Larry Brown had an interview before the game, and when a reporter mentioned Su Wan being selected as "Second Team All-League," he said, "Kobe is more deserving of being on that list, but that's the league for you, always in need of fresh blood."
Su Wan saw Larry Brown being interviewed and knew this guy must be belittling him, something Brown had taken a liking to lately. He wasn't angry, though, especially since he had been engaging in the same kind of talk recently. Among the league's 30 head coaches, Larry Brown had successfully clinched the 31st spot in his personal ranking.
If he had heard Larry Brown's interview, he would surely have smiled, "It's not just the league that needs fresh blood, basketball tactics are crying out for it too. Quit playing around with your ancient constricting strategies. They're like a hundred-year-old pickled vegetable—stinky and sour!"
