The Warriors played a beautiful team basketball game without Curry, which showed that they are still competitive even without their star player. The Grizzlies, on the other hand, exposed some issues after losing on the road. In this game, the Warriors demonstrated strong team cohesion, with Wiggins scoring the highest of 24 points while also limiting the opponent's offense on defense, reminiscent of his outstanding performance in the championship season. Schroder put up an efficient 17-point performance off the bench, replacing Curry. His drives and passes kept the Warriors' offensive system running smoothly, proving that his signing at the beginning of the season was a wise choice. Although Green only scored 9 points, his organization and defensive support on the court were still very beneficial to the team, especially his defensive disruptions in the fourth quarter that directly stalled the Grizzlies' offense. Hield and Kuminga also had excellent performances off the bench, scoring 14 and 13 points respectively. They hit consecutive three-pointers in a small surge in the second quarter, helping the team establish a lead. Davis didn't score much, but his 11 points and 9 rebounds showed his dominance in the paint, especially his rebound protection on defense, effectively limiting the Grizzlies' second-chance opportunities. Waters also had an efficient 16-point performance off the bench, scoring consecutively in the third quarter to stabilize the situation, showing the depth of the Warriors' bench. Although Li Kairui only scored 7 points, his defensive intensity and positivity on the court are worth recognizing, especially during the rotation lineup period, his defensive positioning repeatedly…

Michael Porter Jr.'s second-half performance of 21 points helped the Nuggets force overtime, where Nikola Jokic's dominant play secured the victory and revenge against the Spurs.

From the time the new owner of the Suns, Ishbia, took over the team, they have been eager to take shortcuts to win the championship, at all costs to create a Durant, not, Beal three giants combination! However, the Suns are ambitious but fragile! The three giants of the Suns are plagued by injuries, one injury just healed, another falls down, and so on, which makes people feel sorry for their misfortune and angry with their struggle, and the Suns also have an empty championship dream!

The Nuggets managed to reverse the Spurs with a score of 122-111 in overtime, while the Warriors defeated the Grizzlies 121-113 at home. These two games not only brought intense competition to the fans but also caused dramatic changes in the Western Conference landscape. The game between the Nuggets and the Spurs was destined to be a tough battle. Despite the Nuggets' upset in the previous match, where Jokic failed to lead the team to a comeback in the final moments, today's game saw the Nuggets quickly adjust their state, especially with Jokic's heroic performance. In the first quarter, Jokic quickly entered the game, scoring 14 points in a single quarter to lead the Nuggets to keep up with the score. Although the Spurs suddenly increased their efforts in the third quarter, with Wenyamama leading the team to a 37-27 single-quarter result, instantly widening the point difference to double digits, the Nuggets did not give up easily. In the fourth quarter, the Nuggets relied on a 12-4 offensive climax to reduce the score to just 3 points, entering a white-hot stage of the game. At a critical moment, Porter hit an important three-pointer, helping the Nuggets tie the score at 104-104.

NBA regular season, the Warriors defeated the Grizzlies 121-113 at home. The Warriors played well in this game, maintaining the lead in each quarter, which allowed them to steadily secure the victory. Six players had perfect scores throughout the game. Schroder's performance is getting better and better, which is reassuring. Previously, Schroder was ineffective with or without the ball, but now that chemistry has developed, he can activate the team and score himself. He finished with 17 points and 9 assists, controlling the rhythm of the game. Wiggins was also a major highlight, scoring 18 points in the third quarter alone. Although he only scored 24 points in total, he could hold off the Grizzlies' counterattacks and maintain defensive intensity, which is commendable. Hield and Waters had very high shooting percentages in this game. Waters was present on the court in the final quarter, able to score consecutively, finishing with 16 points. Hield, despite missing shots in previous games, scored 14 points in this one, including 4 out of 7 three-pointers. This was his most accurate game in the last five. Kuminga continued to provide stable output, scoring 13 points in 15 minutes, but unfortunately suffered an injury, spraining his ankle, which should not be a major issue. Li Kaili dominated the final quarter, during which time he was both offensive and defensive, even revitalizing the offensive rhythm. Unfortunately, Kerr did not use him much previously. Li Kaili finished with 7 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, and 2 blocks, performing very well. TJD, Green, Moody, and Spencer all…

