The Basketball Court Swordsman

When Henson appeared on the training ground the next morning, it was discovered that the dark circles under his eyes yesterday afternoon had disappeared.

It seems that Henson really had a good night's sleep last night and did not stay up late to watch the game video.

If it were in the past, last night would definitely be a sleepless night for Henson. Because of the next two games, the Pacers will not only play back-to-back in the first round of the season. Moreover, these two opponents are still difficult to deal with.

The next two back-to-back opponents are the Chicago Bulls, the Pacers' rivals in the opening game of this season, and the current upstart in the East, as well as the traditional giants in the East-the Boston Celtics!

Playing the Bulls and Celtics back to back is undoubtedly a huge challenge for any team.

But Henson today is obviously much calmer than before. Even if this horrible round of back-to-back is about to begin tonight, he still had a good night's sleep and left his work at the time for his work.

In fact, this round of back-to-back to Henson, only the Celtics can be called opponents. Because in the opening game, Henson had already figured out the trick to defeat the Bulls, which is to shrink the defense.

As long as they can successfully force the Bulls to shoot three-pointers, the Pacers will basically win by half. Therefore, Henson is not worried about playing the Bulls tonight.

What he is worried about is precisely the game against the Celtics tomorrow at home, and the game tomorrow is also considered to be Henson's last trouble before starting his Salt Lake City tour.

Boston Celtics, from the perspective of staffing, the Celtics seem not as dazzling as the Bulls.

After all, the Bulls' three outside lines, Jimmy Butler, Wade and Rondo, are all smash hits.

And what are the players in the Celtics team? Thomas is 1.75 meters tall, Avery Bradley has been tepid, Jaylen Brown has struggled in his rookie season, Olynyk has been dull, and the Pacers veteran has been underestimated. Al Horford...

In this era of "multi-giant teams" everywhere, the Celtics lineup can only be described as "popular".

However, Henson still views the Celtics as a more threatening enemy, and facts have also proved that the Celtics have a better record than the Bulls.

In Henson's view, the difference lies in the fact that the coach of the Bulls is Hoiberg, and the coach of the Celtics is Brad Stevens!

Henson still remembered that when he faced Stevens in the last year, the kid caused himself a lot of trouble. You know, the Celtics back then were more civilians than they are now. Jeff Green was the strongest scoring point Stevens could get at the time.

But now, the Celtics' staffing has improved a lot. Most importantly, Stevens is also improving over the years. Henson believes that the matchup with Stevens will not be easier than the one with Popovich.

When Stevens was still teaching at Butler University, Henson had seen him great. In fact, if Stevens hadn't led the entry, there wouldn't be the current Henson.

So Henson can be sure that the game tomorrow night will be very brain-killing. As for today's game against the Bulls...just take it as a warm-up for tomorrow night.

Since leaving the Pacers, Jimmy Butler has never been soft in the Bankers Life Arena.

But this season, this is the second time Jimmy Butler has lost his face at Bankers Life Arena.

"Jimmy tried to find the gap, but the Pacers protected the penalty area very tightly! Coach Henson was determined to guard the penalty area from the beginning of the game. It turns out that his strategy is extremely correct. Just like the opener, the bulls face. There is nothing to do with the shrinking defense of the Pacers!"

"Yeah, the most frightening thing is that Coach Hoiberg has no way to adjust this. Obviously, the combination of Rondo + Wade + Jimmy Butler is problematic. All three people Can't open up the space, so who will break through? But until now, coach Hoiberg still refuses to change teams."

The two commentators have been speechless about the Bulls' play, Hoiberg's play is completely contrary to the large space and more three-point play of this era.

If you have a super insider, there is nothing wrong with not using space and three points. But the strong point of the Bulls is precisely the outside line...

Sure enough, Jimmy Butler's shock failed again. Surrounded by Antetokounmpo and Paul George, Jimmy Butler has no room for action.

His breakthrough layup missed again, and this failed offense is just a microcosm of the Bulls' game today.

Henson was right, the Bulls have long been unable to pose a threat to the Pacers.

After 48 minutes of the game, the Bulls scored 94 points. The Pacers, who played at home, scored 111 points.

With 17 points, the Pacers defeated the Chicago Bulls for the second time this season.

Henson shook his head. Without Thibodeau's bull, it was really boring.

"In this game, the Bulls only scored 6 three-pointers. Jimmy Butler, the highest-scoring player, only scored 16 points. Wade and Rajon Rondo combined only scored 13 points. This series of data shows that Coach Henson’s strategy for the Bulls is extremely correct."

"Furthermore, Coach Hoiberg didn't respond at all to Henson's strategy. There is nothing to say about this game. From the very beginning, Henson had the victory firmly in his hands."

The commentators almost gave Henson a one-sided praise, and Jimmy Butler walked into the player tunnel griefly after the game.

He neither accepted interviews with reporters nor embraced Henson. The failure of the Banker’s Life Arena made Jimmy Butler feel discouraged.

Seeing Jimmy Butler's back, Henson shook his head. Of all the players he has taken, Jimmy Butler may be the most rebellious one. He wants to win too much, but sometimes, it happens to be counterproductive...

Jimmy Butler was able to escape reporters' questioning, but Henson was not so lucky. With a dazed effort, several reporters were already surrounded by him.

"Coach Henson, do you think the Pacers' strategy today was executed successfully?"

"I don't need to answer this question, you should also be clear."

"What do you think of Jimmy Butler's performance? Do you think he can't succeed after leaving the Pacers?"

"Sorry, I don't like to comment on players from other teams."

Henson handled the questions of the first two reporters with ease. But Henson didn't expect that the third reporter's question made him suddenly stunned.

"As we all know, the Pacers will also play a back-to-back game with the Celtics at home tomorrow. There is no doubt that the next game is definitely not easy for you and the team. So what do you think, Jim Ou Brian's predictions and comments on the next game?"

After the reporter asked, Henson was stunned. Jimmy O'Brien, he hasn't heard the name for a long time. Besides, what does the next game against the Celtics have to do with Jimmy O'Brien?

The reporter saw Henson stunned in place, and instantly understood the reason. Yes, Henson has been directing the game all night today. Where can I get the news? So, the reporter simply retelled what Jimmy O'Brien had just posted on social media in front of the scene and the camera behind him.

"I know very well that Henson is indeed very smart. He can always come up with some weird and weird tricks. At the beginning, Byrd was attracted by his strange tricks. But after all, he was a monk halfway through. Even data analysts can’t do well. Stevens was successful in college. He has a good foundation and coaching foundation. So I believe that in the next game, Coach Henson will also experience being How does it feel to be defeated by the assistant."

The reporter repeated what Jim O'Brien had said, but Henson remained stunned.

The example of Joel Embiid has only just passed a few days. Is it possible that someone has forgotten his fate so quickly?

Jim O'Brien is naturally not stupid, nor has he forgotten Embiid's fate.

It's just that his dissatisfaction with Henson has unconsciously reached a critical point.

And now, the anger has broken through the tipping point and is about to explode.

But instead of avoiding the topic this time, Henson satirized O'Brien, "Not all coaches are afraid of his assistants. I admit Stevens's ability, but even so, Kyle The special person is not invulnerable."

The reporters are standing up one by one, they are very clear. In the next 24 hours, the scolding battle between Henson and Jim O'Brien will continue to be "updated".
