Jokic made 0 of 10! Gordon tied with three-pointer! Nuggets beat Thunder

This round of the series was very fierce, but it was obvious that the Thunder was stronger. If the Nuggets wanted to win, they needed to do a lot of things to the extreme. In the

series G1, the Nuggets tied the score tightly and dragged to the last moment to complete the final victory with more experience.

The final kill at that time was really wonderful and typical: Westbrook restrained his desire to rebound and chose to take a fast break. He did not attack when he received the pass from his teammates, but instead used himself as bait to assist Gordon at the point with the highest hit rate, and made a final three-pointer in one go.

But as long as the Nuggets fail to do a good job, the whole team will collapse, and there will be a situation like G2's defeat of 43 points.

What is the key to victory for the Nuggets? flank.

The Nuggets' inside and back are actually not bad. Jokic is a superstar at the MVP level. Needless to say, Murray said that it is obviously not as big as Alexander, but he is also a first-tier star at the current service. With the mature Westbrook, he is not too disadvantaged.

The keys are the flanks, Porter Jr. and Braun.

Potter Jr. insisted on playing games with a serious shoulder injury, and even needed help from others to take off his clothes after the game. This matter has been talked about many times.

Only Porter, the attacker is not afraid, if he can't be attacked alone, just as Braun and Gordon can do it.

Just because he was afraid that Porter and Braun would be in a downturn, Gordon was helpless.

The Nuggets have made significant changes in this game today, and they finally waited for a Porter who contributed on the offensive end.

In the previous two Western Conference semi-finals, Porter Jr. made 3 of 18 shots in total, and made no contributions on both offense and defense. He mainly focused on top of the position and made some playing time.

Today, Porter Jr. made 5 of 6 shots in the first half, scoring 15 points and 2 rebounds, giving the Nuggets great support. The Thunder were also a little confused because they really wouldn't pay much attention to Porter Jr., but instead focused more defensive resources and attention on Jokic.

Jokic dragged the team a bit in the first half of today's game. He seemed really tired and was really lost in the Thunder's wheel battle.

Porter Jr. exploded in time, and with Westbrook's steal, the Nuggets overtook the Thunder when Jokic was off the court.

Thunder are actually a team with fluctuations in their mentality. They were too smooth in the regular season and the first round of the playoffs. They firmly believe that they can overcome any difficulties, but if there is a sudden unexpected point that they cannot solve - such as Porter Jr. today - they will quickly fall into self-doubt.

In the third quarter, Porter Jr. was still scoring a three-pointer, which was a bit unstoppable.

So you can see that Alexander missed two free throws, which is very rare. The

game is not that easy to end. The Thunder is still a team with stronger lineup thickness and absolute strength, but it is currently in the rhythm that the Nuggets like.

The old guys relied on their own experience to chisel with the young man one by one, and Westbrook finally scored a three-pointer in the fourth quarter.

Don't push quickly, keep a close eye on the score, and wait for the final decisive blow.

The last 4 minutes of the last quarter became a free throw battle again. Whenever Alexander or Williams of the Thunder worked hard to get points, the Nuggets would have Gordon or Murray attack the penalty area and have to get the free throw to tie the score.

This is the physical fitness that Porter, Braun and Westbrook have won for them.

But today's teacher Yoko was really too lazy. When he needed his scoring the most, Jokic missed the shots repeatedly.

This is Jokic's 10th three-pointer shot in this game, but he still failed to score, making 0 of 10 three-pointers. At the last moment of regular time, Gordon made another magical shot, and his three-pointer in the bottom corner helped the Nuggets to tie the game at 102.

But Jokic's final shot still failed, and the two teams entered overtime.

It’s okay, but fortunately, the teammates who made an appointment with the teacher today were very powerful, and even performed well.

In overtime, Murray forced a breakthrough and passed the ball, and Porter Jr. made another three-pointer, breaking the balance of the game. It can be said that Porter Jr. played a "Durante-style" game today.

Nuggets led by 7 points 109 to 102 in the last 2 minutes, which was their biggest lead today, and the Thunder were really confused.

In the end, the Nuggets defeated the Thunder 113-104 through overtime, leading 2-1.

Jokic scored 20 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists, 8 turnovers, Murray scored 27 points, 8 assists, Porter Jr. scored 21 points, 8 rebounds, Gordon scored 22 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, Westbrook scored 8 points, 4 assists, and Braun scored 8 points, 7 rebounds.

Williams scored 32 points and 5 assists, Alexander scored 18 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists, Homgren scored 18 points and 16 rebounds, and Hartenstein scored 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Nuggets still rotate 7 people, winning a difficult victory with extreme offensive and persistence.

also once again illustrates that the key points of the two teams are on the wing, at Porter Jr., at Gordon, and at Braun.

This round of series is far from over, so let's watch the Thunder again.
