Don't talk trash to him.

Chapter 218 It’s time for you to reflect on this, the Chosen One!
Now everyone in the league knows not to talk trash to Su Wan!
Vince Carter also knows this.

I also know...

So he did it!

Do not misunderstand!
He doesn't have the spirit of the snake in Luocheng.

At least it’s definitely gone now.

But...the way the Cleveland media threw dirty water on him before the game was really disgusting.

He was indeed beaten badly by Su Wan.

But this team clearly had guys who performed worse than him, but they pretended not to see it.

If that’s the case, then don’t play anymore!
Vince Ye Wenjie Carter decisively "replied" to the "message".

Su Wan was stunned for a moment.

What is this “Those who are righteous will have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous will have few supporters”?

Very good, this is very Carter!
The fourth quarter officially begins.

LeBron James didn't notice Vince Carter's actions at all, his face was full of excitement and desire to fight.

12 minutes left...

Just maintain the 6-point lead.

Then the historic moment is coming!

LeBron James has already shot a promotional video for "Rise from the Ashes," but he feels that the film was shot too early and can be re-shot this summer.

As long as you win once, you can definitely win a second time!

This is definitely LeBron James' most combative episode.

So much so that when he found Su Wan standing in front of him, he was not so scared.

He felt as if he had surrounded the palace with a large group of people. As the leader, he rode a tall horse and looked down at Su Wan, who was half-kneeling on the ground with a wound on his shoulder...

After tonight, this nightmare will be killed by him!
However, just when he was full of determination and was about to break through with the ball, ready to personally split the "dark cloud" that had been hanging over his head for three years, the "dark cloud" took the initiative to cover him first.

The speed is very fast and the start is sudden.

Suwan perfectly avoided the pick-and-roll by Varejao who was sneaking in from the inside!
LeBron suddenly felt a sense of oppression.

He habitually "reverses".

But he still couldn't avoid Su Wan's "Su's Hand".

"Snapped!"

A slap hit the ball.

LeBron just felt his hands empty, and his body reacted automatically, following Su Wan to chase after the ball that slipped out of his hands.

"Bah!"

LeBron's tonnage is not to be underestimated.

The two people collided with each other, and the person who was pushed away was Su Wan.

Just as he staggered, Su Wan stabilized his center of gravity at incredible speed and rushed forward again.

It was like a hungry wolf that knew no fatigue until its enemy fell.

The ball that LeBron had just controlled was knocked away by him again. This time, the person who touched the ball first was Su Wan.

The "Son of Cleveland" was intercepted twice in a row, and he was a little anxious at this moment, chasing straight towards Su Wan. His amazing explosive power allowed him to block Su Wan's path in advance.

"Bah!"

Su Wan, who was running at the fastest speed, completely ignored LeBron in front of him and just changed direction without slowing down. The exaggerated change of direction and the lightning-fast lateral movement made LeBron seem as if he had seen a monster.

In order to block Su Wan, his body moved in advance.

So much so that at this moment it seemed as if the two people were moving in completely opposite directions.

"Bah!"

As LeBron stood still, Suwan also completed a dunk.

The audience had been cheering since Suwan completed the first steal. The cheers were much louder when he made the second steal. From the moment he stunned LeBron in place to the final dunk, the Conseco Center was directly on fire.

"The zone"!
This is definitely opening up “The zone”!
Not only did the fans at the scene notice this, but Mike Brown on the Cavaliers bench also noticed it.

He was so scared that he quickly called a timeout.

"Who is it?"

No tactics were deployed.

Instead, they started playing the game of "catching the ghost".

His eyes slid across the faces of each player.

Channing Frye... Impossible!

Quentin... Impossible!
LeBron James...there is no chance at all. Look at the end of this round, he was so scared by the kid that his face, which was full of red glow just now, is now gone, and he looks like he has lost his soul.

How dare such a guy talk trash to Su Wan?
So, let’s dig into the new machine…

His eyes fell on Vince Carter.

Sure enough, "UFO" had an expression that said "That's me, whatever I want."

Hey!
Mike Brown sighed inwardly.

He actually knows why Vince Carter did this.

