"Do you just want to experiment with it, or do you want it to become a regular tactic for the team!?"

When Vogel heard Henson's crazy idea, the guy who had gone from pre-medical student, video editor, and all the way to assistant coaching, was taken aback. Because Henson's ideas sound even crazier than his experience!

Becky. Harmon and Fraser didn't comment directly, just opened their mouths wide. Because they feel that they can't keep up with Henson's thinking, and they have no perspective at all.

"I want to experiment with it, and of course I want it to be part of the regular tactics. You know, when it comes to the playoffs, the more tricks we have, the better. Let's give it a try and start with the next game. I've studied the Celtic lineup, and the next game is just a breeding ground for us to put that idea into practice. Henson spread his hands undeniably, he was used to being looked at by him with astonishment.

"I'm not against you, Henson. But it is unrealistic to turn this idea into part of a conventional tactic. First of all, we didn't have enough time to rehearse. Secondly......"

"What's next? Frank? ”

"Second, you have to be prepared to accept failure and criticism." Vogel said, gesturing to Henson's chest.

Henson certainly has the ability to accept failure and criticism, but he doesn't necessarily have the heart to it.

"It's okay, it's just a transitional lineup, it's just a transitional lineup, we're not going to keep this lineup on the pitch for long. So if the effect is not good, we can correct it immediately. But if it works...... Guys, we've got another killer idea. For this afternoon's training, let's arrange it and let the players practice this style of play. I'll be honest with you, I've been excited about this for days. ”

Vogel shook his head, "Then let's give it a go." ”

Vogel knew that Henson's plan sounded very unreliable. But one of the most terrifying things about Henson is that he can turn unreliable things into reliable ones. Many of his substitutions and strategies were considered unreliable until they were successful. Therefore, Vogel and the coach did not refute Henson's reasons either.

During this afternoon's media session, the big-mouthed Stephenson nervously told reporters, "We're practicing an extremely crazy style of play!" I'm sure the whole league will think we're crazy! ”

After hearing the news, reporters also surrounded Henson, and Henson was not angry about Stephenson's "leaking" behavior.

Anyway, tomorrow, the whole world will see what he will do.

"It's been in vain that you're asking me now, and I'm not going to say anything. When tomorrow's game starts, you'll be able to see what changes have been made. Now, go home, sir. Because all your questions will be answered in the competition. ”

Seeing Henson's understatement, the reporters swallowed their saliva instead. It seems that the success rate of the Celtics in blocking the Pacers is decreasing little by little......

"God knows if Coach Henson and Stephenson colluded to confuse the public, and these two guys are telling fewer lies?"

"Maybe there's no such thing as a 'crazy style of play' at all, it's just a small way for Henson and Stephenson to disrupt the Celtics' preparations."

In order to prove that Henson is just talking nonsense, some reporters even dug up the stalks of the finals the year before last, "Say a joke: Chris. Paul will miss three games. ”

On March 1, the day of the Pacers-Celtics game, the media was overwhelmingly reporting the news of the game between the two teams. And one of the hottest topics is what Stephenson called "extremely crazy play".

Of course, most reporters thought that Henson and Stephenson, the ruffian master and apprentice, were simply confusing the public. This kind of damage trick has never been used by Henson.

In the afternoon, at North Shore Gardens, Celtics coach and former Indiana Pacers assistant coach Stevens was interviewed. Well, of course, the problem is also related to this matter.

"I don't care, I just want the team to run the way I planned. As for Coach Henson's strategy, I don't care. To be honest, I care more about Coach Henson's heart than about his strategy. ”

Stevens' answer was an understatement, and it seemed lighthearted. It's not that Stevens isn't afraid of Henson, who has seen his creativity and disruption after working with him for a year last season. So, Henson does have the ability to come up with an "extremely crazy style of play".

But even so, so what? Stevens couldn't have predicted what this "crazy style of play" would be. So, he didn't bother to worry about it at all. If there is any unexpected situation, it must be solved by on-the-spot command. Now even if Stevens breaks his heart, it won't help.

In that case, why bother?

Two hours before the game, Stevens finally met Henson and his familiar Pacers at the North Shore Garden Arena. Although this game was hyped by the outside world, Celtic has also become a new generation of "Henson finishers".

