Reverse Growth Superstar

The Golden State Warriors ended last season with a wave of 6 wins and 22 losses, resulting in their final score of only 23 wins and 43 losses, ranking third from the bottom in the Western Conference.

In the beginning, the Warriors were definitely eager to make the playoffs. The arrival of Mark Jackson changed the Warriors' style of play. He even asked the management to send Monta Ellis away in exchange for the Australian champion Bogut to fill the ball. The team's defense.

But then, continuous injuries made Mark Jackson decide to give up last season. Therefore, with a good start, the Warriors finally chose to deliberately play bad. Because the Warriors have to get the top 7 picks in order to retain the draft pick, what the Warriors can do is to work together to lose when the playoffs are hopeless.

As a result, the Bay Area fans broke out collectively.

Owner Lacob was booed at the retirement ceremony of Mullin's jersey because the frustration experienced by the fans in the past 20 years was not soothing.

Last season the Warriors had some hope of change, and they turned out to be the most shameless in recent years. Every year, more than half of the teams can make the playoffs, but the Warriors have only done it once in the past 18 years. The fans are naturally very angry.

But this year, when the Warriors have a complete lineup and want to start winning, Stevens believes that they can complete the transformation.

In addition to having excellent young players such as Curry, Thompson and "North Carolina Eagles" Barnes, the Warriors also chose to trust Mark Jackson.

For 20 years, the Warriors have been in chaos. They changed 11 coaches in 20 years, and the team did not have a stable style at all. Although the elder Nelson once led the Warriors to create a black eight miracle, that team is a team with more than enough blood and insufficient stability.

The entire team has only offense and no defense, and offense is extremely dependent on talent. Even if this kind of team completes the black eight miracle, it is destined to be out of date and only short-lived.

Facts have also proved that the Black Eight Warriors is indeed just a flash in the pan.

After Mark Jackson took office, he completely changed the face of this team. Before the unveiling of last season, Mark Jackson instilled defensive concepts into the team and took the initiative to reduce the team's rhythm. Last season, the Warriors' defense has achieved initial results, reaching the league average. The last time the Warriors could achieve this level was in 1998!

Also as the head coach, Stevens can see the changes Mark Jackson wants to make in the Warriors. He is trying to pull the Golden State Warriors out of the shadow of old Nelson.

This season, if Curry and Bogut can stay healthy, then Stevens believes that it would be easy for the Warriors to make the playoffs!

Facing a playoff-level team, Stevens is of course very concerned.

In the first game of the new season, the Warriors defeated the Suns on defense despite Curry's poor condition. The Suns only scored 80 points in the game, which is enough to explain the problem.

In this day and age, limiting opponents to only 80 points is a remarkable achievement. The Golden State Warriors are very different from before. Mark Jackson decided to let everyone see their results this season!

So in the past few days of training, Stevens mostly focused on offensive practice. As long as you can break through the Warriors' defense, winning the game is not a problem.

As for the offense? It depends on whether the offense led by Link can surpass Stephen Curry, who has just returned from injury.

When Link got off the plane, he immediately saw the poster of the Warriors starting five tigers in the new season.

Bogut, David Lee, Barnes, Thompson and Curry looked at this poster, and Link was stunned for a few seconds.

Unconsciously, the Golden State Warriors have developed into what he is familiar with... that omnipotent warrior has taken shape.

Last season, Curry played only 20 games due to injuries and was almost forgotten. But Link knew that it was almost Curry's last trough. After this, Curry will step by step and begin to fulfill his talents.

Stevens has always attached great importance to this game, so the players dare not take it lightly. Although the Warriors were only third from the bottom in the Western Conference last season, Stevens said more than once, "It's extremely stupid to measure opponents only by their performance last season."

But even without Stevens's words, Link will still take this game very seriously. After all, he knew very well that Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson at this time were very difficult to provoke.

"It's the same. Every time the new season starts, we have to play consecutive away games." Randolph complained, while hugging Link's shoulders, pulling him back from his thoughts.

"Is this bad? Let everyone else see how good we are." Link spread his hands. It doesn't matter to him that he plays away first and home first. No way, who makes Memphis a small ball market?

This kind of game at the beginning of the season was naturally played in big cities like Los Angeles and the Bay Area.

"Hey, I also want to feel the enthusiasm of the home fans. By the way, what video did you watch in the car just now? I couldn't understand a word of those two people in the video."

"Hey, that's Australian English, Zach. I suggest you learn a few sentences too, it's interesting."

"Australian English? Just pretend like British English? Forget it, my English was not good since I was a kid, and I often misspelled words. I only know black street slang. And what do you learn that? Want to see a kangaroo in Australia?"

"No, it is always good to learn more, so as not to suffer cultural losses at the critical moment." Link smiled mysteriously.

The Grizzlies players all got on the team bus at this time and rushed to their hotel.

Tomorrow night, this critical battle in Stevens' heart will begin at Oracle Arena.

Stephen Curry is eager for a big outbreak this season, because his injury last year has put him under too much pressure.

At Nike, the intention to renew his contract is still unclear. As for the Warriors, although they renewed their contract in advance with Curry, they signed a four-year $44 million contract. But to be honest, this price is also greatly reduced because of Curry's injury last season.

In contrast, Harden, who was selected the same year as Curry, signed with the Rockets for $80 million in five years. In 2009, the top pick Blake Griffin signed a five-year contract with the Clippers worth 95 million U.S. dollars despite the limited progress in the past few years!

Compared with them, Curry's contract is simply cheap. You know, Curry's data is not worse than them. He has scored 30+10+10 in his rookie season, and the second-year Curry averaged 18.6 points per game~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He has shot 43% from three-pointers for three consecutive seasons. the above. He is known as the best point guard shooter in the league after Steve Nash.

If everything is normal, Curry should be able to lead the team to the playoffs in the third season, should be able to further his personal data, should be able to get a larger contract.

But these were ruined by the fragile ankle.

Now Curry is back, but no longer depressed. The frustrations of the past have passed, and he hopes to change his career from this moment!

In the first game of the new season, Curry messed up. Although the team won the game, he only scored 5 points in the game and made only 1 of 6 3-pointers.

After that game, Curry was questioned. People say that the Warriors chose the wrong cornerstone to build the team, and Stephen Curry is a glass man, not trustworthy.

But Curry didn't care about those voices, and he still wanted to show his performance and let those people shut up.

So today, Curry came to Oracle Arena very early and began to practice his shooting in various positions beyond the three-point line.

The poor performance in the previous game was mainly due to being away from the field for too long and failing to adapt to the intensity. But today, Curry believes he can handle everything.

Indeed, the Memphis Grizzlies are very strong. Indeed, the No. 0 forward who always loves to fight with him is very difficult. But Curry can't manage that much. This game is not only about the team's victory or defeat, but also about the honor of his career!

Is it a waste or a cornerstone? Curry needs to show proof!

At this time, the Oracle Arena was still empty. Therefore, no one saw the continuous white waves under the basket.

Stephen Curry, it feels hot!

This thin No. 30 believes that he can tear that difficult No. 0 into pieces tonight.
