125-118, the Denver Nuggets at Cambridge Arena had a thrilling victory over the Indiana Pacers, rewriting their record to 46-31, surpassing the recent five-game losing streak of the Utah Jazz to fifth in the West.
In this campaign, the Nuggets almost overturned by the home team in the first quarter when they blasted 43 points and only let the opponent get 15 points and lead by 31 points at most - but the gap between the strength of the two sides is visible to the naked eye, no matter how hard you Hield and Halliburton work hard, it will eventually fall short, because the Nuggets have Nikola Jokic sitting on this side, and the gold content of the MVP in the regular season is understood?
How exaggerated is the performance of The Teacher of The Covenant? 15 shots in 19 shots, shooting 78.9%, 0 shots outside the three-point line, still hard chiseled 37 points, 13 rebounds and 9 assists, only one assist can harvest the 20th triple-double of the season. When Miles Turner, who could theoretically limit it slightly, chose to reimburse the season, no one on the Pacers could stop Mr. Yo, and the "human pork belly essence" from Serbia gave and demanded in the paint district of Indyê, rampaged, and shot inside and out, playing a trick called a fluttering snow and a dancing pear blossom.
In the fourth quarter of the game, in the first quarter, the second quarter and the last quarter, Mr. Jo played a jaw-dropping 100 percent shooting rate, which simply did not treat the Pacers' defenders as human beings, as if they were in no man's land. With such dominance and the ability of stars to solve hard, does anyone question Jokic's ability to fight a hard battle?
What's even more terrifying is that such a shooting rate has been normalized by Jokic, who has hit 16 goals in 61 shots in the last 4 games, with a shooting rate of 75.4%, far higher than the season average of 57.6% (even the season average is also ranked seventh in the league, ranking ahead of him, all of which are big people eating cakes). Such a huge improvement comes from the change in Mr. Yo's attitude, in the last 4 games, Mr. Yo has only shot 3 times outside the three-point line, and two games have not even shot on the outside.
At the end of the regular season, the showdown with Teacher Yo, who is determined to lead the team to a better ranking and away from the threat of play-offs, is over! What personal offensive desire is not strong, like to build a bow on the outside line is an illusion, as long as he wants, in the three-second zone to call the wind and rain is a routine operation. Interestingly, in the previous interview, when asked whether he planned to impact the MVP of Lianzhuang, Mr. Yo denied it, admitting that he only wanted to lead the team to play a good result so hard, and did not think much about it, which was in stark contrast to the direct competitor Embiid's statement that he wanted to compete for the MVP.
But the selection of the most valuable player is ultimately based on strength, not on the subjective will of the candidate. Judging from the recent performance, the Dengdi combination has ups and downs, and the emperor has declined in both the MVP and the competitiveness of the scoring king, but the more courageous the teacher is, the more courageous he is, and the trend of dominating the mountains and small mountains is large, after all, compared with the emperor's shooting rate of less than 50% of the internal line, the performance of the teacher about the recent repeated anti-heaven hit rate is more convincing.
Pacers coach and championship coach Carlisle was pleased with Jokic's performance: "Jokic redefines the position of center. He's a beast, a killer, just superficially nice, but on the field he's a competitive killer. "Therefore, do not be deceived by the harmless and non-contentious surface of Teacher Jo, his actions are real!
In the direct dialogue between the two best five positions of this era, the balance has slowly tilted to Mr. Yo, as long as the Nuggets' final closing stage record can remain in the top five in the West, I believe that the probability of Yo Teacher Lianzhuang's regular season Most Valuable Player will be nine out of ten. Coach Ma Long, who hopes to be good at playing chess, will stop being the behind-the-scenes manipulator of the western pattern this time, and fight hard for the honor of his disciples. Jokic or Embiid? Who are you more optimistic about?
