Cole: First round confrontation & playing time puts a burden on Curry, but in order to win, he can only play more

Basketball

May 8th News This morning, Warriors coach Cole participated in the Bay Area radio program "WillardDibs".

Speaking of Curry's injury, Kerr said: "What would you do if you want to advance? Let Curry play 32 minutes and then lose the game? You have to do everything necessary to ensure the promotion, but you also know that long-term appearances will have an impact on the players.

"There is no doubt that the physical strength of the series and the large amount of playing time in Curry did indeed burden him in seven games against the Rockets. Another option is to reduce his playing time, but this could lead to a loss in the series against the Rockets, and then (if you lose) everyone would question why Stephen wasn't much. This is not a real dilemma, it is just reality. ”

37-year-old Curry averaged 38.3 minutes in the first round of the playoffs, and in the tiebreak that just ended on May 5, Curry played for 45 minutes and 31 seconds, and only had a day off.
