Antetokounmpo was well aware that the leader was unhappy with his performance.

Although already one of the top names of the Pacers, Antetokounmpo still has a sense of awe for Henson.

In many teams, the star of the house is not afraid of his manager at all. There are even those like James who took over the tactical board directly from the head coach. And there are countless examples of conflicts between the team's top card and the head coach.

But that's never going to happen to the Pacers, whether you're Antetokounmpo or Paul. No matter how strong George is, Henson is still the boss of the Pacers.

All these superstars can do is carry out Henson's orders.

So, after Henson yelled at him, Antetokounmpo instantly became serious.

He had to admit that he had just underestimated his enemies. He thought that Griffin would not pose any threat to him, but unexpectedly, Griffin came today with the determination to win.

From now on, though, Antetokounmpo can promise. Blake. Griffin's than the show, that's it!

Brogdon was steadily in control of the basketball from the outside. Jackson let him go and didn't press close to interfere with Brogdon's dribble.

I have to say, Reggie. Jackson's defense is really a joke. The reason why he didn't press close was because he didn't dare. He was afraid that he would be overtaken by Brogdon, so Jackson simply gave up pressing, and he was so "confident" in his defense.

In that regard, the Pistons are unlikely to achieve what the Clippers did. Beverley's defense isn't Reggie. Jackson was able to compare with Louis. Williams' offensive firepower Reggie. Jackson didn't have it either.

That's why Henson isn't optimistic about the Pistons at all, and if you want to beat the strong with the weak, it's not enough to rely on the efforts of just one player.

Reggie. Jackson's inaction gave Brogdon an easy chance to break through. Almost with a simple anterior redirection, Brogdon put Reggie . Jackson had a clean day.

Henson shook his head off the court, he really couldn't figure out why the Pistons were willing to renew Reggie with a 5-year, 80 million contract. Jackson. In Henson's eyes, to Reggie. Jackson's 20 million in 5 years is about the same.

His outstanding performance during the Thunder period cannot be treated as an iron rice bowl all the time.

After Brogdon broke through, the Pistons' defense had to shrink. Griffin, in particular, contracted particularly hard. Because he knows that Antetokounmpo doesn't have the ability to shoot from a distance, he can't overdo it. And Drummond was pulled to the outside by Lopez, and the task of protecting the frame could only fall to Griffin.

After the successful layup just now, he naturally hopes to prove himself with another volleyball cap.

Brogdon caught a glimpse of Griffin coming in to make up for it, and he wouldn't be stupid enough to challenge Griffin's authority. When he broke to the free throw line, he suddenly threw the ball high and Griffin looked at the basketball in amazement, thinking that Brogdon was going to throw it.

However, in the next second, Griffin felt a gust of wind hanging behind him. He hurriedly turned around, only to see that the Indianapolis No. 34 had already received a basketball in the air!

It's not a throw, it's an aerial relay! Antetokounmpo didn't really have the ability to shoot from a distance, but after being cleared by Griffin, he got an easy opportunity to cut inside.

Before Griffin could jump and interfere, Antetokounmpo had already completed a powerful two-handed slam dunk.

Aerial relay dunks are no easy task for Antetokounmpo, who only needs to take a light leap and straighten his arms to get his hands on the basketball.

Antetokounmpo responded to Griffin's goal with an open dunk, which was a tough response, and Brogdon's breakthrough was too easy. Jackson has to work harder! ”

The commentators all praised the offense just now, and after seeing Antetokounmpo's dunk, Henson also sat back on the bench with peace of mind.

Once Antetokounmpo gets serious, Griffin is done. Henson was convinced of this.

"Damn, we need to defend, defend!"

Griffin yelled at his teammates in dissatisfaction, but everyone knew that it was more like Griffin was talking to Reggie. Jackson expressed displeasure.

Former Raptors coach and current Pistons coach Devin Brown. Kessie also felt that the goal he had just conceded was not worth it, and he hoped that the team could quickly regain the advantage.

Playing against the Pacers must not be delayed until the last moment, because the Pacers' tactical execution ability in key rounds is obvious to all. Therefore, Casey needs the team to gain an advantage early.

He yelled at Griffin, but Henson didn't hear him. But if I'm not mistaken, Casey should want Griffin to continue to attack Antetokounmpo.

After all, Antetokounmpo was saddled with a foul early on. If you foul again, you should be forced off.

