Evening.
Just as Su Yan arrived home, Rebecca smiled, rushed over, and gave Su Yan a big hug.
Hmm, very soft.
"dear, you were amazing today, and you must be exhausted. Go take a shower quickly; I've prepared your pajamas."
"Thank you, dear!"
Su Yan pecked Rebecca on the cheek, changed into his slippers, and went to the bathroom to shower first.
Having such a beautiful and thoughtful girlfriend who meticulously handles everything at home for him, Su Yan felt truly content.
After finishing his shower, he came out.
Rebecca was sitting on the carpet, concentrating intently on building Lego, a new hobby she had recently picked up.
The news was playing on the TV.
It just so happened to be broadcasting... the officially announced relationship between Su Yan and Mengmeng.
Su Yan walked over to Rebecca, sat on the carpet beside her, pulled her into his embrace, and pointed toward the TV.
Rebecca understood what Su Yan meant.
Her small head rubbed against Su Yan's chest, and she whispered softly, "dear, I don't mind at all.
You are already so good to me.
As long as you keep treating me this well, I'll be perfectly happy~
As for the rest, as long as they don't mind when they find out, I don't care at all."
"dear, you are so wonderful!"
Su Yan smiled, pecked Rebecca on the cheek, and looked at her with immense affection.
Having such a thoughtful and beautiful woman is truly wonderful~
...The next day.
Keywords like [Su Yan 11 Three-point Shots, 51 Points], [New York Knicks 21-game Winning Streak], and [Run-and-Gun Cyclone 2.0 Version]...
surged onto the trending topics.
Fans were discussing them intensely.
"21 consecutive wins? Is this the terrifying record achieved by the New York Knicks, who started the season with 10 straight losses?!
Are we sure this isn't a video game.
Are we sure they aren't cheating?!"
"It's unbelievable!"
"It's a complete shift from hell to heaven, and the only difference is the appearance of the 'vase' Su Yan!"
"Su Yan is truly fierce!"
"..."
The fans' discussions were endless.
As for the New York Knicks, who defeated the Phoenix Suns, their next two games are also very interesting, featuring a double coincidence.
Their opponents are: the Rockets (away) and the Boston Celtics (home).
The first coincidence: The New York Knicks have a chance to tie the Rockets' longest historical winning streak of 22 games on the Rockets' home court!
The second coincidence: The team that ended the Rockets' 22-game winning streak was the Boston Celtics.
If the New York Knicks conquer the Rockets and achieve 22 consecutive wins, their next game will also be against the Boston Celtics.
Will they be ended in the same way, or will they rise to the challenge and set a new record for the second-longest winning streak?
This is highly anticipated.
The Rockets definitely don't want the New York Knicks to tie their franchise record of 22 consecutive wins right in front of them.
The New York Knicks definitely want to secure 23 consecutive wins and hold the second-longest streak in history alone.
The Boston Celtics definitely want to defeat the New York Knicks' 22-game winning streak and tell the entire league that they are the 22-game streak terminators!!!
The three teams all had their own intentions.
This makes the upcoming Rockets vs. New York Knicks and New York Knicks vs. Boston Celtics games... highly anticipated!
The 2007–08 season.
During the Rockets' 22-game winning streak, the greatest contributors were none other than the "Yao-Mac Combination."
Now it is the 2009–10 season. Only two years have passed, but the Rockets' situation has completely changed.
Yao Ming is out for the season.
McGrady has come to the New York Knicks.
With the "Yao-Mac Combination" gone, the Rockets' strength has plummeted. Forget about achieving 22 consecutive wins and rushing to the top of the Western Conference.
Even making the Playoffs is currently a luxury.
Although they are playing on their home court, they are simply no match for the New York Knicks.
Before the game.
Yao Ming, the "Spiritual Leader" this season, arrived at the locker room in a suit and tie, looked at his teammates, and smiled, saying, "I hope everyone can defeat the New York Knicks.
But you must also protect yourselves.
Injuries? That is damage our team absolutely cannot afford anymore.
Therefore... if possible, end the New York Knicks' 22-game winning streak, the record that my brothers and I created.
Even if it's Su Yan, I don't want him to break it.
But if, as the game goes on, the score difference is too large, and the hope of catching up is very slim.
I hope... everyone doesn't push too hard, protects themselves, avoids conflict, and in doing so, fulfills their wishes and gives the New York Knicks a victory."
"Understood."
"I know what Yao Ming means, don't worry!
Winning is the priority, but if it truly doesn't work out, we won't act recklessly. Helping a fellow countryman set a record isn't a bad thing either."
"Got it!"
Everyone nodded and agreed.
If not for Yao Ming's words, the entire Rockets team would have fought the New York Knicks tooth and nail tonight.
Even if they lost, they would have battled until the very last second.
Now, they will try their best to win, but they won't play too aggressively, ensuring that the game proceeds without incident and minimizing the risk of injury for both teams.
Soon.
The night arrived.
From the very start of the game, the New York Knicks took the lead, while the Rockets employed high-intensity defense against Su Yan.
Starting with two players, they focused on Su Yan beyond the Three-point Shot line.
An ordinary Shooter would truly have no way to attack.
Su Yan was different; he could not only force his way open using strength but also utilize Off-Ball Movement Lv2 and screens from his teammates to shake off his opponents and create scoring opportunities.
They couldn't stop him.
The Rockets couldn't stop Su Yan no matter what they did.
Because they spent too much energy on the perimeter, David Lee and Tyson under the basket, who didn't have Yao Ming to contend with, scored with exceptional ease.
With those three drawing attention, Curry also had many opportunities.
Coupled with the entire team's overflowing confidence.
The New York Knicks exploded both inside and outside, unleashing the fierce firepower of the "Run-and-Gun Cyclone," sweeping the Rockets away in one rapid sequence.
In the first quarter, they led by 7 points.
At halftime, the New York Knicks held a 12-point lead.
In the third quarter, at the 5:12 mark, an 18:7 offensive storm rapidly extended the lead to 21 points.
The game was over.
After three quarters, the Rockets were down by 22 points, having trailed by as much as 28 points; they were completely crushed.
In the final quarter.
After a symbolic struggle for three minutes, seeing that the point difference showed no sign of shrinking, they decisively... gave up the game.
The last nine minutes turned into Garbage Time.
The New York Knicks were also highly advantageous; they pulled all their starters, signaled the end of the battle, and let the matchup become an all-bench affair.
The outcome was predetermined.
The New York Knicks won.
However, losing by only 9 points in the end was still respectable enough.
Su Yan finished three quarters tonight with 27 points, 3 rebounds, 6 assists, 5 steals, and 3 blocks. His scoring breakdown was: 6 Three-point Shots, 4 two-point shots, and 3 free throws.
64.8+43.2+31.6+80.8+60.48+30.32 = 566,400.
Dribbling + steps, approximately 24,000 times.
5*2.4 = 120,000.
Total: 56.64 + 12 = 686,400.
Experience: 2,427,064 / 10,000,000.
Current Balance: 8.2333 million.
"COME ON!"
On the commentary desk.
Mike Breen excitedly announced: "Congratulations to the New York Knicks for securing their 22nd consecutive win, tying the second-longest winning streak in NBA history, originally set by the Rockets!
The next game.
If they defeat the Boston Celtics, they will hold the second-longest streak in history alone!!!"
