113 to 91, in fact, the game was a much bigger margin than James had imagined.

Full game, Paul. George chipped in 34 points and eight rebounds. Among them, the goal that shook James and hit a three-point shot was scrolled by major sports channels. And this video is also among the best in terms of the number of views on sports portals around the world.

That's when people remembered that Paul. George, a top scorer, is not a good scorer. And the Cavaliers' guard line can't bring the slightest obstruction to George.

In addition to George, Antetokounmpo's 23 points and Paul's 15 points and 13 assists were also very impressive. It can be said that the Pacers played both team basketball and individual basketball.

The Cleveland Cavaliers, on the other hand, are not doing as well.

Accustomed to Thomas Jr.'s weak defense, Irving was visibly underprepared against Paul. Irving scored just 11 points on 4-of-11 shooting. As the Cavaliers' No. 2 man, the 11-point contribution is clearly not up to par.

Love had a good performance, with 20 points and 12 rebounds in the game, and a double-double. But the 20-point contribution is very limited for the Cavaliers.

James scored 25 points in the game and was blown into scum by George. Antetokounmpo and George's combined defense made James, who has always been accustomed to rampage, also deflated.

As for the rest of the Cavaliers, the performance was even more "excellent". Korver scored just three points on 1-of-6 shooting. Shambaugh seemed to have been infected by Korver, and he also shot 1-of-6 and scored only 3 points.

DeLong, Derek. Williams and Richard. Jefferson's three "out-of-gas trio" combined only scored a total of 5 points. Just look at the stats to see how bad the Cavaliers are.

The day after the race, the world overwhelmingly lifted the Pacers to the altar. LeBron. No matter how strong James is, he still hasn't defeated Henson once. Undoubtedly, this has greatly elevated Henson's place in history.

Especially, it was when the Cavaliers just won the championship last season.

Henson grinned as he watched the reports praising the Pacers in the head coach's office. After a season of hard work, he finally got the results he wanted.

Now, the Pacers are able to take out the Cavaliers with ease. It also means that his team has the ability to compete with the Warriors.

Speaking of the Warriors, tonight, the first game of the Western Conference Finals will also be played. The Golden State Warriors will play against the Spurs led by Henson's longtime friend Popovich. While Henson would love to compete with the Warriors at the top, all of Henson's preparations now are geared towards the Warriors.

But from the heart of himself, Henson would rather have his own preparations wasted and hope that Spurs can qualify.

After all, Henson and Popovich had a good personal relationship. And Leonard is also Henson's beloved apprentice.

Personally, Henson wants his friends to win. From the perspective of the game, the Spurs are not as scary as the Warriors. So, it's understandable that Henson wants the Spurs to advance.

This is likely to be the first time that Henson is looking forward to the Western Conference Finals like a fan.

In the past few years, Henson has been too busy dealing with the Heat, let alone the Western Conference Finals. Moreover, in the past, Henson was indifferent to who made it from the Western Conference Finals. Anyway, in the end, it's all about defeating them.

But this year is different, and Henson is already confident in the Eastern Conference Finals. And on the Western Conference Finals side, Henson also has a team to support. So tonight, he decided to go home early.

Although he is an NBA head coach, Henson has to watch countless game footage every year. But in fact, he didn't know how long he hadn't watched a live NBA game.

So, Henson made a point of explaining to McMillan and Becky today. "No players are allowed to stay and practice, let them go home when they are done. ”

Today, Henson intends to be a fan again.

※※※

Although the Spurs are not as strong on paper as the Warriors, although the outside world is also generally bearish about the Spurs. But let's be honest, Henson thinks Spurs still have hope of winning.

After all, the coach of that team was Greg. Popovich.

In the last round, the Spurs were able to eliminate the Rockets led by MVP candidate Harden with a total score of 4-2, which shows that their strength is actually stronger than imagined.

Before today's game, Popovich said, "We've always won championships when we weren't favored." ”

Yes, the San Antonio Spurs are one such team. They never make a big splash, but always take it slowly and leisurely to get the championship.

In short, it's still the same sentence: "Warriors, don't feel like you're stable." ”

Once the game started, the situation was similar to what Henson had imagined.

