[NOWnews今日新聞] The Golden State Warriors have had a rough start to the season, with their record currently less than 50%. Well-known football commentator Charles Barkley recently promoted the view that “the Warriors are finished” on a show. Warriors star shooter Klay Thompson scoffed at this, saying that the opponent has never won a championship. I don’t know how difficult it is, and I bluntly said that Barkley is just jealous of the Warriors.

The Warriors lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder 136:138 in a recent game and suffered three kills from the Thunder this season. This team made as many as 29 turnovers in this game. It can be said that they deserved to lose with such content of the game. Head coach Steve Kerr believes that the number of mistakes and fouls is the reason why they are in crisis, but he also believes that the team is still capable of winning the championship.

“I watched this team win a championship a year and a half ago. These guys are champions, but they’re not playing like they did (this season) and I don’t like that and we have to figure it out. ” Kerr said.

At the beginning of this season, Barkley repeatedly claimed during the game that the Warriors were “done” and “no longer a championship contender.” In a conversation with former Warriors general manager Bob Myers last Saturday, Barkley joked: “I want to compliment you. Jumped off the Titanic before it sank.”

These words certainly didn’t sit well with Warriors members. After inquiring about what Barkley said, Klay Thompson responded disdainfully, “Has he ever praised us?” Then he said unceremoniously: “Bakley can’t understand winning a championship. How hard is it, let alone for several years? We are still competing in this league. How many wins are we now? 10 wins and 12 losses? There are still 60 regular season games to go. He has been jealous of us since 2015 , so it’s not surprising to say this.”

Thompson believes that the Warriors actually played very well against some playoff opponents. All they need to do well is the last 10 minutes of the game. He is full of confidence in the Warriors: “I will never lose confidence in this team – we have gone through too many battles together – never.”
