Warriors 123-127 Trail Blazers welcome 4 bad news!

NBA Cup, the Warriors lost to the Trail Blazers 123-127. The Warriors were too careless in this game. After leading at halftime, they slacked off in the second half, which ultimately caused them to be overtaken by the Trail Blazers and lose. The Warriors encountered four pieces of bad news after the game.

One is the issue of rebounding. The gap is still too big. In particular, they lost 12 rebounds in the offensive court and 20 rebounds in the entire game. This was because the lineup was too short. Once the opponent is given too many second attack opportunities, there will be a lot of difference in the score here. There is no way, the Warriors don't want to increase the thickness of the lineup, then this shortcoming will continue to exist, which can no longer be changed.

Butler's efficiency today is still very poor. As long as he encounters a taller striker to defend him, he will definitely collapse. He only made 5 of 15 in the whole game. This kind of shooting rate is enough to irritate the eyes. Once Butler can't open up in singles and he doesn't have the three-point ability, his scoring will be completely restricted, which is very uncomfortable. Even if Butler's performance in other aspects is acceptable, his value is still too low.

Moody's performance is not good either. He scored 10 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block on 3-of-6 shooting. Judging from the statistics, he was indeed okay. Unfortunately, he was not aggressive at all on the defensive end in this game. Not only was he slow, but he was also passed by his opponents at will. The final result was that Moody became a defensive vulnerability in this game. Coupled with the protection of rebounds, his ups and downs on the offensive end are also very large.

Richard's performance is getting worse and worse. He originally played well as a substitute, but now that he has entered the starting lineup, he can no longer show the same surprise as before. There is no way, he is just a role player. Once he is targeted by his opponent, he will definitely do this. Then he should try his best to play as a substitute in the future. Unfortunately, his role is only a fake starter, which makes his situation a bit difficult.
