NBA: Duncan feels uneasy coaching Warriors

Chapter 63

Warriors locker room.

Draymond Green sat in his seat panting, holding Gatorade in his hand.

Like Draymond Green, there is Carl Landry. When Carl Landry passed by Draymond Green, Draymond Green also offered to give him a high five.

If it wasn't for Carl Landry to help him consume James, it would be too much for him to consume James alone.

The main reason is that there is a gap between Barnes' physique and James's. Jefferson is older, so it cannot be said that the two did not work hard.

The gap in strength makes it difficult for them to cause too much trouble to James even if they want to force James.

Unlike Draymond Green and Carl Landry, whose physical strength can match James, hand-to-hand combat with James can cause trouble for James.

Facing Draymond Green's high five, Carl Landry also responded.

Both of them were second-round picks, and they were both fighting for big contracts, which gave them a feeling of sympathy for each other.

"Green, Landry, you guys are doing a good job. In the next quarter, you will be dedicated to defending against James. Don't save your energy."

At this time, Su Chen also walked in with a tactical board.

As soon as Su Chen came in, he said to the two of them.

Obviously, in the second quarter, the two took turns to consume James' effect, and Su Chen was very satisfied.

So simply reduce Jefferson and Barnes to consume James.

In addition, for Barnes and Jefferson, Su Chen planned to save their energy until the final quarter with a small ball lineup.

Although Draymond Green is an important member of the small ball lineup.

But tonight Curry and Thompson did not participate in the action of consuming James. They often played pass and cut tactics, and the two were more restraint than execution.

So Curry Thompson's physical strength is sufficient.

Carl Landry wasn't in the lineup for the key rounds. As for Draymond Green, Su Chen still had stamina recovery potions for Draymond Green to use.

"No problem, coach."

Draymond Green and Carl Landry both agreed.

Draymond Green is actually a little hesitant in his heart. After all, he still thinks about the critical moment, and he has to organize the team.

But now that the atmosphere is here, wouldn't it hurt morale if he said he couldn't do it in front of the coach.

As for Carl Landry, it doesn't matter, anyway, he is not usually on the rotation.

If he and Draymond Green can work together to limit James, then this summer, he won't have to worry about no one giving him a big contract.

The halftime break is over soon.

The third quarter is about to start.

On the Heat's bench, Erik Spoelstra had just come out of the tunnel and taken his place.

During the entire break just now, he was thinking about the countermeasures, and at the same time, he was thinking fast.

At this time, the game hadn't started yet, and he felt a little tired, so he sat on the sidelines to rest his mind.

"Consuming James is already a method used by James, who was isolated and helpless against the Cavaliers a long time ago. Isn't he afraid of Wade and Bosh breaking out at all?"

"But, he seems very confident, why?"

Erik Spoelstra rubbed his temples and pondered those questions.

But after thinking about it for a while, I couldn't figure out why.

The game is about to start.

Erik Spoelstra stood up from the bench and focused on the game.

The head coach has to take care of everything big and small. Even if some things are shared by assistants, it is difficult for the head coach to be in charge of the overall situation.

Even his emotions will affect the players.

This is why the head coach rarely reveals his personal emotions on the sidelines, even anger is to awaken the fighting spirit of the players.

Erik Spoelstra has to put on a calm face and not let the players feel his worry.

And this time, the game started again.

Since James was over-consumed in the first half, Erik Spoelstra protected James and let James rest for a while.

Who knew, seeing James taking a break, Su Chen immediately called two people to the sidelines to wait for a substitution.

Eric Spoelstra saw Curry and Barnes.

The current Warriors lineup is: Festus Ezeri (C), Draymond Green (PF), Richard Jefferson (SF), Klay Thompson (SG), Kent - Bazemore (PG).

Not playing two rounds, the ball went out of bounds.

Curry and Barnes came up, replaced by Azeri and Bazemore.

Eric Spoelstra was a little puzzled. The Warriors didn't come up with their five small lineups throughout the first half.

Why did James hit the fifth child as soon as he went to rest?

The Heat's current lineup: Chris Anderson (C), Chris Bosh (PF), Shane Battier (SF), Ray Allen (SG), Dwyane Wade (PG) ).

Soon, Erik Spoelstra knew why.

The Warriors, who played the slow-paced positional battle throughout the first half, suddenly picked up speed.

Draymond Green plays the center forward as the engine of the team, and at the same time increases the oppressive defense. Once the Heat make a mistake or miss a shot, it will be a whirlwind.

The Warriors' offensive and defensive transitions are fast, but the Warriors' speed is different from that of the Heat.

The Heat's speed relies on super athletic talent like Wade James to run fast.

The Warriors' quickness relies on Green's quick start after picking up the rebound. Curry and Thompson can shoot from the three-point line or even one step from the three-point line.

It's a fast pass and a long range.

And if he could run, Barnes could run fast.

When James was on the court before, he had physical suppression.

But with James, the Heat's physical suppression suddenly became much weaker.

Wade is a good athlete, but there is no James who can run and pass. Wade can run and pass slowly to his teammates.

Eric Spoelstra quickly replaced Birdman Anderson with Chalmers at point guard and Bosh at center.

However, there is still little change to the occupation.

With Curry another fast break three-pointer.

The score on the field.

Heat 66:67 Warriors.

From the beginning to the present, the Warriors have completed the overtake in the score for the first time!

After throwing the ball, Curry performed a shoulder-shaking dance very mischievously, biting his teeth and looking extremely arrogant.

beep!
Seeing Curry's provocative expression, Eric Spoelstra couldn't help it and called a timeout.

Eric Spoelstra didn't think so.

There is only one difference between James and the Warriors, but the gap is so obvious!
In other words, it's the gap between him and the Warriors rookie coach.
