Don't talk trash to him.

Chapter 95 still depends on "mouth cannon"!

Although it has been just over a year since the last time the team won the "Player of the Month Award", the "window period" is not long, but after experiencing the "Palace of Auburn Hills Incident", it is of great significance for Indiana that a player on the team won this award again.

This means the Pacers are back on track.

If a team has a player who is named "Player of the Month", it also means that the team has a good record this month. This is an invisible condition for winning the "Player of the Month Award".

——So you will never see that high school student’s name on the candidate list for this award.

As soon as Su Wan received the "Best of the Month" trophy, he took a photo and uploaded it to his Facebook, then did his usual "milking James" and ended a wonderful day.

It's just that he slept, and LeBron James couldn't sleep.

His life has been unhappy recently, especially after Su Wan signed a contract with Nike, he lost his greatest support. Now with Su Wan's "verbal attack", he is almost being beaten unilaterally.

If he had known earlier, he should have agreed to the request of the Chinese newcomer and agreed to switch to the third position and give up the first position.

In that case, he wouldn't have become an enemy of Su Wan, and he wouldn't be as miserable as he is now...

No, that's not right!

I am the "chosen one", how can I have such negative thoughts?
LeBron suddenly woke up and realized that the problem was with the song that was playing...

This is what happens when you listen to "NetEase Cloud" (a reference to the American music software) too much.

LeBron turned off the music, walked back to the living room, and looked around at everything: the expensive bar, the specially customized tables, chairs, and sofas, as well as various brands of home appliances. There was no doubt that this was a luxury house...

Only "King" himself knows how difficult it has been to go from the slums to everything he has today.

He doesn't want to go back to the past, nor does he want to lose his current status and promising future. He can't be crushed by Su Wan like this, he has to prove himself!

from……

Lead the Cavaliers into the playoffs!
Yes, let's improve the team's performance first, then he won't have so many opportunities to attack me. ——Looking through the words that Su Wan ridiculed him, most of them said that he only knew how to inflate the statistics, but the team's record was terrible.

As long as the Cavaliers can make it to the playoffs, that guy can be shut up!
Having found a way out, LeBron was no longer so impatient. When he finished thinking, he felt sleepy and could hardly open his eyes. ——The brain stem of black people is like this. If you think for too long, it will easily crash.

LeBron slept particularly soundly this time. He hadn't slept so peacefully in a long time.

The next morning, he pushed open the door of the locker room with high morale and shouted inside: "Brothers, let's work hard together and make it to the playoffs!"

The Cavaliers looked at each other.

They still remember the look on LeBron's face yesterday when he heard that Suwan won the "Player of the Month Award". If he didn't say it was like he had eaten shit, then it was almost like he was constipated. Why did he suddenly look like he had been injected with chicken blood and was full of fighting spirit today?

But since the boss had spoken, they naturally had to respond. Varejao was the most active, shouting with LeBron: "Make it to the playoffs, make it to the playoffs!"

However, he probably forgot that he only averaged about 15 minutes of playing time per game, and whether the Cavaliers could make the playoffs had little to do with his fighting spirit.

LeBron found his temporary goal in life and turned his attention back to the Pacers.

Their first game in March is against the Washington Wizards, a potential playoff opponent currently ranked below them.

This game was also called the "Agent War" by the media.

"Agent No. 0" VS "Agent No. 99".

What's more coincidental is that both of them have bad tempers.

Of course, if Su Wan really had to say it, Arenas still had a more irritable temper. No, pulling out a gun with his teammates in the locker room should be considered a brainless move. Although Su Wan had a bad temper, he would definitely not do such a stupid thing.

But before he drew his gun, or more precisely, before he was seriously injured and was ruled out for the season, Arenas was still very focused on the court, and the entire Washington also regarded him as an absolute "city hero." It was his arrival that allowed Washington to quickly recover from the two years of Michael Jordan's misfortune. This season, the Wizards have been ranked in the top 8 in the Eastern Conference for a long time. If they maintain their current state, the Wizards will achieve their first playoff trip since the 21st century.

