Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam

As the halftime buzzer sounded, the first half of Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Nets and Bucks temporarily came to an end.

On the scoreboard, the Nets led with a huge advantage of 70:46, which filled the Bucks' locker room with an atmosphere of depression and frustration.

The players were dejected one by one, as if they were disrupted by the sudden score difference.

Coach Budenholzer opened the door and walked in.

He looked around and saw the downcast expressions of the players, and his heart sank.

But he knows that as a coach, he must stand up at this time and inject a little vitality into the team.

"Okay, guys." Budenholzer said, trying to bring some comfort to the players with his calm voice. "Being behind at halftime is not the end of the world. We have faced more difficult situations before, haven't we? ?”

The locker room was silent, with only the heavy breathing of the players echoing in the air.

Budenholzer knew he needed to say more and find words that would touch the hearts of these pros.

"Basketball is round," he continued, "which means anything can happen. We can't give up the whole game just because we're behind for a moment. Remember, we are a team, a whole. No matter the court Whatever happens in the world, we must unite and face it together.”

He walked up to each player, looked them in the eye, and tried to convey determination and belief.

"Middleton, you are our scoring point. You need to find your touch in the second half. I believe you can do it."

Middleton nodded. Although his expression was still a little solemn, there was already a glimmer of light in his eyes.

Budenholzer turned to interior general Lopez, "Lopez, your defense and rebounding in the interior are the key to our victory. I need you to continue to be aggressive and protect our basket."

Lopez snorted in response, but his eyes had become more determined.

Then, Budenholzer encouraged other players one by one. His words were full of trust in the players and desire to win.

"Boys, we are a championship-worthy team. We have been through ups and downs together, won games together, and faced defeats together, but no matter what the result, we can't give up our desire and desire to win. Pursue, we have to win this game!”

Despite the power of Budenholzer's words, the reaction from the players wasn't what he expected.

They still seemed a little listless and seemed to no longer have much expectations for the outcome of this game.

Seeing this, Budenholzer knew he needed to do more.

He clapped his hands and attracted everyone's attention.

"Listen, I know things don't look good right now, but I want you to remember that the game of basketball is not just a scoring contest, it's a mental contest. We can't lose mentally to our opponent first. We have to believe in ourselves, believe in our team, and believe in every teammate on the court.”

He took a deep breath and continued: "I know you are all tired, but this game means a lot to us. We can't give up so easily. We have to fight for our fans and for our honor. Therefore, in the second half, I hope to see a more energetic Bucks team, a Bucks team that is not afraid of difficulties and moves forward courageously!”

Despite Budenholzer's impassioned words, the players still seemed confused.

They knew what the coach said was right, but they felt powerless in the face of such a huge score gap.

Budenholzer saw the players' hesitation and uneasiness, and he decided to find another way to motivate them.

Went up to each player and had one-on-one conversations with them.

"Antetokounmpo, you are our leader, and your performance will directly affect the morale of the entire team. I believe you have the ability to lead us out of this difficult situation."

Antetokounmpo nodded, a determined gleam in his eyes.

He stood up, clenched his fists, and showed his determination to his teammates.

Next, Budenholzer had a brief exchange with each player, reminding them of their past glories, as well as their role and importance on the team.

His words were like a stream of warmth, warming the hearts of the players and rekindling their fighting spirit.

Although they were behind at halftime, they were ready to go all out and turn the game around.

And all of this is thanks to Coach Budenholzer's inspiring words in the locker room.

Although Lu Yong didn't know what was going on in the Bucks locker room, it did not delay his plan to lure Budenholzer to the Nets in the summer.

Bushuai has done a good job, but he will soon belong to the Nets!

After hearing this, Durant's eyes flashed with determination, he nodded vigorously and said, "I will, coach! I will lead the team to victory!"

Then, Lu Yong began to lay out the tactics for the second half and explained in detail the adjustments and changes that the team needed to make.
