The powerful pitchers still maintain their standards, but the overall Warriors team is very worried?

In a previous NBA Western Conference semi-finals, the Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Golden State Warriors who returned to their home court 102-97. After this game, the Timberwolves, who won two consecutive victories in the series, widened the total score of the series to 2-1. Judging from the situation in these two games, the Timberwolves reversed the situation and they also had a certain advantage in this round of the series.

In this game, the Warriors' starting outside pitcher Buddy Hield actually performed well. Hilder played 32 minutes and 20 seconds in the game, made 5 of 11 shots and 4 of 8 from outside the three-point line, and scored 14 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks, with a plus-minus value of -5. Hilder also showed good outside shooting ability on the offensive end, and he also scored a lot of points, which provided a lot of support to the team on the offensive end. Hilder also assumed certain responsibilities in passing and organizing offense, and he was able to maintain sufficient competitiveness on the defensive end. He also proved that he was an all-round player with both offense and defense. Hilde's effect on the court is obvious to all, and he also played his own role. However, the team's overall competitiveness is still not as good as that of the opponent, and his efforts have not been effective.

In the NBA regular season this season, Hilder maintained full attendance in 82 games. During his 22.7 minutes of playing time, Hilder averaged 11.1 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.8 steals, and 0.3 blocks. He also had 1.1 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. His shooting percentage was 41.7%, three-point shooting percentage was 37%, and free throw shooting percentage was 82.8%. In the playoffs, Hilder averaged 26.3 minutes in the first 10 games, with averaging 12.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.5 blocks, 0.5 turnovers and 1.6 fouls, shooting percentage of 43.8%, three-point shooting percentage of 46.3%, and free throw shooting percentage of 100%.

Hilder's performance in the regular season was not particularly outstanding, and his decline in form in the second half of the season was even more disappointing. However, in the playoffs, as the schedule deepened, Hilder's performance became better and better. He turned the tide in the series G7 to help the team advance to the second round, and he has been able to maintain a stable level so far in the second round of the series. But Hilder is not the core figure of the team, and he cannot help the team turn around the situation with his own personal abilities in every game. Hilder's performance is excellent enough, but if the Warriors want to advance in this series, they have to think of some other solutions. This situation is already very unfavorable for them.
