After savoring the taste of being champions last season, Roger felt indifferent towards the division championship.
Once the award ceremony ended and he returned to the locker room, Roger became ecstatic.
He high-fived every teammate with a smile, "Just four more wins, four games isn't a lot, we just need four more wins and we'll grab that damn trophy again—I can't wait to have the last laugh! Hats off to Saru for your crucial performance in the third quarter. Salute to Ron for turning Michael into a useless old dog in the fourth quarter. Props to Shaq for not letting that bastard Dennis get the key offensive rebounds. We are going to win again, guys, we're going to win again!"
Shaquille O'Neal smiled and high-fived Roger, temporarily forgetting all the displeasure.
I'm not even the best player on the team? No, why should I care about what a loser says?
Today I was just off my game, everyone has off days, it's normal.
