By comparison, the home team's locker room back at the AT&T Center was far more luxurious.
So Chen Yu joked that he was planning to renovate the visitor's locker room at the US Airways Center, modeling it after the Spurs'.
Popovich gave a wry smile, completely devoid of enthusiasm.
But after a moment of silence, he said, "Thank you."
Chen Yu had every reason to ignore the situation, but he still came over the moment the game ended.
"Nothing to thank me for. You know the kind of person I am."
Chen Yu smiled and walked into the locker room.
'The biggest reason I'm helping the Spurs right now is definitely because I'm a doctor. When faced with an ailment, there's no reason not to treat it.'
'My original principles have never changed.'
'Besides, deep down, I feel that doing this is also good for the Suns.'
'For one thing, we need to win fair and square.'
'Of course, that's just to shut up the media and the fans. It's not actually that important.'
