I thought that the game would be played to the last second like the previous game, but who would have thought that the third quarter would become a watershed for the two teams, to be precise, in the first half of the third quarter, Stephen Jackson dominated the game! Just one minute into the fourth quarter, Jackson assisted Matt Barnes to hit a shot, 9 minutes and 11 seconds Stephen Jackson hit a three-pointer, 8 minutes and 31 seconds, Jackson hit another three-pointer!

After six games, the Warriors defeated the Dallas Mavericks, the first in the regular season, 4-2, creating the first Black Eight history since the first-round series was changed to a best-of-seven system. Looking at the six games that have made people excited, Baron Davis is undoubtedly the one with the most winning points in the Warriors, with Days averaging 25.0 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 1.8 money and 54.0% shooting from the field, and 45.5% three-point shooting all show that he has blown the physically weak Devin Harris into slag, and Stephen Jackson and Jason Richardson have also contributed to it, both of which have become the team's offensive arrows. The former averaged 22.8 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 2.0 steals per game, shooting 45.2% from the field and 47.5% from three-point range, the highest on the team, while the latter averaged 19.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.3 steals, shooting 51.1% from the field, and 34.1% from three-point range.

Matt Barnes became the team's biggest discovery, his greatest contribution to the team is that he not only provided a tough and effective defense, but also became the team's breakthrough on the offensive end, connecting the inside and outside lines, and was also very good at moving the ball, he averaged 28.8 minutes per game, ranked fourth on the team, averaged 10.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.0 resignation assists per game, shooting 45.1% from the field and 40.0% from three-point range, Michael Petrus also deserves praise for his performance, Averaging 7.0 points and 5.3 assists per game, and while he doesn't shoot well from the field at 30.6 percent, he always helps the team in other ways, and Biedlings has taken his chances after an initial disappointment, playing well in the last two games, compared to the team's Monta Ellis and Al Harrington. Ellis was originally the team's first choice to attack the opponent's interior with the ball, but it was obvious that Ellis did not do this task well, he could only score 8.2 points in 26 minutes of playing time per game, shooting less than 40%, Al Harrington averaged 17.0 points per game in regular time, but in the playoffs Harrington couldn't find the feeling of the game at all due to injuries, and ended up averaging only 4.5 points and 5.2 rebounds per game, shooting only 25.8% from the field

The Warriors' second-round opponent was the Utah Jazz, the Jazz fought the Rockets in the first round for seven games, and advanced with difficulty after losing two games, and it was also a very strong team at that time, the team's star was Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer, known as the "Utah Twins", Delon was strong, and his passing ability and ability to lead the team were on par with Baron Davis, Carlos Boozer was still one of the league's biggest killers at the time, and his basket skills were very solid and thick, Strength enough, meet a center with insufficient strength can push singles, meet a center like Yao Ming, Xiao Si can pull out of the penalty area to shoot, Boozer's only drawback is that he is short in height and has limited contribution on the defensive end, these two players perfectly inherited Stockton and Malone's blocking and dismantling system, a simple blocking and dismantling, playing thousands of tricks under Sloan's **.

In this round of the game, the old spicy Sloan saw through the weakness of the Warriors, he took a fancy to the Warriors' disadvantages of interior defense, and frequently used Boozer's singles to create shooting opportunities, Boozer's back skills are much more stable than Nowitzki, and the offense is also very efficient, and once other players miss, Boozer and Oku can rush to grab rebounds and fight for a lot of shooting opportunities for the team.
