Chapter 687: Chapter 257: Do you think I’m on the same level as LeBron James? _3
Tyronn Lue, however, watched calmly.
At the outset of his career, he had always experienced such moments.
In recent years, as tactics became more widespread and players’ tactical skills improved, more teams began to win by coordinating through passing.
This phenomenon meant:
Even players with a singular function could secure their place in the league.
Especially the recently popular "3D" players.
But in fact, in the early ’90s, just having a good three-point shot and defense was really not enough to hold a position in most of the league teams, let alone getting a salary of millions.
Back then, teams valued "versatile" players more, meaning you had to know a bit of everything.
Now, if the team lacks what you have, even if you can’t do anything else, then you are still an "important puzzle piece" for the team.
But at times like this, such "puzzle pieces" could only watch from the sidelines; the ultimate showdown had to be handed over to the team’s absolute core, to those players who could handle the ball better.
Terry also started to show instability.
Su Wan scored repeatedly, further narrowing the score gap to 2 points.
Nowitzki, truly had his "Divine Enthronement " season this year.
Terry was faltering, but he burst forth with terrifying energy, whether it was Artest or Tyson Chandler on defense, it was futile!
Under such a state, his score broke the 40-point mark.
And at this time, Su Wan’s score also broke through 70 points.
Madison witnessed the new "miracle"...
The arena had seen "60-plus" scores twice, but never had a player scored over 70!
Su Wan...
He did it!
At this moment, New Yorkers in the audience were left with only a deep sense of shock, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Even as fervent followers of Su Wan, they hadn’t expected that, after blasting 25 points in the third quarter, Su Wan would score another 15 points in less than 7 minutes of the fourth quarter.
Was he going for another 25 points in a single quarter?
That would be...
points!
In NBA history, there had only been two "80-plus" performances.
Once was in the ancient times with the Warriors, Chamberlain’s single-game 100 points, a spectacular record.
Another happened four years ago, Kobe Bryant’s 81-point "dragon slaying" created "a new legend".
Could today be the day Su Wan creates a new legend?
One by one, New Yorkers stood up, reverently watching the close-up shots of Su Wan on the big screen.
No, not just the New Yorkers at the venue.
But all 6.5 million people in New York State were thrilled.
New Yorkers watching the game were spreading the word, urging those around them to turn on their TVs:
"Quick, quick, quick, Su Wan is creating a new legend!"
"Don’t ask why, just turn on TNT, or you’ll regret it for the rest of your life!"
"New Yorkers don’t deceive each other, you’re about to witness a new miracle!"
"I’m already kneeling for Su Wan, you better join in quick!"
...
Dolan even made a direct call to his TV station: "Pause all programs, and broadcast the game between the New York Knicks and the Dallas Mavericks tonight immediately."
The advertisements scrolling on the big screens at Times Square were interrupted at this moment, switching to the live broadcast of the game.
At the same time, every radio station in New York was talking about the same thing:
"Su Wan is creating a miracle!"
The sensation throughout New York sent the game’s viewership skyrocketing, and David Stern soon became aware of the situation.
After confirming the news, he quickly turned on his TV.
Likewise, in Los Angeles, Kobe also learned from a friend about the incredible feat Su Wan was achieving, and he too turned on the TV.
The screen just came on as Su Wan, facing Jason Kidd, completed a layup, drawing a foul as well.
"77 points, 77 points!"
"Su Wan has scored 77 points in this game!"
"He is now just 4 points away from breaking Kobe’s 81-point record!"
...
After hearing the commentator’s last words, a sharp pang thronged Kobe’s heart.
Su Wan...
Was he really going to break his record too?
Damn it, that guy really is...
Terrifying!
Kobe had known for a long time, once Su Wan reached the peak of his physical condition at 25 years old, he would definitely have more terrifying performances, but he hadn’t expected that the 25-year-old Su Wan would first break his single-game 81-point record.
This news quickly spread to Oklahoma.
"Little Handsome" was picking out his handsome photos to send to Scarlett when he saw a pop-up notification on the right side of his screen:
Su Wan was about to become the third NBA player to score 80-plus points in a single game.
Thinking he had seen it wrong, when he turned on the TV and saw Su Wan’s score, he was stunned.
Was he really always competing against such a terrifying guy?
It seemed normal not to outscore him!
Ah, spit!
"Du Xiaoshuai" never backed down when it came to scoring!
Just 80 points in a single game?
Just wait...
A crazy goal formed in Kevin Durant’s mind.
There’s no other reason, if Su Wan could do it, so could he.
The Mavericks looked dejected one by one, seemingly out of any resistance. As for Haywood who committed the foul, he had nothing to say apart from gesturing that he indeed fouled.
It was too terrifying!
Really too terrifying!
Apart from themselves, no one knew what they were really facing.
Dallas was completely silent.
