Su Yan graced the December cover of SLAM magazine. If the timing had been just a little later, perhaps the cover wouldn't have been him dunking over Nowitzki.
But rather... an Alley-oop Three-point Shot Game-Winner!!!
"What are you looking at?"
Salena asked with a smile.
"Here..."
Su Yan pointed to his striking image on the cover of the SLAM monthly magazine at the newsstand.
Walking along, he chuckled, "That magazine is highly prestigious, and I'm on the cover."
"I know SLAM magazine, it's very famous."
Salena's eyes lit up. She then gave a thumbs-up and praised, "Su Yan is amazing!
That's a spot only for superstars.
I can't believe you, as a rookie, made it onto the cover of SLAM magazine. That's incredible."
Su Yan smiled, "To be honest, I didn't expect it either."
"Haha~"
Salena also laughed, then patted Xiong Da. "Let's go, then we should celebrate properly with a good meal.
It's my treat~"
"Alright."
The two went for a seafood feast.
Today, the SLAM monthly magazine was just released, and upon sale, it sold out quickly.
Evidently.
Everyone saw Su Yan on the cover and was astonished.
Not just that he was on the cover, but because he, an Undrafted Player, made it onto the magazine cover.
Truly shocking!
Fans admired the magazine while marveling at Su Yan's greatness, and at the same time... felt sorry for Nowitzki.
He also appeared on the SLAM magazine cover.
However... he appeared as the strongest background character... After dinner with Salena, it was almost eight o'clock, and Salena suggested going to a private cinema to watch a movie.
This isn't right.
Very wrong.
Su Yan could feel Salena's feelings beyond just inviting her savior to dinner.
Her charm was deadly; every flick of her hair, exposure of her shoulders, and the occasional verbal teasing in her every smile and frown.
This was truly not something an ordinary person could resist.
If it weren't for picking up Mengmeng tonight, Su Yan might have properly indulged with Salena, this "sexy bombshell."
"I have something on later, let's reschedule."
Su Yan gave a few perfunctory remarks.
After accompanying Salena for a walk and a chat, the two parted ways.
It was 9 PM.
The drive to Mengmeng's campus was about half an hour, so there was plenty of time.
No rush.
Su Yan first checked into the St. Francis Hotel.
"What theme should it be?! High Stockings it is!"
10 PM.
Su Yan arrived at the school on time, and then... amidst the students' cheers, Mengmeng got into the car.
"Click, click, click~"
Countless male fans were heartbroken.
Countless female fans were also heartbroken.
And many more fans, holding high the "CP" banner, silently blessed this cross-industry "divine couple."
Of course.
There was also a small portion of Salena's fans who were very unwilling, clearly the "CP" banner they first raised... omitted... The next day.
1 PM.
Su Yan woke up.
Mengmeng had no schedule today, and even if she did, it would be difficult for her to attend.
Su Yan had a game tonight, and seeing Mengmeng sleeping soundly and sweetly like a kitten,
He didn't disturb her.
He quietly got up and took a shower.
He came back, pecked Mengmeng's face, and prepared to go to the stadium for training, getting ready for tonight's game against the Nets.
Just then.
Mengmeng woke up and, like a child, spoke in a soft, childish voice, "dear, are you... are you leaving?"
"Yes."
Su Yan stroked her unmade-up, still porcelain-smooth face, and chuckled, nodding, "There's a game tonight.
You must be tired, get some more rest."
"Okay... okay."
Mengmeng weakly got up, clinging to Su Yan like a lazy cat, hugging him for a while.
"Kiss~"
Mengmeng kissed Su Yan's face, then let him go... 9 PM.
The New York Knicks and the Nets began their game.
The Nets were very weak.
And it was at the New York Knicks' home court, so there was no suspense about the outcome; the New York Knicks completely dominated.
Su Yan and Stephen Curry clocked out after three quarters.
The last quarter completely devolved into Garbage Time.
The commentators weren't very interested in the game's outcome, but they were very interested in Su Yan appearing on the cover of SLAM monthly magazine.
They praised him continuously.
At the same time... everyone also wanted to see how long the New York Knicks' winning streak could last.
Are they going to challenge the 33-game winning streak?!
Su Yan, a rookie, is going to lead the team to the longest winning streak in history?
This sounds too crazy just to hear.
No one thought it was possible, at least... no team wanted to see it happen.
Thus.
After the New York Knicks secured their 24th consecutive win.
The entire league immediately branded the New York Knicks as the "Public Enemy of the League"; everyone wanted to defeat the New York Knicks.
They absolutely couldn't be allowed to continue their winning streak.
As a result, the pressure on all New York Knicks players suddenly increased, becoming even greater than before, almost suffocating them.
In fact.
After 15 consecutive wins, the New York Knicks had already been targeted by many teams in the league; their opponents always gave their all.
The pressure itself was escalating.
Now... suddenly becoming the "Public Enemy of the League," the pressure was even greater.
This was not a good thing.
Coach D'Antoni himself, feeling the pressure of the winning streak, decided to end it.
At least he felt that this newly reorganized rookie team didn't need to bear such immense pressure from a winning streak right away.
Secondly.
24 consecutive wins, standing alone as second in history, was already remarkable enough.
Good things take time.
You can't get fat with one bite.
It's better to take one step at a time.
So... he decided to rest the starters, but then came the headache: what reason should he give?!
