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

The reality is harsh; they are indeed close to losing by thirty points.

Giving up the competition now might not be such a bad thing.

After all, the newly formed team needs time to gel, and wins and losses are normal.

Moreover, losing to the defending champion Clippers is not shameful.

Using reserve players now serves two purposes: firstly, it allows them to develop their own bench players, and secondly, the Clippers certainly won't continue using their starters.

Therefore, the score gap is unlikely to continue to widen.

However, the Heat's head coach still wanted to try again.

Perhaps he wanted James, Wade, and Bosh to try out some teamwork.

We hope they can put on a great performance.

"We've already taken such a big lead, the Heat probably won't bring back their starters after this timeout, right?" Gordon said with a smile.

His words elicited a burst of laughter from his teammates.

Everyone felt that the Heat had no hope, so they should bring in the substitutes sooner to save the starters' energy.

However, the Heat's head coach did not do that; he insisted on keeping James, Wade, and Bosh on the court.

"Has the coach gone mad? We've already lost badly enough, why are you making the key players keep playing?" a fan asked, puzzled.

"Maybe the coach has some secret weapon up his sleeve," another fan speculated.

"I think the coach is unwilling to give up and wants James and the others to try again," an older fan analyzed.

Regardless, the Heat's head coach decided to keep James, Wade, and Bosh on the court, giving them a chance to prove themselves.

Although they have suffered a crushing defeat, they cannot give up easily as long as there is even a glimmer of hope.

"Whether they play or not, the outcome of the game will be pretty much the same, won't it? Do they really think they can turn the game around with just one quarter? That's wishful thinking!" David Lee said.

He looked at the situation on the field and felt full of confidence in the team.

"I don't know if they'll be in the starting lineup, so I'll stay out for now and give you guys a chance to prove yourselves!" With that, Su Hao put on his training uniform and plopped down on the bench. He rested his chin on his hands, his eyes slightly closed, as if he already knew the outcome of the game.

"No way! If you don't go in, they'll definitely catch up!" Rasul Butler exclaimed.

He looked at Su Hao nervously, a hint of worry in his eyes.

"We're leading by so much, are we not allowed to catch up? Besides, are you not going to score?" Su Hao replied calmly, his eyes narrowed.

His tone carried a hint of disdain and confidence.

Curry walked up to Su Hao and said with a smile, "Then you can rest on the sidelines! Let me practice my three-pointers in the fourth quarter!" It seems that Curry has his own little scheme; he actually wants to use an official game to hone his three-point shooting skills.

Su Hao had already closed his eyes and was lying quietly in his seat.

His breathing was steady, as if he were isolated from the surrounding noise.

As the referee blew his whistle, the timeout ended and the game resumed. Both teams returned to the field.

As expected, the Heat did not replace their key players.

LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, among others, returned to the court.

The Clippers, however, made some personnel adjustments. They did not let Su Hao play, but instead sent Aldridge to replace him.

In addition, David Lee was substituted and replaced by Paul George.

When the Heat players saw that the Clippers hadn't sent Su Hao, a secret thrill welled up inside them.

After all, Su Hao had performed exceptionally well in previous games, putting immense pressure on the Heat.

With him off the court, the Heat naturally feel much more relaxed.

The Heat inbound the ball. Wade receives it, quickly breaks through the defense, and scores a layup.

"Beautiful!" the audience cheered.

The Clippers' offense seemed somewhat lackluster, with Aldridge attempting to force his way into the paint but encountering tight defense from the opponent.

On the other hand, the Heat's James and Wade frequently combined to attack the basket, gradually narrowing the score gap.

Seeing this, Paul George immediately signaled to his teammates to set a screen, and he quickly drove into the paint with the ball.

Facing Heat center Haslem, he leaped high, ready to unleash a powerful dunk.

However, the Heat's center wouldn't let him succeed so easily. He jumped up to block the shot and successfully prevented George from dunking.

The ball bounced off the rim after being interfered with.

However, Clippers player Rasul Butler grabbed the rebound and, with no one guarding him, leaped high and slammed the ball into the basket.

At this point, there were only 10 seconds left in the third quarter.

The Heat quickly organized a final offensive play.

LeBron James had the ball on the perimeter, facing Paul George's defense. He didn't choose to shoot immediately, but instead dribbled the ball on the perimeter while keeping an eye on the clock.

It seems he's prepared to personally deliver the final blow.

Paul George knew LeBron James's intentions perfectly well, and he kept a close eye on James, not daring to relax for a moment.

With two seconds left on the timer, LeBron James finally took the shot.

He hit a buzzer-beating three-pointer over Paul George's defense.

The basketball traced a beautiful arc in the air and swished through the net.

Goal! James successfully sank the buzzer-beating three-pointer, and the Heat fans in the arena erupted in a brief but enthusiastic cheer.

Wade, Bosh, and other teammates also came up to James to give him high-fives, congratulating and encouraging him.

With James hitting that buzzer-beating three-pointer, the third quarter officially came to an end.

However, despite James' outstanding performance, the score difference between the two sides remained huge, with the Pacers leading the Heat by a large margin.

"Damn it, how could I let him hit that buzzer-beating three-pointer over me!" Paul George walked back to the bench, looking dejected, filled with self-blame and frustration.

"It's okay, it's just a three-pointer. They're still a long way from victory! This is only your first game in your first season in the NBA, don't rush it!" Teammate Gordon walked over to him, patted him on the shoulder, and gently comforted him.

Paul George nodded, but a hint of resentment still lingered on his face.

He knew he needed to better control his emotions and not let the opponent's goals affect his mentality.

Back on the bench, Coach Spoelstra gathered the Heat players together again.

He held a tactics board in his hand and kept gesturing, explaining the upcoming tactical arrangements to the team members.

"LeBron, can you keep going in the fourth quarter?" Spoelstra asked with concern.

Faced with the head coach's question, James hesitated slightly before answering firmly, "Yes!"

"I can play too! I don't think the Clippers will play Su Hao yet, so let's take this opportunity to close the gap!" Wade chimed in.
