That night, as soon as Qin Yue began, he performed miracles at Madison Square Garden...
The ensuing dead silence in the "Holy Land of Basketball" is undoubtedly the best tribute to this new era's God of Basketball.
On the court, Knicks on the offense.
To stabilize the situation, Durant responded to the GOAT's opening slam dunk with a clean jumper near the free-throw line.
Swish!
The basketball went through the hoop.
Yet, before the home fans could react.
On the Warriors' side, Qin Yue made Howard stumble with an ordinary crossover on the outside.
Then, with ample adjustment time, Qin Yue stepped back beyond the three-point line and made a jump shot.
It was only when the stadium screen replayed Qin Yue's move that people realized...
How Howard was stunned in that moment invisible to the naked eye.
Just like Ronaldo, nicknamed the Alien back then, whose dribbling finesse could only be appreciated upon slow-motion replay.