For this reason, the Washington media published a public article before the game: "There is only one agent in the league, and that is Washington's Gilbert Arenas. Tonight Gilbert will let everyone see that the gap between him and the Chinese rookie is even greater than the distance between the numbers of the two people!"

Artest saw the report from the Washington media and couldn't help asking, "Su, did you provoke something? Why can a nickname cause controversy?"

His nickname is "The Beast", but in fact there are many "beasts" in this league. His clashes with other "beasts" did not attract such blatant provocations from the media.

Su Wan said: "When a dog starts barking, it means you have invaded its territory and made it feel threatened!"

"...I think I know the answer." Artest was no longer surprised. Looking at Su Wan's mouth, if he was not Su Wan's teammate, he would probably want to punch him.

"What?" Su Wan hadn't reacted yet. He was surprised that Artest had figured out something first, but he hadn't yet understood it.

"nothing……"

"Then continue!"

Su Wan didn't hesitate, and the two of them threw themselves back into the passionate and tense "bullfighting".

"Why do I feel that you are now better at grasping the timing of a breakthrough?"

After a round of bullfighting, Artest ran to get a bottle of water for the exhausted Suwan and expressed his doubts. He thought it was his illusion, or maybe his condition had declined because he had not played for a long time.

Su Wan took a gulp of water, wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth, and said without any modesty: "This is normal, Ron, I told you, this is how it is for a genius like me! As someone who has experienced all this up close, you should feel honored! Because you will never see such a genius again!"

Artest discovered a long time ago that the more tired Su Wan was, the more he would talk nonsense. This discovery was proven again at this moment. He was too lazy to pay attention to Su Wan:

"...You should go back and rest. Tomorrow is going to be a tough battle. Gilbert is not easy to deal with!"

In his only 7 games this season, one of them was against Arenas. At that time, he felt that Arenas had improved compared to last season and had shown the potential of a top guard. At this stage of the season, it turned out that his feeling was not wrong: Arenas averaged 25.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.7 steals per game this season, which was a significant improvement compared to last season's average of 19.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5 assists and 1.8 steals per game.

Many media are saying that Arenas should win the "Most Improved Player Award" again.

Su Wan didn't care: "That's Tinsley's problem, I just need to pay attention to Larry Hughes!"

Arenas is the number one player for the Wizards, and Larry Hughes is the number two player for the Wizards.

Artest said: "Larry is not easy to deal with either. He averaged more than 20 points per game this season, right?"

Su Wan corrected: "It's 22 points, 6.3 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 2.9 steals per game!"

Suwan had some vague impressions of Larry Hughes. He just remembered that this guy had been selected into the "Best Defensive Team", won the "Steals King", signed a big contract with the Cavaliers at the peak of his career, and then... nothing happened!
Seeing his statistics, Su Wan knew that this was the Larry Hughes in his peak period that he had a vague impression of.

The scouting report says that his contract expires this year, so this summer, he should leave the Wizards and go to the Cavaliers to team up with LeBron, right?
Such data...

Why do LeBron's fans still say that "Young James" in the 1.0 era had no helpers?

Su Wan felt strange and very un-"Sister Li".

When Artest saw Suwan state Larry Hughes' statistics so accurately, he knew that Suwan must have carefully studied the Wizards' backcourt information.

That's right. Although Su Wan always looks nonchalant in front of them, he is very competitive behind the scenes. If he were in school, he would be the hated "fake academic genius" who would say "what's there to learn" but actually hide in the quilt in the middle of the night and secretly memorize English words with a flashlight.

Coincidentally, Su Wan also always likes to say that he is a "genius". Damn, it's even more like it!
Artest wants to release a diss song:
Su Wan, Su Wan, I want to diss you!
In addition to Arenas and Larry Hughes, the Wizards also have masters:
Vince Carter's brother-in-law, Antawn Jamison, also graduated from the prestigious North Carolina School.

