564: The long-awaited counterpoint

"You don't know anything about ball, and when you figure out why Antetokounmpo was able to get $100 million and you can only be on the scene occasionally, you'll interview me."

Before the game began, when Henson said this to the little-known CBS reporter, the reporter cursed Henson in his heart. The team that cursed him lost badly today, cursing Antetokounmpo, the new Mr. billion, for his poor performance.

Of course, Henson's arrogant attitude naturally annoyed many fans who didn't like him in the first place. How could he be so rude to a new journalist? It's just a social scumbag!

You see, when they were scolding Henson for being a scumbag, they didn't think about whether they were also rude. So these keyboard warriors and virgin are really unable to communicate sometimes. Playing double standards with them, Henson has to bow to the wind.

But when the game came to the end and the two sides were about to be decided, all the pre-game curses at Henson and questioned Antetokounmpo shut up.

Because no matter whether the Pacers can win today or not, Antetokounmpo's performance will certainly not be faulty......

"Antetokounmpo is on the inside, and this time, he seems to want to play in the low post!"

Reggie with eyes on the pitch. Miller raises his pitch, and Antetokounmpo has changed his tactics again!

CP3 used to be the biggest name for the Pacers, but now, he's volunteered to be Antetokounmpo and Paul. The "green leaves" next to George.

So, as long as Antetokounmpo and George ask for the ball, CP3 will mostly not refuse.

This season, Paul is averaging just 17.2 points per game, but he's averaging 10.2 assists per game. This shows the change in his role in the team.

This time was no exception, as Paul stopped outside the three-point line and expertly hoisted the ball to Antetokounmpo. Paul has a good chemistry with everyone on the Pacers, and he knows what force and angle is most comfortable to pass to each different person.

Perhaps, this is the difference between a master ball-controlling man and an average point guard.

Antetokounmpo received a basket in the low post, and at the same time, Brooke Brown. Lopez pulled to the outside of the three-point line. Dedmon gritted his teeth, and although he wanted to guard the basket, he couldn't ignore the 34.6 percent shooting percentage of his three-pointers.

I had no choice but to follow out. As a result, the inside line formed a one-on-one situation between Antetokounmpo and Aldridge!

The rest of the Spurs didn't dare to wrap it up, because the Pacers' three-pointers had already cost the Spurs before.

Antetokounmpo began to squeeze Aldridge with his back, and Aldridge, although much stronger than he was during his time with the Trail Blazers, was never a "meat shield" insider. His ability to carry hard in the low post is not bad, but it is not much better.

Antetokounmpo squeezed back inch by inch, looking for an opportunity in the simplest and roughest way. It's been a long time since you've seen a striker play so rough and classic, but Antetokounmpo is another unconventional player.

Just as Antetokounmpo stepped into the box, he suddenly changed his pace and turned around to break through!

Aldridge did not dare to slack off and reacted immediately. As everyone knows, Antetokounmpo retracted the basketball, turned in the opposite direction, and threw the ball to the rebound.

Fantastic dance moves in the low position! Antetokounmpo played Aldridge on the inside, as if he could attack any way and score efficiently.

The basketball grabs the rebound and refracts into the net, and Aldridge's defense fails again! And people no longer know that this is the first time Antetokounmpo has defeated Aldridge today.

Before the game, the CBS reporter was right, "Antetokounmpo is a player who is against the times."

How other strikers play, Antetokounmpo doesn't care. He likes to play the way he wants, the way Henson taught him, to be exact.

A mid-range shot? Three points through the clouds? A quick change of direction under the crotch? Antetokounmpo was simply dismissive.

This guy only used the way of dodging under the basket, European step breakthroughs in large arcs, flying fast breaks, and squeezing his back inch by inch to the inside, chiseling through the Spurs' defense.

At every timeout, Henson would tell Antetokounmpo to attack in a different way. But no matter how it is changed, Antetokounmpo is up to the task. For example, just now, the reason why Antetokounmpo chose to play with his back was also instructed by Henson during the last timeout.

