Translation of the content: Today, the Golden State Warriors faced off against the Los Angeles Clippers on the road and ultimately suffered a loss without Stephen Curry and Draymond Green. It was expected that Dennis Schroder might have a breakout game given Curry's absence, but Schroder did not step up to help the team score. He finished the game with only 7 points, shooting 3-of-11 from the field and 0-of-6 from beyond the arc. Additionally, he was benched by Coach Steve Kerr in the final quarter and played only 24 minutes in total. Schroder has played several games with the Warriors since joining the team, but he seems to be struggling to adapt, with consistently poor performances in recent matches. The Warriors had hoped that Schroder, as a strong ball-handler, could change their current situation, but it appears to be a case of "changing the soup but not the medicine." Schroder is finding it difficult to become the second primary ball-handler after Curry. In today's game, this role was not filled by Schroder or Andrew Wiggins, but by Jonathan Kuminga. However, all fans are well aware that Kuminga is not a stable player. While he may have a good performance in one game, when opponents target him defensively, his lack of consistent shooting ability makes it hard for him to score efficiently every game. This means that the Warriors currently have several unstable points: Wiggins is inconsistent, Kuminga is inconsistent, and now Schroder is also inconsistent. The Warriors have once again fallen into their previous predicament, with their biggest weakness…

As the NBA regular season progresses, trade rumors swirl throughout the league, not only among fans but also within the minds of players and management as they contemplate various potential trade scenarios. Amidst this seemingly calm tide of transactions, the potential trade between the Golden State Warriors and the Brooklyn Nets is nothing short of a grand drama, full of highlights and variables. Today, let's delve into how the Warriors, in desperate need of reinforcement for their playoff push, and the Nets, resolute on their path of rebuilding, have come together in a deal that could bring tumultuous waves to the league. The protagonist of this trade is none other than Schroder. If you've watched the recent matchup between the Nets and the Warriors, you'll undoubtedly be impressed by Schroder's performance on the court. In that game, Schroder unleashed his full offensive prowess, going 10 for 18 from the field, including 4 for 8 from beyond the arc, amassing an impressive 31 points, 5 rebounds, and 7 assists, truly operating in god mode. Not to mention the scene where he led the Nets to a comeback victory against the Warriors. Everyone knows that the Warriors' defense has always been top-tier in the league, yet they found no way to counter Schroder's firepower. Schroder's display prompted the Warriors' management to exclaim: "This guy, we must get him!" However, it's not just the Warriors who are envious of Schroder's performance. The Nets, as a team in the midst of rebuilding, have had their own calculations regarding Schroder during his high-profile moments: This…

Before the game, the Warriors announced that Curry would not play against the Clippers and would return in the next game against the Suns. It's obvious that Durant is really pitiful, having just lost to the Mavericks today, and tomorrow he has to play back-to-back against the Warriors, still as an away game. Of course, the weakened Warriors had no way to deal with the Clippers, and the Clippers eventually defeated the Warriors 102-92 to win two consecutive victories. In fact, the Warriors started strong in the first quarter, with Harden starting 1 for 5 and not very interested in shooting, while the Clippers' tactics were still the usual pick-and-roll. Kerr's strategy today was to attack with defense, starting Schroder and Hield, two guns who can score without defense. Then Li Keller was promoted to start at the four position, Wiggins at three, plus center Davis. The Warriors were organized by Li Keller and finished by Davis, but Wiggins had poor shooting, while the Clippers' offense was average, but their defense was good enough to contain the opponent. The Warriors only scored 21 points in the first quarter, while the Clippers scored 19. It wasn't until the second quarter that the Clippers didn't give them a chance, and Harden started to take over. Before halftime, Harden hit two key threes to help the team lead the Warriors 49-43. Harden had 10 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists, and 1 block in the first half, shooting 3 for 7 and 2 for 4 from three-point range. That block was impressive. He fell…

