As the Warriors fell behind the Timberwolves 1-3, they completely saw the true faces of these 5 people. It was a pity for two people, and 3 people were fishing

The Warriors lost their victory at home again. The series score reached 1:3 and the Warriors had already come to the edge of the cliff. There was no room for mistakes in the next series. Although there was still a chance of advancing, the Warriors' hope was very slim from their recent three-game losing streak. In the series against the Timberwolves, they also fully saw the true faces of these five players -
1, Curry, the only core of the Warriors. Since Curry was absent, the Warriors have struggled on the offensive end. As Kerr said in the interview, the team lacks offensive space without Curry, and everyone's shooting is difficult. Cole said no problem. When Curry was on the court, attracting opponents to double-team created too many opportunities for his teammates. The ball rotated very smoothly and could always pass open opportunities. After Curry was injured, the Warriors' offense began to become difficult, and there was no fluency at all. Curry's injury was really a pity for the Warriors.
2, Kumingga, since Curry was injured, the only highlight of the team is Kumingga. He did not disappoint Kerr's expectations for him. He performed in three consecutive games. Kumingga's performance in this round of series proves that it is wrong to Cole's strategy to give up his usage in the late regular season and the first round of the series. After the end of this season, Kumingga's contract is about to expire, and leaving the Warriors may be a foregone conclusion. It is a pity that Kole failed to inspire the strongest Kumingga.
3, Butler, in the crucial G4, Butler only made 9 moves, it is really hard to understand. Facing the Timberwolves' defense, Butler's mode completely disappeared in the playoffs, especially without Curry sharing the offensive pressure, Butler failed to lead the team to win. Judging from this round of series, the Warriors need to reevaluate Butler who signed with high salaries this season. It is obvious that he does not have the strength to be the first core of the Warriors.
4, Green, apart from his fierce foul action, Green did not help the Warriors that much. After hitting 4 three-pointers in the first game of the series, with Curry's injury, Green made 10 of 28 shots in the last three games, including 3 of 13 three-pointers. Without Curry on the court, it is obvious that Green did not have the desire to win. Although he was full of confidence in winning the G5 after the game, Green's attitude in the game has already said everything.
5, Pojsky, in this round of series, Pojsky made 9 of 40 shots, with a shooting percentage of only 22.5%, which is also the player with the lowest shooting percentage in more than 35 shots in the past decade. Boger is also a player that Cole trusts very much, but obviously he is not ready for the big playoffs, especially in the second round, with playing time in the last three games for about 35 minutes, but his score is less than ten. Boger is the most serious player in the lineup.
