With a score of 106-99, the Timberwolves subdued the opponent at the Nuggets' doorstep! This game, I have to say, was the real "night of explosions". Huazi (Anthony Edwards) is like a bomb on the court, exploding at any time, and finally slashed 43 points, plus 7 rebounds and 3 assists, which is simply blinding everyone's eyes!
Soon after the game started, the Nuggets seemed to have the initiative, and you can see their coordination, that movement, it was almost as elegant as a waltz. But who knows, the Timberwolves' Huazi is in the mood to turn the tables today. In the first quarter of the game, he showed his unique charm and scored consecutive points, so that Nuggets fans had to swallow their saliva secretly.
Entering the second quarter, the Nuggets' big man Jokic began to exert his strength, and his flexible wrists and skillful skills were almost as precise as if he were performing surgery. He finished the game with 32 points, eight rebounds and nine assists, and was arguably the heart of the Nuggets' offense and defense. But even so, Huazi in front of him was in a posture of "whoever comes, I will cut whom", and he didn't take the opponent in his eyes at all.
In the second half, the suspense of the game began to intensify. The Timberwolves gradually found a breakthrough, especially in the fourth quarter, Huazi was simply open, scoring consecutive points, and once helped the Timberwolves establish a double-digit lead. Although the Nuggets are trying to chase points, the Timberwolves' defense is also quite good.
Especially in the last 3 minutes of the game, you can see Huazi's two free throws, which simply ended the game. The Nuggets will struggle to reverse the defeat no matter what. The audience on the sidelines was already cheering at this time, especially the Timberwolves fans, who were about to fly into the sky!
Looking back on this game, I have to say that Huazi's all-out performance is really shocking. Not only did he kill all sides on the offensive end, but he also didn't relax in the defensive moments and frequently caused problems for the opponent. Although Jokic's personal data is also gorgeous, basketball is a five-a-side sport after all, and what is needed is the overall tacit understanding and coordination, which is what the Nuggets lack in this game.
Summing up the game, it can be seen that the victory of the Timberwolves was not accidental, they not only did their homework strategically, but also did their best mentally and physically. This is a rethinkable outcome for the Nuggets, who need to focus more on teamwork and tactical flexibility in future games.
This game is not only a showdown between Huazi and Jokic, but also a contest of teamwork and individual heroism. The results have made it clear that on the basketball court, no one can win alone. The Timberwolves' victory was the result of team effort and a testament to the proper use of strategy.
