The Warriors have 3 good luck and 2 bad luck! The second round of the Timberwolves, let’s hear what the experts say, Yang Yi and Aopang have the same views

Another fierce battle, the Warriors defeated the Rockets away, eliminated the Rockets 4-3 in a big score to advance to the second round, the Warriors were three happy times - the first happy time, the Warriors completed the second round as the seventh in the Western Conference, for the first time since the playoffs, after defeating the Rockets, the team's morale increased greatly and the team's cohesion further improved.

The second joy, it turns out that Hilde is the invisible killer, and there is no parallel product for the three-point contest champion. Hilde proved with a 33-pointer that he was not a weak team test player. When Curry encountered double-teaming, he became the team's outside pillar. You should know that he did not score in G6. If Hilde regains confidence in the second round, he can become the weakened version of Clay around Curry, forcing his opponent not to double-team. The third joy is the stability of the team's core. Facing the Rockets League's second defense, Curry and Butler can still perform 20+ per game, which is why they are stronger than the more unstable Rockets, which may be the experience of the veteran.

However, the Warriors still have two concerns. First, the Warriors did not get any advantage after breaking through the first round. On May 7, the Warriors, who had just completed the Black Seven, will go to the away game to face the Timberwolves, who were waiting for the rest. The Timberwolves rested for 5 days, and the Warriors only had one day off. In such a fierce playoffs, physical fitness is the biggest enemy that the 35-year-old Chasing Dream, 35-year-old Butler, and 37-year-old Curry have to face.

Second, the team's injury risks. Butler only rested after being injured in G2, and he must still fight with injuries now, and Curry's finger injury has not healed, plus Payton, who was sick yesterday and did not hit. The schedule is dense and the injury may worsen at any time. The Warriors' rotation is originally based on Curry and Butler's rotation. In the next round, the opponent is not good at fighting the Timberwolves, but at least it is cleaner than the Rockets, which is gratifying.

There is a data showing that the Warriors defeated the Rockets in the first four times, and eventually advanced to the finals and won two championships, namely in 2015 and 2018. Let’s first take a look at how famous speakers look at the Battle of Wolfs. Which team has more advantages, both Timberwolves or Warriors?

Yang Yi expressed his opinion on the "Back with the Ball", "I am optimistic about the Timberwolves' 4-2 victory in this series. The reason is that the Timberwolves' game will continue. It is a question whether the Warriors can match it." In this series against the Rockets, Curry still averaged 24 points, 5.9 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game under 2-3 defense, and his three-point shooting percentage is still 38.7%. It can be seen that Curry has experienced such a fierce 7-game fatigue, so whether he can deal with the Timberwolves' biting defense next is another challenge for the Warriors and Curry.

O'Neal said in the show, "Curry is in a hot state, and the Timberwolves needs to focus more energy on defending Curry. Divinchenzo and Walker will take on this important task, but the Timberwolves have limited hands, and chasing Curry also consumes a lot of physical fitness, so I am optimistic about the Warriors' advancement." Indeed, compared with the Rockets, the Timberwolves' individual defense ability is much inferior, so when facing the Warriors, the Timberwolves' defense will become the dominant factor in the game.

famous mouth Barkley believes, "I am firmly optimistic about the Timberwolves. Their execution is very good now. Huazi is unstoppable. After eliminating the Lakers, their morale has increased greatly." The key point of this round of series is that when Gobert is on the court, the Warriors will definitely pick-and-roll, just like when the Lakers and the Timberwolves face each other, Doncic frequently named Gobert. At that time, the Timberwolves will still adopt a double-team strategy. If the Timberwolves want to win, they must use Gobert less.

The author believes that the Warriors still have the advantage in front of the Timberwolves, and the reasons are as follows:

The first reason is that the Warriors have diverse offensive methods and Cole's experience is experienced. Needless to say, the Warriors' offensive system is not much experienced as the champion coach. On the other hand, Coach Finch of the Timberwolves has only been exposed in the regular season. It is necessary to admit that the playoffs have improved, but in general, the Warriors are still a little stronger.

The second reason is that the Warriors dominate the quality of the stars. Although Huazi and Randall are not afraid of tigers and their physical fitness is explosive, the Warriors' stars are more calm and can always find ways to deal with you. Huazi made 0 of 11 three-pointers in my mind, which means that the Lakers were playing against the Lakers. If it were the Warriors, they would definitely be able to punish the Timberwolves quickly. Therefore, I believe that the Warriors can find the Timberwolves' weaknesses and limit Huazi and Randall's performance.

The third reason is that the Warriors can limit the Timberwolves. Similar to the Rockets, the Timberwolves are Rockets with strong offensive points and weak defensive points. They are more balanced. Since March, the Timberwolves have shown amazing competitiveness, but the Timberwolves are prone to fall into offensive vicious circles. For example, G2 lost to the Lakers, G5's three-pointers were once again inaccurate, and the Warriors' overall defense can face the Timberwolves well. This is one of the reasons why the Warriors can achieve a 3-1 confrontation record in the regular season.
