In their offensive choices against the Timberwolves the Warriors committed some errors

This is not meant to minimise the Minnesota Timberwolves outstanding defensive performance.

Golden State Warriors offensive rating was capped at 97.9 by them but I thought they kind of shot themselves in the foot tonight.

If necessary such as when Curry has to choose a particularly juicy target

In order to get him the matchup he wants the Warriors are more than happy to ramp up ballscreens for him.

[{"selector":"#anim-818334b6-4c80-4970-b9ce-99752996205d [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.843749786673241%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credits - @warrior Twitter Image Credits - @warrior Twitter

The defence must then choose between two options: either they forfeit the simple switch and the resulting mismatch

[{"selector":"#anim-d4640f2a-15df-4cfb-97c1-5b45136ca4ad [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.843749786673241%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credits - @warrior Twitter Image Credits - @warrior Twitter

Instead they devise a covering gimmick to stop the probable mismatch.

[{"selector":"#anim-1dfbdbf7-72ab-4767-8dfb-1681058b18c0 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.843749786673241%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credits - @warrior Twitter Image Credits - @warrior Twitter

The Warriors though just settled too frequently for my tastes whether it was due to poor decision-making poor procedure or settling as a result of other things (such as weariness).

[{"selector":"#anim-3846fa27-ed05-4911-9a4e-e95a0d3fcf6d [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.843749786673241%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credits - @warrior Twitter Image Credits - @warrior Twitter

Making poor shot choices chucking shots early in the shot clock and having moments of uncertainty

[{"selector":"#anim-22f3649a-9bd2-40bd-973e-0d6d10d22335 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.843749786673241%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credits - @warrior Twitter Image Credits - @warrior Twitter

all of which assisted the Wolves in stifling the Warriors offence. moving too quickly in circumstances where waiting was the appropriate course of action.

You probably werent expecting me to bring out this particular property; Ill talk about some of the more obvious ones later. But give me a chance on this.

[{"selector":"#anim-b33b4992-922c-4f0d-b530-da207641535d [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.843749786673241%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credits - @warrior Twitter Image Credits - @warrior Twitter

Nevertheless Jordan Poole receives the ball from Curry and instead of approaching Taurean Prince alone Poole passes to Curry instead.

Curry attempts to have Towns chase him as the ball transitions into a split action in the low post.

While it was a modest example in many respects it was the loudest. Curry cant be entirely blamed either; after all

[{"selector":"#anim-223bd4b7-bc80-456d-93b4-76b072f86067 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.843749786673241%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] Image Credits - @warrior Twitter Image Credits - @warrior Twitter

During his minutes the Warriors did outscore the Wolves by two points; this was a microcosm of the disorganised offence that the Warriors were dealing with.

They are however recording the second-highest number of turnovers per game (16.2) trailing only the Houston Rockets (16.5).

The Rockets 16.5 TOV% puts them ahead of no other club in the league but that also holds true for their 15.7 TOV%.

Against the Wolves they made 16 mistakes that led to 24 points being scored by the Wolves.

I could point out every single one but it would take all day so lets just focus on the worst ones.
