It was the day of the Eastern Conference Finals' first game.
With summer arriving, the heating system of the Bradley Center was no longer an issue, and it had once again become a beloved away venue.
However, Shaquille O'Neal didn't like it.
Or to be more precise, Shaquille O'Neal didn't like any event where Yu Fei was present.
It was like a person who had developed post-traumatic stress from childhood abuse or some other significant trauma, Yu Fei's face, Yu Fei's photos, Yu Fei's name, they all reminded Shaquille O'Neal of the past five years he had gone through.
Sometimes, Shaquille O'Neal couldn't help but think, was Yu Fei some kind of kryptonite sent by God; why couldn't he, who once dominated the NBA, win against him?
It was a question that Shaquille O'Neal still couldn't figure out to this day.
