The Basketball Court Swordsman
Chapter 97: : We also have all-stars
The Blazers players are obviously not as good as the Pacers players to adapt to the big and four small play styles, and Cunningham's performance in the fourth position is not satisfactory.
McMillan gave Cringham a lot of playing time today, but Cringham hasn't played the desired effect.
Not everyone can play one big and four small.
In the second half of the game, the pace was completely controlled by the Pacers. The extremely fast offensive and defensive conversion speed makes the pioneers who like to fight positional warfare at a loss.
McMillan also tried the traditional double inside lineup again, but the result of that was that Horford played smoothly in the low post.
Unless the Portland "veterinary team" can cure Roy or Marcus Camby immediately, otherwise McMillan will not be able to play any tricks today.
After three quarters of the game, the Pacers led by 10 points. However, even so, Henson did not relax, he still urged the players not to take it lightly.
In the first two games, Henson lost because of various incredible things. Griffin's sudden eruption and Monta Ellis' last unreasonable lore left Henson with lingering fears.
Now it's hard to lead by 10 points, Henson wants the players to try to prevent that incredible thing from happening again.
Facts have proved that Henson is not so unlucky. Although Aldridge and Batum resisted in the fourth quarter, their performance was still in line with the norm.
On the contrary, Wesley Matthews' four three-pointers in a single quarter and Al Horford's icing on the cake made it difficult for the Blazers to parry.
This is the case with Matthews. He usually looks tepid, but when he feels really hot, he will kill him.
In the end, the Indiana Pacers reversed in the Rose Garden, setting the score at 105-96. If Henson had not replaced all the main players in the last minute, McMillan would not be able to reduce the points difference to single digits.
"The game is over! Coach Henson Joe's excellent employment strategy has stretched the injured Blazers! Wesley Matthews scored a season-high 24 points. It is unimaginable that he was still developing last season. He plays in the league. This season, he is already an excellent NBA starter!"
Kenny Smith excitedly announced the Pacers' victory in the studio, and then he looked at Charles Barkley expectantly.
Barkley was expressionless and his eyes were dull. He couldn't believe that the Pacers who lost to the Clippers and the Warriors could actually defeat the tenacious Trailblazers in the Rose Garden!
Sure enough, he is not suitable for betting against any yellow-skinned guy!
The ratings of T.NT TV have soared, and all fans have turned around and waited for Barkley to fulfill his promise.
Henson and the players also rushed into the locker room to watch Barkley's "exciting" live broadcast through the TV in the locker room.
The door of the locker room was filled with cameras, and reporters were waiting to film the reactions of the Pacers players after they saw Barkley running naked!
"Charles?" Kenny Smith called to Barkley again. Barkley looked at his partner in despair, then stood up suddenly and began to take off his coat!
There was a weird call from the Pacers locker room and the players started booing. Henson sat among everyone, surrounded by his players.
The players put their arms around each other's shoulders, standing around their coach in excitement. Henson at this time really looked like the boss of a gang group.
Christine is the sideline reporter for this game, and now she is naturally at the door of the Pacers' locker room. The current appearance of the Pacers, as if reminded her of the many playful boys in college.
This kind of good team atmosphere is something Christine rarely sees elsewhere.
In the end, Barkley took off only a colorful boxer shorts and appeared in front of the camera.
Kenny Smith was already laughing forward and backward, while Buckley ran around the studio in his floral shorts.
The fat on the former "Flying Pig" hit the audience's eyes like waves. The Pacers' locker room exploded, and all the players exaggerated yelling for Barkley.
"Henson Joe, you caught me this time!" After Barkley finished running, he immediately picked up his clothes and rushed to the dressing room.
Barkley should thank Henson, because from now on, the name of "Jazz Flying Pig" will become known to everyone in the world of basketball!
In the subsequent press conference, Henson responded to the incident in this way.
"Charles should thank me, because of me, his historical status has improved a lot."
Henson finished speaking and lit a cigar in front of all the reporters.
Maybe doing so will get Henson a warning from the league, but so what?
