The Warriors formation change has a significant effect. The second-year center has regained trust. It is correct to hold the 12+5 guard.

It seems that the competition in the Western Conference is not as fierce as predicted before the season. The Warriors are probably a typical example. Before the start of this game, the winning rate was just 50%. But even if the rookies are competing against each other, the Warriors are currently only ranked eighth in the Western Conference. I am afraid it will be difficult to directly enter the playoffs, that is, enter the top six. If they really have to play in the play-offs, the outcome will be difficult to say.

played against the Utah Jazz at home. The latter was back-to-back and suffered a loss in combat effectiveness due to physical exhaustion. The Warriors did not let the opportunity slip away. Curry scored 31 points with a 50% shooting rate. In addition, Butler and Moody also performed well. Of course, in this game, the Warriors' lineup changes were very effective. For example, defensive champion Gary Payton II was the starter and scored 9 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists. It seems that the instruction manual for Gary Payton II may really be in the hands of the Warriors coaching staff. He does not usually score much, but he is very active on the court and can do all the little things.

At the same time, second-year center Quenten Post also regained the trust of the coaching staff. He scored 9 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists in this game, but he did not seem to be that outstanding. But as a center player, he can not only open up space on the court, but also has high-position support capabilities, which allows the team's tactics to have more changes. You must know that some time ago, Post was out of the rotation. Even when he could play, the time was compressed to a very limited extent. The Warriors seemed to prefer a small-ball lineup without a center. But Post is very promising in this battle. He has a plus-minus value of +27, ranking second on the team. This kind of player is indeed easy to be favored by Cole.

Even as a substitute for the Warriors, he also actively strives for opportunities. Hield made 8 of 13 shots and scored 20 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. His ability in the game is indeed stable. Will Richard showed off his strength again. His 9 points and 6 rebounds were not bad, but he led the team in plus-minus of +29, which is naturally a bigger highlight. Substitute center Jackson Davis also scored 5 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks. Indeed, he seems to be at least more useful than veteran Horford in the regular season.

Of course, the most critical point is that the Warriors gradually hold down guard Podemski. This choice is correct. In fact, Podemski averaged 12.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.3 steals per game this season, but no matter how good his numbers are, his teammates around him are uncomfortable. Podemski had less time in this game. Although he only scored 6 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals, the Warriors ushered in a hearty victory. This fully illustrates the truth that if the statistics of role players are too good, not everything is a good thing.
