Don't talk trash to him.

Chapter 90 I wish I had a “black fan” system.

The next morning, as expected, the game once again became the focus of attention across the United States.

Barkley was disappointed with LeBron James's move: "I never thought he would do such a move on the court. Don't tell me he didn't mean to do it. He's not a kid anymore. Even if more and more media call him a high school student, he should know what will happen to O'Neal in the air if he pushes him like this. Even in the 90s, this was a move that the referee didn't allow."

The New York Times ridiculed LeBron James's exit: "The chosen one who claimed that he would not easily retire due to injury chose to retire for Cleveland and the entire team. He is so great!"

It's no wonder that the New York Times is so mean. LeBron James's promise to the media is still fresh in our minds. But when something like this really happened, he did the exact opposite of what he said.

If the New York media didn't make some insults, it wouldn't be the New York media.

In addition to these media, there are many other media reporting on this game from other aspects:

"Faced with Suwan's provocation, LeBron got scared. At this moment, Suwan is more like King than LeBron!"

"Don't dare to shoot! With the same shot, Su Wan made the shot calmly, but LeBron didn't dare to shoot!"

"LeBron James is acting like a high school student when he's arguing with Pacers fans!"

……

The content is really rich!
It’s no wonder that these media can find so many angles. There are simply too many flaws in LeBron James’ game.

Especially since they had just watched Kobe and Suwan go head to head on the court, they were looking forward to a similar showdown between LeBron and Suwan.

result……

LeBron's performance is really hard to satisfy the media.

Su Wan also saw these reports the next day. He instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it, so he called Bill Duffy.

"I did it!"

Bill Duffy readily admitted it.

He did this for a reason: "LeBron's team is contacting the media. They are preparing to create a big wave of public opinion to divert the current attention from LeBron. From what I know, the target of their diversion should be us. But I don't know where they will start. So I can only take the first step and expand the public opinion that is unfavorable to LeBron as much as possible."

This is a rather helpless solution, since Nike is standing behind LeBron.
In terms of media resources, Bill Duffy naturally cannot compete with such a giant.

After Su Wan heard what he said, he realized what was wrong... Usually at this time, LeBron's team would quickly contact the media to clear his name, but this time, they unusually did not come out and issue a notice at the first time.

I think LeBron's performance last night made the Nike media feel pressured.

Ordinary floor washing methods certainly cannot eliminate the impact so quickly.

In this case, diverting attention becomes the best solution.

Su Wan also thought Bill Duffy's guess made sense.

After all, he is now LeBron's biggest rival.

The purpose of whitewashing is nothing more than to prove that LeBron is not wrong. If it is impossible to prove that he is not wrong, then go and prove that his opponent is the one with the problem.

This is very simple logic of whitewashing.

Soon, Su Wan saw the power of Nike's media and the direction of their whitewashing:

"Another dispute, a review of the three disputes that the Chinese newcomers have had in the past half month!"

"One problem after another, can a newcomer who loves to stir up trouble really bring a future to Indiana?"

"From the 'Palace of Auburn Hills' to last night's conflict between Suwan and LeBron, why have the Pacers been plagued by conflicts this season?"

……

I have to say, it’s pretty cruel.

The entire Pacers team was directly labeled as a "troublemaker", so even if LeBron did something dirty, he could be forgiven.

In fact, the way LeBron's fans will excuse LeBron in the future will be similar. The most typical example is the 16 Finals. Once someone said that LeBron completed the "comeback" with the help of the referee, they would say that if it weren't for the referee's care, the Thunder should have entered the Finals that year.

Since you can use the referee to hack the Thunder, then we can use the referee to hack your Warriors.

The main purpose is to seize the moral high ground, "enforce justice on behalf of heaven", and turn "black" into "white".

After Bill Duffy saw the press releases, he called Su Wan about two hours later to discuss countermeasures with him.

Normally, it would be his agent who should come up with a solution at this time. But Bill Duffy had seen how Suwan manipulated public opinion, so he followed Suwan's lead. Bill Duffy did whatever Suwan said.

Su Wan is on his way to the gym at this moment. No matter how chaotic the situation is outside, he still has to train. No matter what the public opinion is like, as long as he performs well on the court, everything will be calm.

Of course, Suwan will definitely not allow LeBron's team to throw dirty water on him. He just wants to use his performance on the court to shut these people up.

This is not his character.

And he knows very well how important public opinion is...

Just look at LeBron. He only has four championships and no obvious advantages over other people on the "Mount Rushmore" in other hard honors. How can he skip "Magic" Johnson and "Big Bird" and directly compete with Michael Jordan?

To put it bluntly, the media behind him has been building up momentum for him.

Performance on the field can only shut up the outside world, but the labels cannot be removed.

He doesn't want to be labeled a troublemaker. Not only him, but the entire Indiana also doesn't want to be labeled a troublemaker.

As the car passed by the fan plaza, Su Wan saw the group of "fanatical fans" that Artest mentioned.

Watching their enthusiastic cheering activities at the Fan Plaza, Su Wan suddenly had an idea. He called the public relations staff and asked them to bring a loudspeaker, and asked them to call all the media waiting at the Conseco Fieldhouse to the Fan Plaza.

Everything was ready, and Su Wan walked to the fan plaza with a loudspeaker. This was his second time to have such close contact with Pacers fans in private. The difference from the first time was that he no longer needed bodyguards around him.

As soon as the fanatical Indians saw him, they gathered around him, probably hundreds of people.

