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

As the referee blew the whistle, both teams stopped and walked off the field to their respective benches to rest.

"Coach, why did you call another timeout? The first quarter is almost over!" Duncan shouted at Popovich, looking puzzled.

However, Popovich seemed to completely ignore Duncan's doubts. Without even turning his head, he quickly gathered Parker and other players around him, seemingly preparing to devise new tactical arrangements for the current situation.

"It looks like our chances of winning this match are slim! As long as Su Hao is on the field, we'll have a very hard time finding a winning opportunity! Does anyone have any good strategies to deal with our current predicament?"

Popovich said with a worried look on his face, while his gaze slowly swept over each player present.

"Coach, just now, I finally managed to reach an agreement with Su Hao to let him rest in the second quarter, so that I could have a precious quarter to perform and try to turn the tide. But I didn't expect that this suggestion would be so ruthlessly rejected by some of my teammates!" Parker complained with a wronged expression.

"Who on earth was it? Who was that incredibly stupid guy? Such a golden opportunity, and someone actually refused it! If Su Hao hadn't been here, with our team's strength, we would definitely have been able to catch up and even take the lead! Which idiot ruined everything?" Popovich roared furiously.

Hearing their head coach's furious outburst, the Spurs players didn't dare utter a sound.

Even Ginobili was stunned into silence, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

Seeing that none of his teammates dared to step forward and admit their mistakes, Popovich had a pretty good idea of ​​who was behind it.

But with things having come to this point, he was at a loss for what to do and could only helplessly choose to remain silent.

"It doesn't matter who made this mistake anymore, and there's no need to dwell on it. Since we've decided to bravely face this intense game, every player here must be fully focused and take it seriously. Remember, this is only the first quarter!" Popovich shouted.

At this moment, Jefferson lowered his head and muttered softly, "Coach, let's be honest, with our team's current strength, we're probably no match for the Clippers. That guy named Su Hao is just too good; his shooting alone can kill us. And no matter how we defend, we can't stop him at all!"

Upon hearing this, Popovich frowned slightly and replied, "So what if we can't beat them? Are we going to give up just because we're afraid of losing? If we want to win this year's championship trophy, we have to get over the Clippers, that mountain."

As soon as Popovich finished speaking, Ginobili stood up and said, "That's right, Coach! I refuse to believe it. Can the Clippers really be an invincible myth? As long as we work together and give it our all, we definitely have a chance to beat them!"

After saying this, Popovich slowly shifted his gaze to Duncan, who had remained silent, and stared intently at him before asking, "Tim, what are your thoughts on the current situation and the challenges we face?"

Duncan raised his head and said, "I think we can definitely beat the Clippers! As long as we all stick together!"

Duncan felt extremely guilty right after saying those words.

Because only he himself truly knows just how terrifying the Clippers are.

Especially in his direct confrontation with Su Hao, he suffered greatly. The feeling of being suppressed and unable to unleash his full potential still haunts him.

At this moment, the entire Spurs team is having a terrible headache because of Su Hao, their formidable opponent.

Su Hao alone is enough to have a huge impact on the course of the entire game.

It's as if the scales of victory will tip involuntarily toward the opponent as soon as he steps onto the court.

"Su Hao, let's widen the score gap as quickly as possible, so we can end the battle sooner and clock out easily!" David Lee said to Su Hao.

However, Curry shook his head and said, "You think the same thing every game! But this time we're facing a team like the Spurs, who are quite strong. We can't let our guard down; we have to play it safe and steady!"

Hearing Curry's words, Su Hao jokingly said to Curry, "Hey, why have you suddenly become so conservative? Are you worried about not being able to clock out early with me on the court?"

Before he could finish speaking, Curry immediately retorted, "Hey, that's not right! It's not like you guys could easily win this game without me playing!"

After saying that, Su Hao couldn't help but laugh out loud.

At that moment, his teammates standing to the side couldn't help but show awkward smiles.

The brief pause finally ended, and both teams returned to the field to resume the game.

Surprisingly, both sides maintained their previous lineups without making any adjustments.

When Parker saw that Su Hao did not stay on the sidelines to rest as expected, an ominous premonition immediately welled up in his heart.

Could it be that Su Hao really had no intention of throwing the game for his team?

This thought made Parker's mood even heavier.

At the start of the game, Jefferson quickly passed the ball to Parker.

In previous games, whenever Parker wasn't directly facing Su Hao's defense, his teammates would always pass the ball to him without hesitation.

And this time, the situation seems to be no different.

However, just as Parker was confidently preparing to receive the ball and attack, he suddenly discovered that the player closely guarding him was not Su Hao, but another defender, Gordon.

Gordon relentlessly stuck to Parker, giving him no space to shoot.

Parker tried to shake off Gordon's defense with agile movement, but Gordon remained a constant presence, making things very difficult for Parker. Fortunately, at a crucial moment, George Hill stepped up and set a brilliant screen for Parker.

With Hill's cover, Parker successfully evaded Gordon's clutches and gained a brief respite.

Just when Parker thought he had shaken off the defense and could easily shoot, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

Su Hao appeared in front of him without him even noticing, blocking all his shooting routes.

In that instant, Parker's first thought was that he had to pass the ball out as quickly as possible!

Without hesitation, he quickly passed the ball to Ginobili on the right.