But when the two managers met, the atmosphere was very friendly. The two hugged warmly and chatted and laughed. Stevens mainly asked about Henson's health, while Henson asked more about whether Stevens' job was going well.

"The Celtics' uniform is a lot more complex than the Pacers. I'm exaggerating, workplace struggles are much worse here than in Indianapolis! And Danny. Angie is a cunning old fox with no human touch, you must be careful. Being a head coach at Celtic is not an easy job. ”

"Don't worry, Henson, at least I'm doing a good job now. By the way, the incident that Lance told the media yesterday...... What exactly are you arranged? You don't need to be so ruthless against me. Before parting, Stevens couldn't help but ask Henson a game-related question.

"You don't expect me to tell you about this game in advance, do you?" Henson smiled mysteriously, "The only thing I can tell you is that this time I didn't lie. You'd better be prepared for any eventuality, Brad. ”

patted Stevens on the shoulder, and the two parted.

When Henson crossed the halfway line, he and Stevens were no longer good friends, but fierce rivals!

Henson knows very well how capable Stevens is, and it is very necessary to deal with this kind of guy with some special means......

"Whatever Coach Henson is planning, he's digging his own grave! Stevens has only been with the Celtics for one season, and he has already established a relatively well-established system. That's why we've always been able to pull off big wins this season. If Coach Henson had arrogantly thought he could use North Shore Gardens as a laboratory for experimental tactics, he wouldn't have been able to eat and walk around. ”

Before the start of the game, the Celtics queen commentator Sean . Grande smiled and expressed his opinion. The reason why he said this with a smile was to emphasize his contemptuous attitude towards the matter.

"The Celtics' offensive performance this season has been very consistent, and the team system that Coach Stevens brings to the table has allowed many of the Celtics players to play beautiful numbers. If nothing else, even Jeff. Green has been reborn under Coach Stevens. This season, Jeff. Green is averaging a career-high 16.9 points per game. There's no doubt that it's Coach Stevens' system that has given Green plenty of opportunities. ”

"And if Coach Henson's special tactics were true, they had only been preparing for a day. In front of Coach Stevens, who has built a very robust system, Coach Henson is digging his own grave for any cleverness. ”

Sean. Grande's statement has been recognized by many fans and media, who believe that even for the Pacers, the game against the Celtics should be based on stability. However, Henson wondered what about the Celtics experimenting with new tactics?

They believe that the coach who underestimated the Celtics would fail because of his arrogance.

But in fact, Henson never underestimated the Celtics from beginning to end. The reason why he wants to make some changes is precisely because he values Stevens' team very much.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the game officially began. When the starters on both sides stepped onto the court, it was discovered that the Pacers' lineup had not changed at all.

CP3, George, Jimmy. Butler, David. West and Al. Horford, Henson has been using this set of starters since his return. And Stephenson, who was so excited to "leak" to the media, was still sitting on the bench today and did not get the chance to start.

"Is Coach Henson really just trying to confuse the public?" Sean. Grande smiled, "If Coach Henson confuses before the game, it can only mean one thing, he's scared of the Celtics!" ”

The royal commentary of a single team like Grande is generally very subjective. But because of this, narrators like him are usually only well-known in the local area.

Stevens didn't let his guard down because Henson fielded a regular starter, after all, no one has stipulated that changes to the game must start with the starter.

The Celtics' starting line-up was the same as before, with Rajan. Rondo plays the number one position, Jerry. Bayless replaced the injured Bradley as the starting point guard. Up front, reborn by Jeff. Green and Brandon. Bass Partner. And because of his love affair with Kardashian, Chris, a white insider in the United States, became popular. Humphries, on the other hand, stood in the number five position.

Henson squinted at Buss and Humphries, the two interior lines of the Celtics can be said to be very mini. Brandon. Buzz is only 2.03 meters tall, which is not as good as George. Humphries has always played power forward before, and he is only 2.06 meters tall.

You know, Al. Horford has always been considered a short center. But his height is 2.08 meters. Humphries, however, is two centimeters shorter than Horford.

These two guys are exactly the capital of Henson who dares to come up with a bold idea!

When Sean on the commentary seat. While Grande was still touting that "Stevens made Henson nervous and scared", Henson's crazy strategy was already surging undercurrent......
