The Basketball Court Swordsman

"Coach Henson, what is the state of the team? Are you ready for the next Eastern Conference Finals?"

On May 24, the day after the Miami Heat eliminated the New York Knicks, it was also the day after Henson and Vivek had dinner. In the training ground of the Conseco Arena, the usual media opening hours are ushered in.

At this time, the players are resting. Everyone accepted the reporter's interviews scattered, and Henson was no exception.

"The boys are in excellent form. They are not complacent about being promoted to the Eastern Finals. I am very pleased with this. We are ready to play at our own level in the Eastern Finals." Henson looked serious, and he was still in a good mood today. Not bad. Under Paul's reminder, no Pacers players will relax in training.

"Coach Henson! Last night, a reporter filmed you having dinner with one of the team’s shareholders, Vivik Ranadevi, and your long-time girlfriend is Vivik’s daughter. Is this news true? After this, a reporter seized the opportunity and put his microphone to Henson's mouth.

This news caused a big stir in the basketball circle as soon as it was exposed. Some media who hated Henson even called this incident "the reason why Coach Henson is so handsome and stable."

Henson thought that only the gossip reporters who were blocked in the morning were interested in this matter, but he did not expect even basketball reporters to join in the fun.

Faced with reporters' questions, Henson did not respond. There was really no response, and he didn't even look at the reporter, as if the reporter was a cloud of air!

"Uh... Coach Henson?" The reporter reminded, Henson still had no response. You know, when answering the last question about the state of the team, Henson still looked serious.

His actions are undoubtedly conveying a message to reporters-this is the basketball hall, and now it is the eve of the Eastern Conference Finals. My players and I will only answer questions related to basketball and the game!

Henson didn't want to distract the team before the Eastern Conference Finals because of anything, let alone something related to him. Therefore, he used his indifferent attitude to set an example for the players.

Seeing that a reporter was crippled, other people who originally wanted to mix up this rumors also changed their minds temporarily, just asking some questions related to basketball. After all, no one wants to be treated as air by their interviewees.

After half an hour, the media opening period finally ended. Henson waved his hand and asked the stadium security staff to clear the reporters out.

After a while, the noisy training ground became quiet again, leaving only the members of the coaching staff and the players sitting on the floor.

"Boss, I didn't expect you to become a focal point because of this kind of gossip news." Paul and Henson joked, and a group of reporters rushed in and asked themselves a bunch of gossip questions. Even Paul had his first experience.

"That's right, at least seven or eight reporters just asked me if I knew anything about your girlfriend." Stephenson also agreed.

"Then how did you answer him, Lance?" Henson didn't look angry, but discussed with the players.

In fact, the players are also very curious about this matter. They all know that the boss’s girlfriend is a young college student, but people didn’t expect that this college student is actually the daughter of the team owner! How did he hook up with the boss' daughter? The players also want to know.

But because he was afraid of being scolded by Henson, everyone didn't mention it all morning. Now that Paul spoke first, everyone was bold enough.

"How to answer? I told them that I don't know anything about Coach Henson, including questions such as how big his underwear is. Don't ask me in the future." Stephenson replied with exaggerated expression, causing laughter in the training hall. full.

Henson smiled and waved his hand. He didn't mind the players talking about their gossip. In fact, even if the players do not talk, Henson will take the initiative to talk to them.

"Okay, guys. I know, everyone is very curious about this. In fact, when I met An Jiali, I didn't know that she was Vivek's daughter. Of course, Vivek also returned I'm not a team shareholder, so in a strict sense, I didn't have the boss's daughter. Because I had dealt with her father before he became the owner of the team."

Seeing that the players were listening with expectation, Henson continued: "Just like other couples, we live a normal life. When we are busy, we are busy with each other, and when we have the opportunity, we are tired of traveling around together. So not disclosing her identity is not afraid that the media will know that she is the daughter of the team owner, but just don’t want to affect her life at school. So, the whole thing is that simple, there is nothing to be curious about. If you return it I want to know about other things. After the season is over, I will have a party at home. At that time, you can ask anything you want. But now, guys. We should put this focus on the game."

After Henson finished speaking, Paul stood up comprehensively, "I heard what the boss said, and we are almost resting. Let's continue training! Miami people, but threatened to bring us down!"

