Chapter Eighty-Seven: Reflections on a Fiasco

As for the introduction of players, many people have given a plan, but what is very unexpected is that many people have suggested the introduction of Iverson and McGrady

These two people have been away from the league for a long time, and they have almost become legends in the league, Iverson's degree and change of direction, Maddie's ** three points and 35 seconds are still the topic of conversation in the league, so even if the decline in the competitive state of the two people is obvious to all, there are still people who believe that these two veterans still definitely have the strength to play their residual heat

The reason why many people suggest these two people, perhaps there is another point that has a lot to do with them, that is, the two of them and the playing style of Cairns and Lin Fei

Lin Fei and Iverson play in a way that is undoubtedly very close, both are extremely fast, and they are keen on shootingAt that time, some people thought that Lin Fei might be Iverson's successor, and later some people said that Lin Fei might be Iverson who had strengthened his shooting, until later Lin Fei's development trend became more and more out of control, and the topic of Iverson and Lin Fei was not mentioned, and Cairns and Maddie, naturally, needless to say, until now, people still think that Cairns's way of playing is so similar to Maddie, they are both swing guards, are able to play point guard, scoring guard, small forward on the basketball court, and all have players with strong scoring ability, and at the same time have a wide field of vision

If Iverson and Maddie are introduced, the two will obviously not be able to reach the combat effectiveness of Lin Fei and Cairns in the team, after all, Iverson and Maddie are already old, even if they take a step back, even if Iverson and Maddie are at the peak of their careers, the two of them together will definitely not reach the level of Lin Fei and Cairns, because Iverson and Maddy have no one who can reach the ability to average 40 points per game, and no one can focus on defense as much as Cairns, but if the two join, It will definitely be able to relieve the pressure on the Warriors to a certain extent, because the arrival of the two will hardly have to run in the tactics to a large extent, and his style of play can adapt well to the team

In fact, at the beginning of the season, many people put forward such suggestions, but at that time, the atmosphere in the Warriors team was quite good, and the players did not seem to break that harmonious state, and at the same time, the management and coaching staff also felt that it was not much help for the Warriors' combat effectiveness at that time

However, this is no longer what it used to be, and the situation of the Warriors now is definitely difficult to compare with the Warriors at the beginning of the season, for them to be able to make the Warriors a little bit stronger, for the possibility of a little bit of victory for the Warriors, they must grasp it, but they will still weigh a lot

For the Warriors, there is a great upside, that is, both Iverson and Maddy are so eager to return to the league again, they have created no longer the arrogance of their youth, and if they can give them the opportunity to return to the league, they may be very satisfied, and they should not care whether to play the bench or play the main team

Today's Iverson and Maddy are both playing in foreign leagues and still have contracts, if you want to solve the current problem, it may still be a little difficult to deal with the contract problem, after all, Iverson and Maddy's league are also in the middle of the game, and Iverson and Maddy are unlikely to give up so many interests, even if the Warriors can succeed, they are bound to pay a high cost

The Warriors management has been hesitating since they were approached, and when they asked D'Antony, D'Antoni hesitated a little or vetoed it, after all, Iverson and Maddy are not D'Antoni's preferred players, for D'Antoni at present, he does not need a person who can make do with Lin Fei and Keynes on the court, but lacks the backbone of the team, lacks a core player, whether it is Iverson or Maddy, Now they can no longer be responsible, if it were Iverson or Maddie 10 years ago, D'Antoni might not hesitate to let it in, but now, they are no longer the dish D'Antoni needs...,

There are still people clamoring for a trade, but who can be put on the shelf of the Warriors today? Even if it is a trade, the Warriors will never trade a player who can save the current situation of the Warriors, and the Warriors don't seem to have any bargaining chips to trade now, except for Lin Fei and Keynes, several young players basically have no other team to fancy Besides, when the Warriors can stay healthy, the strength is obvious to all, if the trade is not good, even when the Warriors recover their health, the Warriors will not be able to be strong again, this is undoubtedly drinking to quench thirst If the trade, it will be a gamble, A gamble with little chance of winning

