Has figured it out? Cole: TJD and Kumingga G3 will enter the team rotation

May 10th, the Golden State Warriors are facing huge challenges in the intense NBA playoffs. The absence of star Stephen Curry has forced the team's tactical system to make major adjustments. Today, Warriors coach Cole was interviewed by the media after the team's training, revealing the team's key decisions in the next game.

When asked whether Kumingga and TJD would enter the team rotation in G3, Cole said: "Without Stephen, we are a completely different team. Now everything revolves around finding a new system, and Kumingga is definitely part of this system, and TJD has proved that he can play a role in this round of series!" These words undoubtedly opened a corner for the Warriors' future game strategy.

Looking back at the G2 game, Kumingga's performance was amazing. He made 8 of 11 shots in the game, 1 of 3 three-pointers and 1 of 4 free throws, efficiently scoring 18 points, plus 5 rebounds and 1 assist. Especially in the third quarter, he completed many wonderful dunks, and even dunked the Timberwolves' defensive champion Gobert, which made the audience excited. His outstanding performance has become a highlight of the Warriors' offensive end. Although the team eventually lost the game, Kumingga's performance allowed people to see his potential and value.

, and TJD also left a deep impression on people in G2. He played for 19 minutes on the bench and had extremely high offensive efficiency. He made all 6 shots, made 3 of 5 free throws, scored 15 points and 6 rebounds (including 2 frontcourt rebounds), and contributed 1 assist, 1 steal and 1 block. Although his plus-negative value is -15, his active fighting in the inside and excellent finishing ability provide important inside support for the Warriors. His presence also gives the Warriors more tactical choices in the interior when Curry is absent.

Curry's absence puts the Warriors' offensive and tactical system in a huge way. But Kumingga and TJD's outstanding performance in G2 gave Cole hope of changing the array. In the next G3, the two of them enter the rotation lineup, which will inevitably bring new vitality and changes to the Warriors. Their athleticism and positive game attitude may make up for the losses caused by Curry's absence.

For the Warriors, the next game is full of challenges. But as Cole said, the team is adjusting around the new system. The addition of Kumingga and TJD may become a key variable for the Warriors in this round of the series. Whether they can continue their outstanding performances and help the team move forward without Curry, let's wait and see.