The Cleveland media mocked Carter harshly in yesterday's report, with all kinds of sarcasm, as if Vince Carter was the worst player in the league.

Even ordinary players would feel resentful if treated like this, let alone Vince Carter!
"LeBron, it's up to you!"

That was all Mike Brown said in the end.

The "little emperor"'s face looked as if he had seen a ghost.

I?
You want me to deal with Su Wan in this state?
Otherwise you can just let me die!
He still feels a chill down his spine from the pressure Su Wan just put on him on the defensive end.

He rarely had this feeling, and it was always Su Wan who brought it to him in the past.

But as soon as Mike Brown said this, everyone turned their eyes to him.

The arrow was on the string and had to be shot. He could only grit his teeth and say, "Come on, no matter what, we are still the leading side. If we keep this lead to the end, we will win. Let alone Su Wan, even if Michael Jordan really comes, we will win the game tonight!"

A beautiful scene speech.

You know what, some of us guys were really excited.

After Channing Frye and Quentin came on the court, they took the initiative to create space for LeBron.

It’s not that they cooperate well with LeBron.

To be honest, Gibson was much more comfortable passing the ball to them last season.

But the hope of defeating Suwan is right in front of them, and they also want to give it a try to wash away the embarrassment of not being able to win when facing Suwan as Cavaliers players.

This is the spirit of an NBA player.

Nothing else.

But their active running gradually stopped.

because……

LeBron was holding the ball and facing Suwan, and he felt something was wrong. He said "Please be careful when reversing" and retreated to the front of the center line, then slowly approached.

But Suwan stood at the three-point line and ignored his movement. This position is very particular, LeBron needs to dribble one step forward to make an "eight-step layup".

This gives the other Pacers players time to prepare for the interception.

Moreover, Su Wan's positioning can offset some of his strength, making his subsequent breakthrough not so fierce.

If Suwan's position is too forward or too backward, it will give LeBron the space and opportunity to accelerate, allowing him to complete the acceleration.

The most ferocious thing about LeBron's breakthrough is the impact force after he speeds up, as well as the final handwork.

The rest is not worth mentioning.

This is why you can always see him "reversing" with the ball.

He couldn't get up the speed, and he knew that even if he rushed in, he wouldn't be able to beat the defender inside.

Seeing that Suwan was not fooled, LeBron could only "reverse" again, and time was passing quickly second by second.

Frye and Quentin stopped moving after LeBron's two "reverses". They looked at each other speechlessly.

What can we do?

This is LeBron James in Cleveland.

There were less than 24 seconds left in the last 5 seconds, and the Cavaliers' entire formation was almost at a standstill. He suddenly threw the ball to the right, and the ball fell into Vince Carter's hands.

Carter threw the ball to the corner without even looking.

He doesn't want to be involved in this "pot".

Channing Frye at the baseline really didn't expect that he would be able to catch the ball with only 24 seconds left in the 3-second offensive time. He raised his hand in a hurry, but the ball had already flown past him to the audience seats on the sidelines.

"beep!"

The referee blows the whistle.

The Cavaliers' first attack after the timeout ended with a turnover with 23 seconds left.

The cheers at the scene were deafening.

Mike Brown had no choice but to sigh helplessly and stroke his own "dog head" with his hand.

Does this have to be the head coach of the Cavaliers?

LeBron James was also shaking his head, what kind of teammate is this!

What’s the use of them if they can’t even catch the ball?

On the Pacers side, the ball was given to Suwan again.

Su Wan looked at LeBron provocatively, and seeing that he had no intention of switching defense, he easily scored a goal with a "quick stop jump shot" facing Quentin.

The 6-point difference suddenly dropped to only 2 points.

The scene was completely agitated:

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

With uniform shouts that shook the floor, the Pacers' defense in this round was of very high quality. LeBron, who had finally broken into the inside, was blocked by Zach Randolph, and Suwan rushed out from the side and blocked the ball from his hand with a slap.

This block was very fierce.

Before LeBron had completely jumped up, Su Wan jumped high as if there were springs under his feet and pushed the ball back from LeBron's hand.

