Warriors coach Kerr does have something.
He has already used 1-on-1 defense and Bao Jia, but still can't prevent the Lakers' offense, so he won't work on defense.
And this time he had no intention of attacking the Lakers.
Just now, the Warriors' offensive efficiency has been quite good, but unfortunately the Lakers' offensive efficiency is too terrible, so they can't beat the opponent.
At least in the face of the Lakers' sudden burst of shooting, they couldn't beat each other.
Why are the Lakers shooting percentage so high?
The reason is because the Lakers are playing at a comfortable pace.
Many things have a rhythm.
There is a rhythm to playing games, a rhythm to dancing, and a rhythm to competitions.
And specifically speaking, in the game, each player has his own shooting rhythm. If it is enlarged to the entire team, a team's offense also has their overall rhythm.
Once they are at their comfortable pace, the offense is very smooth and their hit rate is very high.
If their rhythm is broken, they will feel awkward whether they are shooting or laying up.
Offensive efficiency will naturally decline.
Thinking of this, Cole said to the Warriors and players:
"We can't guard their shots for the time being, so we will play at a fast pace. We have been playing at a fast pace all season, but now we have to be faster. If our pace is faster, we will drag the Lakers into our rhythm.
Come in."
"They are better at positional warfare this season, but once they are dragged up to run against us, their offensive efficiency will be greatly reduced."
"So run, everyone run."
At the same time, Cole also made adjustments to his personnel.
Replace the 2.13-meter Wiseman.
Let Green, who is 2.01 meters tall, move to the center position.
In this way, the Warriors played a five-small lineup.
The five dead men who once made the alliance fearful.
The five-small lineup is more mobile and can speed up the pace.
Coupled with their passing and cutting style, it will be difficult for the Lakers to resist.
At the same time, Cordial's style of play is also to consume James.
James exerted too much physical energy in the first quarter, and now he is asked to run back and forth with the Warriors as soon as the second quarter begins.
Then in the second half, the king with old arms and legs will be unsustainable.
Lakers coach Vogel knows that Cole will definitely make adjustments after this timeout, but at present he cannot guess how Cole will adjust and can only let the Lakers players continue to maintain the current style of play.
The commentators from more than 100 countries on the sidelines almost all said the same thing.
"There are only 7 minutes left in the second quarter. LeBron James has rested long enough. He will play after this timeout. Let's see how Cole will respond."
And when the timeout came back and the players from both sides stood on the court again, everyone was shocked.
"Nani LeBon didn't play?"
This is a little local commentator.
"Walter, why hasn't LeBron come in yet?"
This is the British narrator.
"I'm going, but James isn't on the court yet? But Wang Yi is still on the court!"
"This is a rhythm that will tire Brother Yi to death."
"I am more concerned about James' health. He has not played so far. It is possible that there is something wrong with his body."
This is the explanation of the big place.
Warriors coach Cole saw that James still didn't play, and he already had a suspicion in his mind that James
It's possible that James is not in good health.
Then it doesn't matter. What was arranged just now was to consume LeBron. Now that LeBron is not playing, Wang Yi will be consumed.
Wang Yi has played for 17 consecutive minutes today without even a second of rest.
The Warriors went up and used fast-paced play to constantly consume Wang Yi. In this way, Wang Yi's physical energy would be lost quickly.
Let’s see how he plays in the second half.
Soon the Warriors dribbled to the frontcourt, and in just 10 seconds they took a quick shot and hit a three-pointer.
Looking back at the Lakers' attack, the Warriors' five-small lineup of death took advantage of their strong mobility and constantly attacked Lakers players.
Although the Lakers pass the ball very quickly, the Warriors players can defend every pass.
And kept reaching out to interfere with Lakers players' passes or shots.
It's like there is a person waving a tree branch in front of every Lakers player, constantly blocking your passes and shots, making the Lakers players very uncomfortable.
This is the terrible thing about the five little things of death.
Not only are they good at fast breaks, but their high mobility on the defensive end allows them to rotate quickly and always defend in place.
Under their defense, the Lakers made a mistake.
The Warriors quickly launched a counterattack, and finally Thompson succeeded with a dunk.
And for three consecutive rounds, the Warriors played at a very fast pace.
On the defensive end, they kept attacking, forcing the Lakers to make mistakes or miss shots. On the offensive end, they always took shots within 10 seconds.
This speeds up the pace of the game very quickly.
Even if they miss a shot, the Lakers will increase their speed in order to counterattack.
In this way, he fell right into the rhythm of the Warriors.
In such a fast pace, Garfield, who has old arms and legs, simply cannot keep up, and the Lakers will fall into an embarrassing situation of 4 on 5.
The effect will naturally be greatly reduced.
The commentators on the sidelines have already seen it.
The white-haired Grant nodded repeatedly and praised Cole: "So that's it, Steve Kerr, this is asking the Warriors to speed up the pace as much as possible, and at the same time send out the five dead players to constantly bite the Lakers."
Bearded Hu Gartman also praised: "I can exaggerate and say that Cole is the best coach in the world, bar none. His response was timely and the effect was very effective. Now the Warriors have narrowed the point difference to 10
It depends on how the Lakers coach responds."
Soon, Lakers coach Vogel also called a timeout.
During the timeout, he pointed out the problems of the Lakers players to the point.
"Obviously the Warriors are speeding up. They want to speed up the tempo of the game as much as possible to drag us into their rhythm. They have been playing fast-paced basketball all season, and we are better at positional warfare. If we are dragged by them
If we enter the field they are good at, then we will definitely die."
"So after we play again, we have to stabilize, we have to be slow, and we can't follow them. Wang, as the engine of the court, you have to be even slower. Do you understand what I mean? We have to play at our own pace, and we can't follow them.
They run."
Vogel repeatedly emphasized this.
James also nodded repeatedly.
There is nothing wrong with what Cole emphasized.
But at this moment, Wang Yi put forward a different opinion: "Coach, actually we can also play at a fast pace. And we can be faster than them."
Vogel was stunned and looked at Wang Yi: "What do you mean?"
Wang Yi had a mysterious smile on his face: "Coach, do you still remember the tactic of one move falling from the sky?"
"What?"
Vogel looked confused.
"Kneeling and bombardment tactics!"
