Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni names his small-ball lineup ‘South Beach Five’
火箭版的死亡五小陣容 D'Antoni: "South Beach Five"
The Houston Rockets earned a massive 112-108 Game 4 victory over the Golden
State Warriors that effectively saved their season.
火箭在Game 4以112-108拿下重要的勝利，擊敗勇士，讓季後賽之路不至於陷入絕境。
Like he did in Game 3, Rockets head coach Mike D’Antoni rolled with the
small-ball lineup of James Harden, Chris Paul, Austin Rivers, Eric Gordon,
and P.J. Tucker to close the game.
就如同在Game 3的時候一樣，火箭總教練Mike D'Antoni把他們的五小擺上陣，James
Harden，Chris Paul，Austin Rivers，Eric Gordon跟P.J. Tucker來完結比賽。
During the postgame presser, D’Antoni casually and jokingly gave a nickname
to his version of the death lineup: South Beach Five.
在賽後記者會，D'Antoni很輕鬆以開玩笑的方式稱他們的死亡五小為"South Beach
Five"。

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr wasted no time in rolling out his
Hamptons Five lineup of Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, Stephen Curry, Klay
Thompson, and Andre Iguodala at the onset of the series. Now, D’Antoni
countered Kerr’s first move by deploying the Rockets’ version of the
daunted lineup.
在這西區準決賽一開始，勇士總教練沒有浪費時間，馬上就擺出他們的死亡五小"Hamptons
Five"，Kevin Durant，Draymond Green，Stephen Curry，Klay Thompson跟Andre
Iguodala。而現在，D'Antoni則是用火箭版的死亡五小來反擊Kerr的招式。
D’Antoni said he prefers that small-ball lineup because of how they can
guard better by doing a lot of switching. He added that deploying a big man
could be ineffective given how he is always on the perimeter anyway.
D'Antoni說他偏好用小球陣容是因為這樣可以做很多的換防，可以防守的更好，他更說加
入一個大個子可能不會更好更有效率，因為他本來就著重在外圍。
This proved to be effective as the Rockets were able to hold Golden State’s
shooters in check for both Games 3 and 4 in Houston. The defending champs
shot just 8-of-33 from downtown in Game 4.
這個方式證明有效，火箭在Game 3及Game 4都有辦法拖住勇士的射手群，在Game 4衛冕軍
的三分線命中率掉到8-33。
This is also the second straight game they forced a bad night from at least
one of the Splash Brothers. They held Klay Thompson to just 11 points on
5-of-15 shooting in Game 4, including 1-of-6 from beyond the arc. Stephen
Curry arguably had the worst game of his career in Game 3 with 17 points on
an abysmal 7-of-23 shooting from the field.
這也是連續第二場他們讓浪花兄弟的至少一位沒有正常表現。Klay Thompson在Game 4只拿
下11分，命中率是5-15，三分命中率更是低到1-6。Stephen Curry的Game 3毫無疑問是生
涯最慘的一役，只拿下17分，命中率也是悽慘的7-23。
This lineup has made it difficult for the Warriors to get the Splash Brothers
clean looks from deep, as the constant switching gives them little time to
rise up for their 3-pointers. Over the past two games, Curry and Thompson
have shot just a combined 9-of-35 from deep.
火箭的陣容讓勇士沒辦法幫浪花兄弟在外線有很好的視野，因為不斷的換防讓他們沒有很
多時間可以起身投三分。在過去這兩場，Curry跟Thompson的三分球命中率只有9-35。
