Cole made a great contribution to helping the Rockets drag into tiebreak! The most uncomfortable thing is that there is no answer to this question

The regular season ended with the Warriors and the Clippers' match. The two brothers met again in the first round of the playoffs and both joined the tiebreak battle. If the Clippers and Nuggets have a balanced strength and the two teams are expected to play to the final stage, then the series between the Rockets and the Warriors is a bit unexpected. After all, the Warriors have gained a 3-1 lead early, and now they have to return to the Rockets' home court to participate in the tiebreak battle. Whether psychologically or physically, the Warriors have natural disadvantages. The most important point is that coach Cole helped the Rockets create a three-high lineup that perfectly restrains themselves, and the difficulty of the Warriors' victory is increased sharply.

We pulled the timeline back to the G4 game. At the critical moment of the last quarter, Coach Cole waved his hand and asked the Warriors to implement the tactic of cutting Sea Kings. In just two rounds, Uduka decisively gave up Adams. It was from this moment that Uduka seemed inspired and finally remembered to use his best lineup to suppress the Warriors' inside line. Just like the Timberwolves next door, the Lakers did not have an inside line, so they kept rushing to the inside line. If G5 was the Warriors' tactical choice to give up, at that time, the Warriors must have wanted to win the game. Unfortunately, the Rockets had found a way to match their lineup, and the Warriors finally lost the G6 game.

It can be said that in this game, the Rockets really won a victory based on performance and tactics, which is of great benefit to the improvement of players' confidence. After all, this is the first time they have entered the playoffs in the post-Harden era. Experience must be reflected in actual combat. After 6 games, the Rockets, inspired by head coach Cole, began to increase Adams' playing time. Adams, who usually played for 13 or 4 minutes, directly soared to 31 minutes. Even if Coach Cole continued to use the tactic of cutting Sea Kings, Uduka remained unmoved. After the game, Adams made 9 of 16 free throws and successfully completed his task. When Adams and Shin Kyung played at the same time, the Rockets' net efficiency was 32.2. Faced with the Rockets' inside height, the Warriors completely lost themselves.

Chasing Dreams made 1 of 4 three-pointers, Butler made 1 of 6 three-pointers, Payton made 1 of 4 three-pointers, Hilder made 0 of 4 three-pointers, Posted made 1 of 4 three-pointers, and Podjemsky made 2 of 6 three-pointers. This is the answer given by the Warriors' shooters group. Even if Curry and Butler scored 56 points together, the Warriors still lost a key game. In other words, even in the tiebreak battle, the Rockets will still send three high-level lineups to limit the Warriors' inside line. The only chance for the Warriors to win is not Curry and Butler, but what kind of hit rate can the outside shooter give.

Facing the Rockets' inside height, the Warriors have lost two consecutive games, and the next is a life-and-death battle. Whoever loses will go home. However, the natural disadvantage of the inside makes the Warriors have no good way to deal with it. The Rockets' way to score is simpler. After all, every shot is closer to the basket. However, for the Warriors, what kind of shooting percentage they can play in three-pointers is the key to winning. The Warriors are now on the edge of the cliff, but the Rockets still have cards to play. Green's performance may become the Rockets' X factor. They can fully follow the situation on the court to make targeted adjustments. The lineup is deep enough, which is the Rockets' capital.

I originally thought that the Warriors could win the series without any suspense, but after G4, the Rockets seemed to have awakened. After all, they are the second in the West. If you give them a little chance, you may regret it. If the Warriors can win the game, it will be easy to say. If they lose the game, they will be on the pillar of shame. You should know that they once led their opponents 3-1.
