When Su Xi saw Eddie Curry at training camp, he was dumbfounded. He felt like the guy was here to be a bodyguard… usually, only bodyguards had that kind of massive build… convenient for blocking bullets.
"Eddie! Are you sure you can fit into a jersey?"
Su Xi asked him.
Eddie Curry said, "Of course, no problem."
Then, he struggled with all his might to pull on the jersey, which ended up looking like a compression shirt.
It was painful for Su Xi just to watch.
Then, they took their new season's media day photos.
A wave of reporters swarmed in for interviews.
The New York reporters asked Su Xi many questions. For example, where he went during the offseason, and how it felt to defeat the Dream Team and win the gold medal at the World Championship…
When Su Xi answered the second question, he looked a little puzzled. He said, "We won the gold medal by defeating Germany."
This made the reporters on the scene a bit awkward.
