He actually lost the game by 44+15! Whoever pays attention to Jokic s expression? It s really tiring to breathe heavily

On May 14, the NBA playoffs continued, with the Thunder defeating the Nuggets 112-105 at home, leading 3-2. This is a battle between Tianwang Mountain. The two teams are still very fierce. The Nuggets once took the initiative on the field. Unfortunately, in the final quarter, their physical fitness began to decline, and their offensive feel decreased. The Thunder seized the opportunity. Alexander directly killed the game with three-pointer, helping the team win a key victory.

After the first game of the series, Jokic's shooting percentage in the past three games was less than 40%. This time he successfully regained his touch, scoring points in and out, helping the team take the initiative. But in the last quarter, all the teammates around Jokic were silent and could only rely on him to support him. As the Thunder bloomed more, Jokic was unable to make the situation come true. The Nuggets only scored 19 points in the final quarter, while Jokic took charge of 13 of them.

Jokic really tried his best in this game. When his teammates felt bad, he could only take on the offensive responsibility more. He played for 44 minutes in the game, made 17 of 25 shots, 5 of 7 three-pointers, 5 of 5 free throws, scored the highest 44 points in the game, and had 15 rebounds and 5 assists, but this still cannot help the team win the game. This is the seventh time in Jokic's playoff career that he has 40+ in a single game. In these 7 games, the Nuggets have only won 2 wins and 5 losses. It seems that Jokic's high score is not the key to the team's victory.

After the game, who noticed Jokic's expression, lowered his head as soon as possible, then gasped and slowly walked towards the locker room passage. Jokic really gave all his money in this game and gave everything. He really wanted to help the team win the game, but unfortunately he didn't stand it in the final quarter and missed the opportunity to get the match point first. In Jokic's previous career, he won all six battles in the King of Heaven, but unfortunately he suffered his first defeat on the 7th time and failed to continue the unbeaten record.

Jokic is already the only one in the active league, and is really very comprehensive. Faced with the continuous consumption of the Thunder, he can still find a way to score. Now that the Nuggets are in a desperate situation, they must win the next game when they return to their home court. Only in this way can they drag the series into the tiebreak. However, this time, other players need to stand up. Jokic alone is not enough.
