The Basketball Court Swordsman

Chapter 564: : The long-awaited counterpoint

"You don't understand the ball at all. When you understand why Antetokounmpo can get 100 million dollars and you can only occasionally show up on the scene, you will interview me again."

Before the game started, when Henson said this to the little-known CBS reporter, the reporter cursed Henson in his heart. The team that cursed him lost so thoroughly today, and cursed Antetokounmpo, the newly promoted billionaire man, for his poor performance.

Of course, Henson's arrogant attitude naturally annoyed many fans who did not like him. How could he be so rude to a new reporter? It's a scumbag!

You see, when they scolded Henson for scumbag, they never thought whether they were impolite. So these keyboard man and Madonna, sometimes there is really no way to communicate. Playing with them in the double standard, Henson would have to bow down.

But when the game got the final moments and the two sides were about to decide the winner, all the people who cursed Henson and questioned Antetokounmpo before the game shut up.

Because regardless of whether the Pacers can win today, Antetokounmpo’s performance is definitely not faulty...

"Antetokounmpo has a position in the post. This time, he seems to want to play in the low post!"

Reggie Miller, who was staring at the stadium, raised his tone, and Antetokounmpo changed his skills again!

CP3 was once the biggest player of the Pacers, but now, he has volunteered to be the "green leaf" beside Antetokounmpo and Paul George.

Therefore, as long as Antetokounmpo and George want the ball, CP3 will mostly not refuse.

This season, Paul averaged only 17.2 points per game, but he averaged 10.2 assists per game. This shows the changes in his role in the team.

This time was no exception. After Paul stopped outside the three-point line, he skilfully dropped the ball to Antetokounmpo. Paul and everyone in the Pacers have a good understanding. He knows what strength and angle to pass to each different person is the most comfortable.

Perhaps this is the difference between a master point guard and an ordinary point guard.

Antetokounmpo received the basketball in the low post and at the same time, Brook Lopez pulled beyond the three-point line. Deedmond gritted his teeth. Although he wanted to guard the basket, he couldn't ignore the three-pointer with a 34.6% shooting percentage.

Helpless, had to follow it out. Ever since, the inside line formed a one-on-one situation between Antetokounmpo and Aldridge!

The rest of the Spurs dare not double-team, because the Pacers' three-pointers have already cost the Spurs.

Antetokounmpo began to squeeze Aldridge with his back. Although Aldridge is much stronger than the Blazers, he is still not a "meat shield" inside. His ability to carry the low post is not bad, but it is not much better.

Antetokounmpo squeezed back inch by inch, looking for opportunities in the simplest and most crude way. It has been a long time since people have seen such a rough and classical striker, but Antetokounmpo, he is yet another unconventional player.

Just after Antetokounmpo stepped into the penalty area, he suddenly changed his pace and turned around to break through!

Aldridge didn't dare to slack off and reacted immediately. As everyone knows, Antetokounmpo retracted the basketball, turned in the opposite direction, took advantage of the situation, and threw the ball to the rebound.

Low-level dream dance! Antetokounmpo played Aldridge on the inside. He seemed to be good at offensive methods and was able to score efficiently.

The basketball refractions into the net with the rebound, Aldridge's defense failed again! People no longer know that this is the first method Antetokounmpo used to defeat Aldridge today.

Before the game began, the CBS reporter was right, "Antetokounmpo is an age-defying player".

Antetokounmpo can't control how other forwards play. He likes to play in his own way, to be precise, according to the method that Henson taught him.

Mid-range shot? Three points through the clouds? Quickly change direction under the crotch? Antetokounmpo simply disdains.

This guy only used the way of flashing under the basket, wide-angled European step breakthrough, flying fast break and squeezing the back inch by inch to open the Spurs' defense line.

Every time there is a timeout, Henson will tell Antetokounmpo to change his attack. But no matter how you change, Antetokounmpo can do the job. For example, just now, the reason why Antetokounmpo chose to play back singles was also instructed by Henson during the last timeout.

