The Basketball Court Swordsman

Chapter 589: : Facial paralysis with expression

113 to 91, in fact, the point difference in this game is much larger than James imagined.

In the game, Paul George scored 34 points and 8 rebounds. Among them, the goal that knocked LeBron James down and hit a three-pointer was even more scrolled by major sports channels. This video is also among the best in the number of sports portals around the world.

Only then did people remember that Paul George, a top scorer, was not a good one. The Cavaliers' guard line couldn't hinder George at all.

In addition to George, Antetokounmpo's 23 points and Paul's 15 points and 13 assists are also very impressive. It can be said that the Pacers played the double success of team basketball and individual basketball.

Looking at the Cleveland Cavaliers, their performance is not so ideal.

Accustomed to Thomas Jr.'s weak defense, Irving was obviously a little ill-prepared when facing Paul. Irving made only 4 of 11 shots and only scored 11 points. As the No. 2 player of the Cavaliers, the contribution of 11 points is obviously not passing.

Love's performance was pretty good, with 20 points and 12 rebounds, and a double-double. But the contribution of 20 points is very limited to the Cavaliers.

James scored 25 points in the game and was scumbed by George. The combined defense of Antetokounmpo and George deflated James, who has always been accustomed to rampage.

As for the rest of the Cavaliers, the performance is even more "excellent." Korver made 1 of 6 shots and only scored 3 points. Shumpert seemed to be infected by Korver. He also made 1 of 6 shots and only scored 3 points.

Deron, Derek Williams and Richard Jefferson, the three "excessive trio" combined, only scored 5 points. How bad the Cavaliers' performance is, it's clear from the data.

The day after the game ended, the whole world fell to one side and took the Pacers to the altar. No matter how powerful LeBron James was, he still never defeated Henson. There is no doubt that this greatly enhances Henson's historical status.

Especially when the Cavaliers just won the championship last season.

Henson grinned as he watched articles praising the Pacers in the head coach's office. After working hard for a season, he finally got the result he wanted.

Now, the Pacers can easily tackle the Cavaliers. This also means that his team has the ability to fight with the Warriors.

Speaking of the Warriors, tonight, the first game of the Western Conference Finals will also start. The Golden State Warriors will face the Spurs led by Henson's old friend Popovich. Although Henson wanted to compete with the Warriors at the top, although all the preparations Henson has done now are to deal with the Warriors.

But from the heart, Henson would rather give up all his preparations and hope the Spurs can advance.

After all, Henson and Popovich had a good personal relationship. And Leonard is also Henson's lover.

In terms of personal feelings, Henson hopes his friends will win. Considering the game, the Spurs are not as scary as the Warriors. Therefore, Henson hopes that the Spurs will advance.

This may be the first time Henson looks forward to the Western Conference Finals like a fan.

In the past few years, Henson was too busy dealing with the Heat, let alone the Western Conference Finals. Moreover, who has advanced to Henson from the Western Conference Finals in the past is also indifferent. Anyway, the final goal is to defeat them.

But this year is different, Henson has already made his mind in the Eastern Conference finals. In the Western Conference Finals, Henson also has a supporting team. So tonight, he decided to go home early.

Although he is an NBA head coach, Henson has countless game videos every year. But in fact, he hasn't had a long time to watch a live broadcast of an NBA game.

Therefore, Henson specifically explained to McMillan and Becky Harmon today, "No players are allowed to stay for additional training, let them go home obediently after training."

Today, Henson intends to be a fan comfortably.

Although the paper lineup of the Spurs is not as strong as the Warriors, although the outside world is also generally downcast. But to be honest, Henson thinks the Spurs still have hope of winning.

After all, the coach of that team is Gregg Popovich.

In the last round of the game, the Spurs were able to eliminate the Rockets led by MVP candidate Harden with a total score of 4 to 2, which shows that their strength is actually stronger than imagined.

Before today’s game started, Popovich said, “We have never won the championship without being optimistic.”

Yes, the San Antonio Spurs are such a team. They are never vigorous, but always slowly get the championship.

In short, the same sentence: "Warriors must not feel stable."

