Chapter 616 The Sky-Covering Hat!
That alone is enough to make us very proud!
At this moment, the Lakers' head coach could not contain his surging excitement, and his face turned bright red.
As the brief timeout ended, the referee blew the whistle, signaling both teams to return to the field, and the game resumed. Just then, the focus of everyone's attention—Su Hao—reappeared on the court.
In an instant, the Lakers players, who had been in high spirits, became tense, especially Bynum, who had just played well, and was extremely nervous as if facing a formidable enemy.
He frowned and muttered under his breath, "Oh dear, just what I feared has come to pass! Su Hao has indeed made his appearance! Looks like my days are numbered!"
However, Su Hao seemed completely unaware of these subtle changes around him.
With a confident and composed smile, he waved frequently to the enthusiastic spectators in the stands, and then quickly disappeared into the intense competition.
In the first possession after the timeout, Kobe calmly caught the ball passed to him by his teammate beyond the three-point line.
Gordon closed in on him, but the experienced Kobe didn't rush to shoot. Instead, he quickly passed the ball to Gasol, who had been lurking in the right corner.
After receiving the ball, Gasol jumped and shot without hesitation. The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and flew straight towards the basket.
However, Paul George, who was responsible for guarding him, was no pushover either, and jumped high to try to block the shot.
Ultimately, due to interference from the opponent, Gasol's shot failed to hit the rim and bounced off the backboard with a "bang".
The basketball flew towards Su Hao, who leaped high, stretched out his arms, and easily caught the rebound.
Immediately afterwards, he quickly scanned the entire court and spotted Curry in a favorable position not far away. With a flick of his wrist, the basketball was passed to Curry with perfect accuracy, as if it had eyes.
After receiving the ball, Curry sprinted towards the opponent's frontcourt.
Along the way, he dodged left and right, skillfully avoiding the opposing players' encirclement and interception, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed to the opponent's basket.
However, Bynum and Gasol were guarding the basket at that moment.
Curry hesitated for a moment when facing the two men, but he quickly made a decision. He faked out Bynum with a back turn and passed the ball to Su Hao, who was following up in time.
After receiving the ball, Su Hao did not hesitate and suddenly exerted force with both legs, soaring into the air.
He stretched his body in the air, gripped the basketball tightly with both hands, and then slammed the ball into the basket with tremendous force!
"Kang Dang"
A loud bang shook the entire stadium, and the audience erupted in thunderous cheers and applause.
Poor Bynum watched helplessly as Su Hao soared to the basket for a dunk, completely stunned and without even the courage to reach out and stop him.
He knew that if he acted rashly, he would likely be penalized for a foul, which would only make the situation more unfavorable for his team.
With Su Hao's spectacular dunk, the Clippers' morale soared.
Keep in mind, this is only Su Hao's first round since his return!
Such efficient performance has had an immediate effect on the Clippers.
The score was initially tied, and the Lakers were overjoyed, thinking they had seen a glimmer of hope for victory.
But who could have imagined that Su Hao, after just one round on the court, would shatter their hopes with such a powerful dunk, making their chances even slimmer?
At this moment, the Lakers players looked at the imposing Su Hao on the court and couldn't help but feel a sense of dread: This guy is too strong, how are we supposed to deal with his sharp offense?
"Oh dear, the Lakers' performance is really disappointing!"
"We had such a great opportunity to extend our lead, but we missed it in the blink of an eye! If things continue like this, it will be quite difficult for us to regain the lead!" Miller said with a smile as he commented on the game from the commentary booth.
Barkley, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but burst into laughter: "That's right! Look at the situation on the court now, it won't be easy for the Lakers to tie the score!"
Unless Kobe can rediscover the incredible shooting touch he had in the first half of the third quarter, and Bynum also needs to successfully contain Su Hao under the basket, there's no chance of turning the tide!
At this moment, the match on the field was still in full swing.
Bynum calmly passed the ball to Fisher.
After receiving the ball, Fisher sprinted all the way to the frontcourt.
In the blink of an eye, he had already reached the vicinity of the opponent's penalty area. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately passed the ball to Kobe hand-to-hand.
After receiving the ball, Kobe quickly sprinted towards the basket.
Just as he was about to leap into the air and score a beautiful layup, Su Hao suddenly appeared from the side like a divine warrior descending from the heavens at the critical moment.
He leaped high into the air, stretching out his long arms, as if he were about to deliver a massive block to Kobe.
Fortunately, Kobe was extremely experienced. Faced with this sudden threat, he reacted quickly, making a clever turn and passing the ball back to Bynum.
After receiving the ball, the latter landed firmly on his feet and then leaped up, clearly intending to use the force of the jump to smash the ball into the basket.
But at that moment, Su Hao changed direction in mid-air and mercilessly delivered a solid and powerful block to the former!
With a loud "bang," the ball, as if struck by a tremendous impact, rapidly slipped from Bynum's hands.
At that moment, Rasul Butler, who was on the other side, reacted quickly, rushed towards the falling basketball, and successfully caught it.
In an instant, the entire stadium erupted in cheers. The audience was incredibly excited, and their shouts and thunderous applause mingled together, echoing throughout the stadium.
Without a doubt, Su Hao's defense just now was absolutely brilliant!
He not only demonstrated his extraordinary physical abilities to everyone, but also showed everyone his amazing defensive skills.
The Clippers seized the opportunity and quickly launched a counterattack.
Rasul Butler passed the ball to Gordon with perfect accuracy.
After receiving the ball, Gordon dribbled forward at breakneck speed, heading straight for the opponent's basket.
This attracted the Lakers' defenders to gather around him.
However, Gordon remained calm and, taking advantage of the fact that his opponents' attention was focused on him, suddenly made a clever change of direction.
