Chapter 318: Chapter 183 June 9th, sunny, Su Wan killed the group of Dallas people!_3

Because the Mavericks had a collective shooting performance of 1 for 5 in the last 3 minutes of the third quarter, it was the worst shooting interval of the game up to that point. This indicated that the Pacers’ defense was effective; the Mavericks’ condition had been exhausted by the Pacers’ relentless close-up physical combat.

If the Pacers hadn’t been in a bad state during that time, they could have narrowed the difference to around 10 points before entering the fourth quarter.

Unfortunately, the night’s "close-up physical combat" drained the Mavericks’ condition and also affected the offensive state of the Pacers’ players.

But for Rick Carlisle, worrying about not being able to make headway on the offensive end was the least of his concerns.

All he needed to do was shout, "Come to my rescue, oh wise one. Ah, spit, I mean Su Wan!"

That would suffice.

"Damned Huaxia people, you’re destined not to lift the cup in this arena!"

"Go back to Indiana, quick!"

"Dallas will not witness you raising the O’Brien Cup, Ching Chong!"

However, the continuous lead throughout the game had apparently gone to Dallas people’s heads; they failed to notice the weakness of the Mavericks in the latter part of the third quarter.

They only saw that during the time when the Mavericks couldn’t score, the Pacers failed to seize the opportunity to catch up.

How unfortunate!

Tonight, you’re fated to leave with your heads down.

"Bang!"

Faced with the Dallas fans’ unbridled insults, Su Wan began the fourth quarter with a slam dunk that surged towards the basket, silencing them for a second.

Whether Maverick fans would admit it or not, the scene from the end of the season’s fourth quarter, where Su Wan scored 19 points, left a deep impression in their hearts and made them incredibly wary.

So when Su Wan scored at the start of the fourth quarter, the Dallas people instantly felt uneasy.

This unease and apprehension, once they became aware of it, quickly turned into personal attacks out of anger and frustration, and the noise in the venue grew louder.

They were unwilling to admit that they were, in fact, afraid of Su Wan.

"Is this the ability that got you a $70 million contract?" Su Wan started targeting Dan Piel, who, in his normal state, needed his teammates to rally together to have any hope of catching up from a 15-point difference. But as long as he could enter "The zone," the rest of the Pacers only needed to focus on defense.

It was assumed that such a remark would break Dan’s defense entirely, but unexpectedly, he just looked upset and didn’t retort.

So patient?

That somewhat surprised Su Wan.

Or was the "Little General’s" multiple strict orders that effective?

Well, then I won’t hold back!

"Calling yourself the Western Second Center? The second from the bottom?"

"You can’t even beat me for the rebounds?"

"Does Mark Cuban feel the impulse to strangle you?"

"If I were the Mavericks’ GM, I would’ve granted you an amnesty by now!"

"Your greatest contribution to the Mavericks would be to retire right now, you know?"

...

"Damn it, shut your filthy mouth, Huaxia man. Can’t you see who’s leading now?"

Finally, Dan Piel couldn’t hold back any longer and responded.

He spoke very softly, obviously afraid that his head coach would hear.

Less than 4 minutes remained in the fourth quarter.

And the point difference was still around 12 points.

He simply didn’t believe that such a gap could be overturned by Su Wan!

But Su Wan heard his rebuttal clearly.

The noise in the venue was getting louder and louder.

Although Su Wan had already scored 8 points, given his current scoring frequency and the pace of the Pacers’ catch-up, the probability of a Mavericks turnover was getting smaller and smaller.

They mocked Su Wan even more unrestrainedly.

His expression became incredibly sharp as the voices pierced his ears.

"Bang!"

Just having reluctantly retaliated, Dan Piel watched as Su Wan charged towards the basket, instinctively moving forward to block him, but suddenly it seemed to go dark before his eyes. Looking up, he saw that Su Wan, who had just started a Breakthrough from the three-point line, rushed up to his face in the time it took him to sidestep, leaping high.

The thunderous dunk noise rang in Dan’s ears.

"Toot!"

The referee’s whistle sounded at that moment.

Inside the Reasonable Collision Zone, non-jumping Dan Piel was called for blocking foul.

The chorus of boos in the venue suddenly paused.

Everyone was taken aback that Su Wan, just when they thought they had secured the victory, had dunked over the 2.11-meter tall Dan Piel.

"Swoosh!"

While they were still stunned, Su Wan calmly hit the free throw.

The gap was back to nine points.

"Little General" Johnson immediately called for a time-out, resetting the defense against Su Wan.

The speed and explosive power that Su Wan showed in that instantaneous dash to the basket were very familiar to Johnson, who had spent the past 10 days analyzing Su Wan’s plays.

It was a sign that he had entered "The zone" state.

Damn it...

There’s no way to defend against him now!

According to all the data that Johnson had gathered, there were almost no players who could continue to limit Su Wan while he was in "The zone."

Even if there was a way, it wasn’t something this defensively weaker Mavericks’ perimeter could emulate.

Now, if the Mavericks wanted to win, they had to rely on their outstanding performance tonight and keep scoring.

"Come on, guys, believe in your performance tonight. We can definitely take tonight’s game!"

"Hold on for just a few more minutes!"

As serious as Johnson’s expression was, Carlisle’s was equally relaxed. He, too, felt that Su Wan had entered "The zone."
