Warriors' Playoff story indicates that they can survive

Steph Curry is traveling with the Timberwolves for at least the next three games of the Warriors' series after he has loaded his left armpit deer during the first game in Minneapolis.

It is not the first time that the warriors missed him in the post -season, and if you look at their story without him, their victory on Tuesday evening, after being out, may not be so surprising.

The Golden State is 9: 3 of all time in the playoffs without Curry, although it is worth mentioning that its two previous playoff injuries occurred as the outstanding team of the NBA during the dynastic run of the Warriors. They were number 1 of the West in 2016, which held the best regular season of all time and number 2 in 2018 as defending champion after adding Kevin Durant.

This time you are a No. 7 seed, which after the acquisition of Jimmy Butler over the trade from Miami.

Coach Steve Kerr admitted that the warriors had an all-time squad in these cases.

“If you can bring Shaun Livingston and Andre Iguodala into play, you are in a pretty good shape,” he said.

“But there is a lesson: You have to understand what it takes to win a game without your best player … … it's about the intensity, the heart, the fight. If you do it, give yourself a chance and only find ways to score.”

Here is a look at how the Warriors beat the curry that had been beaten twice: Playoff action:

2016 ankle and knee injuries

Curry and the defending champions had everything in the playoffs. In the last two games of the regular season, Curry scored 83 points, including 47 against Memphis, when Golden State broke the 1996 NBA record with his 73rd victory on the last day of the regular season.

But Curry was injured at the beginning of the first round of the first round of the first round against the Houston Rockets on the ankle and watched the bank when the teams were divided into the next two games. Curry returned for game 4, but slipped during the game and fell during the game and suffered a sprain of MCL in class 1 in his right knee. Curry's Splash brother Klay Thompson helped to lead Warriors to one -sided victories to close the series in five games.

Thompson and Draymond Green drove the Curry-Weniger warriors to a 2-1 series in their second round against Portland. Curry was on the bench at the beginning of game 4, but returned to the square after the Blazers game 4 opened with a 16-2 run. The MVP scored 40 points, including 17 of the 21 points of the Warriors in overtime with a victory of 135-125. After a timeout of blazers after one of his six 3-pointer in OT, curry used the moment to send a message: “I'm back!”

Curry played 37 minutes and scored 29 points two days later to end the series, and played in every game of the Western Conference Finale against Oklahoma City and the remaining against Cleveland, which both took seven games. In the end, the warriors blew a 3-1 series in the Cavs.

2018 knee injury

In his first game back from a rolled ankle that cost him six regular season games, he shone his left MCL in a game against Atlanta on March 23 when Javal McGee landed in his leg after a shot.

He missed the last 10 games of the regular season and the Warriors went 4: 6 during this period. But in the playoffs they switched on the jets.
