Behind the Warriors loss, can Cole understand the decision to "give up"? Post-match analysis has caused doubts
9:03am, 7 May 2025【Basketball】

If you lose a basketball game, you will lose. But behind every loss, there is always something unexplained. To be honest, I shook my head when I saw the Warriors' game. Cole's choice... Alas, it makes people have to think about how a coach should lead the team.

116-131, this score looks OK. But not long after the game started, the Warriors were 31 points behind, which was scary. Cole might have been scared, so he let the game go directly. There are 5 minutes and 50 seconds left in the third quarter. The substitute is desperately chasing points, but the main force is sitting on the bench and drinking water. After the game, Cole explained it, and it sounded like that, but it seemed something was wrong.

Let's talk about tactics. The Rockets shot that day, with a 95% shooting percentage in the first half? This data looks like a typo. Cole said that seeing this data makes me feel like there is no chance. Yes, anyone else might be confused. But just give up like that... I always feel that Cole on the coach's stage is not very similar to the one he used to be.

Curry is still persisting. Although he doesn't play for a long time, he will be very arrogant every time he makes a move. But, alas, he has no choice but to do this time. The substitute made some marks, but it was a bit of a bad idea. To put it bluntly, the main force is not there, and no matter how much the substitute plays, he will be unsure.

I know a Warriors fan and I'm so angry. I spent a lot of money to buy tickets, but I saw such a competition. He said to me, "Did you think Cole is crazy? Isn't this fooling people?" I don't know how to answer.

Look back. The Warriors have to figure out how to play this defense. Cole...he needs to think about it. It would be fine if you say that the opponent's shooting is accurate, but the defensive end does not even have basic strength, which is unreasonable. If I want to say, the main players also need to reflect. If the coach beats this way, it is not appropriate for the coach to take the blame.
But then again, Cole is indeed a little strange. The team is just behind, what's the matter? You have to find ways to boost your morale during training. If you give up every time you encounter difficulties, how can you fight in the future? How far can the Warriors go? To be honest, I can't say it. If Cole could learn something from this defeat, there might be a turning point. But if you continue to be so indecisive...tsk, that would be troublesome.
After watching this game, I always feel that something is missing. Maybe it’s the spirit of never giving up until the last moment? Or maybe... Forget it, everyone should have their own answer in their hearts.
The Warriors are indeed different from before. Sometimes watching them play basketball is like watching a movie that has not been finished. I always feel that the plot should go wherever it is, but I just go another way. Maybe that's the charm of basketball - you can never guess what will happen in the next second.
