The Way of Basketball: Never Talk Shit to Him!

Of course, even just reaching this place was an achievement the Pacers hadn't thought possible at the start of the season.

Everyone thought that the departure of Su Wan would instantly lead to the team's decline...

Here, it is necessary to mention that last summer, Su Wan alone traded for a whole team for the Pacers.

Before this trade, when mentioning the most significant "Super Star", that was definitely Kevin Garnett.

The Timberwolves sent him to the Celtics in exchange for plenty of chips.

Now, when mentioning the most significant "Super Star", Su Wan had replaced Kevin Garnett.

He not only stayed with the team during the "Dynasty after-effects" but also left the team with enough assets when he departed so that they could continue to be part of the Eastern powerhouses.

This is why the people of Indiana remain so enthusiastic about Su Wan.

What Su Wan brought to Indiana is something the city must not forget.

Two games went by, and the atmosphere was still like a friendly match.

The final score was 4-0.

The New York Knicks successfully advanced to this year's Championship.

It's worth mentioning that when the fourth game of the series ended, celebratory confetti actually fluttered down from above the arena.

More than 18,000 Pacers fans didn't leave but witnessed Su Wan lifting this year's Eastern Conference Finals trophy.

As everyone knows, Su Wan has always been one to not touch those minor trophies.

But this time, among the cheers of the crowd, he made an exception and lifted the Eastern Conference championship trophy.

The atmosphere of this moment was almost indistinguishable from the "championship nights" of the past five years.

The people of Indiana shouted,

"Su Wan, go onto the finals and lift your sixth Championship Trophy of your career!"

Su Wan, faced with the cheers of all the Indiana natives, simply nodded.

Then, Su Wan hugged each teammate, including little O'Neal and Zach Randolph, and when leaving, he even directly passed through the home team's tunnel.

Herbert also came over to offer his blessings.

Meanwhile, all of New York was in an uproar.

Since '99, this was the first time the New York Knicks had made it to the finals.

Exactly 12 years had passed, a full cycle!

Back then, when they fell at the championship stage, nobody in New York could have imagined they would endure such an awful decade.

Of course, for them now...

If the awful 2000s were a test from God before they acquired Su Wan, then what they would like to say is...

We can endure such a test!

Because of Su Wan...

He's just too fucking awesome!

This is just his first year joining the New York Knicks.

Donnie Walsh took over this awful team two years ago, just finished clearing all the bad contracts, and was about to start rebuilding.

Yet Su Wan took such a team into the finals.

"Okay, we all know what the outside world's only doubt about Su Wan's leadership ability is..."

"He joined the Pacers when they were an established team!"

"The New York Knicks are not the same as the Pacers were..."

"The Pacers only had a chaotic atmosphere and scattered morale!"

"As long as they could regather their fighting spirit, they would still be a strong team."

"The New York Knicks are different; they are a team completely in the midst of rebuilding."

"No one could say that the team was strong before Su Wan joined, just like no one could confidently tell everyone at the start of the season that the New York Knicks would reach the finals."

"But now, Su Wan has led such a rebuilding team into the finals!"

"Any media people who still want to doubt Su Wan's leadership, take a break!"

"You must admit what you're witnessing is a monster whose leadership ability rivals that of Michael Jordan."

"And to add just one more thing..."

"Michael Jordan's peak leadership began at 28."

"And Su Wan, he's only just 26, wait, 25 years and eleven months old!"

That's the scariest part!

Barely entering his peak, his leadership is already comparable to peak Michael Jordan.

Just wait for this guy to reach his absolute peak...

I can't even think about it, I truly can't!

The latest issue of the New York Times featured a photo of Su Wan holding up the Eastern Conference championship trophy with a crown on his head.

What else is there to say?

The crown you place on your own head is fake.

The crown others place on you, that's what really has value.

But right now, the New York media is just Su Wan's cheerleader, chanting "master, master" all day; the crown they bestow on Su Wan doesn't have much persuasion.

At least, that's how Su Wan sees it.

Returning to New York for Erin's interview.

The Western Conference finals are currently in full swing, with the four games played tied at 2-2.

The "King Mountain Battle" is set for tonight.

Erin asked Su Wan, "Which team do you hope makes it into the final of the finals."

Su Wan smiled and said, "It doesn't make much difference; either way, we have a beef!"

They all need to die!

But after thinking about it, he still said, "I hope it's the Spurs, defeating them would be a good omen!"

His first championship in his career was won against them.

And then he directly kicked off a career of six championships in five years.

This omen...

There really isn't anything better than that!

Now in his first year of a trade, if he takes his first championship against the Spurs again, then...

Not to say anything else, but at least a "six championships in five years"!

His remarks, after getting reported, received recognition from the New York media.

Originally, the New York media were analyzing that it might be a little better to face the Mavericks.
