The large score of the bullfight was set at 3-0.
Just as Su Wan had said, Michael Jordan couldn’t stand up. He was clutching his rib, waiting for the doctor to arrive.
Nike headquarters even has its own hospital.
It’s pretty much like a small town.
The doctor who hurried over only brought a temporary wheelchair, but getting the huge Jordan from the ground to the wheelchair posed a challenge... Su Wan watched from the side, and finally approached and gave him a "princess carry," placing Jordan on the wheelchair.
Jordan looked at Su Wan, baffled.
What was this all about?
Facing his gaze, Su Wan declared, "Respecting the elder is a traditional virtue in my hometown, you’re welcome!"
"Heh!"
Jordan laughed, which pained him due to his injury, causing him to gasp for air.
Such a damn virtue!
So, who was the one who broke my ribs?
It had always been him hitting someone else and then offering a sweetener.
But today, he had his ribs broken by Su Wan, and then he was given a "princess carry" as a reward.
"Fine, wait and see, rookie, I will contact you again. Today’s bullfight will have a conclusion."
Even seated in his wheelchair, Michael Jordan didn’t forget to make threats.
Suddenly, Su Wan felt the urge to push him off the wheelchair again; Jordan making a pained face was somehow cuter.
The doctor took Jordan away, and Su Wan continued communicating with the data collector where Jordan’s break had interrupted, confirming all matters before he and Bill Duffy left the Nike headquarters.
Next, Su Wan would head to Doha in Qatar to join the national basketball team in this year’s Asian Championship.
During the Eastern Conference Finals and the Finals, the zone value he accumulated was added to his Upper Body Strength and Lower Body Strength. Both data potential values reached 84 points. After the Asian Championship, the zone value he collected he planned to primarily enhance his Physical Fitness and Explosive Power aspects.
Then, after the championship, he would focus on intensive training to boost his physical fitness.
His performance at shooting guard during his rookie season was quite decent.
But facing Kobe, Arenas, and Dwayne Wade...
Arenas is slightly less troubling, as he could use his height advantage to compete.
But against Kobe and Wade, he was outplayed in both offense and defense.
Technique was one aspect, but the physical fitness lagging behind those two was also a crucial problem.
After this summer’s improvements, his overall physical fitness rating should reach the Superstar Floor level.
Under "The Zone" mode, a steady Superstar-level physical fitness.
The next morning, the headline that dominated the NBA media was Bogut being selected as the No.1 Pick of the 2005 draft, becoming the second "foreign No.1 Pick" in NBA history.
The first was none other than Yao Ming.
Su Wan actually had the chance to follow this year’s draft yesterday when he got home.
But he didn’t watch.
This year’s First-round pick for the Pacers had already been traded away; watching was moot.
In the eyes of external experts, compared to the 2003 and 2004 drafts, the 2005 draft wasn’t as high-quality.
However, Su Wan knew well that the quality of this draft was pretty good, as it brought forth a batch of strong players.
Like "58 Cannon," Little Fatty, Danny Granger, and David Lee, these All-Stars...
Also, "Fatdon," future "Daddy of Los Angeles" Lou Williams, "Nine-finger Slam Dunk King" Jerald Green, "High Post Gun" Channing Frye, "Browless Hero" Charlie Villanueva, "Little Potato" Nate Robinson, and "Bullet Head" Monta Ellis.
It’s crucial to talk about Danny Granger.
He was supposed to be picked by the Pacers.
But Su Wan had changed the fate of the Pacers, and thus his destiny changed too:
This time, he was picked by the Memphis Grizzlies.
Who knows if moving to the Western Conference, he could evade LeBron James’s "Black Hand."
Then quickly, the heat from Bogut becoming the new "No.1 Pick" was overshadowed by the news of Michael Jordan breaking his ribs.
When Su Wan saw the result, he felt a bit disappointed: "Only two ribs? I guess I need to boost my strength some more!"
He had put his entire strength just to break two ribs of a 42-year-old Jordan.
If it had been Artest from four years ago, who broke three of Jordan’s ribs in one go, he would have probably broken at least five.
The external world was buzzing with speculation, wondering who had touched Jordan’s ribs.
Regardless of how close the media were with Michael Jordan, none managed to glean any information from around him.
But perhaps because of this, the media speculated that Jordan must have suffered a great loss, otherwise he definitely wouldn’t be so tight-lipped.
Interestingly, just as the media speculated to this point, Erin called Su Wan.
"So, it really was you?"
Erin could only guess; she was among the few who knew that Su Wan had gone to the Nike headquarters yesterday. Coupled with the hospital where Jordan was treated being nearby, she made a connection to Su Wan.
But, conjecture aside, she really hadn’t expected that it was indeed Su Wan who had broken Jordan’s ribs.
"Can this news be published?" Erin asked.
Without hesitation, Su Wan responded, "Go ahead."
"Will there be any problems?" Although Erin had only been a journalist for a short time, she had already reviewed the past news where Artest broke Jordan’s ribs, which had caused a huge controversy. Artest had hidden at home for half a month, too scared to go out, as many media outlets were quite agitated.