It is not terrible to have a monster in a team. The most frightening thing is that you also have a coach who can use monsters.

Isn't the person who can control monsters more deterrent?

At this point, Antetokounmpo scored his 40th point tonight! As Henson thought, Antetokounmpo, who had just signed a big contract, was very excited. He still remembers that many years ago, when Paul George was not so famous, he suddenly broke out in the second half of the season and continued to play a superstar performance for two months.

This year, the same thing is likely to happen to Antetokounmpo.

Defensively failed Aldridge looked up and looked at the big screen. The Spurs were 8 points behind the last 2 minutes because of Antetokounmpo's goal.

This low-key and restrained No. 12 striker is not hardworking, but Antetokounmpo doesn't make sense with him at all!

He took 21 shots, hit 16 goals, and had 9 rebounds, 3 assists, and 4 blocks. He didn't attempt a three-point shot, and the two scores farthest from the basket were just pressed to the paint line.

Most people are exhausted from fighting like this. But Antetokounmpo almost dragged the Spurs to death.

"Pause, pause!" Popovich yelled helplessly, and the shrewd guy Henson used Antetokounmpo to his advantage.

In the beginning, Henson let Antetokounmpo advance with the ball himself, creating an offensive threat as much as possible. When Dr. Antetokounm was so angry, Aldridge couldn't stop his breakthrough.

Therefore, Popovich asked the players to shrink to curb Antetokounmpo's momentum.

As a result, Henson immediately replaced Bogdanovic. Paul, George, Bojan and Lopez were on the perimeter and shot the Spurs to death.

Because of this, the Pacers gained the initiative in the game.

Subsequently, Henson changed his routine again. He asked Antetokounmpo to try to make a low post, and once the Spurs doubled, Antetokounmpo divided the ball. Without double-teaming, Antetokounmpo's goal rate is very high.

All night, Popovich was led by Henson. So, don't look at Antetokounmpo's 40 points today. But under Henson's use, Antetokounmpo's role is far greater than 40 points.

Seeing Popovich called a timeout, Henson raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Today, the game has been under his control, and the guy Popovich must have been burned. In the last 2 minutes, Henson planned to end Popovich's troubles.

He is about to close the game.

"In the last quarter of the game, George, you go to the second position and use your height to assault Ginobili. Yangnis, you play the third position. Your task is very simple, to contain Leonard’s offense and not let him. Lead the team to play offensive waves. Fry, defend Aldridge, don't let him catch the ball easily. Listen, the Spurs are no longer good. We can kill the game with a little more effort. At the last moment, Don't make mistakes!"

Antetokounmpo vs. Leonard? If you want to see it so, then it will fulfill you!

Henson's arrangement undoubtedly used his body to suppress the Spurs' outside line. Ginobili at 1.98 meters and George at 2.06 meters. Antetokounmpo of 2 meters 11 meets Leonard of 2 meters.

As for Aldridge, he has been devastated today and lost his confidence. Henson believed that Frye would not be blown up in the last two minutes. And no matter how bad, he still has Siakam insurance.

In this way, Henson completed his transformation. When people found that Channing Frye was going into battle and Antetokounmpo retreated to the third position, everyone was excited.

"Coach Henson let Antetokounmpo play the small forward position at the last moment! That is to say, the much-anticipated matchup will be staged in the last two minutes of the game! Look, Coach Henson is not unreasonable. He put the most A wonderful duel, reserved for the last two minutes!"

Reggie Miller is as excited as the fans. Who doesn't like the match between stars and stars?

But Popovich knew Henson very well. He knew that the guy didn't care how the fans felt. Whether the game is good or not is never what Henson cares about. All he cares about is victory.

Let Antetokounmpo play the third position, Henson's goal is to put himself to death!

"You bastard." Popovich shook his head. Henson was completely using his own Spurs as a springboard for Antetokounmpo to resound through the league.