NBA regular season has been underway for over two months, with a wild and chaotic league landscape. So far, only two teams in the league have a winning percentage above 80%, namely the Cavaliers and Thunder; there are also two teams with a winning percentage above 70%, namely the Rockets and Celtics; there are three teams with a winning percentage above 60%, namely the Grizzlies, Mavericks, and Knicks; and as many as 11 teams in the league have a winning percentage between 50% and 60%, including the Nuggets, Lakers, Clippers, Suns, Timberwolves, Warriors, Spurs, Magic, Bucks, Heat, and Hawks. The Golden State Warriors are stuck in the play-in tournament area and cannot escape. Instead of saying that the Wild West is getting more competitive, it might be more accurate to say that their own strength is not strong enough. The 36-year-old Curry is tired and struggling, and the Warriors' prospects are not optimistic! In the season so far, the Warriors have achieved a record of 15 wins and 14 losses, tied with the Suns and Timberwolves (both 15-14), temporarily ranking 10th in the West, just 0.5 games ahead of the 11th-ranked Spurs (15-15), and 1.5 games behind the 5th-ranked Nuggets (17-13), 6th-ranked Lakers (17-13), and 7th-ranked Clippers (17-13). In short, the Warriors have a pack of wolves in front of them and ferocious tigers behind them, and every game's victory or defeat is crucial! Unfortunately for the Warriors, they are experiencing a season of high starts and low finishes, with a recent state that is pitiful to behold! According to…

On December 27th, Beijing time, we continue to focus on the NBA league. In the Christmas Day game between the Mavericks and the Timberwolves, Doncic suffered a calf injury in the second quarter and had to withdraw from the game. Subsequently, after examination by medical institutions, it was confirmed that Doncic suffered a left calf strain and will undergo a re-examination in a month. Before leaving the game, Doncic played for 16 minutes, shooting 9 of 5, 3-pointers 5 of 3, free throws 1 of 1, scoring 14 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 steal. Currently, the Mavericks are ranked fourth in the West with a record of 19 wins and 11 losses. Irving just said they were building a dynasty, but now Doncic is injured, which will have a significant impact on the team's performance. The situation in the West changes every day, and with their star player out for at least a month, the Mavericks are likely to fall behind. Let's also pay attention to the Lakers, which makes fans very helpless. According to NBA reporters, the Lakers missed a rare opportunity before the trade window. Originally, the Lakers had a chance to get Valanciunas, similar to the Warriors and Schroder's trade, almost a sure thing. However, unfortunately, at a critical moment, the Lakers failed to act in time and missed the opportunity to trade with Valanciunas. Currently, the distance between the Lakers and Valanciunas is growing further apart, and fans are very disappointed. But for now, the Lakers have to focus on Vucevic of the Bulls.…

The NBA regular season has reached its mid-point, and many teams in the league are considering trades. The Heat and Pacers have already made a 1-for-1 trade, with the Heat sending Thomas Bryant to the Pacers in exchange for a future second-round draft pick swap. This move aims to free up a roster spot for potential future trades and to convert two-way contracts into official ones. The Heat has been very active in the trade market recently, even openly stating that they would consider trading their star player, Butler. Last season, the Heat's performance was average, with Butler getting older, suffering from injuries, and his average stats gradually declining. There has been no repeat of last year's playoff upset against the Bucks. To ensure better future development for the team, Butler might really be traded away. Similarly, several top teams are particularly active in the trade market, eager to make significant adjustments to their rosters, with the Los Angeles Lakers being one such team. The Lakers started the season well but faltered as the schedule progressed. James, at 40 years old, is not as capable as he once was, and Davis' dominance in the paint is inconsistent. Crucially, the Lakers' role players are significantly inferior when compared to other strong teams. As a Western Conference scout said, if Reeves can be considered the Lakers' third-best player, it will be difficult for them to compete for the championship. Recently, the Lakers have also been looking for a star player to help them out. They have inquired about the cost of acquiring…
