In the third quarter, the Warriors recovered, and the team scored 35 points more than the first half, but the defensive end failed to restrain the opponent, making the lone ranger score 4 1 point in a single quarter. After the third quarter, the Warriors fell behind by 39 points, and Dansis punched out early. In the fourth quarter, the Warriors' substitute lineup returned a wave of 39-30 to save a little face, and the final score was fixed at 100.
After the game, Cole said in an interview: "This is the most important game of the year, but it ended before it started. Very disappointing. I'm not worried about the nine-minute score shortage. I am more worried about our defensive strength and degree of struggle. "
Indeed, in this game, the warrior's defense is useless and can't completely stop the lone ranger's attack. Originally, the attack was limited, the defense was well done, and it was difficult for the opponent to score points. The game didn't play too early, but it happened that the Warriors couldn't attack and the defense was poor. It is not difficult to understand the reason for the fiasco. However, Cole seems to have overlooked that in the past two years, when they faced the lone ranger, they almost never defended better!
Since the last game of the 20 18- 19 season against the lone ranger, the two teams have played seven times, and the Warriors only scored 1 win and 6 losses. In the six games lost to the lone ranger, the Warriors lost 27 points per game, and almost every game was lost by their opponents, so there was no defense at all.

Counting the tragic loss of 30 points, these six games lost to the lone ranger with 162 points, averaging 27 points, which is the biggest nemesis encountered by the Warriors in recent years. The only victory during this period was on February 7, 202 1, and the Warriors beat their opponents with a score of 3 1.
It is worth mentioning that from the last 8 minutes and 40 seconds of the first quarter to the 58 seconds of the second quarter, the Warriors failed to score 1 point during this period, which is the longest scoring drought in the league 12 years. The last time there was such a shameful record, it was on February 6, 2009, when the Bucks lost to the Cavaliers. Curry 12 just entered the league. As the top striker in history, he can only helplessly witness this shameful record with the team.
