[NOWnews Today’s News] The NBA Warriors lost to the Spurs by double digits in the previous game.

The two teams met again this morning (12th), with the home and guest exchanges, and Warriors head coach Stephen Curry will definitely not play.

As long as Curry is absent this season, the Warriors’ record It was a disastrous 0 wins and 4 losses, but Taiwan Lottery is still optimistic that the Warriors can succeed in revenge. They opened a handicap of 5.5 points for the Warriors. The no-handicap odds are only 1.36, which is far lower than the 2.40 of the landlord Spurs.

The Warriors performed well in February, with 11 wins the most in the league.

Their winning rate in February was second only to the Eastern Conference leader Celtics. At the same time, the Warriors’ team offensive efficiency ranked seventh in the league, and their team defensive efficiency ranked highest. 5th in the league.

In addition, during this period, the Warriors were also able to achieve excellent results on the road.

In February, the away record was 8 wins and 1 loss, which was quite impressive. 

However, after Curry was injured, everything became very dangerous.

Klay Thompson scored 27 points in the previous game, but the Spurs still lost to the Spurs by double digits.

Analyst: The Spurs’ defensive efficiency has increased significantly since the No. 1 draft pick returns to the team

According to the analysis of “Vegas Taiwanese”, an analyst of the Sports Lottery Development Association of the Republic of China, “The Spurs’ rookie No. 1 pick Wembanyama will return to the team to start in this game.

The Spurs’ Wembanyama’s defensive efficiency value is a miserable 124.2. On the contrary, Wembanyama’s defensive efficiency is as high as 114 when sitting on the bench.

The difference is as high as 10.2 points.”

In addition, “Vegas Taiwanese” also mentioned that Spurs shooting guard Vassell will also return to the team.

He is one of the underestimated strengths.

His three-point shooting percentage is 37.7%, which is the first in the team, and his field goal rate is even higher in the world.

The team’s first 6.6 times. In addition, Vassell’s defensive efficiency at home was 114, which was more than 5 points better than Branham, who started in the previous game.

With Paul and without Curry, the Warriors’ offensive efficiency plummets

“Vegas Taiwanese” further analyzed that without Curry, the forward players that have the greatest impact on the Warriors are Kuminga and Wiggins.

They cannot find space to cut in and get easy scoring opportunities.

This is why coach Kerr moved Chris Paul to the starting lineup. 

But unfortunately, when the Warriors have Paul and no Curry on the court this season, their offensive efficiency is only 112.8. 

Belonging to the second half of the league, based on the above situation, the Warriors will have scoring problems.

Therefore, I am optimistic that the Spurs can pass the set smoothly. In addition, the over/under score is 115.5 points, and the small score also has an advantage.

However, according to statistics from “King Sports Events inplayZ”, as many as 86% of fans are still optimistic that the Warriors will win, and generally they are not optimistic about the Spurs.
