Su Wan was decidedly unhappy after losing the game.
But it wasn't because of the referee's decisions.
Possibly because he was a transcender, the disparity in free throws of 23 to 10 didn't seem outrageous to him; he'd seen greater disparities in free throws before.
Those who understand, understand!
And he didn't think that the free throw count was the main reason the Pacers didn't win the game tonight.
Given the Pacers' ability to restrict the Lakers, they could have taken the game even with such a disparity in free throws.
He had also seen similar games where the team that was stylistically restrained managed to "sweep" or achieve a "gentleman's sweep" through a strategy of "turning up the heat at the end."
Moreover, Su Wan's fifth season in the league was almost over.
He had also experienced times when the Pacers overwhelmed their opponents in the number of free throws.
He hadn't said anything then, and there was no need to get upset now.
