In NBA history, scoring 30,000 points is a remarkable achievement. Although there is no trophy or championship title associated with it, the 30,000-point club is an elite league for the strongest players. Looking back at NBA history, very few players have been able to achieve this feat, making it even more prestigious than the regular-season MVP award. So, how difficult is it to break the 30,000-point record? Among active players, aside from LeBron James' 40,000 points, there are seven others who have scored over 20,000 points, including Stephen Curry, who still needs 5,729 points. Here are two current players who have the best chance of reaching this milestone. Lillard: No Chance One of the top scorers in the league, Lillard is also one of the few who has maintained an average of 25 points throughout his career. However, Lillard's biggest issue lies in being a late draft pick; he turned 34 this year. With a current total of 21,794 points, it's clear that as he becomes a veteran, his performance is visibly declining, and his attendance rate is no longer guaranteed. Given his age, it's highly unlikely that he will reach the 30,000-point mark. Paul: No Chance A testament to traditional point guards, Paul is known as the "Point God" for his well-rounded abilities, excelling in scoring, defense, organizing, and shooting. Currently, Paul has a career total of 22,608 points, but at 39 years old, his average score this year has dropped below 9 points. Therefore, Paul has no chance of joining the 30,000-point club. DeRozan: Slim Chance One of…

On January 6, 2025, Beijing time, the Golden State Warriors suffered a crushing defeat at home, losing 99-129 to the Sacramento Kings. The Warriors experienced a massive 30-point loss throughout the game. Despite fielding their full starting lineup, the team's poor three-point shooting and overall performance left them unable to mount a comeback against the Kings' onslaught, falling behind early and ultimately unable to recover. Following this defeat, the Warriors' record dropped to 18 wins and 17 losses, temporarily ranking ninth in the Western Conference, with a significant gap from the playoff spots. The Warriors' offensive core in this game was still Stephen Curry, but even so, the team's overall performance did not meet expectations. The Warriors' three-point shooting accuracy was disappointingly low, with only 12 out of 35 attempts finding the mark, directly impacting their offensive rhythm. Curry played for 35 minutes in the game, making 8 out of 12 shots for 26 points, 7 rebounds, and 1 steal. He shot 4 out of 8 from beyond the arc and made all 6 free throws. Although his individual performance was commendable, the team's overall mistakes and poor three-point shooting made it difficult for the Warriors to reverse the outcome. Notably, despite the Warriors' crushing defeat, Curry set an unprecedented record in this game. He has now completed 238 games in his career where he achieved the "50-40-90" shooting percentages (50% field goal, 40% three-point, 90% free throw), surpassing Reggie Miller to become the record holder in NBA history for this achievement. Miller accomplished this feat 236 times in his…

NBA regular season continues to play, the Warriors lost at home with a score of 99-129 against the Kings, ending their two-game winning streak. In this game, the Warriors suffered a collapse from the start, unable to score on offense and being overwhelmed on defense, trailing by 15 points in the first quarter at home. In the second quarter, although the Warriors' offensive state slightly improved, their small lineup could not contain the Kings, allowing the opponents to score 39 points again in a single quarter, with the point difference widening to over 20 points. The Warriors' poor momentum continued into the second half, as they were unable to produce effective offense and defense in the third quarter, with the point difference growing even larger, exceeding 30 points. In the final quarter, the Warriors struggled to catch up, and Coach Kerr decided not to bring back the core players to the court, surrendering early and accepting the defeat. After the loss, the Warriors' record stands at 18 wins and 17 losses. So where exactly did they lose in this game? Perhaps the data can give us some answers. Curry shot 8 out of 12, made 4 out of 8 three-pointers, and went 6 for 6 from the free-throw line, scoring 26 points with 7 rebounds, 1 steal, and 4 turnovers. Curry's personal offensive performance was actually quite good today, as he maintained a high offensive efficiency and scored well despite facing multiple defenders. However, there was no one around him to step up and share the scoring burden. With Kuminga's…

Defeat! Warriors' Five Tigers with 76+21, Xiaosa with 22+13+7, Monk Sets Record, Western No. 8 Changes Hands On January 6, 2025, Beijing time, the 18-win and 16-loss Warriors faced the 16-win and 19-loss Kings at home. The Warriors were playing back-to-back games, having defeated the Grizzlies the day before. The Kings had an advantage in terms of physical fitness, but Curry did not play yesterday, so his energy was not a concern. Who would win today's game? The Warriors were missing Kuminga, with their starting lineup being Curry, Schroder, Wiggins, Green, and Davis. The Kings were without Fox, with their starting lineup being Monk, Ellis, DeRozan, Murray, and Xiaosa. In the first quarter, Monk, Murray, and Xiaosa started with a 7-0 lead. Green and Wiggins responded with three-pointers, while Ellis and DeRozan countered for the Kings, leading to a score of 12-6. Curry, Hield, and Wiggins scored points, followed by Monk scoring 5 consecutive points and Hert's three-pointer, creating an 8-point gap. Wiggins made a layup, but Ellis, Hert, and Xiaosa responded strongly, increasing the gap to 13 points. Curry hit a three-pointer, but Ellis, Xiaosa, and DeRozan responded even more powerfully, extending the lead to 18 points. Hield and Schroder scored, and Carter made 1 of 2 free throws. At the end of the first quarter, the Kings led 36-21. In the second quarter, Carter made a jumper, giving the Kings a 17-point lead. Wiggins and Curry narrowed the gap to 13 points, but DeRozan made both free throws, maintaining a 15-point lead. Curry scored 8 points on his…

