A day later, the Pacers hosted the second game of the new season; their opponent was the Miami Heat.
This would have been a major matchup last season, but this year, although David Stern had also granted it "nationwide broadcast" status, the hype was all about Su Wan's matchup against Wade. All the media knew that until Pat Riley got rid of Big Z, the Heat would hardly be a competitive team.
As expected, the Pacers won easily with a score of 115 to 91, dominating the Heat.

Su Wan also put up 28 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists.
For the current Su Wan, these numbers were just a consistent performance.
