Poole：今年勇士會把奪冠視為頭號目標

Jordan Poole was asked what his expectations are for himself this season:

“I think everybody in the locker room wants to win a championship first and
 foremost.”

被問到自己對新賽季的期望，Poole表示：“我想今年球隊每個人都會把爭奪總冠軍視為
頭號目標。

以下是記者對勇士的看法 有興趣再看看


We know the extenuating circumstances surrounding why a dynastic team that r
eached five straight NBA Finals and won three of them fell into the lottery.
Kevin Durant left in free agency.Klay Thompson tore his left ACL, and then h
is right Achilles' tendon, respectively costing him the entirety of the 2019
-20 and 2020-21 campaigns.Draymond Green aged north of 30 years old. Their d
epth either retired or was extricated.



When healthy,Stephen Curry remains a paradigm-shifting superstar. He led the
 league in scoring last season on absurd efficiency, carrying an inexperienc
ed roster to the play-in tournament, where even his 76 points over two games
 were not enough to secure a Western Conference playoff seed. The onus on Cu
rry is astronomical, and he is capable of keeping Golden State competitive i
n any game by himself.



Curry, Thompson and Green formed the core of a team that rolled to the 2015
title and won a record 73 regular-season games before blowing a 3-1 lead to
LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2016 Finals. That loss preci
pitated Durant's arrival and a talent pool that was too big to fail for two
straight years. To believe the Warriors are still contenders is to ignore th
at the legs they stood on six years ago are weaker.



Thompson has not played since Game 6 of the 2019 Finals. He suffered two of
the most serious injuries an athlete can face, including one that has preven
ted most everyone not named Durant from fully recovering. At the same time,
he has eclipsed his 30th birthday. Nobody believes those injuries will keep
Thompson from restoring his status as one of the greatest shooters ever to l
ive, but there should be serious skepticism about his ability to explode on
both ends and regain his stature as the team's best perimeter defender.



Two transcendent shooters can lay the foundation of a serious contender, esp
ecially when they are joined by an All-Defensive triple-double threat whose
versatility unlocks the Death Lineup du jour. Except, Green is no longer tha
t guy. Last season marked his slowest average speed since the league started
 tracking that data in 2013. None of this is to say Green is not a useful pl
ayer. He finished third in Defensive Player of the Year voting for the leagu
e's third-ranked unit last season.



The rest is relying on potential. Jordan Poole and Juan Toscano-Anderson hav
e both shown promise in two years in their system. The lot of them have zero
 playoff experience. The Warriors of old were relentless. They hit you in th
e mouth with Green and Bogut protecting the rim, Curry and Thompson barragin
g from deep. A bench full of starting-caliber players kept the party going,
and the Death Lineup finished you off for good.