It's not scary to have a monster on a team, but the scariest thing is to have a coach who can use monsters.

Isn't it more deterrent for people who can control monsters?

So far, Antetokounmpo has scored his 40th personal score tonight! As Henson thought, Antetokounmpo, who had just signed a big contract, was excited. He remembers that several years ago, Paul. Before George was so famous, he burst out in the second half of the season and continued to play superstar for two months.

And this year, there is a good chance that the same thing will happen to Antetokounmpo.

Aldridge, who failed to defend, looked up at the big screen in disappointment, and the Spurs were eight points behind in the last two minutes because of Antetokounmpo's goal just now.

The low-key and reserved No. 12 striker can't be said to be without hard work, but Antetokounmpo doesn't reason with him at all!

He made 16 of 21 shots from the field, along with nine rebounds, three assists and four blocks. He didn't attempt a three-point shot, and the two points he was furthest from the basket were just right to the paint line.

Ordinary people would have been exhausted to death long ago. But Antetokounmpo almost dragged the Spurs to death.

"Pause, pause!" Popovich yelled helplessly, and Henson's shrewd guy used Antetokounmpo to the core.

At the beginning, Henson let Antetokounmpo carry the ball himself to push forward and create as much attacking threat as possible. With Dr. Antetoquin in high spirits, Aldridge couldn't stop his breakthrough at all.

As a result, Popovich asked the players to shrink and curb Antetokounmpo's momentum.

As a result, Henson immediately replaced Bogdanovic. Paul, George, Bojan and Lopez had four turrets on the perimeter, shooting the Spurs to the death.

Because of this, the Pacers gained the initiative in the game.

Then, Henson changed his routine. He asked Antetokounmpo to try to make a second in the low post, and once the Spurs got the trap, Antetokounmpo split the ball. Not to be trapped, Antetokounmpo's goal rate is very high.

All night, Popovich was led by the nose by Henson. So, don't look at Antetokounmpo who scored 40 points today. But with Henson's use, Antetokounmpo is far more effective than 40 points.

Seeing Popovich call a timeout, Henson slightly hooked the corners of his mouth. Today, the game has been under his control, and Popovich must have been burned out. In the final two minutes, Henson was intent on ending Popovich's troubles.

He's going to shut up the game.

"In the last quarter, George, you get into the second position and use your height to assault Ginobili. Janis, you play the number three position. Your mission is simple, to contain Leonard's offense and prevent him from leading the offensive wave. Fry, defend Aldridge, don't let him take the ball easily. Listen, the Spurs aren't good anymore. We just need a little bit more to kill the game. Don't make a mistake at the last minute! ”

Antetokounmpo vs. Leonard? If you want to see it so much, then it will be done for you!

Henson's arrangement undoubtedly suppressed the Spurs' outside line with his height. Ginobili at 1.98m against George at 2.06m. Antetokounmpo at 2.11m against Leonard at 2m.

As for Aldridge, he has been devastated to the point of losing confidence today. Henson believes that in the final two minutes, Frye will not be blown up. And no matter how bad it is, he still has Siakam's insurance.

And just like that, Henson completed his formation. When people find Channing. Everyone was excited when Frye stepped into the fray and Antetokounmpo stepped back to the number three position.

"Coach Henson asked Antetokounmpo to play small forward in the last minute! In other words, the long-awaited showdown will be played out in the last two minutes of the game! See, Coach Henson isn't unsympathetic. He saved the best matchup for the last two minutes! ”

Reggie. Miller is just as excited as the fans, and who doesn't love a showdown between stars and stars?

But Popovich knew Henson well, and he knew that the guy didn't care about the fans' feelings. Whether the game is good or not has never been Henson's concern. All he cares about is victory.

Let Antetokounmpo play the number three position, Henson's purpose is to kill himself at all!

"You bastard." Popovich shook his head, Henson is completely using his Spurs as a springboard for Antetokounmpo to resound through the league.