While there is still a heated discussion about what the Warriors should do, the game between the Warriors and the 76ers is already on schedule

76ers Bynum was holding back his strength at this time, and when he was on the Lakers, he was able to turn the river and sea on the inside of the Warriors with limited shooting rights, and now he has become the core of this team, almost with unlimited right to fire, in the Warriors, wouldn't he still fight to the death, crazy brush his degree, and he may still be proud, because in the past between the Warriors and the Lakers, Lin Fei killed the Lakers, and the Lakers traded Howard in the first place, he wanted to prove that the Lakers' choice was absolutely wrong, and his strength would not be worse than Howard's, the Lakers made a very stupid decision, and the Warriors were obviously a good counterpoint

The Warriors used Curry to replace Lin Fei into the lineup and wanted to start trying the team's team offense and group defense

After all, there is a gap in strength between the two teams

In this game, Bynum can only say that he almost does whatever he wants, directly scoring 28 points + 22 rebounds of crazy data, and the 76ers' scoring guard Turner is also quite good, directly scoring a triple-double, however, this may not be the reason for the 76 victory, the real reason is that the 76ers' defense is extremely strong

In this game, the Warriors scored the lowest score of 99 points in the last dozen games, which is almost the only game in which the Warriors scored less than 100 points in more than 100 seasons in more than 100 games

In fact, in this game, Curry also played very well, getting 24 points + 14 assists and Smith was not bad as a substitute, scoring 16 points directly, but the Warriors lost badly, because the data of other players almost decreased to a certain extent, and almost all of them were reduced in the case of their increased shots, that is, their shooting percentage decreased, and their efficiency on the court also decreased

In fact, under Curry's organization, the Warriors' offense actually seems to be smooth, but even after Curry divides the ball, teammates still can't shoot the ball into the basket even if they are in a good position

The first point of analyzing the reasons for their failure may be that after they lost Lin Fei, they lost the backbone of the team, which had a strong psychological effect so that these players began to be unconfident on the court, which affected the second point may be because when Lin Fei existed on the court, he had a strong pulling effect, and once Lin Fei left, although Curry's breakthrough could create a good opportunity for his teammates, but because Curry could not attract a lot of defense, Curry's three-point shooting was received from his teammates. And he also needs the opportunity to shoot in time and space, when he holds the ball, he generally chooses to pass, long-range three-point is almost impossible for him, which definitely reduces a lot of defensive pressure for defensive players, which may be the biggest difference between Lin Fei and Curry

The 76ers can be said to have stunned the Warriors all at once

Originally, D'Antoni still wanted to rely on the Warriors' remaining lineup to gamble, but looking at this game with only 99 points, there was even a slight chill in his heart After all, when the Warriors three years ago did not have Lin Fei and Keynes, even under the leadership of the old Nelson, they could not enter the playoffs, and Aix and Jobs at that time were also in their peak state, and Clauderson at that time was also in his playing years, and Curry was also a powerful guard in the league at that time. For many teams to be optimistic that they will not be able to make the playoffs, not to mention, the Warriors, who are now three years old, have experienced a certain degree of decline in the state of Aix and Jobs, which is obvious to all, and their data may still be excellent, but we all know that they are only stained with the light of the Warriors' accelerating offensive tempo, and their data are more or less "exaggerated"

Many people say that the current situation of the Warriors is the bane planted by the old Nelson, they rely too much on players like Lin Fei, and when D'Antoni took over, they began to try to cultivate Keynes, but after Keynes was injured, D'Antoni intensified his use of Lin Fei's methods

Fortunately, the Warriors still have their old roots, that is, their previous excellent record, after all, according to the difference between their win and the ninth place in the West, even if they lose nearly 10 games in a row, they can still guarantee the top eight positions in the West, but obviously, this is absolutely not possible, and they must find a solution (to be continued)
