Thunder defeated the Nuggets and won the King of Heaven, Alexander proved himself at a critical moment

This game is more time like the Nuggets are going to win.

They had the advantage of rebounding and locked the Thunder's offense with joint defense, allowing the latter's pass to make more time to transfer the ball in a small way between the free throw line-on-line-bottom corner areas, unable to destroy the formation, nor to make up a good opportunity. With rebounds and steals to harvest conversions and second attack, Jokic played the production, and Murray was also a normal version in the first three quarters, until the middle of the fourth quarter, the game didn't look like he was going to lose - even if they made a poor three-point shot in this game.

At that time, SGA was unable to dominate the attack. He passed the ball repeatedly at the free throw line like his former trading partner Paul George. Daignot also insisted on long rotations and did not really pull the core five-man + Caruso. This series seemed to leave a handle for public opinion to torture after the game.

People believe in stars who can take action at critical moments, and believe in the main players who can get full of key games, but physical fitness, as a grass snake gray line, stood up to remind the Nuggets - the so-called "can always squeeze out physical strength and win the key ball" is a narrative that only exists in the comics, and is an idealism that people love their spiritual power. There is always an end in the real game.

When the body cannot hold on, willpower will lead you out of the siege, but if the body cannot hold on at all, willpower will also crash, because it will be a problem with neurons in the end.

In the stage when Dort Bangbang's nearly three-pointer, the Nuggets have actually stopped scoring the goal at all. Although we have always said that the Thunder's outside shooting is a bluffing element, if you don't score, you are betting on it. If you bet on the opponent's goal in this game, you should be unlucky.

And why not score a goal? On the one hand, Murray's physical fitness cannot withstand it - whether the physical exhaustion is a relative situation. Maybe Murray will be enough to play the Lakers in the fourth quarter, but the Thunder's defensive scale and rotation speed are faster, so this physical fitness is not enough - on the other hand, Westbrook and Porter pull through at the same time, and neither of them can respond or impact at all, so the Nuggets' already tight physical fitness is even less enough.

Westbrook was not involved in three consecutive games in the fourth quarter, but he still had the opportunity, because the Thunder just let this point go and suppress Jokic's production. He couldn't respond at this time. In addition, Murray was exhausted, the Nuggets really had no choice. In the games they could win before, Westbrook had some output, and the Nuggets really couldn't lack any output.

As for the Thunder, Sga suddenly slashed, but the impression was still not good enough. In the stage when the Thunder really chased the points, his degree of departure from the offense was too terrifying. This is not explained by a strategy of "waiting for the opponent's physical strength to explode". In the end, the Nuggets' physical strength completely exploded and started scoring, which means a little saving the praise of this game.

But no matter what, scoring is scoring, and being able to make progress means being better than not. The answer to the main attacker of SGA playoffs is a little step forward.

The two consecutive games with small scores were not won, which is definitely not good news for the Denver people. Their hope is still there, but it is quite troublesome. The rotation is so short, and Porter is injured again. He can still gain an advantage when he pulls the main players, but it is unlikely to have a wave of blows. As the series deepens, the physical fitness will only become tighter and tighter, and it will become increasingly difficult to maintain the advantage.

Who can they expect to callback? Jokic and Murray are almost over, so we can't really look back and expect Westbrook to shoot in the first round.

As for the Thunder, winning this round of series is what they should do, and being able to win the Nuggets in the critical ball stage - no matter what the process is - is also some responses to their doubts. The team's problems are always there, but this year is really a year of "a bad match". Any team has the reason to lose, "Look, I'll say XXX can't win." The Thunder is the best regular season record among these people, and it depends on how far they can go.
