Facing Bosh's question, Wade fell silent, his thoughts in disarray.
LeBron, however, had a determined look in his eyes as he said seriously, "It's true—Blake Su is an extremely tough opponent.
For now, we haven't really found any true weaknesses in his game.
But I'm not afraid of him. I don't fear any player. No matter who I face, I'm confident I can beat them—even Blake Su.
Besides… the Suns' Steve Nash and Carter are getting older, and Curry's potential hasn't fully blossomed yet. You could say the only truly dominant player on that team right now is Blake Su.
But basketball isn't a one-man game.
We, the Heat, have the three strongest players in the league. We can easily defeat the Suns with Blake Su, and we can beat any team. This year… we have only one goal.
The championship."
LeBron's words set Wade and Bosh's eyes ablaze. The three exchanged glances, brimming with confidence about the future.
...
At the commentary booth.
Van Gundy watched as the final buzzer sounded and declared, "That's the end of the game. The Suns win on the road against the Hornets, completing the season sweep and extending their winning streak to nine.
Tonight, Blake Su put up 51 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists, 2 steals, and 4 blocks—a dazzling '50+ triple-double.' And… he knocked down five three-pointers.
That's two straight triple-doubles.
And this '50+ triple-double' makes Blake Su the youngest player in NBA history to achieve the feat—and the first rookie ever to record a '50+ triple-double' in his debut season.
Incredible. Truly incredible!"
Van Gundy seemed to run out of adjectives for the dominant Blake Su, repeating "incredible" again and again.
Mark Jackson took over with a smile. "The key point is—Blake Su, who just posted a 50+ triple-double and keeps setting records, is a center.
And not just any center—a versatile one who can shoot from three.
Looking across the league right now, I can't find a single center who can compare to him.
Maybe… only forwards with center-like height, like Durant or Nowitzki, could barely be mentioned in the same breath as Blake Su.
But no matter how you look at it, Blake Su—the center from the Middle Kingdom—has already shown the entire league his extraordinary talent and his unique offensive game. His future has no limits."
"Boom!"
The commentators' remarks sent the arena into a frenzy. Suns fans leapt to their feet, waving their arms and cheering loudly for tonight's MVP, Blake Su.
"Haha, Blake Su can shoot threes?!"
The surprise thrilled the bench. Coach Gentry was overjoyed. He knew very well that if Blake Su truly had three-point range, his game would instantly rise to another level.
For the team, that was fantastic news.
Steve Nash patted Blake Su on the back and laughed. "So you've had a three-point shot all along. Why keep it hidden? Saving it as a secret weapon for the playoffs?"
"Heh."
Blake Su smiled. "Of course not. I just didn't get the right opportunities before. Tonight the looks were there—and I had a little luck—so they fell."
There was no easy way to explain it, so he brushed it off.
"You're always so modest."
Steve Nash shook his head. Curry leaned over to congratulate him. "Your mid-range jumpers already give defenders headaches. Now you've added the three-ball?
There probably aren't many people in the league who can guard you."
"Not many?"
Carter gave him a look as if he were underestimating Blake Su, then grinned. "There's no one. No one who can guard Blake Su. In one-on-one offense or defense, he's unstoppable."
"Hey, that's exactly what I meant."
Curry pouted, looking like a startled elementary school kid, which made everyone laugh. Even the usually easygoing Curry couldn't help but grin.
A win always puts everyone in a good mood.

After the game against the Hornets, Blake Su's flawless offensive display dominated major headlines and trended across Twitter.
"WTF? A center—and a rookie at that—drops a '50+ triple-double' and hits five threes? Are you sure this isn't fake news?!"
"My God. What did I just hear? A center shooting threes from the perimeter and running the entire offense? That's insane."
"Center Blake Su—his perimeter scoring is ridiculous."
"Wait, didn't they say Blake Su couldn't shoot threes? Five in one game? Four straight? What happened against the Hornets? Someone explain!"
"Hehehe!"
"The fact that so many people don't believe it just proves how absurdly strong Blake Su is—so strong it feels unreal."
"Exactly! Blake Su is a center—a center with phenomenal offensive skills, a technical center who doesn't rely purely on physical dominance!
He's going to shock the entire league."
No—he already has.
With his dazzling performances, Blake Su has stunned the league. He's a true super rookie—the strongest center in the game!
"A 'technical' center might sound strange… but honestly, it fits Blake Su perfectly."
"Let's go, Blake Su!"
"Blake Su, I'm your loyal fan starting today. I'll support you forever!"
"Me too!"
"Count me in!"
"Wait—me too, me too!"
Another spectacular performance sent Blake Su's popularity soaring across the league like a rocket launch.
And amid the heated discussions,
Two-time consecutive FNVP and the current "best player in the league," Kobe Bryant, posted on Twitter:
"Blake Su, congratulations on becoming the youngest player ever with a 50-point triple-double.
You're an outstanding rookie center.
Any player facing a 'technical-style' center with your size would have a tough time. But… I'd actually like to face you myself.
Let me see just how troublesome that offense of yours really is."
Buzz!
Kobe's challenge-like message instantly set the internet ablaze.
"What? Kobe is openly challenging Blake Su—a rookie?!"
"Oh my God. From the way Kobe's talking, he's putting Blake Su on his own level! A rookie being mentioned alongside Kobe?!"
"Kobe challenges Blake Su? Kobe is the 'best in the league,' so does that mean… Kobe = Blake Su = best in the league?!"
"This is outrageous!"
"Hahaha! Praise—and a challenge—from Kobe Bryant, the 'best in the league.' Doesn't that mean Blake Su already has superstar-level ability?!"