But Henson was defenseless against this. Because of the incident that allowed Griffin to storm Antetokounmpo...... Doesn't Casey think she's crazy?

Griffin controlled the ball beyond the three-point line, but this time he didn't attack directly, but made a few passes. But in the end, the basketball still fell into his hands.

Griffin, who received the basketball in the bottom right corner, first faked a shot and then broke through. It's one of his favourite ways to break through, and most forwards involuntarily lift their center of gravity up in the face of Griffin's duffle.

But Antetokounmpo didn't, because he didn't have to jump to interfere with the opposition's shots. Therefore, the center of gravity has not been raised very much.

As a result, Griffin's breakthrough was blocked by Antetokounmpo!

As a 2.11-meter-tall forward, Antetokounmpo is also averaging 1.3 steals per game this season. You can see how powerful his long arms are in interfering with the opponent's dribble.

This time was no exception, as Griffin was dribbling out of rhythm due to confrontation, Antetokounmpo suddenly reached out with his long arms.

Griffin didn't have time to react and had to watch the basketball being stabbed away by Antetokounmpo!

At the moment when the basketball was out of control, Antetokounmpo immediately took a big step, grabbed the basketball, and then held the ball and pushed it quickly!

By the time Griffin reacted to what had happened, Antetokounmpo had already run past half court.

In the face of Drummond's supplemental defense, Antetokounmpo shook off the defender with a skillful one-handed feint, and then went inside and easily slammed his arm to complete the dunk.

4-2, Antetokounmpo scored consecutive goals. And this time his defense against Griffin is simply crushing in all directions.

"Keep impacting, be careful!" Casey is still stubborn, and he still doesn't believe that the best player under his command can't even cause Antetokounmpo to commit a foul.

Griffin's impact has always been very strong, and the chance of a foul is also high. This can be seen from the number of free throws he averages 7.5 per game. Antetokounmpo relied more on hitting the basket than Griffin, and only averaged two more free throws per game than Griffin.

Griffin gritted his teeth when he heard Casey's roar, and he didn't want his pre-game impassioned speech to turn into a joke.

As a result, the former "pride of the sky" intends to score on Antetokounmpo's head for the third time.

This time, Griffin didn't boggle or turn his back, but instead held the ball like a defender to find his rhythm.

The other players of the Pistons team also really "gave face", and when they saw Griffin dribbling on the outside, they were all standing and watching! I didn't think about continuing to run to open up space or cut inside to find opportunities.

So, with the quality of the Pistons, it is surprising that Henson can reach the top eight in the East.

Griffin suddenly accelerates after a crotch dribble, and usually, he is not as strong as he is faster than Griffin. And the one who is stronger than Griffin can't stand Griffin's shaking.

But Antetokounmpo is different, not only does he have the strength to carry Griffin, but he also blasts Griffin to the ground in terms of footwork and height.

But Griffin doesn't care if he gets rid of the defense completely, his purpose is to make fouls!

So, while carrying Antetokounmpo, Griffin directly forced the frame! He believes that the only way Antetokounmpo wants to stop his forced layup is to foul!

I have to say that Griffin seems to think a little too highly of himself.

"Fight back, fight back!" Griffin had barely started jumping when Henson motioned for Brogdon to hurry to the frontcourt.

In the next second, the sound of the basketball being slapped came. Blake. Griffin's layup was slapped out of the front by Antetokounmpo!

Griffin's little short arm made Antetokounmpo cover effortlessly. Griffin thought that his shock would put pressure on Antetokounmpo, but in fact, in the eyes of the Greeks, Griffin was sent to death.

George received the basketball that had been fanned out, and when he looked up, Brogdon had already run to the front court at some point.

George didn't hesitate and threw the ball at Brogdon with a long pass from the back.

The older rookie was unkind, and when he picked up the basketball, four of the Pistons' five defenders were still in the Pacers' halfcourt. There is only one Reggie. Jackson came running, but only just past the halfway line.

In this way, Brogdon continued to widen the margin with a light layup.

And Antetokounmpo's steal and block also made Griffin's originally high morale suddenly drop.

It's so hard to get a foul on Antetokounmpo's head, and he seems to have suddenly noticed the gap between himself and Antetokounmpo.

"What are you doing? Fight harder, more ferocious! ”

However, Devon. Casey was still yelling at Griffin from the sidelines.

Henson smiled, Casey, probably hasn't figured out the situation yet.

But that's okay, when the game goes into garbage time early and Griffin's stats get dismal, Casey will understand.
