Curry s super talent highlights the mediocrity of his teammates, the Warriors two key rotations are invisible, and the old forwards on the front line are a big help

The current competition in the Western Conference can be said to be very fierce. Except for the Thunder, which is the dominant team, and is obviously at a standstill in terms of record and lineup, the other teams are working closely together. The Spurs welcome the Warriors at home, which is a typical position battle, and the two teams have very distinct characteristics. The Spurs, as a typical youth team, are on the rise. On the contrary, the Warriors are in decline, relying on veterans such as Curry and Butler to barely maintain their competitiveness.

Curry had another superb performance in this battle. In addition to completing the final buzzer-beater, he also scored 49 points and 4 rebounds, leading the Warriors to victory from the Holy City. You must know that Curry's efficiency is actually very high. He hit 16 goals in a total of 26 shots, and he also made 9 three-pointers. It is probably not an exaggeration to say that Curry destroyed the Spurs by himself.

However, Curry's performance further highlighted the mediocrity of his teammates. In this battle, Butler scored 21 points and 8 rebounds with a 50% shooting rate. This was considered as sharing the pressure for Curry, and other teammates could not count on it. In particular, the two key rotations of the Warriors are still in a state of invisibility. The first is shooter Hield. Whether in the early stages of his career or after joining the Warriors, he is unpredictable and constantly switching. He looks like a superstar, but if he is out of form, all the open spaces will be useless. This game is a very typical example. Hield only took one shot in 14 minutes and was completely locked by the Spurs. In addition to scoring, Hield only had 4 rebounds and 1 assist, which really made no positive contributions.

Horford, who joined the Warriors this summer, has continued his sluggish state. Although the veteran will be somewhat slow in the regular season, the Warriors signed Horford more for his performance in the playoffs. But Horford's performance really makes people feel that there is no lower limit. He scored 0 of 4 shots and only had 3 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks. Even if you say that the data cannot reflect Horford's role, I'm afraid no one will be convinced.

Of course, the Warriors escaped completely, thanks to the Spurs' face, especially the help of former striker Barnes. In fact, since the Warriors left, even if Barnes's statistics are much better, but when he meets his old club Warriors, I don't know if he has too many ideas and his overall performance will be abnormal. This game is also the same situation. Barnes only scored 7 points and 4 rebounds, and his role on the court is quite limited. If this continues, Barnes' starting position will also be in danger.
