60-point difference.
Everyone was watching this game, which had long lost suspense, without blinking.
This might be the most-watched game that was driven into garbage time in recent years.
Although the outcome was long decided, most fans still watched until the last second.
At the scene, not many fans left the stadium early. It was as if some immense force held their shoulders down, making them unable to move.
Everyone wanted to see the end, to see how much the Hornets would ultimately lose by.
But even with mental preparation, the final score gap broke everyone's expectations.
In NBA-level games, no one would normally think a team would lose to another team by 60 points, just like no one would normally think of using the basketball writer Old Writer's beef dish as a recipe, the answer would be dry-fried beef.
This score is as fantastical as that answer.
