“Curry Guy” played once morest the Celtics last Thursday (17th) and was pressed on his leg by Marcus Smart during a fight for the ball. week. The foot injury of the “three-point king” has attracted much attention. He talked regarding the injury for the first time a few days ago, emphasizing that he will maintain patience: “Of course it will be very painful at first, but the situation is progressing day by day. The current injury assessment We can only know how effective the treatment is. I will try to be patient, and I am confident that the injury will continue to improve.” Although “Curry Guy” is expected to return before the playoffs, the Warriors “Big Three” have suffered injuries in recent years, and this season is always “one-of-a-kind”. One in and out”, it is always difficult to stabilize the match, and I am afraid that it will greatly affect the team’s combat power.
Looking at the data of the past three seasons, when Curie was out due to injury, the Warriors had a record of 18 wins and 57 losses, and the winning rate was only 24%, which was not as good as the Rockets (24.6%), which are currently ranked at the bottom of the league. The record in the past three seasons is 83 wins and 49 losses, the winning rate is as high as 62.9%, and the offensive efficiency is 114.1, but if he is not present, it will drop to 103.7 immediately. Therefore, “Curry Guy” is absolutely crucial to the Warriors.
Another factor that directly affects the competitiveness of the Warriors in the playoffs is the running-in of the “Big Three”. Klay Thompson finally returned following a lapse of 941 days. Unexpectedly, it was Draymond Green’s turn to be injured and missed two months. Green returned, and then Stephen Curie retired from injury. A star is like being “cursed”.
According to U.S. media statistics, since Cary Tomson was injured in the championship game in 2019, the Warriors’ “Big Three” have been on the court together for a total of only 11 minutes. ”, whether it can be adjusted as soon as possible during the playoffs is also the biggest opening key.
