PREVIEW & TIPS Golden State Warriors VS San Antonio Spurs

The wait is over, and today the play-off begins in the most spectacular sporting competition in the world, the American Basketball League, known by everyone under the acronym NBA. We will try to analyze all the games of this play off, and our first tip is also about the “hottest” match of the 8th, re-editing last year’s Western Conference finals between Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs.

Golden State Warriors News

The game is a bit short after 19:00, at the Oracle Arena, under the best of 7 games. Golden State Warriors is the enormous NBA champion, finalist of the last three seasons and favorite of the year. Although for the first time in the last 4 years Warriors have failed to win the conference, finishing 2 after the Rockets, it is hard to believe that anyone can remove Kerr’s “dream-team” in 7 games.

Seen by many specialists as one of the most prominent teams in the history of American basketball, GSW is based on a top 5 very strong with Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson, or Draymond Green, mature players able to score without 20 points / match and make the difference in heavy moments.

Steve Kerr chose to save his season-end titles, some on the back of some injuries, others on the back of the accumulated fatigue, and that’s why the team’s false impression was created in a somewhat degraded fashion, losing many “light” parties to consistent differences. Warriors play something else in the play off, and I expect the 4-day break to be beneficial to the champions, who always made good games after the break.

The only important issue of the batch is Curry’s absence in this first elimination phase, but his young replacement Quinn Cook came in very well when he was used.

Even though Popovich focuses mainly on the defensive, I think the 200-point limit can easily be overcome in the context of the players coming in and is the first game in a possible series of 7. At the Oracle Arena, the hosts score on average over 113 points / match, and I expect them to close their mouths to the contestants who see a Curry-dependent team. Out of the last 11 direct games, there were fewer points than the proposed limit, but then Warriors rested all the players.

San Antonio Spurs News

On the other hand, San Antonio Spurs qualified for the 21st consecutive play off, setting a hard-to-reach record in the context of equalizing the forces of today. With the same veterans, Pau Gasol, Tony Parker, Patty Mills or Manu Ginobili, Spurs made a rather modest season, finishing in 7th place and having a relegated 14-27 away balance, the worst of all qualified teams. The positive side is that the defensive was also this year at maximum, with only 99.8 points received on average, Spurs being on the 1st place in this chapter, on par with Jazz.

Without Kawhi Leonard, the one around whom Popovich was planning to play the game, LaMarcus Aldridge was by far the best player of the team, registering 23.1 points and 8.1 rebounds. Other major players turned out to be Rudy Gay, Dany Green or Murray, but overall Spurs looks much weaker than the previous seasons.
