365 Su Hao enters the field with substitute players!
His teammates were also ignited by him; they all stood up, their eyes shining with determination.
They knew it was a tough battle, but they were willing to fight it to the very end.
“That’s right, we must believe in ourselves and the power of the team!” Dwyane Wade stood up and said to his teammates. His tone was firm and powerful, which was very inspiring.
"Let's keep fighting together!" Dwyane Wade waved his arms, encouraging his teammates.
His gaze revealed an indomitable spirit, giving people confidence that he could lead them to victory.
Although the Clippers' score had been narrowed considerably by their opponents, the players and coaches still appeared somewhat relaxed.
After all, they still have a double-digit lead, and their key players have had plenty of rest.
"Su Hao, the rest of the game depends on you. We'll rest on the bench for now!" Stephen Curry sat on the bench, gulping down the water handed to him by a staff member, while watching Su Hao.
A relaxed smile graced his face, clearly indicating his satisfaction with the current situation.
Eric Gordon and Rasul Butler, who just came off the court, will not be joining Su Hao on the field. They both need to rest on the sidelines for a while to recover their strength and condition.
Su Hao brought on the field with a group of substitutes including Paul George and Aldridge.
The timeout ended, and the game resumed. As soon as he entered the game, Su Hao received a pass from Paul George in the paint.
He caught the ball steadily, took his position, but did not rush to shoot.
Haslem and Chris Bosh immediately realized that Su Hao might launch an attack, and they quickly surrounded him to double-team him and prevent him from attacking the basket directly.
However, at this time, the Clippers had more than just Su Hao as an inside player.
Aldridge was already waiting for his chance on the other side of the basket.
Because both Haslem and Chris Bosh focused their efforts on defending Su Hao, Aldridge was left completely unguarded.
Su Hao keenly sensed this. Instead of forcing a breakthrough or shooting, he raised the ball high and threw it out forcefully, passing it accurately to Aldridge not far away.
The latter received the ball and jumped without hesitation, completing a spectacular dunk.
This goal perfectly demonstrated Su Hao's excellent vision and teamwork.
He was actually fully capable of scoring through his own strong attacks, but he understood that doing so would not only require more physical exertion, but also potentially lead to tighter defense from the opponent.
In contrast, passing the ball to an open teammate not only makes scoring easier and saves energy, but also enhances the team's overall fighting power.
This selfless act earned him more trust and reliance from his teammates, and brought the team greater hope of victory.
After switching sides, the Heat were on offense. LeBron James received a pass from Wade and, facing Su Hao who was coming to defend, he surprisingly passed the ball back to Wade without hesitation.
At this time, the Clippers were using a two-inside strategy, so Su Hao did not need to stay in the paint all the time and could move flexibly to various positions on the court to defend.
This led to the rare sight of him guarding LeBron James at the three-point line.
The ball returned to Wade's hands, and seeing that it was Su Hao defending James, Wade dared not let his guard down at all.
He quickly accelerated towards the paint, attempting to get past Aldridge, who came to help defend, to complete a short floater.
However, just as Wade jumped to shoot, he inadvertently glanced back.
This glance surprised him greatly, because he discovered that Su Hao had changed his defensive strategy, staying close behind him and ready to block his shot at any moment.
Startled, Wade quickly adjusted his posture in mid-air and passed the ball to LeBron James on the outside.
It turned out that when Wade broke into the paint, Su Hao had already keenly sensed his intention and quickly changed his defensive direction, closely following behind Wade, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.
This outstanding defensive awareness and agility surprised the Heat players.
After receiving the ball, LeBron James immediately faked a shot, fooling Paul George who was guarding him, and then jumped to shoot.
The basketball traced a beautiful arc in the air as it flew towards the basket.
However, the basketball missed the rim and bounced high. Chris Bosh was the first to rush up, grab the rebound, and try to put it back in.
A large hand suddenly appeared and swatted the ball away.
The hand belonged to Su Hao, who, with his astonishing explosiveness and jumping ability, successfully completed this spectacular block. The Heat players were stunned; they hadn't expected Su Hao's defensive capabilities to be so formidable.
The Clippers players cheered and applauded Su Hao's outstanding performance.
After landing, Su Hao glanced coldly at Chris Bosh lying on the ground, his eyes filled with disdain and provocation, as if declaring to him: "You dare to ignore my existence? You actually dare to try to dunk on my turf? You're really overestimating yourself!"
This incredible block completely disrupted the Heat's offensive rhythm, throwing them into chaos.
Commentator Miller exclaimed excitedly, "Su Hao's block was absolutely decisive in this game! The Heat players are clearly exhausted and can't keep up with the pace of the game!"
Barkley, standing nearby, chimed in with a smile, "Yeah, they're just so eager to win this game."
Even though they knew there was no way to turn the tide, they still insisted on keeping their key players on the field.
The Clippers, on the other hand, were playing back-to-back games and weren't exactly fatigued, but they still gave it their all, demonstrating formidable fighting spirit!
The Heat did not call a timeout because of the block, but instead chose to keep their key players, such as James and Wade, on the court.
With only three minutes left in the fourth quarter, their actions showed that deep down they still hoped to finish the entire game.
Possession returned to the Heat, and Chris Bosh quickly passed the ball to Dwyane Wade on the perimeter.
The latter, facing the defender, accelerated and turned around, then faced Su Hao, who came to help defend.
Stop abruptly and raise the arc of your shot.
Although the basketball evaded Su Hao's defense, unfortunately, the shot did not go in as he had hoped.
Wade's shot ended up being an airball.
The basketball flew out of bounds, and then the whistle blew.
The shot clock expired, and the Heat committed a 24-second violation, ending the possession.
