NBA: Booker’s template, female stars are all power banks

The Los Angeles Clippers replaced Lopez and Jeff Green. In addition to increasing the team's firepower output on the offensive end, the biggest advantage is that it speeds up the team's transition offense.

There is only one situation when a traditional center faces the Golden State Warriors' "Death Five".

That means being beaten endlessly by the opponent, that's all!

In addition to being targeted by the Warriors, if Lopez is on the court, the Clippers' lineup will completely collapse!

It has to be said that Coach Steve Kerr’s success is not just due to his “max-level” status.

His understanding of tactics and ability to respond on the spot are amazing!

The Golden State Warriors have been able to achieve such brilliant results in recent years, which is also closely related to Steve Kerr.

On the field!

When the Warriors put on the "Death Five", their transition speed on the offensive end was completely different from when Dekumar Cousins ​​was on the court!

In particular, Durant and Draymond Green's defense in the restricted area is no less than the inside defense of any other team in the league.

On the other hand, the Los Angeles Clippers have only a 2-meter-tall veteran named Anthony at center.

The height difference between the two sides' inside lines is visible to the naked eye!

Fortunately, in the first quarter of today's game, Grace Allen and Lou Williams, who came on as substitutes, both had a good touch from beyond the three-point line.

This also led to the fact that although the Warriors had an absolute advantage in height, they were unable to widen the score gap!

After the first quarter, the Los Angeles Clippers, playing away, temporarily trailed the Warriors by two points at 34:36.

"Today, the Warriors and Clippers' offensive performances were amazing!"

"That's right, in the battle between the small lineups, neither team is willing to give in!"

On the TNT commentary stand on the sidelines, Smith spoke passionately: "This high-level offensive battle can not only feast the eyes of the audience, but also show the changes in basketball now!"

"As much as I hate to admit it, the traditional center is a thing of the past!"

Smith glanced at O'Neal beside him and said meaningfully, "Shaq, you were once the most dominant center in the league. I wonder how you feel now!?"

O'Neal is still very idealistic: "This is the changing of the times!"

"The era full of inside confrontation is now a thing of the past!"

Just as O'Neill said!

Ever since the Warriors' "Death Five" successfully won the championship, other teams in the league have begun to follow the Warriors' team-building ideas.

In this process, traditional centers such as Howard and Cousins ​​are heading towards the end of their road.

Short guards such as Curry, Trae Young, and Ja Morant began to rise.

In the Western Conference Finals, the Los Angeles Clippers used a five-guard lineup to catch the defending champions off guard and took a 3:2 lead in the series.

If the Clippers' small lineup can't win the game.

Then the situation will completely fall apart!

In a decisive Game 7, the Clippers really have no advantage!

Even if Ye Huan explodes, he can fight against the Haixiao brothers alone.

But who else on the Clippers can handle the rest of the Warriors?

In other words:

If the Clippers want to eliminate the Warriors and enter the finals.

Then this game will be their only chance!

If the Warriors drag the series into a seventh game, their chances will increase suddenly!
