Hearing Bill Duffy say this, Su Wan first was stunned, but then felt it made perfect sense.
Yao, or shall we say "Yao's team," had originally aimed for that very position.
As the most successful NBA player from Huaxia, he had indeed smoothly secured that spot.
But now, Su Wan's meteoric rise was simply too dazzling.
It wasn't just Su Wan boasting—if he had been Yao Ming, he would have also felt the pressure from such a junior.
In fact, there was another reason Su Wan was unaware of; he hadn't paid attention to domestic public opinion in recent days.
When the domestic fans learned that the NBA had asked Su Wan for a drug test after the finals, a good number of them were furious.
And when they found out that the League had quickly caved in and fired the executive general manager Tatum, and the Mavericks' owner who had pressured the League to drug test Su Wan also appeared in the media to apologize, they felt a surge of satisfaction.
What's called "upholding national pride"!
