Popovich was on the plane to New York, scanning his team of Spurs players to find someone willing to go through hell and high water and eager to stand out.
Su Wan and others also returned to New York the same evening.
As soon as they walked out of Kennedy Airport, they saw excited New Yorkers had already surrounded the entire airport, leaving no room for water to leak through.
With a 2-0 lead and the next two home games in New York, under the current circumstances, they were eagerly anticipating that the team could lift the Championship Trophy on their home court.
"Will we sweep the Spurs, Su God?" hollered a New Yorker at Su Wan, who had very consciously shifted his form of address for Su Wan.
Su Wan glanced at him, "I'll do my best!"
Just a short sentence, and the crowd went wild with excitement.
However, for Su Wan, there was something as important as winning the championship that he needed to do in this round of the finals.
