Chapter 376 Chapter 374: Who is the champion?

James made two turnovers at the critical moment, and Chris Bosh missed a three-pointer at the critical moment.Once again, the Eastern Conference finals were dragged into the final moments.But as Henson said, it is impossible for LeBron James and the Miami Heat to grasp the key offense every game.

This scene is performed by two teams at the same time, and it is impossible for the Miami Heat to be the protagonist every time!And this game just proved this point.

"It's over, the game is over! 98 to 93, the Pacers' excellent defense at the last moment, let the Miami people return without success!" The moment the game ended, Kenny Smith, a neutral commentator who could see anyone excited, jumped up.

"The power of Coach Henson's defensive lineup really cannot be underestimated. Once again, he used this lineup to end the game again. And this lineup was on the court and only stayed for 49 seconds. It is no exaggeration to say that this lineup was completely born to end the game." Barkley spread his hands, and the total score became 1-1.At a critical moment, he replaced a lineup that hadn't played in the entire game and won the ball. It has to be said that Henson may be as bold in the entire league.

The Eastern Conference finals are not destined to be easy!

After the game, James and Bosh stood on the sidelines with their hips akimbo.On the big screen at the Bankers Life Arena, the images of the last few rounds were still being replayed.

The camera showed the fallen James and Bosh. One of these two players was the hero who saved the team in the last game, and the other made heated remarks.And at this time, they both fell!

"Coach Henson, Coach Henson!" A bunch of reporters were following Henson, trying to prevent him from entering the player tunnel.

Henson turned around with a smile, he did it on purpose.You ignored me in the last game, but now it’s all right, you still have to chase and yell for me to stay.

"I thought," Henson pointed to Bosh, who was on the sidelines, "you'd be more interested in him."

"Coach Henson, what made you decide to play the 'death defense' lineup in the last 49 seconds!"

"I said I changed the wrong person, do you believe me?"

"Coach, how do you evaluate Kawhi Leonard's performance? Today he scored 26 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks. Among them, the two key defenses at the last moment directly caused LeBron to swallow two fatal turnovers! Before you let him start today, did you expect him to show such a performance?"

"Leonard's performance is obvious to all, and I don't need to make any comments. Besides, after the next few games, you will find that today is just his regular performance."

After answering, Henson waved his hand and was about to leave.But at this moment, a reporter yelled at the top of his voice.

"Coach Henson! After winning this game, what do you think of Chris Bosh's controversial remarks in the last game!"

The Chinese coach showed his white teeth. After waiting for so long, it finally arrived!

"I'd have forgotten if you didn't tell me, there's still such a thing."

The reporters looked contemptuous. This guy Henson may forget anything, but he will never forget other people's attacks on him!
"About Chris Bosh's remarks, as we all know, I have not expressed any opinion on this these days. In fact, it is because I support Chris Bosh's statement. We really have to play better. This performance is not a championship level. But Bosh made a mistake. The Miami Heat are not the champions, but I am. So today, thanks to his good words, we played better. And in the following series, we will continue to do better!"

After Henson finished speaking, he looked at Bosh who was walking towards the player tunnel with his head down.He believed that within a few minutes, his words would reach Bosh's ears.

And most importantly, Bosh can't refute this!

The world of competitive sports is like this, only the winner has the right to speak!

Now, it's the turn of the Heat and the "Dragon King" to take over the tremendous pressure.

※※※

"We're now in a fight to the death."

The next day, Bosh's statement at the press conference became the bold and bold headlines of major news media.The proud, arrogant Bosh, who won the game and claimed that the Heat did not perform well, failed to put this pressure on smoothly.Because the next game they just finished saying this sentence, they lost.Moreover, it still lost at a critical moment.

According to Bosh, the Heat should end the game before the critical moment comes.But unfortunately, this time the Heat failed to end the game even after the critical moment.Although James' two turnovers at the last moment were the biggest reason for the Heat's loss, it still can't make people forget Bosh's last key three-point miss.

Returning to Miami with a score of 1 to 1, recalling the experience of being beaten by the Pacers in an away game last season, "Dragon King" Bosh held his forehead and said that sentence.

"We're now in a fight to the death."

Looking at Bosh's frowning expression in the news pictures, Henson laughed unkindly.That's the way series are, winning just one game means nothing.If you think that winning a game is equivalent to winning the whole world, it won't take long before you will be slapped severely by the cruel reality.

Henson is well aware of this truth, so he was not completely immersed in the joy of defeating Bosh and the Heat.Winning just one game in a series means nothing, and that applies to the Heat as much as it does to the Pacers.

Although the Pacers won the ball yesterday, although Leonard successfully shined, although Henson let Bosh suffer the consequences.But the Pacers' performance was not perfect. In yesterday's game, they allowed the Heat's bench to score too many points.If it weren't for this, the last dozen or so seconds of the game wouldn't be full of suspense.

Mike Miller, Rashard Lewis and Norris Cole, the high shooting percentage of these guys from beyond the three-point line yesterday, was an unexpected trouble for Henson.He put all his attention on containing the Big Three, but the thickness of the Heat's bench this season is much better than last season.

And after experiencing the last game, Spoelstra will definitely re-formulate Leonard's defensive tactics, and also find a way to deal with the "death defense".

Although Leonard is good, he is not a perfect player. Although "Death Defense" ended the game for Henson again and again, it was not a perfect lineup after all.In this world, there is no perfect lineup, perfect players and perfect tactics.There are flaws in everything, it just depends on whether you can catch them.

Spoelstra is not stupid, he will not wait for Henson to end himself in the same way again and again.Henson's success in the league is also because he never treats his opponents as fools.

So Henson must continue to change and continue to find different ways to contain the Heat.And this is actually the process of the game between the two head coaches in the playoffs.

In 7 games, constantly find new ways to defeat the opponent, and then constantly contain the opponent's changes.

Once you have more ways to defeat the opponent to a certain extent, then the opponent will no longer be able to restrain you.And four victories are within reach!This is the experience Henson summed up after playing so many series.

In the last game, Henson had already sacrificed Leonard and "death defense".Then the next game in Miami, you have to get something new.

Henson looked up and looked at Jimmy Butler and Lance Stephenson on the training ground through the window of his office.It's time for these two young men with poor defense and underestimated offensive ability to take the stage.

During the regular season, they didn't get much chance to perform.But in the playoffs, let's show off their talents!

Spoelstra has Miller Sr., Lewis and Battier, who shined in the playoffs.But Henson still has more cards in his hand.Now, wait for Henson to show the Miami Heat one by one slowly!
