The Basketball Court Swordsman

In front of the tombstone, tickets for the 2019 NBA Finals are burning in the fire. If anyone knows that what is being ignited is the ticket for the opener of this year's NBA Finals, he will definitely put his hand into the fire and draw the ticket out. Regardless of his burned hand, he laughed.

Because Henson burned the tickets and the green dollars.

Since this year is Henson's last year, tickets for the finals are unprecedentedly expensive. In the first game held at the Banker’s Life Arena, the average ticket price was as high as more than $4,000.

More than 4,000 US dollars, enough to buy a bunch of Apple phones in the United States. No matter how fast the replacement of an Apple phone is, it will definitely work in two or three years. And a ticket for the finals allows you to enjoy up to 48 minutes.

$4,000 is just the average price of tickets for this game. In other words, a seat close to the stadium does not cost tens of thousands of dollars, and it is definitely not possible to take it down.

This shows how extravagant Henson's behavior is at this time.

But Henson didn't care at all. He only hoped that his old friend who was sleeping underground would remember to watch his finals.

His last finals.

"Finally came today, Sag. I remember the last time I came to see you, it was last year. But this season was extremely busy, so I didn't have time to come often. You must know that I am in the finals again. Three years back, three finals. Hahahaha, they actually sold tickets so expensive. If I were a fan, I would have been tired of watching two of the same teams play the finals for three consecutive years."

Henson sat in front of Sager's tombstone and began a conversation with an old friend.

"Also, this is the last time I played in the finals. I told you last fall that this is my last season. I'm not like you, man. Until the last moment of my life, I still stick to the work I love. At the post. I want to quit. I want to spend time with my family. After all... I don’t even know if I can accompany Emily on her birthday this year. Except for the day she was born, I never accompany me anymore. She has a birthday."

"So, I want to change the focus of my life. The job of a head coach is no better than a sideline reporter, Sague. I am a man, and a man can't just focus on basketball. But rest assured, I won't let you down. In Kobe's final battle, he scored 60 points. In the final battle between Wade and Dirk, they won the respect and blessings of the fans. And me, my final battle is bound to take the O'Brien Cup! "

"Receive your tickets. This year's tickets are expensive. Let's watch the game, Sague. We agreed. This is the last time we have met in the finals..."

After talking a lot, Henson sat in front of the tombstone for several minutes before he was willing to get up and leave.

Henson never thought that he would have such a deep friendship with a reporter. But he was also very fortunate that he actually had a deep friendship with a reporter, a reporter who deserved people's respect.

The expensive tickets were burned to ashes and then drifted away in the wind. Henson looked at the black ashes and stood up silently.

Before the finals, his last thing was done. Next, it's time to prepare for the finals.

After Henson got up, he saw a young man with long blond hair smiling and facing him. Henson was stunned, then responded with a smile.

He recognized the young man in front of him. The man with the pigtails was little Sage, the son of Craig Sage who was sleeping underground.

Little Sage, like his father, is also a sideline reporter. Therefore, I met Henson several times.

"I didn't expect to see you here, Coach Henson." Little Sarger shook hands in a friendly manner. He could see that he had been waiting by the side for a long time, but he was never willing to disturb Henson.

"I come every year and hope your father can go to my finals performance."

"Really? Say so..."

"Four times, I've been here to send tickets for the finals four times."

"My father will be very grateful to you, Coach Henson."

"No, I should be grateful to him." Henson said, his eyes fell on the tombstone again, and he remembered every word that Sager had said to him.

Of course, I also remembered what I learned from Sague.

When he devotes all his enthusiasm to the things he loves and pursues, all of this will in turn embrace himself.

"By the way, Coach Henson. I was fortunate to be able to participate in the sideline interview of the finals this year. eSPN gave me this privilege. In other words, I will be there on the day of your game. Then, don't refuse my interview. Please." Little Sage smiled, he actually came to talk to his father today.

Your son is going to the finals too!

"Really? Congratulations. After all, not every sideline reporter has the opportunity to interview in the finals."

"Yes, and I believe that my father would definitely want me to interview you. After all... after all, this is a regret for him and you."

"Regret, yes, there will always be some regrets in one's life. Don't worry, I will not refuse your interview, as long as your questions are not as boring as your father."

"Hahahaha, I'm afraid I have inherited the block he asked questions, Coach Henson. By the way, I heard that Durant and Cousins ​​will both return in the finals. Will you change? You want How to deal with them? Oh, of course, this is not an interview. It's just a private chat between friends."

"You'll know then, Sague. I know the Warriors are strong, but we are the defending champions."

After Henson finished speaking, he waved goodbye to Sage. Now, it's time to understand everything.

Steve Kerr is ready and strictly supervising the training of everyone on the Warriors.

He knew that this was his last chance.

Of course, Kerr has no plans to retire, and his position in the Warriors is also very solid. But to defeat Henson, this is indeed the last chance. If he misses this year, Cole's career will always be shrouded in Henson's shadow.

In the past two years, the Warriors have racked their brains to win the championship from the Pacers. But for two consecutive years, they all failed.

After this year, even if the Warriors can beat the Pacers, what is the point? After all, the Pacers after this year are no longer the Pacers belonging to Henson Joe.

Why are the two champions of Olajuwon and the Rockets rarely mentioned? Because Olajuwon won the championship without Jordan.

Therefore, Cole attaches great importance to this year's game. Henson is the opponent he most wants to beat now, none of them. He is proud of the championship, but also proud of defeating Henson.

He wants to be a winner, not the "number one loser in Henson's era." He wants to be Jordan, not Karl Malone.

This year, the Warriors sit on an ultra-luxury lineup of Cousins, Green, Durant, Thompson and Curry. And when the finals are approaching, they are all very healthy.

But even so, Cole is still a little worried. Although the Pacers won the Eastern Conference championship, they were extremely desperate by the Raptors. But Kerr knows that this is not the final form of the Pacers!

Maybe someone else has forgotten one thing, but Cole will not forget it.

The ultimate lineup that Pat Riley called perfection, Henson hasn't used it for a long time. In the first round of the playoffs against the Pistons, Henson only allowed the lineup for five minutes and beat the Pistons.

Thinking of this, Cole couldn't help becoming a little nervous.

Because he doesn't know how high their ceiling is when the Pacers take their final form...
