In the absence of Curry, the remnant Warriors recognized three facts in the first battle! The statistics of 3-for-12 and 6-for-19 don’t lie.

Curry, Butler, Dream Chasing and other starters were all absent, and the Warriors lost to the Heat. Recognize 3 facts! The numbers of 3-for-12 and 6-for-19 don't lie.

The remnant Warriors lost 2 consecutive games

In the absence of Curry, Butler, Dream Chaser, Kuminga, and Horford, the remnant Warriors faced off against the Heat. In the end, the Warriors unfortunately lost to the Heat 96-110 and suffered a 2-game losing streak.

The Warriors should recognize three facts in this defeat. 3 of 12 and 6 of 19 were embarrassing. The data does not lie.

Fact 1: Young players cannot bear the production

In the absence of all the veteran core members, a group of young players had the best opportunity to prove themselves. As a result, they proved that their abilities were indeed limited and they were unable to bear the production.

Among them, Moody, who performed well at the beginning of the season, made only 3 of 12 shots in this game, 1 of 6 three-pointers, and only scored 9 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal and 1 shot.

After scoring 8 three-pointers against the underdog Pelicans and scoring a career-high 32 points, Moody was unable to score in double figures in the past two games and continued to fall into a slump.

This is also Moody's consistent performance so far in his career. He has always been positioned as a 3D role player squatting in the corner, unable to play a larger role.

Due to the lack of reliable ball-holding ability, Moody can only play the role of a finishing point on the offensive end and cannot carry out offensive development, which also makes his upper limit visible to the naked eye.

Podje and Moody are in sharp contrast. Moody lacks the courage and ability to actively develop offense, while Podemski is overconfident and comprehensive, which makes him even more disappointing. In Cole's system, Podje has always been more reused than Moody, and there is great momentum to cultivate him as Curry's successor.

Bojie has indeed shown comprehensive abilities in the past two seasons, but the problem is that Bojie is comprehensive enough, but he is loose at everything and lacks top technical ability.

In this game, he scored 20 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists, which seemed to be a good output. In fact, he made 6 of 19 shots with a terrible efficiency. He also made 3 turnovers, with a plus-minus value of -13.

As for the other young people, TJD entered the starting lineup and was already the best player with 8 points and 12 rebounds on 2 of 3 starts. Santos was 1 of 7 and Richard was 0 of 3, with a plus-minus of -25, which ranked last in the game.

Post scored 19+6 on 8 of 13 looks good, but he made 5 mistakes. A wave of consecutive mistakes at critical moments directly killed the suspense of the game.

Even though a group of young players have worked hard enough and fought back and forth with the Heat in the first three quarters, it can be seen from this game and previous strong dialogue games that the Warriors' young players are embarrassed and useless, and it is difficult for any player to consistently deliver performances that are enough to turn the situation around.

Fact 2: The Warriors need to trade

In addition to a group of young players, Hield, who should have seized the opportunity to rebound strongly in this game, still performed poorly.

He made 7 of 20 shots from the field and 4 of 15 three-pointers. He scored 18 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals. He also made 4 turnovers and 4 fouls. The decline in just one off-season was astonishing.

The scoring average has dropped to 7.3 points per game so far this season, and the three-point shooting percentage is only 31%. Hield's performance is also the epitome of the Warriors' blue-collar players. If a suitable opportunity arises, the Warriors urgently need to adjust the staffing around Curry before the trade deadline.

Fact 3: The schedule is too dense

After this game, the Warriors have played 17 games, ranking first in the number of games played in the NBA so far in the new season.

The Warriors' schedule since the beginning of the season has been nothing short of devilish. Not only do they have to play a lot of games, often facing back-to-back or even three games in four days, but they also frequently fly to away games. In just one month since the beginning of the season, the Warriors have played 12 away games and have flown nearly 11,000 miles in total.

This is too much pressure for the aging core Warriors. Currently, the team has no injuries, and the winning rate remains above 50%, which is a very good performance. I believe that with the improvement of the subsequent schedule, the return of players such as Melton and Curry, and the adjustment of the trade deadline, the Warriors still have hope to launch an impact on the championship this season.
