Don't talk trash to him.

Chapter 79: If a player like Su was in the 90s, he would be beaten to tears

However, there are exceptions to this unanimous applause. For example, Kobe, who was also subjected to Bruce Bowen's "groin grabbing", crotch kicking, and foot tripping" and other "despicable" behaviors, believes that "Bruce Bowen's crimes have been magnified. His actions should not rise to such a level."

He also expressed his appreciation for Bruce Bowen's positive attitude when defending him.

Popovich flipped through the newspaper and finally saw Kobe, his "friendly soldier". He was so happy that he reciprocated and praised Kobe highly: "Kobe is the player with the strongest fighting spirit I have ever seen. There were many such players in the 90s, but not many now!"

There was no need for Suwan to fight back. The Indiana media responded on his behalf: "Greg hopes that other teams in the league will turn a blind eye to Bruce Bowen's hurtful behavior, so that they can always win by hurting other teams' main players. This is how San Antonio won two championships. They can't win a game without hurting their opponents."

San Antonio immediately responded: "At least no matter how excessive Bruce Bowen was, he only hurt the players, he did not attack the audience!"

The Indiana media became more and more courageous: "The Spurs still need to play a game at the Pacers' home court. If the Indiana people do anything rude to the Spurs players on the scene, I think you can definitely forgive them unconditionally!"

This sentence became the decisive blow, and the San Antonio media dared not respond.

If they really agreed, who knows what the Spurs players would experience that day.

After a heated exchange of words between the media on both sides, Suwan and the team returned to Indiana. They will have a day of rest before heading to Dallas to challenge the Mavericks.

On the way back, Su Wan also saw LeBron's response to this matter.

"Bruce did something that was not related to basketball, and he should bear any consequences."

He was also on the side that applauded.

The reason is also very simple:
He was also one of the victims of Bruce Bowen's defense.

Although it did not cause any substantial damage or serious consequences, he had an extremely difficult time whenever he met Bowen. In the 07 Finals, Popovich used Bruce Bowen to lead the defense, which directly allowed LeBron to shoot 35.6%.

In 09, Bowen announced his retirement. He even wrote a special message saying: "The entire league will breathe a sigh of relief."

But it turns out that only LeBron James breathed a sigh of relief, while others did not, such as Danny Granger, Gordon Hayward, Stewart, Wiggins, Bridges, Jaylen Brown, Stephen Curry, Anthony Davis... This list can probably make up the 108 NBA players.

After arriving home, Suwan also learned about Bruce Bowen's injury report from Bill Duffy:
He suffered a broken nose, small cracks in multiple bones, severe contusion of the neck, and a mild concussion. It is expected to take three weeks to a month to fully recover.

Lighter!

This was Su Wan's first reaction after hearing what Bill Duffy said.

When he saw Bruce Bowen lying on the ground unable to move, he thought he would have to lie down for at least two or three months.

NBA players have great physical fitness!
Before hanging up the phone, Bill Duffy asked Suwan: "Man, did you see what Kobe said?"

"What?" Su Wan had just got off the plane, and there were so many comments about this matter that he really didn't know what Kobe said.

Bill relayed Kobe's views in front of the media.

Su Wan was not surprised either.

This is what "Black Mamba" is like.

It's not that he's not smart.

But he really is not in the right brain.

He likes to play big-scale offense and defense with his opponents. The more fierce and fierce the defense is, the more excited he gets. In the 09 offensive and defensive battle between him and Anthony, if the league's whistle was followed in 15, neither of them could stay on the court for a quarter and both had to leave with 6 fouls.

Plus...Kobe himself is a pretty ruthless person.

Later in the 09 regular season against the Cavaliers, in order to grab the ball, he played a Bruce Bowen-style flying kick, which scared Mo Williams so much that he was still thinking about that moment after the game was over. He thought he was going to meet his grandmother.

Another point is that Kobe entered the league in 96. The atmosphere of the league at that time could be seen from Rodman and Karl Malone, who directly wrestled on the court. Naturally, he would think that Bruce Bowen was just a player who was influenced by the atmosphere of the 90s.

What's this?

Anyway...

He was also heavy-handed!
The next day, all members of the Indiana Pacers arrived in Dallas. During the pre-game interview, the reporter unsurprisingly mentioned Kobe's remarks in front of Suwan.

Su Wan was not afraid at all: "When Kobe is kicked into the ICU by Bruce Bowen one day and no one speaks for him, he will know how outrageous his remarks are!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the reporters surrounding Su Wan all laughed.

On January 1, the Pacers will face the Lakers for the first time this season. Suwan's remarks are destined to make this game full of gimmicks.

In fact, to be honest, because of the previous trade messages, there are also many things to watch between Suwan and the Mavericks.

Especially since Mark Cuban wanted to get Suwan before, he even included Devin Harris, the fifth overall pick in the 04 first round, in the trade.

As early as two days before this game, when reporters asked Devin Harris about his opinion on this game, he said frankly that he would prove his ability in this game.

It's just that Suwan suddenly "acted for the heavens" in San Antonio, causing the outside world to focus on Suwan's off-court war of words. No one cares about the PK between Suwan and Devin Harris.

Or maybe only Devin Harris cares.

Suwan also didn't care about Harris' remarks.

Are you kidding? He is now the player with the highest voting share in the Eastern Conference All-Star starting guard lineup. If he wants to be compared, he should be compared with the new generation of stars in the league, such as the "03 generation". Devin Harris, a rookie in the same class who got a high draft pick based on his potential, should not try to compare with him.

This was also proved by several matchups between the two players during the game. Suwan's confrontation made it very uncomfortable for Devin Harris to play when he was attacking with the ball.

Harris took a total of three shots against Suwan, all of which were missed.

In contrast, Suwan scored 22 points in this game, and he made every shot he could against Devin Harris' defense.

Barkley commented on the game and said that the gap between Devin Harris and Suwan was greater than the distance between BJ and Dallas.

But in this game, the Mavericks, playing at home, took advantage of the situation and won 115 to 108.

Dirk Nowitzki used a turnaround jump shot to make O'Neal lose his temper.

The Pacers' six-game winning streak was ended.

However, reporters had no questions about the game after the game.

because……

Kobe's latest response is here:
"If a player like Su was in the 90s, he would be beaten to tears!"

It will be on the shelves at midnight on August 8st. There will be 1 updates first, and then at 5 noon, another 12 updates will be released, a total of 5 updates. I hope you will support me, brothers.
