The Basketball Court Swordsman

Chapter 140: : Two bottles of poison

The Pacers defeated the Heat, and they defeated the Heat in a major reversal, which is undoubtedly an unexpected result for most fans.

Charles Barkley was very much looking forward to seeing Henson's despair, but he could only watch Henson once again clasping Sarger's shoulders, revealing that incredible expression.

"This doesn't explain any problems, because Dwyane Wade's injury has greatly reduced the Heat's combat effectiveness. I say this, will it make those who expect me lose feel better?"

"No, Coach Henson, I guess even if you have said that, they will still use this to interpret the game." After hearing Henson's answer, Sag didn't know why he felt so enjoyable.

It may be because he has been biased by Popovich, and any conventional answer pattern can no longer stimulate Sag's nerves. Sague’s favorite thing to do now is to listen to Popovich and Henson Joe Husse, which seems to have become one of his little hobbies.

Although Henson is particularly arrogant in front of the camera, privately, he still knows why this game can be won. So after returning to the locker room, Henson gave Fraser a warm hug without saying a word.

"I don't know what to do without you!"

This shooting coach, with gray beard and hair, only joined the team the next day and indirectly brought him a game victory. Can Henson not be pleased?

"It's the players who understand it well, and this trick is not always effective. In order to prevent this from happening again, the most important thing is to make the players feel good in training. Don't worry, I will do it in the future. Take over the shooting training of the players with full authority. I guarantee that your players will always have fire in their hands when they come on the court."

Henson patted Frazier **** the shoulder, although the fans didn't even know these small changes in the coaching staff. But in fact, whether a team can succeed or not has a lot to do with all these people who silently pay behind them. Henson knew this when he was a scout and assistant coach.

At the subsequent press conference, Henson was almost not confused by reporters' questions. In this game, the Pacers once again played an all-people performance, so the reporter's questions rarely focused on a certain player, but radiated to everyone.

A second, Henson was still answering the question "How to evaluate Paul's 18+9 performance in the audience". In the next second, people may ask him "How many points will you give Chris Anderson's performance?" "

Although this made Henson's head a bit confusing, it made him have to think about the performance of every player over and over again. But overall, Henson is surrounded by these problems and makes him very proud.

Because it means that in the lineup he has painstakingly built, no one is redundant.

Chris Paul's overall control, George's increasingly powerful scoring ability, Anderson's wildness to the Pacers penalty area, Matthews' solid three-point output, Leonard's stunning four-seater defensive ability... .

Although the running-in of this team is not yet fully formed, it already has something that Henson imagined.

The victory over the Miami Heat is just the beginning of this magical season...

The day after the game ended, Henson was still in his hotel in Miami. Since the Pacers will continue to fight away in the next game, Henson decided not to return to Indianapolis. Instead, he flew directly to Boston at noon today to minimize the number of flights the players took and save energy as much as possible.

As soon as he got up, Henson turned on the TV. Listening to sports news every morning has become his life habit.

Sure enough, as soon as he turned on the TV, Henson heard a sports reporter in Miami say: "We lost the game because of one less Dwyane!"...

Henson shook his head. These guys are so uncreative now that they don't even make excuses.

After packing himself up, Henson went down to the dining room for breakfast. At this time, many players and coaches were already there, including his assistant, Frank Vogel.

Vogel watched the Celtics game video on his tablet while eating cereal on his plate. This is Frank Vogel, a defensive master who will immediately become extremely nervous because of the approach of the next game even if he just won the game.

"Frank, can't you let yourself relax? Less than 8 hours before the end of the last game, you started working again."

After staring at the video on Vogel's tablet, Henson felt his head was big.

"I also want to relax, but our opponent is the Boston Celtics after all! The league arranges for us to continue to play against the Eastern power, which is really worthy of us." Vogel did not leave his eyes even when he was talking to Henson. Half of the screen.

Henson put two poached eggs and a sausage on his plate and sat next to Vogel, "What's wrong with the Celtics, we didn't beat them last season. Hey, you know why, we and Kay Isn’t the Ert’s game broadcast live nationwide?"

"Huh?" Vogel looked at Henson in confusion, "Is there any relationship between the national broadcast and the game? The Celtics have recently won four consecutive victories!"

"Of course it does matter! Not live broadcast in the United States means that this game is no longer a focus battle. Why not a focus battle? Because today's Boston Celtics no longer have the dominant power of the year! Their four-game winning streak cannot Explain any problem, the Celtics will have a good record in the early stages of the game every year, and then slip as the season progresses. The reason is simple-this team is too old!" Henson spread his hands and crossed a slice. The fried egg took a bite.

"Last season, the Celtics were old enough. Who knows this season, the Celtics have hardly made any adjustments and are still playing with an old lineup. This shrinking season's intensive schedule will be right for this. A huge challenge for the old guys, so don’t expect the Celtics to hand over a beautiful report card in the regular season. They are no longer the unmatched Celtics. The Celtics’ dominance in the East is already windy. Shaking rain and falling. And we, we are younger and more impactful, we are the new owners of the East. Now racking our brains to think about how to deal with the game, it should be the champion coach of Rivers."

Seeing Henson eating eggs leisurely, Vogel was still uneasy. After all, the concept of "the Celtics are very strong" is deeply ingrained in most people's hearts. Even if it is not true, people are subconsciously willing to believe. Just like the previous "Texas three delusions", the Rockets are strong, the Spurs are very old, and the Mavericks are weak.

But Henson doesn't care about any previous honors, and he will not blind his thinking because of inertial thinking, he only pays attention to the present. And now this Celtics, I am afraid that it is already strong outside.

"In short, Frank. Don't always be so nervous. When the team is training this afternoon, you should relax with the players. Don't worry, I will not underestimate the enemy, but I will not inexplicably pressure the team. "

After enlightening his assistant, Henson continued to work hard to start his "nourishing" breakfast. It seemed that Henson really no longer feared such ancient giants as the Celtics.

"Nervous? Why? Because of the heavy snow in Boston?" The day before the game, when all the Pacers arrived at Boston's Logan International Airport, Henson threw a relaxed expression on the reporters as soon as he came up.

And as Henson said, on the other side, in the Celtics training ground, Doug Rivers, the champion coach who once looked down upon Henson at all, was nervous. Because for the Celtics today, the Pacers are indeed a very difficult opponent.

"He's not nervous? Don't listen to his nonsense! Henson Joe is a despicable villain. Last season he said that he was going to take a rotation. The result was an unscrupulous lie for victory!" Speaking of Henson, River There was a bunch of not-so-good memories in Si's mind instantly.

The completely different state of the two coaches reflects their attitude towards this game. Henson didn't underestimate the enemy, but wanted to face it with a normal heart. Rivers was obviously a bit "excessive."

The Boston media said that "arrogant Chinese coaches will return to the cost of bleeding in Boston." The basis is that the Pacers cannot simultaneously contain the three giants.

"They can put heavy soldiers on Ray Allen, but then Pierce will use his superb scoring methods to torture the Pacers' defense, and vice versa. Now there are two bottles of poison in front of Coach Henson, just look at him. Choose which bottle to drink."

Henson also saw this report, and the metaphor of "two bottles of poison" made him very interesting.

So after reading this report, Henson pulled Paul George and Leonard into the video analysis room. No one knows what exactly the three of them discussed in the room that afternoon...
