Why Jimmy Butler against Cam Johnson Warriors-Nets-Matchups is to see-NBC Sports Bay Area & California

The Warriors close their five-game road trip through the Eastern Conference on Thursday by confronting a memory of past vulnerabilities.

Do you remember the Brooklyn Nets? The team that came to the Chase Center on November 25 and had wiped out an 18-point deficit to beat with warriors with a loss that sent them to a downward spiral?

Golden State (34-28) has a chance of retaliation when it hit Brooklyn (21-40) in the Barclays Center. The reporting on the NBC Sports Bay Area starts at 3:30 p.m. with Warriors Pregame Live, with Tipoff planned for 4:30 a.m.

The Warriors, who have improved significantly since the acquisition of Jimmy Butler III, four weeks ago, can prove that they have reversed their tendency to choke against inferior teams.

Butler primarily projects responsible for the defense of Cameron Johnson, one of the best 3-point shooters from NBA, Brooklyn. He is second in the NETS worth achieved and an average of 18.8 points per game at 47.3 percent shoot from the field, including 39.8 from Deep. He scored at least 20 points in 17 out of 46 games, with a high season of 37.

Although Dynamic Guard Cam Thomas Brooklyn leads 24.2 points per game, Johnson was a more reliable barometer for team success. The nets have won five of the last six games in which he exceeded the 20-point mark.

The networks that sink towards the design of the lottery are 1-6 because the all-star break and four of the losses were double digits. They are no better than in November when they administered a hard lesson.

The Warriors were 12-4 and on the Western Conference when Brooklyn (7-10, seventh in the east) chased with four rotary players. In the last 14 minutes of their previous game in San Antonio, they had burned a lead of 17 points and were able to recover.

In the last 19 minutes, the Warriors led 86: 68 with seven minutes before the third quarter over 60: 34. To lose a big lead in the second half for the second game in a row, was the origin of a 15-game route, in which they were 3-12 and settled in longer sub-mediaots.

The warriors have revised themselves since then. Collective self -confidence is noticeably higher than at all times this season. In the glow of your latest climb, you also know that another loss against Brooklyn – swept in the series of the season – would be catastrophic.

Golden State remembers November, even if Butler was in Miami. The approach to this game will indicate whether this lesson has been completely absorbed.
