NBA: Duncan feels uneasy coaching Warriors

Chapter 45 Warriors' new starting lineup
Soon, Su Chen gathered the players and trained the five small lineups.

At the same time, they were divided into two teams and played against each other.

The next day.

Still according to yesterday's training volume,

I don't know if it's because of the five-small system, the transition speed between the two sides is too fast, and Bogut sprained his ankle when running and jumping.

After being checked by the team doctor, Bogut will be absent for at least a month, and one month can basically declare that he will not be able to return for the entire playoffs.

Bogut was injured in training, which was a big blow to the Warriors.

However, as the head coach, Su Chen didn't change much in his expression.

Bogut himself is not an Iron Man player.

And for Bogut, Su Chen, who is a time traveler, knows some of the things he has done, so naturally he doesn't have a good impression of him.

The reason why Bogut is used is because the pressure of playing the Spurs is too great, and there is no reason to dnp Bogut.

And Bogut didn't take the initiative to provoke Su Chen, but in fact, dnp to get rid of Bogut was what Su Chen had been planning.

Even if Bogut wasn't injured, Su Chen didn't want to use Bogut anymore.

Besides, after passing the Spurs, Bogut is not so important.

The strength of playing against the Grizzlies itself is suppression. Playing against the Heat with the Heat's shooters, Bogut will miss a lot of three-pointers when he is on the court.

"Su, what should we do?"

Ron Adams was in a hurry.

The Warriors have reliable insiders, and the only ones who can fit the current Warriors lineup are Azeri and David Lee.

"Would you like to put Carl Landry in the rotation?"

Milosevic suggested.

"Carl Landry doesn't fit this system, and his own offensive ability is not as good as David Lee's. Biedrins is too poor to be in the rotation now."

Su Chen denied Milosevic's proposal.

The two looked at each other, it was true to say so, but what about the insider?

David Lee's defense has many problems, but there is no way, and David Lee can only be included in the main rotation.

But even if David Lee is reused, only Draymond Green and Azeri will rotate inside.

"Remember what we said yesterday?"

"It looks like we're going ahead."

Su Chen said to the two of them.

Although the two agreed with this idea after listening to it yesterday, they didn't have any reference after all.

If it's in the regular season, it's okay to just try and make mistakes.

But now that the Western Conference Finals is here, it is too bold to test the lineup in the Western Conference Finals.

But with Bogut absent, it does seem like a solution.

Otherwise, it would be too difficult to rely on three players to rotate inside.

Physical strength is a big problem, and even if you can overcome the problem of physical strength, you can rely on willpower to play.

Another big problem is the problem of fouls. The opponent sees that your inside line is not deep enough, so they will hit your inside line infinitely.

It doesn't matter whether you can score or not, and whether your efficiency is high or not.

It is to target your inside players, hit the foul trap, and hit until you dare not reach out to defend.

"It seems that's the only way, Su, I still believe that you can do it."

Thinking of this, Ron Adams smiled helplessly.

Milosevic also nodded, but there was some uncontrollable excitement in his eyes, such a bold attempt was quite exciting.

FedEx Arena.

Tonight's Memphis people have adjusted their status.

Basketball is not a game. No matter how good a player is, there are times when he plays, and no matter how ordinary a player is, there are times when he eats dumplings.

For the Grizzlies tonight's game, there is no room for loss.

Generally speaking, two teams with similar strength will score 2-2.

These two scores are usually home victories.

If the difference in strength between the two teams in the playoffs is not large, the home court advantage is still relatively large.

Atmosphere and mood, and a certain home whistle.

Just like the attacking side and the defending side, at home is the defending side, which has a greater advantage.

It’s okay to lose one home game, but if they lose two home games in a row, then this round of the series will already be biased towards the other side.

The people of Memphis are united tonight, even if they are just fans, they try their best to interfere with the opposing players on the field by yelling, dancing, and other means.

This game determined the direction of this round of the series, and the Warriors once again continued their dark horse posture, making this game a high-profile game.

Several members of the gold medal commentary team also came to the Memphis home court.

"Guys, don't rush to chat, I'll read an important message first."

Just at the beginning, Johnson took a document from the staff.

"Okay, tell me quickly."

O'Neill said anxiously.

Just now he saw that Johnson looked very surprised when he got the information, and he was also curious about what it was.

"Just now the Warriors officially announced that Bogut will be absent this season, and on the roster for this game, Bogut did not enter the Warriors roster."

Johnson told several people the news he had just learned.

As soon as these words were said, there was a burst of exclamation.

"It was only announced when the big list was submitted. It seems that this is not what happened today."

Buckley said.

Obviously, the Warriors deliberately kept the news secret, just not to make a strategy in advance to let the Grizzlies know the news.

"With the loss of the starting center, it seems that the dark horse of the Warriors will hardly go far."

Kenny Smith shook his head and said.

Kenny Smith was a staunch supporter of the Warriors before, but even Kenny Smith, who is optimistic about the Warriors, is no longer optimistic about the Warriors at this time.

The Warriors' style of play relies heavily on pick-and-rolls, and Bogut is the Warriors' best pick-and-roll player.

"The key is that their internal rotation is not enough."

O'Neal is also not optimistic about the Warriors.

"In any case, even if the Warriors lose this series, their team has a bright future and is still worth looking forward to next season."

Kenny Smith said.

Kenny Smith is really looking forward to the Warriors' lineup, and Su Chen's system is also very promising.

"The starting lineup is here, let's see what changes to the Warriors lineup."

Johnson watched the staff coming and said.

"Let's start with Azeri, there's no suspense about this."

Kenny Smith said immediately.

He can roughly guess the Warriors' system after watching it for so long. In many cases, Azeri is playing with the starting lineup.

For the Warriors' starters, the impact of the reduction in strength is not great, and Azeri is also a qualified rotation in this system.

But with Azeri starting, the Warriors have no backup center.

David Lee's defense is relatively poor when he plays the power forward position, let alone a center forward.

"Is this true?"

At this time, Johnson also got the information.

When he saw the Warriors' starting lineup, Johnson was shocked, and couldn't organize his words for a while.
