"He's the hottest favorite for the Best Defensive Player Award this season," Erin reminded Su Wan.
"So, I guess we all know why he shoved Ron!"
Su Wan's reply made Erin's eyes sparkle as if she had heard Ben Wallace's impotent rage.
True enough...
"Don't let that rookie get cocky, this is just the first game of the series. Over the long seven games, he'll stop laughing."
All you can say is Su Wan had really hit the mark.
Last season's Best Defensive Player Award was taken by Ron Artest, something Ben Wallace still deeply resented. Now this guy claims he can win this year's award because Artest was suspended.
That claim was hard for him to swallow.
But this appearance only made him look even more impotent and enraged.
Moreover, Ben Wallace didn't manage to make a comeback in the second game of the series either.
Two days later, the second game of the series continued at Auburn Palace and the Pistons lost again by 10 points, 87 to 97.
