Averaged 12 points per game and wanted to replace Curry! Is he the one dissatisfied with Butler pursuing his dream? But Cole let Kuminga take the blame

On November 13, after the start of the new season, civil strife broke out in many Western Conference teams. The Grizzlies had conflicts between Morant and their coach. The Grizzlies intended to trade away Morant. The Mavericks laid off general manager Harrison, and the team also plans to trade Big Eyebrow. The Kings put Savoy, LaVine and DeRozan on the shelf, and the team wants to rebuild. The Pelicans are considering laying off coach Willie Green. It has to be said that the pressure of competition in the West is too great for many teams to remain patient.

Recently, there seems to be news of an internal split on the Warriors side. After yesterday's disastrous defeat to the Thunder, Chai Meng Green and Butler broke the defense. Zhui Meng said: I think every player in this league will have his own personal goals, but you must pursue personal goals within the framework of the team. If it doesn't work, then give up personal goals, otherwise selfishness will make you the reason for others to drive you away. Chasing Dreams is dissatisfied that some players play too selfishly and don't care about the team.

Butler said: Everyone must be honest with themselves. Most of what I said is reflected in the defensive end. If you can't prevent the opponent from scoring, then you are not going all out. We have to find a balance between maintaining aggressiveness and ensuring that everyone gets a shot. I pay great attention to ensuring that my teammates get open opportunities and ensure that they build confidence early. It can be seen that he has also spoken out about some players not caring about the team.

Although neither of them directly named who they are, friends who often watch Warriors games know that the two people who play the Warriors least as a team are Bojem and Kuminga. When Butler was interviewed, he also named Kuminga, believing that Kuminga should reduce his mistakes, take open three-point opportunities decisively, and not give up three-pointers to attack the inside. Butler's words did not name Kuminga as the cancer in the team who doesn't care about the team.

Kuminga has undergone a lot of changes this season. Although his performance has not been good during Curry's absence recently, when playing with Curry, his performance can be regarded as a qualified starter, and his passing ability has also improved. This season, Kuminga averaged 15 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game, shooting 48% from the field, 33% from three-point range, and averaging 1 three-pointer per game. Although the three-point shooting efficiency is not good, as the team's third scorer, this performance is acceptable.

I think Dream Chaser and Butler may be talking about Bojem. Of course, this is just my guess. Everyone knows that Bojem is a player who often does not give open opportunities to his teammates. He likes to stick to the ball when holding the ball on the offensive end. If his scoring ability is not good, he also likes to finish in singles. Many Warriors fans are very dissatisfied with him and even suggested that Cole DNP him. Bojem's style of play does seem to be incompatible with the Warriors' system.

Bojie averaged 12 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.3 steals per game this season, shooting 45% from the field and 36% from three-point range. Although his efficiency is average and the statistics are not good, he is very confident. In a previous interview, he said: His career goal is to become as great a player as Curry, and he wants to surpass Curry. And he also expressed his desire to wait until Curry and Dream Chasing grow old to replace them as the new leader of the Warriors.

It is good for players to have confidence, but blind confidence can easily be ridiculed. According to ESPN reporter Anthony, when Warriors guard Podemski said that he wanted to surpass Curry, many players in the team rolled their eyes. At the same time, some people in the team continued to tease him about this matter. Indeed, I recognize Bojie's hard work on the court, but there is no chance of surpassing Curry in terms of his talent. Although hard work will make you better, the absolute talent gap cannot be made up by hard work. This is the cruel reality of the NBA.

If Butler and Dream Chasing were talking about Podger, would Cole reduce his use? Absolutely not. Everyone knows that in Cole's view, Bojem is one of his most trusted players. Sometimes his playing time is higher than that of Curry and Butler. A proper prince in Cole's eyes. However, after the team's disastrous defeat to the Thunder, Kuminga took the blame. This is not surprising. Almost every time there is turmoil in the team, it is Kuminga who is the first one Cole takes action. He was sent to the bench today against the Spurs.

In an interview today, Cole said that the Warriors' rotation needs major adjustments and that Kuminga may have a different role. The reason he gave is: Obviously, our recent performance has been a bit jerky and we have made some challenges during the season. This has never been anyone's fault. To be honest, the team's recent poor record is mostly caused by Curry's absence. When the team had 5 wins and 1 loss at the beginning of the season, Kuminga played a big role in the starting lineup. I don't think it is appropriate to rush to deny him now.

The biggest problem for the Warriors now is that they are aging seriously, and the young players have not given enough support to the veterans, so there are cracks within the team. I hope they can make up for it in time. Having said that, what do you want to say about the current Warriors? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
