The Warriors, who trailed by 15 points at halftime and had just won 10 in a row had not experienced such a bad moment in a long time.

Mark. Jackson's vaunted twin towers didn't work, and Stephen. Curry and Klay. Thompson's scoring stats weren't as good as they could have been without a ton of chances.

Now, he had no choice. In charge of the initiative was the team leading by a large margin. The only thing Jackson can do is listen to the main coach Lang. Scott's suggestion, step up the offense and play a big four small lineup!

What is the concept of being 15 points behind the solid Pacers? You'll have to make five three-pointers in a row and you can't let the Pacers score in the interim, to have a chance of tying the score.

Against other teams, it doesn't seem difficult to pull back 15 points at half-time. But against the defending champions, the conventional approach certainly won't work.

Anyway, it's death both horizontally and vertically, so it's better to give it a go!

"Mark. Coach Jackson's 11-game winning streak dream was shattering, and he shouldn't have faced the Pacers with such arrogance before the game, he should have thought that Coach Henson wouldn't be able to let him get his wish. "On the podium, Reggie. Miller is still teasing Mark. Jackson.

And at this time, Mark. Jackson has quietly arranged a big and four small tactics, just waiting for the opening!

Henson didn't expect Mark. Jackson will have the courage to break the boat, so at the start of the second half, Henson spotted Draymond. After Green started in place of Bogut, he reconciled with Reggie on the commentary bench. Miller was just as surprised.

"Mark. Coach Jackson was the first to change the lineup, and he really didn't want to waste the opportunity to tie the 11-game winning streak. One big and four small, the Warriors have changed to a lineup of one big and four small, and they plan to attack against attack! ”

Draymond. Green, Henson stared at the stocky guy, the 23rd's several performances today have already made Henson's eyes shine.

As a second-round pick, Green was able to get a regular rotation spot with the Warriors this season, which is undoubtedly and very successful. But Henson believes Green's value is more than that. Combined with the ability he saw and the quality Green showed today, this guy should be able to become a "lubricant" type player in the future.

He can lead the defense with his somewhat rough attitude, can use his excellent passing ability to organize the offense, and can use his three-point range to open up space for his teammates.

The comprehensiveness of this second-round show is definitely beyond the imagination of most people. If Henson were to coach the Warriors right now, he would try to get Green on the ball in order to bring out the full potential of Curry and Thompson off-ball offense.

But there is no doubt that Mark. Jackson doesn't think the grumpy No. 23 is an all-rounder. At least for now, he's in Draymond. The only strengths seen in Green are defense and range. To put it bluntly, Mark. Jackson is using Green as a big "3-and-d" player.

Even so, however, Green can make a huge difference. After all, this season Draymond. Green's three-point shooting percentage is as high as 33 percent, which is just in line with the passing level. And today, Green already has two three-point hits.

"He's changed formations, and it looks like you're underestimating Mark. Jackson's guts. Vogel smiled, he had worried about Mark before the game. Jackson is likely to play with a small lineup. Unexpectedly, the warriors were really forced into this step.

"Yes, when a person is cornered, he can do anything. But his small lineup is not completely small enough. Henson, though a little surprised, was not worried. When it comes to attacking each other, Henson is not targeting anyone......

"What do you mean? Not small enough? Now they are the tallest David on the field. Lee is only 2.06 meters! ”

"It's really not small enough, if it were me, I'd let Green play center."

At the time, Frank. Vogel thought Henson was joking. At that time, he didn't know that Draymond. What a brilliant performance Green will play at the Warriors' No. 5 position in the future......

The first offense after the start of the second half, the Warriors got it. Of course, it wasn't the three-pointer that scored the score, but Curry's beautiful layup.

This time, David. Lee lifted Horford to mid-range, while Green simply pulled West outside the three-point line.

After Curry broke through, he faced the empty basket and Paul, who was chasing after him, deliberately hit the opponent with his ass and then immediately threw it high to the basket.

Curry's layups are very smart, and he knows that he is not superior in athleticism and confrontation ability, so most of his layups are high-throwing boards. This type of layup allows Curry to score efficiently while suffering minimal physical contact.

It seems that Curry does play better in the small lineup than in the regular lineup.

After that, Clay. Thompson is also starting to make a difference. Draymond. Green's movement is very fast and the quality of the cover is quite high. His ability often makes you ignore that he is a mini inside line who is just over 2 meters tall.

Even Paul. George couldn't get rid of the entanglement with Green in the first place. Thompson had a split-second catch-and-shoot almost, but Henson was already out of hope for this defense.

For a catch-and-shoot of Thompson's calibre, a split second of space is more than enough.

George tried his best to block it, but the outcome was similar to what Henson had expected. The waves are splashing, and Klay hits a three-point shot!

"What a splash brother!"

"What?" Vogel scratched his head, he had heard Henson say too many unintelligible words today.

"Don't you think Curry and Thompson make the Nets look like a splash?"

"I'm not in the mood, I just know we're only 10 points ahead."

Indeed, the Warriors' firepower is indeed fierce. But Henson also said that Mark. Jackson's small lineup isn't thorough enough.

After five minutes of play, the Warriors had narrowed the gap to six points. Mark. Jackson was overjoyed, but at the same time mired in self-doubt.

He has always emphasized the interior offense, and as a result, he was beaten by the Pacers and couldn't find the north. He has always regarded the small lineup as a way to do it, but this no way has made the Warriors turn around.

In the first five minutes of the second half, Curry and Thompson, who had been given more space, were completely liberated. And Draymond. Green used the mobility of his perimeter players to disrupt the Pacers' defense time and time again. West's footsteps are fast on the inside. But first, West is also older, and second, Green is not a traditional inside line at all. Therefore, in terms of speed, West is at a disadvantage compared to Green.

On several occasions, Green was able to score just by hitting the basket with a rough and strong thrust.

Maybe after this game, Mark. Jackson will think about the higher viability of a small lineup. But now, he just wants to win the game!

"Continue to use your speed to impact the opponent's defense and replace our defense with an outside attack! The difference is only 6 points, and we have to take control of the situation! Remember, attack instead of defensive, and pour all your firepower out to me! ”

Mark. Jackson was clearly on his toes, and the last five minutes were more refreshing than all the time in the first half combined.

It turns out that the defending champion's defense can also be broken through. It turns out that it is possible to equalize the double-digit point difference without relying on interior offense. Through the close-up of the live camera, one discovers that Mark. Jackson's unstoppable expression returned.

He couldn't help but look at the bench opposite, the Chinese coach must be anxious now. But after seeing Henson's state, Mark. Jackson's countenance immediately darkened again.

There was no expression on Henson's face, no fear, no nervousness, no impatience. From his face, you can only see composure and calmness!

"Damn, less dead!" Mark. Jackson clenched his fists, going from a 15-point lead to a six-point lead, and it was clear who was in control of the situation.

Mark. Jackson didn't believe Henson wasn't nervous at all.

However, Henson really doesn't like to play as much as Bird. The reason why he is expressionless is because he is really sure of the game.

After the timeout, players from both sides returned to the court. Mark. Jackson craned his neck to see what had changed in Henson.

Just as he could see clearly the five people sent by Henson, the audience suddenly burst into violent cheers.

And at this time, Reggie on the commentary platform. Miller jerked to his feet.

"Small lineup, Coach Henson also sent his small lineup! Moreover, it is not one big and four small, but five small deaths! ”

Henson stood on the sidelines with his hands crossed to his chest with a serious face, and then Henson would let Mark . Jackson, look at what is called small enough!

This unconventional competition is really numb.