Recently, the results of the first round of voting for the highly anticipated 2025 NBA All-Star Game have been officially announced. This list not only showcases the enthusiasm of the fans but also sparked many unexpected discussions. From Giannis Antetokounmpo's continued dominance as the top vote-getter to LeBron James' rare fall out of the top three, and Curry's ranking that evokes a sigh, this voting is full of highlights. Let's take a look at where these highly anticipated players stand and what changes may occur in the future! Giannis Antetokounmpo: Leading the Way, Is the Top Spot Secure? According to official data, Giannis has received an impressive 1,710,630 votes, firmly occupying the top spot with a significant lead over other players. For Giannis, such a performance is not surprising. As one of the league's top superstars, his dominance and appeal are beyond question. It's worth noting that in previous All-Star voting, Giannis has won the "top vote-getter" title multiple times. This time, leading the list again is the best affirmation of his consistent performance. Of course, the All-Star voting is always full of variables, and the upcoming game performances will still be key. Some players may attract more votes with outstanding performances, posing a challenge to Giannis' leading position. However, there is no doubt that according to the current trend, Giannis has a high possibility of becoming the top vote-getter. LeBron James: Controversy Over Ranking Drop, Can He Make a Strong Comeback? The biggest "upset" in this voting might be LeBron James' unexpected ranking. The data shows that "LBJ" received…

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…

Curry has scored 573 points this season, what about Harden, Durant, and James? The games of 2024 have all come to an end, and the regular season has passed one-third of its schedule. So, let's take a look at how many points each star player has scored so far this season. Curry This season, Curry has played 26 games, averaging 31.2 minutes per game, scoring 22 points, grabbing 4.7 rebounds, dishing out 6.4 assists, and making 1.2 steals, with a shooting percentage of 43.7% and a three-point percentage of 40.1%, accumulating a total of 573 points so far. Compared to last season, Curry's statistics have declined to some extent this year, with his shooting percentage being the lowest in the past five seasons. It is precisely because of Curry's inconsistent performance that the Warriors are currently on the fringes of the play-in tournament. Durant There is no doubt that Durant is still one of the best scorers in the league, even with Booker and Beal, two great offensive players by his side, he can still average 27.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 3.8 assists, with a shooting percentage of 51.2% and a three-point percentage of 41.1%. However, due to injury, Durant has only played 22 games so far, accumulating 610 points. Harden Due to Leonard's absence, Harden has proven to the outside world that he is still the unstoppable ball-dominant core. This season, Harden has played 32 games, averaging 21.9 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 7.8 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 39.3% and a three-point percentage of 34.7%, accumulating…

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…

Just 100 Games! Wen Ban Brushed Off NBA Historical Records, Is the Awkwardness of Min Lulei Going to Reappear?‌ Wen Ban Yama, leading the San Antonio Spurs, faced off against the Denver Nuggets in a focal match, which was also a direct confrontation between the superstar rookie and the current NBA's top player, Jokic. Due to the absence of Gordon and Sohan, the two directly engaged from the first round of the game, making it a true face-to-face battle. In the NBA, it's rare for both teams' star players to be matched up throughout the game, especially for superstars. Both Wen Ban Yama and Jokic are centers and top stars in the league, so they should be directly matched up according to normal positioning. However, previous games had Gordon and Sohan defending Wen Ban Yama and Jokic, preventing them from directly facing each other. This is an unwritten rule among NBA head coaches, avoiding having their star players defend the opponent's strongest point. In this game, Wen Ban Yama played 33 minutes, shooting 14 out of 22, including 4 out of 6 three-pointers, scoring 35 points, 18 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and 2 blocks, leading the Spurs to defeat the Nuggets by a 3-point advantage. Although Jokic also scored 41 points, 18 rebounds, 9 assists, and 2 steals, he played 37 minutes, shooting 15 out of 36, with a three-pointer of 3 out of 10, far below his average efficiency. Wen Ban Yama achieved similar stats with less playing time, fewer shots, higher shooting and three-point percentages, and most…