Su Wan clapped the loudspeaker in his hand. After confirming that there was a sound, he put the loudspeaker to his mouth: "Has everyone seen the latest news?"

"I see, uncle, don't worry, we won't believe what those bitches say. We believe you can bring success to Indiana!" A fat white uncle shouted at Su Wan, and his words caused a lot of response.

“Thank you for your trust!”

But this is not what Su Wan wanted to express.

Glancing at the increasing number of media around him, he said, "What I want to say is..."

"Starting today, I will declare war on these media that slander us!"

Su Wan's words not only made the media people around him look surprised, but also made the Indiana people in front of him look surprised.

"In the game against the Pistons, it was Ben Wallace who started it, and it was the Pistons fans who threw the drinks first!" "When Bruce Bowen was sent to the hospital, he was the first to do something to me that shouldn't happen on a basketball court."

"As for the war of words with Kobe, everyone should know how ridiculous Kobe's views were at the time!"

"Not to mention yesterday, that high school student didn't even care whether Jermaine could walk off the court alive!"

"We never took the initiative to cause trouble, we just didn't want to be bullied, so we fought back!"

"But now, these media have labeled us troublemakers!"

"I would like to ask, when did legitimate defense become a cause of trouble?"

"Do we in Indiana deserve to be bullied? Should we not fight back when we are beaten or scolded?"

"I'm sorry, I can't do it. Not only can I not do it, but the whole of Indiana will not live in such a cowardly way. We will keep fighting until no one dares to mess with Indiana people anymore!"

"I believe this is also the common attitude of all Indiana people!"

"We will never compromise!"

"Indiana, never be a slave!"

……

As Suwan shouted out the Indiana modified version of the slogan "Orcs will never be slaves", which was supposed to appear nine years later, hundreds of Pacers fans in the fan plaza became excited.

Yup!

Why do so many people always cause trouble for us?
Why do we have to invite such criticism when we fight?

If they attack first, it’s their life, but if we fight back, it’s not our life anymore?

Why should we in Indiana be bullied by them and bear such a bad reputation!
Nothing more to say, declare war!
They followed Su Wan and shouted slogans:
"Indiana, never be a slave!"

"Indiana, never be a slave!"

"Indiana, never be a slave!"

A senior media person couldn't help but curse: "Are you sure the president isn't trying to win votes here?"

Su Wan is so talkative!

If this guy stays in Indiana for another two years, he's really afraid that he'll wake up tomorrow morning and see the news that Indiana has separated from the United States...

The next day, LeBron's team was also confused.

Because the headlines across the U.S. are all the same:

"Indiana, never be a slave!"

They held back for so long and finally came up with this big move, which ended up making Suwan successful and earning him more fans in Indiana.

Suwan also responded to LeBron's comments asking for an apology: "This is the thinking of a high school student. He thought that everything would be over if he apologized. The person who fell heavily to the ground was not him, but Jermaine. His light-hearted "I'm sorry" is not a panacea. If he can't realize where the real problem is, I don't mind letting him fall like this next time. Only by truly experiencing that moment will this guy know how wrong he is!"

Since the recent attention has been focused on Suwan, his words have spread widely, and the "LeBron's dirty tricks" incident that LeBron's team wanted to cover up has been exposed again.

Many media outlets attacked it.

In order to prevent his media impression from getting worse, LeBron had no choice but to hold another press conference and sincerely apologize to O'Neal.

The matter was finally settled down slowly.

LeBron felt an indescribable fucked-up feeling and was once again disappointed with the Goodman brothers. He had already decided that he would fire the two brothers once the storm had passed.

On February 2, the league officially announced the reserve All-Star lineup for the 2 All-Star Game.

LeBron James, who failed to be selected as a starter by more than 100,000 votes, eventually made the bench list.

However, this honor lacks a bit of specialness.

Because in addition to him, Dwyane Wade was also selected as a substitute for the "03 generation".

He did not fall behind his classmates.

and……

Su Wan mocked him again through Facebook:

"Why can a guy who can't even make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference be on the All-Star bench? I feel unbalanced for Jason Kidd!"

"Since good statistics can make the All-Stars, why don't I see Michael Redd's name? Is a No. 44 player who averages over 23.4% shooting and 7.2 points per game really not as good as a high school student who averages 3.2 assists but turnovers per game?"

"He played 42.4 minutes per game, even in garbage time, to get such data. Is he really more qualified to be an All-Star than Michael Redd? He doesn't even dare to shoot in front of me!"

Not one, not two, not three...

Su Wan's sarcasm was revealing, as if he was peeling off LeBron James' clothes layer by layer, and he brought out a lot of data that left him nowhere to hide.

Some of them have even sparked heated discussions in the media.

For example, LeBron continues to stay on the court to improve his stats during "garbage time".

Barkley, who likes to stir up trouble, counted the relevant data overnight and confirmed that LeBron James did stay on the court during the "garbage time" to "brush up his stats."

"This may be the reason why LeBron's statistics are so good, but the Cavaliers are still ranked 11th in the East."

Indiana media quickly followed up with related reports.

Just this wave of operations made Suwan the most unpopular person in Cleveland.

He has left another dark patch on America's map.

When Su Wan saw the relevant news, he sighed:

I wish I had a "black fan" system.

Before the All-Star Weekend, he has become the most unpopular person in San Antonio, Detroit and Cleveland. If this continues, it is not impossible that the other 25 cities in the NBA will become black.

Oh, by the way, if it weren't for that finger-snapping, four cities would have listed him as the most unpopular person by now.
