36-point

"My god!"

Jon Barry opened his mouth wide, exclaiming, "A triple-double in less than half a game. I didn't expect Carlos, besides being sharp in outside attacks, to also have excellent passing abilities?! This center is too strong!"

"Well..."

Mark Jackson pursed his lips, then thought for a moment before saying, "Carlos does have passing ability, at least for the center position, he is indeed superior to many centers. However... I think Carlos's passing ability is not that outstanding."

"Oh?"

Jon Barry made a sound, gesturing for Mark to continue his performance. Mark Jackson continued, "Unlike traditional point guards who actively look for opportunities to pass, Carlos's passes are almost entirely based on his own threats, either through penetration or his significant shooting ability. He attracts the defense and then passes to open teammates for scoring. It's not conventional playmaking."

"That's true..."

Jon Barry nodded in agreement, then chuckled, "But individual ability driving teammates is also a way of organizing an offense, isn't it? It's not unacceptable. Moreover... Carlos is a center. His ability to pass like this is enough to give countless opponents and team coaches a headache."

"I wonder which sports brand will sign him after Carlos performs so well tonight. I guess it should be a big contract!"

"Yes..."

"Carlos is amazing!"

The two commentators continued to marvel at Carlos's strength, and the audience was also buzzing with excitement. Suns fans were all impressed by Carlos's triple-double.

As for Nets fans, one by one, they were stunned, frightened by Carlos's fierce attacks driven by his intense offensive desire.

"Buzzer!"

Coming back from the timeout...

"Boom!"

Lopez, calm under pressure, called for the ball under the basket. Backing down against Frye, he made a strong move, jumping up for a powerful dunk, shaking the heavy rim and metal backboard.

"Oh!"

Nets fans were thrilled.

Seeing Lopez's violent dunk, they thought there was going to be a counterattack like the previous timeout, but this time, they were thinking too much.

Having already secured a triple-double and needing only 40 more points to complete the system task, Carlos activated his personal scoring mode in the second quarter.

In the second quarter...

The latter half...

Carlos went 5 for 6 with 10 points in a single quarter, demonstrating incredible efficiency.

At halftime...

Looking at his stats of 25 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists, Carlos couldn't help but pinch his chin with his thumb and forefinger, squinting with excitement. "Only 15 more points in the second half, and the system task will be completed. 'Peak Curry's three-point shooting,' it's a must tonight."

"Let's go..."

Just as he was thinking, Curry came over, patting him on the back, bringing his thoughts back. The two walked side by side towards the player tunnel.

Nash, who came over with a smile, said, "It's only half the game, and the lead is already 30 points. The Nets are really weak; this game is too easy."

"Hehe!"

Carter in front didn't turn around but laughed, "It's all thanks to Carlos and Curry playing well. Carlos's 25-point triple-double is simply insane, and Curry has 23 points in the first half, really accurate with those three-pointers. These two guys are tearing apart the Nets."

Hearing this...

Curry smiled modestly and said, "Where's that? Carlos passed well; I just took open shots. The shooting percentage is naturally much higher, or else I wouldn't have scored so many points."

Carlos, with his pupils shrinking, roared, "What? We're already ahead by 30 points?"

"Yes, Carlos, you played really well. A triple-double in half a game, this ability... is simply divine."

George, standing behind him, praised happily.

Just as Carlos's mind was solely focused on reaching 40 points, relentlessly attacking without paying any attention to the point difference between the two teams, he now received confirmation.

Carlos's face suddenly turned grim. "A 30-point lead means I'm highly likely to be substituted off in the second half, sitting on the bench without a chance to play?! No, no, I must stay on the court."

Back in the locker room, Carlos immediately found Gentry, fabricating a reason to continue playing in the second half. The coach, unable to resist Carlos's insistence, reluctantly agreed.

"Phew..."

Carlos finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Not long after, the second half began, and Carlos played even more aggressively, aiming to reach 40 points. However, just as he stepped onto the court, the Nets committed a turnover, missed a shot, and the Suns initiated a fast break.

"Swoosh!"

Curry with a three-pointer...

Frye with a three-pointer?!

Yes...

Apart from Carlos, center Frye also stepped out and made a three-pointer. The Suns' rhythm soared, building an enormous lead, and everyone was getting into the game.

Within the first minute, they went on a 6-0 run, quickly turning the 30-point lead into a pursuit of 40 points.

"Ah..."

Avery Johnson sighed in frustration and made a hand gesture, calling a timeout for the Nets.

Yes...

In just one minute of the second half, the Nets were forced to call a timeout, and during the timeout, they substituted in all their bench players. The 36-point astronomical difference led them to officially give up on the game.

Seeing this, Coach Gentry also friendly substituted in bench players, turning the game into garbage time. Carlos naturally went to the bench to rest.

"No way, Coach!"

Carlos was dumbfounded.

The second half had just started, and the game was already over. He hadn't even started his offensive onslaught yet. He didn't expect his teammates to be so aggressive, the point difference to be so large, and the scoring to happen so quickly.

How could this happen!

Sitting on the bench in a daze for quite some time, Carlos finally realized that facing a weak Nets team tonight, his offense was too aggressive.

Right now...

With a 36-point astronomical difference, and the opponent surrendering, even if he wanted to play, he couldn't. Otherwise, he would surely face criticism from the fans and even anger from the Nets.

Risking not winning the game, he would still be targeted. If something unexpected happened, like him getting injured, the cost would outweigh the benefits.

In light of this...

Carlos reluctantly accepted the reality of his overly aggressive offense and had no choice but to stay off the court. Of course, even if he wanted to play, Coach Gentry would not allow it.

Garbage time was underway.

In the commentary booth...

Mark Jackson laughed, "After defeating the Thunder in overtime, tonight, with a nearly 40-point difference, the Suns have officially entered the ranks of the Western powerhouses. And tonight...

Carlos, a center, only took half a game to achieve 25 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists, a 'triple-double' that is truly incredible. He is giving the center position a new definition!"

"Yes..."

Jon Barry nodded and looked at the stats on the table, excitedly saying, "Carlos achieved the first triple-double of the season tonight, and this triple-double broke a record that had been untouched for 55 years!"
