On the plane to Portland, Chen Yu and Nelson were discussing the Wallace trade.
"The Blazers still lost out on this one," Nelson said.
Chen Yu nodded in agreement.
It was said to be a one-for-six trade, but the only real core asset was Milicic.
Looking at the trade assets, Chen Yu remembered Bob Sura because he'd done something ridiculous back when he was with the Hawks: he intentionally missed a layup to pad his stats for a triple-double.
It was a small thing, but it revealed a lot about his character—he was too selfish, too much of a ball hog.
After joining the Warriors, he played well for two years, but then injuries caught up to him.
His playstyle relied too much on driving to the basket, but as a white player, his body wasn't strong enough. How could he not get injured?
Last season, he had a major injury and missed thirty games.
Chen Yu had treated him before.
