NBA: Rising Superstar!

Chapter 438: Chapter 350: The League in Shock, Zeng Xingyang Creates a Sensation!

After the game ended, Zeng Xingyang excitedly jumped onto the technical platform, enjoying the cheers of the fans and took off his jersey, tossing it directly into the crowd.

The fans around kept shouting at Zeng Xingyang. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Even the owner of the Nuggets couldn’t help but run over to try to high-five Zeng Xingyang.

Butler saw this scene and had to admire Zeng Xingyang, he decisively shouted to the fans: "See you next round!"

This is Butler’s show-off style.

A reporter recorded Butler’s words, which were exactly the same as in the last round.

Butler’s stats were average today, with 14 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists, but that didn’t stop him from winning with swagger.

Butler knew that if they could win two more games against the Clippers, the media and fans would crown him as the king of swagger.

Compared to Butler, Zeng Xingyang was more qualified to show off, his 35+35+10 super triple-double performance was unparalleled.

Even Zeng Xingyang himself had never achieved such an extravagant record.

Mike Malone and the assistant coaching team were also clapping and celebrating, everyone could feel the magic of Zeng Xingyang.

Breaking scoring records was something Zeng Xingyang did often, but breaking assist records was rare.

The owner of the Nuggets was indeed very excited; besides leading the team to victories, Zeng Xingyang could achieve all kinds of statistics.

Most importantly, Zeng Xingyang’s salary wasn’t high, one could even say it was a child’s contract.

If Zeng Xingyang were willing, and if the league allowed, he’d want to give Zeng Xingyang a lifelong max contract right now!

The Clippers players quietly left amidst the cheers of the fans.

Before tonight, they were still thinking about the possibility of snatching a victory on the road, but reality told them it was impossible.

Next, they need to strive to defend their home court.

Paul scored 22 points and 14 assists tonight, performing brilliantly, though compared to Zeng Xingyang, it was like a flashlight against the sun!

For Paul, the only good news today was that there were finally no "58" related elements.

Of course, he couldn’t anticipate that fans would create the "Double 35 CP Cannon" meme.

Rivers’ face didn’t look good either, watching as his team fell into a 0-2 deficit, he was powerless.

In contrast, Mike Malone shook hands with him, smiling happily: "Doc, very sorry, we won another game, hope you can stick around for a few more matches."

Rivers stubbornly replied, "Don’t think about getting rid of us easily, or you’ll pay the price."

Mike Malone smiled, said nothing, and turned around to head back to the locker room, pondering who to give the big gold chain to.

Barkley couldn’t help but stand up with an excited voice: "35 points, 35 assists, and 11 rebounds, the great Zeng Xingyang led the Nuggets to slaughter the Clippers, who were in top form, turning the series score to 2-0. God, who can stop him!"

Smith beside him looked speechless, the winning margin wasn’t huge, is this called a slaughter?

Then what about winning by fifty points or more, what does that count as?

However, the Nuggets, led by Zeng Xingyang, were indeed exceedingly strong, the Nuggets now looked almost incapable of losing.

The Clippers were very strong, but still couldn’t defeat the Nuggets.

At the post-game press conference.

An ESPN reporter interviewed Zeng Xingyang: "Zeng, this is your personal showcase performance, very spectacular. You’re the first player in NBA history to achieve such an extravagant triple-double, and the first in NBA history to have 35 playoff assists. How do you feel right now? Can you tell us how you managed to achieve this?"

Facing the reporter’s questions, Zeng Xingyang couldn’t help but smile and replied: "First of all, this isn’t my personal showcase performance; it’s the result of team effort. If my teammates couldn’t score on my passes, then it wouldn’t be an assist. As for how I feel, I’m very happy. As for how I achieved it, I just focus on scoring in the most efficient way, and if the opponents keep double-teaming me, then they’ll pay the price."

The reporter asked: "Many people say that in your second season you’re doing better than Jordan, what do you think?"

Zeng Xingyang replied: "China has an old saying, ’the waves behind push the waves in front.’ As young players, Jordan is the benchmark we strive to surpass. It’s not that he can’t be surpassed, but rather he’s just there, and as for who is better, fans will naturally have their conclusions."

Zeng Xingyang has always been very confident; as long as he performs better than Jordan every season, then surpassing Jordan will naturally occur.

"Will you sweep your opponents again?"

"Honestly, it depends on them, if they can fend off our attacks. Of course, I’ll try my best to win every game."

"How do you rate Chris Paul?"

"Chris is a very excellent player, he can ensure a team’s lower limit isn’t very low, but to go further, better systems might be needed."

Zeng Xingyang’s words were very direct.

Paul is steady in low-pressure situations, but in high-pressure ones, various issues arise, which is determined by his talent.

Although Zeng Xingyang’s interview seemed somewhat arrogant, the reporters and fans still felt that he was too modest.

If they achieved Zeng Xingyang’s stats, they would be even more arrogant.

Zeng Xingyang’s performance once again exceeded the fans’ expectations of him.

This season, most fans felt Zeng Xingyang’s stats were steady and wouldn’t be as record-breaking crazy as last season, yet tonight, Zeng Xingyang once again proved with his strength that as long as there’s an opportunity, he can break records. The reason for not breaking records often was simply because the team didn’t need him to do so.

35+35+11 stats in NBA history are explosive enough, surely drawing league-wide attention.

"35 points, 35 assists, 11 rebounds, Zeng Xingyang’s defying performance helps the Nuggets secure a 2-0 victory over the Clippers!"

"CP3’s Western Conference Finals dream may halt again, Nuggets’ power blows up the table."

"Nuggets owner and Clippers owner both gaze at Zeng Xingyang with longing eyes."

"Sophomore Zeng Xingyang surpasses sophomore Michael, even though Michael has a single-game 63-point miracle."

In Cleveland, James looked at the overwhelming news about Zeng Xingyang online, feeling vaguely uneasy.

It seemed that this season the Knight might not be able to defeat such a Nuggets.

If they can’t beat the Nuggets, then he must reconsider his choices.

This time, he wants to go to a major market!!

Though pondering his own matters, James was also shocked by Zeng Xingyang’s 35+35.

"This guy is freakishly strong."

James felt that if he had faced Zeng Xingyang last season, the Knight might not have won the championship.

Besides James, Durant was also paying attention to the Nuggets’ game.

Undoubtedly, the Warriors’ biggest rival in the West now is the Nuggets, and the Warriors are confronting the Nuggets as challengers.

Before joining the Warriors, Durant imagined the Warriors as unstoppable, but that scene has not come to pass.

If the Warriors meet the Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals this year and they lose, Durant dares not imagine how the media would spin it.

Durant also regrets not chatting with Zeng Xingyang earlier, maybe he would have joined the Nuggets.
