Same rhythm of play, same loss pattern. If the G1 crash is because Jokic has no helpers around him, then G2 is completely the Warriors unilaterally crushing the Nuggets. The Nuggets are not without a chance, but this opportunity cannot be held. Since the opening 7-0 lead, the Nuggets have actually been the active side, always suppressing the Warriors' offense, allowing the Warriors to frantically chase points, the Nuggets are standing still, and even the bench is not worth the Warriors. But the real game point was the last five minutes or so of the second quarter, and the Warriors, like the second half of the second quarter of the G1 game, came up with a lineup of five small dead.
At this time, the Nuggets also led the Warriors by 8 points, and the Warriors put out the five-man team of Curry, Poole, Thompson, Wiggins, and Green! Then there was no more, and the Warriors completed the reversal from 8 points behind to 6 points ahead with a small half-ball, and the death five once again made a contribution. This wave of balls is actually the key to the whole game, and like the G1 game, the Nuggets are so behind last game. Is it the Warriors' death or the Nuggets can't cope with it? This death of the warrior five small things rely on two words: projection!
Curry, Poole and Thompson took turns shooting, taking turns scoring three-point goals, and that's how the Nuggets were thrown. But is it really just losing to the top three points? Otherwise, the Nuggets actually lost on the rhythm of attack and defense! The warriors put out the core of this lineup is not a projection, but a word: fast! Fast serve, fast running and rotation, the ball is thrown in front of the field, the play is very fast, the speed of the whole field is extremely fast, and the rhythm change is dizzying. But are the Nuggets a team that can play quick conversions? Yes, but not, because the Nuggets have a Jokic.
It doesn't matter if the Warriors run like this, three small men plus two forwards can rotate running positions indefinitely, but the Nuggets run like this. Jokic ran a round or two on top of a "pork belly" and it was fine, but running for five or six minutes in a row, not tired and tired, what was the final result of running? It was the Warriors who took the point to lead the way, from outside the three-point line to the box, and the Nuggets were all messed up. The Nuggets and the Warriors are faster than the Warriors' trap, the Warriors are not afraid to run with you, because the Warriors are accurate, the best three three-point shooters are here, as long as it is a wave of scoring rhythm, it will directly drive the overall situation, the Nuggets really have no to fight.
Why are the Nuggets an advantage in the previous quarter and a half? It is the position war, the advantage of kneading out little by little, the ball hits Jokic's hand, from the inside line to the outside line gradually play out the feeling, and the defensive Nuggets of the position war are not bad, the Warriors can not break the Nuggets' defense. But after playing such a wave of fast-paced balls, the Nuggets lost and couldn't find the North. In the third quarter, the Nuggets were bombarded by the continuous outside 3+1, and the game's point difference went directly to 20 points. Although the Nuggets' innings collapsed in the third quarter, the second quarter was already a bit of a decay under the Warriors' death five small attacks, and the loss was natural.
