Cole: There is no problem with the team’s defense, but I am more worried about the rhythm and smoothness of the offense.

In the NBA Cup group stage, the Warriors lost to the Trail Blazers 123-127 and suffered a three-game losing streak.

When Cole was asked after the game whether the continuity of the team's defensive end had met expectations, Cole said that he was not worried about the team's defense, but more worried about the offense.

"I think overall, our defense is actually quite good. What really bothered us tonight was the loss of points on the second offense," Cole said. "I think Avdija performed very well and kept attacking the inside. In the early days of the game, he gave Klingen a few assists. Later, we decided that we must improve the height of the field and began to send out AI (Horford)/Post and Dream Chaser. "I don't think there will be a problem with our defense. I'm not worried about it at the moment - the lack of rhythm and fluidity. This week is very critical for us. We will have a rest starting from Sunday, and we will have a few training sessions next week. It will be a good week."
