On March 23, the Warriors defeated the Clippers at home, and although Jordan Jr. played a powerful role on the inside of the Warriors, the Warriors blew the Clippers' outside line into slag.

The season was swept and the Clippers could only console themselves that they were building up for the playoffs

The next Mavericks are the same, they can't stop the Warriors' three strong outside linemen, but they are really building up for the playoffs, and Nowitzki is resting.

Next, the Warriors faced the 76ers, who had the lowest record in the league, and did not let the bloody plot happen, they won easily and did not give the opponent any chance.

67 won, the media outside are excited, it seems that the big news will not be far away.

On March 29, the Warriors were challenged by the Wizards on the road.

Unlike previous teams, the Wizards are fighting for a playoff spot, and they are not willing to give up their game to victory.

The Wizards' defense is not strong, but they are not bad at fighting.

At the beginning of this game, the Wizards were entangled with the Warriors on the outside, both offensively and defensively.

Especially Bill, who came up and played very murderously.

But to limit the Warriors' perimeter, it's not just a matter of trying.

The Warriors let Draymond Green hold the ball, then ran off the ball at three scoring points, and took the ball to the shot.

It's easy to say, but this set of tactics is difficult to limit their opponents.

The attack distance is large, the scoring ability is strong, and the other two points can also be scored.

As long as the defense is a little careless, the Warriors will be able to score, and this is just a normal play of their tactics, if they can't stop it now, every day the gods will come down to earth, and the opponent will definitely have a psychological shadow.

The Wizards didn't fall behind much at halftime, and they kind of resisted.

At halftime, Wizards head coach Randy Whitman kept encouraging his players, "You're doing a good job, you're not worse than the number one in the league, and I'm sure you can do better in the second half...... Beat them and make the playoffs. ”

The Wizards are now at a stage where no one can lose, and in the third quarter, they hit a three-pointer with a must-win momentum to crush the Warriors in one go.

But the warriors immediately returned the color, more than once.

The Warriors also analyzed the defensive problems at halftime, and the marking of Beal in the second half was much tighter, but the Wizards were also resilient, and Markieff Morris stepped up.

The No. 4 position is pulled outside the three-point line to play three-pointers, and the Warriors often play like this, and they really didn't expect the Wizards to be able to play it.

They didn't press the Wizards to death in the third quarter, but extended their lead.

At the beginning of the final quarter, the Wizards' main players with strong scoring ability were on the court, and they were not as laid-back as the Warriors, who could pursue victory with the main team resting.

But they still can't compete with the Warriors on the offensive end, and the backcourt composed of Livingston, Iguodala and Zhang Xiaotian is still very good defensively, perhaps more difficult than the starting lineup.

What's even worse is that they don't have any particularly effective ways to restrict Zhang Xiaotian.

Crush the opponent's defense without pinching, and divide the ball with pinching, Zhang Xiaotian's brilliance of skill champion Although the shooting rate of teammates who receive the ball is not particularly much, it is enough in the game.

You know, his average assists this season have increased by more than three points, and the new skills have helped a lot.

When the Warriors replaced Curry and hit a three-pointer, the Wizards collapsed directly, and the game went into garbage time.

With 68 wins, the Warriors are as steady as dogs.

On March 30, the Warriors went to the road to play back-to-back games against the Jazz, who were also teetering on the brink of the playoffs.

At the end of the season, the hardest opponents to play are not those first-tier teams, but teams that are desperate to get into the playoffs, and the Warriors have two back-to-back opponents of this type, which is definitely not easy.

The Jazz have been unhappy with the No. 1 spot this season and also acquired Hawks backup point guard Shervin Mark in a midseason, a change that has allowed them to improve their defense line offense and defense.

Defense has never been a problem for the Jazz, and the Warriors felt the intensity of the playoffs as soon as the game began.

Fierce confrontation, oppressive defense, Zhang Xiaotian is never afraid, what he has to do is to suppress Hayward, if the game needs to deliver a fatal blow at the end, he must not be soft.

However, the biggest threat to the Jazz to the Warriors is the inside, Faefers and Gobert, both offensive and defensive, Hayward can't stand up in front of Zhang Xiaotian, and the Jazz's outside line will have a chance only if the inside line takes advantage.

Bogut has returned, but the Warriors are best at breaking down the opponent's interior with a small lineup.

Because the Jazz's interior offense can't reach the All-Star level, the Warriors will be killed by the Warriors' small lineup if they only have an advantage.

Why give up your advantage, because you have to give up.

Only the best teams in the league can hold on to their superior tactics and make their opponents change.

But no matter how it changes, the Jazz can't afford to score points on the offensive end, they can only choose to go further defensively, and they also have a few tough players on the bench who like to play physically.

By the time of the second quarter, the defense of both sides had reached a fever pitch.

At halftime, the Warriors led by two points at 42:40.

The previous one to defend the Warriors to this extent was the Spurs last time.

Fortunately, the Jazz gave up the offensive strengthened defense, and the Warriors still lead.

It's not afraid to play the Warriors, unlike those second-block strong teams, there will be problems if you change your style.

In the end, Curry and Zhang Xiaotian can use their personal abilities to solve problems.

In the third quarter, the No. 1 position began to explode with each other, and the Warriors had several other points, Zhang Xiaotian was decent, and Klay Thompson and Green were still very uncomfortable like in the second quarter.

There is nothing to say, at this time, Zhang Xiaotian must stand up.

His characteristics are now very familiar to all teams, and they are in the spotlight for a season, and Zhang Xiaotian's small habits on the court are estimated to have been analyzed many times.

Fortunately, even if he was known to have broken out, he would not be able to stop it.

After all, it is the players on the field who have to fight him, and even if his weaknesses are completely mastered, the defenders in front of him may not be able to take advantage of them.

If the strength is not enough, it is useless to see the flaws of the other party.

In the fourth quarter, Hayward did not go down to rest, and he was in a fight with Zhang Xiaotian in this game.

Hayward is much tougher in his bones than he looks in the outside, and he is also fighting against Zhang Xiaotian with all his strength in front.

However, he didn't rest when Zhang Xiaotian was resting, some things are still unclear to outsiders, Zhang Xiaotian's strength in the last quarter is not just a big heart, he is really stronger.

It's not the first time Hayward has suffered a loss, but after suffering a loss, his memory will be corrected, and he will think that he can get Zhang Xiaotian with a little more effort.

Zhang Xiaotian broke through to be a violent deduction, and told the opponent with practical actions that it was impossible.
