NBA: Former Warriors player fires shots at former teammates: “This is…”

The phase of Golden State Warriors at NBA It’s getting worse and worse. Then, a former player from the California franchise decided to publicly trash the current squad. Retiree, Festus Ezeli Now he is a commentator for the team’s games. San Francisco on “NBC Sports” and made clear his dissatisfaction with the defeat last Wednesday, 10th, against New Orleans Pelicansrevealing that he finds a recovery in the season very unlikely.

“It’s too difficult to me. It’s hard to watch this. But this is the Warriors team now, this is the basketball this squad is playing.”, commented Ezeli. On that occasion, the Pelicans humiliated the Warriors in a 141-105 defeat in the middle of Chase Centerthe biggest difference since Stephen Curry joined the San Francisco team.

With a good life, with 11 wins in the last 15 matches, the New Orleans Pelicans saw their opponents suffer the seventh straight game at home with just two wins. For Ezeli, the Warriors’ biggest challenge now is to recover from the poor campaign they have been having. “It’s complicated because at this point in the campaign, there isn’t much time to adjust the team. So, it’s difficult. I think the main adjustment is about defense. It is necessary to improve, above all, in the defensive transition. They are suffering from this currently”he commented.

“I think there are several problems. The leaders are older. But also overloaded. You have a big load in games and it’s not working out. That’s why I said the adjustments are complicated. This demands a lot of energy from everyone. So I think the philosophy behind the Warriors has been lost. It is important to incorporate young people, without a doubt. But that union and chemistry that have always been the hallmark are not there. At least, that’s not what I see on the court”, concluded Ezeli.
