Basketball's No. 1 Anti-Fan

Chapter 96 Han Sen's Season is Over
"God, he's the 'tech desk buster'!"

In the commentary booth, Barkley, who was commentating tonight, made a golden quote.

O'Neal previously gave Hansen the nickname "Terminator", but that nickname eventually faded into obscurity.

But after Barkley's secondary processing, I'm afraid it will really spread.

Because this is Hansen's third time jumping off the technical platform since his NCAA days.

Especially the last two times, he jumped continuously in one series, and shouted such classic words every time he jumped.

With this nickname, Han Sen's opponents in the future will probably have to consider whether their own technical platforms will be affected.

After shouting, Han Sen felt refreshed. He shouted excitedly and jumped down again amid the cheers of the fans.

At this time, except for James who returned to the locker room early, the rest of the Cavaliers players, including Varejao, had gathered at the technical table.

This win tonight is so inspiring!
The reporter also went through numerous difficulties and finally squeezed in front of Han Sen.

"Han, Han! What do you want to say now?" Because there were too many and too many different shouts from fans and athletes around, the host could only raise his voice as much as possible.

"I said we won't go to Boston again!" Han Sen also shouted.

This moment set the stadium on fire again.

In all the years since the league was founded, there are only a handful of people who have been able to successfully act like a Celtic.

Han Sen, a rookie, is not only successful, but also becomes the recognized father of the Celtics. This is probably the first person in history.

After finishing the interview, Hansen smiled and waved to the fans before walking back to the player tunnel.

However, as soon as he entered the player tunnel, he immediately stood by the wall with a slightly ferocious expression.

Cunningham came in with Hansen. He was smiling, but he immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Help me get to the infirmary." Han Sen said quickly.

He already felt something was wrong after he completed the buzzer-beater, and it was all adrenaline that was playing tricks on him.

Cunningham nodded after hearing this, and quickly called Jamison who was further back. The two of them each held one hand and helped Hansen to the infirmary.

The door of the infirmary was closed and Cunningham quickly called over the team doctor.

Han Sen's knee was very painful at this time.

After the initial examination, the team doctor indicated that Han Sen should be taken to the hospital for further examination.

Cunningham and Jamison didn't say a word, they just put on their jerseys and followed the team doctor to the hospital.

At this time, in the Cavaliers' locker room, the players were celebrating wildly.

Now they feel extremely powerful, and some of them can even see themselves standing on the championship podium.

"Where's Han?" O'Neal turned his head in confusion.

After a series of examinations at the hospital, they received the final diagnosis from the team doctor.

"It's a mild ligament strain. You need to rest for at least 2 weeks."

Cunningham and Jamison both had complicated expressions.

Two weeks means that Hansen will miss the entire conference finals, and the team doctor said that he will miss at least two weeks. Even if the Cavaliers can enter the finals, Hansen may not be able to play.

Hansen worked so hard to lead the Cavaliers to defeat the Celtics, but he fell at the finish line.

"Like I told you, my luck has always been good." Han Sen looked at the team doctor with a smile.

Although he has to rest for two weeks, this is the lightest of all possible injuries.

And including tonight, he has played brilliantly in 5 games out of a 3-game series. It would be worth it even if he is declared out for the season now.

Not long after, Brown and Ferry also came to the hospital. They were notified by the team doctor.

Currently, the actual situation of Han Sen's injury is still within a small and controllable range.

In order not to affect the upcoming Eastern Conference Finals, they certainly couldn't announce it so directly.

Finally, after discussion, it was decided to deal with it with the "knee pain, daily observation list" approach.

This is not a problem, but Hansen thought it sounded so Leonard-like.

After receiving initial treatment at the hospital, Hansen returned to his home.

Not only was he unable to play, he was also unable to train for the next week.

For him who was used to training and competition, this was a little difficult to adapt to for a while.

Although O'Neal and West came to visit him the next day, it actually took up very little time.

Bored, he started paying attention to some things he had forgotten because of the playoffs.

For example, are Rondo and his teammates also on summer vacation now?

I originally wanted to ask them to come to Cleveland to play with him, but when I thought about the fact that he is currently injured and cannot be made public, it seemed impossible to ask them.

Then he thought of Swift, who had promised to treat him to a cake she had made herself.

I don’t know what Swift is doing now.

Anyway, idle is idle.

He took out his cell phone and sent a text message to ask, but he didn't expect the other party to call him back directly via video.

Swift pointed the camera directly ahead, which was a huge stage.

After chatting for a few sentences, I found out that Swift is currently in Brazil, preparing for the concert rehearsal.

