The Basketball Court Swordsman

"Coach Henson, are you really so confident of winning at the Barclays Center? In the last five games, the Brooklyn Nets have achieved five consecutive victories! In the five games, the Nets also defeated the Spurs and the Thunder. Such a strong team in the West. Is your assessment of the team's prospects a bit too optimistic?"

As expected, Berman didn't have any good fruits in his pocket, and he wanted to give Henson a good start as soon as he came up.

But Henson was not angry, not even a trace of unhappy expression. With a polite smile on his face, he looked like a gentleman. Of course, everyone who knows Henson knows that this guy is a bastard.

"Are you really so confident that the Nets can win at the Barclays Center? In the last twelve games, the Indiana Pacers have won twelve consecutive victories! In twelve games, the Pacers even defeated the Rockets and the Eagles. , Celtics, Heat and other major East and West teams. Are you too optimistic about your assessment of the New York team’s prospects?

Henson asked Berman with a smile. The difference was that Berman couldn't respond to Henson with a smile.

"However, the Pacers are fighting back to back today..."

"Last season, my team and I played countless rounds of back-to-back matches. But not once, we went home crying. Now it's just back-to-back, meaningless." Before Berman could finish his question, Henson "Quick answer" said.

With a relaxed smile, Henson followed the team into the player channel of the Barclays Center. Berman froze in place, gritted his teeth. He has been a reporter for so many years, and he has not been assaulted by any coach.

Although he had just faced the interview outside, Henson showed a confident appearance. But after walking into the locker room, the first thing Henson said to the players was: "Don't think that the game is over. The Brooklyn Nets this season is not easy to mess with!"

That's right, the Nets this season is not easy to mess with.

This summer, the Nets are spending big money. Although it failed to promote Howard to join, but to win Joe Johnson and renew Deron and Lopez, is enough to keep the Nets competitive in the East.

Deron naturally needless to say, Paul's old opponent. Although the peak has passed, it has already crossed the peak time of "eat and sleep playing Paul", but the decline in strength is not serious, and he is still one of the best point guards in the league. And this is also the biggest reason Berman believes that the Nets can win.

Brook Lopez, a player whose strength is greater than his fame. Although the movement of Lopez is a little slower, other than that, it is all good.

Height, wingspan, shooting, low post skills, defensive awareness, card position... Lopez is the kind of player who can kill the game in a tepid state!

And the most important signing of the Nets this summer, Joe Johnson, Henson is no stranger. As early as the confrontation with Larry Drew, Joe Johnson was one of the players that caused Henson the most headache. Although it turns out that the contract that Joe Johnson signed with the Hawks did have a premium.

But occasionally a few games, the "single king" can come up with a performance consistent with his worth.

The Nets don't have superstars, and their stars even seem to be a little too high. But once this team is united, the combat effectiveness is still not to be underestimated. Now, their record of 21 wins and 14 losses is the best proof of this.

Before the game started, on the sidelines, Henson also accepted a pre-match interview with eSPN reporters. What's different is that this time the reporter's question has nothing to do with the team, but the name of a basketball reporter was mentioned.

There is no doubt that this name is Mark Berman!

"...Mark Berman's remarks triggered turbulent quarrels between the media in New York and Indianapolis. What do you think of this matter? Do you think Berman's remarks make any sense?" Beauty reporter blinked With a glance, he signaled that Henson could start answering.

At the same time, Berman stared at the big screen very proudly. As a reporter, but was widely discussed before the game, Berman felt that he was a good one in New York!

"Wait...I know a lot of friends in the media, such as Reggie Miller, Charles Barkley, Sage, or even Christine Lederlow. But Mark Berman? Sorry, I don’t even know who this unknown **** is. So, I don’t care what he said. The only thing I care about now is how to make the team win the 13th game in a row!"

Henson returned to the sidelines to supervise the players to warm up after speaking, obviously not interested in this topic.

Berman felt the corners of his mouth twitching. As a public relations celebrity for the Knicks and the Nets, Berman thought he had a great status in New York. Unexpectedly, Henson was described as a nameless man!

No wonder 80% of the people in this league have no affection for Henson, that guy is a complete bastard!

Berman clenched his fists and waited for the game to end, and after the Nets won, he would definitely use the most difficult problem in the world to embarrass the Asian coach!

But Henson will not give Berman this opportunity. The biggest problem facing Henson today is the particularity of back-to-back combat. Although they played the Bobcats in the last game, the Pacers didn't take much effort. However, for the safety and health of the players, Henson decided to increase the playing time of the substitute players today to balance the playing time of the starting lineup and the rotation lineup.

But at this moment, Paul, who had shot a few groups of baskets, found Henson, saying that he needed a longer playing time!

"what!?"

"I want to fight a little longer today, boss." In Henson's surprised expression, Paul repeated his request again.

Henson looked at Paul, then turned to look at Deron Williams who was warming up in the other half. Well, it's probably because of him.

Deron in the peak period can crush most of the first positions in the league at the same time. Among the defenders facing the pinnacle of Deron, only the "French sports car" Tony Parker's data did not fall behind, but it was only flat.

Once, there was a popular saying among fans: "Paul ruled other point guards, and Deron ruled Paul!"

During the Hornets, Paul and Deron had played against each other 16 times, but Paul only won 4 of them! From the data point of view, Paul's efficiency is not high when facing Deron.

After coming out of the Hornets, Paul became more mature, but Deron showed signs of decline due to injuries.

Although the age of these two guys competing for beauty has long passed, Paul still seems to be unable to forget the shameful record.

"I know what you want, Chris. I can increase your playing time, but I need you to stay calm." Henson hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded slightly. He has confidence in Paul, just like before against Rondo, Paul was not blinded by anger, but turned anger into motivation.

So Henson believed that Paul could do the same this time.

"Don't worry, I'm here to help the team win!" Paul smiled, and then went on to warm up.

Deron Williams and Chris Paul, the two are bound to have one person today, are buried here!

Hit the first goal of the game in the evening!

The interior of the Barclays Center is shaken, and Chris Paul, the most powerful one-position defender in the league, is once again played by Deron!

Mark Berman shook his fist hard off the court, as excited as other New York fans.

But Henson just waved his hand slightly, thinking that Chris Paul would collapse like this?

No, Chris Paul of Indianapolis is a hundred times stronger than you think...
