Chapter 382: Chapter 196 Las Vegas Romantic Encounter_3

The Spurs were increasingly passing the ball to Tim Duncan’s hands.

"Stone Buddha’s" stable offense kept the Spurs biting closely at the score.

But when the fourth quarter rolled around, Rick Carlisle began to target Tim Duncan more with his plays.

On both offense and defense, there was no chance to rest, even "Stone Buddha" could feel his legs getting heavy. With 6 minutes and 14 seconds left in the fourth quarter, at a critical rebound, his hands already touched the ball, but Tim Duncan couldn’t secure it. Su Wan successfully grabbed the ball, achieving a "key steal," and following up with a "chasing three-pointer," extending the lead to 10 points.

Barkley said, "Su Wan’s really getting more and more confident in his three-point shooting!"

Kenny Smith added, "This season, Su Wan has already hit 90 threes! This is the total of his three-point shots from his first two regular seasons combined; this season he did it in just 53 games!"

Barkley shook his head slightly, his face filled with emotion.

Unconsciously, after Su Wan’s mid-range became steady and his "signature," even his three-point shot was progressively stabilizing.

Then there’s the guy in Cleveland, LeBron, who was just like him with only breakthroughs back then, and he still only has that, his shooting? Unstable two years ago and still unstable now. What’s worse is he’s even losing confidence. Whenever there’s a chance to drive to the basket, he’ll give up the opportunity to shoot.

The growing gap between the two is reflected in many aspects, including their scoring methods.

Su Wan is becoming a more and more versatile scorer.

With the ball, without the ball, breakthroughs, mid-range shots, threes, Su Wan’s arsenal now has all sorts of weapons ready to pull out.

In the end, 108 to 98.

The Pacers completed the season "sweep" against the Spurs, which was the original ’07 champions. Beating them gave Su Wan a different kind of emotion.

Well, even without knowing that, Su Wan would still have a different thrill.

Who made them the Spurs?

Texas really doesn’t have any good thing!

During the post-game interview, Popovich praised Su Wan who put up 35 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals: "He’s definitely one of the best shooting guards in the younger generation, to be honest, I don’t even know who’s better between him and Kobe right now!"

Um...

If that’s considered a compliment!

Su Wan thought to himself after hearing Popovich’s words:

That Pacers fan was still too soft-hearted!

They should’ve just choked this "Old Bird" right there and then!

The Spurs’ tactics tonight were laid out, but they still couldn’t beat the Pacers; it was obvious that Popovich, seeing he couldn’t deal with Su Wan, started to sow discord.

And that Little Snake from Los Angeles would definitely take this to heart, just to prove it.

This is an open strategy, the unavoidable kind!

Popovich, this pile of dog shit, is really...

Disgusting!

After defeating the Spurs, the Pacers went on another 2-game winning streak, ending all their games before the All-Star Weekend with a 7 wins 1 loss record.

Then the substitute, recently selected for the All-Star Weekend, Artest, anxiously dragged Su Wan and Little O’Neal to Las Vegas overnight.

As the largest "Gambling City" in the United States, it’s also a place many NBA players love to visit.

Like "God of Basketball" Michael Jordan.

Speaking of which, Jordan’s self-discipline is terrifying; he likes gambling but has never gotten into big trouble over it. That’s very rare among gamblers. Most gamblers walk farther and farther down that road, ultimately to a point of no return.

However, rumors say that Jordan’s peak retirement was due to a major trouble caused by his gambling, and to protect him, they arranged for his retirement at the peak of his career.

But the credibility of that is not high.

After all, Michael Jordan never had any financial issues. On the contrary, he’s one of the most successful businessmen among athletes worldwide.

Of course, AJ played a part in that.

This is Su Wan’s second visit to Las Vegas.

The first time he came, as part of the Summer League, uncertain of the future, he didn’t partake in gambling.

This time, with Artest and Little O’Neal both interested in playing, he joined them, exchanged about 100 thousand dollars in chips, and Su Wan played the simplest guessing game.

But after a round, he didn’t want to play anymore.

People who like gambling enjoy the excitement and thrill of the moment the result comes out.

However, Su Wan, at that moment, didn’t feel the thrill but instead a strong unease.

Maybe because Su Wan is used to controlling everything now, he also got accustomed to the feeling of controlling everything on the court. Suddenly faced with something out of his control, he really could not accept it.

Gambling, to him, is not a suitable pastime.

He simply went to the nearby nightclub.

As the world-renowned "Entertainment Capital," gaming attracts countless wealthy people, and to keep them happy, naturally, all the entertainment facilities must be fully equipped and the best in every aspect.

Moreover, due to the abundance of wealthy people, Las Vegas also has one of the best security in the United States.

Um...

Historically, casinos indeed rarely have troubles.

Su Wan ordered a non-alcoholic drink and sat at the bar for a while.

Jiang Taigong fishes, and those who are willing will take the bait!

Soon, the "fish" came, a fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged woman approached him, blonde hair, blue eyes, and big waves, and importantly, her perky butt met Su Wan’s standards. After chatting for a while, Su Wan took her back to his hotel room.
