Thompson is back, and it's a stormy city! The debut is still neat, you can see, after a 941-day break Thompson does need a lot of games to adapt, but he has not lost one of the most basic things: emergency stops, three-pointers, defense! These three things were not lost, and standing in front of the warriors was at least an 80% soup god. The game to win the Cavaliers is not representative, that is, the Warriors won the wave, but even in such games, the Warriors have undergone new changes.
Variation 1: "The splash is coming"
When Curry is on the weak side or at the top of the arc, the opponent must dare to pack Curry, because at this time, it is Potter and Poole who are standing at the bottom angle and forty-five degrees. Generally speaking, opponents will bet on Porter's three-point shooting, or that the three-point shot of the gambling brother is not so stable. But when Thompson is standing at forty-five degrees, you can bet on him not being able to shoot, and the Warriors love it all too much for you to go to the bag library. The biggest role of Thompson's return is to completely open up space for the team.
This space is not just for Curry, but for the warriors' entire team' space will become infinite! There is no one in the Warriors' lineup who will not shoot three-pointers (except For Rooney), in the past the Warriors were a strong point Curry with four scattered points to shoot, this strong point is easy to be targeted, but now it is different, the Warriors have two strong points, one Curry and one Thompson are the most accurate players outside the three-point line! This change will not be directly reflected in the Splash Brothers, and when Thompson really returns to the system later, one of the players who will benefit the most from this will be Peyton Jr. and one will be a mouth mushroom, because these two people can cut infinitely!
Change two: The team cap can't be touched
When Thompson returned, the Warriors had several lineups that could play five small, the most basic five: Curry, Thompson, Wiggins, Green, and Iguodala. At the same time, the Warriors can also put people like Pooler, Anderson, and Potter. In other words, Cole has an infinite number of cards in his hand, and the Warriors will be the trouble for the whole league! The current version is the 15-year and 16-year upgrade version, when the Warriors' general lineup was one more Barnes and Livingston, but now the Warriors are not a Barnes and a Livingston can be clearly said lineup.
On the defensive line, when Curry comes up with this season's elite level of defense, he and Thompson can lock in the defensive line, and Wiggins has shown more than once this season what is his single defense ability, he can pinch any player who is not as tall as him. And the defense of Iguodala and Green is not to mention, this lineup is not just a simple way to kill the basket if it is a defensive counterattack, there are many ways to end. The most important thing is that Wiggins is not barnes of the year, and his ability to hold the ball and kill is the level of a first-class small forward, which is a substantial improvement for the Warriors.
Variation three: Unlimited rotation
Although there is only one more Thompson, the Warriors can already completely open their rotation! Curry doesn't have to pinch the watch to get on the court, the Warriors don't have to think about how to use the playing time of core players more reasonably, and the Warriors' field is full of people who can play. In regular time, the Warriors can let Curry and Wiggins be present at the same time, and the Warriors can directly put up the backcourt combination of Poole and Thompson in bench time, and even say that the Warriors can directly let these three guards be present together, Kerr can rotate as much as he wants, but no matter how the rotation, the Warriors always have a stable three-point on the court.
Also don't forget that the Warriors also have some bench lineups, Payton Jr., brother-in-law, Cuminga and Wiseman, who will return in the future, the Warriors can maximize the luxury of personnel! You can make a wave of offensive lineups can also put out a wave of defensive lineups, the Warriors can change a lot in personnel, because the Warriors can have a lot of strong points, especially outside the three-point line Warriors have a strong supplement can be replaced at will, as long as the Warriors can pull the space away, the offensive firepower is equivalent to half open!
The only suspense: the Nets
In the case of the warriors who are now fully formed, as Thompson said after the game, the big trouble of the whole league is coming, and the Warriors want to win the championship! The Warriors did upgrade the roster further after timperson, but at the same time, the team that threatened the Warriors the most in the league should be the Nets. The Nets are an unreasonable team, there are no offensive tactics and defensive tactics to speak of, that is, rely on superstars to solve the game, to put it bluntly, it is the personal offense of the spelling star, the Warriors are most afraid of this kind of team, and only the Nets can maximize this threat. But for the Nets to pose a threat to the Warriors, two elements need to be met: one, that is, the Nets and the Warriors have reached the Finals; second, Irving must move from part-time to full-time! Otherwise, the Nets wouldn't have to fight!
(Sorry, Yuzu sister really can't make it up!) Finally, everyone has a cold knowledge, the most classic riding battle is coming, the splash is back, Iguodala is back, Green is off the field, Lefu is not gone, so who is left who has not played? ）
