Su Wan burst forth with expletives.
"You Cleveland think you can play sentintality with ?"
The fan, initially full of anticipation, was dumbfounded. He hadn’t expected Su Wan to react like this to the "surprise" he’d prepared.
"Who the hell let this guy in?"
Su Wan turned and stord off, growing angrier by the second as he cursed his way back.
The Cleveland fan was now being restrained by security but wasn’t planning on leaving the arena. He was about to shout after Su Wan’s retreating figure:
"Co back, Su Wan!"
But when he saw Su Wan turning around furiously, he didn’t even need the security to pull him; he hurriedly scurried towards the fan exits.
That speed; you could instantly tell whose fan he was.
It was no wonder Su Wan reacted so forcefully, having won the championship and being on such a joyful day only to have a Cleveland fan show up to annoy him, telling him Cleveland needed him.
Why didn’t they trade for LeBron Jas in the first place if they needed him so much?
Now they need him?
Need your grandma’s leg!
Because Cleveland once chose him, should he forget being abandoned? Return to the city after being "Black Eight" to save them?
Cleveland, your face is really thick!
Su Wan once thought about going back to do a big job after LeBron left Cleveland.
But now with 5 championships under his belt, he’d only one goal:
That was to catch up to Michael Jordan and then take him down!
Additionally...
Last sumr’s collaboration with ESPN showed him the huge comrcial value waiting to be tapped in the business sector.
No, it couldn’t even be called tapping anymore.
Now, he just needed to go to a significant platform, and endless business deals would co knocking.
Sotis, comrcial value is also a testant to influence!
Why is Jordan considered the greatest superstar? His net worth of $3.2 billion in 2024 speaks volus.
Su Wan’s total assets, now about $73.5 million.
Compared to his achievents, his speed of earning obviously didn’t match.
Of course, there were many dostic brands wanting to sign him, but he feared their products might flop, so he generally refused them.
Moreover, when dostic brands approached him, they usually offered between 2 million RMB to 5 million RMB, which roughly translates to between $250,000 and $625,000 USD; even if he took on five endorsents, that would only make $3 million USD—still a slow pace in term of earning.
Having too many brands could give dostic fans the impression that he only cared about money.
He absolutely didn’t need to do this; just honestly earning US dollars in the United States was sufficient!
But for that reason alone, he could already pass on teams from smaller cities.
In a post-ga interview, Shaquille O’Neal brought up retirent again, "I will seriously consider this matter!"
Then, just like last season, he took a shot at LeBron again, "Fact proves, not only can Su Wan lead an aging Shaq to a championship, he can also lead an aging Shaq to defend the title. LeBron, if you want a championship, I can give you a suggestion—co cling to Su Wan’s coattails!"
"I know, when you hear this, you’ll definitely scoff, but I have to tell you a harsh truth: even if you want to join Su Wan’s team, the decision isn’t up to you; Su Wan might not let you join his team!"
Su Wan attended the post-ga press conference, specifically wearing the Pacers’ No. 99 jersey.
Tonight, the journalists at Conseco Arena had almost all stayed; they were all waiting for what might be Su Wan’s last post-ga press conference as a Pacers player.
Seeing him specially dressed in the Pacers No. 99 jersey standing before the microphone.
This group of journalists beca even more convinced of it.
"I still need to et with Steve; after that, I will formally decide my future,"—Su Wan answered whether he would opt out of his contract;
"Shaq is absolutely right, I won’t let LeBron into my team,"—Su Wan responded to Shaquille O’Neal’s renewed jibe at LeBron;
"I’m very moved and grateful, these six years in Indiana have not been in vain!"—Su Wan speaking about the banners in the audience appealing for him to stay;
The next morning, the news of Su Wan leading the Pacers to "6 championships in 6 years" spread across the United States.
The topic of whether Su Wan could surpass Michael Jordan was brought up again.
Worth ntioning is:
So dia already believe that Su Wan and Jordan are now on the sa level.
After all...
A well-known fact: Michael Jordan’s professional career spanned only 6 seasons.
Hehe~
Su Wan, just 20 days shy of his 25th birthday, had nearly completed the "feat" only possible during Michael Jordan’s peak—a remarkable ability.
This also heightened anticipation for what he would bring to the league once he entered his physical pri.
Whether Su Wan would opt out of his contract also sparked considerable debate.
Almost all dia believed with certainty that Su Wan would opt out.
Note, this ti the dia used "definitely!"
Two years ago, when discussing whether Su Wan would leave the Pacers, most dia’s attitude was "should," "could."
The general sentint hasn’t changed much.
But emotionally, it has beco much firr!
and 23 may look only 2 years apart.
But the ti from age 25 to 30 is a period when an athlete’s physical condition is at its peak.
