842. Brought to Its Knees
When Wang Yi launched that impossibly deep backcourt three in the final second and sank it, his total for the game climbed to 109 points.
He had broken his own single-game scoring record of 102.
At that moment, Madison Square Garden fell completely silent.
Every Knicks fan wore the same solemn, heavy expression, as if they were attending a funeral—the Knicks' funeral.
It was the complete opposite of the swagger they'd shown when they'd chanted "Fuck Wang" at the start of the game.
They'd really been fucked by Wang.
And not just tonight. They probably wouldn't dare say "Fuck Wang" ever again.
Courtside, Spike Lee stared blankly, unable to recover for a long time.
He'd traded insults with Reggie Miller and with Trae Young.
But Wang Yi was different from both of them.
At least those two were still within the bounds of human possibility. If the Knicks tried hard enough, they could beat them.
But with that guy Wang, there wasn't the slightest hope of winning.
All you could do against him was get humiliated—brutally.
All you could do was lie back and take it.
Meanwhile, Wang Yi's fans at courtside were cheering wildly.
They stared in disbelief at Wang Yi, who was still standing on the court with his fist clenched.
Their faces all wore much the same expression.
Incredible.
Unbelievable.
Out of this world...
Even a big star like Shaquille O'Neal looked as if he were watching a magic show.
In this day and age, it was hard to imagine anyone scoring 109 points in a single game.
The most excited people at courtside were Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Jaylen, Jeremy Lin, Zhao Liying, and the others.
They shared the same yellow skin and dark eyes, so they understood the feeling better
