The Basketball Court Swordsman

A Cadillac CT6 appeared in the underground parking lot of the Banker’s Life Arena. The Cadillac brand was so luxurious for most civilians. But in this star-studded banker’s life arena, the price of CT6 is not worth mentioning.

An Asian man with short braids and a big beard got out of the car, took off his sunglasses, and looked around meaningfully.

He was so familiar with everything around him. After all, two years ago, he would come here to work every day. But now, the surroundings are a little strange. Because many familiar people, familiar cars have left. The logo of the underground parking lot has also been repainted.

The owner of this Cadillac CT6 is Pacers general manager and head coach Henson Joe. Once, his car was a retro Jaguar sports car. But now with a family, the two-seater sports car with insufficient space and comfort obviously cannot meet Henson's needs.

In the beginning, Henson was planning to buy Lincoln or Bentley. But after the test drive, Henson found that these two brands of luxury sedans with good prices had a bad driving experience.

Later Henson learned that most of these cars are driven by drivers, and the owners only need to sit in the back and enjoy. Therefore, in terms of controllability, it is not dominant. Therefore, Henson chose a Cadillac CT6 with good comfort and handling as his new car.

Just from the car, you can also see the changes that time has brought to Henson.

Following the instructions of the underground parking lot, Henson walked into the player passage. This complicated player channel like a maze is very familiar to Henson.

He knew very well what was waiting for him behind every corner, and this inexplicable comfort made Henson slightly contorted the corners of his mouth.

An Jiali is right, the basketball court is his world.

Henson opened the door and walked into the locker room. As the players had already started to warm up before training, all the locker rooms were empty.

It's still familiar here, but the name on the locker is mostly different from a few years ago.

Ray Allen’s cabinet became owned by Oladipo, and the name on Horford’s cabinet became Kevin Rooney... But Henson still felt that the locker room was extremely cordial. He used to be here. He has given exciting speeches time after time, and he has deployed countless deadly tactics here.

He has experienced victories and defeats here, and experienced players coming and going. Also let myself, from a frivolous "old boy" into a man.

Stroking the wooden locker, Henson felt as if he could communicate with them. They have witnessed all the stories of the Pacers, and now, a new chapter of the story is about to open!

"Come on, you **** bastard, you can't let those guys who look down on you succeed!" Henson said silently in his heart, then tidyed up his Armani suit and walked to the training ground.

Oladipo came to the training ground to practice shooting early in the morning. He had heard of Henson Joe's various "heroic deeds", so he still had some inexplicable fear of Henson.

Today is the first day of the pre-season training camp and the first training after Henson's return, so no one dares to be late.

No, let alone being late, almost everyone arrived on the court half an hour before the start of training.

"Chris, did Coach Henson overslept?" Seeing that Henson hadn't appeared until only 5 minutes before the training began, Oladipo turned his head and asked Paul.

Although Oladipo struggled with the Pacers, it was due to the style of the game, not personal. Oladipo and his teammates get along quite happily.

"Haha," Paul smiled triumphantly. "You have to get used to it, man. Coach Henson never arrives late, and of course he never arrives early."

Henson's habits are still the same as before. He doesn't want the players to think that the coach comes to help them out early in the morning.

Sure enough, just one minute before the start of the training, the door of the training hall was pushed open.

Henson Joe, who had been away from the training ground for two years, once again stepped into his hall of honor. New and old players of the Pacers stared at Henson and stopped their movements.

The old player stared at Henson, curious about the big change in Henson's appearance. The new players are curious about this character who only exists in the legend.

"Keep on practicing, I'm not a bikini **** Venice Beach. Is it possible that any of you like men!?"

Henson's stern voice terrified many young players. The old players will smile, and they feel uncomfortable in the past two years without Henson's scolding.

Now, the familiar feeling is finally back.

"You all heard, continue to warm up. Whether the new season can be successful or not is decided from now on!" Chris Paul greeted as the team's big brother, he is always Henson's most capable assistant.

Henson nodded to Paul, then walked into the head coach's office-Henson's second office.

Due to the special nature of his job this year, both the general manager's office and the head coach's office belong to him. Therefore, Henson has a lot of working space. But he is more used to staying in the head coach's office on the training ground.

When Henson walked into the office, Nash, McMillan, Becky Harmon, Stephen Silas and Bruce Frazier were already waiting in the coaching staff.

Henson didn't say much. His first words after meeting everyone were: "Be prepared, guys, this is destined to be a difficult season. But I believe that everyone's efforts will be rewarded."

"Boss, I have put the rough training plan on your desk." Becky Harmon pointed to Henson's desk with a smile, and a training plan outline was printed on it.

After several years of exercise, Becky Harmon has become very mature in formulating training plans.

"Thank you, Becky, I will take a closer look later. On the first day of the pre-season training camp, the training focuses on physical and physical recovery. After I determine the training plan, we will start tactical practice. Now let me talk about it. , Your work arrangements in the future."

Henson paused so that he could keep up with his thinking while working with him for the first time.

"Fraser and Steve, your mission is to continue to develop the skills of young players. Becky and McMillan, you will supervise the individual training of the players. Silas, old friend, I need something fresh The name, just like before..."

After arranging everyone's tasks roughly, the coaching staff dispersed and started to work. And Henson sat behind his familiar desk, and countless memories burst out instantly.

But Henson knew very well that one cannot just live in the glory of the past. The purpose of his return is to create a new glory!

So Henson once again called his badge. That "pre-season training camp" badge has not been used for a long time.

Before retiring, Henson had upgraded this badge to level 3. In other words, Henson can now appoint three players to improve one of their abilities to a certain extent.

Regarding how to allocate this badge, Henson had already made plans.

First, Henson increased Brook Lopez's three-point shooting ability. Next season, the long-range shooting of the All-Star center will be one of the key tactical threats for the Pacers.

Secondly, Henson increased Antetokounmpo's ability to attack the frame. He believes that next season's Antetokounmpo will be a big killer. Once the space is opened, Antetokounmpo's impact can make all teams pay.

Finally, Henson once again upgraded Paul George's dribbling ability. After this promotion, Henson believed that Paul George would become one of the league's top scorers!

Of course, the role of the Henson badge does not stop there.

Excellent Staff Level 2: Increase the trust of team employees by 20%.

Team Tacit Level 1: Reduce the impact of tacit damage by 10%.

Injury reduced by 3 levels: The probability of injury is reduced by 30%.

Quick Recovery Level 2: The effect is to increase the recovery speed of injured players by 20%.

Fitness facilities level 2: All players' physical strength and progress rate +20%.

Fatigue reduced by 2 levels: the player’s fatigue accumulation speed is reduced by 20%.

Defensive awareness level 1: All players' defensive awareness increases by 10%.

The changes he brought to the team are obvious, with so many badge bonuses, plus his own experience and prestige. Henson believes that he will be able to succeed again!

The Golden State Warriors are strong? They must win the championship?

Henson raised his mouth slightly, but the media thought so...