Straight up and down, it hit LeBron's nose directly.

A sour and spicy feeling came from LeBron's nose, making him cover his nose unconsciously, and then tears flowed.

There was a burst of surprise at the scene.

Even Su Wan was a little at a loss.

He didn't expect that the block would hit LeBron directly in the face.

But the outrageous thing is...

LeBron, covering his nose and crying, found the referee on the sidelines very accurately and complained to him that Suwan's foul was a flagrant foul.

As if to increase the credibility of his statement, LeBron spread out his hands.

You can see blood flowing from his nose.

Then, the world tragedy was born:
LeBron, crying and bleeding from his nose, spread his hands and complained to the referee about the unfairness of fate.

In fact, the referee saw it very clearly. This ball was an accident. Suwan did not touch LeBron at all. He just blocked the ball and it fell straight down on LeBron's face. There was no foul.

To be precise, it was LeBron who interrupted the Pacers' fast break opportunity.

But seeing how miserable LeBron was, the referee still symbolically took a look at the video replay.

Su Wan felt a little apologetic at first, but when he saw LeBron's true nature exposed and wanted to foul, he said speechlessly to the referee next to him: "Wipe this ball carefully, it's not clean anymore!"

I've never seen such a speechless person.

The final result is still the original penalty:
LeBron's injury was an accident, but Suwan's block was still effective.

So when the game resumes, the ball will still belong to the Pacers.

In the attack to overtake the score, Suwan went to full power and rushed into the basket with "1 vs 4". Then, after attracting the attention of everyone on the Cavaliers, he passed the ball to Randolph next to him under the basket.

Randolph hit the ball and caused Channing to foul, and made the free throw, helping the team officially take the lead.

Su Wan asked him, "How does it feel to be a hero again?"

Randolph subconsciously said: "It feels great!"

Seeing Su Wan's evil smile, Randolph felt ashamed as if a chaste woman had been caught secretly enjoying herself.

Then, the Pacers got into full swing and launched wave after wave of offense.

The huge gap between LeBron and Suwan was also fully reflected in these rounds.

Not only did Suwan play smoothly on offense, he also fully motivated his teammates, and at the same time he successfully restricted LeBron James on the defensive end.

LeBron's tank-like impact this season is impressive. But Suwan's superb body control ability and concentration in "The Zone" allow him to instantly judge LeBron's intended move and complete the interception.

The Cavaliers' offense during this period was basically LeBron holding the ball for at least 7-8 seconds before giving it to Vince Carter, who then reorganized the game and shot. More often, other Cavaliers players received the ball when there was not much time left, had no choice but to shoot, heard the sound of the basket hitting the iron, and then watched the Pacers secure the rebound and counterattack.

LeBron James became more and more anxious as the game went on.

Channing Frye missed a three-pointer after receiving the ball, and LeBron threw his hands at him in an impatient manner. Frye was stunned.

no……

When I got the ball, there were only 3 seconds left.

The pressure of taking action in this situation alone is already great.

The opponent's defense is also fast. You don't think it's easy to shoot this kind of ball, do you?
He felt very aggrieved.

But with his status, he couldn't respond, so he could only...

If you share, I share too!
Counter-spread!

With more than 6 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Pacers widened the gap to 12 points.

The Cavaliers' high fighting spirit gradually faded with Suwan's efforts and a series of frustrating operations by LeBron.

With three minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Pacers widened the gap to 3 points.

In less than 10 minutes of the fourth quarter alone, the Cavaliers lost 23 points!
This is also fully reflected in Suwan and LeBron's data in the fourth quarter.

Suwan scored 19 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in the fourth quarter, while LeBron...

Only 5 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist, but 3 turnovers!
When Suwan is in "The zone" state, he gives LeBron the feeling on the defensive end, just like Artest with faster reactions.

His "three tricks" didn't stand a chance against Su Wan at all.

Bill Walton said: "It's a pity that LeBron still can't break through his inner demons!"

Barkley said: "This is why LeBron has never been able to defeat Suwan. When the Pacers need Suwan to stand up, he always stands up, and when the Cavaliers need LeBron to stand up, he always makes people feel regretful!"