After the game started, the situation was similar to Henson's imagination.

The Spurs scored 5 points at the start, but then Curry, Thompson and Green scored successively, allowing the score to be overtaken.

Subsequently, the Spurs twin towers Aldridge and Gasol both began to exert their strength, overcome the strength with softness, and frequently scored inside the Warriors.

Then, Durant made a sudden penalty, and the score was approaching...

The game between the Spurs and the Warriors set the tone from the beginning. The two sides had offense and defense, alternate leading, playing well or not. Mike Brin also joked in his commentary, "The situation in the Western Conference Finals is completely opposite to the Eastern Conference Finals."

How boring the Pacers' game against the Cavaliers was yesterday, how intense the Spurs' game against the Warriors today.

Henson watched with gusto, the Warriors are undoubtedly strong, and Popovich's exquisite tactics also made Henson applaud.

The two teams entangled until the seventh minute of the third quarter, and without warning, the turning point occurred.

At this point, in the three quarters, Leonard had scored 26 points and 8 rebounds, with the ball and Aldridge playing a screen.

Today, Leonard's performance made Henson very pleased. Although he is no longer a Pacers player, he can watch that kid grow up to where he is today, and a sense of accomplishment rises from the bottom of Henson's heart.

As Aldridge feels hot today, the Warriors defended him very tightly. Durant switched defense directly in front of Aldridge, who set up a screen, and Georgia center Zaza Pachulia switched defense against Leonard.

Faced with this small chance, Leonard suddenly stopped and then withdrew his jumper. Henson still remembers that Leonard's shots were simply sloppy. But now, he has been able to confidently use these shooting skills.

Pachulia rushed forward actively. Due to the perspective, Henson couldn't see what had happened. He only saw Leonard fall directly to the ground after shooting, and then screamed.

Subsequently, the referee's hasty whistle sounded. Leonard sat on the ground clutching his ankles, and Henson's heart was shocked.

Something bad!

After a while, eSPN showed the playback screen just now. I don’t know, after watching the replay, Henson was shocked.

I saw Pachulia deliberately stepped forward while interfering with Leonard's shot. The steps he took forward were very unnatural and unnecessary.

In this way, Leonard stepped heavily on Pachulia's top instep. Leonard's ankle was twisted at a very exaggerated angle, and then he fell to the ground in pain.

Anyone who has played basketball knows that if you step on something else when landing, it is very easy to get injured. And Pachulia, this is undoubtedly letting Leonard step on her foot deliberately.

In other words, Pachulia is an estimated hurting behavior without professional ethics at all!

Henson is also a man who can do whatever it takes to win, but intentionally hurting others is his bottom line. He is not like George Karl, who would encourage his players to abolish each other. No matter how despicable Henson is, he will not harm a player's health for victory.

"This bastard!" He was yelled at by angry Henson, shocked An Jiali who was teasing Emily.

She had never seen Henson act so angry in front of her family.

Then, with the support of his teammates, Leonard limped off the court. It seems that he cannot continue the game

Leonard hugged his head in frustration, he never liked to show his emotions. Unless, it is really uncontrollable. Seeing this scene, Henson felt a pain in his heart.

Leonard must know how badly he was injured this time. Otherwise, with his character, he would not write frustration on his face!

With 26 points in three quarters, the Spurs still lead. But this great situation is all gone now...

Sure enough, after losing Leonard, the Warriors quickly took control of the game. Even Popovich can hardly compete with the Warriors without Leonard.

In the end, the Warriors succeeded in winning the game at Oracle Arena. But because of Pachulia stepping on Leonard, in Henson's view, the Warriors' victory was nothing.

"Damn it!" Henson turned off the TV, then held his forehead, trying not to get his heart too excited.

Henson will never forget Leonard's frustrated eyes and expression just now. Although the playoffs are a stage where you can do whatever you can to win, Pachulia's actions still make Henson feel too much.

The Chinese coach clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. This season, Henson has been very moderate. Basically, I have never quarreled with anyone, even if it is an attack, it is only described with some irony.

But now, Henson didn't want to bear it anymore. It seems that the war with the Warriors is about to start ahead of schedule.
