Big Bird Bird returned to Indiana with Jordan’s ’secret training manual’.
At that mont, Su Xi was also swept up in another piece of gossip.
After being discharged from the hospital, Scarlett Johansson showed Little Sheep Su Xi’s Rookie of the Year trophy to the dia. She lectured the reporters, "In the world of basketball, the All-Star Weekend is just for show. The MVP trophy has no real use."
"There’s only one trophy that is truly priceless and exceptionally aningful: the Rookie of the Year award."
"Because you can only win it once in your lifeti."
"It’s unique. Once you miss it, you can never get it again."
At this point, Scarlett Johansson, beaming, showed off the Rookie of the Year trophy that Little Sheep Su Xi had given her.
Hm?
The reporters’ eyes instantly lit up.
’No wonder she’d built it up so much.’
Then, everyone started asking about Scarlett and Su Xi’s relationship status. She said, "It’s very sweet, like the silky-smooth combination of white chocolate and cream—rich, fragrant... and exquisitely blended."
"So, do you have any plans to take things further recently?"
"Jack is still in the middle of a busy season, but we’re discussing a trip around the world. We plan to go to China. I’ve always been drawn to the mysterious East. It’s my spiritual ho."
Scarlett chatted away in front of the reporters, talking at length about the influence of Eastern philosophy on her and the insights she’d gained from Eastern culture.
How should one put it? Her understanding was as superficial as the glossed-over introductions in Hollywood movies—very impressionistic.
You couldn’t expect Scarlett to have genuinely put in the hard work on the subject. She was only doing this in the hopes that Jack would put in so hard work on her.
Su Xi hadn’t had any free ti recently. Even though Scarlett was staying in Indiana, he was constantly playing gas and training to improve his assisting ability.
The reason he gave the trophy to Scarlett was because she had asked for it, thinking it was rather unique.
If Scarlett hadn’t asked for it, he probably would have tossed the trophy into so dark storage room long ago.
To Su Xi, trophies weren’t that important.
But unexpectedly, it played such a crucial role in Scarlett’s hands.
"This is the perfect coback against Jessica. The Rookie of the Year trophy is undoubtedly more valuable than Jessica’s All-Star MVP trophy. Just as Scarlett said, it’s an honor a player can only win once in their lifeti."
Su Xi saw the overwhelming dia coverage on TV.
Those entertainnt industry ’comntators’ were pompously giving professional explanations on the differences between the two trophies.
They looked far more professional than the comntators on sports channels.
At least they worked hard to research the topic and were quite objective.
...
Su Xi wasn’t affected by the ’Rookie of the Year incident’, even though it was becoming the number one gossip story in North Arican entertainnt. This was because bored entertainnt fans in the United States had split into two "shipping" factions, each with a clearly defined stance.
Whenever there was a new developnt in Jessica and Su Xi’s relationship, the SJ Faction, who supported Su Xi and Jessica, would rejoice and flaunt their victory.
When there was a new developnt in Su Xi and Scarlett’s relationship, the SS Faction, who supported Su Xi and Scarlett, would also celebrate loudly and act smug.
The two sides constantly attacked and antagonized each other.
It even caused divisions in so families... A famous talk show host joked on his show: "Sotis I don’t even know who to support. My little sister is a die-hard SS Faction mber, while my older sister is in the SJ Faction. I’m constantly wavering between them. Sotis I feel like I’m the one dating Scarlett and Jessica. Hey, LeBron, can you give your Rookie of the Year trophy?"
Conan loves to joke around.
The bit was actually pretty funny.
However, he was attacked by both the SS Faction and the SJ Faction. They criticized Conan for being undignified and for dragging LeBron into it for no reason.
"Don’t you know LeBron Jas was propped up by the league, that his Rookie of the Year award was basically handed to him? LeBron only got that award because he sent a fruit basket to David Stern. What right does he have to be compared to Jack?"
"Your stupid head should go deal with the donkey that kissed Kenny Smith. What tier of a player is LeBron? On what grounds can he be compared to Little Sheep Su Xi?"
"Jack beats Jas in every single aspect: stats, team record, fa, shoe sales, and number of endorsents. What does Jas have to share with him? A guy who can’t even make the All-Star Ga, a guy who doesn’t even co close to an All-NBA Team or an All-Defensive Team, being put on the sa level as Jack? Ridiculous..."
"Even a dog wouldn’t want LeBron Jas’s trophy..."
"..."
Stans are a crazy bunch.
It was hard to believe that one joke from Conan had temporarily united the two factions, getting them to focus their attacks on Conan and Jas.
Jas had been just sitting back and watching the drama unfold. He was even thinking about taking his own Rookie of the Year trophy for a spin around Hollywood and had discussed with his team whether they should market it to generate so offseason buzz.
Who knew that before he could even start building hype, he’d find himself in the hot seat.
What was even more unexpected was that these stans were well-reasoned and data-backed; they weren’t just spouting nonsense. They listed all sorts of stats: true shooting percentage, advanced efficiency ratings, head-to-head stats, number of triple-doubles, number of quadruple-doubles, number of Rookie of the Week awards, number of Rookie of the Month awards, All-NBA Teams, All-Defensive Teams, team record, individual stats...