And LeBron himself feels...

As the sun sets, he stands in front of the ruined palace, kneeling on one knee, holding the sword still in his hand, supporting his body.

Opposite him stood Suwan, Zach Randolph, Foster, Anthony Parker, Boris Diaw and other enemies...

Oh!
And Vince Carter also stood on the opposite side!

There was no one around him.

In his opinion, the reason for this loss was that Su Wan had better teammates than him.

It’s always like this…

If Su Wan's career was given to him, he would let Su Wan know what cruelty is.

What else can I say now?

Today, even though I am dead, I am still “the chosen one”!
He had reason to think so.

Barkley and Bill Walton looked at his stats in the fourth quarter.

LeBron looked at the whole-game stats. He scored 24 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the first three quarters. Putting aside 4 turnovers and 10 free throws, his stats are absolutely worthy of his status as the absolute core of the Cavaliers.

He persisted for three quarters and led the team to a 6-point lead. If someone on the Cavaliers could step up to help him in the fourth quarter and perform at an MVP level, would the Cavaliers be like this now?

There aren’t enough helpers!

At the end of the game, the Pacers were trailing by 5 points at the end of the third quarter, but they made a comeback in the third quarter and eventually had a 20-point difference.

The Cavaliers suffered a crushing defeat, which affected their momentum. In the fourth game of the series, they had not yet recovered from the defeat in the fourth quarter of the previous game. They were suppressed by the Pacers from the start of the entire game and did not take the lead even once. After 7 minutes and 14 seconds in the third quarter, the score difference was stabilized at more than double digits.

Before the fourth quarter even started, the score difference was 15 points.

Vince Carter looked at the score difference, then looked at LeBron's appearance, and finally looked at Suwan.

He added: "Only won by 15 points? Is this all you can do, Su Wan?"

Su Wan: “…”

This was the first time he felt that someone hated LeBron more than he did.

128 to 99, this is the final score of the fourth game between the Pacers and the Cavaliers.

If Mike Brown hadn't waved the white flag and replaced LeBron and others at 6 minutes and 34 seconds in the fourth quarter, causing Rick Carlisle to replace Suwan and others, the score difference would have been even greater.

After winning this game, the Pacers officially won the fourth game of the series with a big score of 4-4, sweeping the Cavaliers for the third consecutive year.

After sweeping the first round and the Eastern Conference Finals, this time the Pacers completed the "Black Six" of "overcoming the strong with the weak".

The Cavaliers, who had a better record, suffered a brutal massacre.

There was a lot of booing outside.

This result was originally expected.

But during the game, they found that the Cavaliers were not completely without chances.

But LeBron didn't catch it...

After the third game, there were many voices mocking LeBron James from the outside world.

Things like "It's useless even if you're given a chance" and "The Chosen One is the biggest joke in this league" obviously affected LeBron's mentality, so that in the fourth game, his performance was very low...

Well, there is one more thing we have to mention. In the fourth game, LeBron's whistle was obviously less. In the first three games, there were at least three whistles in the first quarter. This time, he only got six free throw opportunities in the whole game.

With the protection of the whistle, the Pacers will inevitably be cautious when defending and will have many concerns when taking action, so LeBron can be relatively relaxed.

But without the protection of the whistle, the Pacers became even more unscrupulous, which is why LeBron only scored 13 points in the fourth game.

The New York Times said: "We should have a correct understanding of LeBron James. If we still regard him as a player like Michael Jordan, it is a disrespect to Michael. In fact, even if LeBron is regarded as Scottie Pippen, it needs to be questioned now! LeBron James' mind is even more fragile than Scottie's!"

Barkley also said: "LeBron once again proved that he can never give the most favorable answer at the critical moment. To be honest, even if we lose, if LeBron can get a sufficiently gorgeous data in this game, then I will think he has grown, but he didn't. As always, he performed worse and worse in the series with Suwan!"

LeBron's performance in the first few games was pretty good, but with his poor performance in the last game, his final average stats in this series were only 23.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 4.5 turnovers.

As the core of the team, these data can only be described as mediocre.

