2024-02-24 00:20:18 The Golden State Warriors have won 9 of the last 11 games. After reusing “Congo Beast” Jonathan Kuminga and moving Klay Thomppson to the bench, the team seems to have found the right rotation mode. Slowly step onto the track. According to ESPN reports, Kuminga’s performance broke out after January, which was related to the reconciliation between him and head coach Steve Kerr and his reuse. Kuminga had conflicts with Kerr over playing time this season, but the two sides later had an honest conversation and resolved their issues.

Since January 8, Kuminga’s data has improved significantly. In 18 games, he averaged 20.6 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game, while shooting 56.9% from the field. He started the last 11 games before the All-Star break. ▲Warriors owner Joe Lacob made it clear that he hopes Jonathan Kuminga can become an All-Star player, and he once listened to coach Steve Kerr’s response to Kuminga being iced in the game against the Golden Nuggets.

Kuminga” two-forward lineup in the game so that they can get enough athleticism on the wings, but the cooperation between Kuminga and Andrew Wiggins has never been good. The efficiency value when two people are on the court at the same time is negative. But after a period of running-in, this number has been revised to “-0.5″ and is gradually improving. The two can partner on the court, which also allows the Warriors to make great progress in the rotation arrangement. Kuminga averaged 15.5 points per game this season, second only to Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson on the team. ▲”Congo Beast” Jonathan Kuminga started to get a lot of playing time in early January. He also performed well on both offense and defense. Coach Steve Kerr was happy for him. (Photo/AP/Dazhi Image)Steve Kerr is worthy of being a famous coach and has an in-depth discussion with Kuminga to resolve misunderstandingsAccording to ESPN reporter Baxter Holmes, the source of the previous conflicts within the Warriors was related to Kuminga’s lack of growth opportunities and the extent to which Kerr trusted young players. A Warriors source told Holmes that Kerr won’t hold back on who is allowed to play, but before doing so he wants to make sure they are “ready to play the way we play, that’s the most important thing.” “Players who succeed in the system that Kerr built around Stephen Curry to read and react to the game requires a combination of talent, competitiveness and quick reading of the situation on the court. When the Warriors were at the peak of their dynasty , the team has the capital to bet on suboptimal players because the team can win no matter what.” Holmes wrote in the article. Holmes said that it did take Steve Kerr a lot of time to readjust to the current situation of the team and the fact that he needed to make changes, but now he has accepted it well and there are currently no problems between him and Kuminga. . In fact, Kerr has also used many young players this season. Rookie Brandin Podziemski is one of the Warriors’ seven players averaging at least 25 minutes per game this season. The premise is that they need to adapt to this team’s play style and system.
