Chapter 274: Su Wan Just Has Doggone Good Luck—Always Amazing Teammates
This means they have more time to adapt to the gym atmosphere without air conditioning.
The process is tougher than imagined.
On the first day of adaptive training, everyone collapsed on the ground after the session, including LeBron, who was gasping heavily.
It was late May, almost June, the lack of air conditioning turned the entire gym into a sauna, making every move inside more exhausting than usual, so much so that a training session felt more tiring than an official game.
Yet after the training, they grew more confident.
If even they find it difficult to adapt...
Then the New York Knicks...
Wade looked at LeBron beside him: "Brother, I have a strong feeling we're definitely going to win the next game!"
LeBron smiled with equal confidence: "I feel the same, Dwayne!"
Though inside his heart, he cursed viciously:
If it weren't for you and Chris, these two good-for-nothings, I wouldn't need to suffer like this!
Su Wan is too lucky, being able to team up with superstars like Ron Artest and Jermaine O'Neal.
Initially, LeBron thought he found such teammates too, thinking Wade and Chris Bosh were those type of players.
But as the results now show, they're just two good-for-nothings dragging him down!
His Ron Artest and Jermaine O'Neal seem nowhere in sight...
Filled with resentment, LeBron continued to suffer in the "steamer", but two days later he received some good news:
The league announced this season's "Best Team Roster".
He made the First Team.
Other members include:
"Su Wan, Derek Rose, Kevin Durant, and Howard."
The reason he made the team was simple:
No one else left!
The current situation for forwards is either too old or too young, those who can lead a team as core players, there are only a few left.
Apart from Kevin Durant, LeBron James barely qualifies.
"Second Team All-NBA: Kobe, Westbrook, Zach Randolph, Griffin, Yao Ming;"
"Third Team All-NBA: Wade, Chris Paul, Boris Dior, Kevin Love, Tyson Chandler;"
The Second and Third Teams introduced many new faces, including Westbrook, Griffin, Dior, and Kevin Love!
The appearance of these faces meant some old ones were pushed down.
Among them is...
Chris Bosh, who was in the Best First Team last season.
This time he didn't even make the Third Team.
Actually, he already saw this coming and mentally prepared himself for it.
However, seeing himself actually fall out of the "Best Team" this moment still brought disparity to his heart.
Especially seeing the New York media's news...
"Just as Su Wan said at the beginning of the season, Chris Bosh ultimately dropped out of the Best Team, his whole season was wasted due to sacrifices for LeBron."
"Dwayne also fell, he was the league's Second Team last season, but this season he's only Third Team!"
Moreover, seeing from media votes, he was nearly squeezed out by Stephen Curry.
"Is this LeBron's ability? He always seems to turn his star teammates into average players, he's truly amazing!"
Then, the New York media began to reflect:
"Let's look at the New York Knicks under Su Wan's leadership!"
"Last season Tyson made the Best Team for the first time in his career under his guidance, this time he's still on it!"
"More importantly, Boris, who just joined the New York Knicks, became a Best Player in his first year working with Su Wan again, let's congratulate Boris Dior!"
"That's not all, let's also congratulate Paul George!"
"He successfully made the Best Defensive Second Team as a sophomore!"
"Everyone around Su Wan has become better!"
"This is a true leader!"
LeBron looked at the New York media's mockery, feeling truly frustrated.
What does it mean Su Wan made them better?
Clearly, they were strong from the start!
In LeBron's opinion, Su Wan is just lucky in finding strong teammates.
If he were given this New York Knicks team, he is sure they'd become even stronger!
And amidst the New York media's satire, the series' third game between the Heat Team and the New York Knicks officially arrived...
