Chapter 175: Chapter 128 After All, I’m Not as Professional as Bruce

Su Wan ruthlessly humiliated the Spurs during the interview.

That’s what being a winner feels like.

He liked that feeling.

On the bus ride back, Rick Carlisle briefly summarized the shortcomings of the game for everyone, except for two people, one of whom was Su Wan.

Did he have problems on the court?

Of course, he did.

But everything he did had reached the limit of his current abilities.

Asking him to do other things, like making a beautiful pass or scoring a three-point shot...

It could be expected, but Rick Carlisle wouldn’t demand that of him.

As for the remaining minor flaws, a flaw does not hide the brilliance; needless to say.

No one plays without making mistakes.

Another was Reggie Miller.

It wasn’t that Miller’s performance was great tonight.

On the contrary, it was pretty bad.

One out of four from beyond the three-point line.

The San Antonio fans’ interference tactics had been successful, and Reggie Miller hadn’t slept much these past few days.

The lack of sleep had severely affected his performance.

And it wasn’t something Reggie Miller could easily adjust to on his own.

Su Wan did know a way to help Reggie Miller sleep better, which made Miller curious yet skeptical.

He looked at the rookie with doubtful eyes.

Su Wan said, "You could call a couple of girls to the hotel to take good care of you, I believe, after their service, you would definitely sleep well."

"Fuck off!" Reggie Miller cursed.

A rookie advising an old bird to get laid, he actually encountered such a fresh incident.

Speaking of which, Reggie Miller thought of something:

"You seem quite interested in Eva?"

Su Wan shook his head, "Not me—someone is interested in Eva. I just pretend to be interested to provoke him."

Reggie Miller gave him a "don’t fool me" look:

"I saw her giving you her phone number after the game."

Su Wan admitted, "Yes, she mentioned she wanted to visit Indiana to watch a game in the future. I told her it’s simple, she just needs to buy a ticket at Conseco Arena. If she needs to save money, she could mention my name, although I’m not sure if that would help."

Reggie Miller, with a thoughtful expression, said, "Su, I thought about it carefully, and you indeed haven’t been involved in any scandals so far."

Su Wan gave Reggie Miller a puzzled look, not understanding what he meant by that.

Reggie Miller shrugged, "Nothing... just suddenly realized why."

"Although I still don’t understand, I feel like I’m being underestimated!" Su Wan revealed his fighting spirit, "Just wait and see, Reggie, one day you will read in the newspapers about me being involved in a scandal with some famous actress."

"I’ve never met a guy like this!"

On the other hand, on the way back to the hotel, Eva was complaining to her best friend about Su Wan.

People say fame changes people, Su Wan hadn’t even touched her hand, and his attitude changed immediately after the game.

What kind of man is that!

Seeing her so angry, her friend suggested, "What do you think about Tony Parker then? You two seemed to get along well before the game!"

"Not a chance, I must make a trip to Indiana. I refuse to believe I can’t win over this 19-year-old kid!"

Eva didn’t pay attention to what her friend said.

Her mind was entirely filled with Su Wan.

Her friend silently shook her head and took out her phone to log into Facebook and sent a private message to Tony Parker:

"Eva probably is no longer interested in you."

Damn it!

Tony Parker had been anxiously waiting for a reply.

He knew there wasn’t much hope since Eva hadn’t responded to his messages.

But...

When he actually saw the message, Tony Parker still felt emptiness in his heart.

It was a great humiliation!

For a playboy, there was nothing more painful than being rejected by a woman because of another man.

Parker’s misery was twofold.

It was bad enough to be tortured on the court, but damn it, to be tortured off the court as well!

Su Wan, you just wait!

After a day’s rest, the second game of the championship officially began.

Although they had won the first game of the finals, the Pacers were not satisfied.

From their perspective, if they could fight for another victory, they would return to their home court with a 2-0 lead.

At this time, the finals format had not yet been changed and was still 2-3-2.

Who knows, maybe the league intended to favor the team with the weaker record to make the finals more suspenseful.

Anyway, now that they had won one game, the Pacers held a great advantage.

If they were to win another, the pressure on the Spurs would be as great as the name of the Rockets’ owner.

This was what the Pacers hoped to see.

Therefore, their desire for victory was no less intense than in the last game.

Bruce Bowen was unsuspended for this game.

The local San Antonio crowd gave him a huge cheer when he appeared, not only welcoming him back but hoping he could help the Spurs turn the game around.

Popovich only had one thing to say to him, "Stop that rookie!"

The game then officially started.

O’Neal successfully got the ball.

As soon as Su Wan caught the ball in the frontcourt, Bruce Bowen stuck to him.

Tim Duncan’s position was also closer to the high post than before.

This was a defensive stance the Spurs hadn’t shown in the first game.

Su Wan quickly learned why.

Bruce Bowen’s entanglement ability was indeed better than Manu Ginobili’s.
