Beijing time on January 17, the NBA regular season continues, today the West ushered in a focus war, the Nuggets sat at home to usher in the Jazz's challenge, before the game Nuggets coach Malone expressed dissatisfaction in an interview: "We face the Jazz four times this season, three games are back-to-back, the league is arranged very well", Malone's meaning is very clear, he is very dissatisfied with the league's arrangement, after all, it is a strong dialogue, back-to-back teams must be very tired, in addition, the Nuggets are also lacking major generals, facing the Jazz who are all playing today In the end, they also lost 102-125 to their opponents.
The Nuggets' starters tried their best, Jokic shot 10 of 18 from the field, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 25 points, 15 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals, facing the league's first gate Gobert, Joe teacher was as fearless, in his tandem Chinton scored 16 points and 4 assists, Aaron Gordon had 20 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists, Montmorris 13 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, but the Nuggets' bench was too weak, and the five substitutes scored a total of 24 points.
And the opponent's substitute Clarkson alone scored 16 points, in addition to Gay scored 7 points, Pascal 10 points, jazz bench scored a total of 36 points, after the game Malone also said: "When you have to quickly let the starters back on the court, this feeling is very bad", today's bench did not let the starter get enough playing time is the reason for the Nuggets' loss, in addition, the Jazz's starting lineup is also commendable, they resisted the Nuggets' offense.
Mitchell got 31 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, Bojan took 21 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists, Royce O'Neal scored 11 points and 3 rebounds, Gobert faced MVP about the teacher, his performance was not too much, 7 of 7 shots in the whole game took 18 points, 19 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, speaking of the league's pie king, it is estimated that among the pie centers, Gobert is the best, otherwise he could not have gotten a big contract of 200 million.
Gobert's improvement of the team is still very obvious, this battle his plus-minus is as high as the highest +36 in the game, he won 36 points when he was on the court, and in the past period of time because Gobert suffered the new crown missed five games, the team won 1 win and 4 losses, suffered 4 consecutive defeats, no Sir Gobert is simply judged by the two teams, the inside kill is gone, the top defense and protective frame are also gone.
Gobert is the boss and soul of this Jazz, because of his excellent performance before the Jazz can sit in the top three positions in the West, in this small-ball era, many of the interior lines have been transformed into a comprehensive direction, and some of the pie-eating centers are becoming the edge rotation of the team, but Gobert uses his own performance to justify the name of the pie-eating center, maybe the future interior line if the technology is bad can learn From Gobert and use defense to lead the team to win.
Gobert has always been underestimated, everyone is discussing embiid, Jokic who is more powerful, and when Towns played the league's "third" center level this season, perhaps Gobert is the best candidate for the league's top three levels of center, one person to support a set of defensive system, such a person is really rare, looking at the entire 21st century can do in addition to Duncan, that is, Howard has this ability.
And it is worth mentioning that the Nuggets selected Gobert and was eventually traded to the Jazz, but fortunately they got Jokic after that, otherwise it would be enough to regret, speaking of which, what do you want to say about this game? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
