383 Su Hao was appointed to a critical mission!
Curry and the other key players were just about to take off their practice clothes and get back on the court to continue the game.
However, the head coach stopped him.
The head coach waved his hand, signaling them not to go on the field.
Curry asked, puzzled, "Coach? What do you mean? We're behind right now! And there's only one minute left in the game!"
The head coach calmly replied, "You guys don't need to go on, just bring on Su Hao!"
Upon hearing this, Curry and the others were even more bewildered, their minds filled with doubt.
At this moment, Su Hao, who was standing to the side, also showed a helpless expression on his face.
He thought to himself that if he couldn't turn the game around in the last minute, he might have to take the blame for the loss for the head coach.
Thinking about it this way, he felt that he had really lost out.
The game resumed as the whistle blew.
Su Hao entered the field with four substitute players, their eyes revealing determination and resolve.
However, the Spurs kept their roster unchanged and made no adjustments.
Seeing Su Hao enter the game, Ginobili revealed a disdainful smile and said sarcastically, "Su Hao actually came out! Does he think he can change the course of the game all by himself?"
Clearly, Ginobili did not believe that Su Hao could turn the tide in such a short time.
But Su Hao was not affected by the outside world. He took a deep breath and focused on the game.
He knew that only by giving it his all could he prove his abilities.
"Don't you believe me? He really has that ability! Let's see if our teammates can hold on for this last minute!" Duncan looked a little nervous.
With the game entering its final minute, the score remained close, and the atmosphere at the stadium was extremely tense.
At this moment, the Clippers launched an offensive possession. Su Hao received a pass from Paul George, quickly cut to the basket, and created a one-on-one opportunity.
Su Hao faced the defender with focused and determined eyes.
He dribbled past his opponent with ease, using his agile footwork and excellent physical attributes to drive straight to the basket.
The opposing center rushed to help defend, but Su Hao skillfully made a layup in mid-air, avoiding the block, and then steadily sent the ball into the basket.
And it drew a defensive foul from the opponent!
The entire process was as natural as flowing water, showcasing Su Hao's outstanding personal abilities.
The audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers, stunned by Su Hao's brilliant performance.
His teammates rushed over to give him high-fives in celebration, which greatly boosted their morale.
The referee blew his whistle, ruling that the opponent had committed a foul, and Su Hao was awarded a penalty.
Su Hao took a deep breath, calmed himself, and prepared to shoot the free throw.
He patted the basketball, his eyes fixed on the hoop, then jumped and shot. The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and swished through the net.
The spectators on the sidelines cheered and jumped for joy, encouraging Su Hao.
Su Hao's attack directly helped the team close the gap to three points.
And they are now only two points behind the opponent.
If we can defend this round, we have a real chance to overtake them in the next round.
The Spurs players on the sidelines were also stunned by Su Hao's performance.
"I told you he's capable!" Curry shouted excitedly.
"He's only been on the court for a few seconds and he's already completed a three-point play! If we don't score this possession, he might score again next possession!" Duncan said helplessly, "This guy is indeed quite good, but is it really necessary to exaggerate like this?"
The Clippers, on the other hand, narrowed the gap to three points because Su Hao had just scored a basket and made the free throw.
Curry and his teammates all stood up from the bench and applauded the crowd in celebration.
"Su Hao is a truly trustworthy teammate! He's already scored three points in just a few seconds! We'll definitely be able to defend this possession," Gordon laughed.
Popovich called a timeout immediately after Su Hao took the free throw.
They then substituted in their key players.
It seems he still doesn't quite believe in the abilities of his substitute players.
After all, they had never actually fought Su Hao.
Seeing that the Spurs were about to bring in their starters, Curry immediately volunteered to the head coach: "Coach, they're going to bring in their starters, should we?"
"Do whatever you want. As long as Su Hao is there, you can switch your lineups as you like!" Mike Dunleavy appeared very calm.
Seeing the coach's response, Curry and the other key players didn't hold back either.
They immediately took off their training clothes and were ready to go on the court.
The situation on the field changed so quickly that it caught everyone off guard.
Even Paul George on the bench stared wide-eyed at his teammates with a look of astonishment.
He muttered to himself, "They're actually going to go on stage..."
At this moment, Su Hao was communicating with Curry, David Lee, and others.
He patted Curry on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Hey guys, don't forget to pass me the ball!"
Curry and David Lee exchanged a glance and nodded in understanding.
David Lee replied firmly, "Don't worry, we'll definitely get the ball to you. We all believe you can score that winning goal!"
After saying that, David Lee gave a confident smile.
Gordon chimed in, "Yes, Su Hao, we all believe in you!" His eyes revealed unwavering conviction.
The brief timeout quickly passed, and players from both sides began to return to the field.
The audience's enthusiasm was instantly ignited, and cheers rose and fell.
"Wow! What's going on? Both teams have actually brought back their key players at this crucial moment. This is really unexpected!" Commentator Barkley couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"It seems the Clippers were too careless; they clearly didn't anticipate the Spurs would close the gap with their bench players." Another commentator, Miller, nodded in agreement, adding, "That's right, this game was full of surprises and unexpected twists. Who would have thought the Spurs' bench players would perform so well and successfully narrow the gap? Now, both teams' starters are back on the court; let's wait and see who wins!"
At the start of the game, Tony Parker received a pass from his teammate and kept looking for opportunities on the perimeter.
They are currently leading by two points.
They need to make sure they don't make any mistakes during this attacking opportunity, and even if they don't score, they should at least run out of attacking time.
Seeing that his teammates didn't have any good opportunities to receive the ball, Tony Parker could only wander around on the perimeter.
With two seconds left on the shot clock, he unleashed a three-pointer over Curry.
The basketball went wide of the rim.
Fortunately, the basketball cricket ball landed right on Duncan's head.