Now, he just wants to enjoy victory.
One day after the competition, the photo of Henson lighting his cigar at the press conference successfully made the headlines of major newspapers and news websites.
Of course, the hottest person today is not Henson, but Charles Barkley, the once great superstar.
The funny footage of Barkley running wild in the studio wearing floral shorts has become the most-viewed video on YouTube in recent days. People have even heard that a male underwear brand also used this incident to ask Barkley to endorse underwear...
"I won't bet with anyone anymore. I'm going to cast aside the dark." When facing the reporter's interview, Barkley waved his hand with a helpless smile.
Even Yao Ming, who is still recuperating, expressed his opinion on the matter rare in sight: "Maybe Charles Barkley has a bad memory, he said the same last time."
In fact, Barkley didn't really want to punish Henson, this guy just loves to make fun. Unfortunately, "Sir Flying Pig" found the wrong playmate this time.
Seeing that Barkley didn't keep beeping, Henson didn't get into trouble anymore. This is the end of his gambling game with Barkley, I believe that in the future, Barkley will not dare to trouble himself and the team.
With this reversal in the Rose Garden to boost morale, the Pacers played the rest of the game in January, and did not completely collapse as people predicted.
For the last four games in January, the Pacers achieved a record of 2 wins and 2 losses. Although this record cannot be called excellent, it is not bad either.
The Pacers lost the two games to the Magic and Bulls, the two strong Eastern teams, and against the Raptors and the internal and external troubles of the Nuggets, the Pacers won steadily.
The furious George Carr, the famous Qiansheng coach, was brutally beaten by Henson this season. What's more interesting is that "Birdman" Anderson only played 15 minutes in this game. As Vivic said, this summer, Anderson, who lost his trust, has a high probability of being pardoned by the Nuggets.
Since Father Carl doesn't need it, then I laugh at it.
And another thing happened in January, allowing Henson to get two achievements in one go.
At the end of January, the NBA officially announced the full list of the All-Star Game. Before the season, they were considered to be flabby walkers, but two were selected.
Al Horford and Daniel Granger have been selected to the Eastern Stars' bench lineup, which is undoubtedly a very exciting thing for them.
Henson asked Al Horford to change his outside play, but he didn't fall out of the All-Star rotation. After Granger changed to the fourth position, he became an All-Star again after a year.
In addition, Zhu. Holiday, Matthews and Paul George have also been selected to the All-Star Rookie Game.
It's just a pity that the players seem to be able to achieve success only if they are selected for the All-Star Game. Otherwise, Henson would have scored five achievements in one breath!
Choosing two out of six rewards can make Henson dazzled.
He first ruled out the badges that increase attendance and fan love, these two things Henson doesn't really care about for the time being.
Later, he ruled out badges that allowed viewing of manager trust. Because even if you don't know the specific numbers, Henson is sure that Bird trusts himself very much now.
Finally, there are three rewards left, namely,
Words: teamwork, the effect is to increase the team's tacit understanding by 15% at one time.
Badge: Goodbye friends: The effect is that the chemical reaction damage caused by the lineup change is reduced by 50%.
Badge: Quick Recovery Level 1: The effect is to increase the recovery speed of injured players by 10%.
After weighing the rights and disadvantages, Henson chose the latter two badges instead of increasing the team's tacit words. Because Henson has self-confidence, even if there is no "words", he can stabilize the team's tacit understanding.
The effect of the latter two badges is something Henson can't do. He must use the data analysis module to help.
He is not a doctor, it is impossible to speed up the player's recovery by himself. He is not a god, and it is impossible for all players to like each other.
If the Pacers change their lineup due to a trade, he doesn't want the team atmosphere to become bleak after the trade.
Moreover, the word art is a one-time consumable, and the last two badges are permanently effective after being equipped. Even if you don't need it now, it's okay to prepare first.
After happily harvesting two badges, Henson also ended all his January competitions.
The regular season will end in less than three months. The Pacers are getting closer and closer to their playoff goal.
