Overtime, whistle pressing, lore.

Before the Eastern Conference Finals began, everyone knew that the battle between the two sides would be very intense. But no one thought it would be so intense.

Suppression, counter-suppression, hard-hitting collisions, blood-spilled arenas, roaring, tearing are the most intense images you can think of. It can all be found in this game. Since last season's fierce battle, the two teams are still going toe-to-toe. It's just that this time, from the very beginning, the two sides directly started hand-to-hand combat.

LeBron. James was undoubtedly the hero of the game, and his final 2.2-second layup was broadcast countless times by countless sports television stations. But after the game, there was another Heat player who got attention on almost the same level as Jade.

This man is not Dwayne. Wade, but Chris, who has not been talked about for a long time. Bosh!

"We've got to play better, yesterday wasn't a championship game, it's hard to win this series, let alone the finals. Whether it's attacking or defending, we have to step up. ”

Chris. Bosh's words spread all over the streets of Indianapolis and even the entire United States! The Heat may be the only team in the league to defeat the 72-win Pacers and say they weren't good enough!

Bosh's words have been hotly debated by all basketball fans around the world, and some people say that Bosh is a little too arrogant.

"Did that guy forget that he only got two rebounds in the whole game?"

There are also those who believe that Bosh is true blood and tells the truth.

"Chris only grabbed two rebounds, but each one was valuable and changed the game. And he was able to score 17 points on the Pacers' interior, which is undoubtedly a very good statistic. ”

There are both pro-Bosh and anti-Bosh supporters, but one thing is for sure - "Dragon King" has succeeded in making this already explosive and high-profile game even more hot!

Compared to the West, the war between the Spurs and the Grizzlies is a low-key team. The battle in the east seems to be more eye-catching.

But in response, Henson did not express any views and remarks. He'd love to clean up the bosh, but it has to be in the game, not in the mouth. Henson's priority now is not to fight a war of words with Bosh, but to adjust his strategy as soon as possible to try to maximize the Pacers' win rate in Game 2!

So before training the day after the game, Henson urgently convened a tactical meeting. There are some plans that have to be reformulated.

"You mean," Stevens frowned, "you're going to make Leonard a starter?" ”

"Yes," Henson confirmed very crisply, "last season's Eastern Conference Finals, it was Leonard's excellent play that limited LeBron. I think we can try to win the game in the same way in this series. The bottom line is that when West or Horford are fouled, we can put Leonard in the No. 4 position temporarily. In short, let LeBron match Leonard as much as possible! ”

Henson is well aware that the Pacers' passivity in the last game started with too many fouls on the backs of Horford and West. Although Yi Jianlian and Anderson also have their own strengths, it has always been difficult to resist the impact of James and Wade brothers. It is in this way that the Heat will easily take so many points.

So in the next game, Henson decided to reuse Leonard, even at the expense of putting him in the No. 4 position. In short, this guy has to be put in front of James all the time.

Later, Henson will use the "check and fill in the gaps" technique on Leonard. Leonard's progress this season is already great, and with a little weak attribute bonus, it is enough for James to drink a pot!

He believes that after the baptism of the Eastern Conference Finals this season, Leonard will also be like Paul. Like George, become what he dreamed of!

Of course, it's not enough to let Leonard start. Presumably, the Heat must have been prepared, and James must have expected that he would fight Leonard again. So, Henson still needs some changes. For example, in the final moments of the game, bring up the long-hidden "Death Defense" lineup!

"At the critical moment, if the score is scorched, then force them to make mistakes! Neither LeBron nor Wade can give them a chance to shoot at the last moment, these two guys are too strong in their key ball ability! So, force them to make mistakes and don't give them a chance to make a move at all! ”

Although I don't want to admit it, Henson must say that in the last 2.2 seconds yesterday, Wade's pass, James' cut and final finish were really beautiful. But if it was just if, if the Pacers had made a mistake in the passing session yesterday, wouldn't the outcome have been very different?

Death Defense, Leonard, Jimmy. Butler and Stephenson, this lineup won't be around for long. Maybe two minutes, maybe a minute, maybe even just one round! But once they are sent out, Henson hopes they will be able to make a difference.