If you really look at this data from the perspective of the "Chosen One", it's a mess.

再跟苏万场均35.5分7篮板3.5助攻2.5抢断1.5盖帽的数据放在一起比较。

Then it really is...

The gap is widening infinitely!

LeBron probably noticed that the media's attitude towards him was getting lower and lower. In the press conference after the game, he said directly:
"I have been trying to attack the Pacers' inside line and constantly put pressure on the opponent. I am the most effective player with the ball on the Cavaliers. If you pay attention to the win-loss value, you will find that my win-loss value is the best on the Cavaliers. I broke through the Pacers' heavy defense and found teammates in open positions. My playing style achieved the tactical goal, but I didn't score a goal. This is not something I can decide alone!"

"The Pacers are different. Foster is in position, Zach Randolph can hold the ball and play hard under the basket, and there are other players. They all have their own responsibilities. They play more like a team. This is the fundamental reason why the Cavaliers lost!"

Wouldn't the Cavaliers be better off with Vince Carter around me?

damn it!
Finally, he cursed fiercely in his heart.

When Shaquille O'Neal heard what he said, he immediately fought back in New Jersey: "Stop talking about your teammates, LeBron!"

“Why do the players you work with always have problems?”

"And a player like Zach can get along perfectly with Su Wan?"

"No offense to Zach, but we all know what kind of player Zach Randolph was when he was with the Trail Blazers and in New York!"

"But we all saw the changes he made in Indiana, and this is also where LeBron is not as good as Suwan!"

"Danny Ferry has already moved all over the league for him, but he can never get along well with his new players. This is LeBron's biggest problem!"

"You should reflect on this, Chosen One!"

A word to wake up the dreamer!

Shaquille O'Neal's words immediately triggered reactions from outside media.

yes!
Why is Zach Randolph becoming more and more active on the court after joining the Pacers?

And it seems that since going to Indiana, he has not caused any trouble off the court!

This is……

“The prodigal son returns”?

"What kind of charm does Su Wan have?"

This was the question asked by the New York Times the next day.

because……

On the same day, the news that Ron Artest was arrested by police for speeding appeared in the New York City Paper.

And when he was in Indiana, especially after the "Palace of Auburn Hills incident," he had never heard of anything like this happening.

The infamous Randolph went to Indiana and became a "good boy".

Artest, the "former representative of the prodigal son who turned over a new leaf" who had just left Indiana and returned to New York not long ago, was put in jail.

Two strong contrasts, it is obvious whose contribution is obvious!

Larry Bird stepped forward at this time and added fuel to the fire: "When I was still hesitating about getting Zach Randolph, Suwan told me that Indiana is the city of redemption and Zach will be reborn here!"

"And then... this all happened!"

"Su Wan proved that he was right!"

This time, Su Wan was pushed to the altar even more.

Everyone wanted to know how he tamed these problem players and got them to focus on the court.

Su Wan said: "It's very simple. Come with a heart and leave without taking any grass. It all comes down to two words: sincerity. We Chinese people love making friends the most!"

Then, before Zach Randolph was interviewed, he specifically said, "Speak nicely, Zach. You don't want to go into the small black room again, do you?"

Randolph forced an awkward smile and said to the media: "How did Sue change me? What did he say... Was he sincere? Oh... He was indeed very sincere. When I first came to the team, he helped me a lot. He is such a warm person and is willing to help others. He never bullies his teammates!"

The New York Times was stunned to see Randolph's gentle and humble appearance.

Although Randolph has only been with the New York Knicks for more than half a season, his image as a "stats brush" on the court and a "troublemaker" off the court has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts. For a while, the New York media even described Zach Randolph like this: "This guy and Isaiah Thomas are the two most hopeless people in the world!"

This shows how bad Randolph's media image is.

At this moment, the New York media realized it!
Want to save the current Knicks...

That idiot Dolan is not good, and that idiot Thomas is even worse!
The only thing that can save people stuck in the quagmire is...

Suwan!

Since he can save Artest and Randolph...

Then he will definitely be able to save the New York Knicks!
Are there any worse players than these two?
The New York media has been singing Suwan's praises crazily.

