Parker's eruption, along with the Spurs shooters making those three-pointers, was the real key to their victory.
Actually, if you want West to help the Warriors find the reason for their loss, he will tell you that the real root lies with the two unstable aides, Artest and Davis, who have contributed to the Warriors losing three games in this year's playoffs.
In Qin Yue's past life, including Parker's training phase, Davis only had a 35.6% overall shooting accuracy when matched against Parker.
What about Parker?
The answer is 53.5%.
Although player factors must be considered, Davis has never been a guard who makes reasonable shot selections, nor can he be deemed efficient at any stage of his career.
In this lifetime, playing alongside Qin Yue has gradually changed Davis, making him the perfect second organizer for the Warriors.
Yet his 100kg weight also means his output on the court inevitably falls short compared to Parker, who focuses solely on single plays during the game.
