Chapter 184 Chapter 182: A Difficult Task
"Linsanity", Americans even created such a word specifically for the performance of that Chinese player.At this time, Henson was flipping through the news related to Jeremy Lin, or a more catchy name - Jeremy Lin.

In February, when this thing was at its height, Henson was busy playing back-to-backs.After back-to-back games, Henson is busy with the All-Star weekend.So this legendary story that shocked the basketball circles all over the world has little effect on Henson.

But looking back at Jeremy Lin's performance now, Henson really finds it a little unbelievable.

As a Chinese with a yellow skin, Henson is very clear about their situation in the American basketball circle.Thinking about how Posey and O'Brien treated him back then, Henson didn't dare to think about how the Knicks' teammates would treat Jeremy Lin.Because the competition between players is far more intense than the competition among coaches.

However, it was such a nobody who graduated from Harvard, lost the draft, was waived by many teams, and sat on the Knicks bench for most of the season, but seized an opportunity to make his name go down in history.

Henson didn't have time to study Jeremy Lin's magical performance in those 7 games. After all, the Pacers' opponent was not just a Knicks team.But only through an interview with Kobe, Henson can know how amazing Jeremy Lin is.

Before the game, the reporter asked Kobe: "How do you evaluate Jeremy Lin?"

Kobe: "Jeremy Lin? I don't know who he is."

After the game, the reporter asked Kobe again: "How do you evaluate Jeremy Lin?"

That night, Jeremy Lin scored 38 points at Staples.Kobe faced the camera, a little angry: "He almost scored 40 points on my head, you ask me how to evaluate him?"

What a competitive guy Kobe was, Henson knew very well.Jeremy Lin has succeeded in making Kobe say that after the game.

A small substitute led the Knicks without Anthony to a wave of 7 wins and 0 losses.Henson couldn't help shaking his head. Without the 7 wins and 0 losses, the Knicks would be in danger of even making the playoffs this year.

What happened to Jeremy Lin is indeed miraculous. If Henson is still a fan now, with the scarcity of yellow-skinned players in the NBA, it is estimated that he will also have an orgasm.

But at this time, as the head coach of an NBA team, Henson really didn't feel much when watching the opponent's players perform well.

What does it matter to me if other players perform well?Even if it's none of my business, I'll try to contain him instead of flattering him.

As for the relationship between Henson and Jeremy Lin's skin color. If that counts as a relationship, then most players in the NBA would not have to fight each other.

To put it bluntly, an enemy is an enemy.Henson will study Jeremy Lin sooner or later, but that is also to beat the Knicks.Therefore, yesterday when a reporter asked Henson what he thought of Jeremy Lin, Henson's answer was also very brief.

"I don't have any opinion. I haven't seen him. What can I think?"

Well, a typical "Hensonian" answer.

Before struggling with how to play back-to-back with the Knicks, Henson still has to lead the team safely through the test of three games.

Beating the Bulls doesn't mean the Pacers have achieved all of their goals this season.This can only prove that the Pacers are no longer afraid of the Eastern Conference champions, but it does not mean that they will run amok in the Eastern Conference.

The Hawks, Heat, and Magic. Henson almost vomited against these teams, but this time, these three opponents took turns.

However, after three games, the Pacers' record of 1 win and 2 losses certainly did not satisfy Henson, but it did not disappoint him.

Playing against the Eagles, 101 to 96, although the Pacers lost at the Phillips Center, it was not because of the lack of strength of the Pacers, but several controversial calls by the referees and the opponent's magic goal when the Pacers did a good job of defending, which led to this result.

After the game, Henson had no other choice but to spray the referee and the still rough Pachulia.After a season, there are always a few games that will be lost like this, and Henson is even a little used to it.Compared with the game itself, people are more concerned about whether the Eagles will also go to the visiting team's locker room to trouble the Pacers.

While playing the Magic, the Pacers won, 107 to 94, winning is an understatement.Van Gundy should be thankful, at least this time, the Pacers did not let him accept the humiliating score record.