The Spurs started with five points in the opening period, but then Curry, Thompson and Green scored back-to-back goals to put the score in turn.

Subsequently, the Spurs twin towers Aldridge and Gasol both began to exert their strength, overcoming rigidity with softness and scoring frequently on the inside of the Warriors.

Then, Durant made another burst of free throws to close the score......

The game between the Spurs and the Warriors set the tone from the beginning, with the two sides attacking and defending each other, alternating leads, and playing well. Mike. Brin also joked in the commentary, "The situation in the Western Conference Finals is completely opposite to the Eastern Conference Finals. ”

How boring the Pacers' game against the Cavaliers yesterday was, how intense the game between the Spurs and Warriors was today.

Henson watched with relish, the Warriors were undeniably strong, and Popovich's subtle tactics made Henson applaud.

The two teams were entangled until the seventh minute of the third quarter, and without warning, the twist occurred.

At this time, Leonard, who had already scored 26 points and 8 rebounds in the third quarter of the game, held the ball and played a cover with Aldridge.

Today, Leonard's performance was incredibly gratifying for Henson. Although he is no longer a Pacers player, a sense of accomplishment still rises from the bottom of Henson's heart to watch that kid grow step by step to where he is today.

Because Aldridge was on fire today, the Warriors were very tight defending him. Durant switched directly to Aldridge, who set up a cover, and Georgian center Zaza Bush was replaced by Georgian center Zaza. Pachulia replaces Leonard.

Faced with this small and big opportunity, Leonard suddenly made a sharp stop and retreated to make a jumper. Henson remembers that Leonard's shooting was a mess at all. But now, he's able to use those shooting skills with confidence.

Pachulia pounced aggressively, and because of the perspective, Henson couldn't see exactly what was happening. He only saw Leonard fall to the ground directly after shooting, and then screamed.

Then, the referee's hurried whistle blew. Leonard sat on the ground with his ankles clutched, and Henson's heart was shocked.

Something is wrong!

After a while, ESPN gave the replay footage just now. I don't know if I don't see it, but after watching the replay, Henson felt shocked.

I saw Pachulia deliberately take a few steps forward when he interfered with Leonard's shot. The few steps he took forward were unnatural and unnecessary.

And just like that, Leonard stomped Pachuria's top instep. Leonard's ankle twisted at a very exaggerated angle, and then fell to the ground in pain.

Anyone who has ever played basketball knows that if you step on something else when you land, you are very susceptible to injury. And Pachuria, this is undoubtedly Jean deliberately put his foot over for Leonard to step on.

In other words, Pachulia is an act of detrimental estimation without any professional ethics at all!

Henson is also a man who can do anything to win, but deliberately hurting people is his bottom line. He's not like George. Karl will encourage his players to scrap the opponent. No matter how despicable Henson is, he will not compromise a player's health for the sake of victory.

"This bastard!" was scolded by the angry Henson, startling Anjiali, who was teasing Emily on the side.

She had never seen Henson so angry in front of his family.

Then, with the help of his teammates, Leonard limped off the court. It seemed that there was no way for him to continue playing

Leonard clung to his head in frustration, he never liked to show his emotions. Unless, it really can't be controlled. Seeing this scene, Henson felt a pang in his heart.

Leonard must have known how badly he was injured this time. Otherwise, with his character, he would not have written his frustration on his face!

With 26 points in the third quarter, the Spurs still lead. But the good things are now gone......

Sure enough, after losing Leonard, the Warriors quickly took control of the game. Even Popovich will struggle to compete with the Warriors without Kawhi Leonard.

In the end, the Warriors managed to win the game at Oracle Arena. But because of Pachuria's footing of Leonard, the Warriors' victory didn't mean anything in Henson's view.

"Damn it!" Henson turned off the TV, then held his forehead, trying not to let his heart get too excited.

Leonard's dejected look and expression just now, Henson will never forget. Although the playoffs are a stage where you can do anything to win, Pachuria's actions still make Henson feel that it is too much.

The Chinese coach clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. This season, Henson has been very mild. Basically, I didn't quarrel with anyone, and even if it was an attack, it was just described with some sarcasm.

But now, Henson didn't want to put up with it anymore. It seems that the war with the warriors is about to start early.