Now seeing his "purification" move, people regard him as the best candidate to save the Knicks.

After noticing this trend, Thomas immediately bailed Artest out of the police station. The two of them had dinner together and discussed the future of New York: "Ron, if we can bring Suwan to New York this summer, believe me, we will definitely become heroes of this city, and all the media will sing praises for us crazily!"

Artest originally thought that Thomas was here to question him for being caught speeding and to use this incident to suppress his new contract. When he heard what he said, his expression changed: "Isaiah, you are right. As long as Suwan comes, you will definitely become the best general manager in the history of the New York Knicks. And my relationship with Suwan is, let's put it this way... better than good brothers!"

"Huh?" Thomas looked puzzled.

Artest didn't notice his misguided expression, and continued to talk: "Do you know why Suwan performed so well in his rookie season? Let me tell you, that was all because of the bullfights I played with him! During that time, let's put it this way, no one in the entire Pacers team had a better relationship with him than I did! It's the same now!"

"Do you know why Larry Bird chose to trade with you?"

"It's because Su Wan said that he wanted me to go back to New York. He thought I could live comfortably here!"

You really feel comfortable, you even feel comfortable enough to be sent to the police station!

Thomas complained in his heart, but he didn't dwell on it. Instead, his eyes became even brighter.

If Artest was not lying, then the relationship between him and Suwan was indeed very good.

But he still had some doubts.

After all, the Su Wan he saw in the media was always flamboyant.

Can he consider his teammates to this extent?
It's no wonder Thomas thought so.

What this guy is best at is stabbing people in the back.

On the surface, they stick close to "Magic" to create public opinion for themselves, but then they turn around and say "Old Johnson is no good, he wants us all to die together when he comes back."

Can Artest, with his hot temper, tolerate such questioning looks?

I took out my cell phone and waved it towards Thomas: "Look, I'm going to call Su Wan right now. As long as he sees it's from me, he'll answer the call in ten seconds, no, five seconds!"

Thomas also became interested and made a gesture of "please start your performance".

Artest snorted and proudly pressed the dial button.

5, 4, 3, 2...

Not to mention, in just 4 seconds, a voice came from the other end of the phone, a little lazy, as if the person had fallen asleep and was woken up. Thomas could tell that it was indeed Su Wan's voice.

"Does this mean I should go to the New York Police Department to bail you out?"

"Hey, buddy is out. I saw you swept LeBron again, so I called you to congratulate you."

"Get lost, I don't have time to chat with you!"

Then there was a busy tone on the phone.

Artest was not embarrassed at all after being scolded, and looked at Thomas in a boastful manner:
see!

It's just like that!
Thomas nodded in approval.

Although they didn't talk much, he could hear Su Wan's teasing concern.

After knowing that Artest was fine, he hung up the phone.

This shows that the relationship between these two people is really good.

"Then Ron, it's up to you. As long as Suwan can come to the New York Knicks this summer, I will definitely give you a maximum salary contract!" Thomas said generously.

Artest curled his lips and said unhappily, "Isaiah, I must tell you in advance that Su Wan doesn't like dealing with people who play tricks on him. Do you understand what I mean?"

Thomas was stunned for a moment, then asked tentatively: "You mean... we should sign the contract extension first?"

When Artest heard this, he smiled: "If Su Wan hears you being so straightforward, he will definitely have a good impression of you!"

"Well, well, that couldn't be better!" Thomas showed his signature smile.

How could he not see that it was Artest who wanted to finalize the contract first!
but……

What does it matter?

It's not his money anyway.

Everyone has seen Artest's performance after his move to New York. He averaged 19.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 4 assists per game. Coupled with his defensive ability, even if he does not reach the maximum salary, he is definitely capable of making around 1100 million.

Then in New York, which is overpriced, he will have to renew his contract with a maximum salary!
There is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

That night, Thomas signed a five-year, $5 million contract extension with Artest.

Su Wan, who had no idea that Artest had used his friendship with him to coax a top-paying job from Thomas, received a call from Artest the next morning: "Su, I've ordered a Lamborghini for you. Don't forget to sign for it when the time comes!"
