After stealing the ball, Curry charged forward like a cheetah.

He was incredibly fast, like a bolt of lightning streaking across the court.

However, Wade and Chalmers are by no means ordinary players.

They reacted quickly, flanking Curry from both sides like hungry wolves.

The goal is clear—we absolutely cannot let Curry easily take that terrifying three-pointer!

Faced with such tight defense, Curry tried to dodge left and right, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity to shoot.

Time ticked away, and with the shot clock ticking down, Curry had no choice but to make a decision, passing the ball to Gordon, who was closest to him.

The moment Gordon received the ball, the image of his teammate Su Hao immediately flashed into his mind.

Because he knew that Su Hao had absolute dominance under the basket.

The thought had barely crossed his mind when Gordon prepared to pass the ball to Su Hao without hesitation.

Just then, James realized Gordon's intention and quickly moved forward, sticking close to Gordon and launching a tight defense.

Gordon remained calm and composed, and suddenly delivered a clever crossover pass. The basketball, like a phantom, passed between James's legs and flew straight towards Su Hao under the basket.

The moment James saw the basketball pass between his legs, he was startled and instinctively looked back. At that moment, Su Hao had already caught the ball steadily and held it high above his head.

His eyes were firm and sharp, full of confidence and domineering presence.

Haslem, standing in front of Su Hao, bravely took a step forward, raising his hands to try and block Su Hao's offensive path. However, just when everyone thought Su Hao would leap high and complete a spectacular dunk with overwhelming power...

Something unexpected happened—Su Hao stood still, as if taking a leisurely stroll, and gently tossed the basketball in his hand toward the basket.

Keep in mind that at that moment, the distance between him and the basket was only half a meter.

At such a close distance, an ordinary person might be able to easily put the ball into the basket, but for a professional player, the difficulty of such a shot is negligible.

For Su Hao, whose strength is exceptional, it was as easy as taking candy from a baby.

Sure enough, the basketball seemed to be under a spell, drawing a beautiful arc in the air before landing steadily in the basket.

Such an effortless shooting motion made Haslem, who was originally full of confidence and wanted to defend Su Hao head-on, suddenly anxious and scratching his head.

"Oh dear, how is this possibly possible to defend against?" he muttered to himself, scratching his head repeatedly, his heart filled with helplessness and frustration.

It must be said that Su Hao's performance in this match was truly outstanding. Every attack he made was like entering an empty field, leaving his opponents helpless.

At this moment, the entire Christmas game seemed to have become his personal stage, with all the other players relegated to supporting roles.

On the other side, Haslem quickly picked up the basketball and passed it to his teammate James.

After receiving the ball, James sprinted forward at lightning speed.

When he reached the right position, he did not hesitate to pass the ball to Wade.

After receiving the ball, Wade also displayed excellent ball-handling skills. He skillfully dribbled the ball all the way to a spot more than two meters away from the basket.

Immediately after, he made a slight adjustment and then decisively shot a beautiful bank shot for two points.

"Swish!" With a crisp sound of the basketball going through the net, it swished through the hoop.

The audience couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "Wow! Wade's bank shot technique is amazing!"

Indeed, Wade's bank shot has always been quite threatening, and if he can maintain this touch, it will undoubtedly be a great help to the team.

Unfortunately, relying solely on Wade's sporadic two-point shots, it will likely be difficult to gain an advantage against the powerful Clippers.

After all, the Clippers are a strong team with excellent teamwork, and they are not so easy to defeat.

"Oh dear, the Heat's offense is terrible! Look at James, he can't unleash his full potential and advantages at all."

If things continue like this, this match is practically doomed!

"I really hope he can quickly come up with a way to solve these thorny problems facing the team!" Yang Yi said anxiously, frowning.

"Don't rush, the competition is still a long way off."

Now we'll see if the Heat can keep the score close. If they can't stay calm and focused like the Thunder and avoid losing their way, then they're really out of luck!" Su Qun said with a smile, seemingly relaxed and joking.

"Actually, the Heat's current situation is not much different from the Thunder's."

They consistently struggled to break through in the paint, unable to score and riddled with defensive holes. The root cause was the lack of a dominant, powerful inside player like Su Hao!

It's worth noting that the Heat made almost no major moves to strengthen their frontcourt this summer!

Even with the so-called "Big Three" combination, they are by no means invincible or unstoppable! Coach Zhang shook his head with a smile as he analyzed.

This situation was already evident in previous encounters between the two teams.

Unfortunately, the Heat at that time did not fully realize the severity of the problem.

However, their general manager, Pat Riley, has been actively searching for an excellent center for the team.

Unfortunately, this stingy general manager was only willing to use veterans' minimum salaries to sign some past-their-prime players.

Hoping to save a team by players who are past their prime is nothing short of wishful thinking.

These players may have had their glory days, but their form has declined significantly, with both their skills and physical fitness diminishing.

In the intense competition, they find it difficult to compete with young and energetic opponents.

Moreover, these aging players often have injury risks, and if they get injured at crucial moments, the team will be in an even more difficult situation. The general manager's approach will not only fail to improve the team's strength, but may actually plunge it into a deeper predicament.

It's unrealistic for the Heat to win this game right now.

Unless a miracle happens on the field.

David Lee passed the ball to Curry, who dribbled it up the court and was then double-teamed by two Heat players.

It seems the Heat really want to shut down Curry.

They'd rather be beaten to death by Su Hao than have Curry get his outside shots going!