"They don't think about it!"

"There are too many teams that want to bring us down, and none of them can succeed yet."

"Thinking that if you beat the New Yorkers, you can beat us? Think beautiful!"

The players stood up one by one, reinvested in everyone's individual training, and Paul gave Henson a nod.

That's right, even if Paul doesn't mention it, Henson will tell the players all about it. The reason is simple. This incident itself is nothing shameful. As long as everyone's curiosity is eliminated, there is no fear of delaying training and competition.

And now, under Paul's "assist" again, the players have obviously dispelled unnecessary curiosity and focused on training and competition.

Yes, even the Big Three of the Green Army that broke out failed to defeat the Pacers. How can a piece of gossip news be achieved?

On May 27, 2012, the 11-12 season NBA Eastern Conference finals officially kicked off at the Conseco Arena!

Before the game started, Barkley and Kenny Smith sitting on the commentary stage were still discussing Henson and An Jiali.

"Did you know? Actually, this is nothing new. When Phil Jackson and Jenny Buss went out of the scandal, reporters also reported crazy. But what happened? These things were nothing new at all. Did not stop Jackson from winning the championship! Basketball is basketball, life is life! I am here to watch the Pacers play against the Heat, not to watch the reality show!" Barkley made no secret of his views. He is not interested in who Henson’s girlfriend is. However, in the past few days, the daily reports and the full release of the news made Barkley feel a little sick.

"On this matter, my opinion is the same as you rarely see, Charles. It seems that Coach Henson thinks the same way. These days, he hasn't dealt with reporters at all, but has led the team training wholeheartedly. It seems that Miamians cannot expect Coach Henson to be distracted by this."

Spoelstra, who was supervising the players' warm-up, sneezed. I don't know who said he was behind his back...expect Henson to be distracted? Spoelstra has never had such a fluke. This is the Eastern Conference Finals, and the guy Henson pretended to be one of ten ways to kill the Heat, not a **** scandal.

Only those journalists who were bored thought that Henson would be distracted.

Of course, Spoelstra wanted to kill the Pacers too. And this plan will be fulfilled from today!

After half an hour, the warm-up is over. The Heat’s starting five stepped onto the court, Henson frowned slightly, Spoelstra gave him a surprise, which was much bigger than the surprise the reporters gave him.

"Changed? Coach Spoelstra actually changed! He put Sean Battier on the starting lineup and gave up the use of Joe Anthony! Spoelstra sent out for a freshman and a junior. A big and four small lineup!" Barkley admitted, he did not expect the Heat will change.

• On-the-spot changes are a tactical taboo. No one except Henson and Popovich would do it. What's more, the Heat, which owns the Big Three, should be the one with the superior strength, and should have remained the same. However, no one thought that Spoelstra would suddenly make such a move.

In fact, Shane Battier is not his first start in the playoffs. When the Heat played the Magic in the first round, Battier was the team's starting power forward, but that was because Bosh was missing due to injury and Battier was driven off the shelf by the duck.

But things are different now. Bosh is healthy and the Heat can put up a regular lineup. But Spoelstra didn't. He still sent Shane Battier and pushed Bosh into the fifth position. A major and a junior, Spoelstra intends to use such a lineup to deal with Henson!

"What's this change? Did Spoelstra forget how badly he lost in the last game of the regular season?" Henson curled his lips. Starting with Battier could indeed put an end to Henson's "recklessness". "Dafa. But again, Battier's inside line is also a disadvantage, which Henson has already practiced during the regular season.

Before everyone thought about Spoelstra's ideas, the game had begun. Horford fought for basketball from Bosh, Henson made a few gestures and motioned to Paul to go directly to the Heat inside to play!

Let Battier top the four position, this decision has been proven to be a mistake during the regular season! Henson doesn't care what Spoelstra is thinking, since you gave me such a loophole, then I will use it!

However, when West sat in the low post and received a pass from Paul, people only found out. Spoelstra did not let Battier play the fourth position, but let James sit in the fourth position! It is not Battier who is fighting West, but James who is a strange force!

"Um...that makes sense." Henson touched his chin, the Filipino is not stupid. In his mind, I am afraid that there are 10 thousand ways to defeat the Pacers...
