Montgomery's head was racing, and suddenly a light flashed through him.

"Matt, is it okay for you to play in the number four position?"

Montgomery called Matt Barnes up and unexpectedly made a special lineup rotation.

Matt Barnes was also stunned, and didn't understand how the head coach would replace him at this time? However, his good professionalism still reacted immediately, nodded and said: "There should be no problem with defense and card positioning." ”

"Very good, remember how we trained in the team? The Warriors now need to speed up and make three-pointers, and when they get on the court, on the one hand, they will increase mobility for the Warriors, and on the other hand, they will help Yang Di open up space and give the ball to Yang Di to play alone, and he has the ability to finish and take away the game. ”

"Okay."

Matt Barnes immediately understood the head coach's intention, Yang Di played the No. 5 position, which is to completely hand over the ball to Yang Di to solve the game, the Warriors changed to a large and four small lineup, and the defensive end has been controlled by others, so it is better to punch the situation directly from the offensive end.

"It's crazy." Matt Barnes spoke everyone's mind.

Montgomery is equivalent to sacrificing a lineup of 1 big and 4 small, and on the historical stage of the finals, there has never been a team that has made such a change.

Facing the Heat last year, Montgomery did not make such a lineup change because of O'Neal's presence.

Such a change of formation has undoubtedly caused heated discussions, the Warriors are not without an inside line, but they are a little weaker than Tyson Chandler, who has already left the game, and in this way, almost all the success or failure is pressed on Yang Di.

Yang Di narrowed his eyes slightly, but his heart suddenly moved.

It's not that the Warriors haven't used a lineup of 1 big and 4 small before, in fact, the offensive effect is still okay, the Cavaliers' interior line is tall and slow, and the two teams are tantamount to attacking each other's shortcomings.

"Interesting." He cocked his mouth and stood silently on the sidelines.

The Cavaliers served on the sidelines, and Yang Di approached Da Z, who was a real height of 2.21 meters, more than ten centimeters taller than Yang Di, and Yang Di stood on his side, obviously shorter.

Matt Barnes's height of 2.01 meters, although his strength is not bad, is definitely worse than the tendon-fleshed Gooden, not to mention that Gooden is 7 centimeters taller than him and weighs above him.

The Warriors' interior line suddenly took on a heavy defensive load.

After James received the ball, he keenly grasped this and wanted to break through Danny Granger head-on.

But at this time, Danny Granger was in excellent defensive condition, and he didn't give an inch, blocking James' breakthrough in one or two rounds.

James began to block with Gooden and misplaced Matt Barnes.

At this time, I found out the strength of the Warriors lineup, the speed of player rotation defense is very fast, and because there are many forwards, after the rotation, it is not a mismatch at all, Danny Granger also has a height of 2.03 meters, but if he is stuck in the position, he can basically complete the task.

The Warriors' defense went all out to shrink the inside, James missed a jumper, and Yang Di grabbed the rebound.

The Warriors immediately launched a counterattack, Matt Barnes, Danny Granger and other originally shrunken forwards rushed to the frontcourt, and Yang Di took a small step and immediately hoisted a long pass to Fisher, who was already halfway.

The Warriors are extremely fast, they are all good at random battles, Fisher dribbled steadily to the three-point line, and found that this wave of fast break worked very well, and the Cavaliers didn't have time to form a positional defense, he passed back to Yang Di who came from the three-point line.

Yang Di leaned over to accelerate the dribble and passed Drew Gooden in one step, all four of the Warriors were on the outside, and the big Z defense was particularly dazed, and followed Gooden to pinch the only interior line on the Warriors who seemed to be on the court - Yang Di.

Yang Di jumped up and passed to Granger under the empty basket, and Granger dunked.

"It's not just 1 big and 4 small, it's also a lineup of 1 inside and 4 shooters!" At this time, Stan Van Gundy, the new head coach of the Magic who was far away in Orlando and watching the game, exclaimed.

Today is the celebration dinner for Stan Van Gundy to sign with the Magic, and Stan Van Gundy will replace Bryan Hill, the Magic's head coach for the past two years, as the new head coach of the Magic for the next season. Magic operations president Audis Smith has always admired the big Van Gundy, and Van Gundy has been eye-to-eye with him when he was in the Heat, but now that the Heat are losing ground and Pat Riley has failed to build a team, Van Gundy has also become a bird and has become the new head coach in the Magic.

This time, no one will dictate him, and no one will arbitrarily deprive him of his position as head coach.

At the banquet, the game between the Warriors and the Cavaliers was played, and as the head coach who coached Yang Dee, Stan Van Gundy had mixed feelings.

When Yang Di first entered the league, he didn't like this thorny player very much, and Yang Di and Grant clashed, which he didn't like. But Pat Riley likes him very much, coupled with the background of Chinese players, so he has to try to use Yang Di, Yang Di is in his hands, serving as a Heat substitute inside, competing with Haslem for playing time, rookie season, Van Gundy actually suppressed Yang Di's appearance.

He really didn't expect that Yang Di, who was like a blue-collar worker, would eventually become a supergiant in the alliance, and Yang Di's progress was too great.

Whether he admits it or not, Yang Di is indeed the most bedrock player he has ever seen, Yang Di's dominance on the inside is completely comparable to Shaquille O'Neal at his peak, Big Van Gundy actually likes to use big men, and the ideal team in his mind should be a super inside line, with a group of good outside players.

"Dwight Howard is going to be a player like him, right?" Otis Smith said with a smile that he agrees with Van Gundy's basketball philosophy, and the team will follow Van Gundy's vision to combine and configure.

"Montgomery inspired me that we can actually use the Warriors' big four lineup, Dwight Howard is learning the low-post offensive technique, and if we also have a No. 4 position that can open up space, we will definitely be able to complete the last piece of the puzzle."

"The number four position that opens up the space? Yang Di? Otis Smith joked.

Stan Van Gundy was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and both of them burst out laughing.

"I have an idea."

After laughing for a long time, Stan Van Gundy stopped and said what he thought.

"There aren't many No. 4 players in the league who can shoot, and even fewer No. 4 players who can shoot well, and last year Ray Allen joined the Golden State Warriors, and I thought of the scorer who stayed with the Seattle SuperSonics."

"Rashad Lewis?" Otis Smith muttered, "A very reasonable suggestion indeed. ”
