Today's NBA playoffs continue, in which the Warriors at home ushered in the Challenge of the Nuggets, this game Curry continued to play as a substitute, the first half of the two teams played still difficult to solve, how to expect the third quarter of the Warriors consecutive hit three-pointers, a single quarter net win of 14 points directly took away the game victory, the score was finally fixed at 126-106, the series Warriors won a 2-0 lead, both games are big wins.
In this game, the Warriors can be described as a national soldier, Pooler had 29 points and 8 assists on 10-of-16, Thompson had 21 points and 2 rebounds on 9-of-19, Curry had 34 points and 4 assists on 12-of-17, and the three hit a total of 13 three-pointers, which was equal to the Nuggets.
In addition, according to statistics, Curry + Poole + Thompson + Wiggins + Dream Green's five small lineups, the game a total of 11 minutes, 100 rounds of scoring as high as 204.3 points, 100 rounds of points conceded as low as 75 points, each hundred rounds net victory over the opponent 129.3 points, it can be seen how terrible, the Nuggets simply can not prevent.
In contrast, the Nuggets, Jokic can be described as a single difficult to support, this game Jokic appeared in 28 minutes, 9 of 20 with 26 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists, in addition to the core of Barton, Morris and Hyland are 12 points, no one stepped forward to help Jokic. In the final quarter of the game, Jokic's mentality completely collapsed, roaring at the referee, accumulating two technical fouls and being expelled.
According to the data released by the US media, in the first two games of the playoffs, Jokic had a plus-minus of -45, the worst for the whole team. If the Nuggets can't make adjustments, even if they return to their home court in the next game, it may be difficult to beat the Warriors, and eventually face the embarrassing situation of being swept out. Last season, the Nuggets were swept by the Suns in the first round of the playoffs.
In terms of the current voting results, Jokic has a high probability of winning the MVP, but the team has been swept in the first round of the playoffs for two consecutive years, and Jokic is probably the most helpless MVP in NBA history. In the case that Murray and Porter Jr. could not play due to injury, the Nuggets' combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, and head coach Malone also had no way.
