The Warriors' starting five Tigers are already very familiar to fans.

Curry, Thompson, Barnes, Green and Bogut were the starters that allowed the Warriors to reach the top of the West with 66 wins.

To be exact, there is still one step away from reaching the top of the West. But this step, in the eyes of Warriors fans, is not far off.

On the Grizzlies' side, the starting lineup consists of Link, Butler, Iguodala, Harris and Gasol.

Conley continued to be injured and Link continued to play in the number one position.

Judging by the starting lineup on paper, the Grizzlies are still very tough. But the Grizzlies' biggest problem right now is that serious injury problems have limited roster depth.

The Grizzlies bench who can play right now are Dellavedova and Toney. Aaron, Whiteside, and Aizeli four.

The injuries to Carter and Conley have made the Grizzlies' outside line a little less rotated. Originally, the second and third positions were the two positions with the most abundant reserves for the Grizzlies, but after Link was transferred to play the No. 1 position, the Grizzlies were equivalent to one less candidate for the No. 2 and No. 3 positions.

The strength of the four people who can play on the bench is not weak, but their problems are also obvious - they have no independent offensive ability, and the defense is strong and the attack is weak.

Dellavedova, Tony. Allen, Azeli and Whiteside, all defensive. On offense, one is rougher than the other.

As a result, Link often had to be used to make up for it, which led to a huge drain in March and April.

Therefore, the Grizzlies will be pushed to this point by the Warriors when the starting lineup still looks strong.

It has to be said that injuries are indeed a team's worst enemy.

Although the injury has caused a huge damage to the overall structure of the Grizzlies, fans still believe that the Grizzlies have the possibility to defeat the Warriors.

The reason is simple, Grizzlies have Link!

Moreover, if Link plays the No. 1 position, God knows if Curry can still perform well.

Lillard, Westbrook and Paul know this very well, and they have all been prevented by Link to the point of autism.

Even a defender with the ability to pass the sky has to be compromised in front of Link.

Therefore, the direct confrontation between Curry and Link has also become a major attraction of this game.

After the Warriors fought for the first offense, the live camera immediately gave Curry a close-up.

Curry's ability to play against Link will be the key to whether the Warriors can win the game!

Almost the whole world is playing against Link and Curry, as if this game is a 1v1 between Link and Curry.

But Warriors coach Steve . Kerr doesn't think so, he's a manager, and he's a good manager.

Unlike watching the fans who are boisterous, Cole's task is not to give the fans the games they want to see, but to find a way to win them.

Kerr has considered Link to be a strong player since he commented on the Grizzlies game last season, and even he must admit that his top Curry is no match for Link in terms of individual ability.

Let Curry go toe-to-toe with Link? That would be tantamount to chronic suicide!

But basketball is not a simple 1v1, but it is not a player's personal ability that will definitely win.

When the Warriors started their first offense, Kerr's eyes weren't on Curry, but on Klay. Thompson!

Today, Thompson is one of Kerr's trump cards!

After Curry passed the half, Link didn't press closely, but he didn't give him more space to take a step either.

Crossing the halfcourt line is the range, and it's not an exaggeration to describe Curry as such.

Link has just the right amount of distance on the defensive end, which will not allow Curry to break through easily, and it will not be possible for him to shoot easily.

It's not easy to maintain this sense of distance. Many players have played all their lives, and they can't handle this degree well.

It's not something everyone can do, and otherwise, Link wouldn't have been the best defensive player last season.

Curry knew he was being seen dead, but he wasn't in a hurry and waited for Thompson to take his position.

The "schoolboy" knows that someone can score points for him!

At this time, Clay, who was ambushing in the bottom right corner. Thompson suddenly borrowed Green's off-ball cover and pocketed inside the three-point line.

Curry passed the ball immediately and the timing was just right to get the ball into Thompson's hands.

There is no doubt about the tacit understanding of the "Splash Brothers", they are very familiar with each other's playing habits.

After receiving the basketball, Thompson floated to the shot without fully standing still.

Thompson knew very well that if he waited until he was on his feet before shooting, the fleeting shooting opportunity would be blocked by Butler.

Therefore, you can't stop a step, whether you stand firm or not, you have to shoot when you catch the ball.

For most players, floating shots are something that makes them more difficult.

But for Thompson and Curry, there is almost no difference between floating and standing!

Thompson received the ball and threw it, although his body was floating, his whole body remained very stable, and his shooting action was not affected in any way!

Jimmy. Butler blocked Green as soon as he got rid of him, but no matter how fast he was, he couldn't get faster than Curry's pass and Thompson's shot.

Butler's interference was ultimately a step slower, and Thompson's float shot was hollowed out into the net!

After the ball was scored, Cole shook his fist hard in excitement!

When a coach's tactics work from the beginning, he just can't get excited!

