However, in this era...
Who exactly is his own template?
On this day, considering that he still had to complete the system-issued task of "That Unextinguished Dream," Qin Yue gave Borko two different answers.
During the interview, Qin Yue unsurprisingly expressed to Borko his desire to become Barkley's successor.
But privately, Qin Yue told Borko, "I don't think there's a template for me in today's NBA.
I've chosen a path that no one has taken before; I'm going to be the most unique in this era of the NBA."
Borko was quite satisfied with the private answer Qin Yue gave himself.
But just as he promised Qin Yue, this answer would not be disclosed in the short term.
"This answer will only display its value when you prove in the NBA that you are the most unique one," Borko told Qin Yue.
The interview concluded, and a week later, Ira Borko officially published the interview article in The New York Times.
