The next morning, when Henson fended off the training hall at the Consec Arena, most of the players were already in full swing. Even though we played until 11pm yesterday, it's not too hard for the young players to get up early after the party and go to training.

And unlike the previous days, the players are finally rejuvenated on the pitch. It seems that last night's party didn't exhaust the players too much, but instead swept away the frustration of losing to the Grizzlies and the playfulness of Christmas. The pressure from all sides seems to have been reduced a lot because of this.

Henson looked at the result he had created with satisfaction, to be exact, the result that Anjiali had helped him create, and finally changed from a sad face to a smile.

"You're you, Henson, these little ones are so energetic today!" Vogel has today's training plan in hand and he can't wait to see the players get back on track.

"It's not time to be happy, Frank. When the two back-to-back games are over, we will know whether to be happy or not. ”

Boston Celtics and Washington Wizards, Henson hopes to get through the final two games of 2010 for himself and his team.

While Henson and his players were sweating in the training gym, photos of Pacers players partying at Henson's house have been posted on major news sites.

In this Internet era, the characteristics of news timeliness have been brought into full play. As long as something happens, maybe it won't take a few minutes for the whole world to know.

Watching Henson take his players to eat, drink and have fun after the team's heavy defeat to the Grizzlies, his actions couldn't help but be heavily criticized by all sides.

This time, even the Indiana Times, a local outlet, did not spare Henson.

"If it's Larry who is in charge of the team right now. Bird, he's sure to save the lads from the haze of defeat, and not take them to their own devices! ”

"Maybe Coach Henson feels like his Christmas holiday isn't over yet. Come on, it's not football. There is no winter break in the NBA, and no coach has a Christmas break! If Henson wants the Christmas break, he can go back to scouting. "Henson's old rival, the new Hawks coach Larry. Drew replied dismissively when interviewed by reporters.

"Maybe it's good news for us, the Pacers are too young, a little bit young. If anyone dares to be so indulgent before facing us, they will pay the price on the basketball court! We've already given them a taste once this season, and there will be no surprises this time. "Doug. Rivers, the duck head who brought the Celtics back to glory in 2008, confidently answered reporters on the training ground.

When Henson was in the East, it was the Celtics who gave the Pacers their longest four-game losing streak of the season. At the beginning of the season, when the Pacers were still first in the East, the Celtics couldn't wait to pull this young team into the water. At this time, the Celtics' 23-5 record is unmatched by the Pacers' 16-12.

So in Rivers' mind, the Pacers are nothing more than a pseudo-powerhouse, a spoiler. And the powerful and noble Green Shirts cannot lose to a-stirring stick. Against Henson, Rivers was full of confidence. It can even be said that he still has a little contempt.

Now Henson actually made a joke about taking the players to a party, which strengthened Henson's image as an idiot in Rivers's heart.

"It seems that Coach Rivers is confident about the next game. Tomorrow at 8 p.m., please stay tuned to T.NT TV and follow the live broadcast of this big battle! ”

※※※

December 30, 7:30 p.m., Indianapolis, Conseco Arena.

While some Pacers fans were upset with Henson's party after the team's loss, Rivers' arrogant attitude annoyed the Indianapolis.

At the end of the day, Indiana fans are still surrounded by the Pacers. They can criticize this team, criticize Henson, but it's not Doug's turn. Rivers came to point fingers. To put it bluntly, we can scold, but you can't be an outsider!

So when Rivers and his players stepped into the arena to warm up, the boos rang out in the stadium no less than the Los Angeles fans saw the Green Shirts.

Rivers looked serious and unaffected by the boos. After all, he is a champion coach and has seen countless big scenes, and the boos from the Consec Arena will not make his legs weak.

Rivers walked to the bench and turned to look at the Pacers, who were warming up in the other half. However, he was surprised to find that it was called Henson. Joe's rookie coach was staring at him and smiling.

