538 Su Hao, unstoppable!
538 Su Hao, unstoppable!
Haha! Harden is such a scoundrel, using such dirty tricks as soon as he steps onto the court.
Oh dear, this has really put Gordon in a bad position. Look at Gordon's dejected look, he'll probably be feeling down for a long time!
However, Gordon can't be fooled like that. He needs to be more careful on defense next time and can't make such a basic mistake again!
Harden stood steadily at the free-throw line, a hint of smugness in his eyes, and then he threw the ball with force, which landed steadily in the basket.
With both free throws going in, the score difference instantly reached 6 points, and the atmosphere on the court became tense.
David Lee carefully passed the ball to Curry.
Curry's skillful ball-handling technique was on full display after receiving the ball.
Like a wild horse, he dribbled the ball quickly up the court, his speed catching Harden off guard.
Despite Harden's tight defense, Curry remained calm and collected, observing the situation on the court before decisively passing the ball to Gordon, who was closest to him.
However, when Gordon received the ball, he seemed to be stunned, with a look of confusion on his face.
Perhaps he was still dazed by Harden's feint, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
In the end, he opted for a conservative approach, lobbing the ball directly to Su Hao under the basket.
This move was undoubtedly the best option, as the ball would always end up in Su Hao's hands whenever the team encountered difficulties.
He will carry out the attack.
"Beware!"
The moment Su Hao received the ball, Thunder head coach Brooks, who was not far away, felt a sudden tightness in his heart. He seemed to have foreseen what was about to happen and hurriedly shouted for his players to go up and stop him.
Although Perkins clearly heard the head coach's shout, he seemed to be frozen in place, merely raising his hands symbolically without actually trying to stop Su Hao's attack.
Su Hao, however, paid no heed to any of that. His eyes gleamed with determination as he pushed off with both feet, launching himself forward like a cannonball and ending the attack with a powerful slam dunk.
The powerful impact sounded as if it would shatter the entire stadium.
The audience erupted in cheers, as if applauding Su Hao's brilliant performance.
Meanwhile, Perkins, who was responsible for defending Su Hao under the basket, could only helplessly watch Su Hao display his strength to the fullest, feeling full of resentment.
"How did you defend? You just stood there motionless, like a statue. Is that what you call defense?"
Coach Brooks was on the sidelines, pacing anxiously like a cat on a hot tin roof, his furious expression seeming to set the entire arena ablaze.
Actually, Perkins also wanted to go all out to defend Su Hao.
Given his usual strength, completing such an almost impossible defensive task would indeed be an impossible task. Every time he looked at Su Hao, who was even taller and stronger than him, the last bit of confidence in his heart would vanish instantly. He simply didn't have enough confidence to defend against Su Hao single-handedly.
At that moment, Ibaka quickly and accurately passed the ball to Harden, who then dribbled it to the frontcourt like lightning.
Facing Gordon's tight defense.
This time, in order to avoid being tricked by Harden in that same clever way again.
Gordon had to make a difficult decision; he subconsciously opened up his defensive distance from Harden by about a meter, as if to create an excellent shooting opportunity for Harden.
A shooting opportunity presented itself, and Harden was not one to miss it. A determined glint flashed in his eyes, and he unhesitatingly launched a three-pointer.
However, fate seemed to play a little joke on Harden.
The basketball traced a beautiful arc in the air, but failed to hit the sacred hoop. Instead, it bounced off the rim with a dull thud.
As expected, Su Hao once again secured the rebound.
After successfully securing the precious rebound.
Su Hao displayed his amazing passing skills. With a graceful long flick, as if casting some kind of mysterious magic, he accurately passed the ball to Rasul Butler, who was already quietly positioned under the opponent's basket.
After receiving Su Hao's brilliant long pass, Rasul Butler's eyes lit up as he faced the empty basket.
He slightly adjusted his posture, and then charged toward the basket with unstoppable force.
With a gentle lift of Narasuel Butler's small hand, the basketball flew steadily and easily into the basket.
This drew gasps from the spectators on the sidelines.
Su Hao's long pass was truly exceptional; its accuracy was simply superb, as if the ball had been magically guided straight to the target.
"Get the ball to Durant right away!"
The Thunder's head coach on the sidelines roared like an angry lion.
Upon receiving the ball, Westbrook's eyes flashed with determination. He knew the team's current situation and immediately and without hesitation, chose to pass the ball to Durant.
When the ball came into Durant's hands.
The Clippers seemed to have anticipated this, having already meticulously planned a tight defensive strategy. They were clearly trying to double-team Durant, attempting to force other Thunder players to shoot and disrupt the Thunder's offensive rhythm.
Faced with this sudden double-team, Durant showed a slight sense of helplessness, but he did not panic. Instead, he calmly considered how to deal with it.
However, he was unable to shake off his opponent's entanglement for a time, as if he were trapped in a predicament from which he could not escape.
Left with no other choice, he had to make another difficult decision and pass the ball to Harden.
Harden looked at Gordon's impenetrable defense and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Clearly, it was no longer realistic to try to draw fouls like before.
The three-pointer that was just shot streaked across the sky like a shooting star, but ultimately failed to hit the rim, bouncing off the hoop.
This choice was undoubtedly crucial for him, as every shot could potentially influence the course of the entire game.
The plan to drive to the basket also became less appealing at this point.
If you really attack the basket at this moment, you're almost guaranteed to get blocked without mercy.
In that brief moment of hesitation, Harden ultimately made the resolute decision to abandon the seemingly more certain inside drive and instead opted for a decisive shot from the perimeter.
