Curry may miss at least 3 games, the Warriors want to withstand the Timberwolves counterattack, Butler must do something

The good news is that the Warriors won G1 and won the home advantage, and the bad news is that Curry withdrew from the game with a strain on his left hamstring. Even the lightest first-degree strain will have to rest for at least one week. In other words, Curry will be absent from G2, G3 and G4. The game between the Timberwolves is bound to counterattack wildly. The Warriors must bear at least three games without being a star, so as not to let the big score become 1-3. Can they withstand it?
If you want to withstand the Timberwolves' counterattack without Curry, Butler must show his state when he led the Heat to the finals twice, that is, he must average at least 25 points per game. Butler's average of only 18.6 points per game so far has been too plain. Curry is not there, but he must burst out, and he does have the ability to score points.
Butler is best at playing sports forwards with ball quotient and rhythm. In the first round, he faces the Rockets' defense. Butler scores 20 points in 4 games in three games. Now he faces the Timberwolves of the same type. He can play strong as long as he wants to play.
Butler is the absolute main attacker, but not the only card Cole can play on the offensive end. Given that the Timberwolves will reuse Gobert in this round of the series, the Warriors can completely put Post in the starting lineup, and then use his pick-and-roll and Butler to transfer Gobert out of the paint area, which not only gives Butler a wider attack space, but also uses Post's three-point threat to make the Warriors' offense more three-dimensional.
With Mengmeng Green's low post defense, Post can also provide rebounds and frame protection for the Warriors. Further reduce Edwards' box-breaking efficiency. However, Post's ability determines that he can only play 15-20 minutes in a game. But this even game is enough to affect the final trend of the game.
If Post is an inside surprise, then Spansai is an outside surprise. G1, a 28-year-old sophomore, scored 4 points, 2 rebounds and 2 steals in 10 minutes. In the previous series between the Warriors and the Rockets, Spansai's tough performance was also eye-catching. There are not many tough guys in the Warriors who can catch their dreams, and Spansay is definitely the surprise of this round of the series.
If he can play the role of the 2016 Knight Delavidova, he will be entangled with Edwards. The Warriors can pinch the Timberwolves' offensive firepower from the source. In addition, Spansai's football quotient is still very high. After running with Hield in the game, he made a cover for Hield on the spot. Cole often has a special liking for golf players, and the games after Span's game should play a certain role.
Although the Timberwolves are fierce, they can not use many tricks on the offensive end, and the Warriors can defend. Just make a big move by making a big move, you can turn a wolf into a dog.
