Although the Lakers tried their best, they were finally eliminated by a narrow margin of 106-108. This game is not only a contest of skills, but also a contest of will, and of course, that incredible individual performance!
First of all, I have to talk about the thick eyebrows, he really fought hard, with 17 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists. This statistic looks good, but every fan knows that the performance of the Thick Eyebrows tonight is much more than these numbers. Every defensive transition he made on the court, every rush to grab a rebound, showed his hunger for victory. Especially in the last minutes of the game, he almost became the savior of the Lakers, scoring hard under the basket again and again, or blocking at critical moments.
However, the balance of the game ultimately tipped in favor of the big man from the Nuggets – Jokic. The big man's performance tonight can be described as "supergod", with a terrifying stats of 25 points, 20 rebounds and 9 assists throughout the game. In fact, watching him play ball is like watching a giant play in a children's park, so relaxed and comfortable. His passing, like that of a magician, often finds open teammates at impossible angles. Moreover, his rebounding, it's like a magnet, where there's the ball, there's him.
The climax of the game came in the final quarter. The Lakers took the lead near the end of the game, and the atmosphere on the court was almost suffocating. The cries of the audience seem to be able to lift the roof. But the Nuggets didn't give up, especially Jokic, who scored seven points in a row in the last three minutes and almost single-handedly sealed the country. On the Lakers' side, although the thick eyebrows and his teammates fought back desperately, in the end there was not enough time.
This game is not only a contest of points, but also a contest of psychology. You look at every look on that scene, every physical collision, revealing an indescribable tension and intensity. The fans were immersed in every moment, every round of fierce battles, and they couldn't extricate themselves at all.
In short, although this game is over and the Lakers are eliminated, the spirit and fighting attitude shown by each player are worth learning from each of us. I have to say that this kind of game is the charm of basketball, not only the technical competition, but also the psychological confrontation, as well as those exciting moments.
Speaking of which, you say, can such a competition not make people excited? Can it not make people have an endless aftertaste? The answer is obvious. Looking forward to the next game and looking forward to more exciting moments!
