When Drew Sr. lost control of the game, Henson regained control of the game. This matchup in the banker's life arena actually lost its suspense.

Stephenson's strong offense made Jenkins unable to defend at all. His speed and height disadvantage were infinitely magnified in front of an angry Stephenson.

Finson brought all his energy on the streets of Harlem to the basketball court, and Step-back shots after dummering, three-point shots after receiving the ball, driving layups, violent slams, tough defenses, and brilliant steals in the second half of this game, Stephenson showed all the qualities he possessed.

The first half was defeated by Shervin. The fighting spirit and anger aroused by Mark, Henson threw all his brains on Jenkins.

Seeing that Stephenson's score and the gap between the two teams were about to go down by 20, Drew Sr. couldn't sit back any longer. He retook Sherwin. Mark, hopefully this solid defender can teach a lesson to a hurried Stephenson. But when Mark came on, Henson was replaced by Chris. Paul!

Now it's not Larry. Drew followed Henson for a substitution, and it was Henson who in turn targeted Larry. Drew substitution! In this way, the Hawks' starting point guard Jeff. Teague didn't get much of a chance to perform. Old Drew's mess was all in ruins, and all this was just because of a Livingston who wasn't in his plans! Simply because of a "waste".

Shervin. Mark's defense is good, but not good enough to contain Chris. Paul's point. The energetic Paul scored six points in a row as soon as he came up, watching the Pacers' scoring rise and the Hawks' scoring did not move for a long time, and the mood of Drew and his players changed from excitement to despair at the beginning.

The Pacers played more and more smoothly, and after the third quarter, the original scorching score became 83-63. At halftime, the Pacers led by just four points, and now, the margin has been stretched to 20 points!

During the break, Henson spoke to reporters. Of course, the questions are mostly about Livingston.

"I don't know what Coach Drew thinks of Sean, but if it were me, I wouldn't underestimate him."

Henson laughs at the camera, and on the stage, Bill. Wharton hadn't been silent for a long time

In the crucial fourth quarter, the Hawks' bench lineup finally came into play, with Mark, Scott, and Jenkins blossoming inside and out. But the defending champions didn't let the Eagles linger for long, and in the final moments, Henson emphasized the inside offense and reasserted the advantage of the inside. Although the outside line continued to play iron, with the cooperation of Horford and "Birdman" Anderson, the Pacers also scored three frontcourt rebounds in a row, and all three times became secondary offenses. Stephenson, who had 20 points, 5 assists and 6 rebounds today, made a crucial steal with 2:08 left in the game, burying the Hawks' last hope of chasing points.

In the end, the Pacers defeated the Atlanta Hawks at home 106-88. After losing to the Chicago Bulls in the last game, Henson managed to avoid losing streak and take a 62-8 record! The Pacers have 12 games to play, and they only need to win 10 of them to tie the Bulls' record of 72 wins!

Now, no one is going to say that there is no hope for the Pacers!

Today, the Pacers players still played very evenly and didn't let the Hawks put up their own game. Chris. Paul has been playing as long as Stephenson has been on the pitch and as planned. Henson not only saved the player's stamina, avoided the risk of injury, but also won the victory!

With 72 wins while taking a rest, Henson knows exactly what he's planning!

Today, Stephenson, who played 24 minutes and scored 20 points, five assists, six rebounds and two steals, was named the best player of the game. Benefit from John. Jenkins' immature defense and Drew's misalignment allowed Stephenson to bounce back after a poor first half.

Therefore, after the game, Stephenson also surrounded the most reporters. But to Henson's delight, Sean. Livingston, the guard who has been absent from the NBA for almost three months, has also been favored by reporters.

Although Livingston only played 11 minutes today, he did not score again after scoring seven points in a row. But anyone who knows the ball knows that Livingston's role today is not something that the data can show. If it weren't for his sudden appearance, Larry. Drew and his eagles aren't going to mess with themselves. If it weren't for his sudden appearance, there would be no Stephenson's later scoring performance.

This time, there was no sympathy in the eyes of those who looked at Livingston, only respect and admiration, plus a little surprise.

No one would say that he was a piece of waste who could only appear in garbage time, and he proved with his actions that he hadn't fallen to that point. Of course, it also proves once again how unique Henson's vision is.

The knee was once completely shattered, so what? He was the hero who turned the tide of the game and saved the team, a crucial step for Henson to regain control of the game.

NBA, Lao Tzu is back!

"Now, everyone can shut up! I've always believed in him and I only put players I believe in. So, don't question him anymore, it's not for nothing that I chose him as the team's last reinforcement before they hit the championship. ”

In the post-match press conference, Henson was quite proud. Especially in the know, Larry. Drew said more than once in the interview just now that "we shouldn't ignore Livingston".

Although Henson hates this kind of thing, he knows in his heart that professional basketball is so cruel. If Livingston doesn't perform after playing in this game, then countless doubts after the game will not only drown out Livingston, but also Henson himself, who decided to sign Livingston!

So right now, Henson won't be modest. He satirized Drew and the media that ignored Livingston before the game. If you win, you have to be crazy, because when you lose, there is no one to beat you.

What is the measure of success? It's the result, not the process. People don't stand on Livingston's side because of his inspirational story. But once you help the team win the game, it's all back!

It's just a trick up to Henson's old rival Larry. Drew, who is said to have been crushed by the Pacers for the fourth time this season, said that night, after the Hawks were routed by the Pacers. Drew received a call from Hawks management.

According to Wojnarowski's revelations, the phone look like this, "The regular season has been a complete failure, and we have been nailed to the pillar of shame." If this year's playoff team can't make it past the first round, then Drew, we're probably going to have to do something else this summer. ”

Henson only shook his head slightly when he touched Conna's head at home and saw the report, he didn't feel sad because he felt sorry for the enemy. In the world of competitive sports, sympathy is not tolerated.

What's more, there is now another thing that makes Henson even happier.

After defeating the Eagles, it means that there is less than a week left until the end of March. That is, Ray. Aaron and David. The day of West's return to the team has also entered the countdown stage.

When a full-fledged Pacer with Livingston reappears, Henson will prove it to the world.

Winning 72 wins while taking turns to rest at the same time sounds like a dream, but it can really become a reality.
