. Young players like Kuminga, Moses Moody, and Poole were put on the trading block. When this news broke, fans were in an uproar: Is management willing to risk everything? Are they really willing to do this to seize the last opportunity of Curry's career? To be fair, Schroder's arrival did bring significant changes to the Warriors. The World Cup MVP not only relieved some pressure from Curry…

On January 7th, Beijing time, as the schedule progresses in depth, the battle for the Western Conference playoffs has entered a white-hot stage. The three giants who led the West at the beginning of the season now only have the Thunder remaining with their 15-game winning streak, proudly looking down on all others. In contrast to the Western Conference's first-place team at the same time, the Warriors are now ranked eighth in the West, leading the tenth-ranked Spurs by only 0.5 games, while the Suns have completely fallen behind and become the fourth-worst in the West. Speaking of the Warriors, during the offseason, the team did not pursue big-name stars as expected after sending away Paul and Thompson, but simply signed role players like Melton, Hield, and Li Keller to hastily conclude their moves. Just when Warrior fans were questioning Dunleavy's poor recruitment, the Warriors unexpectedly made a comeback to the top of the Western Conference at the beginning of the season with a mediocre roster, leading the league in various statistics and transforming into a dark horse contender for the championship. Although after a long tug-of-war, the team's record has declined, a healthy Warriors squad still fears no strong team in the league. For example, in the previous game against the second-place Grizzlies in the West, the Warriors defeated their opponents 121-113 at home even with Curry resting. However, it was precisely in order to win this crucial match that the Warriors' star player Kuminga suffered an unexpected injury during the game, severely spraining his ankle and had to…