It turns out that Swift has been on a world tour for her new album "Fearless" since April.

At that time, Han Sen also happened to be playing in the playoffs, so the two of them were busy together.

"Wait for me, I'll be back in July. I said I'd treat you to cake."

She quickly hung up the phone because rehearsal was about to begin.

After putting down the phone, Han Sen felt like he had eaten a piece of candy.

Swift actually remembered about the cake, which meant that the other party at least regarded him as a friend.

This is also good. Having a friend like Swift is something he thought was good from the beginning.

But after the call, Han Sen started to feel bored again.

He could only take out his game console and start playing 2K to pass the time.

Just a moment after he started calling, Khalil called him.

It's about the best team selection.

The current NBA rules are different from those before he traveled through time. There is no so-called award ceremony, and regular season awards are presented one after another during the playoffs.

The best lineup announced now is also the last grand prize.

The best lineup is divided into three parts: the best lineup, the best defensive lineup, and the best rookie lineup.

Except for the best lineup which has three lineups, the rest have only two lineups.

In particular, the All-NBA First Team is considered to be the most convincing honor in assessing a player's historical status, besides the MVP.

凭借着赛季场均13.6分2.8板1.4助攻2.1抢断0.9盖帽的发挥，韩森同时入选了最佳新秀阵容一阵，以及最佳防守二阵！
In addition to him, Brandon Jennings, Curry, Evans and Taj Gibson were selected to the All-Rookie First Team.

Griffin, who performed the best during the Summer League, was ruled out for the season after the Summer League and had no chance to be selected. As for Thabeet and Harden, they did not get many opportunities in their rookie season.

This also involves a useless piece of knowledge. In theory, the selection of the best team will be based on five positions, but in fact there is no such limitation in media voting.

"If you were American, you should be selected for the defensive first team." Khalil spoke up for Hansen on the other end of the phone.

Media selection is actually a subjective evaluation in itself.

On the other hand, if you ask the Dongda people to select the best team, they will instinctively favor Dongda. However, Hansen was selected to the second team despite this bias, which is enough to show how impressive his defensive performance this season is.

This is thanks to the superstars who have played against Hansen: Durant, Kobe, Carter, Pierce, and even Anthony, all of whom contributed to this.

"By the way, LeBron made the All-NBA First Team for the second year in a row."

When Hansen asked Khalil to think about how it would feel to be a more famous reporter than Windhorst, he didn't take it seriously at first, but now he is looking forward to it.

Then he will naturally pay attention to James' movements.

Han Sen was not surprised at all. God of media voting, do you think this is a joke?

But Han Sen didn't care about any of these, not even the first team All-Rookie selection. After all, those didn't really bring him any real benefits.

What he cares about is the second team of the best defensive team. According to the shoe endorsement contract he signed with UA, this will directly increase the annual contract from the original 200 million to 250 million.

This money may not seem like much now, but if you put it into the previous investment plan, it will generate more than just this amount of money.

Hansen's boredom didn't last long, because just two days later, the game between the Cavaliers and the Magic started.

He went to Quicken Loans Arena, and as required by the team, shot two baskets during the warm-up to release a smoke bomb for the opponent.

Of course, after shooting, he put on his training clothes again, sat at the end of the bench, and became his SVIP audience.

Han Sen’s current mentality is actually similar to that of the audience.

It would certainly be a good thing if the Cavaliers could make it to the finals. After all, he still wants to show himself on the finals stage.

Not being able to get in is not a bad thing.

In addition to what I said before, if the Cavaliers don’t make it, wouldn’t that simple control experiment prove his importance?
Even after being tricked by James in Game 5, he actually hoped that James would lose in this round of the Eastern Conference Finals.

After all, a James like that doesn't deserve to stand on the stage of the finals again.

In the most extreme case, if they make it to the finals, and James does what he knows about releasing his power by 8 points, that would make him sick to his stomach.

Of course, those are things that haven't happened yet, so Han Sen can look at them with ease now.

Putting those factors aside, he thinks the Cavaliers still have a good chance.

The main reason is naturally O'Neal.

O'Neal proved that he is still strong despite his old age when he played against the Celtics. Now he is facing Howard, who is completely restrained by him. Wouldn't there be more room for him to perform?

And if the Magic team is compared to a car, then Howard is the engine.

Once the engine is restricted, it is difficult to drive the car fast.

What's more, they traded Driver (Turkoglu) during the offseason.

Of course, the Magic are not completely without chances. O'Neal's physical fitness is a big problem. If the Cavaliers' offense is not good and they have to run and play on the court, Howard can still play to his advantage in the interior.

