0+8 turnovers in 10 of three-pointers! Jokic set a shameful record, SGA stealth, League 1 s overtime crash
NBA playoffs are underway, and the Oscar Thunder will go to challenge the Denver Nuggets away. In the game, the Thunder took the lead as the go, and the Nuggets relied on Westbrook's brave performance to overtake. Then, the two teams fell into a tug-of-war, with the scores alternately leading, and the Thunder led by 5 points at the end of the half. After the change of sides, the two teams still played hard to solve, and the scores alternated and led the way many times. This situation continued until the decisive moment. Gordon hit a key three-pointer and the Nuggets dragged the game into overtime. In overtime, the Nuggets scored an 11-2 offensive to defeat the Thunder. In the end, the Nuggets defeated the Thunder 113-104, rewriting the series score to 2-1.
The Nuggets won the home advantage, which is a commendation. Although the Thunder's counterattack is late, especially in G2. The Thunder defended the No. 1 throne in the league with a 43-point victory. In this game, facing the fierce Thunder, the Nuggets completely lost the inside, lost 5 rebounds 49-54, lost 13 rebounds 5-18, and scored 32-56 in the inside and were completely defeated by the opponent. After the Thunder caught the rebound and the Nuggets' mistakes, they fought back frantically, scoring fast breaks (14-7) and scoring using mistakes (20-16) also had all the advantages, with speed and passion. However, the magic of the Denver Plateau's home court is still there. The Thunder completely missed the accuracy outside the three-point line, making only 9 of 35 shots, and hitting a shooting percentage of only 25.7%. In contrast, the Nuggets used their home court momentum to score 16 three-pointers with a shooting percentage of 40%!
This focus battle is a showdown between Jokic and SGA. Both teams carefully arranged on the defensive end, and to capture the thief first! The Thunder's two towers defended the penalty area to force Jokic to make a long-range shot. Jokic played the most struggling playoff game of his career. He played in 43 minutes, made only 8 of 25 shots, 0 of 10 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws, scoring 20 points + 16 rebounds + 6 assists + 2 steals + 2 blocks, and 8 turnovers, creating 2 shameful records. According to statistics, in the history of the playoffs, only three players scored more than Jokic when they scored three-pointers and zero goals, namely Huazi (0 of 11), Harden (0 of 11) and Starks (0 of 11). At the same time, 8 mistakes were the highest number of Jokic's single-game mistakes in his personal career. After the game, Jokic took the initiative to take responsibility and said bluntly: I am the worst player on the court today. Fortunately, although Jokic lost himself, he had four guardians around him: Westbrook, Porter Jr., Gordon and Murray! Westbrook played for 22 minutes on the bench, contributing 8 points, 4 assists and 2 steals, injecting vitality into the team on both ends of the offense and defense; Porter Jr., Gordon and Murray scored 20+, Porter Jr.'s indiscriminate pull, Murray's unsolved mid-range shot & trolley, and Gordon's tied three-pointer in regular periods, all of them are very delicious! Of course, Jokic completed self-salvation in overtime, scored 2 of 2, scored 4 points, 1 assist and 0 turnovers, and hit a throw-in that killed the game! This is the Nuggets. The championship background is still there. The fire is so powerful that it can collect juice at critical moments.
SGA also encountered the Nuggets' strict defense, and he focused on four-way + two-three-way defense to force SGA to make a ball or mid-range shot. He also lost himself! In this game, SGA played 44 minutes, made 7 of 22 shots (1 of 6 three-pointers), 3 of 5 free throws, and only scored 18 points + 13 rebounds + 7 assists + 2 steals. Like Jokic, Jaylenway, who is beside SGA, stepped forward to carry the offensive output, and the latter scored 32 points alone, setting a new record in a single-game scoring high in his personal playoff career. The difference is that SGA is invisible at a critical moment and does not even have the courage to save the team. In the entire fourth quarter and overtime, SGA scored only 3 points in 1 of the 8th, especially in overtime, all SGA data were 0! In a sense, the league's 1st overtime crash, and the SGA dish is original sin! After the game, SGA took the initiative to take responsibility. He said: I was unable to stand up to help the team when the pace slowed down in the final quarter, so that the victory slipped away. I must improve my ability to end the game! From G1 being beaten by Gordon to G3 overtime collapse, the Nuggets were taught one after another in the league, which also exposed the team's shortcomings in playing games at critical moments! According to statistics, the Thunder lost 16 games this season, and 10 games were lost at critical moments; on the other hand, they like to play critical moments too much. According to statistics, the Nuggets have won 6 and 4 losses so far in the playoffs, but the game has 4 wins and 0 losses at critical moments! I am looking forward to the Thunder's counterattack and adjustments. I also believe that Jokic and SGA will rebound, but the Thunder must not underestimate the Nuggets. I believe that they will still drag the game into the rhythm they like. Slow simmering on low heat and collecting juice on high heat is their way to win! Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