On January 5th, Beijing time, an NBA regular season match took place, with the Warriors hosting the Grizzlies. Prior to this game, the Grizzlies had a record of 23 wins and 12 losses, ranking second in the Western Conference, while the Warriors had a record of 17 wins and 16 losses, ranking ninth in the West. Both teams have one thing in common: they both have more than 10 players in their rotation. However, when facing the Grizzlies, the Warriors seem like Li Kui and Li Gui (two characters from Chinese folklore, one real and one fake). Even with numerous injuries, the Grizzlies maintain an average score of 123.5 points per game, ranking first in the league, with both offensive and defensive efficiency among the top five in the league. They also lead the league in creating 24.9 free throw attempts per game on average, and their bench averages 49 points per game, which is also the highest in the league! The Warriors don't have as many injuries, but head coach Steve Kerr has yet to find a suitable starting lineup, including the bench. Players like Li Kyle either start or do not play at all, leaving no room for compromise. Interestingly, in their last encounter, the Warriors suffered a crushing 51-point defeat at the hands of the Grizzlies, with Curry scoring only 2 points on 7 attempts and losing by 41 points on the court! The two teams have been harboring resentment since the 2022 playoffs, and every time they meet, they tend to engage in high-scoring games. Before…

The Golden State Warriors defeated the Memphis Grizzlies in a regular season game on January 5th, Beijing time. Despite the absence of Stephen Curry, the Warriors played a smooth offensive game, maintaining their lead throughout the first three quarters and extending it in the final quarter to secure a 121-113 victory. In this game, Andrew Wiggins and Dennis Schroder led the team. Wiggins took control of the situation in the third quarter, with his consecutive scoring helping the team to pull away. He finished the game with 24 points, shooting 9 for 17, which is above his average. Schroder has fully adapted to the team in the last two games, especially when holding the ball, he can connect with his teammates and maintain the rhythm. He scored 17 points himself, and his performance has been getting better, becoming a key player in the backcourt. The two shooters, Buddy Hield and Jaylen Hoard, also had strong performances. Their form had been inconsistent recently, but Hield shot 4 for 7 from beyond the arc, scoring 14 points. Hoard's three-point shooting was particularly good in the fourth quarter, going 4 for 5 from three-point range, helping the team maintain their lead and finishing with 16 points. With these two players performing well, the support from the perimeter is sufficient. Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody were able to maintain stable output. Kuminga had a very efficient game, scoring 13 points on 4 for 6 shooting, but unfortunately, he did not play in the second half due to an injury sustained in the first half.…

Warriors Defeat Grizzlies 121-113! Curry's Latest News, The Real Challenge Isn't Winning, It's Kerr's Post-game Comments On January 5th, Beijing time, the Warriors played against the Grizzlies at home. The game ended with the Warriors successfully defeating the Grizzlies 121-113. In this game, the Warriors were without Curry, so they faced significant challenges in trying to win against the Grizzlies. However, the Warriors quickly took the lead and maintained it throughout the game. When the Grizzlies attempted to catch up, the Warriors consistently responded, especially in the third quarter when Wiggins' performance was crucial for the Warriors to maintain their lead. In the fourth quarter, as the Grizzlies were about to overtake, Green and Schroder hit key three-pointers, followed by a three-pointer from Waters, which ultimately secured the victory for the Warriors. Curry missed the game due to a knee injury, and there is new information regarding his condition. After the game, Kerr mentioned that Curry may not necessarily sit out back-to-back games for the rest of the season, but during this period, he will rest due to his knee tendinitis. The training team believes that, for now, it is most reasonable not to let him play in back-to-back games. However, this situation may change as things progress. It is clear that the reason Curry did not play today, aside from his injury, is because the Warriors have upcoming back-to-back games. Therefore, Curry did not participate, and the Warriors' approach is correct since Curry is vital to the team. The Warriors need to ensure Curry's health, and since they can…
