On March 25, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued, the Suns challenged the Nuggets away, this battle, Paul ushered in a comeback, the end of the regular season, the Suns with a healthy lineup to meet the new challenge. After the whole game, the two teams played more glue on the score, both played an efficient offense, and in the key fourth quarter, the Suns showed their old and spicy nature, successfully winning the game 140-130, locking in the league first in advance.
After a game, the two teams played about 60% of the shooting rate, not that the two teams' defense is not good, but their offense is too efficient, if there is any regret, the Nuggets in the mistake became the only defeat in today's game, 16 mistakes, Jokic alone got 8 times, which is also the key to the loss of this game. Throughout the game, the Suns scored 30 points based on just turnovers, while the Nuggets had just 9 points.
But we must praise the resilience of the Nuggets, in the absence of two main players in the team, but also with the Suns to the end, it is indeed unexpected by Xiao Feng, of course, all this is due to the excellent performance of the substitutes, especially under the leadership of Hyland, the Nuggets bench completely suppressed the firepower of the Suns bench, the Nuggets side of the 7 people scored in double figures, and the Suns side almost meant, in addition to the starters, the substitute players did not perform too well, and no one scored in double figures.
Even in the face of Booker's efficient statistics, the Nuggets were not in the ascendancy, and even at the end of the third quarter, they were still in a weak lead, why did the Nuggets lose in the end? In addition to the mistakes, in fact, the team lacks a stable scoring point, whether it is Porter Jr. or Murray, they can not play, the impact on the Nuggets is still very large, after the Nuggets lost today, they are only one win away from the seventh Timberwolves, the prospects are not optimistic, and Jokic seems to need to take on more important responsibilities, just like today's game, Jokic only shot 10 times, such a play is obviously not enough to win.
In addition to the game, Booker and Jokic's MVP competition is the biggest highlight of this game, the whole game down, Booker got 49 points, 4 rebounds and 10 assists, cut a new season high, a game let the MVP competition increase suspense, Jokic as the only player this season can score, rebound, assist all the top ten players, has his own superiority, this game in only 10 shots to get 28 points, has shown the MVP true color, unfortunately, The Nuggets' record does not have an advantage, and perhaps this is the biggest factor restricting Jokic.
On the other hand, On Booker's side, a game completely subdued the away fans, not only allowing the fans to chant MVP on the road, but also winning the affirmation of many players, Irving personally tweeted: Booker is the MVP! Of course, in Xiao Feng's view, the bonus of MVP is important to Booker, but what he really cares about should be the championship, last season's failure made them lie down for a year, and this season they showed stronger strength.
Now that the Suns have locked up the league's number one spot, the next thing for them is to take a good rest and recharge for the playoffs. I don't know what you think of seeing such a perfect Sun team? Welcome to leave a message.
