"Little Sheep Su Xi and the Pacers have become one. He may never reach the legendary heights of Michael Jordan, but for the next five years, he and the Pacers will be strong contenders for the championship. I predict he will win more championships than Jordan."
Larry Brown gave an exclusive interview to ESPN, spending a full 10 minutes discussing Indiana and Su Xi. For him, it was the biggest Waterloo of his coaching career in Detroit.
The reporter said to him, "But some people are already saying that a 20-year-old Jordan wasn't as good as Little Sheep Su Xi. If, as you say, Little Sheep Su Xi wins more championships than Jordan, people will definitely say he's a greater superstar than Jordan..."
"No, no. It's not the same."