Henson really didn't feel any pressure in this game. Even if Henson didn't make special arrangements for the Magic, the Pacers players knew what to do.Since the 4-1 elimination of the Magic in the playoffs last season, this Orlando blue team can no longer pose a threat to the Pacers.

Compared with the game itself, people are more concerned about the state of tearing skin between Howard and Van Gundy, as well as the upcoming large-scale ethical series this summer: Where are the Warcraft.

Therefore, this win, one loss and two games did not give Henson a very special feeling.After all, even the media and fans who like to watch the excitement don't pay attention to the game itself, which shows how ordinary these two games are.

What caught Henson the most was the game between the Eagles and the Magic, the Pacers lost to the Heat.

Ever since Thibodeau left the Conseco Arena in dismay, Henson realized it immediately.The biggest enemy of the Pacers in the East is no longer the Bulls, but the Miami Heat who have been developing steadily this season!
In the games before this season, the Heat and the Pacers each won one game, regardless of Zhong Bo.Henson wanted to have the upper hand today, but unexpectedly he fell behind.

The reason why Henson cares about this game is not just because of the loss, but because this game is not as dull as the previous two games.

On the contrary, this game was played very fiercely, and it can be said to be the most intense game between the two sides this season.How intense is it?It was so fierce that 48 minutes was not enough for both sides to decide the winner!
In the last 23 seconds of the game, the Heat led 95 to 92 by three points, and the whole Miami people thought they had the chance to win.But at this moment, Paul stood up again and used a three-pointer at the buzzer to drag the game into overtime.

After overtime, the two teams still couldn't draw the point difference.For the Heat, Henson really has nothing to do, because Spoelstra's tactics are not subtle, and he relies on the Big Three to take turns.And those three guys are not good stubble that can be easily contained with a few defensive tactics.

So in overtime, there was another three-pointer at the buzzer.Only this time, it was the walkers who were killed.

In the last 22 seconds of the game, the Heat had the ball.Wade, who had never made a three-point shot before, hit the net with a three-pointer at the last moment, piercing Henson's heart.

In this way, the Pacers and the Heat finally decided the winner through overtime and lore.

Henson has not encountered this kind of ups and downs in a game for a long time.He and the players made a lot of efforts in this game, but they were still unable to gain a substantial advantage.Nonsense, if you gain an advantage, you won't be killed by a three-pointer.

He persisted throughout the game, but lost to the "Flash" in the end with a three-pointer. This is the reason why Henson can't forget it for a long time.

The Miami Heat, unexpectedly, Henson's Pacers and this super team will also become sworn enemies one day.

Fortunately, the Pacers won the Magic immediately after this, so the morale of the players was not greatly affected.

At this point, Henson must consider a very important issue: how to avoid an early encounter with the Heat in the playoffs.

According to the current situation, if there are no major accidents, the top three teams in the Eastern Conference will most likely be the Bulls, Heat and Pacers.After all, the Celtics did not play well in the regular season, and the Magic. They really don't have the strength to compete for the top three this season.The Eagles are still playing the role of "shit stirrer", and the chances of breaking into the top three are not high.

It can be said that until now, the situation in the East has become relatively clear.But no matter who is the Pacers or the Heat, they will inevitably be assigned to the second half of the playoffs, and they will inevitably meet in advance.

It's not that Henson is afraid of the Heat, but if he wants to go further in the playoffs, he must have this basic evasion.You can't stop in the Eastern Conference semifinals last year, and stop in the Eastern Conference semifinals after the lineup has been greatly changed this year.

Not to mention the finals and the championship, Henson has to take Paul to the conference finals for a walk anyway.

And the only way to avoid the Heat is to win the Eastern Conference in the regular season!

Henson curled his lips, No. [-] in the East, this sounds really crazy.It seems that this season, the task is heavy.

If you want to win the first place in the Eastern Conference, then you can't afford to lose by playing the Knicks in two consecutive games back to back.

Regardless of whether it was Lin Madness or Gua Madness, Henson's task was to make none of them crazy.
