496: I'm starting to miss him
Henson. Joe announced his retirement, which was undoubtedly the hottest sports news of the summer. In this era of developed networks, even a small and underdeveloped place in China is full of Henson. News of Joe's retirement.
However, since no one was able to contact Henson at this time, no one was able to conduct even a telephone interview with Henson. So, the fans' demand for Henson's information has also reached its peak.
In the United States, ESPN is rolling around the clock on Henson-related programs, and the Indiana Pacers' championship godfather will end his NBA glory in this way, which undoubtedly shocked the whole country.
???? A manager who has just won three consecutive championships for the team suddenly announced his retirement, which may not be simply described as "very personal".
No one can explain why Henson did this, except for "physical reasons," the most disliked word by journalists, and the usual self-righteous journalists are now realizing how poor their vocabulary is.
???? And in China, major sports portals are even dedicated to Henson. Joe made a special feature, and for a while the fans' messages even crowded the server.
The CCTV education channel also produced a two-hour-long special program, which comprehensively reviewed the ups and downs of Henson's coaching of the Pacers in the past few years. The last basketball person who announced his retirement and enjoyed this kind of treatment on CCTV was called Yao Ming.
Pacers fans must be very sorry for this, although he has only coached the Pacers for four years, Henson can already be called the greatest head coach in the history of the Pacers.
Fans of other teams showed more joy that their worst enemy was finally gone, and the team they supported finally had the hope of winning the championship again.
While they outwardly lamented Henson's departure, they were equally happy to see Walkers, who usually walked with their nostrils pointed upwards, now in a situation where there was no Henson available.
The news about Henson's retirement has even overshadowed the ongoing NBA draft, what is comparable to Durant and James's super-talented Wiggins, what is "the strongest high school student after James" Jabari. Parker, what is known as Joel of Olajuwon II. Embiid ...... These brilliant names are no match for a Henson. Joe came with heat.
Most of the media are in a hurry, and they are eager to find Henson.
Obviously, even the media that usually hates Henson the most, did not expect that he would resolutely choose to leave at the most glorious time of the team.
This makes most media suddenly have a feeling that they have lost the focus of their lives, after all, they will not find anyone to scold in the future. If he doesn't curse, how does his article stand out from so much basketball news? If they can't attract attention with Henson, how can they make money?
???? A little later, Charles. "I don't really know if Henson's retirement is good news or bad news, but it must be good news for the other 29 head coaches in the league because their big rivals are finally gone," Barkley said half-jokingly and half-helplessly on TV's NBA INSIDE. But for others, like for me, it's definitely bad news. Because the NBA has since lost one of the most special landscapes......"
???? The world's media wanted to find the actor in the incident, Henson, and hear what he had to say about his retirement. But no matter when he called, Henson's phone never went through.
Even Larry. Bird was so frustrated that he once publicly said, "Journalists, don't come to me to inquire about Henson. Joe's news, because even I don't know where he is. Maybe that guy is on the moon right now. Don't you think it's unreliable? Well, it's right to think it's unreliable. ”
And the only way the world can learn about Henson is through Spike. Lee's documentary called "The Back of the Legend".
The documentary faithfully chronicles Henson. Joe's legendary 13-14 season, from the beginning of the season he said "to level the league"
Beginning, all the way to the daily life of the team he leads.
From the three months he recuperated in the hospital, the relationship with Anjiali was sublimated, and until he returned to the miracle of winning the championship with a complete victory.
Spike. Lee got his wish and put a real Henson. Joe was presented in front of everyone, and people found that the Chinese who was usually extremely arrogant actually studied the video in private to heart failure.
The head of the church, who usually has a dirty mouth, was forced to be so annoyed by the reporters. The guy who always sits on the bench and crosses Erlang's legs and pretends to be forced is so serious on the training ground.
Spike. Lee's documentary sometimes makes people laugh, sometimes it makes people worry, sometimes it makes people's blood boil, and sometimes it makes people sour.
