Danny Abdia speaks after the game against Toronto (Wizards' Twitter account)

Golden State continued its successful season opener this morning (Thursday), reaching a 1: 6 balance after convincingly beating 92: 114 over Charlotte. If so far this season it has been clear that the Warriors depend on Stephen Kerry's fitness, this time the team received a significant contribution from the "sub-players": Jordan Paul scored 31 points, Gary Peyton II made a great defensive contribution and put in a lot of energy with 14 points and 3 steals, And while Clay Thompson continues to show signs of progress toward the comeback, the energies at Golden State are positive.

Peyton, the son of a former Seattle player ("the glove"), was released by the Warriors after a pre-season game last month, but was re-signed four days later.

In moments of uncertainty, he assured himself that he would be ready for the season and work hard, knowing that "the offer would come from somewhere," and in the end, as mentioned, stayed with the Warriors, and the decision seemed to pay off for both parties.

Now coach Steve Kerr believes he will use it even more.

"I can see Gary Peyton II all night defending," Clay Thompson tweeted about the game, in which Golden State took advantage of a dominant third quarter to escape and win.

"He took control of the game in his minutes," Kerr said of Peyton, "he just changed everything with his defense, his activity, he's an electrifying athlete. Jump and stand out, and the teammates are dying for him, and rightly so. "

In addition, Jordan Paul scored 11 of 21 from the field including 7 threes en route to his 31 points, Steph Kerry felt bad at first and recovered en route to 15 points (and 9 assists and 8 rebounds), Andre Iguodala returned from injury, c 'James Weissman will be back soon, Clay Thompson once again took to the field for shooting practice and lit up the fans with shots across the arc without a miss, and along with a full squad, ESPN commentator Stephen A Smith claims: "People, I'm tired of guessing. All I know, when I watch the Warriors Goddess, if Clay Thompson and James Weissman come back and these guys stay healthy, damn it, the Warriors win the championship, period! "

Thompson has not played for 30 months, and it is estimated that he will return in another month or two.

Kerr also said yesterday: "Clay's upcoming return has a huge impact on our team, there is a great expectation and a lot of energy from it. Iguodala's return also adds, there is a lot of hope and expectation to see who we are and where we are going, and everyone here is excited about it."

* Will Kyrie Irving return to play for the Brooklyn uniform this season, despite his refusal to get vaccinated?

This week a new mayor (Eric Adams) was elected in New York, who during his campaign expressed his desire to re-examine some of the city's corona and vaccine regulations.

His choice raises hopes that the vaccine requirement will change, which will affect the possibility that Irving will be able to play.

"I may be talking too hastily, but I think if regulations change, we'll happily get Kyrie back, no doubt," said Brooklyn coach Steve Nash, who hints that Brooklyn is waiting to see how things develop in hopes of change, rather than rushing to release their star or zoom trade .

Elected Mayor Adams is a Brooklyn native and a fan of the Hunts, and in the past said: "I think this matter will be resolved on its own. I think we will also find a way to maintain everyone's health and safety, and maintain our standards.

Tonight Brooklyn gave a show, and after being ranked only 22nd in the league offensively, this time the list went on the offensive and went up to a 3: 5 balance after 108: 117 over Atlanta in front of over 17,000 spectators.

"We connect on both sides of the court, understand better how we want to play," said Steve Nash, "We get better, care more about each other, but it's an unfinished process."

* The Boston Celtics held a close player meeting before tonight's game, in which the Celtics defeated Orlando 79-92.

The meeting came after the total collapse of Boston in Chicago, after the Celtics led by 14 points early in the quarter and lost the game by 14 points, going down to a 5: 2 balance, when Marcus Smart criticized Jaylen Brown and Jason Taitum and said "they are not removed The ball. "

The three actors talked to each other, in what was an "emotional conversation," ESPN reported.

"When we are not winning, these comments are something we do not need," Brown said of his teammate's public criticism, "but we have talked to each other, and we are always trying to find ways to talk and find solutions."
