Thompson left the Warriors stronger? The starting lineup has been greatly changed, and Kerr's new five-man lineup is exciting

After Thompson leaves the Warriors, the Warriors will have a big change in the starting lineup in the new season. Thompson will need to find a suitable player to replace him after his departure, and if nothing else, that player will most likely be Hield. Hield and Curry's backcourt partnership is good for the continuation of Kerr's offensive system, and they can still allow Hield and Curry to play off-ball crossover runs in the half-court offense to replicate some of Curry's and Thompson's style of play.

In addition, there is a high probability that Wiggins will be in the No. 3 position. But on the inside, maybe Kerr will make some changes. For example, Kyle Lee, who just joined the Warriors this offseason, may form an interior combination with Green. Lee Kyle can play the No. 4 position, and he is much taller than Green, the same height as Rooney. And Lee Kyle's arrival in the starting lineup will allow the Warriors to usher in a new five-man lineup.

The role played by Li Kaier is equivalent to that played by Iguodala at his peak. Iguodala can play well on the pitch and can act as a defensive stalwart. And the roles of Lee Kyle and Iguodala are extremely similar. So next season, we can expect the Warriors' five-man lineup to be on the court for a long time. And Kerr is very fond of using small centers, and Lee Kyle is a player who can play from the No. 1 to No. 5 position, and he can even hold the ball in the half-court attack to organize the attack.

And next season, the Warriors are also very luxurious in terms of bench rosters. They have players like Kuminga, Podemski, Payton Jr., etc. Overall, the Warriors' improvement on the defensive end next season is obvious, especially if the two of them can team up to form an interior combination, they can play their dominance on the defensive end.

Lee Kyle's defensive ability is something Rooney doesn't have. Whether it's Looney or Jackson Davis Jr., they can't defend the perimeter. And Lee Kyle can even guard beyond the three-point line. Therefore, after the Warriors strengthen on the defensive end in the new season, it is beneficial for them to play a lot of defensive counterattacks. Curry and Hield will get more easy shots. Overall, the Warriors' personnel changes next season are worth looking forward to. We're excited to see what kind of energy Kyle Lee will bring to the Warriors' system.
