The Basketball Court Swordsman

Jason Kidd has never seen a team like this.

A team where every player can play a role and is fully armed to the teeth. At this point, this high-profile battle has reached the last four minutes of the fourth quarter. On the surface, the Nets still have the hope of catching the score back. After all, the point difference has been hovering between 9 and 12 points.

But Kidd is very clear that his team is not lucky enough in this game. Because the point difference is hovering between 9 and 12 points, the game has lasted three quarters.

Since the end of the first quarter, the Nets have never effectively reduced the point difference. Although the Pacers failed to expand the difference again, the situation was firmly controlled by the Pacers.

To be precise, it was firmly controlled by Henson.

Every time he pauses, every time he changes, and every time he shouts, he can have an immediate effect. Kidd believes that when he was a player, he was also a man of great control. But that's because Kidd can always control the ball.

But Henson, he managed to control the game on the sidelines. Before becoming the head coach, Kidd had heard many legends about Henson. But he didn't know until today that those are not legends, but facts!

"The Nets players don't plan to give up yet. They are only a little close to the score! Pierce received a pass from Deron Williams and shot!"

"Hey!" Kenny Smith had just finished speaking, when the iron strike sounded. Pierce missed again, under Leonard's defense, Pierce's every attack was difficult.

The Pacers immediately launched a fast break, and their fast pace tortured the Nets' defense. But when the Nets' defense all shrank to the penalty zone, Chris Paul secretly distributed the ball to Al Horford at the top of the arc outside the three-point line.

At this time, Horford was left unattended at all because the Nets contracted too hard!

With a three-pointer, Horford extended the difference to 13 points. Kidd shook his head, what did he say? Every player of the Pacers can play after they come on the court. Kidd must admit if he insists.

The Indiana Pacers are more like a "big five" team!

"If the Nets lose again in this game, their record will become 2 wins and 4 losses. They won only 2 of 6 games. Billy King will not be satisfied with this result."

Barkley was right when Billy King, the general manager of the Nets in the luxurious private room, was on the verge of collapse. What "five-year championship plan", what "Pacer challenger", these names sound so loud.

But the result? In the arena, the Nets are not at the same level as the Pacers! In the arena, any false flattery will show up.

Horford's three-pointer seemed like a signal. Since then, the passion of the Nets players has faded. Because they know very well that this game is already very difficult to win.

In the end, both sides sent a full bench. And at the last moment in Europe, Henson did not even go to Antetokounmpo, but went to Yi Jianlian. It can be said that this is the greatest respect for the Nets and the New York fans on site.

After the game, the score on the big screen was fixed at 107 to 99. It seems that the 8 points difference does not seem to be large. But anyone who has watched the game knows that the score does not reflect the game loyally.

After the electronic buzzer sounded, the New York fans booed immediately behind Henson.

"It seems you are in a big trouble today, Henson." Vogel joked with Henson as he listened to the boo. "New York fans, I wish I could kill you."

"No," Henson shook his head lightly, "It's not that I'm in trouble, but Billy King is in trouble. The so-called'big five' lineup he brags to New York fans does not seem to have reached the New Yorker's. Expected."

Yes, the New York fans are not booing Henson, but expressing their dissatisfaction to Billy King.

"To be honest, this game was not as exciting as we thought. In people's expectations, the Nets should fight the Pacers until the last minute. However, the Pacers have already taken control at the start of the second quarter. The whole stadium. Now, let’s take a look at the data sheet for this game."

"On the Pacers side, all five starting players scored in double figures. George 24 points, Paul 18 points and 8 assists, Leonard and West each scored 15 points, Horford scored 13 points. On the bench. , Antetokounmpo, Jimmy Butler and Stephenson each contributed 6 points. It seems that the Pacers’ bench shots are distributed very evenly. Okay, let’s take a look at the Nets... ."

Barkley can't wait to call up the Nets' data sheet. Billy King's arrogant lies will be exposed in these real numbers!

"It's a pity that the Nets only scored in double figures with three players and no one scored 20. Deron and Joe Johnson each scored 17 points, and Lopez scored 15 points. But Garnett and Pierce, The two combined only scored less than 15 points. On the bench, Kirilenko regretted "swallowing the egg". Terry made 0 of 4 shots and only contributed 2 rebounds... well, I'm finished, this is the statistics that the Nets used to play with a 100 million yuan lineup! Needless to say, everyone should know which team performed better."

Kenny Smith shook his head. This time, even he didn't know how to refute Barkley's big mouth. "Yes, the Pacers seem to be able to suppress the Nets in every position. This suppression, even from The starting line continued to the bench! And the Pacers’ multi-point performance really made the Nets’ defense at a loss."

"Coach Henson said he would let everyone see what a real Big Five team is, and now, he has done it." Finally, O'Neal made a summary for the game.

After the game, Billy King was besieged by reporters. Although as the general manager of the team, he does not need to attend the press conference. But in the player channel, it is still inevitable to be caught by reporters.

"This summer you squandered so many dollars from your boss, is it just for this result?"

"Mr. Billy King, do you still think the Nets are a team capable of competing for the championship?"

"When you lost to the Pacers in the preseason, you said the Nets hadn't gotten into form. What about now? How do you explain this?"

Although these problems annoyed Billy King, they are not too sharp. It wasn't until a reporter from Indianapolis asked that Billy King knew what defeat was like a mountain.

"After this game, you should not dare to challenge the authority of Coach Henson anymore? Mr. General Manager?"

It’s a shame that a team general manager was compared with the head coach. Because in terms of level, the general manager is the boss of the head coach.

However, Billy King has not only been compared with the head coach, he has even become the one who challenges the "authority". There is no doubt that this problem humiliated Billy King.

Although very angry, Billy King left without replying a word.

Because in the face of failure, any justification is futile.

At the same time, in the luxurious media reception room of the Barclays Center, the Chinese coach, who had a relaxed look before the game, was full of spring breeze.

"I said, I will let you know the difference, but you don't believe it. Now it's alright? Who has the problem?" Henson smiled and spread his hands in the face of a group of sad New York media.

"Coach Henson, do you think Billy King's formation this summer is really reasonable?" Finally, a New York media spoke up, but the gun was not aimed at Henson.

It can be seen that after this game, Billy King was disgusted in the New York media, and he has successfully surpassed Henson.

"A lineup that can win is reasonable, and a lineup that can't win is unreasonable. Hopefully, the lineup created by Mr. Billy King can become reasonable in the next game. Okay, today’s press release It will end here. When we meet again next time, I hope you have found your own rhythm."

Spike Lee filmed Henson's **** side at the press conference. If it were placed in the past, he, a pure New Yorker, would definitely hate Henson.

However, considering the unwarranted accusations that Henson received and the sweat he devoted to this game, Spike Lee suddenly felt that this Chinese coach seemed not too much... at least compared to those unreasonable reporters, He is already a real gentleman.

"It's over so soon? I thought you had a lot to say to Billy King." Vogel was surprised to see Henson walked out of the media reception room within a few minutes.

"It's not necessary, and the weak, nothing to say. Let's go, with the hatred of New Yorkers as always, let's go home!"