"It's a nice fit, that's what makes the Warriors' offense characteristic. If you look closely, you can see that the Warriors rarely solve problems on the offensive end. Of course, I'm not saying that Curry and Thompson are not strong individually, but behind every shot they make, there are perfect and complex tactics to support it. The Warriors' offense will never be a one-man offense. All five people are running, all covering each other. That way, they can easily get comfortable shots. ”

On the podium, Mark. Jackson's punch line.

Last season, he was in Kerr's position directing the team. But this season, he and Cole have swapped places. He explained, and Cole picked up the whip.

But Mark. Jackson isn't saddened, and he's glad that the team he's single-handedly laying the foundation is shining.

The Warriors put up a perfect opening offense, and after falling to the defensive end, the Warriors were unequivocal.

Kerr won't let Curry go toe-to-toe with Link on the offensive end, and similarly, he won't let Curry go head-to-head on the defensive end.

If Curry is asked to defend Link, it will undoubtedly be to touch the stone with an egg.

After Link controlled the ball and attacked, he found that in front of him was a confident Draymond. Green!

Curry guarded Jimmy. In front of Butler, of course, Butler's attack power is not bad. But Cole believes that only Link can kill the Warriors!

In the game at the end of March, the Warriors relied on this move to stabilize to the end and defeated the Grizzlies.

Today, Cole is doing it again. Draymond. Green, this is Cole's second trump card!

"Aren't you going to step over my corpse? Come on, Lao Tzu is waiting for you! ”

As soon as Link got close to Green, the guy started babbling and squirting.

When the Warriors' 16-game winning streak was ended, Green had a ball that was directly shaken off by Link, and then watched Link attack the basket with ease.

In Green's mind, it was the most humiliating defense he's ever experienced.

Since then, every time Green has defended Link, he's been very excited.

Excitement doesn't just mean that Green will be more serious, it also means that Link will suffer more.

The whole world knows that Draymond. Green's defense has historically been associated with the word "clean."

Instead of calling for cover, Link hopes to make the whole team's offensive efficiency play by organizing the offense.

So, he ended up with a delicate pass to the ground and sent the ball to Tobias, who cut inside. Harris in his hands.

Harris bravely broke through to the layup, completely ignoring the "North Carolina Blackhawks" next to him.

But he forgot that the center of the Warriors is also a bad guy to mess with.

Australian Andrew. Bogut rushed up without reservation, and seeing Bogut's menacing appearance, Harris chose to throw his shot.

The basketball went over Bogut's fingertips, but Harris wasn't so lucky.

He was dropped to the ground by Bogut's shoulder, and the throw was too hasty to fall short of the target.

As soon as he came up, Harris was dismounted, and the "brothers" of Bogut and Green had no intention of restraining at all!

While Harris was still lying on the ground covering his head, Bogut grabbed the rebound and handed the ball to Curry.

Curry, Thompson and Barnes were down in threes, and all the Grizzlies' attention was on the three of them.

But in the end, Curry, who burst into the free throw line, threw the ball back of his head and sent it to Green.

Green receives the basketball at the top of the three-point arc and is unguarded!

Harris, who was defending him, had just taken a bad shot from Bogut, and now he was just getting up.

Link hurriedly turned his gun and lunged at Green, but it was too late.

Green calmly shot and scored three points into the net!

5-0, the Warriors' start was perfect!

"Lao Tzu can keep going like this today, and you will become a corpse!"

After the goal, Green sprayed at Link again, and the cheers in the stands of Oracle Arena were very enthusiastic.

As soon as the game began, the momentum of the Warriors completely overshadowed the Grizzlies. Everyone jumped up and down excitedly, as if celebrating the victory in advance.

The corners of Kerr's mouth curled slightly, and the two key points of his win today, Thompson and Green, were both in form. He wanted to see how Link won today!

If a warrior can defeat a grizzly bear once, he can defeat a second time, a third time!

After the Warriors played a perfect 5-0 opening, the firepower never stopped.

Curry scored just six points on 2-of-4 shooting in the first quarter and didn't have a three-point shooting record.

It has to be said that Link's restriction on Curry has been very successful indeed.

But Thompson completely exploded, and he held back his strength before the game, and wanted to calculate the old account with Link, and the "Tang God" shot 4 of 4 in the first quarter, and scored 11 points with a 100% shooting rate!

Kobe Bryant was sweating profusely off the court, and Thompson's hand today made people shudder. He thought to himself, even if he did, he probably couldn't do anything about Thompson today.

After all, that guy who doesn't look good has performed more than one miracle this season.

If he performs like that, it means that the Warriors' opponents will suffer.

In the first quarter, with Thompson's 11 points and 100% shooting, the Warriors led the Grizzlies by 9 points at 30-21!

Everyone knows that it was game time that saved the Grizzlies. If Thompson had played a few more minutes, the Grizzlies would have definitely fallen behind by double digits!

But Warriors fans weren't in a hurry, and in the second quarter, they had time to slowly torture the Grizzlies.

On the night of "Buddha's light", no one is immune!