Moreover, the Magic swept all the way into the Eastern Conference Finals in the playoffs, and Carter was in great form after entering the second round, scoring 4+ in 3 of the 20 games.

We won’t know who will win until the fight really starts.

Then, the Cavaliers won the first game 96-88.

O'Neal played very bravely, scoring 21 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks in the game.

Moreover, the data cannot fully reflect his role. He made it very difficult for Howard on both offense and defense.

After all, Howard is still a rough guy who relies on his body to play basketball. When his physical advantage is gone, he becomes like a big blue-collar worker.

If nothing unexpected happens, Han Sen will have to prepare for the upcoming finals.

After Game 1, the media reported a lot on O'Neal's performance.

The title is: The Fourth Spring of the Great Shark.

The first spring was in Los Angeles, the second spring was in Miami, the third spring was in Phoenix, and the fourth spring did not last a season, but was in the playoffs.

Since his comeback, O'Neal has been in very hot form. As long as he is given the ball, he has never disappointed.

It is no exaggeration to say that the main contributor to the Cavaliers' elimination of the Celtics in the last round was Hansen, and O'Neal was at least on par with James.

Then in Game 2, O'Neal couldn't get the ball.

詹姆斯打出了非常经典的“球队输了我没输”的比赛，全场29投14中爆砍37分8板7助攻6失误，但是骑士队最终92比101输给了魔术队。

Moreover, James actually played two more games like this.

After the four games were over, the Cavaliers, after winning the first game, were tied by the Magic three games in a row, and the score was directly 4 to 1.

Han Sen was really possessed by the Mamba at this moment, and said, "What can I say! Man!"

Abstract, it’s really too damn abstract.

Hansen feels that James' obsession with data is no less than that of Chamberlain, whose nickname was also "The Emperor".

Oh, in his time, they were all called "Lao Zhang" by some fans.

If you insist that Hansen analyze it from a different perspective, he can only say that he had completely lost his mind because James' spotlight was stolen by him in the first round and then by O'Neal in the second round.

However, this is not the most abstract.

The most abstract thing is that when the Cavaliers were trailing 1-3 and were about to repeat the same mistake as last season, Ferry actually came to find Hansen!
"You want me to come back early?"

Hearing Ferry's request, Han Sen looked disturbed.

In this situation, instead of Ferry trying to persuade James to let go of his obsession with data, he came to persuade him to return early?
"Impossible." After seeing Ferry nod, Han Sen did not say "I refuse", but directly used a very tough tone.

Don't you have any idea why I got hurt?
"I said before, I'm a rookie and my desire for the championship is not that strong. I can't risk my career for this championship."

Seeing that Ferry was about to speak, Han Sen even learned to answer first.

"Don't use LeBron's injections to kidnap me. Everyone's physical fitness is different. If my career is really ruined, who will pay for it?"

His situation is different from James. James urgently needs this championship to crown himself, but he is more for showing himself.

Playing against the Celtics in the second round, this goal has been achieved, and the subsequent games are just icing on the cake.

Seeing Han Sen's resolute attitude, Ferry didn't know what to say.

After all, as Han Sen said, asking a player to play with an injury is itself a form of moral kidnapping.

However, what Hansen never expected was that the day after he rejected Ferry, Windhorst from ESPN actually published an article saying that the reason the Cavaliers fell behind was because of his absence and no one could limit Carter's performance.

"If Han can return early, the Cavaliers still have a chance."

I can go to hell!
Han Sen was completely enraged by James' behavior.

This is the same as announcing injuries before the game. The season hasn't even ended yet, but people are already putting the blame on him.

He immediately contacted Carril and asked Carril to publish a report titled "Is statistics or victory or defeat more important in basketball games?"

Khalil has been with Hansen for a long time now, and he has become bolder.

Of course, more importantly, as Han Sen’s fame grew, his fame also grew.

If he really has to resign because of this, he could just switch to TNT or other media.

This season hasn't even ended yet, but the Cavaliers' drama has already begun.

Two days later, Howard fouled out with 6 fouls, James scored 43 points, and the Cavaliers pulled away with a hard-fought 112-109 victory at home.

Four days later, the Cavaliers lost 84-96 to the Magic on the road and were eliminated by their opponents 2-4.

After Hansen led Team 3 to beat Team 1 and Team 2, he shouted to everyone that he was the one who could best help the team win, and without him the Cavaliers would not have made it to the finals.

He probably didn't expect at the time that his last words would come true.

With the Cavaliers eliminated, Hansen's rookie season officially came to an end.
