With a commanding 3-1 lead, the New York Knicks were just one game away from advancing to the Eastern Conference Finals.
ESPN posted an article saying, "Joakim Noah's trash talk has destroyed the Bulls' entire season's effort."
TNT echoed, "Joakim Noah, oh Joakim Noah, why did you have to provoke Su Wan?"
Of course, the media comparison was even more obvious with Derek Rose.
For the most part in this game, he played equally to Su Wan, and even led New York for the majority of the time. But in the final moments of decision, Su Wan completely outplayed him on both sides of the ball.
Barkley was besieged by the New York media.
Since when did a regular season MVP become consolation for the losers?
Since when did not needing the regular season MVP trophy to prove oneself become an excuse for not getting one?
You're kidding me...
Su Wan indeed had three regular season MVP trophies.
But he...
Had never won this award as a member of the New York Knicks!
