The NBA regular season continues. Today the Warriors faced the Mavericks at home. In the end, they defeated the Mavericks 104:100. In this game, the Mavericks specifically guarded Curry, which caused Curry to have a bad game. He scored 13 points on 5 of 18 shots. The Warriors were also very good on the defensive end in this game. Especially their defense at the last critical moment was the key to their victory in this game.
Talking about the Warriors' defense in this game, we have to mention the names of two people, one is Wiggins and the other is Green. Wiggins did a great job in consuming Doncic today. In addition, on the offensive end, he also scored 23 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists. And Green's performance on the defensive end today was particularly outstanding. Especially at the last critical moment, he contributed a key block. You must know that he also contributed a key block in the previous game. In these two games, Green was completely full on the defensive end.
Not only is he fully loaded on the defensive end, Green has also become very proactive on the offensive end. Green's statistics today are very comprehensive. He scored 11 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 1 block. When Curry and Green played pick-and-rolls before, he rarely attacked personally. He usually passed the ball. But in recent games, Green has a very strong desire on the offensive end, constantly attacking the basket, and even wanted to complete a downhill dunk today. From these two games we can see that Green is starting to become more engaged on the court.
After today's game, Paul was also conquered by Green's performance. There was no shortage of praise for Green. Paul admitted that Green is a very rational player. He reads the game like he does on the court and has the passion that he does. Paul admitted that he admires Green's passion very much. It is precisely because of his passion that he can maintain such strong defensive rigidity on the defensive end. I'm afraid the Green during this period is the Green that Paul should really understand.
When Paul did not join the Warriors, he struggled for many years, but without any results. At present, he has finally found the reason why he has not achieved results. That is because in addition to Curry and Thompson, the Warriors also have such an iron-blooded and strong defensive end Green. Warriors fans have always ignored Green's role. In fact, Green's contribution to the Warriors' championship process is huge. Especially on the defensive end, his role is particularly obvious. He is the foundation for the Warriors to establish a five-small system. Because he plays center among the five small lineups. Playing center with such a small stature is enough to show his energy on the defensive end. The Warriors have won so many games in the past few years with five small lineups, so Green really made a big contribution that year.
