The Basketball Court Swordsman

"Henson Joe, have dinner with George Armani? This world is going to die for the fuck."

The next day, when people saw photos of Henson and Armani having dinner in a restaurant on the news, almost everyone responded with this.

Giorgio Armani, a fashion master, an old-school gentleman, and an artist in the eyes of people. Have dinner with Henson Joe, the bastard, liar, and bad guy in people's eyes?

There is no doubt that this is an incredible thing. These are two people in completely different worlds, and there is no reason to associate an old gentleman with a bastard.

Regarding the meeting between the two, the media have divergent opinions.

Some people say that Henson is hosting Giorgio Armani for his boss and father-in-law Vivek. Others say that the two had dinner at the same restaurant purely because they met by chance.

"In the case of Mr. Giorgio Armani's extreme reluctance, Henson Joe took the initiative to express his wish to have a meal with Mr. Armani." A tabloid reporter even wrote, as if he was on the scene at the time.

Seeing these endless reports, 100 versions of reports can be compiled, Giorgio Armani himself naturally laughed from ear to ear.

Not to mention how these media commented on Henson, but looking at the entire league, going out for dinner with people can attract so much exposure and discussion of the head coach, who else?

Exposure and commercial value, those guys will never understand...

"Spoken person!?" At this time, in Henson's office, Stevens looked at Henson with a face of ghost.

He can guarantee that all media speculations are not exaggerated by reality!

"A spokesperson for Armani suits? I have never heard that they would look for a contemporary spokesperson for basketball coaches." Stevens looked at Henson in an unbelievable way. He saw a lot of commercialization of players, and commercialization of coaches. The first time I heard.

"You've seen it now, and believe me, when I heard the news, my expression was not much easier than you, Brad. But I think it's a matter of getting what you need. We can all benefit each other, then Why not?" Henson opened his hands and threw all the fashion magazines and tabloids he bought this morning into the trash can.

Stevens also put a smile away, he knew what Henson meant-it was working time.

"I just got the report from the team doctor. You can continue to rest assured that there is no injury hazard for everyone." Before Henson asked, Stevens reported the situation of the team.

Working with Henson for a long time, the coaching staff of the Pacers have a trait, they can talk nonsense and never talk nonsense.

"Jimmy Butler's recent three-point shooting percentage has improved again. Fraser said he learned very quickly, and he may be able to increase the percentage of his shots from beyond the three-point line in the future."

"The next game is our last game in January. We will play against the Detroit Pistons at home. The Pistons are still the same. Greg Monroe and Ronnie Stuckey are the core of the offense. Just strangle these two points. , The Pistons is nothing terrible. In the past two days, we can set up defensive training based on the opponent's second and fourth offenses."

"Um..." After listening to Stevens, Henson nodded slightly, "The Detroit Pistons, the last time they played against them, was Paul's first game since he returned from a ban. To be honest, they are simply unbearable. Hit. If nothing happens, we should be able to win the 21st game at home and then..."

"Then, we are about to hit the Rockets' 22-game winning streak, Henson! Haha, this is really **** crazy!" Stevens smiled excitedly. When he first came to coach in the NBA, he I never thought I would become one of the creators of the league's second-longest winning streak.

"Yeah, 22 consecutive victories, the longest winning streak in league history except for the Lakers' 33 consecutive victories. And we are only one step away from this longest record. But it's as if God arranged it. After playing the Pistons, our opponent is the Miami Heat. In other words, if we want to win the 22nd game, we must kill the Miami Heat." Henson said, frowning. No one can relax their mindset before facing the Miami Heat.

Stevens's smile gradually disappeared. Yes, the 22-game winning streak happened to run into the Heat. "This may be the legendary, fatal encounter."

In addition to the news of Henson and Armani having dinner, the hottest topic in the NBA recently is undoubtedly the fateful duel between the Pacers and the Heat. This topic is like a dog-blooded eight o'clock TV series, few people in the entire basketball circle don't know. Everyone knows that the Pacers are about to tie their 22-game winning streak, and the condition to tie this record is that they must defeat the powerful old rival of the Miami Heat!

