On Feb. 16, the Pacers beat the Hawks at home and completed their second back-to-back schedule of the season with a 2-1 record.

Two days ago, the biggest concern was what the Pacers could do in this three-game rotor battle. But when the back-to-back games were over, people weren't interested in the Pacers' results.

Zaza. Pachulia stepped Paul, West elbowed Pachuria, Stephenson yelled at the Georgian, and Henson played against Larry after the game. Drew's disdain, Henson and West disappeared on their way to the toilet at the press conference...... All of these non-basketball topics sparked a discussion that overshadowed the game itself.

So much so that the Pacers' 2-1 record was mostly just a sentence in the media, and then they began to talk about other "more exciting" things.

Among them, the most talked about is undoubtedly the rumors that the Pacers players collectively surrounded Pachulia after the game.

According to multiple reporters in the tunnel at the time, Paul took West and Anderson to knock on the front door of the visiting dressing room, but was immediately stopped by stadium security personnel.

Stephenson was later spotted alone at the back door of the away dressing room at the Consec Arena. After he knocked on the door, it was Joe. Johnson opened the door.

In the words of the reporter: "Johnson opened the door and looked at Stephenson for a few seconds, said nothing, and then slammed the door shut. Stephenson didn't know what to do, so he scratched his head and left. ”

"Hahahahahaha, this description is really too vivid!" Looking at the reporter's description of Stephenson on the news, Henson laughed out loud.

Although the outside world thought that these reporters were talking about rumors, in fact, Stephenson was indeed this funny reaction at the time!

After last night's game, Henson also went out in person, ready to go to the Hawks' locker room to ask for an explanation for Paul. However, as soon as he reached the main entrance, Henson was escorted by the security personnel.

Then Henson wanted to go to the back door. But as soon as he got there, he bumped into the embarrassing picture of Johnson and Stephenson staring at each other, closing the door, and then Stephenson scratching his head stupidly. Stephenson turned his head just in time to see Henson, and he gave his trademark smirk.

Stephenson, sometimes you don't even know what he's thinking. He rushed out with a majestic spirit, and finally came back with a smirk, without saying a word during the process.

As soon as the news of the "Pacers entrapment tactically encircled Pachuria" was exposed, it caused a lot of ...... Lots of comedic effects!

So the day after the game, fans around the world tried to reconstruct the story through the fragmented reports of journalists. And in order to make the "commentary" more vivid, many fans have added some very funny animated pictures to this incident.

Not to mention other people, even Henson, the person concerned, can laugh when he sees those analyzed posts or news.

As Henson snickered in his office, Vogel knocked on Henson's office door.

"Poof...... Come in. Henson immediately stifled his laughter, trying to pretend to be serious.

As soon as Vogel entered, he narrowed his eyes and glanced at Henson. There is no doubt that Henson's unnatural expression has been seen through by his own teaching assistant.

“...... Hahahahaha, I can't hold it back. Did you see those reports? Hahaha, it's too vividly said. Did you see the GIFs that the fans were doing about it? Simply ......"

Henson slapped the table and laughed for a long time, but found that Vogel was unmoved, so he held back, and then cleared his throat: "What's the matter with me, man." ”

"Chris. Paul's physical examination report was incredible, and he didn't even have a mild sprain. With that, Vogel placed a report on Henson's desk, "Yesterday's replay shows that Chris's foot when he landed didn't completely avoid success, but twisted it at a very exaggerated angle. But after a closer inspection, everything is normal. ”

"That's what God is looking for us, Frank. The world is fair, and a rotten person like Pachulia will never succeed. Henson casually rolled his report, looking very calm. But in fact, this guy is excited inside.

The reason why the Pacers didn't crash in the last game was because the fatigue reduction badge played a role. And Paul's incredible "resurrection" should also be the effect of the injury reduction level 3 badge.

If it weren't for the effect of the badge, Henson believed that Paul couldn't have been left without anything after being padded. Anyone who has ever played basketball knows how serious it is to step on something else when you land. Even a professional basketball player at the NBA level can't be so tenacious and resistant.

And after the victory over the Eagles, the XP Accumulate was once again rewarded by Henson. Henson chose the Quick Recovery Badge this time to upgrade his Quick Recovery to Level 2, which, combined with the reduction in Level 3 injuries he already had, undoubtedly minimized the impact of injuries on the team.

The more badges affect the game, the more Henson becomes obsessed with these things. After all, in recent times, the role of the badge is very intuitive. However, after this upgrade, the experience required for the next upgrade has been changed from 500 to 1000! It seems that Henson wants to be rewarded, and he has to work harder.

After winning the ball and receiving the reward, can Henson be in a bad mood? So in the face of a serious Vogel, Henson still has a hippie smile.

"This time it may be God who favors us, but next time it won't be so easy. I don't mean Chris, I mean you, Henson. As a manager, how could you be so uncalm yesterday. If you're sent off, who's going to direct the game? ”

"You." Henson replied with a smile without thinking.

"Okay, even if I can direct the game for you. How can you let them go to the away dressing room after the game and get someone else in trouble? The most incomprehensible thing to me is that you yourself are actually involved! If the two sides really started yesterday, whether your fists are for justice or revenge, you will be held legally responsible! More seriously, the alliance will certainly not stop there. Do you want to see Paul, West, Stephenson plus you banned for a season? Do you want to see what happened to the Auburn Hills Palace repeat itself with the Pacers? ”

Vogel's emotions were so emotional that Henson instantly became serious.

"Right...... I'm sorry Henson, I just ......" Vogel waved his hand quickly, and he realized that he might have just spoken a little too loudly.

"No, it's my duty to say I'm sorry, Frank. You're right, I seemed too impulsive last night. Henson wasn't smiling this time, but nodded at Vogel very seriously.

"You know, I'm a man sometimes...... It's true that I can't suppress my emotions. It's easy for me to say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing. But it's okay, I have you and Silas by my side. Thank you yesterday, and I promise that I will be careful in the future. ”

Vogel smiled, and lost his temper in an instant. Why did he work with O'Brien for so long, but finally willingly followed this rookie coach, it is not completely without reason.

Working with Henson, you don't feel like there's a hierarchy. He respects each of his assistants and listens to their advice. Not to mention that sometimes, Henson simply asked Vogel to set up his tactics. This kind of thing will never happen to O'Brien.

Vogel and Henson are like ice and fire, and Henson is fire, making a big fuss in front of everyone, building a roster for the team, and allowing the Pacers to win game after game in some unbelievable ways. Of course, he also endured everyone's abuse and attacks alone.

And Vogel is undoubtedly ice, when Henson is prone to chaos, when Henson is inexperienced, when Henson gets carried away or goes berserk, this "ice" will come out to cool down Henson, so that Henson can maintain a rational state to look at the problem.

The two have their own shortcomings, but they just complement each other. That's probably one of the reasons why the Pacers have risen so quickly.

"Let's go and see how the little ones are training. There are three more games to play All-Star, and before that, there is no way to go wrong. ”

Henson patted Vogel on the shoulder, and the two smiled at each other, and walked out of the office to start a new day of training.
