3 losses in the last 4 games! The Warriors’ dream of winning the championship is shattered again? At least 2 of the 3 signings that were considered huge profits have lost money

On November 12, in a game that just ended, the Warriors were defeated by the Thunder 102-126. This was the end of the Thunder. If both sides had not replaced substitutes in the fourth quarter, the Warriors might have lost even worse. In this game, they fell behind by 36 points at most. Alexander scored 28 points, 5 rebounds and 11 assists. Chet scored 23 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists on 9-of-9 shooting. Mitchell scored 17 points and 3 rebounds.

Looking at the Warriors, Curry made 4 of 13 shots from the field, 1 of 5 three-pointers, and scored 11 points, 1 rebound, 0 assists, and 5 fouls. Curry has 0 assists in a single game 8 times in his career, 2 times last season. This happened once after only 8 games of the season. Although many Warriors fans don't want to admit it, the reality is that Curry does not have the ability at his peak. He also showed his age. Facing Carson Wallace's defense in this campaign, he was also somewhat powerless.

Butler also did not perform well in this game. He scored 12 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals on 2 of 3 shots. Although he is still very strong in drawing fouls, his ability to attack and cruise is far inferior to that of the Heat. He is also old. During Curry's absence, he was expected to perform brilliantly and lead the team forward. However, in the few games Curry was absent, Butler's best game was only 21 points. Perhaps it was not a wise choice for him to renew his contract for 110 million for two years.

The team's three young talents also failed to meet expectations in the face of the Thunder's suffocating defense. Kuminga scored 13 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists on 6-of-9 shooting, and made 5 turnovers. The defensive end was also blown away by Chet. Bojem scored 10 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist on 3-of-6 shooting, with a plus-minus value of -21. Moody scored 10 points on 3-of-6 shooting, with a plus-minus value of -25. During the rotation, they were defeated by the Thunder substitutes when leading the team. Although the two performed well this season, there was still a big gap when facing the defending champion's substitutes.

To be honest, the current Warriors are no different from the Warriors last season. They can win some weak teams, but when they face the real strong teams, they will be exposed. It is even said that the Warriors this season may not be as good as last season, because Curry and Butler were in better shape last season.

They have lost 3 of the past 4 games, and the team does not look competitive at all. Some fans may say here: Didn't they introduce Horford, Melton and Seth Curry in the offseason? They were indeed brought in, but looking at it now, at least two of the signings were losses. Let’s talk about Horford first. This is the Warriors’ most important signing this summer. They hope that Horford can play his role as a snake oil and support the team’s inside line. The Warriors’ biggest problem last season was their weakness inside line.

In order to sign him, the Warriors even gave him a two-year, 11.65 million contract. Looking at Horford's positioning alone, the signing was indeed very profitable, but Horford is no longer the ball-blind evaluator he used to be. Cole discovered his age and made him a substitute after joining the team. In addition, Horford's attendance rate cannot be guaranteed. He has played a total of 7 games since the start of the season. Although he can occasionally contribute to help the team, his attendance rate and overall performance are not satisfactory.

Horford averaged 5.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.9 blocks per game this season, shooting only 34.1% from the field, 30% from three-point range, and a net efficiency of -8.8. The team still lost 8.8 points in 100 rounds. Because of his poor performance, Cole gave Post the starting position. Horford still has one year of contract, and it is also a player option. The Warriors will probably have to provide him with old age support. He is 39 years old. Now the league is playing fast and it is already a world dominated by young people. As a result, the Warriors are still hoarding veterans.

The team acquired Melton with a one-year minimum salary. While playing for the Warriors last season, Melton showed good adaptability. He played the role of Holiday, with the ability to pass, defend and have space. When he played, In the game, the team had a total of 4 wins and 2 losses, but he suffered a serious injury. Melton has not returned since the start of the game. Previous reports were that Melton may undergo an injury assessment around the 20th. The time for his return is far away. The key is whether he will still be at his peak after his comeback.

I think the signing of Seth Curry should be profitable, because Dunleavy has caught the league's salary loophole, and the team will be able to sign Seth Curry in the near future. The two parties will reach a contract of about 2 million. His shooting can help the team, but Seth is not young anymore, he is also 35 years old, and it is hard to say how much gas is left in the tank. The Clippers tried a veteran lineup this season, but they collapsed. Looking at it now, even if the Warriors don't collapse, they won't be able to win the championship if they make it to the playoffs. The strength gap with the championship teams is too big.