"So one more training session this afternoon, which is defensive training at key moments. Simulate a variety of possible scenarios and simulate the Heat's possible passing options. We have to be ready for everything, even if the next game may not be a last-minute decision at all. ”

Henson slapped the table and decided what would happen in the next game. Everything was ready, it was all he could think of right now. Even if the next game may not happen at all, it's better to be prepared than to be overwhelmed when you're in trouble. The Heat are already 1-0 ahead, and if they lose the next game, the Heat will return to their home court with a 2-0 lead! Just thinking about it, you know how dangerous such a situation is.

Although last season, the Pacers fought back in such a situation. But Henson didn't want to take that risk again, and he had to let the situation de-escalate. Therefore, the next game must be won no matter what!

As for the "Dragon King" Chris. Bosh's arrogance waits for the game to begin, and Henson will settle accounts with him again!

Indianapolis, outside the Banker's Life Arena.

Police cars with flashing lights are parked on the side of the road, and police officers in reflective vests are patrolling back and forth, and walkie-talkies pinned to their shoulders rustle from time to time.

A group of Pacers fans in corn-yellow T-shirts walked past waving placards in their hands and shouting slogans.

The police officers who were on standby stared at the group of fans walking in front of them, rushing to the walkie-talkie to report the latest situation in their precinct.

"We're in good shape here, everything is normal, it's over."

“…… The main entrance of the stadium...... Normal, done......"

Everyone knows how grumpy Pacers fans are at this point after the loss of Game 1 and Bosh's remarks. Not to mention, there were also many Heat fans who came to watch the game. With the smell of gunpowder so strong, the Indianapolis Police Department didn't want to see any accidents happen. Therefore, the local government has increased the police presence inside and outside the stadium to ensure safety during the game.

The police officers turned their gaze to the group of fans, and their eyes followed them away, merging into the countless streams of people like them, and flocking to the stadium that stood by the street.

The battle in there tonight must be very fierce

※※※

"For the Pacers fans, tonight was like a big festival! Although there were still 40 minutes to go, the Bankers' Living Arena was already full. In fact, on such an important night, there are many more fans who can only sit inside the bar or watch the game outside the stadium through the large LED screen. It can be said that the fans of the entire Indianapolis are pouring out! After all, this game will be directly related to whether the situation of the Pacers is clear! I'm sure Coach Henson wouldn't want to go to Miami with a 2-0 deficit! Audience friends, welcome to the 2013 NBA Eastern Conference Finals, the second round of the battle between the Heat and the Pacers! ”

Kenny. Smith's voice was a little hoarse, thanks to James' final 2.2 seconds of the last whistle. Smith didn't know how long he had been yelling for that kill, only that his throat had become incredibly sore when he returned.

The stands were full of people, and the shouts of the fans and other chaotic sounds made the scene extremely noisy.

Henson closed the locker room door, and the noise was much quieter. Although it can't be completely eliminated, at least now everyone can hear what he says.

"I know you lost the last game. Sean. Battier's dirty, the referee's frequent whistles, and the last-minute stunner but it didn't matter, they did it and they only won us by one point. Throw away your wrath, guys. Focus on the game. We eliminated the Heat last season, and this season we can kill them as well! ”

With that, Henson looked at his watch. There's still a little time left before he plays, and he doesn't have much more to say. The tactical stuff, he's stressed countless times in the two days of training.

"That's all, rest, and get ready to play!"

Henson felt the pressure rise in an instant, and this season the Heat are stronger and more determined. Truth be told, he wasn't sure if he would win the game, even if he used a demoralizing spell against Leonard to increase his stats.

But in front of the players, he has to act confident, as if everything has been arranged a long time ago.

He didn't mind playing such a role, but the pressure on his heart also needed to be relieved. Sometimes yelling at the news media before a game is a good way to decompress, but he can't do that in this game because it only fuels the Heat.

He ducked into the toilet, pulled out a cigar, and took a deep breath. He felt some pain in his chest, and his heartbeat seemed to accelerate suddenly. But Henson has become accustomed to it, and he doesn't know how many of those moments he has experienced this season.

You can't curse before the game, so save all your energy until after the game. When the time comes, Henson will make Bosh regret saying that.

The noise on the pitch suddenly became louder, and Henson knew that Paul must have taken his teammates to the court to warm up.

Henson extinguished his cigar and straightened his corn-yellow Armani suit in an effort to calm himself down.

He's seen a lot of scenes like this, and it's not a big deal. It's just to win another victory