It turned out that Henson. Joe isn't just a jerk, he's a flesh-and-blood guy who's so funny. It turned out that Henson. Joe's success is not accidental, he is a workaholic who has no regard for his body and can sacrifice everything for the sake of victory.
As soon as the documentary was released, it was robbed by major TV stations and online video platforms. Even CCTV has asked Spike. Lee bought the broadcast rights. You know, CCTV is almost never bought for sports star documentaries.
The only sports star documentary that has been shown on the movie channel is "Yao Next Year", which tells the history of Yao Ming's growth. Even the documentary "Lin Crazy", CCTV has never been introduced.
In this regard, Spike. Li is extremely proud: "This is one of the most satisfying works of my directorial career, and I only hope that everyone can see through this documentary what kind of coach and what kind of person Henson is." ”
Henson sometimes thinks that he won't look for Spike. Li asked for some dividends from the movie's income, which was a real loss.
Well, just as the world's media are looking for Henson, the Chinese-American coach is on a leisurely vacation with his fiancée in Brazil.
This year, Henson didn't have to go to Chicago for a joint tryout, and he didn't have to go into a wry battle with the cunning old men for a few kids under twenty.
He doesn't have to run all over the United States, just to sign a player. He didn't have to painstakingly practice his conversation skills to convince a team's general manager to accept his trade.
Now he just needs to spend time with his fiancée and enjoy his long vacation. That's why Henson thought about "whether to knock Spike or not. Li Yiyi: "This kind of boring question.
??? This kind of treatment naturally makes Anjiali enjoy it very much, and it has been six years since she met Henson. She watched the man from a man to even Abby. The little scout, whom Hornacek couldn't even look down on, became the most intimidating figure in the league.
But in six years, she hasn't been happier than she is now. Because now she doesn't have to worry about waking up one morning and Henson suddenly disappearing. She didn't have to worry about Henson going back to work on the never-ending work halfway through the holiday.
Of course, she didn't have to worry about waking up to find him lying in the intensive care unit of the hospital, dying with various instruments to monitor his life.
This woman's heart finally has a sense of security, from childhood to adulthood, from Vivek to Henson, she finally has a man by her side who can accompany her.
And until the end of the draft, the NBA free agent market and transfer market opened. People seem to suddenly remember that even if this world is without Henson. Joe, too, is going to keep running.
This year is a year full of big names in the free sector, led by the first group led by James, Anthony, Boss, Wade, Gasol, Nowitzki, Randolph, plus Lowry, Bledsoe, Monroe, etc., who have made this year's transfer market highly anticipated.
The NBA's personnel changes are flooding again, but what people didn't expect was that the first explosive transfer news this summer came from the Pacers.
The Indianapolis Star said that after the free agent market opened, the Pacers' first priority was to renew Stephenson's contract, and the Pacers officially made a video to pay tribute to Stephenson. And Stephenson also publicly stated at the season summary meeting that he is willing to stay in Indiana. However, now, the contract renewal negotiations between the two sides are not going well, which also makes other teams see an opportunity to poach.
The main reason the talks stalled was that Stephenson thought the Pacers' five-year, $44 million annual salary was too low.
As soon as this incident was exposed, it immediately shocked the media of all parties. Because during Henson's tenure, the Pacers never had such a thing as a contract extension not going well.
Even Wesley. Matthews' exodus was "forced" by Henson.
Therefore, the Pacers were suddenly revealed to be unwilling to renew their contract because of salary reasons, which caught everyone off guard.
Before the new season began, the impact of Henson's departure was already beginning to be felt.
Larry. Bird is undoubtedly the most nervous and busiest person right now, because in the next few years, the Pacers' bunch of "child labor contracts" expire, which will cause a series of difficult renewal problems. Stephenson's case was just an appetizer.
In the past, Bird didn't have to worry about these things at all, because all the players were willing to follow in the footsteps of the Chinese coach.
And now, everything has changed.
Henson had only been gone for less than a month when Bird began to miss him.
No more Henson. Joe's walker, I don't know what it will become......
