Spoelstra felt her palms sweat slightly.

Is the air conditioner at the American Airlines Center broken? No, apparently not. That's because with just two minutes left before the end of the game, the Miami Heat are still 11 points behind the Pacers.

That's right, from the beginning of the first quarter down until now, the Heat have not been able to get rid of the Pacers' control. The mighty Pacers kept the situation firmly under wrap and left the Big Three exhausted.

Spoelstra wiped her sweaty palms with a towel and took a deep breath. It's different, this Pacers team has become different from the previous two games.

As a coach with Finals experience, Spoelstra knows how critical confidence is in a playoff game where every game counts.

With big wins in the first two games at Consecco, Spoelstra believes the team has not only won the game, but has also earned confidence.

Think about how high your team's confidence must be and how low the opponent's confidence must be when you return to home and win one more game is basically equivalent to qualifying.

But what about today? The Pacers are full of confidence! Henson. Joe is full of himself! This guy is even confident that Danny will be able to play steadily all season. Green played as a fake starter and gave Leonard 100 percent of his trust!

Henson. What exactly is the magic of Joe? How did he manage to revive the team in a desperate situation? How did he manage to send whoever played and who could make an immediate difference?

Thinking of this, Spoelstra's palms couldn't help but start sweating again. That's when he realized that the reason why his palms were sweating was not because the Heat were still behind in the final moments, but because of Henson. Joe, the Chinese coach who can always turn decay into magic, makes Spoelstra feel extremely nervous!

With 1:30 left in the game, Paul assisted Leonard on a three-point shot to score his 18th point of the game. 18 points, which is a new high for Leonard in the playoffs since the beginning of his career. Before the game began, who would have thought that this guy who averaged 5.2 points per game in the playoffs would score 18 points in this game?

On the other hand, with the Heat, James is still outstanding with 32 points, but his shooting rate has fallen below 45%. Wade scored 22 points while shooting just 32.6 percent from the field. James and Wade, who were omnipotent in the first two games, could no longer play a magical performance in front of Henson's new defensive strategy and the crazy Pacers players, let alone the miracle of 41 points in a single game.

After Leonard hit a three-pointer, the margin became 13 points. But Spoelstra didn't give up and he was hell-bent on winning the game.

Win this game and the series aggregate will be 3-0! Win this game and the Indiana Pacers will almost say goodbye to the playoffs! Win this game...... Winning this game, Spoelstra won't have to face the mysterious Henson. Joe!

It's just a pity that the facts very loudly gave Spoelstra a slap in the face. Want to get past the Pacer with ease? There are no doors.

The electronic beep sounded, and the rebound glowed red. The Miami fans, who were originally full of anticipation, lowered their heads one by one, and even forgot to boo.

115-103, the Miami Heat, who were invincible in the first two games, made the Pacers lose two home games in a row. Today, on their home court, they defeated the Pacers!

"It's over, the Big Three held on to the end, but they couldn't get the score back. 12 points difference, Henson. Coach Joe led the brave Pacers to complete the comeback! They stubbornly tied the series to 1-2! Audience friends, the Eastern Conference Finals have become suspenseful again! ”

Mike. Brin stood up and clenched his fists and shouted, while James and Wade walked into the tunnel dejectedly and without any media interviews.

James was in a very low mood, and even if he scored 32 points, he couldn't be happy. Because of recalling the whole game, a lot of the 32 points flashed in James's mind, but the expressionless face of the No. 2 forward, and the offenses that were destroyed by him!

In the first two games, Leonard did not impress James much. But today, he seems to be a different person, as if the American Airlines Center is his home turf!

Being so embarrassed by a first-year rookie also allowed him to score a career-high playoff score in one fell swoop.

"!" Thinking of this almost shameful game, James suddenly scolded as he walked, which scared Wade next to him.

At this time, LeBron clenched his fists and decided to completely kill the difficult Pacers with a two-game winning streak!

In his opinion, the outbursts of Leonard and Stephenson were just accidents and could not be replicated. Every year in the playoffs, there are one or two players who are short-lived, but their outstanding performances are often not sustainable.

This time, though, James was wrong...... At least in the Eastern Conference Finals, Leonard's magical performance can really be sustained......

"Tough defensively, tenacious, biting with opponents, struggling to survive, today, the Indiana Pacers showed us a pure Eastern Conference team! Everyone thought they were finished, but they won the unexpected victory in the most incredible way! ”

Although the Heat players have left the court, only half of the fans in the American Airlines Center have not left. But on the commentary platform, Mike. Brin doesn't seem to have recovered from the shock.

Except for ESPN's reporters who approached Henson for a sideline interview, no media has approached Henson. Because most of the people on the scene today were local media in Miami, before the game, the local media in Miami attacked Henson vigorously. Now that Henson has won, isn't it boring for you to go up and interview him again?

No one dares to hit the muzzle of the gun anymore.

Not daring to provoke Henson, most of the reporters leaned towards Leonard. There is no doubt that Leonard is the key to the Pacers being able to win today. It stands to reason that the news value on him should be very high. But when this taciturn guy faces the camera, he always makes reporters unmotivated.

"How did you contain LeBron today!?"

"I just did what Coach Henson had told."

"Today we scored a career-high 18 points in the playoffs, how did you keep your touch?"

"I'm just, doing what Coach Henson tells me to do."

"You hit a couple of three-point shots today, how did you ......"

"I just did what Coach Henson had told."

No matter what questions the reporters asked, the young striker with a blank face would always have only one answer. Even more speechless, Leonard seemed to think that his answer was quite good.

After all, he had already "embellished" Henson's words. You can't say to so many reporters and cameras, "Fuck Paul, fuck George, fuck David......

"This is a great victory, Henson!" Vogel didn't calm down until he walked into the players' tunnel. Before the game, Vogel was worried that the pressure would crush Henson, but for now, he was completely overwhelmed.

When have you ever seen Henson depressed due to stress? Vogel believes that even if the aggregate score does become 3-0 now, Henson will still be interested in talking to the media.

"Indeed, it was a great victory. But we're not really winning yet, we're aiming for the finals, Frank. ”

"Finals? I thought you were just...... Wait, that's not what you said at the beginning of the season, you just wanted the team not to be eliminated in the Eastern Conference semifinals. ”

"Well...... Frank, men's desires are bottomless. Henson smiled, and at first, Henson's goal might not have been the Grand Finals. But now that it's all on this, do you want him to surrender voluntarily?

"Then if you really make it to the finals, do you have the idea of playing the O'Brien Cup again?"

"That's hard to say, Frank. Maybe, who knows? ”

Vogel got goosebumps, and now it's not just Spoelstra who is nervous because of Henson, even Vogel is nervous!

Championship, does this guy know what the concept of championship is? No...... Henson knows, and he knows it!

But isn't this guy's favorite thing to overachieve?

Vogel stopped and looked at Henson's back. Henson must have planned it, and he always had a plan. But Vogel must admit that he had never been involved in such a crazy plan.
