NBA: The Hulk's talent has female celebrities going wild.

Followed by.

The microphone was handed to Su Hao, who had been elected MVP and naturally had to give his acceptance speech.

"Cough cough..."

Su Hao cleared his throat and said, "First of all, I am very fortunate to have been elected MVP with a unanimous vote."

This is something I didn't expect.

I never expected so many people to recognize my value; it makes me feel very honored and happy.

Second.

As President David Stern said, basketball is not a sport for one particular group of people.

Anyone can achieve great success in this sport.

As long as you are willing to put in extraordinary effort, and as long as you have enough love for this sport.

Then you will definitely gain something, and may even reach the top!

Finally, I want to say that I will continue to work hard, play every game well, and not let my fans down!

Thank you everyone!!!

sound off.

Su Hao held the MVP trophy high.

Crackling.

The audience burst into applause.

He fully enjoyed the cheers and shouts from the tens of thousands of fans in the stadium.

This moment belongs to him alone.

Courtside.

Parker sighed, "Although Su Hao is a rookie, he is incredibly talented."

Such an honor is well-deserved.

"Yes."

Ginobili nodded noncommittally, "With such incredible dominance, it's no wonder he receives all sorts of honors."

He's really difficult to deal with!

"It's because they're powerful enough that they're a headache!"

Duncan looked at Su Hao with a furrowed brow. He wasn't sure if he could effectively limit Su Hao in the playoffs.

"Ha ha!"

Grandpa Popovich smiled and said, "Su Hao's prowess is something that the entire league can attest to."

He already possesses the ability of the "best center in the league," a monster surpassing even Dwight Howard.

However... basketball is a team game, not a sport where one person can solve problems alone.

The Clippers are individually exceptional, while the Lakers are a team where every member is strong.

I think the Lakers are the tougher team to beat. They won the championship last year and made it to the Finals the year before.

That's the power of team basketball.

Our Spurs champion the ultimate team basketball, and we also have the "GDP" trio.

We also have extensive playoff experience.

We are able to perform better in the playoffs than in the regular season.

We will definitely be the stronger team.

Take it one step at a time.

At the same time... we will implement the defensive strategy against Su Hao that we devised before the series.

We are confident that we can pull off an upset, defeat the Clippers who had a 71-11 regular season record, and advance to the Western Conference Finals!

Guys, I believe in you, you guys are the best!!!

The players all seemed somewhat wary of Su Hao.

Before the game, Coach Popovich promptly gave the team another pep talk.

The players had their fill of drinks.

"Don't worry, Coach. Although we acknowledge Su Hao's ability, we don't think we'll lose!"

"That's right.

Team basketball is the true essence!

"The Clippers are a team full of rookies, while our roster has won several championships."

We are definitely the stronger team!

"Spurs are the champions!"

"..."

The series hasn't even started yet, and the Spurs are not going to give up; they are full of confidence.

soon.

Amidst the deafening cheers from the stadium.

The main competition is about to begin!

The starting lineups for both teams began to take the field.

Los Angeles Clippers Starting Lineup: Point Guard: Curry, Shooting Guard: Gordon, Small Forward: Rasoul, Power Forward: David Lee, Center: Su Hao.

San Antonio Spurs Starting Lineup: Point Guard: Parker, Shooting Guard: George Hill, Small Forward: Richard Jefferson, Power Forward: Tim Duncan, Center: Antonio McDyess.

"Jumpball!"

A contest for the ball between Su Hao and Duncan.

Duncan is very talented.

But compared to Su Hao, they were still insignificant.

"Snapped!"

Su Hao easily lobbed the basketball, which Rasul caught and passed to Curry for the Clippers' first offensive play in Game 1 of the conference semifinals.

Middle of the arc.

Curry passed a base to Su Hao in the low post on the left, allowing him to initiate the attack.

The player guarding him was: "The Big Fundamental" Tim Duncan.

Players who are matched up against Duncan never seem to perform at their best.

This made Spurs fans feel very reassured.

Clippers fans are more at ease, as giving Su Hao a one-on-one opportunity is tantamount to giving away points.

"boom!"

No need for anything fancy.

Su Hao immediately engaged Duncan in direct confrontation, and Duncan, from the very beginning, tensed up with all his might, enduring Su Hao's attacks head-on.

Don't let Duncan's appearance fool you; he may not look that strong.

But in reality, Duncan was very strong, with a long wingspan, amazing athleticism and jumping ability, etc.

His overall qualities.

This makes his defensive ability quite strong.

However... Su Hao is even more domineering. In terms of overall talent, Su Hao completely outclasses Duncan.

We withstood the confrontation.

In the second, even stronger confrontation with Su Hao, even someone as strong as Duncan couldn't keep up and was forced to retreat uncontrollably.

Su Hao drives to the basket.

Even though Duncan caught up in time and jumped up to contest the ball with his long arms, Duncan still managed to get the ball in.

It's completely useless.

The moment Su Hao jumped, Duncan, who jumped back, had no chance.

"boom!"

Su Hao dunked over Duncan.

The first offensive play saw him dunk over the Spurs' strongest player, which was somewhat demoralizing.

Clippers 2:0 Spurs.

Transition of possession.

Parker pushed forward, Curry's defense closed in, and Parker drove and passed to Jordan Hill on the right high post.

Richard Jefferson is shifting to the bottom right corner.

There is a chance.

However... Rasul is chasing and can try to shoot, but the opportunity isn't great.

For the Spurs, who play team basketball, there's no rush to attack.

A high lob pass was given to Duncan on the right side of the basket, and Parker and Jordan Hill started a frantic cross-court movement.

They plan to use Duncan's strong presence in the paint to draw the defense away from the backcourt.

They found the best offensive opportunities by running on the perimeter.

But no matter how they ran, they found that the opportunities were not good, and Clippers players were always following them.

"What's the meaning?!"

Parker was puzzled. "Regardless of Duncan, aren't you afraid he'll indiscriminately overpower and score in the paint?!"

"Humph!"

McDyess scoffed, "Even if Su Hao's defensive ability is very strong, even if he is a DPOY-level player."

But he was facing a three-time Finals MVP, a rookie number one draft pick with no experience. How could he possibly stop Duncan?!

There was no one to provide support.

Duncan has a chance to beat Su Hao one-on-one.

After confirming that his teammates had no chance, Duncan chose to go one-on-one against Su Hao.

"Bang bang bang!"

First, there was a series of physical confrontations.

But he couldn't push Su Hao away, but he wasn't in a hurry at all. After another confrontation, he flipped over to face the frame, ready to hook his arm.

but.

The long arm that Su Hao had been holding close to was causing too much interference.

Duncan knew.

If I force my way in, my shot will definitely be blocked!

He raised the ball again and made several feints, trying to shake off Su Hao's balance, but Su Hao still wouldn't take the hit.

Or perhaps he didn't need to jump at all.

That alone is enough to put immense defensive pressure on Duncan.

"This guy... he's completely impervious to reason!"

Duncan looked like he had a headache.

Seeing that there was little time left for his attack, he forced his way through Su Hao's defense and launched a hook shot.

"Ok?"

Su Hao narrowed his eyes. "I didn't fall for their fakes, so why are they forcing a shot on me like that?!"

sound off.

Su Hao pounced and swatted the ball away just as Duncan's hook shot was about to take off!
