13 points, 6 assists and 5 turnovers! Kuminga overcorrected, Kerr supported Sister Bo, and the Warriors targeted Yang Hansen

The NBA preseason continues, with the Golden State Warriors going away to challenge the Los Angeles Lakers. In this game, the four superstars Curry, Butler, Doncic, and James are exempt from the game. There is no tiger in the formation, and the little devil is in charge. The Lakers took advantage of the momentum at home to flourish inside and outside the first half and established a huge 21-point lead in the first half. As Reeves retired from injury in the third quarter, Sister Bo stepped forward and led Yong Sanfeng to chase the point difference to single digits. In the final decisive battle, both sides focused on training the players at the end of the bench. The Lakers once again widened the point difference to double digits, and the Warriors had no choice but to admit defeat. In the end, the Warriors lost to the Lakers 116-126.

The Warriors challenged the Lakers with a small lineup, and were completely at a disadvantage inside. They lost 6 rebounds 32-38 and 2 offensive rebounds 10-12. At the same time, without Curry, the Warriors seemed to have lost their three-point skill package. The team made only 14 of 43 shots from beyond the three-point line, and the three-point field goal percentage was only 32.6%. On the other hand, the Lakers, with help from the three-point line, hit 12 three-pointers in only 27 attempts, and the three-point field goal percentage reached 44.4%. The only bright spot of the Warriors is that they rely on their small speed to find vitality in fast breaks and counterattacks. Throughout the game, the Warriors scored 21-9 on fast breaks to crush the Lakers, and used mistakes to score 24-21 to suppress the Lakers.

With neither Curry nor Butler playing, Kuminga finally entered the coveted starting lineup. This was originally Kuminga's opportunity to prove himself, but his performance was unsatisfactory. In this campaign, Kuminga started for 22 minutes, making 5 of 8 shots (1 of 3 three-pointers), 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 13 points, 6 assists, 1 steal, and 5 turnovers. The field plus-minus value was -10, the lowest among the starters! Kuminga does have good athletic ability, and Kuminga can also make the scene exciting, but his influence on the trend of the game is better than nothing, or even negative. More importantly, Kuminga overcorrected a bit. In order to integrate into the team, his willingness to pass the ball was too obvious, which resulted in a large number of mistakes. It was really better to hold the ball and solve it alone.

Kuminga failed to seize the great opportunity, but Sister Bo firmly grasped it in her hands. Sister Bo played 25 minutes, made 10 of 16 shots (3 of 7 three-pointers), scored 23 points, 5 rebounds, and 8 assists, with a plus-minus value of +6. Especially when trailing by 17 points at halftime, Sister Bo stepped up in the third quarter and scored 14 points, 1 rebound, 3 assists, 1 steal, and 2 three-pointers in a single quarter. She seemed to be possessed by Curry, leading the team to a crazy momentum. After the game, Sister Bo made her words clear. He said bluntly: As a point guard, I need to ensure a balanced distribution of the ball and maintain my own rhythm and aggression. Warriors coach Cole supported Bo, saying: Bo knows that when Curry Butler is away, he needs to show more aggression. Regardless of whether Bo will eventually enter the starting lineup, he will be an important part of our team.

The Warriors achieved a record of 2 wins and 1 loss in the preseason. Next, they will go to Portland to challenge the Trail Blazers. According to ESPN Warriors reporter Anthony Slater, Cuming, Butler and Horford will all return against the Trail Blazers, while Dream Green will take a rest in this game. The Warriors and Trail Blazers met once in the preseason. The Warriors narrowly defeated the Trail Blazers by 6 points. Chinese star Yang Hansen had a sluggish debut, scoring 4 points, 4 rebounds, 4 turnovers and 6 fouls. The Warriors' pass-and-cut system and small-speed play style made it difficult for Yang Hansen. They made Curry, Butler, and Horford make a strong comeback when they played against the Trail Blazers, obviously to continue to target Yang Hansen and welcome him to the NBA. However, Yang Hansen has already played a declarative game in the second preseason game against the Kings. According to Yang Hansen's learning ability, I believe he will be more prepared when he meets the Warriors again. I hope he can continue to be himself and create surprises. Fans and friends, what do you think of this? Come and leave me a comment to discuss.
