G5 Nuggets lost to the Thunder 105-112, four bad news after the game

G5 in the second round of the NBA playoffs, the Nuggets lost to the Thunder 105-112. In this game, the Nuggets collapsed in the final quarter, which eventually led to their defeat to the Thunder. The Nuggets encountered four bad news after the game.

Their physical fitness problems are already very obvious. Once the final quarter comes, their physical fitness will decline, their shooting percentage will decline, and their defensive aggressiveness will also decline, which will completely hinder the team's performance. Especially Jokic, who had almost no strength at the last moment, scored a magical three-pointer and a basket, and had no other performance. There is no way. The Nuggets have few rotations and the tight schedule, which puts too much pressure on the Nuggets. The defense in the last quarter was also a mess. Let Murray, Brian and Jokic double-team, the final result is that the opponent can crazily call Jokic. This will not only consume his physical fitness, but also in the event of too many fouls, Jokic dares not over-defense, so the opponent can continue to get open opportunities and there is no barrier guarding in the inside. In addition to this defensive strategy, Westbrook was defeated in the last quarter, resulting in Dort making consecutive three-pointers. Westbrook's bonus to the Nuggets on the defensive end is very large.

Potter's performance was also a mess. As a main rotation, he actually made a failure. With 1 of 7 shots in the whole game, the Nuggets' joint defense was broken by his own efforts in the last quarter. In other words, Porter Jr. can't do offense or defense. Even if he is fighting with injuries, he can't see his performance on the court. If he doesn't go wild with G6, the Nuggets' offensive and defensive pressure will be very high.

What's more fatal is that no other player can help except Jokic in the final quarter. Because other players scored one goal, the final result was 5 of 21 shots in the last quarter and 1 of 12 shots in the third quarter was only 8%. How can you play against your opponent? If even the teammates can't stand up in the end, this round of the series will really be explained.
