James, who frantically cut 31 points in the first half, finally had to accept the fact of declining fitness in the second half, missing all two key shots, and missing the equalizing layup, and the Lakers were swept out 4-0.
The Nuggets really didn't give the league and the referee any face, and in the last minute of our first half, when we were about to get up, the referee blew four fouls in a row, plus a technical foul by the head coach, Jokic was blown two fouls in a row in just 30 seconds, plus the last five minutes or so of the fourth quarter, and two consecutive offensive fouls on Jokic. It is no exaggeration to say that the referee's performance in this game is even lower than the previous game, and he has really tried his best, and he has pulled down his old face with all his strength, especially the No. 58 referee can say that he doesn't want his face.
As a result, the Nuggets still completed a big comeback in the end, holding the final victory of the game and directly sweeping the Lakers 4-0. You must know that this is the Western Conference Finals, the Lakers are not the same internal contradictions and open conflicts as the Green Army, not only united, but also have the whistle blessing of two superstars and referees. The result was a 4-0 sweep, and after seeing the Lakers being swept, I found that Durant was really strong, and he and Booker won two games with pure personal ability, at least not swept out.
Jokic is really strong, especially since the last goal scored in today's game is very valuable, and the thick eyebrows have played well enough, but they still can't limit Jokic's play. It seems that the one who scolded Ayton at the beginning was indeed too ruthless, and even a giant like thick eyebrows couldn't take Jokic, let alone mention Ayton's clean center. It is also necessary to ask whether the Suns are too hasty to the management to dismiss the employer coach, not because the head coach is incompetent, but because Jokic is too versatile to really be stopped.
Instead of solving the employer coach, it is better to trade Ayton for an outside three-pointer who can defend and shoot, so that he may be able to play the Nuggets next season.
