2024-02-09 08:30:00 Who is the “King of Critical Moments” in the NBA this season? According to NBA official website data, Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has scored 152 points at critical moments this season, and his efficiency is also very high. There is no doubt that he is the best player during this period. But the paradox is that with Curry’s good performance, the Warriors’ performance at critical moments this season has been unsatisfactory, which has become an important reason why their winning rate before the star game is less than 50%.

According to NBA official figures, the Warriors have had 34 games this season that have been decided by critical moments (officially defined as games with a score difference of less than 5 points in the last 5 minutes of the game), and their record is 16 wins and 18 losses. Not more than 50%. The team averages only 8.8 points and their field goal percentage is 43.9, which is not ideal. This is why they are currently in the quagmire. ▲Stephen Curry has scored 152 points at critical moments this season, shooting 51.6% from the field, 49.1% from three-point range, and averaging 62.3 points per 100 possessions.

He averages 62.3 points per 100 possessions, which is at least the most experienced in the league. No. 1 among players with more than 10 clutch games.Curry’s terrible statistics at critical moments don’t end there. His three-point shooting percentage this season is as high as 49.1%, ranking sixth among players who have taken at least 10 three-pointers at critical moments, but he is also the only one who has taken more than 30 three-pointers. player – in fact, he has taken as many as 53 three-pointers at critical moments this season and hit 26 of them. ▲Stephen Curry is alone, and the Golden State Warriors have lost many games in which he has performed well this season. (Photo/AP/Dazhi Image) It’s just that Curry’s performance failed to win the Warriors’ victory, which shows that the Bay Area did not give him enough help this season. With Klay Thompson regressing and J.Kuminga still lacking experience, Curry can only shoulder the team’s scoring burden alone at critical moments.The Warriors are currentlyCompared with scoring, defense may be a bigger headache for them, because this team’s defensive efficiency is 118.1 this season, ranking 22nd in the league.During the dynasty, the Warriors were not only very efficient on the offensive end, but their excellent defense was the key to their ability to dominate the league. With Draymond Green back, this team needs to improve in this area in the second half of the season. If they can lower the tempo and play high-intensity defense at critical moments, then using Curry’s offensive performance this season, they will have a chance to improve their winning rate and return to the playoffs.