As the most low-key "2-point man" in the NBA, Jamison is the only player who has scored 19.6 points in his career but has no news of entering the Hall of Fame. Just like this season, he averaged points per game for the Wizards, but when the media talked about the Wizards, the first reaction was still the "backcourt duo."

Even Rick Carlisle automatically skipped Jamison when arranging targeted tactics.

The reason is very simple. Although he once scored 50 points against the Lakers and Kobe, and then scored 50 points again "back to back", he is a player who needs absolute possession of the ball and "unlimited firing rights" to unleash fierce firepower.

This can be seen from the trajectory of his career. In his rookie season, he was not valued and averaged only 9.6 points per game. In his second season, his shooting rights doubled and his score increased by nearly 2 points.

He then left the Warriors and joined the Mavericks, becoming the "best sixth man." Without the ball, he averaged only 14.4 points per game, the second lowest point average in his career.

After coming to the Wizards, as he regained the ball, his average stats rose back to 19.6 points.

What’s interesting is that no matter whether it was the Warriors or the Wizards, the person who took away his “unlimited firing rights” was Arenas.

What’s more interesting is that Jamison, like Larry Hughes, completely ended his NBA career after joining the Cavaliers.

After reading Jamison's story, Suwan once again "sounded the alarm bell":
You really can't be polite in the NBA. If you are polite to others, you will lose your status in the team.

There is no doubt about Jamison's scoring ability, but when others compete with him for the ball, he will willingly give up his position.

Otherwise, how could he become a brother-in-law with Vince Carter?

Vince Carter, who left the Raptors, has the same attitude towards his status in the team as Jamison.

So neither of them achieved very brilliant results in their careers.

Anyway, it is far from the upper limit of what the outside world expects their talents to reach.

Without "unlimited firing rights", Jamison can only adjust his scoring method according to the playing styles of Arenas and Larry Hughes in each game. This is why his average shooting percentage this season is only 43.7%, 10% lower than last season.

Even he himself doesn't know his position every night, how can Rick Carlisle arrange defense against him?

What the Wizards really need to pay attention to is the "backcourt duo".

Many of the tactics formulated by head coach Eddie Jordan are initiated by these two people.

Carlisle knew very well that Tinsley's defensive ability would not be able to limit Arenas. He looked at Suwan. If Tinsley was allowed to deal with Larry Hughes and Stephen Jackson helped with the defense, the effect would be much better.

Su Wan did not back down: "I'll try my best!"

Artest thought to himself, this guy was talking bullshit yesterday. But he was not surprised, Su Wan's words were deceitful.
Which of his words were sincere would only be known at the last moment.

But he never disappoints!
Such a man is very mysterious~
Artest felt that if he were a woman, he would be unable to resist and would actively pursue Su Wan.

Suwan didn't know that Artest was having dangerous thoughts in his mind. He looked at Arenas' scouting report again and felt that he was abnormal:
An excellent first step, an unstoppable breakthrough opportunity, a smooth pull-up jump shot, and a sudden three-pointer...

Isn’t this description the “hexagonal warrior” on the scoring end?

It is not without reason that some experts later called Arenas "an enhanced version of Lillard".

Just looking at this scouting report, one can feel the threat.

In fact, from 05 to 07, when Kobe Bryant's individualism reached its absolute peak, his biggest rival was not Allen Iverson, nor Tracy McGrady, nor Vince Carter, Ray Allen, or Hamilton.

His biggest rival is Gilbert Arenas. With the same extreme personal offensive firepower, the "General's" absolute peak period overlapped with Kobe.

It would be strange if a man who could score 60 points against Kobe was not strong.

Suwan read the entire scout report and finally found a breakthrough, which was Arenas's extremely easy to "red and warm" personality. As long as he gets excited, he will enter the "solo" mode of "only the basket in his eyes, not his teammates" like Kobe. In other words:
You still have to rely on "mouth cannon"!
