The Basketball Court Swordsman
Chapter 351: : Fantastic facts
When the old Drew lost control of the game, when Henson regained control of the game. This duel in the Bankers’ Life Arena actually lost its suspense.
Stephenson's powerful offense made Jenkins impossible to defend. His speed and height disadvantages were infinitely magnified in front of the angry Stephenson.
Finsen moved all his energy on the streets of Harlem to the basketball court. He took a step back shot after a stray shot, a three-point long shot after a catch, a breakthrough layup, a violent dunk, a tough defense, Wonderful steals... In the second half of this game, Stephenson showed all the qualities he possessed.
In the first half, the fighting spirit and anger aroused by Shelvin Mark made Henson all his brains on Jenkins.
Seeing Stephenson's score and the gap between the two teams are going to be 20, old Drew can't sit still and wait for death. He took Shervin Mark again, hoping that the defensive defender could teach the hasty Stephenson a lesson. But when Mark played, Henson replaced Chris Paul!
Now it's not Larry Drew that followed Henson for substitution, but Henson in turn directed Larry Drew for substitution! In this way, the Hawks starting point guard Jeff Teague didn't get any chance of performance. Old Drew's chaos was completely messed up, and all this was just because of a Livingston who was not in his plan! Just because of a... "waste".
Shelvin Mark's defense is good, but not good enough to stop Chris Paul. As soon as the energetic Paul came up, he chopped up 6 points in a row, watching the Pacers’ scoring rise, while the Eagles’ scoring did not move for a long time, Drew and his players’ moods also changed. The excitement at the beginning became desperate.
The Pacers played more and more smoothly, after the three quarters, the original anxious score became 83 to 63. At the end of halftime, the Pacers only led by 4 points, and now, the difference has been widened to 20 points!
During the break, Henson was interviewed by reporters. Of course, most of the questions are about Livingston.
"I don't know what Coach Dao Lu thinks of Sean, but if it was me, I would definitely not underestimate him."
Henson laughed at the camera, and on the commentary stage, Bill Walton hadn't said a word for a long time...
In the critical fourth quarter, the Eagles' bench lineup finally showed off, and Mark, Scott, and Jenkins blossomed inside and outside. But the defending champion did not let the Eagles linger for too long. At the last moment, Henson emphasized the inside offense and re-showed his advantage in the inside. Although the perimeter continued to beat the iron, but with Horford and "Birdman" Anderson's twin towers, the Pacers also scored three offensive rebounds in succession, playing a second offense three times. Today, Stephenson, who has scored 20 points, 5 assists and 6 rebounds, completed a key steal with 2:08 left in the game, ruining the Eagles' final hope for points.
In the end, the Pacers defeated the Atlanta Hawks with a 106-88 at home. After losing to the Chicago Bulls in the last game, Henson successfully avoided losing streak and scored 62 wins and 8 losses! The Pacers still have 12 games to play. They only need to win 10 of them to tie the Bulls' record of 72 wins!
Now, no one will say that there is no hope for the Pacers!
Today, the Pacers players are still playing very averagely, and they are not confused because of the stubborn resistance of the Eagles. Chris Paul and Stephenson played as long as planned. Henson not only saved the players' physical strength and avoided the risk of injury, but also won the victory!
With 72 wins while taking turns, Henson knew exactly what he was planning!
Today, Stephenson, who played 24 minutes and scored 20 points, 5 assists, 6 rebounds and 2 steals, was named the best of the game by T.NT. Thanks to John Jenkins's immature defense and Drew's wrong lineup, Stephenson was able to make a turnaround despite his poor performance in the first half.
Therefore, after the game, the reporters around Stephenson are also the most. But what makes Henson happy is that Sean Livingston, a guard who has been away from the NBA for almost three months, is also favored by reporters.
Although Livingston only played 11 minutes today, he never scored after scoring 7 points. But everyone who knows the ball knows that Livingston's role today is not reflected in the data. If it were not for his sudden appearance, Larry Drew and his Hawks would not be in a mess. If it were not for his sudden appearance, there would be no subsequent scoring performance by Stephenson.
This time, there was no sympathy in the eyes of those who were looking at Livingston, some were just respect and admiration, plus a little surprise.
???? No one would say that he is a trash that can only be played during trash time. He has used his actual actions to prove that he has not fallen to that stage. Of course, it once again proved how unique Henson's vision is.
???? The knee once shattered completely, so what? He is the hero who reversed the game and saved the team, and is a key step for Henson to regain control of the game.
NBA, I'm back!
"Now, everyone can shut up! I have always believed in him, and I only send players I believe in. So, don't question him anymore. I choose him as the last reinforcement for the team before it hits the championship. It's not unreasonable."
In the press release after the game, Henson was quite proud. Especially after knowing that Larry Drew mentioned "we shouldn't ignore Livingston" more than once in the interview just now.
? Although Henson hates this kind of thing, he knows in his heart that professional basketball is so cruel. If Livingston didn't show up in this game, then the countless voices of doubt after the game will not only drown Livingston, but also Henry himself who decided to sign Livingston!
So now, Henson will not be humble. He satirized Drew and satirized the media who ignored Livingston before the game. If you win, you must be mad, because when you lose, it is impossible for someone to play you.
What is the measure of success? It is the result, not the process. People will not stand by Livingston's inspirational story. But once you help the team win the game, everything will come back!
It's just that Larry Drew, Henson's old rival, is said to have received a call from the Eagles management that night after the Eagles were defeated by the Pacers for the fourth time this season.
According to Wonalowsky’s revelations, the phone call is roughly like this, "The regular season has completely failed, and we have been nailed to the pillar of shame. If the team in this year's playoffs cannot break through the first round, then Drew, I'm afraid this summer we will ask another clever."
Seeing this report by touching Kona's dog's head at home, Henson just shook his head slightly. He didn't feel sad because he was pitying the enemy. In the world of competitive sports, sympathy is not allowed.
What's more, now there is one more thing worthy of Henson's happiness.
After defeating the Eagles, it means that less than a week is left before the end of March. In other words, the days when Ray Allen and David West return to the team have also entered the countdown stage.
When a Pacer with a neat lineup and Livingston reappears, Henson will prove it to the world.
What sounds like a dream while taking 72 wins while taking turns can really become a reality.
