From an advertising perspective, Su Wan’s "Night of 54 Points" docuntary was successful.
Once it was released, it generated a massive buzz.
But it did cause significant harm to LeBron.
The dia all knew there was a feud between Su Wan and LeBron, but they didn’t realize the extent of it.
It was so intense that Su Wan made a "docuntary" specifically to diss him.
Of course, so dia personnel weren’t surprised.

He even dared to break Michael’s ribs—dissing LeBron was just a small talk for him.
What was more fatal was that so dia interpreted LeBron Jas’s performance last season from Su Wan’s perspective and found...
Everything was correct!
Defensive lackluster, inconsistent movent on both ends, staying on the court even when far behind in scores...
Barkley delivered the "fatal blow," "If I had such a teammate, I would also find him displeasing!"
Kenny Smith chid in, "The new season will be a critical juncture in LeBron’s career. If he can’t provide a satisfactory answer to prove himself, he will completely fall from the pedestal of the strongest rookie."
"The Chosen One" had made him the "Strongest High School Student," "20 plus 5 plus 5" had turned him into the third greatest rookie in history after Big O and Michael Jordan, but with Su Wan’s arrival last season, all these titles were now under intense scrutiny, which he would need to prove himself this season.
LeBron Jas had just finished watching Su Wan’s "Night of 54 Points" docuntary; a 15-minute docuntary took him an hour to watch, pressing pause seven or eight tis, each ti taking a long while to calm his emotions before continuing.
By the end, his expression was extrely distorted.
Damn Huaxia people!
He had never experienced such humiliation.
It was no different from being pointed at and scolded.
fxxk!
He planned to call Nike and ask why they allowed Su Wan to film such a docuntary.
And why was he totally unaware of it?
But when LeBron saw the unanimous denunciation and doubts from the outside world, fear was evident in his angry eyes.
He had never experienced such a scenario.
In his mory, since becoming the "Chosen One," whenever the dia ntioned him, it was always in glowing terms.
He didn’t know when these dia stopped speaking for him.
Instead, they were all about criticisms and doubts.
Even the smallest issue would be picked out!
If Su Wan were here right now, he would tell him:
LeBron, this is the real world of a player!
Play well and get praise, play poorly, and get scolded.
The "Truman world" that Nike created for you, I’ve shattered it.
You’re welco!
And at this mont, he reconsidered that issue:
Why would Nike allow Su Wan to shoot such a docuntary.
Why wasn’t he inford beforehand!
The panic in his eyes beca more noticeable, and his fingers trembled as he held his phone.
Is Nike going to...
Abandon ?
No, they can’t, they definitely won’t.
I am the "Chosen One!"
The League’s future "face," how could Nike possibly abandon ?
I had initially turned down Reebok and Adidas, insisting on signing with them.
They shouldn’t just give up on like this!
Pressing several tis on his phone, he finally managed to call a Nike representative. He suppressed his fear and tried to control his slightly trembling voice, making him sound sowhat repressed:
"I need an explanation from you!"
The Nike representative didn’t detect LeBron’s distress but knew he would be upset, so he brought out a prepared speech:
"The incident is drawing a lot of attention right now, but the opportunity is still in your hands. Su questioned your style of play, so in the new season lead your team to better results, deliver better performances when facing him, and shut him up completely. Then, your reputation can be turned around! Because you will have proven that Su is wrong, and you just chose a different path on the court. There are many ways to influence the outco of a ga, but this path is also right!"
What the representative didn’t say was that Nike also hoped to push LeBron a bit with this.
They were very satisfied with his statistics;
However, they were not quite satisfied with his team leadership results;
Failing to make it to the playoffs for two consecutive years, despite there being All-Star teammates, was not very "Chosen One-like."
Especially since Su Wan had won the Finals MVP right off the bat.
As the person who will compete with Su Wan in the future, LeBron cannot lag too far behind.
It was a bit extre, but only extre asures could bring out LeBron’s full potential.
Of course, if he knew LeBron thought Nike would give up on him, he would have told him more directly that what they have invested in him was unprecedented for any rookie.
This ant that they could only succeed, not fail, and certainly not give up.
Half an hour later, Richie Paul appeared at LeBron’s house.
LeBron was in a ssy state of mind; he needed Richie Paul to confirm whether the Nike representative’s words were true or false: "Is it just about putting pressure on and not about giving up on ?"
Paul was smart, he deduced the words Nike didn’t say.
LeBron grew nervous at the ti and started biting his nails: "Are you saying that Nike executives are getting anxious?"
Seeing how LeBron was, Richie Paul realized he had been too honest and quickly changed his way of expressing: "They just think you should beco arch-rivals with Su Wan and use this as a way for you to prove to the world that you’ll be the one to slap Su Wan’s face!"
