"Meng, I didn't expect you to lose in my hands one day, hahahaha。。。。。。" On November 7, 2005, at Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Mike Budenholzer, who led the Atlanta Hawks to a home victory over the Pacers, was pulling Meng Xu with a spring breeze and chatting about "home", it was obvious that Mike Budenholzer was very excited about the victory over Meng Xu and the Pacers, and for any ambitious Eastern team, Meng Xu and the Pacers were their number one target.

Mike Budenholzer, who resigned because of the conflict between the idea of building the team and the Warriors, took over the mess of the Atlanta Hawks this season and became the new head coach of the Hawks. Dio, and this season's star Marvin Williams, the Atlanta Hawks quickly rejuvenated in the new season, in the 4 games after the start of the new season, the Atlanta Hawks actually won all the games and ranked first in the East, and also defeated the Pacers who were the first in the East last season at home today, today's victory, but Mike Budenholzer defeated the team led by Meng Xu for the first time in his solo coaching career, so after the game, when Meng Xu came to greet him, Mike Budenholzer is also very "majestic".

"Mike, you're proud now!" Compared with the limelight Mike Budenholzer, Meng Xu is now in trouble, because a large number of main players are suspended, the Pacers' record after the start of the new season is a mess, first in the opening game with the Heat, the lack of Meng Xu, Jermaine O'Neal, James Posey, Tony Allen's Pacers were slaughtered by the Heat for 35 points, and then Meng Xu came back from the ban, but Meng Xu, who led the team alone, led the Pacers to lose to the Nets and the Cavaliers, and lost to the Hawks on the road today, After four consecutive defeats in the opening game, Meng Xu can now imagine what kind of uproar the New York media that have been staring at him since the offseason will cause an uproar tomorrow.

Because Jermaine O'Neal is still in the ban period, in the few games after Meng Xu's comeback, the Pacers' tactics are basically Meng Xu's singles with the ball, so in the game with the Nets and the Cavaliers, Meng Xu won the data but lost the game, a 40+10, a 30+ triple-double, in terms of personal data, Meng Xu defeated LeBron James and Vince Carter, but it was useless, lost the game, no matter how good the data is, it will be questioned and brushed the data, especially those media who indiscriminately blacked Meng Xu. Now he has begun to make a big fuss about this matter, and the New York Times even joked that without Jermaine O'Neal, Meng Xu would not even win.

In today's game, Jermaine O'Neal, who has been lifted from the ban, doesn't seem to have found the feeling of the game, and the head coach of the Hawks, Mike Budenholzer, also played a new trick and carried out a frenzied bag on Meng Xu, from Stephen Johnson, Josh Smith, to Joe Johnson, to Josh Childis, Marvin Williams, several swing men of the Atlanta Hawks, one counts as one, all wheel battles, taking turns to constantly consume Meng Xu, and Meng Xu was crazy in the bag, With Jermaine O'Neal, the Pacers' interior centerpiece in a bad hand, the Hawks won by eight points at home.

The start of the four-game losing streak is already the worst start for the Pacers in the last dozen seasons, and considering that the Pacers will next leave for the West, to the top three in Texas as a guest, away to face the Spurs, Mavericks, and Rockets, so the Pacers' losing streak is likely to continue, as the first in the East for four consecutive seasons, three championships, if it really starts with seven consecutive defeats, it will definitely be a big news, so how to avoid continuing the losing streak, It has become the primary problem that Meng Xu and the Pacers have to face now, when they think of playing the Spurs away, the Pacers have little confidence, especially Jermaine O'Neal, who has been educated by Tim Duncan for many years, and even more so when he mentions Tim Duncan.

"My path has just begun, how can I be like you, I have four rings in my hand at a young age." Mike Budenholzer won two championships with the Spurs as an assistant coach, but as a head coach, Mike Budenholzer's coaching career was not very successful. In the end, he had to choose to resign, but fortunately, after a season of rest, Mike Budenholzer ushered in a chance to show his strength and became the head coach of the Atlanta Hawks, and now it seems that Mike Budenholzer is doing a good job, maybe the Hawks can return to the playoffs this season, of course, for Mike Budenholzer, the playoffs are only the lowest goals, and the finals and championships are his ultimate goals.

"Hahaha, Mike, I'm sure, with me for a day, you won't be able to get out of the East, let's see you in Indianapolis." After hugging Mike Budenholzer gently, Meng Xu said something that made Mike Budenholzer very unhappy, and then walked into the player's tunnel without looking back.

"This bastard." After scolding with a smile, Mike Budenholzer turned around and went to greet the group of young men under his command, this group of young men once again made Mike Budenholzer see hope and the future, and also made Mike Budenholzer think of the youth army he organized in the Warriors, but Mike Budenholzer also knew in his heart that he still had a long way to go when he thought of taking this group of inexperienced young men to win the championship, and the Pistons and Heat were all hurdles that he needed to overcome. Especially the Pacers, as Meng Xu just said, as long as Meng Xu's Pacers still exist for one day, he is a big mountain that is difficult for all Eastern teams to overcome.