Rivers raised his head haughtily, not intending to pay attention. In the eyes of most coaches, Henson is nothing more than a cunning opportunist who does not deserve to be called a coach at all. Among most of these people is Rivers.

"Look at him, he's such a haughty bastard. He must have thought I was courting him. Henson shook his head, just now he laughed because he was talking to Paul. George joked. After hearing a boo behind him, Henson subconsciously looked into the other half, but the smile on his face had not disappeared at that time. That's why Rivers mistakenly thinks Henson is laughing at him.

"After all, Doug is a champion coach, so it's normal to be a little arrogant. It seems that the big three are all very healthy and their lineup is quite complete. Henson ......"

Henson looked at Vogel, his assistant visibly unconfident.

"The Big Three are all healthy, but there's one fact that Celtic have to admit is that the Big Three are too old! They are no longer the all-powerful triumvirate they were at the beginning. Rivers better put away his pride, this is Indianapolis, I'm the boss here!" ”

Half an hour later, the game officially began. Amid the cheers of the fans, the Pacers' starting five Tigers stood in the designated position. While there were still a lot of Pacers fans who were scolding them for their inadequacy yesterday, when it came time to play, the fans weren't going to turn their back on the enemy's side.

This game put Coach Henson under a lot of pressure, after all, they had just been slaughtered by the Grizzlies in the last game, and Coach Henson's style of play was questioned. But after the loss, Coach Henson did not increase the amount of training, but threw a private party at his home and invited all the players to play. There's no doubt that Coach Henson's death-defying actions have put him on the cusp. I don't know what kind of state the young people of the Pacers can show after the party. If you want me to say, Coach Henson can't control himself, let alone tie up the players. ”

Before the game even began, Barkley joined in the complaining about Henson. Phil. In order to let Rodman play obediently, Jackson can be said to have let Rodman play outside. But from beginning to end, "Zen Master" Jackson never went out with Rodman to mess around.

"It's not necessarily a bad thing, when the Celtic Big Three were formed, the first thing Coach Rivers did was get everyone to turn off their phones and go to Italy for a week. As a result, the Celtics took home the championship trophy. All I can say is that every coach has his own way of managing his team. "Kenny. Smith and Barkley have been raising the bar as always, and the comic duo has been able to attract ratings because of their never-ending lip calls.

"Really? So today we will take a look at where Coach Henson's O'Brien Cup is! ”

Accompanied by Barkley and Kenny. Smith's quarrel, the once glamorous "big shark" Shaquille. O'Neill actually lost to Al, who is only 2.08 meters tall and looks like a defender in front of O'Neill, in the scrum. Horford.

Horford seems to be working very hard today, I don't know if it's because it has something to do with him finally getting a girlfriend.

The basketball had just fallen into the hands of Holiday after the man who had been mistaken for Darren Brown. The young point guard, who had a girlfriend at Collison, immediately picked up speed.

The Pacers' offense was as good as ever, with the rest of the team scattered and Holiday easily driving in. Due to Rondo's injury, Rivers had to replace the "little potato" Nate Fertilis, who is only 1.75 meters tall. Robinson was pushed to the starting No. 1 spot.

Nate. Robinson is undoubtedly a great player, but no matter how good a player is, he has shortcomings. When it comes to defense, Robinson and Rondo are completely incomparable.

Holiday broke through to the free throw line and easily threw in front of Robinson, who is 1.75 meters tall, before anyone else's defense could come up!

Holiday is 1.93 meters tall and is a tall point guard. Robinson's height of 1.75 meters is even a figure after mixing water...... Because Henson can accurately see with the data analysis module, Nate's height is 1.73 meters.

Just eight seconds into the opening period, the Pacers played their first offense. Instead of being denied by the defeat and the party, they became energetic.

The Celtics, on the other hand, are like old men who can't open their legs, and they always seem to be half a beat slower than the Pacers.

Henson clapped at his players and then shouted a shout to remind them to be aware of their defensive positions. Coach Rivers, it's time to wake up from your championship dream.