Therefore, during the media opening hours during today's training period, Henson would not be surprised to see so many reporters gathered in the training ground of the Bankers Life Arena.

? As always, in addition to the Indianapolis local media, most reporters are almost one-sided and more optimistic about the Miami Heat. They believe that the Heat will act as the "hero" and stand up to end the Pacers' "evil dragon" raging the league.

After all, the Heat are now strong and in good condition. In the past half month, 5 of 6 games have been won. Of course, the media believe that the biggest reason why the Heat can win the game is: the last time the Pacers defeated the Heat without Wade, and now, the Miami Heat have a neat lineup!

So, as soon as the reporters rushed into the training ground, Henson felt as if a bunch of annoying flies had come in.

"What do you think of the strength of the Miami Heat? How likely are they to prevent you from completing your 22-game winning streak?"

"At the 22-game winning streak facing the well-organized Miami Heat, will you feel the pressure doubled?"

During the training break, reporters have been asking questions related to the Miami Heat. In his own training ground, he has been asked how the Heat are doing, let alone Henson, even the Pacers players are not happy.

More polite players like Horford and Leonard will answer in an official tone. When encountering a bad temper, such as Anderson and Stephenson, they will directly give reporters a disgusting look, and then push the microphone away.

No way, when the reporters next to you open their mouths and shut their mouths, it's "how about the Heat" and "how about after Wade comes back from injury". The players will always have a feeling of "I was underestimated".

Did these stupid reporters make a mistake? We are about to tie our 22-game winning streak, not the Miami Heat!

? After experiencing the friction in the Eastern Conference finals last season, Henson himself didn't like the Heat, and he knew that the league was more partial to the Heat. So today, he does not intend to leave any face to these media. What the players dare not say, let him be the "villain".

Therefore, Henson called all the reporters around him, claiming that he would answer all the questions. However, before the reporters gathered before asking any questions, Henson said to himself.

"I want to be blunt so you can figure it out. Gentlemen and ladies, you are all **** in the wrong place! Our next opponent is the Detroit Pistons, and you are in the Indianapolis bank. Home life arena! To pay attention to the Miami Heat, you can take a taxi to the airport now and buy a ticket to the South Coast! Here, no one will answer any of your questions about the Miami Heat! Because I am sure that you too I can’t ask anything other than the Heat, so I announce that today’s media opening period is over!"

After Henson finished speaking, he waved to the arena security staff and asked them to blast the media out of the training hall.

The reporters stayed where they were in astonishment, staring at each other. and many more? What is this guy doing? Drive the reporter away?

"You have no right to do this, Coach Henson Joe! The opening hours of the media are approved by the league, and your team is obliged to accept interviews and filming!" A fat reporter waved his fist in protest.

Henson turned his head and looked at the clamoring reporter. His sharp eyes immediately made the reporter lower his head slightly without imposing aura.

"Tell me, Mr. Reporter, what is this place!?" Henson yelled, and the whole training hall immediately fell silent, as if the teacher lost his temper on the podium when he was in school, and the classroom would suddenly quiet down.

"Silver...Banker Life Arena." The fat reporter replied hesitantly.

"Very well, in the Banker's Life Arena, you said it, the league said it. Who said it? Henson Joe said it! And I just said it, the interview time is over!"

Henson turned angrily, and the reporter left the training ground under the action of the arena security staff.

On the second floor of the training ground, Bird saw the following scene and couldn't help shaking his head. He blasted the reporter away during the opening hours of the media. He promised that within half an hour, the call from the Union Office would come.

But Bird doesn’t blame Henson. If someone compliments your direct competitor in front of you, and then asks you to say good things about the competitor, they will be dissatisfied if they say it’s not good...unless The brain is sick, otherwise no one would like this kind of thing.

Therefore, Bird supports Henson. And as long as there is a victory, there is no fear of offending reporters. After the Pacers have won their 22-game winning streak, those guys will line up to enter the training ground for interviews.

And what Henson is best at is to win!

"Go ahead, Henson. Let those who look down on us suffer!" Byrd muttered to himself, and then walked to his office.

He is ready to answer the "complaint call" of the Union Office.
