Chapter 684: Chapter 256: 60 Plus... Is This Really the End of the Game for Su Wan?_5

Kenny Smith glanced at Barkley with a strange expression.

Indeed, Barkley had called it right.

If Su Wan continued his first-half performance into the second half, then he could score 60 points!

Indeed, more terrifying than 50 points...

It seemed like even God wanted to break the New York Knicks’ "home invincibility" tonight, with the Mavericks’ fiery form.

And there was another thing...

The Knicks’ current lineup truly relied solely on Su Wan!

During the half-time break, D’Antoni and Tyronn Lue consulted together on how to play the second half. D’Antoni’s idea was to have everyone try to shoot, increase shooting points, and if nobody else managed, then just G...

Hmm...

That was a typical D’Antoni tactic.

But D’Antoni felt there was nothing wrong with his idea.

Considering how Su Wan had performed in the first half, yet the team was still trailing by 10 points.

That proved that individual effort was limited, sometimes one person really couldn’t beat a group.

He respected Su Wan greatly, but to defeat the current Mavericks, the Knicks needed everyone to try to join the offense, even though they hadn’t performed well in the first half under Su Wan’s lead.

Yet, it was the only way.

Tyronn Lue, however, thought that in the second half the ball should be given solely to Su Wan to decide how to play.

As for others, just focus on defense!

This was not only respecting Su Wan’s abilities but also respecting Tyronn Lue’s entire career.

Players like Su Wan, some nights could unleash incredible abilities.

He believed that.

As for Su Wan, he was on the internet looking up real-time reports from Dallas, watching them excitingly popping champagne prematurely, all the mocking comments, his rage escalating.

He was well aware that his anger towards Mark Cuban and the Mavericks was no less than Cleveland’s towards LeBron.

Especially after the "drug test incident," it had aligned Mark Cuban with LeBron even more. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

As the fury continuously flooded his brain, a comment from Mark Cuban truly ignited his eyes.

Mark Cuban had posted a live status:

"It’s clear that Su Wan has given up on winning. He has no intention of rallying his teammates; he just wants to rack up the score, so his loss doesn’t look so humiliating. No problem ... you keep your high score, we’ll take the victory in Dallas!"

What more could he say?

Mark Cuban!

Well, thank you so very much!

To show my appreciation, let Dirk Nowitzki get another round on the "wall of shame!"

Su Wan felt that familiar sensation.

"The zone" had opened!

After the second half, the cheering in the arena surged wave upon wave, especially when Su Wan appeared, the cheers seemed almost to blow the roof off.

Though the team was still behind by 10 points.

But Su Wan’s first-half performance had pumped them up to the max.

Just put it this way, if anyone from the Mavericks performed poorly tonight, then Su Wan’s firepower could suppress them.

It was just unlucky for the Knicks to face an all-fired-up Mavericks, otherwise...

Su Wan was genuinely taking on an entire team alone!

Hmm...

That was the current atmosphere.

Not just the New Yorkers thought so, even the commentators, including Cuban, believed it.

Tonight, Su Wan would score high, even...

"I think tonight Su Wan will surpass his career high for a single game," Barkley glanced at Su Wan’s game stats; during the past year’s playoff finals in Game 6 he had scored over 60 points.

That was one of the most classic finals in NBA history.

But in regular season, he had never scored over 60 points.

Tonight, Su Wan would fill that record.

Then...

Lose the first home game of the season.

As expected, Su Wan continued his strong performance at the start of the third quarter, scoring various points, quickly breaking past 40 points.

But the Mavericks were also in excellent form tonight, especially after putting Jason Terry in, their firepower could totally keep up with Su Wan’s scoring speed.

Midway through the third quarter, with over 7 minutes left, the Mavericks were still leading by 11 points.

However, as the game went on, the atmosphere began to feel off.

Su Wan played more fiercely, making unbelievable scores, leaving the spectators in awe.

Barkley kept exclaiming in the studio:

"45 points!"

"Su Wan has already scored 45 points!"

"50 points!"

"OMG, there are still 3 minutes left in the third quarter, but Su Wan has already scored 50 points!"

"53 points!"

"Another basket!"

"55 points!"

By the end of the third quarter, the utterly furious Su Wan had frozen his score for the match at 55 points.

That is to say, in the third quarter alone, he had scored 25 points!

Terrifying scoring ability had the New Yorkers stunned.

Kenny Smith once again looked at Barkley, his pupils visibly shaking, and at half-time he had agreed with Barkley that Su Wan could reach 60 points, already a very exaggerated number, but now he wanted to ask:

"Over 60 ... is that really where this game ends for Su Wan?"
