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

This time, Ginobili didn't choose to attack from close to the basket as usual, but instead resolutely opted for a mid-range shot.

He knew that although this choice required a lot of physical strength, it could save energy more effectively.

After all, the second quarter had only just begun, and if too much energy was used up too early, the rest of the game would become extremely difficult. Moreover, choosing mid-range shots meant higher risks and challenges, but Ginobili firmly believed in his abilities and was confident that he could hit the target at crucial moments.

However, this shot still missed the basket.

Su Hao easily snatched the rebound from over Duncan's head once again.

"How can we fight this?"

The Spurs' hottest player missed several shots in a row!

Even Duncan, who has always performed very consistently, had no advantage when facing Su Hao, and even grabbing a rebound was a luxury for him.

This situation is not optimistic for the Spurs.

Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich stood on the sidelines with a grim expression.

After securing the rebound, Su Hao passed the ball to Curry in the center circle.

He then quickly sprinted to the frontcourt and received the basketball from Curry at the top of the arc, handing it off to him.

A center who is 2.3 meters tall is actually attacking from the outside with the ball!

Even though Su Hao had done the same thing before, every time he played like this, everyone watching the game and his opponents on the court were shocked.

George Hill reacted immediately.

He tried to stop Su Hao, but Su Hao's ball control skills were excellent.

The basketball seemed to be an extension of his hand; no matter how hard George Hill tried, he couldn't cut the ball.

Two steps away from the basket, Duncan had already positioned himself, ready to use his strong body to block Su Hao's attack.

Facing Duncan's defense, Su Hao displayed excellent skills and agility. He quickly made a back turn, successfully bypassing Duncan's body and rushing directly towards the basket.

After realizing he had been beaten, Duncan immediately turned around and tried to block Su Hao from behind, but Su Hao was too fast, and Duncan didn't have time to completely block his path.

Su Hao jumped without hesitation, ready to dunk.

Despite Duncan's best efforts to jump and place his palm on the basketball, Su Hao's strength was too great, and he still managed to forcefully dunk the ball into the basket.

The audience erupted in cheers, applauding Su Hao's brilliant performance.

At that moment, the entire stadium was captivated by his domineering presence.

His teammates rushed over to high-five Su Hao in celebration, their faces beaming with pride and excitement.

The opponents, especially Duncan, seemed somewhat frustrated. He shook his head helplessly, expressing his admiration for Su Hao's strength.

"I'm impressed. Even in my prime, I might not have been able to defend that shot! It seems I have to admit I'm getting old!" Duncan said to Su Hao with a helpless expression.

Su Hao had just completed a spectacular dunk when he landed and heard Duncan's words. He smiled and replied, "Oh no, you should have been able to guard me in your prime! But you definitely can't now!"

Given Su Hao's current form and ability, even against a prime Duncan, he is still confident in breaking through the defense and scoring.

The atmosphere on the field was tense, but the game continued.

George Hill was preparing to inbound the ball when Popovich on the sidelines could no longer contain his anxiety and decisively asked the referee for a timeout.

Commentator Yang Yi exclaimed, "Popovich can't hold back anymore! Su Hao started the second quarter with a mini-run, and from a four-point deficit, he's about to widen the gap!"

"Indeed, the Spurs were incredibly lucky in the first quarter, making a lot of shots. But in the second quarter, Ginobili's touch disappeared. In contrast, the Clippers' Su Hao remained unstoppable on offense, so the score should have widened," Su explained.

His eyes were full of anticipation, as if he could already see how the game would unfold.

Coach Zhang added with a smile, "Yes, it all depends on what good tactics Popovich will come up with after this timeout. If this timeout can't solve the current scoring slump, then the Spurs might really be close to losing the game. After all, the situation in basketball games changes very quickly, and a small detail can change the entire outcome of the game."

His tone carried a hint of worry, but more so, it was filled with anticipation and excitement for the competition.

When the Spurs players returned to the court, Popovich unusually did not take out his clipboard.

Instead, he gathered all the players together and began to do some ideological work with them.

"Kids, we can't let our opponents' rhythm get out of control. We need to stick to our own style of play! Don't let their strength in the paint stop you from attacking! I already told you to attack the paint in the first quarter, so why didn't you do it?" Popovich looked around at his players and continued, "Believe in your abilities and play the way we always do."

He patted his teammates on the shoulder, "Now, let's unite as one and play our style!"

The players were greatly encouraged and responded in unison, "Go for it!"

However, Duncan, standing to the side, looked worried.

"Tim, is there anything you want to add?" Popovich looked at Duncan beside him.

After a moment of contemplation, Duncan said, "Coach, I think we need to not only attack the paint, but also strengthen our defense on the perimeter. Their outside shooters are very accurate, and if we don't guard them, they will cause us a lot of trouble."

Popovich nodded, agreeing with Duncan. "You're right, Tim. We can't afford to neglect one area for the other; we need to cover both the inside and outside. Listen up, everyone: on offense, keep attacking the paint aggressively, but also remember to get back on defense. On defense, keep a close eye on their outside shooters!"

The team members nodded to show that they understood.

What Duncan really meant was that he simply couldn't defend the paint.

During the Clippers' timeout, head coach Mike Dunleavy still hasn't made any tactical arrangements.

The pause ends.

Both teams' players returned to the field, and neither side made any substitutions.

At the start of the game, Tony Parker passed the ball to Ginobili.

After receiving the ball, the latter resolutely chose to attack the inside.

After getting past defender Rasul Butler, he continued to drive towards the basket.

Su Hao had been waiting under the basket for a long time.

Duncan, standing nearby, tried his best to screen for Ginobili's shot.

Ginobili came to the basket, intending to dunk over Su Hao.
